Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 67
"Tan'er went to Lanxiang Garden?"

"Yes, let her go early this morning. She also likes to go, and indeed learned a lot."

The one who answered the conversation was He Heng's wife Dong Shi, a thin and beautiful woman, 34 to [-] years old, who was four to five points similar to He Tan, just like the grown-up He Tan.

"The female celebrity has advanced skills, and it will be easy to find a husband-in-law in the future." He Heng smiled, quite satisfied with this decision, which not only allowed He Tan to learn something, but also fulfilled his promise to Zhuang Xun.

"What kind of husband is she looking for? She can only marry Mr. Zhuang!" Mrs. Dong interrupted He Heng's thoughts.

"Mr. Zhuang has already married a wife, and he still likes his wife very much. I also want Tan'er to marry Mr. Zhuang, but the two of them, alas." He Heng reminded that he was full of regrets about this matter.

"I thought you were enlightened, and you sent your daughter to study with Mrs. Wei in order to prepare for Tan'er to become a concubine later, but I didn't expect it to be out of will." Dong sighed softly, with a few strands of sadness on her face.

"You want Tan'er to be Mr. Zhuang's concubine?" He Heng said loudly in stress.

"Can't you?" Dong Shi picked him up.

"Okay!" He Heng agreed without any hesitation.

"But Mr. Zhuang will definitely not agree. He treats Tan'er as his younger sister. Although Tan'er doesn't like him, he still treats Mr. Zhuang as an older brother." He Heng smiled wryly. Believable, but the situation is that the two people just don't see eye to eye.

In Zhuang Xun's eyes, He Tan is just a slut, a mere junior high school student, and in He Tan's eyes, Zhuang Xun is also a womanizer.

Although she was also very grateful to Zhuang Xun, and even said that if Zhuang Xun really asked her to marry, she would be willing to repay her kindness.

But if you like it, forget it.

"I was stimulated, and I don't blame her. It was my concubine who was too anxious to rescue you at the time. She had never seen an ugly man before. She was treated as a commodity, asked for prices, and looked at her with lewd eyes. She substituted this disgust into Mr. Zhuang, it was normal, at that time Mr. Zhuang was looking for fun, his eyes were a little greedy, he promised to let go of the concubine but hesitated again and again, and he was reluctant to part with the concubine." Dong sighed and said helplessly.

He Tan told her, expressed this kind of disgust from the bottom of his heart, and she also tried to persuade He Tan to untie his knot.

For example, these are just the desires of a normal man. Mr. Zhuang is already a gentleman. Others have already been wiped out and their innocence is lost. Mr. Zhuang is the benefactor of the family, and we must thank him.

The response I got was like this: "I am also very grateful to Brother Xun. I also know what would happen to our family if there was no Brother Xun. Maybe I have been reduced to a prostitute now, but when I mention Brother Xun, I think of those men who are dirty. His eyes, especially Brother Xun's, are the dirtiest."

"He gave money to let our mother and daughter go back, but his eyes lingered on you, mother, and he couldn't let go until his mother was ashamed and annoyed. I just worked hard on him, and I suddenly felt that Brother Xun was a hypocrite , a womanizer, all he did behind was his disguise, and he lost a good impression."

"He was there to have fun. It's normal to look at people with lecherous eyes. He spent money but let people go. Hesitation and reluctance can't be blamed. It is our great fortune to finally overcome the lust and release our mother and daughter safely. , after all, he is the only one who can do what he says."

"So I have no objection to marrying Brother Xun. I have said it all. I am very grateful to Brother Xun and I am willing to serve him with my body, but it is absolutely impossible for me to like him. Whenever I see him and think of him, I will think of how he treated his mother that day. Your nasty and nasty behavior."

This was He Tan's answer to Dong Shi at the beginning. The little girl also knew that she was too aggressive, and her face was flushed.

"It's good to marry him, it's good to marry him... if you marry him, you'll know what's going on with him." Dong could only comfort her in this way.

Compared with the extreme He Tan, Dong Shi can fully understand Zhuang Xun's performance. She is an adult and knows how difficult it was for Zhuang Xun to restrain himself at that time. The hungry tiger let go of the fat in front of her eyes. It's not good that the girl is too young.

When talking about gratitude later, I couldn't help asking him why he didn't keep her even though he disliked He Tan for being young.

This is a relatively bold statement, and when I think about it afterwards, I feel that I have lost my mind. This sentence is too much like a flirtatious seduction. At this time, He Heng is still recovering from illness.

It was also Zhuang Xun's answer that made her fully realize how a bottom-line person Zhuang Xun is, and thus became Zhuang Tui.

"I had this kind of thought at the time, and I'm sorry to say that my sister-in-law is graceful, and Xun really likes it, but my sister Tan is here, how could I tease my mother in front of the child, how much harm will it do to the child? !” Zhuang Xun smiled wryly.

"Afraid of hurting children?" Mrs. Dong couldn't believe her ears when she heard these words.

"That's right, even if Tan Meier is sent away, she knows that her mother's sexual intercourse with other men is also a kind of harm to her, especially knowing that she is still a virgin, the first time she comes into contact with these dirty things, she will not offend her sister-in-law." Yes, of course Xun also struggled for a while at the time, really hesitated, and even regretted it afterwards, he is not a real gentleman, but the next day, Xun made the same choice, so he has a clear conscience." Zhuang Xun revealed his shortcomings, Honest words are convincing.

Perhaps with a single thought, the world line will change to another world, where Zhuang Xun has more kind thoughts.

Zhuang Xun never hides the fact that he is an ordinary person, because he is an ordinary person, greedy and lustful, the only thing that distinguishes him from ordinary people is that he has self-knowledge.

After listening to Zhuang Xun's words, Mrs. Dong has been a firm supporter of Zhuang Xuntui since then, and believes that her daughter is his daughter-in-law.

But he seemed to sense He Tan's avoidance of him, or he really felt that He Tan was young, so Zhuang Xun refused He Heng's reward after recovering from illness, that is, betrothed his daughter to Zhuang Xun.

"Tan Meier is young, she can't bear to fold flowers, and she doesn't want to repay her kindness, so don't say too much." The reason at the beginning was this.

He Tan who was rejected was even more alienated from Zhuang Xun. Although he usually greeted him, it was only on the surface. As a mother, she understood this very well.

But Zhuang Xun really treated He Tan as a younger sister, and didn't care about He Tan's attitude. When he was at Zhuang Xun's house, he often bought some food for her.

He Tan also softened, and took the initiative to call Zhuang Xun: "Brother Xun, it's a good start. Seeing that the two of them have interacted with each other."

Seeing that the time was right, He Heng proposed to let He Tan be Zhuang Xun's maid, Zhuang Xun immediately refused, saying that he only regarded He Tan as his younger sister.

Later, he talked with He Tan, expressing that he likes more mature and beautiful women, and doesn't like her who is small and exquisite, so she doesn't need her to avenge his father.

He Tan also immediately said that what he likes is a man who is indomitable like his father.

Afterwards, the relationship between the two parties froze, because Zhuang Xun's words that he liked mature women reminded He Tan of Dong Shi, and he had a strong resentment, and the two rejections also angered the girl.

He Heng also found a new job and a new residence, and the two never saw each other again. Zhuang Xun would occasionally buy some clothes for He Tan, but He Tan never wore them. On the contrary, the relationship between the two looks promising to outsiders, at least Huang Xi and Luo Yuecheng think so.

In fact, as a mother, Dong knew that her daughter hated Zhuang Xun. Gratitude and dislike did not conflict. She could do many things for Zhuang Xun with gratitude, but it couldn't change her dislike of Zhuang Xun's undisguised lust at the time.

After that, it was tossing and turning into a country. After waiting for her husband to come back, she didn't wait for Zhuang Xun's arrival. Instead, she waited for Zhuang Xun's newly married wife, and her dream of being Zhuang Xun's mother was shattered.

Because he was afraid that Si Qinmi would be depressed in the new environment, He Heng asked He Tan to go to Si Qinmi to learn from female celebrities.

At this time, Dong's hope was rekindled, especially when she heard that Zhuang Xun was about to have a third-rank official title, it strengthened her mind.

Even marrying Zhuang Xun as a concubine is more nourishing than being a regular wife in an ordinary family, but this idea has never been expressed to He Heng.

She didn't take the initiative to mention it until she heard that the Chengyu coalition army defeated the Youguo army, which meant that Zhuang Xun's official title had been stabilized.

After all, being a concubine to an official of the third rank is not a shameful thing, and He Heng can be persuaded.

I didn't expect He Heng to agree so readily, and the reason given is also the most difficult point to solve at present. Zhuang Xun has no intention of He Tan, and He Tan hates Zhuang Xun.

For a while, Mrs. Dong was speechless, unresolved topics.

"Speaking of which, how could Mr. Zhuang marry a woman like Mrs. Wei?" Didn't I say it once, Dong still can't understand, there is no doubt that Zhuang Xun is lustful. What's wrong, calmly said in front of He Tan that he likes mature and beautiful women, now marrying a woman with a bad face is too inconsistent with his usual performance.

"I don't know either. They were already married when we went there. They are very affectionate. Even if Mr. Zhuang stays in Yindu, he must send Mrs. Wei out first." He Heng didn't go into detail why Zhuang Xun got married. Siqin Mi, but he can feel the harmony and beauty of the two of them.

"Tan'er also has a lot of praise for this Mrs. Wei, four virtues? If that's the case, it's because God didn't want her to be perfect and ruin her appearance." Dong said full of regret.

When she heard that Si Qin Mi became Zhuang Xun's wife, she didn't believe it at first, and then she was worried about her daughter He Tan. Now that she found a new way to save the country, she expressed her regret for Si Qin Mi's current situation.

"Maybe, she doesn't hide her secrets, she taught Tan'er a lot of real things, and Tan'er is very grateful to her." He Heng didn't make a good comment, and the topic turned back to his daughter.

"Well, today I took Tan'er to the cloth shop to learn about fabrics, and he treated her like a younger sister like Mr. Zhuang." He Heng said with emotion, some of the couple's behaviors were exactly the same, and they really looked like husband and wife.

They looked like a pair of sisters on the street. At any rate, although Si Qin Mi's face was ruined, she could vaguely tell her age, otherwise she would be considered a mother and daughter.

His current job is to guard Si Qinmi when he goes out. Mrs. Jiang still takes care of Si Qinmi very much. It doesn't cost much, and she understands the ways of the world. Zhuang Xun asked her to take care of his wife, and gained a fortune from Zhuang Xun.

"Tan'er is indeed a little smaller, but Mrs. Wei is indeed older than Tan'er." He Heng looked at his wife, and then thought about his daughter. Except for the similar face, there is almost nothing the same.

"How old is Mrs. Wei, she should be slightly older than Mr. Zhuang." Speaking of age, Mrs. Dong chuckled.

"It should be so." He Heng shook his head, not understanding why his wife would say this.

"Tan'er is still young now, she can wait, it's not bad to grow up slowly, then maybe Mr. Zhuang will change." Mrs. Dong thought about it, probably feeling like if she can't beat you, she will kill you.

"I see Xuan." He Heng thought about his daughter's development, and compared with women of the same age, she was more than a star and a half behind.

"Miss, it's impossible to keep Tan'er waiting. After that, I'll be an old lady." He Heng said worriedly. He hoped that his daughter would marry Zhuang Xun. In addition to repaying his kindness, he also felt that Zhuang Xun was a good destination, because of his character and ability. All of them can protect my daughter for a lifetime.

"So tomorrow, I'm going to check on her. I went out today to prepare some letters, and tomorrow I'll come to thank her for teaching Tan'er. By the way, let's see what good way Mrs. Wei, who was praised by Tan'er, can solve this problem. Confused." Dong thought that she was not the kind of stubborn parent, although she was Zhuang Tui, but she really felt that her daughter could live a happy life as Zhuang Xun's concubine.

"That's good, but women don't easily agree to such things as concubines." He Heng also took concubines, but ran away when he was in trouble, and only his wife stayed with him. At that time, taking concubines was extremely difficult, and finally Let go because he has no son.

"If she really has the four virtues praised by Mr. Zhuang, she should not refuse to take a concubine for her husband. The concubine's Tan'er is extremely pitiful, delicate and soft, well-behaved and sensible, no matter what, she is suitable to be a beautiful concubine." Although it didn't suit Zhuang Xun's taste, it did fit the public's taste, and I proposed it on my own initiative. The womanly Mrs. Wei probably wouldn't refuse.

"That's fine, let's find out. If you really can't do it, don't force it. She has her own choice, as long as she is happy." After all, He Heng still loves his daughter.

"I am happy for a while, but I don't know the pain later. I don't want her to be rich and rich, but I want her not to suffer from poverty." Dong has a deep understanding.

"My lady, I..." He Heng showed shame on his face, and his tone became weak.

"It's not about you, don't substitute. It's about my concubine seeing my former close friend. Speaking of which, I went out to buy a gift letter today, and I heard that Mr. Zhuang slept in the boudoir of the second lady of Li's family at night." Interrupting He Heng's apology, Mrs. Dong Change the subject.

"It's about Mrs. Zhenguo and Mrs. Jiang again?" Mrs. Dong tended not to believe it. After all, He Heng told her about the farce at the Longevity Banquet.

"I'm afraid it is groundless, but there is no wind without waves, but I don't know the specific situation." He Heng immediately thought of the story of Zhuang Xun and Mrs. Zhen Guogong when he heard such rumors.

The story is vivid, as if he saw it with his own eyes. In fact, he was with Zhuang Xun at several points in the story.

"I hope. If it's true, it's hard to say whether another big woman is as easy to talk to as Mrs. Wei of the Four Virtues."
