Qin Ke reminded her tactfully: "Aunt Wu, I'm married."

Qin Ke, who received modern education, had a deep-rooted concept of monogamy. He had never thought of finding someone else, and he never expected that someone would so blatantly persuade him to take a concubine.

"Oh, my cousin's daughter doesn't have too high requirements, and it's common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. You have such a big family business now, you can still support several people." Aunt Wu didn't care.

It is rare to hear of ordinary people taking concubines after getting married. At most, they would have an affair secretly, but that was because their families were poor and they simply could not afford to support so many people.

Any person of some prominence in the county town would have three wives and four concubines. Not only that, it was also common for them to go out and visit other women.

Of course, ordinary families would not let their daughters become concubines in wealthy families, but some families would try their best to send their daughters in just to help their family.

This is the home of Aunt Wu's cousin.

She thought that most men in the world were like this, and there were many who abandoned their wives after becoming rich and powerful. What's more, Lu Youqing's background was really not worth mentioning.

Qin Ke pulled the corner of his mouth, and didn't want to say anything more to her, so he said bluntly: "Aunt Wu, you don't have to worry about it. My family is headed by my wife. If your niece is not well off, she can come to Nan Qiao, and Nan Qiao will arrange a job for her."

Aunt Wu's expression froze for a moment. She had never seen anyone say that he was henpecked in public.

"Well, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, Qin Ke walked away, fearing that the other party would hold him back and talk endlessly.

Qin Ke originally thought that this incident was just a minor episode, and after returning home, he forgot about it. However, he obviously underestimated Li Nanqiao's loyalty.

Of course, Li Nanqiao's loyal object is Lu Youqing.

He didn't know how she told his wife about this matter. Lu Youqing was normal during the day, ate all the food he gave her during the meal, and didn't respond when he talked to her.

However, after nightfall, Qin Ke pushed the locked door and was stunned for a long time.

"Miss?"

Qin Ke stood at the door and looked up at the sky. Thinking of the guilty look on Li Nanqiao's face when she looked at him in the afternoon, he gritted his teeth and decided that he would deduct all her monthly salary.

Lu Youqing sat on the edge of the bed and watched the figure standing at the door leave quietly after a long silence. She couldn't help biting her lips. Was she too fussy?

Qin Ke had clearly rejected the other party without hesitation, and he had done nothing wrong, but she was still so petty as to lock him out. Was he angry?

Lu Youqing was in a state of confusion. She felt jealous that someone was trying to force Qin Ke to marry someone, then she felt annoyed and worried that he would be angry. In her heart, she blamed herself for being willful.

Just when she couldn't help but want to get up and open the door to take a look, there was a rustling sound suddenly coming from the window.

When someone closes a door for you, they will definitely leave a window for you.

Fortunately, the weather is not cold yet and the window in the bedroom is still open. I hold the picked flowers in my mouth and lean my hands on the railing.

Pei Xiu, who had come out to get up at night, looked at the sneaky figure in front of the window and was speechless. It was the first time she saw the host climbing up his own window. She looked up at the starry sky, pretended that she saw nothing, and turned back to her room.

This was the scene that Lu Youqing saw when he opened the window. The moonlight was like water, gently pouring on Qin Ke's body, as if covering him with a layer of bright silver gauze. He raised his eyes and looked at Lu Youqing, a bright smile appeared on his face.

The next second, he handed the glowing wild flower in his mouth to her, his eyes clear and bright, firm yet gentle.

That is the sincere love of the young people.

Lu Youqing thought that she would never forget this scene. The night was as dark as ink, so thick that it could not be dissolved, and there was such a person, like a star in the night, standing in front of her window with a heart full of love, just to make her happy.

When Qin Ke saw her taking the flower from his hand and a barely perceptible smile appeared on her face, like a delicate peach blossom blooming in spring, he knew that she was no longer angry with him, so he hurriedly climbed in through the window.

"How can you climb through the window when the door is open?"

Her tone was coquettish, but there was no trace of blame in it.

"If I don't climb through the window, I don't know when I can get into my wife's house." Qin Ke smiled and moved closer to her step by step until there was no gap between them and they were almost stuck together.

A faint blush appeared on Lu Youqing's face. She lowered her head and did not dare to look into his burning eyes. The emotions in those eyes were so hot that they seemed to melt her.

Until I felt the temperature on my face getting higher and higher, I couldn't help but raise my hand and tried to push him.

Qin Ke saw that her ears seemed to be stained with red, and knew that she was shy. He smiled and bent down to kiss the tip of her small ear, causing her whole body to tremble.

He wrapped his arms around her lithe waist, pulled her into his arms, and whispered a promise: "Nothing like that will ever happen to me."

Of course Lu Youqing knew what he was talking about, and slowly relaxed her body and leaned into his arms, "You can do it today, you can do it tomorrow, but who can guarantee the future?"

Her voice was very soft, so soft that Qin Ke could hardly hear it clearly if he hadn't concentrated carefully.

Men have always been sentimental and fickle. She has seen too many unfeeling and fickle men.

Her father once cherished her mother so much, but in the blink of an eye he fell in love with another person.

Qin Ke knew that she was lacking a sense of security. In this era when women had a low status, the only thing they could rely on seemed to be the love of their father or husband, but that was something so illusory.

I don't know when it disappeared.

"Then when you pass the examination and become an official, people will call you Lord Lu. Who knows, one day, when your official position becomes higher and higher, people will watch your face carefully." Qin Ke changed his approach.

Since the sense of security given by others is elusive, it is better to hold everything in your own hands.

Lu Youqing lowered his head in thought, as if he had taken Qin Ke's words to heart.

Qin Ke obviously didn't know that he had planted a sinister seed in Lu Youqing, and her possessiveness began to sprout from her heart.

"And my lady, I don't have much ambition. I just want to live a quiet life with my partner. I wish to win the heart of one person and stay together till we grow old together."

"I wish I could win the heart of one person and stay with him till we grow old together?" Lu Youqing murmured softly, repeating his words.

"Yes, my heart is very small, it can only hold one person." Qin Ke nodded, then smiled and said, "My wife, you are jealous, but I am actually very happy."

……

Many years later, there are still people who want to start with Qin Ke and send people to him.

After Lu Youqing, who was already a second-rank official, learned about this, the next day in the court, someone began to impeach him for not managing the household properly and allowing his son to disturb the people...

From then on, no one dared to send anyone to Qin Ke, and even unmarried women stayed three meters away from him.
