Chapter 60 Man Lai



Two people who are unequal from the beginning cannot even be equal in personality, let alone respect and other things.

Only when he is willing to pamper you and tolerate you, you are qualified to talk to him about dignity, but when he is unwilling, the illusion you have will be shattered in an instant and disappear without a trace.

everything,

It's all based on what he wants.

Chen Wei hated this kind of thing. As long as he wanted to, because she had already anticipated this result, she wanted to turn his thoughts into that he didn't dare, he didn't have the qualifications, and he didn't have the ability!

Just like the matter of Master Dong hiring someone to ruin her reputation.

She doesn't have to cry for help or beg for mercy, nor does she have to break down and explain, cry out for injustice, or be deprived of her rights afterwards.

She could use the moves she had learned, a side kick, to break the male apprentice's foundation and sever the thread of fate that was holding her captive.

"girl."

"Tomorrow is the Marquis's wife's birthday banquet. The decorations in the mansion are all ready. This is the invitation that the wife handed to you. It clearly states the rules for you to pay attention to."

"The cake shop is ready too. I'm learning quickly. I'm just waiting for the news of the opening."

"The matter of the male apprentice at the martial arts school has also been resolved. Pan Xi hired a few children to keep an eye on him. Last night, he really did meet with Master Dong. That incident was a setup by Master Dong."

"I just watched the opera troupe in the backyard. I've memorized the lines, so there won't be any mistakes."

"That's right, there's one more thing......"

"The Concubine Man whom you drove away earlier has been taken back by the Marquis."

In the boudoir in the side courtyard before the birthday banquet, Xiaoman reported the information she had obtained to Chen Wei, and the words of Aunt Man returning home fell.

Chen Wei didn't have time to make any move!

Aunt Zhao, who was holding a brush and practicing calligraphy with Chen Wei every day, suddenly raised her head.

"Auntie Man is back home?!" Auntie Zhao immediately glanced at Chen Wei.

I found that Chen Wei's face was indifferent, neither happy nor angry.

It seemed that she didn't care at all about Aunt Man returning to the mansion to compete for favor. Aunt Zhao was suddenly a little angry: "Why did the Marquis suddenly take her back?"

"She's always been against you and always picking on you."

"If she hadn't instigated discord in front of the old lady, she wouldn't have been so prejudiced against you. Weiwei, what exactly is going on between you and the Marquis?"

"He brought Aunt Man back home, do you really not care?"

Chen Wei concentrated on drawing and replied nonchalantly, "Instead of worrying about her, it's better to worry about the effectiveness of the advertisement. How much money will be brought in on the opening day?"

"Aunt Zhao, I'm not afraid to tell you that I will leave the Marquis' Mansion sooner or later."

"I've inquired outside, and I've found that houses in the capital with good locations and good governance cost around three to five thousand taels each. If a woman wants to set up a household, she must be a widow or single. I have both."

"Including the management and other expenses, I can earn at least 10,000, and at most 20,000 taels of silver. I will have the confidence to leave here."

There is another point that Chen Wei did not point out.

Leaving the Marquis is equivalent to losing protection. In this era where power is everything, a "weak woman" without a backer will be miserable, and those men will stare at her with golden eyes.

They use every possible means, including robbery, causing trouble, extortion, slander, etc.

It is difficult for a female shopkeeper who is out of place to keep the store.

so,

Before leaving the Marquis' Mansion, Chen Wei would find a name for the shop and give up some profits to a powerful young lady to occupy it. If things go well... the Prime Minister's Mansion would be a good choice.

"You, you...are you really going to leave?" Aunt Zhao wanted to be shocked, but she calmed down halfway through.

I have the courage to be divorced and fight for a future.

How could Weiwei be willing to stay in the Marquis' Mansion for the rest of her life?

"So you're giving up on the deep feelings you have for the Marquis? The Marquis is actually quite devoted. He slept with me because he was drunk and I seduced him. You're the only one in his heart."

"Afterwards, I kept apologizing to you, feeling guilty about it, and saying I regretted sleeping with me."

"Honestly, if he treats me this well, I won't leave. Have you really thought it through? If you leave the Marquis, you might not find a husband who loves you more than him in the future."

Loyal?

Guilt?

Promise that it won't happen again?

Throughout the ages, these excuses for escaping are exactly the same.

Chen Wei found these words funny: "Do you really believe that he slept with you because he was drunk? If he was really drunk, his mind would be so confused that he couldn't even stand up."

"He was simply driven by lust at the time, with no time for trial and error. He figured, what's the big deal? What else could I do except make a scene? He had nothing to lose. He was just trying to coax me into making some promises afterwards."

"Bringing Aunt Man back to the mansion now is just to force me to surrender, but I don't even want to stay in this mansion anymore, so I don't care about who he favors."

"My mother once told me that nothing in her daughter's life is necessary. If I rely on others and lose, I will be mentally exhausted, doubt my previous choices a hundred times, and regret it for the rest of my life."

"But if I lose on my own, I can just say I tried my best and have no regrets."

"After leaving Xie Yuchuan, I don't need anyone to love me. It's enough for me to love myself."

This was the first time Aunt Zhao heard such words.

It's the first time,

Witnessing that there are mothers like that in this world...

Aunt Zhao suddenly remembered her mother's teachings to her: she must be gentle and virtuous, must marry a good husband, must give birth to three big fat sons, must...it turns out that nothing is a must?

All choices,

All the process.

As long as you have no regrets, you have no regrets.

“Bang, bang, bang!!!”

Sudden.

There was a knock on the door.

Then,

Aunt Man's pinched voice then rang out: "Is Sister Chen here? It's me, Aunt Man. I just returned home last night and came to visit you today."

The door was not closed. Aunt Man waited for a while, but did not hear Chen Wei's chaotic quarrel. She frowned in confusion.

What happened to this Shen Wei?

Hearing that he had entered the mansion and deliberately came to visit and show off, he was indifferent?

Aunt Man suppressed her confusion and tidied her clothes with her hands. Her fingers were rough and calloused. Looking at the calluses, she remembered the hard days when she was sent to the farm.

With a belly full of resentment, Aunt Man pushed the door open and walked in: "What are you doing in your room, sister? Are you displeased with me and are you angry because I came into the house?"

“Yo.”

"Sister Zhao is here too? Still practicing calligraphy?"

"If you want to practice calligraphy, go practice with your wife. Your wife is both talented and beautiful, and is the most noble lady in the capital. Why are you practicing with Sister Shen? She doesn't even know the rules, so how can she understand poetry and songs?"
