Two days later,
A luxurious carriage slowly drove in from the city gate. The sound of the carriage was like raindrops tapping on the gleaming white marble. In the golden sunlight, the elegant silhouette of the carriage lingered on the ground.
The carriage was covered in expensive and exquisite silk on all four sides, and the gold-inlaid and jewel-encrusted doors and windows were covered by a light blue silk curtain, preventing those outside the carriage from seeing inside.
They drove slowly south of the city and finally stopped at a large five-courtyard house.
A slender, jade-like hand emerged from the carriage. She moved with delicate steps, her fair wrist peeking out from beneath the light gauze.
Her eyes, like clear spring waters, sparkled with longing; her hair, styled in a low bun, was adorned with a jade dragon and phoenix hairpin. Her delicate, fair face was more beautiful than any flower; her fingers were like slender scallions, her lips like vermilion; every frown and smile captivated the soul.
After getting off the carriage, he walked gracefully towards the house.
After the person had completely disappeared, Xue Pinggui emerged from around the corner.
Ever since he learned that the eldest daughter of the Pingxi Jiedushi would be coming from out of town in the next couple of days, Xue Pinggui had been keeping an eye on the city gates. He finally caught up with her just now.
When the eldest daughter of the Pingxi Jiedushi's family stepped out of the carriage, a look of amazement flashed in Xue Pinggui's eyes.
I never expected that this legitimate daughter from out of town would be so stunningly beautiful, no less so than Qingyi from Yunjin Tower!
His desire to win over the son-in-law of the Pingxi Jiedushi (military governor) reached an unprecedented level.
The reason I came ahead of time is to find out the character of the eldest daughter of the Pingxi Jiedushi's family.
From what I just saw, I could tell that the eldest daughter of the Pingxi Jiedushi's family was quite delicate and lacked the ruggedness that comes with growing up on the frontier. This made me less resistant to her.
After all, men are drawn to delicate beauties; they simply can't appreciate the ruggedness of women.
Although he could take concubines and other beauties after everything was done, it would be even better if his wife was a delicate beauty!
Thinking of this, Xue Pinggui's lips curled up, his face full of wickedness.
He then left, as the most urgent task was to find a way to get close to the eldest daughter of the Pingxi Jiedushi family!
On the other side,
As the door closed,
"Qingyue, everything has been explained before. You are now the legitimate daughter of the Pingxi Jiedushi. Your mission is to find the person you just saw through the curtain in the carriage. You don't need to do anything special. Just cooperate with Xue Pinggui when the time is right."
Lanzhu, the maid who had been supporting Qingyue, suddenly changed her demeanor from being respectful at the door. She raised her head and spoke to Qingyue with a serious expression.
Lan Zhu was originally a female bodyguard specially trained in the secret guard camp, with the purpose of training her for the women in the family.
So that they won't be helpless and alone after leaving home or getting married, without any help of their own, and not only will their dowry be forcibly taken away, but they might even lose their lives!
This time, Mo Qian instructed Lan Zhu to go to Qingping County, a hundred miles away, to find a family surnamed Zhang.
In the original owner's lifetime, there was an event that caused a sensation within a hundred miles.
There was a family named Zhang in Qingping County. Their only son was tricked into going to a gambling den and ended up owing three hundred taels of silver.
After the Zhang family sold their house, they were still short fifty taels of silver.
Desperate and at a loss, the Zhang family, seeing their beautiful daughter, decided to take advantage of her.
Although they loved their daughters too, their sons were the pillars of the family and would continue the family line. If they didn't have the money to pay the gambling den, their sons would have their arms cut off!
So, despite her reluctance, she disregarded her daughter's tears and wanted to sell her to the Cuihong Brothel in the county town, which offered the most money!
Just as the Cuihonglou family was about to come and take people away, the youngest son of the rice shop next to the Zhang family stepped forward.
He stole fifty taels from his home and gave them to the person in charge of the Zhang family, treating it as a purchase of Qingyue.
The Zhang family, seeing that they had indeed raised enough silver and also out of love for their daughter, accepted the fifty taels of silver.
It turns out that Qingyue and the youngest son of the rice shop had grown up together since childhood. When they were teenagers, they developed feelings for each other and only thought that when Qingyue passed the imperial examination, they would inform their parents and get married.
Before Qingyue could even pass the imperial examination, her younger brother was tricked into going to a gambling den and incurred gambling debts of several hundred taels!
Furthermore, because she had to sell her family property to pay off Qingyue's younger brother's gambling debts, she saw that the Zhang family was also raising money to pay off their gambling debts. She then set her sights on Qingyue, intending to raise the remaining debts by selling her.
Now, the youngest son of the rice shop couldn't sit still any longer. His wife was about to be sold by his father-in-law, how could that be allowed!
So, without telling his family, he took fifty taels of silver from where the family kept their money, gave it to Qingyue's father, and took Qingyue home. Only then did he feel at ease.
At this point, the couple should have returned home together, lived happily ever after, and enjoyed a simple and blissful life!
Although the family of the youngest son of the rice shop was not happy because he had stolen fifty taels of silver.
However, thinking about it, Qingyue was someone I had watched grow up since she was a child, and it was pitiful that she had encountered such a thing. In addition, my youngest son liked that girl Qingyue.
Qingyue was a rare beauty, even in the capital, so the parents of the youngest son of the rice shop were initially unhappy, but they gradually came to terms with it.
If things continue as they are, Qingyue and the youngest son of the rice shop will be able to live a happy and harmonious life together.
Unfortunately, fate is jealous of beauty. After Qingyue married the youngest son of the rice shop family, they lived happily ever after.
But one day, the youngest son of the rice shop suddenly felt something was wrong with him. Starting from his hands, some ulcers gradually appeared on his body.
I went to see a doctor, but they couldn't give me a clear answer.
The youngest son of the rice shop became increasingly anxious because the ulcer was slowly spreading to his face, leaving no good skin on his upper body. Although it was not fatal, it was just an ulcer.
But the once handsome young man naturally couldn't accept that his face had been disfigured for some unknown reason!
Gradually, he became depressed, afraid to go out and meet outsiders, and his temper became increasingly irritable.
Later, by chance, it was discovered that the reason why the youngest son of the rice shop had ulcers on his upper body was actually due to Qingyue, the wife of the rice shop owner who had just married into the family!
Upon examining Qingyue, the doctor discovered that she carried a pathogen that causes skin ulceration.
The reason why the youngest son of the rice shop developed skin ulcers was ultimately because he was infected with the pathogen when he had sex with Qingyue!
Later, after careful investigation by the doctor, it was discovered that this pathogen is only transmitted to males and not females!
In other words, unless the young master of the rice shop is fond of the southern wind, the germs will be contained to him! This is on the premise that Qingyue remains faithful to him!
This has now turned all the blame on Qingyue!
