Chapter 64, Eat the Big Melon of Fourth Uncle

"Oh, okay, okay. Jinqiu, you really married a good wife."

"Take good care of your wife, she is the treasure of our family now."

The old lady agreed immediately.

She didn't worry at all that the Zhong family would disagree.

The Zhong family is just a merchant family. If a daughter can become the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, it is a great honor.

Not to mention glorifying the ancestors, it is more likely to cross the class and take the whole family to a step forward.

The old lady happily planned that after the Zhong family solved the matter of the Marquis' Mansion, she would ask for a favor and ask the Zhong family to help her family.

Her mother went bankrupt and even eating was a problem.

Seeing Xie Jinqiu carefully helping Zhong Youyan out, the tension of the Li family in the past two days suddenly dissipated a lot.

She didn't know about the Zhong family's fuss about breaking off the engagement some time ago.

I just feel that I and my son have done meritorious service when they came back from disaster relief, and the reward from the Holy Spirit should come soon.

And the hole in the house was filled again, which was a double happiness.

Therefore, she planned to go see Xie Jinzhao first, and then go to Liu Wan's place to give her a good rub.

There is a daughter-in-law who is so unfilial.

Zhong Youyan returned to the courtyard all the way and saw a bunch of supplements and jewelry sent by the old lady and Li. She couldn't help but smile coldly and said to Xie Jinqiu, "Husband, my Zhong family has more of these things. You can ask your servants to send them back."

The Hou Mansion is so poor, but the old lady and the others can still come up with such valuable things.

It seemed that he was deliberately trying to please her.

I don’t know if Liu Wan was treated like this when she came in.

Xie Jinqiu pursed his lips, "These are the thoughts of the elders, just accept them, so that the servants won't have to give up."

"Okay, just consider it as a reward for Xiao Fuxing."

Zhong Youyan stroked her temples and gave all the things to her personal maid Xiao Fuxing.

Xiao Fuxing smiled like a lucky star.

She took the whip beside her with a smile and handed it to Zhong Youyan.

When Xie Jinqiu saw the fiery red whip, his heart went cold, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and he took a step back slightly. Zhong

Youyan said, "My husband, if you make me happy tonight, I will definitely speak well of the Marquis' Mansion at my parents' home, and also..."

Also, the matter of his mother's tablet being placed in the ancestral temple.

Xie Jinqiu suddenly looked firm, and he said with trembling lips, "Okay!"

In Liu Wan's main courtyard, Wangxia secretly said to Liu Wan, "Asheng's daughter told me yesterday that since the fourth lady married in, there have been strange noises coming from the fourth master's main room every night."

"It doesn't sound like a newlywed couple is happy and joyful, but more like whipping, holding back low wails."

"Originally, the fourth lady didn't let the maids of the marquis' mansion get close, but the more she didn't let them get close, the more curious people became. Asheng's daughter secretly went to listen and came back blushing, thinking that the couple was playing something exciting."

After listening, Liu Wan felt embarrassed and didn't listen anymore.

But neither of them noticed that a little cutie with ears raised to eat watermelons had crawled to Wangxia's feet.

[Wow, such a lot of information. 】

【Zhong Youyan is in the plot, but she is someone she loves. I even support their CP. 】

【According to the plot, even if Fourth Uncle didn't have a mistress, Zhong Youyan would still be reluctant to marry him. 】

【She wouldn't secretly abuse Fourth Uncle, would she? 】

Liu Wan was slightly stunned and found the little guy crawling on the ground with a pacifier in his mouth.

It really is.

Wherever there is a melon, there is her.

She sighed helplessly. Fortunately, the little guy didn't understand anything and didn't think about it that way.

According to what Wanwan said, it is not impossible that Zhong Youyan abused Xie Jinqiu behind closed doors.

After all, she was the one who was clamoring to cancel the engagement, and suddenly Xie Jinqiu took away her innocence. She had to marry him, and she must be holding a grudge.

Xie Jinqiu claimed to be weak since childhood. There were a lot of medicinal herbs in the courtyard, and he also knew some pharmacology.

She was now afraid that the Marquis' Mansion had too big a financial hole, and the Marquis' Mansion would covet the dowry of the Zhong family, and let Xie Jinqiu drug Zhong Youyan .

Just like herself.

If she had not been lucky enough to give birth to Wanwan, she would not have known that the tonic she had been drinking for five years turned out to be a chronic drug!

She had to find an opportunity to remind Zhong Youyan.

At this time, Qing Sheng hurriedly ran in, "Grandma, the madam is here to see you!"

"What?" Liu Wan stood up, but was hugged by the little guy on the ground.

"Mother... Mother..." Xia Wanwan blinked her big eyes and pointed at herself.

[Take me with you, take me with you, I want to be at the forefront of eating melons, mother, my good mother, just look at me.

Liu Wan had no choice but to let Panchun pick up the kid and go to the front yard together.

Xu Rourou also came with Li, and Liu Wan knew what was going on. Xu Rourou's father was still

in prison.

Liu Wan asked someone to make a pot of tea. Wangxia took the old moldy tea from last year and spit into the pot twice.

Then he brought it to the table and filled it for Li and Xu Rourou. Ling Lu said

Liu Wan saw the foam on the tea, which quickly dissipated, and smiled at Wangxia.

Obviously, Li and Xu Rourou didn't care about these details, and took a sip.

Li said, "I didn't expect that the tea here is quite old."

"Mother-in-law is a tea connoisseur. Rourou can taste some fermented Pu'er tea. Sister's tea is really good. It must be expensive, right?"

Xu Rourou flattered Li, secretly saying that the Marquis's Mansion was in such a state now, but Liu Wan was still spending lavishly.

Liu Wan's originally indifferent expression completely collapsed after she saw Wangxia's expression of internal injury behind Li.

She pressed down the corner of her mouth and asked, "Mother-in-law, you must not come here to taste tea this time."

"Liu Wan, I took away Zhongkui some time ago, why didn't you tell me about the loss inside? Now the loss is getting bigger and bigger. If it weren't for your fourth brother's wife, the mansion would have gone bankrupt long ago. How can you be the mistress?"

Li wanted to blame her and arouse Liu Wan's guilt.

Then she pretended to be magnanimous and gave Liu Wan a way out, and brought up the matter of Xu Rourou's father.

Unexpectedly, Liu Wan smiled slightly, "I thought my mother-in-law had eyes." She

couldn't see such a huge loss, so she was blind.

"You! What do you mean!" Li was caught off guard.

Liu Wan continued, "You can see the deficit in the account book if you just flip through it. Do you need me to tell you? Could it be that mother-in-law has never flipped through the account book and only saw it today?"

Li's eyes flashed, "Of course I have flipped through it."

She continued, "I just came here to tell you that I don't blame you for this matter, and you shouldn't be upset because you harmed the Marquis's Mansion."

Liu Wan's face was expressionless.

Li said again, "This time I came here with Aunt Xu to apologize to you. She shouldn't have slandered you before."

Xu Rourou stood up, saluted Liu Wan, and cried,

"Sister, I was sorry for you before. Now that my father's crime has been determined, you serve the prince with me, and I will let you off the hook and spare my father's life."
