When you are powerless to resist, submission may be the only way out.
Hua Yue was favored by the Third Prince on the very night she was sent to his residence.
Hua Yue tried her best, using her limited knowledge and naivety to please the Third Prince.
This made the Third Prince extremely happy.
No man wouldn't feel elated if a woman worshipped him like a great hero.
As a concubine, she was not allowed to return home for the first time. The Third Prince made an unprecedented exception and allowed Hua Yue to return home once every three days.
This made Hua Qian extremely happy, and she asked for leave again to wait at home for her daughter to return.
In fact, he had never even given this daughter a second glance before Hua Rong disappeared.
If he hadn't wanted to find someone to replace her, he probably wouldn't have even remembered that he had such a daughter in the inner quarters.
How tragic.
After Huayue returned, she remained obedient and even went to her aunt to ask for advice on how to serve men.
She doesn't have the power to deal with her own parents right now, but she understands the principle that they share both prosperity and adversity.
Right now, she just wanted to take advantage of this moment, while the Third Prince's novelty towards her hadn't worn off...
To gain more benefits, and it would be even better if one could conceive a child or two.
She would spend the rest of her life with her child; heaven knows how much she prayed to have a son.
Hua Yue did not intend to use her son to rise in rank.
After all, there were too many women in the Third Prince's residence, and all the positions of concubines were already full.
The advantage of having a son is that he won't be given away as a concubine, and even in arranged marriages, the son will marry a wife back home.
If you're not satisfied with your first wife, you can always marry a second.
You never know what will happen if you have a daughter. Who knows what kind of treatment she'll receive in the future?
Even the daughters of princes are not guaranteed a good ending.
This was her profound realization after entering the Third Prince's residence.
Since the Emperor announced that the Crown Prince would ascend the throne in two years,
Previously, they had been in a wait-and-see mode, or perhaps they were hoping to marry their daughters to the princes.
Many have changed their minds and are now rushing to arrange blind dates for their daughters.
Therefore, cosmetics, face powder, and fabrics of various colors have been selling very well in the capital recently.
Naturally, you should dress up for a blind date; everyone wants to show their best side.
Zhao Qingyan's Huicui Pavilion boutique shop is also extremely popular.
Besides cosmetics, clothing, shoes, socks, and bags, even full-length mirrors, which were previously slow to sell due to their high prices, have recently become very popular.
The wealthy have already bought it, while those without money are still observing.
Nowadays, when a daughter gets married, it's considered proper to prepare a full-length mirror.
It would be incredibly embarrassing if other families' daughters had something that yours didn't.
When Zhao Qingyan, who was far away in Kenqing City, received the bill, she was overjoyed.
Zhao Qingyan, whose married life was exceptionally harmonious, noticed that her face had gained some weight.
Ever since she married Xu Dongsheng, this guy has been clingy and affectionate, treating Zhao Qingyan like a pig.
As the sun set, there was nothing much to do in the yamen, so Xu Dongsheng ordered some meat skewers to be prepared.
Right now, he's having a barbecue with his wife in the back office.
While grilling skewers, he could also drink various beverages he had never tried before.
Xu Dongsheng's favorite thing is all kinds of sweet drinks; he loves every single one of them.
He had always felt that his wife was a person with secrets.
After the wedding, he became even more convinced, and the box of small umbrellas he received on the morning of the second day of their marriage was proof of that.
Although he didn't recognize the crooked characters above,
But looking at the exquisite craftsmanship and the unfamiliar materials, he was 100% certain that his wife was having a secret.
For an unmarried young woman who has never even been in a relationship in her previous life, why would she be stocking up on small umbrellas when she's hoarding other goods? That's quite a coincidence.
When Zhao Qingyan stocked up on medicines at the pharmacy, she prepared all kinds of commonly used medicines, including various medicines for children.
While checking out, I inexplicably saw small umbrellas on the counter and decided to clear out the pharmacy's stock.
Not only that, but they also ordered a lot of medicine from a pharmaceutical factory, and also ordered some small umbrellas.
As for the exact amount of space, Zhao Qingyan wasn't quite sure.
There was just too much stuff, but she felt she could use it all in her entire life.
Xu Dongsheng knew his wife was still young and it wasn't good for her to have a baby too early, so he was very willing to cooperate when he found that useful tool.
Not only that, he also cautiously asked his wife,
"Yan'er, will using this thing guarantee you won't get pregnant? Could it be harmful to your health?"
Zhao Qingyan rolled her eyes at Xu Dongsheng at that moment.
"It does me no harm at all; not only does it not harm me, it's also clean and hygienic."
It just depends on whether you're willing to cooperate.
Xu Dongsheng had no reason to object; he found even a little eye roll from his wife adorable. Such was the power of lust to cloud one's judgment.
Later, Zhao Qingyan always managed to come up with some useful and high-quality items, such as towels and bath towels.
Xu Dongsheng became even more certain that his wife was hiding something.
However, his greatest strength is that he never asks where anything he sees comes from.
He uses whatever his wife gives him and eats whatever she gives him; he's incredibly obedient.
Therefore, Zhao Qingyan is becoming more and more unrestrained.
Living under the same roof means that secrets will be exposed sooner or later, so test repeatedly before they are exposed.
Fortunately, at least for now, Xu Dongsheng is still behaving himself.
Even if she were discovered one day, Zhao Qingyan wouldn't be too worried.
As for the spatial rules, at worst we can just pull Xu Dongsheng into the space for a spin.
Once he gets out, even if he wanted to tell someone, he wouldn't be able to, making it safer for him.
Now, who would imagine that a dignified county magistrate is wearing a cotton t-shirt, shorts, and an apron, standing in front of a barbecue grill, fanning himself as he grills skewers for his wife?
To encourage Xu Dongsheng's hardworking and simple qualities, Zhao Qingyan decided to treat him to a can of beer today.
A few hundred milliliters, the kind you can finish in a few gulps.
Xu Dongsheng placed the grilled skewers on a plate and urged Zhao Qingyan to eat quickly, as they wouldn't taste good if they got cold.
Given Zhao Qingyan's appetite, it seems quite difficult for Xu Dongsheng to feed her alone.
Finally, Xu Dongsheng was dragged to the table, where two cooks were called over to grill skewers.
These two boys are from the Ciyouyuan Orphanage in Qingyang County; they are both 14 years old this year.
Neither of them ever imagined that they would end up working as cooks in the county government office after arriving in this northern region—it was wonderful!
In the sales home, their cooking skills were among the best they had ever learned.
The only problem was the barbecue, since there wasn't much meat in the orphanage to keep grilling for them.
When they arrived at the back office of Kenqing City, they were like mice that had fallen into a rice jar.
Every day they try to make all sorts of dishes they've learned, and they also have to improve and innovate on the existing ones. To put it bluntly, these two guys are born to be chefs.
