Chapter 43 Jealousy
After all, everyone in the capital knew that the eldest daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion was well-known for her virtue. She had been in charge of the household affairs since she was twelve years old and had been running the mansion on behalf of her grandmother.

She can manage such a large mansion and have everyone praising her, let alone such a small Qingfeng Courtyard?
So this... could it be that she is taking care of him?

If Qingfeng Courtyard wasn't so special, and the master valued it so much, as a loyal steward, the chief steward would have wanted to hand over the stewardship directly.

Yue Xianhua didn't know that just a few perfunctory words from her had caused the other party to imagine so much.

After sending the butler away, the girl raised her hand and touched her black temples:

What's the point of marrying a wife who doesn't care about anything and is of no help to her husband?
If this goes on, it won't be long before the people in the mansion see her true face, and they will only think that she is useless and a burden to Xiao Yan.

"Butler."

Seeing the butler come out in high spirits, his serious and stern face was completely free of the worry of the past few days. Chen Zhu, who had just returned from outside, couldn't help but come up to him and ask:

"What good thing happened to you? You look in a good mood?"

Of course, he couldn't tell what happened, but it didn't stop the butler from praising the new lady:

"The young lady is very kind and considerate of the servants."

Chen Zhu: Huh?

"Well, go back to your own courtyard. Madam has given rewards to the servants in the courtyard today. Even those of you who haven't returned have been sent to your rooms."

"Is there still this matter?"

When he heard about the money, he became happy too: "You are right, the young lady is very good!"

When Xiao Yan came back, he was concerned about another piece of news—

"The head butler said you don't want to be a butler?"

As he raised his hand to take off his coat, he casually asked the beauty under the light.

But the beauty ignored him, as if the book in her hand was more interesting than him.

Xiao Yan made a "tsk" sound, walked over and picked him up, and took the book away: "Reading at this time of night will damage your eyes."

Yue Xianhua said nothing, but just looked at him coldly with a pair of icy eyes, like a beauty carved out of ice.

Ordinary people would be more or less angry or dissatisfied if they were treated so coldly, but the man in front of him didn't care at all, either because he was too thick-skinned or because the money was still warm after he took it back.

Seeing that the young lady ignored her, he didn't get angry, but lowered his head and was about to kiss her.

Yue Xianhua finally responded. She covered his lips with her pretty white hands and frowned slightly, "I don't want to."

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment before realizing that it was the answer to his first question.

"That's it."

He didn't care much and bent down to kiss her. Yue Xianhua had to try her best to hide. Who would have thought that while she protected the upper part, she couldn't stop the lower part.

But in the blink of an eye, she felt her clothes loosen and fall down.

"Xiao Yan!"

Yue Xianhua finally became annoyed and quickly put his hands up to protect his chest.

But the man's kiss had already landed: "What?"

There was even a smile in his dark, star-like eyes: "This is the first time I hear my wife call my name, dear, call me again."

He didn't like her always cold eyes that treated him as a stranger.

When I get angry like I am now, it's much more vivid.

And the sight of her crying with red eyes made his heart beat fast.
-
"Can you find someone else?" The girl was delicate and frail, but even when she was deeply in love, the stubbornness in her beautiful eyes never left.

Xiao Yan looked down at the charming and breathtakingly beautiful person in his arms, chuckled, and then lowered his head to kiss her:

"No."
-
The next day, without a doubt, Yue Xianhua overslept again.

Looking at the bright sky outside the window, she was so depressed that she just stood there motionless.

My body was so lazy that I didn't want to move at all, but my mind was clearer than ever before.

She thought of what she had heard before she got married: the mistress of a wealthy family took in a concubine to share her husband's favor in order to avoid having to serve him, and she also gained a good reputation for being virtuous outside.

At that time, she didn't take it seriously.

She would never share her mother-in-law Hua's things with anyone, let alone her husband who slept in the same bed with her.
But now it seems that if something exists, there must be a reason for it.

If I really take in a concubine, I can distract Xiao Yan's attention and stop him from visiting her every day...that doesn't seem to be a bad thing.
-
What's wrong, miss?
I do not know.

Looking at Yue Yunhua who was in a daze, the two little girls Yunzhi and Qing'er secretly looked at each other and spoke with their eyes.

The girl's flawless white skin is like a red plum blossom blooming on the snow.
So gorgeous that it makes people blush.

Even if you have seen it more than once, you will still feel shy when you see it again.

The young lady's skin is delicate, and a little more force would leave marks.

The old red has not yet faded, and new scars are covered again.

It can be seen that the son-in-law really loves the young lady.
-
In the evening, Yue Xianhua went to pay his respects to Jiang.

The two smart guys were pretending to be nice to each other as usual, praising each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

But before leaving, Yue Huahua suddenly mentioned Master Xiao's concubine: "I have been here for so long, but I have never seen the concubine in my father-in-law's courtyard."

The smile on Jiang's face froze, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Yue Xianhua became sharp for a moment, as if she was examining what she meant by her words.

Because of his previous wife, Master Xiao did not have many concubines, only one aunt.

Because of this, Jiang's mortal enemies loved to mock her as a "jealous woman", saying that she was shameless enough to kill the late wife, but she also controlled her husband and did not allow him to take concubines.

This was a thorn in Jiang's heart, and when Yue Hua suddenly mentioned it, she became alert instantly.

This girl has been acting for so many days, is her true colors finally revealed?
However, Yue Xianhua quickly explained: "Don't laugh at me, Second Lady. I am just a little curious. My husband is well-known and has many female confidants...but why doesn't he have even a concubine in his house?"

this problem……

Jiang's complexion recovered a little, still smiling: "Well, speaking of this, you have to thank the Duke. Because he said that a wife must be married first and give birth to a legitimate son before a concubine can be taken. So although the Second Young Master Xiao... made some mischief, the room was clean."

Jiang originally thought that Yue Xihua would be surprised or shy, but after observing her, she found that she looked thoughtful after hearing this.

And Jiang was not really happy. Before, she had also thought about using "female beauty" to kill Xiao Yan.

Who would have thought that just as she had stuffed a proud girl who wanted to climb into his bed into his room, before she succeeded, her precious son was knocked unconscious by that evil creature and thrown into a brothel.

A silent warning to her not to mess around.

Jiang was almost scared to death that time.

Xiao Yan is a reckless man. If she dares to attack him, he will dare to attack her, Xun Ge'er!
Since Jiang has her son as her weak spot, she naturally won't do such things again.

Thinking of this, her face turned a little pale.
