Chapter 72
Xie Yunchu's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if a slender feather was piercing her heart. She couldn't help but shrink. After slowly coming to her senses, she bit her lips lightly and grinned with a hint of sarcasm.
Like her?
This was probably the biggest joke she had ever heard in her life.
"Wang Shuhuai, do you know what it means to love someone? You don't understand, you don't understand at all..."
If you like someone, your heart will beat fast when you look at him, and you can't help but smile when you think of him. Even if he gives you an unintentional glance, you can drown in the tenderness of that moment.
What is this, Wang Shuhuai?
She sneered.
Wang Shuhuai listened to her trembling last tone and looked back suddenly. He didn't have time to see her eyes clearly. She lowered her eyes, hiding all her emotions under her long eyelashes, restraining her inner anger and strode past him.
Wang Shuhuai looked at her determined back and stood there in a daze for a long time.
This is the first time I've seen her lose her composure in a long time.
Wang Shuhuai rested during the day and was on duty at night, so he rested in the government office area that night. At noon the next day, more than a dozen ships collided in the Tongzhou River section, involving the grain transported by the Ministry of Revenue to the capital. Wang Shuhuai volunteered to go to Tongzhou.
On September 15th, Wang Shuyi got married. Early in the morning, Wang Shuqin and Wang Shuya came to her boudoir to help her with her makeup and talk.
Dou Keling personally applied rouge and powder to her, and Xu Shiwei helped her check her wedding dress.
Wang Shuyi was like a puppet, allowing everyone to manipulate her.
Wang Shuya looked at Wang Shuyi, whose face was dull, and asked with a smile,
"Third sister, why don't you look happy?"
Wang Shuyi said blankly, "I don't know either. I have to leave you and go to a strange home. My heart suddenly feels empty."
Xu Shiwei smiled and glanced at her. "Why think so much? When I got married, all I could think about was your brother. What does he look like? Is he ugly? Does he love his wife?"
Xu Shiwei's parents' family was not in the capital, but in an official family in Sichuan. When the Duke marched to the Sichuan border, he received assistance from this family, and later their children became in-laws. Before the marriage, she had never met Wang Shutong, and she only thought that the Wang family was the most prestigious family in the world, and the young man in the mansion must be an elegant man. Later, when she met Wang Shutong, she was not disappointed.
Wang Shuyi smiled awkwardly. She had met Yang Kuan before, but she didn't have any deep feelings for him yet, so she couldn't say she had any expectations for him.
Dou Keling gently pushed her arm and whispered, "Silly girl, getting married has its advantages. You will have someone who understands you. In the past, your parents made all the decisions for you. Now that you are married, you can make your own decisions. Not only can you make your own decisions, but you will also have someone who listens to you."
Wang Shuyi smiled bitterly, "I'm happy to have someone to control me, I don't worry about that."
Wang Shuyi said, and then looked out the window, "Why can't I see my second sister-in-law?"
Wang Shuqin continued, "Second sister-in-law is entertaining guests in the Glazed Hall."
Wang Shuyi was a little disappointed and wished Xie Yunchu could come and accompany her.
The new son-in-law Yang Kuan brought two people to pick up the bride. One of them was Gao Zhan, and the other was extremely handsome. Xie Yunchu couldn't remember who he was at first.
It's just that this person has an extremely handsome appearance. Except for his temperament which is inferior to Wang Shuhuai, his appearance can be described as stunning.
The women gathered in the flower hall of Chuihua Gate and pointed at the man and whispered to each other.
From listening to people's discussions, I learned that the man was the young master of the Zhenguo Mansion, Lin Xiyue, the youngest son of the old Duke.
Xie Yunchu looked at the face and hadn't thought of anything yet. When he heard the name, he was suddenly startled.
In her previous life, the Fourth Madam had seen this Lin Xiyue somewhere, and thought that this man was as handsome as Wang Shuhuai, so she insisted on marrying him. However, Wang Shuya thought that he looked too feminine and lacked masculinity, so she was afraid to marry him. However, the Fourth Madam remembered that Lin Xiyue was very much favored by the old Duke, had a noble family background, and was so beautiful, so she forced her daughter to marry him.
Wang Shuya later got married, but she never returned to the palace after her marriage. No one remembered whether it was a year or half a year later, she swallowed gold and died.
Xie Yunchu broke out in a cold sweat on the back of his spine. He couldn't help but glance at the Fourth Madam in the crowd. Sure enough, he saw her staring at Lin Xiyue with shining eyes.
No, she had to think of a way to immediately dissuade the Fourth Madam from her idea.
After the new son-in-law came in, he was led by the Wang brothers to drink and have a feast in the front yard, leaving Jiang and Xu Shiwei in the boudoir to accompany Wang Shuyi. The other female members of the Wang family gathered in the small third hall behind the glazed hall to dine. During the meal, the fourth wife indeed praised Lin Xiyue for her outstanding talent.
Xie Yunchu couldn't find any other reliable people at the moment, so he sent Xia An to call Nanny Gui. Nanny Gui used to be the one who worked in the big kitchen, and when she got older, she was transferred to the inner courtyard to work. Xie Yunchu gave some instructions secretly, and Nanny Gui calmly served the masters at the table.
Seeing that everyone was praising Lin Xiyue, talking about her family background as a Zhenguo Duke and her character, and that they seemed to be attracted to her, he poured a glass of wine for the fourth wife and whispered,
"Madam, you don't know that I used to work in the kitchen. Once when I went to the market to buy something, I met someone from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and they talked about this young master."
When the Fourth Madam heard the inside story, she immediately pulled Aunt Gui's sleeve and asked, "Tell me quickly."
Nanny Gui deliberately whispered in her ear, "This young master has always been physically weak and has a fetish for that. I heard that many people died under his control..."
When the fourth wife heard this, her face turned pale with fright, "Are you serious?"
She was just about to find a matchmaker for her daughter, but when she heard this secret, it was like being poured with a bucket of cold water.
Madam Gui smiled bitterly and said, "If this kind of thing had not been said by someone else, would I have been able to make it up?"
The Fourth Madam immediately thought it made sense. This Madam Gui had done purchasing work for foreign affairs before, so her source of information was reliable. It was even more impossible for her to ruin a young master's reputation for no reason. She immediately gave up the thought that had just arisen in her mind, and couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Seeing that the Fourth Madam had stopped her trouble, Xie Yunchu also felt relieved.
The banquet in the flower hall was gradually coming to an end. Wang Yining came to the small third hall to look for Xie Yunchu. Xie Yunchu ate a few bites quickly and avoided the crowd with her.
To the west of the Small Third Hall there is a stone path leading to the lakeside, where there is a waterside pavilion. In late autumn, the autumn atmosphere is strong and the chrysanthemums are colorful. The two of them are leaning on the beauty chair and admiring the beautiful scenery of the lake.
"Aunt, is there something on your mind?"
When Xie Yunchu saw the two traces of worry between her brows, he couldn't help but tease her.
Wang Yining waved her hands while holding the handkerchief, and sighed, "It was all that bastard Gao Zhan's fault."
Xie Yunchu asked her with interest, "What's wrong?" Xie Yunchu had just drunk a little wine, and her cheeks were slightly red. Her skin was almost transparent under the autumn sun, as if a thin layer of rouge was about to show. Wang Yining looked at her with envy and couldn't help but stroke her cheek.
"He asked me to think about remarrying him, but I told him it was impossible."
Wang Yining's eyes were very calm, revealing a bit of nonchalance, "I just pulled myself out of a quagmire, how could I possibly fall into a tiger's den again? I heard that Madam Gao really likes Yang Xiyan, why would I go and join in the fun? Gao Zhan is just daydreaming."
"Then don't marry." Xie Yunchu said gently, "If I were you, I would not remarry. You have money to spend, a mansion to live in, and the title of the current princess. You have two daughters to take care of you. When you are old, you will enjoy so much happiness. Why bother to marry someone else and have to look at other people's faces?"
"That's right." Wang Yining continued, "But... guess what that bastard Gao Zhan said?"
Seeing Wang Yining's gloomy expression, Xie Yunchu suddenly felt that something was going on. He rolled his eyes and asked with a smile, "What did you say?"
Wang Yining looked around and saw that there was no one else besides their maids guarding the waterside pavilion. She gently pulled Xie Yunchu's arm into her arms and whispered in her ear,
"The bastard said, 'You don't want a husband, but you want a man.'"
"Tsk..." Xie Yunchu covered his mouth and laughed.
Wang Yining looked annoyed and angry, and snorted, "Do you think he is a bastard?"
Xie Yunchu laughed for a while, then turned serious again, "There is some truth in what you said."
Wang Yining rolled her eyes at her.
Xie Yunchu asked, "What does the little aunt think?"
Wang Yining was silent. Living in the Princess' Mansion, she led a carefree and unrestrained life. She made all the decisions on her own and did not need to be constrained by anyone. It was simply a god's life, except that she sometimes had trouble sleeping alone at night.
She thought for a while and said frankly, "Chu'er, to be honest, I have tasted the taste of men, and I can't be a widow all of a sudden. But Gao Zhan's words are not to be believed. How can he, the son of the Duke's Mansion, be my guest? I don't have to have him. If I meet someone I like later, it would be nice to find one..."
Xie Yunchu pursed his lips and smiled, "I agree with you."
Somehow I thought of Wang Shuhuai again.
Since that conversation that day, she never paid any attention to him again. He went to Tongzhou a few days ago and came back last night, but Xie Yunchu didn't say a word to him.
Gao Zhan and Wang Yining are only separated by a layer of status, but she and Wang Shuhuai shared the same life in their previous life.
In her previous life, she loved him with all her heart and followed his preferences and rules. However, he never came to see her before his death. In this life, she left him behind, but he kept saying that he liked her. How could he have the nerve to say it?
Wang Yining finally said with a lack of interest, "Besides, the Gao family is the Crown Princess's family, and they are closely related to the Eastern Palace. Now that the Prince of Han, the Prince of Xin and the Crown Prince are fighting for power, why should I get involved in this mess?"
Xie Yunchu looked thoughtful when he heard this. In his previous life, these people had stirred up a bloody storm in the court. One after another, they came on stage and made the entire capital city in turmoil.
I wonder if Wang Shuhuai can successfully become the prime minister in this life?
The two chatted for a while, and suddenly a clear voice came from under the rockery.
"You two actually hid here to talk, making it difficult for me to find you?"
Wang Shuqin came with the pink and tender Ke Jie'er. Ke Jie'er had tears in her eyes. When she saw her mother, she rushed into her arms like a bird flying into the forest. Xie Yunchu hugged her daughter and asked Wang Shuqin, "Shuyi was taken away?"
"I've picked it up." Wang Shuqin sighed and sat down to the right of Wang Yining, leaning on the beauty chair with her.
"I felt sad for her when I saw her crying so hard at the end. Do you think a girl has to get married? I can't stay in my own home forever. If I go out and become someone's daughter-in-law, I will be set rules for others. I will go to a completely stranger's family with different eating and dressing habits and different rules. Isn't that asking for trouble? Now that Shuyi is gone, I feel empty inside." Wang Shuqin felt sympathetic for her own kind. Thinking of her mother forcing her to get married, she couldn't help but feel sad.
Wang Yining was going through a period of emotional pain and felt the same way about Wang Shuqin's words. She turned around and advised her, "If you really don't want to get married, just move to the Princess's Mansion and live with me. As long as my mother doesn't force you, no one else can do anything to you."
Although the third wife hoped that her daughter would get married, she did not push her too much.
Xie Yunchu picked up Sister Ke and placed her on the beauty chair, and asked about Wang Shuqin.
"Shuqin, how is your polo match with Princess Fuyuan going?"
At this point, Wang Shuqin became interested. "That's good. Originally, you were pregnant and in confinement, so we couldn't invite you. Now it's OK. The place is in Fangjiayuan inside Chaoyang Gate. There is a large horse farm there. The princess and I renovated it and fenced it off. We also built a few courtyards at the back, divided into female and male guests. In the past, the polo fields in the capital were all for men, but this time we have a field for women too!"
"Then you must call me when you play polo tomorrow."
Wang Shuqin naturally agreed.
Soon, Nanny Lin sent someone to look for Xie Yunchu, saying that the banquet was about to end and Madam Xiao and Madam Ming were planning to return home. Xie Yunchu then remembered that he had guests to attend, so he hurriedly took his sister to see his stepmother and aunt off.
After leaving the waterside pavilion and returning to the glass hall, she ran into Chunqi who was looking for her.
"My aunt is sitting in Chunjing Hall. Please come over."
Xie Yunchu cried out in annoyance, he was so busy chatting with Wang Yining that he delayed the time. Without saying a word, he returned to Chunjing Hall and saw Madam Ming holding her baby boy in her arms, basking in the sun under the porch, while Madam Xiao was sitting on the platform, concentrating on thinking, no one knew what she was thinking about.
Xie Yunchu went over and said, "Look at me, I left you two behind."
Madam Ming smiled and glanced at her. "Today we have many guests, so we have to entertain them. Who are we? Why do we need you to entertain us? I have nothing to do. I am just your aunt, and I want to tell you something."
When Ke Jie'er saw Madam Ming, she ran over affectionately and called her grandmother. Madam Ming's smile melted her heart. She leaned over and kissed Ke Jie'er's little face. She handed the sleeping Er Ge'er to the wet nurse, got up and took Ke Jie'er to play in the yard. Ke Jie'er liked to swing on a swing, so Xie Yunchu built a swing for her under the east wall, and the grandmother and granddaughter then went to that side.
Xie Yunchu helped Madam Xiao into the room.
"What's the matter, aunt?"
Madam Xiao took her hand and sat down under the south window. "It's not a big deal, but your mother asked me to tell you something."
Xie Yunchu was slightly stunned, "What's the matter?"
Madam Xiao said,
"The second daughter of the Jiang family knows about your relationship with your mother and has made a big fuss at home. Not long ago, your mother arranged a marriage for her. She picked out men from prominent families in the capital, with good character and family background. But Jiang Cairu didn't like any of them and even said that she had to find someone who could stand shoulder to shoulder with your Shuhuai."
Xie Yunchu paused for a moment.
Madam Xiao smiled bitterly, "Your mother didn't want to tell you at first, but this time she asked me to be frank with you. Originally in Jiangnan, Jiang Cairu ran into Shuhuai by chance and had feelings for him."
Xie Yunchu understood. No wonder Jiang Cairu made things difficult for her. It turned out that she was planning to take advantage of Wang Shuhuai.
"Then what."
"Then she really found one, and when she came back she begged your mother and Lord Jiang to make the decision for her."
"who?"
"Lin Xiyue, the young master of the Zhenguo Mansion."
Xie Yunchu almost choked on his throat when he took a sip of tea.
It is true that there is a road to heaven but she doesn't take it, and there is no door to hell but she insists on going there.
Lin Xiyue’s identity is not just as simple as the young master of the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion.
"Since she chose him herself, she has to swallow the bitter pill."
Madam Xiao didn't listen carefully to what Xie Yunchu said. "You know your mother's temper. I've done my best to please her, so I'll let her do what she wants. Governor Jiang may have seen Mr. Lin and couldn't persuade his daughter, so he went to the palace to ask the emperor for a marriage."
Xie Yunchu was speechless and choked.
After finishing this idle chat, he went out to look for Madam Ming. It was getting late, and Madam Ming was planning to go back. Xie Yunchu wanted to keep her, but Madam Xiao looked at him coldly, "Look, now that you have a mother, you've forgotten about me, your aunt?"
Xie Yunchu smiled, "I would like to keep my aunt, but when has my aunt ever given me face?"
Madam Ming looked irritated and glared at Madam Xiao, "Chu'er doesn't treat you as her mother, but you use her as a raft," and then she pulled Xie Yunchu intimately and said,
"My child, your father is still ill. How can I abandon him and come to live with him another day?"
After seeing the guests off, there will be a family dinner in the evening.
Xie Yunchu returned to Chunjing Hall to bathe and change clothes, intending to rest for a while. As soon as he sat down on the kang bed, he heard the maids outside greeting him one after another.
"The Second Master is back..."
Xie Yunchu's face turned cold and he stood up and went to the inner room.
Wang Shuhuai lifted the flower-patterned curtain and saw his wife enter the inner room without looking back. He smiled to himself, calmly called the maid to wash his hands, and followed her in.
Xie Yunchu sat at the dressing table and re-dressed and tied her hair. Chunqi was about to come in to serve her, but when he glanced inside and saw Wang Shuhuai sitting calmly on the armchair under the screen, he quickly retracted his head and went out of the east room. He saw Xia An coming in with a bowl of ginseng soup, and he quickly pushed the person back.
Xia An wondered, "What's wrong with you?"
Chunqi glanced eastward, leaned over Xia An and whispered, "The young lady is angry with her husband."
Xia An's eyes turned darkly, "Really?"
Ever since the girl decisively sold the ghost ball last year, she has stopped caring about her son-in-law. But even though she has stopped caring about him, she is still kind to him.
To make her show off so openly, the son-in-law must have done something that touched her bottom line.
Wang Shuhuai, who was in the inner room, felt much more relieved when he saw that Xie Yunchu ignored him.
At least there are emotions.
The sun moved westward, and the light moved from the east window to the west window. There was a small window opened in the inner room, and the setting sun cast a layer of golden light on the bed.
Xie Yunchu's face was reflected in the afterglow.
Perhaps she sensed his aggressive gaze, Xie Yunchu deliberately pinned her black hair to the left, covering her entire face tightly and completely blocking Wang Shuhuai's sight.
Wang Shuhuai chuckled, drank tea calmly, and told her a few things about the canal. Xie Yunchu listened to it, but ignored him. He combed his hair, went straight to the bed, put the quilt on his chest, and said to him coldly,
"There is a family dinner tonight. I am tired and need to rest for a while. Second Master, please go outside."
Wang Shuhuai stood up and said, "I want to take a bath too." He was forced to drink a lot of wine during the wedding ceremony today, and he reeked of alcohol now.
Xie Yunchu remembered something and asked unhappily, "Is the study room not finished yet?"
Wang Shuhuai stood outside the bed and glanced at his wife through the carved bed rails. He said calmly, "I didn't do it."
Xie Yunchu was so angry that he laughed.
"Then you can sleep outside."
Wang Shuhuai refused and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
After washing up, Xie Yunchu went to the east room to deal with a batch of documents. After resting for two quarters of an hour, he woke up.
The meal was served from the upper room, and the couple changed their clothes in silence and went to the glass hall.
As autumn arrives, the night wind becomes biting.
The four corners of the corridors of the Glass Hall were hung with sheep-horn palace lanterns, like colorful ribbons inlaid in the Glass Hall. The roller curtains on all sides were lowered, and a thick layer of pine felt curtains was put up to keep out the cold frost of the night.
The hall was as warm as before, with five or six 8-person tables of different sizes set up. As it was still early, not all the people had arrived yet and no one was in a hurry to sit down. Brother Wei was too young to be brought over, so the couple walked in, one in front and one behind, holding Sister Ke's hand.
As soon as Xie Yunchu entered, he saw Wang Shuqin and Wang Shuya talking to a young girl.
The girl was very plump, with a fair and clear face, and seemed to have a carefree personality.
When Wang Shuqin saw Xie Yunchu, she quickly came over and pointed at the girl and introduced her to Xie Yunchu.
"This is the fourth daughter of my grandmother's family. She went to Beijing not long ago. Today she is here as a guest. My mother asked her to stay at home."
The girl Zhou Si also stepped forward and bowed. "I have heard of your virtuous name for a long time. Today I see that you are indeed a beauty. My name is Min, so if you don't mind, you can call me Min'er."
Xie Yunchu noticed from her expression that she was somewhat like the Third Madam, and he took a liking to her. "Hello, Miss Min'er." He immediately took off a string of Hetian jade beads from his wrist and gave it to her. "It's just a small gift for meeting you. Please accept it."
Zhou Min hurriedly said that she didn't dare and tried to refuse. Xie Yunchu put it on her personally, so she accepted it. Everyone sat down and talked and asked about the Zhou family.
Before the banquet started, Wang Shuhuai took his children to sit with Wang Shukuang and others. The children were playing in the retreat room in the northeast corner. Wang Shuhuai was sitting under the window at a corner outside the retreat room, glancing at his wife and daughter from time to time.
When Xie Yunchu saw the eldest grandmother Miao sitting in the corner with a sad face, he went over and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
Miao looked distressed and quietly pointed to the wife's table, "Mother and father are having a quarrel."
Xie Yunchu followed her line of sight and saw that the usually gentle eldest wife had red eyes. "What's wrong? She was fine when I saw her today at 9:00 p.m."
Miao sighed, "At the luncheon today, there were not enough people in the front hall, so a group of maids were assigned from the kitchen to serve tea. One of the maids was very pretty and my father took a liking to her. After the banquet was over in the afternoon, my father went to my mother and asked her to marry the maid for him. My mother thought to herself that my father was not young anymore and it was not proper for him to have concubines on his left and right, so she said something to him."
"Now, my father is angry and scolded my mother, saying that my mother did not please the princess. Last time, the princess rewarded the fourth wife with a shop, but the first wife got nothing. My father was unhappy and took out all his anger on my mother."
Xie Yunchu sighed a few times, "What is this?"
"Isn't it?" Miao became more and more angry as she spoke. "That's fine, but the old man doesn't even care about his own health. He even takes that kind of medicine for... " Miao said secretively.
Xie Yunchu was stunned, and a sense of resentment suddenly arose in his heart.
At this point, Miao envied Xie Yunchu again.
"After all, Shu Huai is still the best. Chu'er, your glory is secondary. The most comfortable thing is that there are no concubines in the room to bother you. Although they are born as maids, once they become half-masters, who doesn't want to climb up? Take the concubines in my room. They seem to be doing their duty, but they also make me angry in private!"
After hearing this, Xie Yunchu couldn't help laughing.
If Wang Shuhuai hadn't gotten entangled, he would have been an impeccable husband.
After all, she had a grudge against Wang Shuhuai from her previous life.
Secondly, she didn't want to give her true heart to any man in this life and didn't want to repeat the mistakes of her previous life. But Wang Shuhuai just happened to be wrong and insisted on making trouble with her.
Soon the banquet began and everyone took their seats one after another.
After three rounds of drinks, the master looked around and didn't see the maid from the day. He felt unhappy and called his personal servant.
"Where is the person who asked you to inquire?"
The servant smiled and said, "Madam has already asked for you. The maid is a kitchen helper. Now we just need Third Madam's approval. She can be sent to your room tonight."
The master was satisfied, and whispered, "Go and get my Hehuan wine."
The servant understood immediately and went back to his room. When he returned to the Glazed Hall, he saw the eldest master Wang Shuzhao standing on the stage with a wine jug in his hand, smiling. The servant shuddered and knelt down to greet him.
Wang Shuzhao was too lazy to argue with him and said straight to the point, "I know the thing in your hand very well, and I will tell you clearly that you can either use this pot in my hand as a replacement, or I will send you to the Discipline Institute and beat you to death on the charge of bewitching the master."
The servant's knees suddenly became weak, and he knelt down in front of the young master with a flutter, "Master, Master, please have mercy, I will obey you, I only beg you to spare my life."
Wang Shuzhao took the Hehuan wine from his hand and handed over his own pot.
The servant took it nervously and walked into the door timidly.
The master was already feeling drunk and didn't notice the taste for a while.
As for Wang Shuzhao, holding the pot of Hehuan wine, he slowly walked into the tea room in the back corridor. He first unscrewed the lid and poured the Hehuan wine onto the ground. After pouring most of it, he could not help himself when he smelled the aroma. He could not help but go into the tea room to get a small cup. He poured one cup and put it to his nose to smell it. Sure enough, the fragrance was rich and beautiful. He put the remaining wine aside and stood in the vent of the back corridor holding the wine cup to taste it.
Just at this moment, a little maid came in to get wine. She glanced at the wine jug on the shelf and poured the wine into one of the wine cups. After pouring out some, there was not enough left, so she changed to a new wine jug and continued to fill it up. Then she poured a total of eight cups and sent them to the hall. This plate of wine was sent to the women's table.
The maids brought the wine cups to the masters one by one. Xie Yunchu was talking to Wang Shuqin about the polo field. He was very happy. He picked up the wine cup and poured it into his mouth. He choked on the first sip.
"Why is this wine so strong?"
The maid was startled and said, "Reply to Second Madam, this is plum wine, is it sake?"
Xie Yunchu sniffed the edge of the cup again and indeed smelled a hint of plum wine. Seeing that no one else reacted, he gave up.
After eating and drinking, everyone went back to their rooms one after another. The eldest son Wang Shuzhao personally threw his drunken father back to the inner room. The eldest master was unconscious and had no time to think about whether he was a maid or not.
The eldest grandmother Miao was tired after a day's work. She first took care of the children to sleep, then hurriedly washed up and returned to her room. She caught a glimpse of her husband leaning on the pillow of the bed with his chest and abdomen exposed, his long eyes staring straight at her. Miao's face flushed, and she sat at the dressing table to take off her hairpins while muttering,
"What's wrong, Master?"
The eldest young master Wang Shuzhao waved his hand impatiently, "Come here quickly."
Miao had not been intimate with her husband for a long time, and she was looking forward to it in her heart. She had given birth to two children and was less than 30 years old, so she was not old and ugly. How could Miao not have some desire to compete for the spring? So she leaned tenderly in her husband's arms and followed his wishes.
Good things come halfway. Miao noticed that her husband was different from before and couldn't help but sniff him, "Did you drink anything?"
Wang Shuzhao was sweating profusely, staring at his wife under him, "Do you like it?"
Miao guessed what the reason was and angrily hit her husband several times.
