Donate 300,000 yuan to invite the God of War to marry, and I ask for a divorce

God knows how hard it was for Ji Nanzheng to endure.

When he saw Wan Zhou for the first time, he wanted to taste her lips.

But he restrained himself and wanted to wait for Wan Zhou to open her heart to him before kissing her solemnly and wanting her.

But Wan Zhou's concern was like cutting off his taut string. Now that the string was broken, what else could he care about?

Perhaps it was too delicious, perhaps he was too tempted, or perhaps time was too tight, Ji Nanzheng didn't care about the gentleman's code of conduct, and plundered like a whirlwind, ferociously and ruthlessly.

Wan Zhou was bullied so badly that he felt like his brain was deprived of oxygen and he had no power to fight back.

Fortunately, Ji Nanzheng still remembered that he had a mission to accomplish, so he did not continue to tear Wan Zhou apart. When Wan Zhou was about to be unable to bear it anymore, he let go.

"wait me back."

Ji Nanzheng was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave, so he turned around and left in big strides, leaving behind a room filled with lingering ambiguity and Wan Zhou who had not yet recovered.

"Miss? Why did the general leave?" Bai Lu rushed in almost as Ji Nanzheng went out.

Bai Lu was originally worried, fearing that Ji Nanzheng might hurt Wan Zhou's stomach. But when she saw that Ji Nanzheng left in such a short time, and walked away with big strides, she became worried that Wan Zhou might have annoyed Ji Nanzheng.

Alas, it's because she is a loyal maid who protects her master, so she has to worry about him all the time.

Wan Zhou was supported by Bai Lu, and finally came back to his senses. He rolled his eyes at Bai Lu and said, "He's not leaving. Is he staying overnight?"

Egret: "..."

That's what she meant.

"Miss, have you offended the general?" Bai Lu stretched his neck, wanting to find out what was going on.

"He was the one who provoked me." Wan Zhou said angrily.

Ji Nanzheng flirted with me again and said some incomprehensible things to me.

"Go to sleep." Wan Zhou shook her head, as if to get rid of the emotions that were disturbing her mind, and went to bed.

The next day, Wanzhou heard from Sui'er that Wang Sijun was taken back by the Marquis's wife. Five or six days later, in mid-December, Sui'er brought back news again.

"I heard that the Marquis's wife adopted Miss Wan'er as her goddaughter. She personally took Miss Wan'er to the Marquis's mansion today. Is she going to arrange a marriage for Miss Wan'er?"

After listening to Sui'er's words, Wanzhou thought about it for a moment and roughly understood Wang Sijun's thinking.

It's really amazing.

But now she doesn't care about Mu Wan'er and Wang Sijun anymore, just let them fight each other.

She has asked Huayang to buy a house for her. After this cold winter, when Ji Nanzheng comes back, she can pack up and leave.

The snow started to fall in mid-December. At first, it was only two to three inches thick, so travel was not affected. After a few days, it accumulated to more than two feet, hindering travel.

Wan Zhou had everything she needed, and she also informed Aunt Xie to stock up on necessities for a month. She didn't have to worry about her old father, and she could live a warm and cozy life behind closed doors.

With Xue'er and Alai to entertain and cheer me up, it's not too boring.

Because the snow was too thick and it was inconvenient to travel, Aunt Li and Sui'er also stayed in the house and did not go out, so Wan Zhou did not know about the Duke's Mansion. But she was not worried. As the first family, Wan Zhou felt that it was not her turn to think about anything for them.

On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, Sui'er's mother suddenly came. She looked like she had come from a snowy place, with snowflakes all around her waist.

She came to see Sui'er because the Duke's Mansion was short of charcoal, and even Lady Wang's room was short of it. She thought everyone in Yijin Pavilion must be freezing to death.

"Where did you get the charcoal?" Sui'er's mother wrapped herself up like a traveling bag. When she saw a pot full of charcoal in Sui'er's room, she was deeply shocked.

"The young lady gave it to me." Sui'er didn't know the situation in the main courtyard. She thought to herself that there was something wrong with her mother. It was just a little charcoal, so there was no need to make a fuss.

"Do you burn like this every day?"

"Yes, the young lady said that the weather is cold, so let's burn more vigorously and don't be reluctant to use the charcoal."

"Oh my god, this is unacceptable. This will bring punishment from God..."

"Mom, what did you say?" Sui Er interrupted with a frown, asking unhappily. It's just a charcoal fire, what nonsense are you talking about?

"..." Sui'er's mother had a bitter and wrinkled face as she described the situation at the Duke's Mansion.

"So, the servants in the Duke's Mansion don't have charcoal, and even the Madam can only supply a small amount?" Sui'er's eyes widened in disbelief.

She would believe that other people's families were short of charcoal, but how could it be possible that the Duke's Mansion was short of charcoal?

"Oh, please dry my two jackets. Even though there's no charcoal, I'll wear them even if they're wet." Sui'er's mother took off two cotton jackets and dried them by the fire. After a while, blue smoke came out of the jackets.

When Sui'er's mother's clothes were almost dried, she put them on and hurried back to the main courtyard.

Sui'er ran over and told Wanzhou that the Duke's Mansion was short of charcoal.

Wan Zhou then realized that there was a charcoal famine in the Duke's Mansion.

Mansions like the Duke Dingguo's Mansion have a fixed supply of charcoal. Logically speaking, even if there is a shortage of charcoal in the market, they will not be short of it.

But there is an exception to everything. Because the Duke Dingguo's Mansion uses a large amount of charcoal, the charcoal will be delivered in batches. The first batch has been delivered, and the second batch was supposed to be delivered three days ago. Because it was transported in from outside the city, the heavy snow blocked the road and it was bad luck, but the Duke Dingguo's Mansion is a big family, and they specially hired people to clear the road and deliver it.

As a result, before it could be transported into the city, it was robbed outside. All the charcoal for the Duke's Mansion for the next month was robbed, and the weather was too bad, so the government officials were unable to recover it.

As for the market, charcoal had been in short supply a few days ago because the charcoal outside the city could not be transported in. Now, the huge Duke's Mansion only has enough left for a few days.

Wan Zhou listened without any expression or excitement.

To be honest, the lack of charcoal at the Duke's Mansion had nothing to do with her, and she had no relationship with the people there.

Before this, no one had ever asked her if she was short of charcoal, and now she had no reason to ask anyone if they needed any.

Mrs. Wang should understand the principle of not doing to others what you do not want others to do to you.

Wan Zhou felt that even if Mrs. Wang knew that she had charcoal, she would not be able to bring herself to ask her for it.

She guessed correctly, Mrs. Wang really couldn't bring herself to lose face.

But it doesn’t mean that others can’t pull it down.

Langyi Courtyard.

As soon as Sui'er's mother exaggerated and said that there was a roaring charcoal fire burning in the servants' room of Yijin Pavilion, the Fifth Young Master's wife could no longer contain herself.

"Fourth sister-in-law had charcoal for the servants to bake, but she didn't even send some to my mother-in-law. Is this how she acts as a daughter-in-law?" Shi Xuanting seemed very angry.

Because of the current situation, charcoal could not be obtained for the time being, so Mrs. Wang ordered that the daughters-in-law and children gather in her room to warm themselves by the fire during the day, and at night, everyone ate their meals and went back to bed early.

At this time, the big and small ones gathered in a circle.

Sui'er's mother immediately said, "Sui'er said that the Fourth Young Master's wife said that it was cold, so she should burn more coal and asked them not to save coal. I guess the Fourth Young Master's wife doesn't need any."

When Shi Xuanting heard this, she immediately started thinking and said to Madam Wang, "No, there is only so little for all of us in the house. How can she enjoy it all by herself? If this gets out, it will be bad for her reputation. Mother-in-law, please ask someone to bring some over."

"If you say less, maybe she won't have anything extra to say," said the eldest sister-in-law.

"Sister-in-law, how do you know she doesn't have any extra? The whole city is short of charcoal, and she keeps a big fire every day, as if she's short of charcoal?" Shi Xuanting is a little plump, but it's just bloating. She's afraid of the heat in summer and the cold in winter, and she's had enough of these days.

"You never cared about me before, but now that you know I have charcoal, you start to plot against me. Do you have the nerve to do that?" Mrs. Wang frowned and glared at Shi Xuanting, somewhat displeased.

"Mother-in-law, why don't you ask someone to ask Wan Zhou if she has any extra ones, and we will pay for them?" said Xie Ling, the wife of the Third Young Master.

"That's feasible. We won't ask for it for nothing." The eldest sister-in-law agreed, "Our Duke's Mansion is not short of silver. It's just a natural disaster. The charcoal outside the city can't be transported in. It's okay to give a little more silver."

No one wanted to wait for the cold weather, so they shivered and brought their children to Mrs. Wang's room to play.
