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

For a moment, all was silent, save for the crackling of the charcoal in the stove. Xiao Lan felt cold, except for the warm touch on her lips. Su Ze seemed like a warm flame, and Xiao Lan unconsciously pressed herself against him. His lips still had the sweetness of the orange, with a hint of sourness. Xiao Lan thought she shouldn't do this, but she skillfully pried Su Ze's lips apart. This childish kiss was too shallow for Xiao Lan...

Su Ze felt Xiao Lan's initiative, his eyes opened slightly and then closed gently. His hands climbed up Xiao Lan's waist, and he pressed her close to his arms, and responded to her more and more.

The two struggled for a long time until Xiao Lan suddenly pushed him away.

The push was so violent that Su Ze was dissatisfied. When he opened his eyes, he was still obsessed. But after taking a breath, he calmed down and let Xiao Lan escape.

"..." Xiao Lan stood aside, not knowing what to say. After all, it was "disrespectful" first, and she was the one who took the initiative later.

"When are you leaving?" Su Ze stood up and straightened her skirt which was almost touching the charcoal stove.

Xiao Lan watched his movements and replied, "As soon as possible. The New Year is almost here..."

"Okay, got it. Let me know before you leave, and I'll see you off." Su Ze took Xiao Lan's hand and placed it on his lips, kissing it gently, his eyes filled with reluctance. His heartbeat was heavy, making him feel a little uncomfortable. He didn't know if it was because the charcoal stove was burning too vigorously, or because Xiao Lan's ears were too red.

"Sir, Madam Su sent someone to ask you to go back quickly." Xue Wu said from outside the door.

The sound was like a cool winter breeze, which instantly made the two people in the room much more awake.

"I'm going back."

This time, Xiao Lan easily pulled her hand back and said, "Just now it was just... I haven't been around men for a long time, please don't take it too seriously." She didn't know how this explanation worked, but she felt it was a bit far-fetched.

"Well...thank you for your guidance just now."

The night wind was too cold, and when Su Ze opened the door, Xiao Lan shivered. She stared at Su Ze in a daze...

What did the man just say? "Teach me?"

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

Sun Jiye and Xin'er were determined to go to Beijing with Xiao Lan. Thinking that the child had never traveled at such an age, they decided to take him along.

He was originally going there to collect debts, but now it looks like he is moving.

A total of three carriages were prepared. Xiao Lan and Fang Qingqing took Xin'er in one carriage, Sun Jiye, Haitang and Xiaobai took one carriage, and the third carriage was used to carry silver, money and luggage, and was looked after by Liu Hu, Yu Lao and Li Si.

Before leaving, Xiao Lan carefully told Xiao Wu not to let anyone interfere in the business openly. Everything needed to be done in writing. It would be best not to do anything before she returned, even if Lin Rui brought mountains of gold and silver.

Mrs. Xiao Wu had seen the world and would not do anything dangerous for money, so Xiao Lan was relieved.

He wrote another letter to Lin Rui, and deliberately went through the official post station. Although it was more expensive, there were records of every place he went.

Xiao Yu had originally wanted to go with Xiao Lan, but after careful consideration, Xiao Lan only asked for a letter of introduction. Xiao Lan was worried that Xiao Cheng would make things difficult for Xiao Wu when she left, so having Xiao Yu around would definitely give her a say.

The three carriages set off early in the morning. When passing by the government office, Xiao Lan quietly lifted the curtain to take a look, then hurriedly put it down.

"What's wrong?" Fang Qingqing also lifted the curtain to look, but there was nothing at the yamen gate.

"Nothing..." Xiao Lan leaned back. The cushion didn't fit properly no matter how she placed it, so she simply gave up and stopped leaning on it.

"Maybe I'm wrong. After all, he hasn't admitted it." Fang Qingqing shrugged. She was talking about Master Cui.

That day, he asked Master Cui what it felt like to drown. Master Cui had seriously speculated, but Fang Qingqing couldn't understand what was in his eyes.

She thought she was still a little naive. "I really can't tell whether it's true or not. Anyway, he didn't seem like one when he answered."

Xiao Lan nodded. "I thought he was, but after hearing what you said about his reaction, it's really not the case."

"So who did Su Ze vote for?"

"I don't know... maybe he's not here at all. Maybe 'he's dead' was just a dream of mine, and he might be driving my car to pick up girls right now." Xiao Lan raised his eyebrows, as if he was joking, and said it nonchalantly.

But she really didn't care anymore. Even if that person lived a luxurious life in that world, what could she do? She couldn't go back at all. She couldn't kill herself every time. She could only go back and stay for two days.

What if he was truly dead? Who cared for his body in his absence? If no one cared, why was he in the hospital the first time he went back, but he could drive the second time?

"Then why didn't you die after being poisoned twice?" Fang Qingqing reached out and touched the scar on Xiao Lan's jaw.

She had to drive the carriage today, so she didn't put on any makeup. So the two wounds were bright red, showing no sign of fading, and still looked painful. However, Xiao Lan said she felt nothing, as if nothing had happened, just a slight bump.

"Why isn't it scabbing?"

Xin'er reached out and touched it, "It hurts!"

"It doesn't hurt, there's just a mark." Xiao Lan held Xin'er in her arms, her small body like a small heater.

Xin'er opened her clothes and showed Xiao Lan the scar from the previous burn. "I have a mark too."

"Don't get cold!" Fang Qingqing hurriedly closed Xin'er's clothes, her eyes filled with heartache. Even after careful care, the wound still left a large scar.

"It's not cold." Xin'er sat on Xiao Lan and wrapped her hands around Fang Qingqing's. "It's warm."

Fang Qingqing nodded. "Yeah, it's warm."

Xiao Lan buried her face in Xin'er's neck, "Good boy!"

Xin'er felt itchy and tried to hide while laughing.

I don’t know how long the carriage has been traveling, but it should have already left the city gate.

The coachman called out, "Master Su!" and the carriage hurriedly stopped.

Xiao Lan didn't expect Su Ze to follow her. She lifted the curtain and saw Su Ze getting off the carriage, followed closely by Pan Yingqiu.

"Where are you going, Sister Xiao?" Pan Yingqiu stood behind Su Ze and looked at Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan didn't know why the two of them were riding in the same carriage, but she had to get off. She bowed to Su Ze and said, "Master Su!"

Looking at Pan Yingqiu again, "Go to the capital."

"Oh, what a coincidence. My cousin Ze and I are also returning to the capital. My cousin and I are engaged, so he wants to go back to my uncle's house to propose marriage. I told him there's no rush, but he didn't want to. He insisted on leaving his official duties and going back with me." Pan Yingqiu smiled, as if they were meeting for the first time. Her beautiful face was even more charming now.
