The black-bellied lord, the first wife is mighty!

Tao'er stared at her husband in disbelief: "You, you actually protect that girl Xing'er like this. Could it be that you love her too and want to marry her?!" With a miserable smile, she snorted coldly: "What the hell is that bitch girl doing?" What's so good, everyone protects her, as if she is the only good woman in the world!"

"You, you are really unreasonable!" Furious, Mu Qingfeng raised her hand and slapped her across the face, angrily scolding: "She is your biological younger sister, who has dedicated herself to the Chai family since she was a child! How can you humiliate her like this? No conscience?!"

For this slap, he used at least three points of strength, and seeing Tao'er's cheeks became red and swollen.The five palm prints are very eye-catching.

Unexpectedly, Myolie fell from the sky and rescued their husband and wife.After getting to know Xing'er, Xing'er's deeds made her very admired and admired.As a woman, she admires Xing'er and has an inexplicable awe of Xing'er.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he also realized more and more that his favorite daughter was really far behind Xing'er!Even compared with her younger daughter, Li'er, she is not generous enough, not generous enough and kind.Especially in the past two years, after returning to the capital, the arrogance and complacency she expressed in her letters made him very unhappy and worried.

This is the first time since he got married more than 20 years ago that he slept in a separate room because of discord with his wife.In the past, they didn't sleep together because of force majeure, they had to leave home, or Tao'er went back to her mother's house.

And those people were almost all close to Xing'er, even the Lai'an family who originally managed Xinghua Village were no exception.This family still manages Xinghua Village, but it is not someone Taoer can cry about.

Tao'er's face turns blue and white.

Tao'er's face was pale, and she fell to the ground, crying bitterly.

Five days later, back to Shantun.

As a woman, she actually understands very well that the reason why a man is willing to treat you wholeheartedly is that you have the capital worthy of him.An ordinary fifth-rank official can accept one noble concubine, three good concubines, five lowly concubines, and countless housewives according to the law.

Chai Yao nodded silently, and asked the servant girl to go to Chai Da to discuss it. Chai Da came soon, and Chai Yao showed him Mrs. Mu's letter, and expressed his thoughts and worries.

There is no way, lust is a man's nature, and men who are not lustful are rare.If you want him to be "a couple for life" with you, you also have to have the capital to make him willing, to make him obsessed with you and unable to leave you.Love is actually empty, and it is difficult to last. After the passion, it will always return to plainness.How can a marriage be lastingly warm and peaceful if it is not carefully managed?

Mrs. Mu sighed deeply, she went to her study and wrote a letter to the eldest princess.The next day, I asked my son to use the military channel and sent out the letter and some gifts.

Mu Qingfeng was so angry that she wanted to bite her tongue.

From Chaifu in the capital, only Chaihong's family, uncle's youngest son, came back.The people who took care of the properties of the Chai family brothers and sisters were still loyal and loyal when the Chai family and the Shen family were in trouble, and no one made trouble. I got it back.

When this question was mentioned, Tao'er's confidence became stronger at once: "That's right! Back then she was the empress dowager, and the emperor's uncle was her direct son. If she loved us enough, it would be impossible for the emperor's uncle to win us over. Shen Jie and your military power! If the military power is still in the hands of Shen Jie and you, how can the Dou family have the ability to put the emperor's uncle under house arrest and exile innocent people like us to that bitter cold place? ten years!"

Chai Da pondered for a moment, and said in a heavy tone: "Father and mother's worries are not superfluous. We should be vigilant. People who have no foresight must have near-term worries. This good day has only passed a few days. Not only do I have to write a letter to my second brother-in-law, but also I need to write a letter to brother-in-law Mu. It’s best to send a letter to Kuang’er to remind him too.”

Yun Qianyue didn't say anything, just showed the hostess' demeanor and warmly entertained her.All kinds of exquisite pastries and delicious fruits, several fruit plates are placed, and the tea is also made with the best tea leaves.There was a lot of laughter, and the attitude was warm and enthusiastic, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Mrs. Mu thought so deeply.

But what happened today?Why are the eyes red and a little swollen, and the person is very haggard, as if he has suffered a heavy blow.

Tao'er still had to argue with reason, but Mu Qingfeng didn't bother to pay attention to her, and walked away.Before leaving, he threw down a sentence: "You do what you want! If this continues, I won't be able to keep the promise I made to you back then!"

"Where can I blame you? If you want to blame, you should blame me. It's been ten years since I left, and I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a husband and father. Maybe it's because I had a hard life when I was a child, and I suffered too much grievance and bullying. , That's why it's hard for her to keep her true heart after she's rich." Er dared to say.

To Mrs. Mu, Xing'er is still a god-like figure, a great benefactor and a great savior.Back then, she and her husband were forced to stay in a hermitage in the closed Shuijia Village, isolated from the world, worrying about the safety of their children day and night.Originally, I thought that for the rest of my life, I would be trapped in that place and not be able to meet my children.

Tao'er likes people to call her "Madam of the General", and every time she is called that, she laughs very heartily.Even if the other party is someone she hates, she will not embarrass him, and will greet him with a smile.

Probably aware of Tao'er's attitude towards Xing'er, the Lai'an family treated Tao'er with more respect and less intimacy.When facing Tao'er, the smile was not so bright and warm.Even Chai Hong felt that the Lai'an family's attitude towards Tao'er was a bit strange.

An Jing blamed herself: "It's all my fault that I didn't discipline my daughter well, and let her lose her heart after being rich. Before she went to the capital, she was still an excellent child. She was very friendly to her younger siblings and was an impeccable teacher." Good sister." As she spoke, she shed tears.

"Oh, are you reasonable? It's not Xing'er, you were sold to the old man as a concubine back then; it's not Xing'er, the winter when your family was kicked out of the old house, the people in the fifth room of yours might have been starving." If it wasn't for Xing'er, even if you could survive that cold winter by luck, you would definitely not be able to escape the flood and drought that followed!"

Xing'er is the benefactor of her and her husband; while Shen Jie is the savior of her son Qingfeng and daughter Hefeng, Qingfeng's former master, and the brother of Paozhe who shared life and death.Why can't Tao'er understand such a crucial point?No!In fact, she mentioned Tao'er several times in the open and in the dark, but Tao'er didn't seem to listen to her heart at all.

Tao'er was shocked, and asked eagerly: "What promise?"

There was no one to confide in, so Tao'er bit the bullet and went to Shen's residence to find Shen Rui's wife, Yun Qianyue.When they were in Repulse Bay, the two got along very well, and later went to Baozigang. Although they were not as close as before, their relationship was still good.

Jing Jing asked in confusion, "Why did you tell Kuang'er?"

For this reason, Tao'er was very proud, and felt that her husband's title and official position were well-deserved, unlike Shen Rui's Grand Duke, who inherited the glory of his ancestors and was not so proud.Invisibly, she felt that she was superior to others, and her back was straighter than anyone else.

"You, you are trying to cut corners! Wasn't the empress dowager also imprisoned in the cold palace back then, living a miserable life without food? Compared with her, our life in the Northeast is actually considered a good one! "Seeing her being so obsessed with obsession, Mu Qingfeng was so angry that she really wanted to open her head and see what she was thinking.

"See for yourself." An Jing stuffed the letter into her husband's hand.

Tao'er's biggest asset is actually having a good sister, Xing'er!

Tao'er froze for a moment, then jumped up and scolded angrily: "Well, you Mu Qingfeng, the relationship between husband and wife for more than [-] years, you can hit if you want! How can I not be as good as that bitch? Speaking of it, she is a scourge! If If it wasn't for her, would the Chai family, Shen family and Mu family be targeted by Empress Dou and exiled to that bitter cold place?!"

Yun Qianyue knew that Tao'er was a little narrow-minded, and called her "the general's wife" every time "obediently", so as not to touch Tao'er's bad luck and cause unnecessary verbal disputes or misunderstandings.

However, this daughter-in-law disappointed her deeply in the end!

Over the past ten years, in order to make up for her mistakes, she has been tolerant to her daughter-in-law.She has never relied on her status as a mother-in-law to set up any rules for her daughter-in-law, let alone deliberately suppress her.To be honest, compared to other people's daughters-in-law, even compared to Xing'er, Tao'er is so happy!

The three reached a consensus, and An Jing and Chai Yao dictated, and Chai Da wrote, and discussed together. They wrote a letter to Mu Qingfeng, Shen Jie, and Shen Kuang respectively, and An Jing replied to Mrs. Mu alone.In addition, they sent someone to call Chai An back urgently to discuss countermeasures together.

Chai Da explained patiently: "Tell Kuang'er that it is because he is now the young owner of Yuwan Villa and the actual helm of Yuwan Villa. The second sister and second brother-in-law don't care much about the affairs of Yuwan Villa Yes. Two years ago, in order to help the Holy Majesty deal with Dou’s family, Yuwan Villa was accidentally exposed to the Holy Majesty’s eyes. So, now we don’t have so many retreats, and the tragedy of exile must be avoided no matter what! Come again Once, you won't be so lucky!"

Mrs. Mu stood under the peach tree outside the window, with a mocking smile flashing in her eyes: Taoer, the noble princess of Mingzhu, you have offended all your brothers and sisters, and recruited the empress dowager. Don't like it, do you think you still have much capital to be proud of? !

Chai Yao read it at a glance, and couldn't help but sigh: "This child, why is he so narrow-minded? Where did the simplicity and kindness when he was a child go?"

"A couple for a lifetime!" Before the words finished, people were already invisible.

I have seen unreasonable ones, but I have never seen such unreasonable ones!

Tao'er was so angry that she broke all the furnishings in the bedroom, and wanted to find someone to cry to, but after thinking about it, there was no suitable person!

When she comes today, she must ask for something.

After receiving Mrs. Mu's letter, Jing Jing frowned deeply, and her face was full of sadness.

Mu Qingfeng and Tao'er slept in separate rooms.

"What's the matter? Did Tao'er's mother-in-law say something bad?" Chai Yao poured a cup of tea for his wife, handed it to her, and asked with concern.

Mu Qingfeng pointed at her with an unprecedented tone: "Let's not talk about Xing'er for now, I'll just tell you about the Empress Dowager! During the exile, every time Xing'er asked someone to send a message to the Empress Dowager And give silver and dual-use items, have you written a word to the Empress Dowager? Or, have you even made a pair of insoles for the Empress Dowager?"

Yun Qianyue is a well-educated woman. Although she doesn't have a good impression of Tao'er now, she still greets her very warmly: "Oh, the wife of the general is here, a rare visitor! Welcome, welcome, warmly!"

Chai Yao stopped his wife distressedly, deeply blaming himself.After pondering for a while, he made another suggestion: "How about sending a letter to son-in-law Shen and asking him to persuade son-in-law Mu to retreat bravely? Is that good?"

Over the years, she has done one thing to feel sorry for Myolie, which is the "Miss Cao Incident".She shouldn't be obsessed with ghosts, bewitched by Zheng Xi and others, and want to forcefully give her son a concubine.Because of this matter, she always felt ashamed to see Myolie afterwards, and also felt very ashamed of her daughter-in-law.

"..." Tao'er was speechless, being scolded embarrassingly. 13acv.

Mu Qingfeng continued to complain: "Every time Xing'er wrote a letter to the Empress Dowager, she communicated with everyone and did not hide from you brothers and sisters. Both your younger brothers and Li'er wrote letters, but you did not." You don't want to participate at all, and you even disapprove of Xing'er's concern for the Empress Dowager. Not only that, you also have a lot of resentment towards the Empress Dowager, thinking that if she treats you well enough, you won't will be sent to exile!"

Quietly nodded: "Forget it! With Tao'er's temperament, if things go on like this, she will inevitably cause disaster! Son-in-law Mu has also stayed in the position of General and Minister of the Ministry of War for two years, and he has made a fortune in the capital. Tiandi has accumulated a lot of contacts again. Now, it is time to step down from the position of minister of the Ministry of War, too much limelight is not a good thing, or you will be jealous again."

Tao'er felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, several times she wanted to speak out what was on her mind, she opened her mouth several times, but in the end she was unable to speak out.The restless rambled on for half an hour, but finally went back with nothing.It seems that the back is quite lonely.

Yun Qianyue enthusiastically sent it to the gate, watched the luxury eight-treasure carriage going away, and couldn't help sighing deeply: "Why bother? Xing'er is such a good sister, but she doesn't know how to cherish it. Are you looking for trouble?"

Yun Qianyue is Xing'er's confidant and friend, and she can guess eight points of Tao'er's intention.Immediately, he wrote a letter with a swipe of a pen, and asked people to send it to Huashu New Village to Xing'er.
