Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

"What? Madam, what are you talking about? Do you forget your old love just because you have a new one?"

Zheng Dingyu pulled a chair over and sat down, his tone quite sad, "When I was ranked lower, I was expecting my wife to come and celebrate for me. But my wife, she sent a box of gold and silver and then disappeared~"

"You are a different person now."

Shu Jiao said earnestly: "You have studied hard for many years and finally passed the imperial examination. It won't be difficult to make a name for yourself in the Hanlin Academy if you work hard to gain experience..."

"After all, Madam is tired of me."

Zheng Dingyu's eyes turned slightly, "I climbed up so that if something happened to the Marquis in the future, the lady would be willing to follow me. Not for the lady to send me away with a box of vulgar money."

"Madam, you get tired of the old and love the new..."

"that……"

Shu Jiao coughed lightly, "Actually, He Chang came before you."

what? !

Zheng Dingyu was stunned for a moment.

He Chang actually met the lady before him? What does that mean? The lady would rather eat an old man than have him?

"I'm not saying you're bad."

Shu Jiao looked at his droopy eyebrows and dejected look, and couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, "It's just that your current status is really not suitable. The higher you climb, the more people will stare at you."

"It's not a glorious thing to be with me. If someone finds out, it will be difficult to handle the situation."

Zheng Dingyu: ...

That makes sense, but I can’t bear to part with my wife.

He Chang: ???

Pass the imperial examination? Imperial Academy?

His love rival... um... his identity as a colleague seems a little bit wrong!

"Then if I can solve this problem, Madam, will you still want me?"

Zheng Dingyu asked in a low voice.

Shu Jiao raised her hand and pointed at He Chang, "No ideas?"

"A little bit, but not much."

After all, he knew exactly how he and Shu Jiao met. He had long guessed that Shu Jiao had more than one or two mistresses.

It would be a bit too hypocritical to make a fuss about it at this time.

"Then it depends on your performance."

Shu Jiao's body softened, and she half-lay down again. She casually threw a fruit on the table to Zheng Dingyu, "Go back if you have nothing to do."

"It's okay, but I don't want to go back. I haven't seen Madam for a long time. Madam is sending me away after just a few words? That's too cruel~"

Zheng Dingyu sat next to Shu Jiao with the fruit in his hand, his eyes full of affection, almost saying -

He is here to rob people today!

He Chang: ...

Who is he competing for favor with every day?

He is either a marquis or an official. Madam thinks too highly of him!

"Don't make trouble."

Shu Jiao looked at the face that was close to her and pinched it twice, "Shi Qi, I'll stay at your place for two days."

He Chang didn't do anything wrong and she still likes him for now. Although Zheng Dingyu is also very good, she can't afford to embarrass He Chang for Zheng Dingyu.

If she left, He Chang wouldn't know what her family would think.

With so many concubines, it's hard to keep all the water! What's more, each of these concubines she kept was harder to fool than the other.

Thinking of this, Shu Jiao looked at Chun Zhi silently——

This girl's taste in picking people is really amazing. She should be asked to buy lottery tickets in Modern Times, where the winning rate is at least 80%.

Chunzhi looked at her nose with her eyes, and her heart with her nose, pretending that she didn't exist.

Madam, what are you looking at her for?

Do you need her to come on stage and send people off, or do you need her to speak up to ease the atmosphere? You have a stupid brain, think quickly!

"Madam, do you keep your word?"

"Yes, of course."

Being stared at by Zheng Dingyu, Shu Jiao really couldn't bear it anymore. She let him kiss her before letting Chunzhi send him away.

As soon as Zheng Dingyu arrived at the door, he heard He Chang singing.

Zheng Dingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked back inside, snorted lightly, and then left.

Chunzhi watched him walk away and thought: Zheng Dingyu must be holding a grudge.

Really petty~

I have to remind the master to appease him, otherwise if he gets into a fight with He Chang and things get out of hand, it will be easy to be exposed.

Just as she was thinking about it, Chunzhi looked up and ran into another acquaintance.

The man was standing at the entrance of the alley in a moon-white robe, nodding at her from afar. He had a slender figure, fair cheeks, and his drooping eyes were slightly raised. His long black hair danced lightly in the wind. There was a sense of coldness and fragmentation just standing there.

Chunzhi: ...

My Lord, something terrible is happening. Your outer courtyard is not just about to catch fire, it is burning directly!

Fortunately, with Chunzhi's silent prayer, the acquaintance did not come in, but turned around and walked away as if he didn't know them.

Chunzhi heaved a sigh of relief and quickly slipped into the room, "Madam, Zhu Shi was outside just now and saw me sending Zheng Dingyu out."

Shu Jiao raised her eyebrows, "What a coincidence? Following us?"

"Probably not. I remember he was out of town discussing business, and I don't know when he will be back."

"What about people?"

"Gone again."

"He is a little more sensible than Zheng Dingyu."

This blessing was also dug out by Chunzhi. His biological mother died early, and he had a stepmother and a stepfather who was a merchant. He was suppressed by his stepfather and stepmother with filial piety, and his life at home was really difficult.

fortunately!

He went to Shu Jiao and broke away from his family.

Originally, Shu Jiao just wanted to have an attractive mistress, but she didn't know that Zhu Shi was really talented. He helped Shu Jiao run many shops, and now the business has expanded outside.

Good.

Both capable and competent.

Even if people are a little smarter, it’s still not easy to deal with them!

"Today is really a ghost."

Fortunately, he didn't run into her marquis's wife, otherwise... the follow-up work of killing and silencing her would be quite troublesome.

Shu Jiao raised her hand to rub her forehead, and Chun Zhi immediately leaned over to take over the small task, "It was my fault that I was not careful enough and didn't notice their whereabouts."

"If they want to follow, you can't stop them."

Shu Jiao said seriously, "But only this time. Keep your skin tighter from now on."

"Yes."

Chunzhi agreed, knowing that she should get in close contact with the few people who knew the truth.

Shu Jiao stayed here for another day, and returned home slowly the next day, only to find that Xu Xiuxin had returned last night.

Seeing that she was not at home, Xu Xiuxin asked a few more questions.

Shu Jiao didn't respond, but asked him why he returned home last night?

When asked this question, Xu Xiuxin thought about the purpose of his return home and couldn't help feeling guilty. Feeling guilty, he didn't even think of asking about Shu Jiao's absence from home.

Anyway, he also knew that Shu Jiao often went to other villas to hang out in order to let her daughter-in-law take charge of the family faster, so it was normal that she was not at home.

"I'm out of money."

Xu Xiuxin believed.

Shu Jiao: ???

"Husband, if I remember correctly, it's been less than five days."

Are you spending so much money now?

"I lent it to Lord Dingguang. He owed me a small debt and promised to pay me back next month. It's just..."

As he spoke, Xu Xiuxin almost had a guilty conscience written all over his face. "Madam, can you give me next month's pay in advance?"

He bought some jewelry for one of his mistresses yesterday, and when his other mistress found out, she insisted on having it too.

Jewelry is expensive.

He couldn't buy it with the little money he had. When his parents were alive, they set a rule that forbade him to owe money outside by using the name of the Marquis's mansion.

He also thought about not giving it, but...

The concubine was crying so hard that her eyes were filled with tears. He really couldn't refuse her!
