Chapter 506 Calculation
Qin Huiyin rode on horseback and watched Tang Yichen and Tang Luwu's convoy leave the capital.
Qin Huiyin said angrily: "Brother is really too much. I said I wanted to go with him, but he disagreed. Then Lu Wu said she wanted to go, so he agreed."
"The eldest lady also understands the affairs of the military factory. With her help, the eldest master will be more capable."
"Don't I know better?"
"If the young lady leaves, who will take care of the food city's business? The eldest young lady can take care of it, but there are many difficult matters that can only be handled when the young lady is here. Apart from other things, the young lady's words are more effective in the military department. In addition, Mr. Song can't bear to part with the young lady and will never want to separate from her."
Qin Huiyin touched her cheek and said, "We've been apart before. It's not like I won't come back. I'll come back after I've dealt with the matter."
"It could take five or six months at the fastest, or a year at the slowest. Master Song must be extremely worried! Fortunately, Miss didn't go, otherwise Master Song would have been waiting for her for a long time."
"Girl, you are becoming more and more unruly now. You even dare to make fun of me." Qin Huiyin poked Zhilan's forehead and said, "Actually, I still want to go to the border to have a look. I know the border is difficult, so if I have the chance, I want to do something for more people."
"Miss, you should think about doing something for Master Song!" Su Jin came over, "Master Song has been watching you for as long as you've been standing here. He's afraid that you'll follow him."
Qin Huiyin turned around and saw Song Ruize riding a horse not far away, with several soldiers from the military beside him. When she looked over, he squeezed his horse's belly and came over.
"Su Jin said that you have been keeping an eye on me, afraid that I would follow you to the border." Qin Huiyin teased him.
"Well, this is what you would do. I do have this concern." Song Ruize said, "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."
Today, Mrs. Jia, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, held a banquet, saying it was her grandson's third birthday, and she sent out invitations to the wives of officials to come for a drink.
The last time Li Taohua attended a banquet, Mrs. Jia wanted to make friends with her. Now that she received the invitation, she came with gifts. However, Lu Wu followed Tang Yichen to the border, and Qin Huiyin was busy and could not be seen, so she went to the banquet alone.
It was just a small banquet after all, and no one paid attention to who came and who didn't. Even if someone mentioned it, they would just make up an excuse that their girl was not feeling well and get away with it.
Halfway through the banquet, Li Taohua had drunk too much, so Madam Jia sent someone to take her to a side room to rest and also brought her some sobering soup.
"Miss Runiang, your mistress seems to be about to take a nap, why don't you go and have something to eat too?" said the maid from the Jia mansion to Runiang.
Ru Niang looked back at Li Taohua who was resting on the bed, shook her head and said, "No, I want to stay here to watch over my wife."
"Miss Runiang, there are servants here. If Madam wakes up, we will take care of her."
"Thank you for your kindness, sister, but our lady is used to ordering me around. If it were someone else, she would be embarrassed to order me around."
"Okay, I'll go get you some food, and you can eat while you wait, or you'll starve."
The maid brought tea and snacks. Ru Niang sat at the table, pinched a piece of snack and ate it, drinking the sweet tea. However, her head became heavier and her eyelids became heavier.
The door creaked open from the outside, and a tall figure walked into the room.
The man walked to the bedside and looked at the beautiful woman lying there, like a drunk peony, with an infatuated look in his eyes: "Even her drunken appearance is exactly the same as Qingyi's."
He reached out and touched Li Taohua's cheek.
Li Taohua opened her eyes in a daze, her vision blurred, and she said angrily, "You stinky man, you are so old, but you are still so dishonest all day long."
Jiang Yuyu looked at her charming appearance, and his heart, which had not beaten violently for a long time, began to beat wildly again.
"Qingyi."
This clear light made Li Taohua sober up a little. She took another closer look and realized that the man in front of her was not the glutton Tang Dafu, but the life-threatening ghost Jiang Zhiyu.
She hurriedly sat up and pushed herself out of bed: "Who are you? Why are you here? Someone... come..."
"Madam, are you really going to ask someone to come in?" Jiang Zhiyu covered Li Taohua's mouth and whispered in her ear, "If someone sees us here, will your reputation still be in jeopardy?"
It smells so good...
How come she is as sweet as Qingyi
He had someone investigate her. The previous information was not very complete, but it was clear that she remarried two men with her daughter.
Her current husband is just a country bumpkin who only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day long and does nothing serious. The reason why her family can become prosperous is not only because Tang Yichen, the top scholar, changed his family, but also because the stepdaughter brought by Li Taohua is a business genius. As for the other two children, they are also capable, but Tang Dafu is a fool.
"Let me go!" Li Taohua pushed Jiang Zhiyu away. "Why shouldn't I scream? I'm just an ignorant woman, shameless as hell. What about you? You look like someone of some status, right? If people knew that you were humiliating a married woman here, and that this woman was the mother of an official, how would they look at you? Do you still want to keep your family's reputation?"
Jiang Zhiyu looked at the rude woman in front of him.
Her eyes were so sharp, not at all as gentle as Qingyi's. She and Qingyi had nothing in common except their faces. But he just couldn't take his eyes away.
"Don't be angry, ma'am. I just broke in here unintentionally and didn't mean to offend anyone." Jiang Zhiyu said gently.
A look of sarcasm flashed in Li Taohua's eyes.
Although Jiang Zhiyu is not young anymore, he is indeed a man of great potential. When she was young, she was bewitched by this face and really thought that he was special to her. She was devoted to him for many years.
However, her eyes have been healed.
She has seen truly affectionate couples and lovers who truly love each other, so of course she knows what a good lover is like.
"Since you have come in by mistake, please leave this place." Li Taohua gave him a way out, wanting him to disappear from her sight.
"Madam, you look exactly like my beloved." Jiang Zhiyu looked at her lovingly, "When I see Madam, I always feel dazed."
Li Taohua lowered her eyes, frowned and said, "Sir, please respect yourself. You look quite old, how can you be so shameless as to say such offensive words?"
Qingyi would never say such rude words. She wanted him to know that she was not Qingyi, so she said whatever was offensive and rude.
"Jiang didn't mean to offend you, but I can't control my heart. I'll take my leave today and apologize to my wife another day."
