Qin Wan snuggled tightly in Lu Yu's arms, feeling the warmth coming from him. A hint of doubt welled up in her heart, and she asked softly:
"Mr. Chen's eldest son is unaware of these matters. Will Widow Wang's affairs affect his future?"
Lu Yu nodded without hesitation and answered firmly, "This is inevitable! Not only will it affect the eldest son's future, but even his father-in-law's future will be implicated. After all, Widow Wang is not only Chen Yongming's wife, but also the daughter-in-law of the Chen family and the mother of Chen Yongming's daughter."
Qin Wan frowned, a look of regret on his face. "In this case, wouldn't the eldest son of the Chen family be wronged? He clearly did nothing wrong."
Lu Yu gently scratched the tip of Qin Wan's nose and said softly:
"My silly girl, the eldest son of the Chen family does not deserve our sympathy. As a soldier, your first priority is to take care of your family.
As the saying goes, "If you can't clean up your own house, how can you clean up the world?" And you've witnessed firsthand what his family is like. Why are they so arrogant and domineering? They simply rely on their eldest son's military background and promising future.
How could he not know that his family members were doing this? No, he should know it very well. It’s just that he doesn’t want to restrict them.”
Qin Wan nodded in understanding, indicating that she understood. Then, she glanced at the watch on her wrist and was surprised to find that the time had quietly passed and it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
So, she turned to look at Lu Yu and said firmly, "I need to go out for a while."
Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but be slightly startled. He held Qin Wan's hand tightly, gently guided it to a certain position below the navel, and asked with a somewhat aggrieved tone:
"Tonight is our wedding night. Do you have the heart to leave me alone in an empty room?"
Facing Lu Yu's questioning, Qin Wan smiled helplessly and explained softly, "I'm really sorry, but Chen Yongming has been plotting against me one after another. I feel that the punishment I gave him before seems too light. If I don't teach him a lesson tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep peacefully."
Hearing this, Lu Yu nodded thoughtfully, and then responded:
"In that case, then fine. I can go with you and observe the mysterious widow Wang. Perhaps we can find some useful clues from her."
As soon as the words fell, the newly married couple quickly took action, changed into suitable clothes, and prepared to explore Chen's house.
The Qin family's courtyard is divided into two courtyards, front and back.
The front yard was occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Chen and their youngest son, while the back yard was occupied by Chen Yongming, Widow Wang, and the little girl she brought with her.
The night was deep and people had already fallen asleep, but Chen Da and his wife Ma Cui'e were still awake. They lay in bed and talked about their worries.
"Cui'e, I think Yongming has been a little strange in recent days. Do you think he is interested in the educated youth Xiao Qin again?" Chen Da asked softly.
"It's very likely. Look at that Qin Zhiqing, she is beautiful, stubborn, and a little silly. If we can trick her into getting her, she will definitely become our right-hand man in the future." Ma Cui'e analyzed.
"Yes, you are right. This young educated youth Qin knows that she cannot beat her sister, but she still stubbornly tries to hit a stone with an egg. She is unwilling to change direction even if she hits a wall. She is indeed a bit stupid." Chen Da agreed.
"Only such an idiot is easy to control! If it were someone like the educated youth from Daqin, let alone controlling her, you would be lucky if you were not beaten to a pulp by her." Ma Cui'e sighed.
"You said Wang Chunfang is also strange. She married Yongming, but she doesn't care about Yongming. Doesn't she like Yongming?" Chen Da asked with a frown.
Ma Cui'e chuckled, a playful smile on her face as she said, "Even though Yongming doesn't spend much time with her, doesn't he still have you, the old man? Don't think I don't know, Wang Chunfang is never idle. Maybe his daughter is yours. I think she looks a bit like you."
"Cui'e, this is nonsense. I've only had some kind of affair with her in the past two years. Before that, we didn't even have any contact. How could I have a child with her? Besides, I'm so old now. Even if I wanted to have a child with her, I couldn't."
After hearing what Ma Cui'e said, Chen Da's face turned very ugly and he hurriedly explained.
"I understand, I'm just teasing you. Why are you so easily teased? Tell me, even if that girl is yours, so what? Raising her is just an extra pair of chopsticks and an extra mouthful of rice. When she grows up, she can even be exchanged for a betrothal gift!"
Now that you've mentioned this, I think the child is most likely our Yongming's."
Ma Cui'e couldn't help laughing when she saw Chen Da's nervous look, and then she analyzed seriously. She knew exactly what her husband and son were like.
She had never liked Chen Da, and he really didn't care who Chen Dayuan hooked up with.
The two people squatting under the window and eavesdropping were dumbfounded. Is the Chen family so chaotic? It seems that they need to investigate thoroughly.
Qin Wan thought it was quite interesting and wanted to continue listening, but Lu Yu didn't want to. Today was his and Wan Wan's wedding night, and he couldn't waste it on this shameless family.
Lu Yu pulled Qin Wan to his side, hugged her slender waist, put his mouth close to Qin Wan's ear, and whispered, "Quickly release the smoke."
