Favoring the concubine and killing the wife? She divorced the concubine and lived with her concubine

The Sun residence was quickly put up for sale. After all, someone had died there, and although the price wasn't high, no one was interested. Xiao Lan wasn't in a hurry; the money wasn't a problem. She had just been taking Fang Qingqing out to look for a house these past few days.

Jasmine and Mother Xu were at home tidying up. Mother Xu sighed every day, thinking that Xiao Lan was not doing well and would be gossiped about. She was protecting Xiao Lan, afraid that Xiao Lan could not bear the gossip.

Jasmine couldn't bear to hear this. "Mother Xu, our wife is going to inherit the Xiao family business. How will she get things done in the future if she's so hesitant about such a small matter?"

Mother Xu disagreed. "The most important thing for a woman in her life is her reputation. If someone stabs her in the back, it will be difficult for her to do business in the future!"

"We have a wealthy family, are we afraid of what others will say? Those young masters and wealthy businessmen dared to come in front of Master Sun's funeral hall. Are they afraid that Madam Sun will lose her business in the future? Mother Xu, you have to think more positively!"

Jasmine's words made Mother Xu even more worried. "You know how people out there say Madam is hard to listen to. Those gossipy women are always unhappy with their own lives, so they come here to make up stories about others. If Madam's reputation is bad, it will be difficult for Master Jiye to pass the imperial examinations in the future!"

"Then don't take the exam. I have so much money that I can't spend it all. What's the point of taking the exam? It won't make me happy."

Mother Xu stamped her feet in anger, "Oh, you girl, you are such a fool. The Madam is angry with Master Sun, why are you so confused as well?"

Jasmine curled her lips. "Madam has long ceased to be angry with Master. She no longer has Master in her heart. She simply doesn't want to live in the Sun residence, be called Madam Sun, and have nothing to do with the Sun family."

Mother Xu couldn't stand her and turned to clean up in another room. Jasmine didn't care and asked a few servants to move the things.

-----------------

Since his last disagreement with Xiao Lan, Liu Hu had been taking his medicine and eating his meals daily. Within five days, he was able to get out of bed without any problems. He had a strong body and a good foundation, unlike Sun Shaohua, who was left nearly dead after being kicked.

But Xu Yi came every day and watched him take medicine and get acupuncture. Although he was unwilling, he became stronger under Xu Yi's care and let him treat him.

Liu Hu often strolled around the yard, not shying away from anyone. He had been resting for seven or eight days now, and on the last two days he even went to see Old Yu to practice a few moves.

He and Old Yu both used hard skills, and the fight was strenuous. He had just recovered, so he was still somewhat inferior. But Old Yu also knew that if this man recovered, he might not be his opponent. Although Liu Hu's moves were straightforward, they were also subtle, and some of his moves were so unique that they could catch him off guard.

Now everyone in the courtyard knew about Liu Hu, but even so, he and Xiao Lan had never met. So many days had passed, and Xiao Lan had actually been running around the courtyard with him, and he had really been able to hold back from looking for Xiao Lan.

When she said she didn't see Xiao Lan, it just meant that Xiao Lan didn't see Liu Hu secretly looking at her.

Liu Hu kept wondering what he had said that day that had caused Xiao Lan to lose her temper. Was it something he had done wrong? Was it wrong for him to protect her?

It didn't seem wrong, but Xiao Lan didn't seem to want this. He once met Fang Qingqing and asked her bluntly what it was about him that didn't catch Xiao Lan's eye.

Fang Qingqing's words were very hurtful, and here are the original words.

"Have you met Su Ze? Have you met the previous Boss Lin? None of them were in my wife's eyes. Where do you get your confidence from? What's more, your relatives and friends wanted to take away my wife's property, but you let them do it. And you still dare to say that you have feelings for my wife. You are simply shameless!"

Liu Hu admitted that his looks were naturally inferior to his, but those men looked weak and frail, suggesting they were merely frail scholars. A true man should be like him, strong and powerful, with strong martial arts skills. Besides, he had turned over a new leaf and was determined to be a knight, never again to rob or rob people on the road. Isn't it said that a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold? He was about to become Xiao Lan's personal bodyguard, and yet he couldn't even get her to look him in the eye?

I remembered what Xiao Lan had said before: if an ordinary woman had been pestered by him like this, she would have long ago declared her innocence and hanged herself. But Xiao Lan had a somewhat unusual personality, but wasn't she also an ordinary woman? Why didn't she prove her innocence? Wasn't it because she also had feelings for me?

Liu Hu felt that if he could stop Uncle Xiao and the others, Xiao Lan would definitely follow him. After all, Uncle Xiao's family was wealthy, so there was really no need to waste effort on this. The money he had robbed for Liu Yu over the years was enough for him to live comfortably!

He just wanted to pester Xiao Lan, and now this was the only way.

-----------------

After resting for ten days, he finally walked out of the Sun residence. He did so openly, as if wanting everyone to see him. As luck would have it, someone saw him.

Su Ze had been annoyed by Pan Yingqiu for the past few days. He was like cotton in front of him and acted submissive in front of his parents. He had also heard the news that Xiao Lan was going to sell the house, and this news had somehow reached his parents' ears.

The county government's backyard was in an uproar. Su's father would point at him and call him a "jerk" every day. Su's mother would also look at him with envy, asking how he'd gotten entangled with a widow.

No matter how Su Ze explained, they would not listen. Pan Yingqiu would occasionally show her magnanimity and help Su Ze persuade the two elders. This made Su's father even angrier and Su's mother even sadder.

One day, he finally couldn't stand it anymore. He said to Master Cui, "If you still want to follow me in the future, take them out for a day. No matter where you go, just don't bother me anymore!"

Master Cui also saw that Su Ze was really struggling on the edge of collapse, so he used his good flattery skills to take the three distinguished guests from the capital to the suburbs to go boating on the lake.

Su Ze finally put on a casual outfit and changed into his regular clothes, then walked aimlessly on the street. Although he said he had no purpose, there was always a hidden name in his mind that led him here.

He quickly glanced at the plaque of Sun's house and was about to leave quickly, but he didn't expect a figure to come out from inside in a dignified manner. It was Liu Hu.

He had never imagined that Liu Hu would actually emerge from the main gate of the Sun residence in broad daylight. The servant who opened the door for him didn't look surprised at all, as if everything was normal. This meant that everyone was already aware of Liu Hu's presence.

Su Ze's heart sank, and a trace of anger flashed in his black eyes. He didn't want to think about the details, but many bad images flashed through his mind.

He recalled the look in Xiao Lan's eyes that was like hope when she saw Liu Hu on the day Jiye was kidnapped, and the disappointed and sad expression on Xiao Lan's face after she knew Liu Hu's identity.

Everything told him that Xiao Lan treated Liu Hu differently.

Xiao Lan, on the other hand, would lose her temper at the slightest disagreement. Like a firecracker, she couldn't even tell him what she said was wrong. He never said anything harsh to her, and now he wouldn't listen to any kind words, leaving without a second thought.

Suddenly Su Ze thought, was it because of Pan Yingqiu's appearance that made...

"Master Su!"

As soon as Liu Hu went out, he saw Su Ze hanging around the door, and he could see clearly the jealous look in his eyes. Liu Hu looked Su Ze up and down. Is this the amazing appearance in Fang Qingqing's eyes?
