My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Fu Zhiyi groaned.

He supported himself on the bed with one hand and held Lu Zhenzhen tightly with the other, with his lower body hanging in the air, and he barely managed to keep his balance.

When he calmed down, he looked down and saw Lu Zhenzhen sleeping soundly.

Fu Zhiyi was almost amused by this. He patted Lu Zhenzhen lightly and watched her murmur something and frown.

He felt a little soft-hearted again and smoothed Lu Zhenzhen's hair to comfort her.

Lu Zhenzhen fell asleep peacefully again.

Fu Zhiyi then took a deep breath, held the person in his arms, moved inside, made a space for himself, and lay down.

He still remembered the agreement between them. After putting the person inside, he lay down properly, leaving a space about half an arm's width between them.

Even though we are so far away, in this quiet night, on the same bed, covered by the curtains, it becomes a small, enclosed space.

The faint fragrance from Lu Zhenzhen's body uncontrollably drifted into Fu Zhiyi's nose.

Fu Zhiyi could even still feel Lu Zhenzhen's slender waist that could almost be grasped with one hand, and the warmth with a faint fragrance when he hugged her just now.

For a moment, I couldn't help but breathe rapidly.

In the dark night, Fu Zhiyi took a deep breath patiently, not daring to look to the side, just staring at the ceiling of the bed in a daze.

Silently recite the Heart Purification Mantra in your heart.

After her breathing finally stabilized, Lu Zhenzhen spread her hands and feet in her sleep, and then pressed her hands and feet on Fu Zhiyi's body again.

Fu Zhiyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He closed his eyes resignedly, turned over with ease, and hugged Lu Zhenzhen in his arms, holding her hand in his to prevent it from moving around in the middle of the night and hitting him in the face.

He also placed his legs on Lu Zhenzhen's legs to avoid being kicked awake by her in the middle of the night.

Lu Zhenzhen had long been accustomed to it in her sleep. She did not struggle at all. Instead, she obediently leaned into Fu Zhiyi's arms and slept more soundly.

Fu Zhiyi silently chanted the Heart Purification Mantra and slowly closed his eyes...

When Lu Zhenzhen woke up in the morning, Fu Zhiyi had already left.

While washing up, Haitang came over with a grunt to report that Fu Zhiyi saw the painting she drew last night and took it away when he went out early this morning.

Lu Zhenzhen didn't take it seriously, nor did she think much about it.

She had painted portraits of many people in her previous life, and thought her painting skills had not deteriorated, but she actually caught Fu Zhiyi's eye.

She was pretending to be cool in front of her boss again! She was so cool!

Lu Zhenzhen was open-minded and went to Ruixuan Hall to pay her respects early.

Lan didn't come because she was sick.

Everyone knew why Lan didn't come. The third master had slapped Lan in the face yesterday. How could she have the nerve to show up today, after all, there were younger generations present.

We are all women, and we have all been through this step. Even if we can't say we empathize with each other, we can still feel a sense of empathy.

Even the old lady Bai's face didn't look good.

Everyone greeted each other hastily and left in a hurry.

Bai wanted to keep Lu Zhenzhen to say something, but Lu Zhenzhen slipped away the fastest, said goodbye first, and went straight to Lan's yard.

Jin and Qin watched from behind and couldn't help but sigh: "Third brother's wife, this daughter-in-law, seems to be of a lower social status, but she is sincere and honest!"

After everyone left, Bai couldn't help but complain to the maids and servants around her.

"Although the Third Master is thinking about his descendants, he is still too disrespectful! He's not satisfied with all the concubines and maids in the mansion, yet he wants to hire a concubine from outside! He even disrespected the Third Madam so much yesterday. He was simply foolish!"

Qi Ma, the maidservant of the Bai family back then and now a maidservant, smiled and advised, "Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings! As the old saying goes, if you're not deaf or dumb, you can't be a father-in-law. With the Third Madam keeping things under control in the Third Master's room, nothing serious will happen! Old Madam, you're old now, just enjoy your life."

Mrs. Bai sighed, "That's true, but the Third Master is already old, and he's just married into the family. He wants to take in a concubine who's about the same age as his daughter-in-law. It really hurts the Third Madam's dignity."

"If the old lady really loves the Third Madam, why not give her some good things as a way of making up for it? Let everyone know that the Third Madam is the Third Master's legitimate wife, and she is not comparable to those people outside?" Aunt Qi suggested.

Mrs. Bai thought about it and nodded, "That's the only way! Speaking of that evil Third Master, the old Marquis forbade him from taking a concubine, and the mansion wouldn't give him money, yet he had the audacity to ask the Third Madam for it! It's truly disgraceful!"

On the one hand, he asked Zhenzhu to bring a silver note of one thousand taels, and also packed a pair of white jade rings, and then sent them to the third wife, Lan, to make up for Lan's loss.

After thinking about it, he gave two things to the wives of the first and second wives respectively to show that he was treating them equally.

No matter how generous Mrs. Bai was, she felt tired instead of sad after giving away so many things at once.

If that unpromising third brother does this twice more, even if she has a lot of private money, she won't be able to afford such subsidies!

The subsidy from the Bai family came from the Lan family's courtyard, which arrived at the same time as Lu Zhenzhen.

Lu Zhenzhen had just greeted Lan, and they hadn't exchanged a few words before she had the chance to ask about Lan's health.

The stuff was delivered.

Lan looked fine as she calmly took the things and expressed her gratitude to the old lady Bai. She also said that she would go to thank the old lady in person after she felt better in two days, and then she sent the maid Shanhu away.

Shanhu seemed not to notice that Lan's complexion was normal and she could still get up and lie down normally. She conveyed the old lady's concern for Lan, and then went along with it. She took the purse that Zhang Xian's family had stuffed in her and went back to Ruixuan Hall.

After Shanhu left, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat opposite each other and looked at the reward given by the old lady.

One thousand taels of silver and a pair of white jade rings.

I understood the old lady's intention of comforting me.

Lan looked lazy, not even glancing at anything. She simply pushed the 1,000 taels of silver to Lu Zhenzhen and said, "Here, you young people have little money and a lot of expenses. Consider it my way of helping you."

Lu Zhenzhen didn't feel comfortable accepting it, as this was the money the old lady gave to Lan to buy a concubine.

Lan sneered, "People are about to come in. I'm worried about this money. Take it! Otherwise, it will be a bargain for outsiders."

Since Lan said so, Lu Zhenzhen accepted it without hesitation.

Just consider it as saving it for the Lan family.

Otherwise, looking at the attitude of the Third Master, he would be embarrassed to ask Lan for money when he was short of money, but he would be too embarrassed to ask his daughter-in-law for money.

"Okay, then I'll help my wife collect it first."

Seeing Lu Zhenzhen accept the banknote readily, Lan finally smiled.

Lu Zhenzhen accompanied Lan to have breakfast.

It's probably because of the bad mood. No one would be happy about this!

Lan's appetite was not very good. She could only drink half a bowl of porridge and eat half a silver thread steamed bun. That was all.

Lu Zhenzhen didn't force Lan to eat it.

He chatted with her for a while and deliberately told a few jokes, which made Lan laugh twice. Seeing that her complexion gradually improved, he felt a little relieved.

Lan knew Lu Zhenzhen's sincerity and was quite touched.

Before lunch, she told Lu Zhenzhen to go back: "You've been accompanying an old woman like me for a long time, go back!"

"Don't worry, I'm fine! I know what's going on! If I had been sad and upset about this all these years, I wouldn't have been able to live like this! I have my own intentions, so you can go back now!"
