After listening to Yu Jinshu's words, Wei Youqing's mood, which had been in a tangled mess, instantly became smooth.
This woman seems to have the power to heal people's hearts.
But judging by the tone of her words, I always feel that she is a little too generous.
"Are you willing to accept An Ning as your co-wife?"
Yu Jinshu shook his head: "I don't want to."
Wei You's chest suddenly felt tight, and his brows furrowed. "Why?"
Yu Jinshu still looked relaxed: "General, the father-in-law asked me to marry you to save me. I want to wait until the storm has passed, and then I will divorce you. Then you can marry An Ning as your legal wife."
Wei Youqing's frown deepened: "You want to divorce me?"
Yu Jinshu pursed his lips and smiled: "General, you forgot that on our wedding night, you told me that you would never touch me in this life."
She shrugged. "But I want to be a normal woman, find a man I like, marry him, have children, and live happily ever after. Obviously, you're not that."
Wei Youqing felt inexplicably lost.
She was right. When his father arranged for him to marry her, he was full of malice towards her and just wanted to drive her out and let her leave him.
I didn't even want to touch her at that time.
But for some reason, he was a little hesitant now.
Even listening to her words, a picture appeared in my mind. The picture was her hugging another man, with several beautiful children around her, as if she was living a peaceful life.
His heart suddenly overflowed with sourness.
At this time, the maid from the north courtyard ran over and said, "Young Madam, Madam invites you over."
Yu Jinshu turned around and followed the maid.
Wei Youqing thought something had happened to his father, so he hurried over.
Zhang was not in the bedroom, but waiting in the living room.
Yu Jinshu had just thought that something had happened to her father-in-law, but when she saw that he was going to the hall, she and Wei Youqing both breathed a sigh of relief.
When Zhang saw Yu Jinshu and his son come in, she went forward and held Yu Jinshu's hand.
"Jinshu, I'm getting old, and the household chores are becoming increasingly tiring. I want to hand it over to you, and from now on I'll stay with the master and enjoy a peaceful family life."
Zhang looked at Wei Youqing again and said with a smile, "You should hurry up and have a child while I'm still healthy and can help raise the child."
Yu Jinshu looked at Wei Youqing with an embarrassed expression.
Wei Youqing understood what Yu Jinshu was thinking.
She was just thinking about getting a divorce once the storm had blown over, so how could she care about the household, let alone having children?
Seeing Yu Jinshu's hesitation, Zhang assumed that she had never been a mistress before and would find these things difficult, so she said kindly, "Jinshu, don't worry about not being able to do it. I will teach you slowly in the early stages, and the housekeeper and the maids around me can also help you."
Yu Jinshu still didn't dare to agree.
Seeing his mother's sincerity, Wei Youqing said, "Jinshu, why don't you give it a try?"
Yu Jinshu looked at Zhang and said, "Mother-in-law, I'm worried that I'm too young to handle this important task. But Mother-in-law said she could help me in the early stages, so I'll give it a try. If I really can't do it, I can hand it back to you."
The last sentence was actually said to Wei Youqing.
Zhang was very happy to see Yu Jinshu agreed. She quickly asked the maid to call the housekeeper and asked the nanny to bring the account books, land deeds, property deeds, keys and other items from the accounting office.
Yu Jinshu's main purpose that day was to discuss with Zhang the financial affairs of the General's Mansion.
At night, after taking a bath, Yu Jinshu returned to the bedroom and saw Wei Youqing sitting in the room.
Before his father could no longer walk, Wei Youqing didn't dare go out to see Huang Ningxiang. Otherwise, if his father knew, he would be so angry that he would die.
Yu Jinshu sat in front of the dressing mirror and took off the hairpin and earrings on her head.
Then he stood up and took some agarwood from the incense burner and lit it.
While tending to the incense burner, she said to Wei Youqing, "General, don't worry. I will hand over the household affairs to my mother-in-law before I divorce you. Now that my mother-in-law wants me to help her share the burden, I can't refuse."
Wei Youqing didn't say anything. He watched her silently prepare the incense burner, then went to the bed and lay down under the quilt.
He slept on the floor again that night, but because the weather turned cold, he curled up in a ball in the middle of the night.
The next day, Yu Jinshu officially took over the household affairs and was very busy.
After five days, Wei Chufeng was really able to get up and walk, and he was in a very good mood.
He was in a good mood, mainly because he saw his son staying at home day and night, and sleeping in the same room with Jinshu every night.
Wei Youqing walked around the yard with his father for a few laps, then went to the front yard.
For three consecutive days, the guards in front of the General's Mansion received a letter from a boy, which was to be delivered to Wei Youqing.
Wei Youqing knew that this was a letter written to him by An Ning.
He took the letter written by An Ning from the guard at the door, opened it hurriedly and was furious.
Aning said in the letter that the incense shop earned three hundred and five taels of silver this month. As soon as her father came, he took away two hundred taels, her eldest brother took sixty taels, and the rest was taken by her second brother to the brothel.
Wei Youqing remembered what Yu Jinshu said. If he wanted to marry An Ning, he had to cut off contact with her father and brother.
Aning has been helping her family run the incense shop since she was ten years old. It has been seven years. Aning is smart and capable. She has managed the incense shop business very well over the years and made a lot of money.
But all the money I earned was squandered by my father and brother.
Speaking of which, the Huang family has repaid An Ning's kindness in raising her, so it is not impossible for her to sever her relationship with her father and brother.
But how can we break it?
Wei Youqing started to think about it.
