Chapter 350: A Master at Playing with People's Hearts
Jiang Yuzhu thought the matter was over and just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she saw Xie Zhao take a sip of tea and said leisurely: "Although this won't happen again, how can Yuzhu make it up to your husband for his mistake this time?"
What, you want to make up for it?
Jiang Yuzhu said awkwardly: "How about giving me money?"
Money makes the world go round. Apart from money, Jiang Yuzhu could not think of anything else.
If Xie Zhao made a mistake and threw money at her, she would definitely be able to ease a lot of her anger.
Xie Zhao curled his lips and said, "My husband doesn't need money."
Food and accommodation are all provided at home, so there is no extra expenses.
If Xie Zhao wanted to give Jiang Yuzhu a gift, he had his own way of making money.
"That……"
Jiang Yuzhu racked her brains and thought of a way for her to make a pair of socks for Xie Zhao, sewing them herself.
"A husband does not care about material things."
Xie Zhao lowered his eyes to hide the smile in his eyes.
Speaking of this, Jiang Yuzhu suddenly remembered that she had a score to settle with Xie Zhao.
"You don't care, why are you pretending to be pitiful in front of my parents and brother?"
He always takes out his purse and rubs it, and takes out letters with old creases. Isn't this a sign that Jiang Yuzhu is being neglectful?
"You can just tell me what you want. Why do you have to play tricks on me? How shameless!"
Jiang Yuzhu sneered at this.
Facing the rebuke, Xie Zhao calmly explained: "I just miss you too much and can't help myself. I don't have any complicated thoughts."
"Humph, quibbling!"
Jiang Yuzhu might not win in a verbal battle with Xie Zhao, so she decided not to get angry with herself.
There is no point in saying more to people like this who are calculating in their bones.
After being exposed, Xie Zhao did not feel guilty at all, but asked: "I have discovered a treasure land, can Yuzhu accompany me?"
Two days before returning to Beijing, Xie Zhao asked to be alone with Jiang Yuzhu.
Leaving behind their children and maids, the couple can be alone in the true sense of the word.
The luggage has been prepared, but because of Fugui and Wanwan, a carriage needs to be built, which will take a few days to prepare.
After the confinement period, Jiang Yuzhu had some free time and didn’t have to breastfeed, so she agreed.
"Let's go."
Xie Zhao prepared a small package and this time gently carried his wife up.
The couple left a letter and left Zhuangzi.
When Shen arrived, he found nothing.
Hongli was so concerned that she was in a panic, pacing around like an ant on a hot pan, and asked anxiously, "Madam, will the master be violent to you?"
"Won't."
Shen was sure of this, as the Xie family had their own family motto, and besides, Xie Zhao was not that kind of person.
Shen felt inexplicably relieved when she saw the note. She was also an accomplice in helping to conceal the truth, and she was worried that her son Xie Zhao would come looking for her later.
Faced with a son who was full of moral principles, Shen was a little overwhelmed.
"Yuanhe and Yuzhu, go take a walk around the area. You should guard the mansion well and take good care of the young master and young lady in the next few days."
After giving the instructions, Shen happily went to the backyard to see Fugui and Wanwan.
It was sunset, and the forest was tinged with a light warm color.
Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu rode into the bamboo forest on horseback, with the breeze blowing past their ears and the fragrance of bamboo filling the air.
“Yuzhu, Su City not only has strong men and beautiful women, but also beautiful scenery.”
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, we still couldn't find the end of the bamboo sea.
Xie Zhao rode forward. Jiang Yuzhu noticed that his route was very methodical and asked, "Is this also a place that outsiders cannot enter?"
"Madam is smart. There is indeed a formation set up outside."
Xie Zhao was out on business when he accidentally found this place. It seemed to have been abandoned for many years and had no owner.
There are hot springs and clear streams in the bamboo forest. It is quiet, elegant and undisturbed.
Taking advantage of his free time, Xie Zhao renovated the bamboo house and bought some simple household items. He spent a lot of time and effort just to bring Jiang Yuzhu to stay for two days.
"There are deep pools below the stream, and the fish in them are very fat and delicious."
By the time it was getting dark, the couple finally arrived at the bamboo house.
Before Xie Zhao finished his introduction, Jiang Yuzhu began to visit curiously and praised: "What a great place!"
It is even better than the villa built at great expense in the suburbs of Beijing, especially the scent of bamboo, which makes people feel peaceful and comfortable.
If Jiang Yuzhu had known there was such a beautiful view, she would not have spent money to see the strong man!
The bamboo building is divided into two floors. There are huge windows on the downstairs. When the windows are opened, it is perfect for drinking tea and enjoying the scenery.
Upstairs, there are beds and other things, it is clean and tidy.
Jiang Yuzhu touched it left and right, and said happily: "Did you prepare all these for me?"
Xie Zhao nodded, and then kept silent.
"Thank you Yuanhe, I like it!"
At least, Xie Zhao was attentive. After feeling guilty for looking at the strong man for half a minute, Jiang Yuzhu took the initiative to take over the work from Xie Zhao.
The couple brought small stools and sat at the door. Xie Zhao used hot water to scald the chicken feathers, while Jiang Yuzhu gutted the fat fish. The two chatted idly.
"Yuanhe, I asked Fendie, she is not going back to the capital."
Jiang Yuzhu couldn't help feeling sad when she thought of her good sister.
In Sucheng, Zhao Fendie had no relatives or friends, and even her maid was bought from a middleman.
"Don't worry, Madam. Mother will help take care of it."
With the Xie family around in Sucheng, nothing big can go wrong.
Xie Zhao thought with relief that it was good that Zhao Fendie did not return to Beijing, otherwise he would not know where to find some chance to seduce his wife, and he did not need it at the moment.
"You also think she shouldn't return to Beijing?"
Jiang Yuzhu is a woman, and she wants to hear Xie Zhao's opinion.
"Returning to Beijing is not a good solution."
Xie Zhao did not hide anything and said bluntly, "Even if she returns to Beijing, she will be alone. If the Zhao family knew about her relationship with the emperor, they would definitely pester her."
At present, although Da Qi has returned to Xiao She's hands, it is not so stable.
The emperor has already issued the order for a beauty contest, and the noble families in the capital are eager to make a move, wishing to send their legitimate daughters to the palace to win the emperor's favor.
"Yes, Fendie's personality is not suitable for being confined in the palace."
Even if Xiao She made a promise, how could a man's promise be trusted?
Jiang Yuzhu sighed regretfully and said, "It doesn't matter who that person is, why did it have to be the emperor?"
Xie Zhao was silent, and Xiao She said the same thing to him.
"Yuzhu, so you and I as a couple should cherish the present moment more."
Parents cannot ultimately accompany a person to the end; only a couple can stay together until old age.
Apart from the difficult beginning, things have been pretty smooth for the couple.
Sometimes Xie Zhao would feel uneasy and panic, worrying that God would take He Mei away. He always kept Jiang Yuzhu at the top of his heart.
"There are indeed many temptations out there, but those men are cunning and they are after your money, your beauty, your status. How can they compare to a husband?"
Xie Zhao struck while the iron was hot and began to preach.
Jiang Yuzhu almost fell for it. After going around in circles, she found out that he was waiting for her here!
Xie Zhao is indeed an expert at playing with people's hearts, and even Jiang Yuzhu was fooled.
"Then tell me, what do you want from me?"
If you don't want anything, then why should you be together?
Even if they are husband and wife, they are always bound together by the same interests.
When Xie Zhao said that he had no desires or requests, Jiang Yuzhu just wanted to laugh and wanted to tear off his hypocritical mask immediately.
"As a husband...I want your body."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Zhao held Jiang Yuzhu in his arms...
