It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

"Snapped!"

Nanny Zhao had a very strong hand. With one slap, Yuan Jinse saw stars, half of her cheek became numb instantly, and her ears were buzzing.

"and many more!"

Just as Nanny Zhao was about to slap her for the second time, Yuan Jinse shouted loudly without caring about her image: "It was Yuan Buwei who did it. She was jealous that I married better than her, so..."

"Yuan Jinse, you have to know your limits when you lie. Your sister Yuan Buwei has been taking care of young Marquis Lu ever since she married into the Wanning Marquis' Mansion. She probably doesn't even know what Weiming looks like. How could she spread such rumors for no reason?" Old Madam Jiang was no pushover. She had investigated the two sisters thoroughly before the emperor's decree of marriage came down. She originally thought that the younger sister Yuan Jinse, whom she married into the family, was a person who understood the rules and was sensible, but it turned out that she was dreaming all day long and even led her eldest son astray.

"No, mother-in-law, I didn't lie." In order to avoid punishment from her mother-in-law, Yuan Jinse kept pushing the blame onto Yuan Buwei. "She grew up in Yaowang Valley, while I grew up with my parents, so she has always hated me. Besides, considering the background of our two families, my father definitely wanted me to marry into the Wanning Marquis's Mansion. But I took into account that Young Marquis Lu would either go to the battlefield or live in the barracks for a long time, and I didn't understand military affairs, so..."

"So you chose Weiming?"

Seeing her mother-in-law's sinister smile, Yuan Jinse didn't dare to nod, and could only look at her timidly: "Mother-in-law, I am Weiming's wife. If I did it, it would not be good for me at all. Besides, Yuan Buwei knows medicine. She just took a quick look, asked around, and made up a story, and the rumor was born."

Madam Jiang looked at Yuan Jinse, and after a few seconds, she suddenly smiled. She stood up and pulled Yuan Jinse up from the ground. Seeing that there was blood on the corner of her mouth, she took out a handkerchief and wiped it considerately: "Jinse, don't blame me. The future of our Jiang family depends on Weiming alone."

Yuan Jinse suppressed her discomfort and nodded obediently: "It is precisely because I know that my husband is under a lot of pressure that I also want to do something within my ability."

"Just take good care of him and stay with him. You don't need to worry about other things."

Yuan Jinse bowed: "I understand, mother-in-law."

Go back to the room.

Yuan Jinse sat in front of the dressing table, looking at her swollen face, and slapped her maid Xiaohong in the face with her backhand.

"lady?"

Xiaohong, who was slapped, fell to her knees on the ground, her eyes full of fear.

"Useless thing, didn't you give me a message in advance?" All the servants that Yuan Jinse brought with her before getting married were sent away by her mother-in-law for different reasons, leaving only Xiaohong, a rough maid who was not only dumb in speaking but also had no foresight at all.

"I have thought about it, but I can't even get out of the gate of the yard." Xiaohong, kneeling on the ground, said softly.

There are many people in the Jiang family, and each small family has an independent courtyard.

Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang live in the best area. Before Jiang Weiming took part in the autumn examination, she only had to take care of him. But now she has to get up before dawn every day to take care of the affairs in the courtyard, and then go to pay her respects to her mother-in-law and accompany her in worshiping Buddha and chanting scriptures. It takes at least two hours to finish all the work. She is not even allowed to drink a sip of water, saying that this is disrespectful to Buddha.

It was okay for one or two days, but in the long run, Yuan Jinse really couldn't stand it. When she was at home, she slept until she woke up naturally every day.

Once, I mentioned it to Jiang Weiming openly and secretly.

As a result, he immediately scolded himself for not being a good wife.

Yuan Jinse didn't expect that her husband, whom she had taken care of for so long, would not be on her side.

I couldn't help but talk back to him.

Then, in a rage, he slapped himself.

Yuan Jinse raised her head and touched her cheek. The slap from Jiang Weiming was more painful than the one from Nanny Zhao.

Everyone in the Jiang family has violent tendencies.

"Xiaohong, go to the kitchen and make some chicken soup."

"Yes."

As soon as Xiaohong left, Yuan Jinse took out a package from the secret folder in the drawer of the dressing table and unfolded it to reveal red powder.

This was the secret recipe for having a child that she had obtained from somewhere else after Yuan Buwei rejected her last time.

into the night.

Yuan Jinse, dressed in light clothing, knocked on the door of the study room carrying a bowl of chicken soup with added ingredients.

"Husband, I made chicken soup for you, please try it."

Jiang Weiming, who was writing at his desk, said without even raising his head: "Get out!"

Yuan Jinse's heart skipped a beat when she heard Jiang Weiming's cold voice. She put down the chicken soup and slowly walked up to him: "My husband, those rumors outside really have nothing to do with me. I am your wife. What good will it do for me to spread rumors about your badness?"

Jiang Weiming paused, raised his eyes and looked around Yuan Jinse, then fell on her face: "After all, your mother's home is the best. You have grown fat on your face in just a few days."

Yuan Jinse heard the sarcasm in her husband's mouth, but she didn't dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction on her face: "I went home for my husband's consideration."

"Considering me?" Jiang Weiming smiled. "Tell me what you have considered for me?"

"I know that my husband is under a lot of pressure, and my father-in-law values you very much. The previous autumn imperial examination..."

"Speaking of the main point." Jiang Weiming frowned. Yuan Jinse kept bringing up irrelevant issues.

"I mean, if I could get pregnant soon, wouldn't that be..."

"Snapped."

Jiang Weiming threw the brush in his hand fiercely, with a ferocious look on his face: "Yuan Jinse, did you come back to make me unhappy on purpose? Do you think I am still in the mood to have a baby with you now?"

"My husband, I've recovered my health after returning home these days, and I also..." A trace of shame flashed across Yuan Jinse's face, and then she slowly took off her thin outer shirt.

Jiang Weiming's originally angry look turned into surprise after seeing the large tattoo on Yuan Jinse's chest: "You..."

"I know that my husband doesn't like women who are as hard as wood, so..." Yuan Jinse gently approached Jiang Weiming and felt his breath suddenly become heavier. She was delighted and hugged her husband's neck: "Husband, have some chicken soup, okay?"

Jiang Weiming's Adam's apple rolled, and the next second he said softly, "Okay."

After a while, unspeakable sounds were heard from the study.

After hearing this, a servant in the yard turned around and went out. He came to Jiang Weiyu's yard and reported the news to him.

"In the study..."

Jiang Weiyu, who was hugging women on both sides, sat up straight all of a sudden, lowered his head and sneered: "I said, there is no man in the world who doesn't care about his masculinity. I get it, you go down first, and just keep watching."

"Yes."

Jiang Weiyu thought for a while and called his wife Ye Tang into the room.

"Meet my husband."

Jiang Weiyu was not very happy about the wife his mother chose for him, but she was sensible and never asked about his philandering, and sometimes even helped cover up for him.

"Tang'er, how is your relationship with your sister-in-law?"
