"You gave me hope, but also gave me despair."
"Since you don't want to share the Second Master with me, why did you bring it up in the first place?"
"Is your promise so cheap?"
"That's why I hate you! That's why I want to take away what you want most!"
Yuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
"You, you made me drink contraceptive soup for more than ten years just because of this?"
Qing'er sneered.
"Is it just because of this? My hope for the rest of my life is nothing but a trivial matter to you?"
That’s not what Yuanshi meant at all.
She just felt that the bond between them as sisters was more important than that between a man.
She loves Xinghao, but she also loves Qing'er.
So she totally couldn't understand why Qing'er gave up her dream of having children for Xinghao.
At this time, Qu Xinghao stepped forward and supported Yuanshi's shaky body.
He looked at Qing'er indifferently, as if he was looking at a stink bug.
"You said that Ah Ruan's promise was cheap? Did you know that she had already mentioned the matter of taking a concubine to me, and it was me who disagreed?"
Qing'er's face changed.
"Impossible... She cares about you so much, how could she possibly bring up the idea of taking a concubine? She is just deceiving me and wants me to be loyal to her for the rest of my life!"
Qu Xinghao sneered coldly from the tip of his nose.
"Is your loyalty so valuable? Doesn't Ruan need a loyal person like you?"
"She never treated you as a slave, but she truly treated you as a sister!"
"To tell you the truth, Ah Ruan not only mentioned the idea of taking a concubine, but also mentioned it at least ten times!"
"Even two years ago, when Dad saw that Ruan had been childless for many years and suggested that I take a concubine, the first person she thought of was you!"
"It's just that I still don't agree. Because apart from A'ruan, I don't want even the fairies in the sky, let alone a slave like you?!"
The only quarrel they had after they got married was about this.
He told Yuanshi that he was not an object, and her actions not only hurt his feelings but also trampled on his dignity.
After that, Yuan never mentioned this matter again.
Every time Qing'er heard Qu Xinghao's words, her face turned paler.
By the end, her face was as pale as paper.
Qu Xinghao was too lazy to waste any more words. He just said those things just to make Qing'er feel ashamed and feel guilty towards Yuanshi until her death.
"Drag him away and beat him to death!"
Qing'er is different from Qu's Yinliu. Qing'er is a slave who has signed a life and death contract, not a free person like Yinliu.
Even if they beat people to death in front of the government, no one would care.
When Qing'er heard this, she finally felt regret and fear in her heart.
"Madam... No, Miss! Save me! I know I was wrong, and I will never do it again. Miss, please give me one last chance!"
Qing'er said this and was about to hug Yuanshi's thigh.
But Qu Xinghao was quick-witted and kicked the man away.
"Drag him out immediately!"
"No! No! Spare me, spare me!"
As Qing'er cried heart-wrenchingly, the boards fell one after another, and the sound soon calmed down.
When the people in the flower hall heard that there was no more noise outside, they all looked relieved.
This slut almost caused their second branch to be childless.
"Daughter-in-law..."
Prime Minister Qu walked up to Yuanshi with a look of guilt on his face.
"It was my fault as a father-in-law before. Please don't take it to heart. I will make it up to you double in the future."
Yuanshi is a considerate person.
She shook her head and said, "You are too kind. I have been childless for ten years. If I had married into another family, I would have been divorced and driven out by the elders of the family. Although you are sad that I have no children, you have never treated me harshly. I will remember your kindness."
Prime Minister Qu breathed a sigh of relief.
Madam Qu held Yuan's hand and said softly, "It is a blessing for our Qu family to marry a daughter-in-law like you. In the future, I will love you like my own daughter."
Yuan nodded with tears in her eyes.
"Oh, right." Qu Shoufu remembered something and asked, "You didn't notice anything unusual for so many years. How did you notice that something was wrong with that slave girl this time?"
Yuanshi smiled.
"It was Qianqian, Qianqian told me."
Everyone was stunned.
They thought that Yuanshi, who was married here, could not hear Qianqian's voice.
It seems that Yuanshi is destined to be a family with them.
"Good boy, then you should thank Qianqian very much."
"It's my wife's fault. Tomorrow morning, I will go to your house to thank you."
"It's just..." Madam Qu said hesitantly, "You've been drinking contraceptive soup for so many years. I wonder if you can... Has Qianqian told you about this?"
Just as Yuan was about to shake her head, the brothel girl suddenly spoke up, "Madam Qu, you don't have to worry about this. Although the girls in our brothel receive customers every day, they all hope to be free and get married one day. Therefore, we already have a prescription that can break the medicinal properties of the contraceptive soup."
Several people's eyes lit up.
Yuan was the first to ask excitedly, "What is the recipe?"
The brothel girl smiled and said, "I'll write it down for you right away. But... I don't know if you will blame me for writing this recipe?"
Chief Minister Qu waved his hand and said, "You don't even know what the medicine that slave girl took is for. Ignorance is not a crime. Just write down the prescription and we will let you go."
"Thank you, Lord Chief!"
The brothel girl got hope and immediately wrote down the prescription and handed it over.
Prime Minister Qu did what he said. He asked the woman not to reveal the matter and then found the person and sent him back to Yixiangyuan.
Long spring night.
There were bursts of moaning coming from the second room.
A giant star passed through the Palace of Spouse and gradually disappeared into the sky.
Wen Qianqian lay in the crib that Qu had made for her, smiling under the moonlight.
Hehe, Wen Qianqian is not the kind of person who only takes benefits without knowing how to give back.
Since her second aunt gave her so much gold, she might as well give her a Ju Men star to help her get pregnant!
She should have a little cousin soon.
The next day came in a blink of an eye.
Wen Qianqian used her spiritual power to drive the Ju Men star last night, and her small body was still tired. She was sleeping soundly at the moment, and Ginkgo hurried in to report.
"girl!"
"Shh!" Qu made a quick gesture to keep quiet, but it was too late.
Wen Qianqian opened her sleepy eyes and hummed a few times in dissatisfaction because of her bad mood after waking up.
Ginkgo knelt down quickly.
"It's my fault. I woke up the fourth young lady."
Qu shook her head gently: "You have always been a calm person. Something must have happened that made you so anxious. It's okay for you to stand up and talk."
Ginkgo then stood up and said, "It was Madam Qian who was with the Empress in the palace. She said that the Empress wanted you to bring the Fourth Miss to the palace for a chat."
Qu was stunned for a moment, then showed a look of delight.
"Aunt wants to see me?"
"Exactly."
"Quick! Prepare the imperial robes for me... and Qianqian, you have to take her with you."
Qu was so happy that she didn't know what to do for a moment, and even forgot to ask Ginkgo to prepare tea for Nanny Qian.
Just because her father and the court officials recommended the eldest prince as the crown prince, the queen broke off relations with them and never wanted to see her again.
Now that the queen is willing to see her, it means that she intends to ease the relationship with her family.
This is great news.
