Being favored by the paranoid master, the whole imperial capital kneels down

Chapter 223 We are a couple, this is called husband and wife following

Zhou Mingzhu watched coldly as Xu Jiaoxue went crazy in front of her.

She did not yell at and insult Xu Jiaoxue like she did before, and she did not rush up to fight with her.

Zhou Mingzhu doesn't need to do such a thing.

Because there is no difference between Xu Jiaoxue and her.

Zhou Mingzhu used to be jealous of Xu Jiaoxu because she was young and beautiful.

She thought Xu Jiaoxue would be treated with great care by Su Shizhi.

After Su Shizhi returned to the imperial capital, he took Xu Jiaoxue as a concubine, which in itself was a humiliation to Zhou Mingzhu.

Because Zhou Mingzhu was a noble lady and once the most beautiful woman in the imperial capital.

As a result, during her exile and the years in the northern border, Zhou Mingzhu became even more despicable than the lowest prostitute.

Comparing Zhou Mingzhu and Xu Jiaoxue, Zhou Mingzhu naturally felt dissatisfied and aggrieved.

She compromised in Northern Xinjiang for Su Shizhi and the Su family.

Why doesn't Su Shizhi love her?

Why can't Su Shizhi be treated well?

After Su Shizhi returned to the imperial capital, he wanted to kick Zhou Mingzhu away, but Zhou Mingzhu would never agree.

Therefore, Zhou Mingzhu regarded Xu Jiaoxue as a thorn in her side.

But now looking at Xu Jiaoxue again, Zhou Mingzhu wanted to laugh.

She really couldn't control her laughter.

Xu Jiaoxue saw the smile on Zhou Mingzhu's face, she pointed at Zhou Mingzhu with wide eyes,

"You are just a lunatic."

"I don't believe a word you say."

Xu Jiaoxue stumbled out of the Chu family and hurriedly ran to the next door of her own yard.

Next door is an old lady selling wontons.

Xu Jiaoxue rushed forward and asked:

"Auntie, what happened in our house last night?"

The lady selling wontons avoided my gaze.

"I don't know, don't ask me."

The more she behaved like this, the more it proved that something big had happened in Xu Jiaoxue's yard last night.

Xu Jiaoxue's expression was broken and panicked, she wanted to kneel down to the old lady.

"Auntie, you watched me grow up, you know how hard my life is, for the sake of my dear mother, please tell me."

In fact, Xu Jiaoxue also had a very happy period when she was a child.

When her mother was still alive, she loved Xu Jiaoxue very much, and she grew up being loved by her mother.

Although her father was not happy with the fact that she was just a girl at that time, he did not make Xu Jiaoxue's life too difficult from childhood to adulthood.

Xu Jiaoxue's mother has a good temper and has a good relationship with her neighbors.

I especially got along very well with the lady at the wonton stall.

But when Xu Jiaoxue was a few years old, fate revealed its true face to her.

Xu Jiaoxue's mother died of illness.

Her father despised her because she was a girl, and said that she was the one who brought bad luck to her mother, leaving him without a son to hold in his arms.

After Xu Jiaoxue's mother passed away, she grew up under the beatings and scoldings of her father until she was twelve years old.

Finally, her father lifted her by the back of her collar and sent her to a brothel.

All of Xu Jiaoxue's neighbors knew about this.

Even these men from the neighborhood, without turning their backs on their wives, secretly took care of Xu Jiaoxue's business.

Otherwise, when Su Shizhi proposed to live in Xu Jiaoxue's house, why did Xu Jiaoxue disagree?

It's because she was afraid that her past would be exposed.

Fortunately, all the neighbors on this street have been "taken care of" by Liu Jie.

No one would run up to Su Shizhi and say nonsense.

This is not a very glorious thing.

Prostitution is illegal, and those who visit brothels are just perverts who don't have the money to go to brothels.

It would be even more embarrassing to tell it to others.

Besides, the neighbors are all afraid that their wives will make a fuss if they tell others about it.

Looking at Xu Jiaoxue's broken face, the wonton seller couldn't bear it and stammered,

"Yesterday, yesterday... a lot of people came to your yard."

"They're all men, you know. We don't dare to intervene, but they're very noisy..."

Xu Jiaoxue's courtyard is located in the downtown area of the imperial capital.

But it is not a wealthy family.

If there is any movement in the yard, everyone around will know it.

In fact, it is hard not to know, because all the men who came to Xu Jiaoxue's house last night were riding in carriages.

Those carriages are quite gorgeous.

The appearance of such a gorgeous carriage in their alley was already very eye-catching.

In addition, last night, many of the men who came to Xu Jiaoxue's house were making a lot of noise and laughing, and it was very lively.

Out of curiosity, some people lay on the low wall of Xu Jiaoxue's house to take a look.

The men entered Xu Jiaoxue's room one by one, and when they came out, they all had a satisfied expression on their faces.

As for what happened inside, there is no need to go into details.

We are all adults and we understand what we should understand.

The wonton-selling lady looked at Xu Jiaoxue, hesitant to speak.

"Your life is gradually getting better. Mr. Su is also favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Logically speaking, you don't have to go back to your old job..."

For the sake of Xu Jiaoxue's mother, the aunt still wanted to persuade Xu Jiaoxue.

After all, Su Shizhi is not a simple person.

Since Xu Jiaoxue wants to be with Su Shizhi, she should stop being a secret prostitute in a brothel.

Otherwise it would be self-degradation and lowliness.

Xu Jiaoxue screamed with a pale face.

Seeing the puzzled look on the face of the wonton-selling lady, Xu Jiaoxue lowered her head and covered her face with her hands.

They all recalled the rumors in the imperial capital.

They said that Su Shizhi put a fixed price on his wife.

They also said that when he was in Northern Xinjiang, Su Shizhi sent his wife to the bed of a Northern Xinjiang official.

There was sympathy in the old lady's eyes.

Xu Jiaoxue stumbled back to her own yard.

In the evening, Su Shizhi came over and handed Xu Jiaoxue a cup of tea.

Xu Jiaoxue raised her head with a pale face. She stood up with the cup of tea that Su Shizhi had given her and poured another cup of tea for Su Shizhi.

"Sir, this tea is also delicious. I bought it specially for you when I went out today."

Su Shizhi didn't want to drink the tea that Xu Jiaoxue poured, but Xu Jiaoxue acted coquettishly with him.

"Sir, you pour tea for me, and I pour tea for you. We are husband and wife, and this is called husband and wife following each other."

Disgust and disdain flashed in Su Shizhi's eyes.

But in order to make Xu Jiaoxue drink the tea in her hand obediently, Su Shizhi still drank the tea Xu Jiaoxue poured for him.

Xu Jiaoxue looked at Su Shizhi with satisfaction and drank the tea clean.

"Since you have already drunk my tea, could you please answer a few questions?"

Su Shizhi was not willing to be hypocritical with Xu Jiaoxue. He stood up and said coldly,

"It's late. Let's talk tomorrow. You should have a good rest."
