Chapter 285 Mr. Zhao’s Heartwarming Behavior
Gao Wanxin was given time to prepare, and when she decided to go to Jiangcheng, Zhao Xuan also went to Jiangcheng with her.
Zhao Xuan had no property in Jiangcheng, but now he bought a yard for Gao Wanxin.
Gao Wanxin, however, felt that this was not necessary at all.
She can also rent a house to live in.
Zhao Xuan was worried.
He bought a small courtyard and gave the title deed to Gao Wanxin. He also bought some land and a farm here. If she wanted, she could continue to run a rouge shop.
Gao Wanxin looked at Zhao Xuan, who had accompanied her to Jiangcheng for nearly ten days. To be honest, she felt a little distressed.
"Sir, please don't worry about it. There are maids, a nanny, and a coachman in this yard. You have arranged everything. I can take care of the rest myself."
"You haven't been in the capital for more than ten days. Is this possible?"
Normally, this is not possible.
But now Emperor Showa was seriously ill and had canceled the morning court session. He would summon his ministers if there was anything. Zhao Xuan did not want to be summoned, so he claimed to the public that he was ill. There was no need to worry if he could not go for half a month, let alone ten days. At most, it would make Emperor Showa unhappy.
Maybe it was because Emperor Showa was in poor health, so his mood was inexplicable.
Zhao Xuan didn't want to serve him anymore.
But there is no need to tell Gao Wanxin this reason.
"Don't worry, I can handle it."
Zhao Xuan said, and asked Gao Wanxin to sit down.
He poured the brewed flower tea into her bowl. She was pregnant and couldn't drink tea, so she could only drink some flower tea. He then drank it too.
"What I said before still counts. As long as you are willing, whether it is before or after the birth of the child, if I say I will marry you, I will marry you."
Gao Wanxin chuckled, "This is also good."
"Sir, you are already at this age, it is quite good that you do not acknowledge this child."
At least his reputation was preserved.
Zhao Xuan, however, looked at Gao Wanxin with a cold expression, "It's my child, why wouldn't I acknowledge him? I'm indulging you now only because I'm thinking of you. Don't really think that I don't want to acknowledge the child."
Gao Wanxin immediately smiled apologetically, "I know, sir, I'm sorry."
Never mind, she shouldn't have said those things.
As for whether it was a lasting honor or not, Gao Wanxin didn't dare to mention it.
Zhao Xuan is old, and he would feel uncomfortable if she brought it up often.
"Sir, when will you leave North City?"
Zhao Xuan asked, "Are you so eager for me to leave North City?"
After she got pregnant, she insisted on coming to Beicheng. Was it because she knew someone in Beicheng?
Zhao Xuan thought that he had to ask someone to investigate this matter.
I hope she has a mistress outside behind his back.
"Wanxin, why did you choose to come to North City? Do you know anyone here?" Zhao Xuan asked, then added, "I'm worried about you, so I wanted to ask."
"I don't know anyone in North City. If I do know anyone, it's that I have a cousin who married here."
The man her cousin married was originally the one her mother found for her.
But it was snatched away by my cousin.
After my cousin got married, she followed her husband's family to the north city. The Du family was a business family, selling furs and silk fabrics, and they were quite well-off.
However, since her father passed away, her mother took her away from the Gao family. She knew nothing about the Gao family's situation or her cousin's life after she got married.
"I think I know someone."
"I won't look for her. I can live well on my own. Besides, North City is so big, how could we have met by chance?"
Gao Wanxin said with a smile.
Zhao Xuan hummed, "Have you had any stomach discomfort recently?"
It has been ten days since they came together, and he has not touched her once. He is worried that she is in the early stages of pregnancy and the fetus is unstable.
The doctor came a few days ago and said that after three months, there is no problem with having sex.
Gao Wanxin thought that Zhao Xuan was concerned about her and the baby in her belly.
"Everything is fine. Although I'm three months pregnant, I don't look pregnant. I can do things easily now and I don't feel too tired."
"That's good."
As Zhao Xuan spoke, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
Gao Wanxin still didn't understand what he meant by "that's good".
When it was night, the two of them washed up and went to bed.
She had just laid down when she saw the old man Zhao Xuan coming up to her. Although Zhao Xuan was over 40 years old, he had maintained a very good figure. He had a good appearance, but with wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, he still looked elegant and refined.
"Sir, you are..."
"Since you, I haven't touched anyone else. Even when you're not around, I haven't looked for other women. If I don't give it to you this time, I don't know how long it will take for you to give it to me next time. Are you willing to do that?"
Gao Wanxin said, "I didn't ask you to remain a virgin for me."
"I asked for it myself. What? You're still not happy. You have to find another woman to be happy?"
This girl is a bit too stupid.
"No, I just didn't expect that the adults would go to this extent for me."
Is it because I’m too old to play anymore?
If she remembered correctly, when she followed her mother into the Zhao family, she heard that her cousin was very brave in the backyard.
But she never expected that the little news she had just heard as gossip would actually happen to her.
It is said that women are as fierce as wolves and tigers when they are thirty, but in fact, men are also quite fierce when they are forty.
It couldn't hurt her, but it made her feel very comfortable.
Zhao Xuan asked her in a muffled voice.
Gao Wanxin was honest and told him directly.
"Well, the adults are very good. I think they are experienced. I am not as skilled as them."
She was serious about what she said.
Zhao Xuan's face darkened. "If I had known I would meet you later, I would not have touched any of the women before me."
Gao Wanxin stared at Zhao Xuan, she didn't expect him to say such a thing.
In fact, she never asked Zhao Xuan to do anything for her?
She thought it was quite normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines.
Like her parents, they were also loving, but her father still had concubines, just not many, only one or two.
A man like Zhao Xuan has a good family background, good looks, and great abilities. As long as he wants, he can get women everywhere. Why should she expect Zhao Xuan to fall in love with her?
She naturally didn't ask for it.
Maidong told her that if you meet someone you like, you will feel jealous.
She wasn't jealous, maybe because she didn't like adults enough.
"I'm distracted."
The man bit her earlobe lightly, with a hint of displeasure in his voice. At this time, she still dared to be distracted.
Gao Wanxin frowned and felt pain from his bite, trying to push him away with both hands.
The man didn't move, so Gao Wanxin whispered that it hurt a little.
The man felt sorry for her because of her pitiful appearance, and quickly let her go.
After half an hour, the two finally calmed down and prepared to rest.
Zhao Xuan called the maid to bring hot water.
Gao Wanxin wanted to get up and serve. In the past, she was the one who took the initiative to get water and serve. There were also a few times when she really didn't want to move, and Zhao Xuan would get up to help her.
In bed, he has no airs.
She thought that Zhao Xuan treated other women the same way.
Later he said, you are the only one who still needs my service afterwards.
She was happy in her heart, but she didn't like it too much.
"I'll do it."
He brought hot water.
Gao Wanxin blushed and said thank you.
Zhao Xuan felt that Gao Wanxin did not love him. If she loved him, she would want to be with him, but she only wanted to run away.
After dealing with the matters in North City, Zhao Xuan went back.
His subordinates sent a letter saying that Emperor Showa was dying.
Not only him, but even Chen Jingyan will be recalled.
"Sir, I have already inquired clearly. It was the chief eunuch in the palace who served the Empress that said that the Prince of Mobei also wanted to return to the capital, but the Emperor wanted him to bring his wife and children with him."
"I don't think so. Princess Huayang is about to give birth. If she goes through all this trouble, is she going to give birth on the road?"
Can Chen Jingyan come back?
If Chen Jingyan came back, then Emperor Zhaohe would probably be in trouble. All his officials above the third rank would have to enter the palace to observe mourning and would not be able to go home for half a month.
Fortunately, he had settled Gao Wanxin's affairs in advance.
