Chapter 146 Private Talk

Jiang Yuzhu returned to Xie's house, and the Jiang family was still anxiously waiting for news.

Chen walked quickly forward and first looked at the hem of Jiang Yuzhu's skirt. Seeing that there was no dust, she then showed a satisfied look to Xie Zhao.

All along, Chen had been indifferent to marrying into the Xie family. However, after Xie Zhao fulfilled his promise several times, Chen began to look at this son-in-law differently.

Jiang Yuzhu saw that her family was worried, so she pretended to be relaxed and said, "Mom, the problem has been solved."

After receiving several secret messages in succession, Jiang Yuzhu believed 90% of them and only needed to check them.

In the next two days, she planned to go back to the Jiang family to discuss things with her parents and brother.

If the Queen Mother uses this method of both kindness and force to threaten the Jiang family, Daddy will become worried and confused and easily be led into a mud pit.

By clarifying the facts in advance, the Jiang family can be prepared.

Xie Zhao observed the man's expression and understood clearly that since his wife knew the truth, it would surely reach Jiang Fulu's ears within two days.

Rather than waiting for Jiang Yuzhu to pass on the message, it would be better for Xie Zhao to tell the truth first to avoid being picked on by Jiang Fulu.

"Father-in-law, can I have a word with you for a moment?"

Xie Zhao made a gesture of invitation and led Jiang Fulu to the study to chat.

In the guest room of the Xie Mansion, Shen Zhilan stood by the window in a daze, and unknowingly, the night had fallen.

The maid Xia'er came trotting over, holding a lantern.

Before entering the door, Shen Zhilan couldn't wait to speak: "Cousin and cousin are back?"

Upon learning that Jiang Yuzhu had offended the Xuan family for Xie Xuan, Shen Zhilan could do nothing but worry.

In her previous life, Shen Zhilan was just a woman in the harem. She had been fighting with her bad husband and concubine's sister all her life, and knew almost nothing about the changes in the imperial court in the capital.

However, two things caused a sensation and Shen Zhilan was deeply impressed.

After the Queen Mother passed away, the entire Xuan family, her maternal clan, was executed. Another major event was that the entire Mo family died in a strange fire.

After being reborn, Shen Zhilan no longer wants to live in a muddle-headed way.

"Xia'er, take me to the front yard."

Putting on her coat, Shen Zhilan looked hurried.

Xia Er poured a cup of hot tea and pointed at the red lantern hanging in the room: "Miss, tomorrow is your big day, please don't make any trouble!"

Since getting the news, Xia'er ran back and forth more than ten times and almost broke her legs.

Shen Zhilan blushed and turned to go into the inner room.

Her aunt said that her cousin's wife would come to talk to her tonight and teach her about human affairs.

She still remembered that on the eve of her wedding in her previous life, her mother was extremely disappointed with her and only sent her trusted maid to bring her a pornographic book.

Shen Zhilan was like a walking corpse and endured a sleepless night.

"Miss, please wait for a moment. I will go to the kitchen to check the dishes with the steward."

Xia'er was holding an account book, muttering something, and coming and going in a hurry.

Soon, with a creak, the door opened and cool breeze rushed in.

Shen Zhilan came back to her senses and asked with a smile, "Is my cousin's wife here?"

After a long while, there was no response.

Mo Qianyu entered the inner room awkwardly in a black suit. He sat down on a chair, crossed his legs and said in a casual manner, "Jiang Yuzhu is not here, so I am here."

There were constant thunders in the palace tonight, and the Queen Mother's bedroom was struck by lightning.

Mo Qianyu couldn't sit still and ran to Xie's house to inquire about the news. He took out an oil-paper bag from his arms and threw it on the table, saying stiffly: "I heard that the bride would starve for a day to show off her figure. I'll bring you some food. You can have a full meal in peace."

Thinking of the hatred between the two in the previous life, and Mo Qianyu's narcissism and recklessness, Shen Zhilan said coldly: "General Mo, there are no rules in the eyes of the Mo family?"

Before marriage, men and women cannot see each other.

Mo Qianyu "strolled" to Xie's house in the middle of the night dressed in black. It was unclear what his purpose was, but he had to use the excuse of delivering food.

Shen Zhilan angrily retorted: "It's not the last meal before execution, there's no need to eat too much."

Instead, it was Mo Qianyu's sudden appearance in the middle of the night that gave her a scare.

Mo Qianyu was already tangled, and was mocked by Shen Zhilan, so angry that she jumped up and said, "Shen Zhilan, you don't know what's good for you!"

"Mo Qianyu, even if you are a martial artist, I am not afraid of you!"

Shen Zhilan looked at the feather duster covered with red silk in the corner, puffed up her cheeks, and felt relieved.

The two of them were arguing with each other, and suddenly a light laugh was heard in the yard.

Mo Qianyu was distracted when the person who came had already arrived at the door.

Shen Zhilan was extremely frantic. She looked around and hurriedly pushed Mo Qianyu into the inner room.

She wanted to push him onto the bed and hang the bed curtains, but she felt it was inappropriate, so she pointed under the bed and said, "Hide!"

"What a joke! I haven't done anything wrong!"

Mo Qianyu resisted verbally, but his body was very honest.

As soon as Jiang Yuzhu entered the room, Mo Qianyu had disappeared beside the bed.

Shen Zhilan felt that it was not safe enough, so she stretched her leg into the gap between the beds to test. Mo Qianyu under the bed moved inwards, feeling aggrieved and regretful. He should not have come!

In the room, bright red wedding candles were burning.

Jiang Yuzhu dismissed the maid and went into the room with Zhao Fendie.

Jiang Yuzhu has a wealth of theoretical knowledge about matters between men and women, but her practical experience is limited to hugging and cuddling.

Finally, Jiang Yuzhu asked her good sister Zhao Fendie to teach together.

When it comes to matters between men and women, it is better to be clearer so as to avoid taking detours.

Zhao Fendie was sharp-eyed. She saw the chicken wrapped in oil paper on the table and said, "Zhilan, if you're hungry, just eat two pieces of cake. It's not good to eat greasy food at night."

In the capital city, the requirements for brides are very strict.

"This roasted chicken has a strong taste. It makes me thirsty. I won't be able to go to the toilet for at least a few hours tonight and tomorrow night."

Before getting married, Zhao Fendie suffered a loss. She ate too much that night and had a stomachache on her wedding day. She felt very uncomfortable.

Shen Zhilan agreed with this and said meaningfully, "It might have been sent by a servant who didn't know the rules."

His kindness was taken for granted, and Mo Qianyu curled up under the bed, feeling even more depressed.

Three women are performing a drama, talking non-stop.

In the past, when Mo Qianyu encountered such a situation, he wanted to disappear on the spot, but tonight he stayed patiently, just wanting to find some small handle that Jiang Yuzhu said bad things about him behind his back.

Jiang Yuzhu was completely unaware of the extra person in the room. She opened the small package and said, "Cousin, keep this banknote. It will come in handy someday."

At any time, silver represents confidence.

The peony headdress she was creating was intercepted, and Jiang Yuzhu generously gave Shen Zhilan five thousand taels of silver notes for protection.

Shen Zhilan's eyelids twitched wildly, and she felt the banknotes were hot. She refused and said, "Cousin, this is too much silver!"

When a noble family in the capital city marries off their daughter, those who value their daughters may not necessarily give so much.

Shen had already given money to Shen Zhilan, and she didn’t have the face to ask for money from her cousin’s wife again.

Thinking back to the inappropriate thoughts she had after her rebirth, Shen Zhilan just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She always felt ashamed towards her cousin Jiang Yuzhu.

Zhao Fendie hurriedly advised: "Sister Zhilan, please keep it. The jade bead must be given from the heart."

Sisters get along with each other with sincerity and never let each other down. In Zhao Fendie's eyes, real sisters are sometimes more reliable than men.

Chen Zhilan thought it made sense, and she wasn't the type to be shy, so she accepted it readily and said, "Cousin, I'll take it. I just hope my husband's family won't think about this little treasure of mine."

Eavesdropping under the bed, Mo Qianyu was once again implied: "..."

The room fell into a brief silence.

Jiang Yuzhu thought about how to start, and found it difficult to introduce the topic abruptly. She stuffed a bottle of ointment into Shen Zhilan's hand: "Cousin, this medicine has the effect of reducing swelling and relieving pain. It feels cool when applied. You should be able to use it."

Shen Zhilan understood instantly, and her brain was shocked and she was confused.

Zhao Fendie simply said bluntly: "General Mo is a rough man. I asked around when I was staying at the Mo family. He lives in the camp in the north of the city all year round. Even the mouse in the room is a male. It's probably a chick."

The young boy had no experience and rushed forward recklessly, using only brute force. Shen Zhilan could not avoid it.

Mo·Rough Man·Qianyu was struck by lightning and felt humiliated! After getting away, he would go to his good brother Xie Zhao for advice and he would definitely get back at the wedding night!
