Chapter 273 Vicious
Zeng Mingzhu figured it out.
Young Master Qi smiled and embraced her, affectionately and teasingly asking her, "How did you come to your senses?" Zeng Mingzhu fixed him with a deep gaze, her eyelids drooping slightly as she suppressed the hatred and malice in her heart and sighed, "You are my husband. As your wife, I should naturally satisfy you with what I want. After all, we already have two concubines, so what if there is one more? It won't shake my position as the principal wife. Why should I be so petty about it and hurt the relationship between you and me?"
Young Master Qi was overjoyed. He couldn't help but hold her hand and kissed it repeatedly. He smiled happily and said, "You are indeed a virtuous wife. No one else can be as insightful as you. I knew you would figure it out, and it turned out to be true. Don't worry, you are so virtuous. The love between you and me will only grow deeper. I will only value you more and more. No other concubine can compare to you."
Although she knew her husband's words were at least eighty percent lies, Zeng Mingzhu still felt somewhat pleased and felt much better. She couldn't help but glare at him and burst out laughing, "You're such a smooth talker, you only know how to flatter me."
Seeing her cute and coquettish look, Young Master Qi couldn't help but hug her and kiss her affectionately. "I won't coax you, really. I won't coax such a good wife like mine."
Zeng Mingzhu giggled, but before she could finish her laughter, she heard her husband, whom she relied on for her whole life, kiss her and ask vaguely with a smile: "Madam, how are you going to help me with this matter? Haha."
Zeng Mingzhu's confused and restless heart instantly turned cold as ice.
She gritted her teeth, suppressing her hatred, and smiled, "That's easy. Let's go to Qingshan County and see what happens when we get there. She's a country girl, completely ignorant. I'll go to her house and explain things to her personally. She won't be so ungrateful."
Young Master Qi said hurriedly: "Then you must talk to her nicely, don't scare her, and don't threaten her."
Zeng Mingzhu wanted to chop Xu Zhichun into pieces, but she pretended to be calm and laughed lightly, "Husband, are you feeling sorry for me already?"
Young Master Qi couldn't help but think of Xu Zhichun's cold words and resistance towards him. His heart was moved and itchy. He said with a smile: "Don't be jealous. What I want is her willingness. That's fun. What's the fun in threatening her?"
He was cold and resistant to me at first, but in the end he changed his mind and became devoted and passionate about me. How exciting!
Zeng Mingzhu smiled and said, "My husband is really thoughtful."
No one was so attentive to her.
Young Master Qi thought she was simply praising him and laughed out loud.
After a night of passion, Zeng Mingzhu woke up the next morning and found her hand gently pressing on her lower abdomen. She wondered if this place was already pregnant with a little life.
Cuixiang was indignant on her behalf. "A little widow from the countryside, yet she's so arrogant! She doesn't even realize how worthless she is! She's just lucky enough to make a few bucks, but whether she can keep them is still a mystery. Our Qi family is related to the provincial governor, and the eldest young master is the future head of the family. It's a blessing for her to fall in love with her. She doesn't want me to look at her, but it's just that she's unlucky and can't handle it."
Zeng Mingzhu sneered: "The young master is in high spirits now, why bother spoiling his fun? Don't say these words."
"Yes, Madam."
Zeng Mingzhu initially felt that it was shameful for her husband to be obsessed with such a lowly woman, but now she has come to terms with it.
Once you bring the person into the house, won’t it be up to you to control him?
By then, won’t everything she has now become hers?
By then, it would be useless even if my second brother and his wife were good at pleasing my mother-in-law.
Isn’t it that whoever has the money has the final say?
When everything in Xu's hands becomes his and she is no longer valuable, he will deal with her severely.
It is too easy to deal with a concubine who has no background or support and a not-so-good origin.
As for what her husband said, "Don't threaten her, don't scare her" and "Take your time", well, she didn't believe him at all!
How could she possibly coax and please Xu? With just one packet of medicine, everything would be fine.
Isn't it true that what men really want is just the little things in the boudoir? No matter how nice the words are, isn't that what they want in the end? Just give it to him directly, no matter what he says, he won't object at all.
Back to that day, when Xu Zhichun and the others returned to Qingshan County, Liang Mingxuan said, "Sister-in-law, you guys should go back to the village first. My master asked me to go to the yamen when I have time to tell Lord Lu a message. I'll ask Master Shao to help me hire a car. We'll be away for so many days this time, so you should go back early and don't have to see me off."
Xu Zhichun was a little worried. "That's not good. It's okay. We don't need to rush right now. Let's send you back to the county school first."
Liang Mingxuan insisted on not doing so.
Xu Zhichun was ultimately unable to persuade him, knowing that he was a steady and sensible person, not the kind of kid who would be cheated out of a piece of candy. The county school was not far from the county town, so he had no choice but to remind him to be careful, and the four of them went back first.
Zeng Xiaoyan enviously praised: "The little prodigy is so sensible, thoughtful and capable. Sister Zhichun is so lucky!"
Xu Zhichun was never modest on this point and laughed heartily.
Liang Mingxuan did not go to the county government office. He watched Xu Zhichun and others go away on the mule cart, then turned and walked towards a residential area in the north of the county town.
Liang Mingxuan followed the address his elder brother had left him, walked through the crisscrossing alleys, came to a narrow door, and knocked on it.
Luckily, the door opened and I didn't have to come again.
"Mingxuan!"
"Brother Yu."
There was peace under the rule of County Magistrate Lu, and there were very few criminals. Captain Yu also had a lot of free time. For most of the month, he would go to the yamen in the morning and go home to lie down at noon. If there was any official work to be done, his subordinates would come and call him.
He happily invited Liang Mingxuan home, "Come on, come in, come in and talk."
Captain Yu is a foreigner. In the past, he made friends with Liang Minglang, who was a bodyguard. Liang Minglang saved his life, and the two had similar personalities. Before Liang Minglang enlisted in the army, he solemnly entrusted Liang Mingxuan to Captain Yu, hoping that he could help if anything happened.
Captain Yu patted his chest and agreed.
Even Xu Zhichun didn't know about this.
Before, Liang Mingxuan passed the examination for Tongsheng, and Captain Yu was happy for him, but he did not interact with him openly, and no one knew about their relationship.
Sometimes it is easier and more manageable to keep relationships hidden.
This was Liang Mingxuan's first visit, and Captain Yu knew he wouldn't just come over for no reason. He invited him in, poured him a cup of tea, and placed it in front of him before asking, "Mingxuan, what happened?"
Liang Mingxuan looked at him, his dark eyes clear and calm, trusting yet hesitant.
