Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

The reason why Guo Rongan didn't go to find Shu Jiao was very simple.

He is not feeling well.

and!

He felt very ashamed.

He was actually being taken advantage of by his own concubine... But after the last time, he did miss her a little bit, and liked her a little bit...

He was thinking of waiting until he recovered before going to look for Shu Jiao.

Who would have thought that within just two days, rumors would begin to spread in the mansion!

Fearing that Shu Jiao would be unhappy, Guo Rongan stepped into Yixinyuan again.

"You still know how to come?"

Shu Jiao watched him enter the yard from afar and threw the teacup in her hand at him.

It hit Guo Rongan's thigh.

Seeing the beauty sitting on the couch with her hair burning with anger, Guo Rongan's waist softened instantly, and he quickly walked over, "Jiaojiao, don't be angry, I'm here."

"Humph~"

Shu Jiao turned her head away, acting like a spoiled brat.

Guo Rongan cried out "Ouch!" and sat down next to her, coaxing her humbly, "Little ancestor, who has made you unhappy again? Just tell me and I'll punish them."

"Who else but you?"

Shu Jiao poked her fingertips into his chest, "If you didn't come for two days, everyone in this mansion would laugh at me. Am I not doing this for your happiness? But you... said something at the beginning, if I had come to the mansion, you would make sure I wouldn't be wronged at all."

"Now you just watch me get angry at you?"

"Yes, yes, blame me, but this is not me..."

Guo Rongan moved his lips slightly, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Isn't it because you made me uncomfortable that I didn't come? I won't do this again. I will come to accompany you every day from now on, okay?"

"look."

Guo Rongan waved his hand and the servants beside him brought up the boxes.

"This is something I picked out especially for you. This cloisonné enamel headpiece came from the palace. It's perfect for you."

"And this box of pearls, each one is round and plump, you can play with them when you have nothing to do."

Shu Jiao looked up, her expression slightly relaxed, and she said meaningfully: "The pearl is not small, put it on the bedside."

The maid beside her took the box and put it over.

It was opened at night.

Shu Jiao was seen pinching the pearl that was slightly larger than her thumb, smiling wantonly, "It's a good thing, so of course I have to give you half."

Guo Rongan: ...

He had no choice but to grit his teeth and accept the "gift" from Shu Jiao.

Getting up the next day was even more difficult.

Fortunately, Qi Si gave him a few vents at the right time.

"Master, I have found out that the news first came from Aunt Su's courtyard. Xiaoxiang Courtyard, Ningguang Courtyard, Qinglan Courtyard...are all involved."

Qi Si whispered.

The concubines in the backyard probably thought it was a trivial matter to give it a try.

But he didn't know that he had walked into the trap.

If it weren't for those women talking nonsense all day long, would he have been tortured so badly by his little sweetheart last night?

"They don't do their work all day, but just gossip. Send Madam Su to the farm, and all the madams in the other courtyards will be confined to their homes for a month and punished by copying scriptures a hundred times."

Guo Rongan said in a deep voice.

Qi Si responded "yes".

Once these women were confined to their residence, the mansion felt a lot quieter.

No matter how they complain and curse in their own yard.

Shu Jiao was once again favored alone.

The few concubines who were not affected by the storm realized that this situation could not continue.

The prince did not come to her courtyard, she fell out of favor, the share she received began to decrease, and the cloth and food sent to her became worse and worse.

Do you really think they are so in love with that playboy Guo Rongan that they can't control themselves?

Do you really think they are fighting for Guo Rongan's love?

of course not!

What they are fighting for is wealth and glory, the monthly salary and super-standard treatment in the backyard, as well as various gold and silver rewards!

What they are fighting for is whether they can give birth to a son who can provide support for the rest of their lives!

I am not the mountain, I am the mountain.

So soon, the concubines began to compete for favor again.

They were either playing the piano or pipa in the yard, or dancing and painting on the roadside. Some were bringing purses, cakes and soup to the front yard, and some were holding their children and teaching them to call daddy.

There are so many different ways of doing it.

Shu Jiao was overwhelmed by what she saw and almost said, "What a great job! You deserve a reward!"

However, Guo Rong'an was a heartless person.

He turned a blind eye to the aunts' tricks.

No matter how many interceptions there were on the way, he was determined to go to Yixinyuan to find Shu Jiao.

But before long, Guo Rongan found that Shu Jiao seemed to be gradually becoming perfunctory towards him.

"Do you think the aunts in the backyard are too annoying?"

Guo Rongan asked carefully, "How about I send everyone to the farm?"

Shu Jiao leaned sideways on the chair and lazily raised her eyelids, "That's not the case."

"Why is that?"

Guo Rongan said with a hint of resentment, "It's been five or six days, and you won't even give me a smile."

"Boring~"

Shu Jiao snorted, "You keep repeating the same few words to comfort me. I'm tired of hearing them! And your praise is not good at all. It's not like those talented scholars out there who are full of knowledge and praise in a very pleasant way."

Guo Rongan: ...

"Jiaojiao, aren't you making things difficult for me?"

he!

Dandy!

Expecting a playboy to be knowledgeable is no different from expecting money to fall from the sky.

"Humph."

Shu Jiao threw her sleeves and said, "If you don't know how to do it, go ahead and learn. I don't care, you have to write me a new poem in three days. Also, I heard from my former sisters that writers are good at telling stories, you have to tell me one too."

"I don't like those storybooks. You should study history. I quite like those stories."

"I……"

"Will you learn it?"

Shu Jiao glared at him.

Seeing her like this, Guo Rongan had no resistance left and nodded with difficulty, "Learn, learn! Isn't it okay for me to learn? I'll start learning tomorrow."

"That's pretty much it."

Only then did Shu Jiao smile.

……

There was no way such a big commotion in the mansion could be hidden from the marquis's wife who was in charge of the household supplies.

At first, she thought that her good son had married a prostitute on a whim and that he would forget about her soon.

how do you know...

The son seemed to be bewitched and only doted on the other girl, even ignoring the other girls he loved very much in the past.

Could this be... meeting true love?

After watching from the sidelines for two months, Mrs. Hou felt that she couldn't go on like this any longer.

But just when she was about to ask someone to "invite" Shu Jiao to meet her, she suddenly discovered -

Her older son, who was tired of studying and practicing martial arts, actually started reading!!!

Not just reading.

He also asked his father to find him a teacher who was a candidate for the imperial examination in Beijing.

Mrs. Hou:? ? ?

wrong.

This is not my son!

Give me back my son!

Mrs. Hou had no time to care about Shu Jiao at this moment and was in a hurry to see Guo Rongan.

When she entered the front yard, she saw her older son, who had always slept in class and skipped four out of five classes, holding a book and reciting with the teacher, pinching himself when he felt sleepy.

The way he studied so hard almost made the Marquis' wife cry.

"My son... has finally grown up!"

The Marquis's wife looked at him for a long time, then walked away with satisfaction, "Ask someone to send some ginseng soup and cakes to the main courtyard, so that the prince won't go hungry."
