Even the usually thick-skinned Lü Tu was almost embarrassed. As a new-era youth who had received education in benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness, he never dared to imagine receiving such good treatment before.
But the overwhelming sense of happiness he was experiencing was so intense that Lu Tu was momentarily dazzled.
"My wife, why aren't you angry at all?"
Wang Miaoling chuckled and said, "Don't be angry. Our husband is putting the greater good before him and enduring humiliation. We are grateful to him, so why would we be angry?"
Jiang Wanyu nodded and said, "Yes, husband. We listened outside for two whole hours. We will definitely make up for all the effort you have put in for us and the villagers!"
Even Nangong Huiyu, who is usually quite jealous, raised an eyebrow at Lü Tu and said, "Husband, I'm not angry!"
Finally, Lu Tu looked at Song Yuxi, who had been silent all along. Unexpectedly, Song Yuxi chuckled and said, "Husband, you don't need to ask me anymore. Since you haven't forgotten your promise to me, then all of this is your doing for me, so naturally I won't be angry."
Lu Tu understood. It wasn't that their moral standards were low, but rather that in this era, they believed that Lu Tu should naturally marry more wives, and they wouldn't be so greedy as to force Lu Tu to stay by their side.
Moreover, as they just said, everything Lü Tu did was actually for the sake of this little family. After all, Zhao Qingyao's status was what it was, and the women present were all smart people. How could they not understand this?
Lu Tu asked Cui Guo to take some food to Zhao Qingyao and Xiao Huan. Cui Guo blushed and nodded, saying, "Yes, son-in-law."
Seeing her strange expression and shy demeanor, Lü Tu immediately made the connection: since they were all listening in the courtyard.
So they must know about Lü Tu and Xiao Huan's affair, which explains the way Cui Guo looked at Lü Tu.
No wonder there was a little bit of anticipation amidst the fear.
Lu Tu sighed helplessly: "It seems that having too much charm isn't a good thing either."
Hearing Lu Tu's narcissistic words, everyone burst into laughter, and the whole courtyard was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
Zhao Qingyao slept for a very long time. Lu Tu knocked on the door but no one answered. Finally, he pushed the door open and went in to see that the food Cui Guo had brought in had already been eaten by Zhao Qingyao and Xiao Huan. After looking at the two sleeping soundly, Lu Tu left the room.
Arriving at Song Yuxi's room, they pushed open the door and saw Song Yuxi sewing shoes for Lü Tu.
Lu Tu gently took the needle and thread from her hands and placed them aside: "Yu Xi, let's rest."
Song Yuxi looked at Lü Tu with a puzzled expression: "Today is the fifth day of the month, my husband should be at Miaoling's room."
Lu Tu waved his hand: "I want to stay with you!"
Upon hearing Lu Tu's words, Song Yuxi's eyes immediately reddened, and she threw herself into Lu Tu's arms, sobbing softly.
"My love, I feel so bad!"
Lu Tu patted her back comfortingly: "I'm sorry, my husband."
"No, it's because I miss my mother."
"I promised you I would avenge you. Zhao Qingyao is already my wife. I will kill the others."
"Alright! I trust you, my husband."
Lu Tu coaxed Song Yuxi for another half an hour, during which he recounted the scene of their first meeting at Caishikou. Finally, he showed off his singing voice, singing a love song for Song Yuxi for a while, which finally calmed her down.
In the end, a great battle was inevitable. In this battle, Song Yuxi put in an exceptionally strong effort, using all her strength to make Lü Tu feel pleasure as well.
Seeing this, Lü Tu was inexplicably moved. Song Yuxi was truly a good woman. She had actually been jealous during the day, but she had deliberately said those things to make Lü Tu feel better.
The fact that she is now so accommodating to Lü Tu shows that she has begun to resent the process of Lü Tu and Zhao Qingyao's pleasure.
Since that was the case, Lü Tu began to enjoy himself to the fullest. He was already incredibly strong, and Song Yuxi also possessed a family-inherited secret technique for couples.
Lu Tu was surprised to find that he was becoming more and more energetic, as if he had had enough sleep.
The seductive music lingered for a long time, and that night, Lu Tu's other wives all huddled under their blankets in the darkness, as if only in this way could they soothe the desires in their hearts.
The next morning, as usual, Lü Tu got up very early, ate a simple breakfast, and then went to Zhao Qingyao's room.
At this moment, Zhao Qingyao, having finished washing up with Xiao Huan's help, bowed to Lü Tu Yingying and said, "Greetings, husband."
Lu Tu quickly stepped forward and helped her up: "Why are you like this, my wife? We are husband and wife, and we are equals. Don't do this again, it hurts my heart."
Upon hearing Lu Tu's words, Zhao Qingyao's eyes widened in disbelief. She had lived within the high walls of the palace since childhood and had to learn a great deal of etiquette, including how husbands and wives should get along. After all, the mission of every princess was to marry into a foreign land for political purposes.
Seeing her somewhat dazed look, Lü Tu lowered his head and lightly touched her red lips: "What are you thinking about?"
Zhao Qingyao then came to her senses: "I was thinking about how I should repay my husband for being so good to me."
Lu Tu pinched her pert buttocks hard: "Then give me a few more big, fat sons."
Zhao Qingyao, startled by Lu Tu's sudden teasing, bit her lower lip and nodded shyly: "I'll do whatever you say, but you'll have to come to my room more often in the future."
Xiao Huan nodded and said, "Yes, sir. If you come often in the future, Xiao Huan will serve you."
Lu Tu patted Xiao Huan's head. After yesterday's battle, he found Xiao Huan much more pleasing to the eye. She was already quite good-looking, otherwise she wouldn't have become Zhao Qingyao's personal maid.
"Qingyao, I should have let you rest more, after all, you were so tired yesterday."
At this point, Lü Tu paused, and Zhao Qingyao's emotions, which she had finally managed to calm down, suddenly surged again: "Husband, shall we do it again?"
Upon hearing this, Lü Tu pulled her into his arms: "You can have it anytime you want, but not today. We have important business to attend to today."
Hearing that there was something important to do, Zhao Qingyao finally came to her senses. She unconsciously licked her lips and nodded, "I will do whatever you say, my husband. Qingyao is already yours."
Seeing that Zhao Qingyao seemed to have him completely under her control, Lü Tu felt a strong sense of conquest rising within him: "Qingyao, I need you and Prince Duan to help me seize military power in the entire Wuchuan!"
After listening, Zhao Qingyao pondered for a moment, then quickly regained her princess-like demeanor and said firmly, "We are husband and wife. Even if you didn't say anything, I would still help you. Husband, please wait a moment, I'll go and do it!"
