Wang Cangshu knelt down and promised that he would never look for Lu Qing again and would pretend not to know him when they met. Only then did his mother's anger subside.
Mrs. Du thought her son was obsessed with Lu Qing because he was eighteen years old and had never touched a woman. In order to completely dispel his thoughts about Lu Qing, she arranged a marriage for him.
Because Du Shi said that she was taking her in as a concubine for her son, so even though she knew her son might have a promising future, she was reluctant to give her legitimate daughter to him as a concubine. In the end, a concubine's daughter from a wealthy family was promised to him.
Mrs. Du was not very satisfied with the girl because of her delicate skin and tender flesh, and it was obvious that she was not very good at work. However, her son liked her and had to take her in.
As soon as she entered the house, Mrs. Du wanted to train and teach her, and let her do all kinds of work. The girl originally wanted to please her mother-in-law, but Mrs. Du had high requirements and too many things to do, so the girl couldn't stand it, so she perfunctorily tried to please Wang Cangshu.
Because she is a concubine's daughter, she is good at observing people's words and expressions and can please men, so she is deeply loved by Wang Cangshu.
So, Wang Cangshu was caught between his concubine and his mother, and was in a dilemma.
In the end, Mrs. Du threatened to commit suicide, and Wang Cangshu had no choice but to stand on his mother's side.
The concubine could only swallow her anger and endure until the imperial examination next year.
It may be that Wang Cangshu was always involved in the conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and he couldn't study properly for most of half a year. He even failed to pass the examination to become a scholar!
His mother said outside that he was a top scholar, but in the end he didn't even pass the exam and became a laughing stock in the whole neighborhood.
That’s not all. When he got home, he discovered that the concubine had swept away the family’s remaining wealth and ran away with another man!
Wang Cangshu felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
After hearing this, Tang Li and Lu Qing felt gloating.
When Ma heard this, she was once again thankful that she did not marry her daughter to Wang Cangshu.
Of course, this is all in the past.
…
The end of the year is approaching and everything is busy.
The same is true for the Xie Mansion.
Wei Qing, the security guard, also had to follow Mr. Xie around, visiting relatives and friends, and attending various calligraphy and painting exhibitions and auctions.
Moreover, Miss Xie is also very good at finding trouble.
Today the pet is missing, tomorrow the jade pendant is lost, and every time, Wei Qing is assigned to find it for her.
Due to her status as a young lady, Wei Qing could only help to look for her.
Every time she found him, Miss Xie would give him something to thank him.
Wei Qing naturally refused to accept it. Miss Xie just said that it was not valuable. Upon hearing that it was not valuable, Wei Qing gave it to Lei Ming, Lei Bao and the others.
Xie Fangfei watched as the things she had carefully selected appeared on other people: ...
The more Wei Qing refused, the more competitive Xie Fangfei became. She even cooked the food herself and wanted to deliver it to Wei Qing personally.
You know, when he was in Beijing, no nobleman had such treatment! It was a bargain for a country boy like him!
When she gets this wild man down, she will definitely make him kneel at her feet and be her lapdog!
Xie Fangfei saw the man from a distance.
The man was standing against a tree. He had a tall and strong figure, a handsome and angular face, and his honey-colored skin only added to his masculinity.
He was talking to several other security guards in a very rude manner, and his brutality made people blush.
Xie Fangfei walked up to Wei Qing and looked at him shyly.
"Commander Wei, so you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time and my feet are sore." Xie Fangfei said coquettishly.
Her shy and timid trick was the most effective, and when the men saw it, they would quickly comfort her in a soft voice.
Wei Qing said, "Miss Xie, do you want to talk to me about something? Why don't you let the servants do it? Doesn't Miss Xie deserve it? Hahaha!"
After saying that, he burst into laughter, as if laughing at her stupidity.
The man next to him also laughed.
Xie Fangfei: ...
"Commander Wei, thank you for helping me find the jade pendant yesterday. The jade pendant was left to me by my mother and it is very important. This is the food box I made specially for you." After saying that, he handed it to Wei Qing.
Wei Qing didn't answer.
"I just finished eating. If you give me more, I can't finish it. Isn't it a waste?"
Xie Fangfei: ...
Is the point to eat? This wood!
"This is a gift from me, Commander Wei, you must accept it!" Xie Fangfei put it down and ran away.
She didn't run away, but hid behind the wall and watched.
Wei Qing was not interested in the food box, but the man next to him had already opened it out of curiosity.
"Wow, boss, look, Miss Xie is really skillful. The presentation of these dishes is so beautiful." The man exclaimed.
Wei Qing glanced at it and wasn't very interested: "It looks good but it's not very filling. If you like it, eat it!"
"Boss, you really don't want it? It smells so good." The man was ready to go.
"Who is so ignorant as you? What my wife makes is a hundred times more delicious than this!" Wei Qing's tone unconsciously carried a bit of pride.
The man didn't hesitate any longer, picked up the food box, and ate heartily, finishing it in no time.
"Boss, you make sense. I didn't feel anything after eating it. It really looks good but doesn't fill me up."
Xie Fangfei: ...
Xie Fangfei was so angry that her fair little face turned red, and she looked a little ferocious.
She knew that Wei Qing had a wife, but she didn't take it to heart.
She must get what she likes, no matter whether it has an owner or not.
What's more, his wife was probably just a rough woman from the countryside. She never took him seriously and didn't consider her as her opponent at all.
However, Wei Qing kept saying this over and over again, and she was really curious about what his wife looked like.
…
Tangli is also very busy.
After finally squeezing out a day, I bought some rice and meat, and set off for Lijia Village with my two babies and Aunt Zhao.
Firstly, she wanted to check on the injured villagers and see how they were doing. Second, she wanted to send some gifts so that everyone could have a good New Year.
Tangli chartered two ox carts, one for people and one for things, and went to Lijia Village in a grand manner.
Before reaching the village entrance, I met many villagers. They were all very happy to see Tangli.
"Sister Wei, is that Sister Wei?"
"Yes, Sister Wei is back!"
Some children ran towards the village, shouting as they ran.
Therefore, when Tangli's ox cart arrived at the entrance of the village, a group of people had already gathered at the door, young and old, and there were also several people who were recovering from injuries.
Tang Li asked about their injuries one by one.
"Sister Wei, thanks to your medicine and Doctor Su's medical skills, I can lift things with my hand now, but I can't do heavy work. Doctor Su said that by next spring, I'll be able to walk again!"
"Sister Wei, my wounds have healed and I can touch water now!"
"Sister-in-law Wei, I'm feeling much better now..."
Everyone rushed to speak, their faces filled with joy.
"Okay. Everyone, I brought some things. Later, one household each will come to the medicine capsule factory to get some things for the New Year!" Tang Li said.
"Okay, Sister Wei!"
"That's great! I thought we would be eating sweet potatoes again this New Year."
"I'll tell my mother right away!"
"Everyone, make way and let Sister Wei pass!"
Everyone quickly made way for the ox cart, which continued to move forward to the medicine sachet factory.
Behind her, a large group of villagers followed like a long tail.
