The imperial concubine is charming and charming, and only seeks power and wealth

Xie Anning lay on the bed, his eyes slightly closed, his thoughts becoming increasingly confused.

Outside the house, the night was dark.

Steady footsteps sounded in the moonlight.

It alarmed the old woman who was keeping watch.

Wang Shaofu raised his hand to stop the other party from greeting him and pushed the door open and walked in.

There was only a dim oil lamp in the room. He walked around the screen, went to the bed, and looked at the woman with her eyes closed on the bed.

He raised his hands and began to unbutton his clothes.

One, two...

The movement was very slight, and Xie Anning opened his eyes with some uneasiness.

Eyes facing each other.

Wang Shaofu casually draped his outer coat on the screen, then climbed onto the couch wearing only his undershirt. He smiled at her and said, "I'm back late. Did Madam miss me?"

Xie Anning: “…”

Wang Shaofu put his arm around her shoulders and was about to kiss her, but after being avoided, he buried his face in the crook of her neck and sniffed, saying in a hoarse voice, "I missed you."

This is something we cannot live without for a moment.

The lips buried in the side of the neck were nibbling restlessly.

Xie Anning turned her neck uncomfortably and nudged him: "Can you take a rest for the night?"

"...I don't want to agree to you," he said, but he didn't continue to move. He just didn't raise his head, still pressed against her neck, and his voice was muffled.

"An Ning, let's move out early."

I can’t wait until Mid-Autumn Festival.

Even he himself was tired of dealing with his parents every day.

After moving into the Xie family, the same thing happened when renovating the courtyard.

Xie Anning, whose memory had all returned, was stunned when he heard this.

After a moment of silence, she asked, "Do you really want to be my son-in-law in the Xie family?"

"Yes!" Wang Shaofu responded straightforwardly, his voice firm. "I am yours in life and yours in death. I have long made up my mind that I will be buried in the Xie family's ancestral tomb as your husband in this life."

Looking at the tone, it seems like entering the Xie family's ancestral tomb is such an honorable thing.

Xie Anning was in a complicated mood.

Whenever she thought that the man in front of her was Wang Shaofu, who had died in his arms in her previous life, she felt extremely complicated.

In his previous life, after he awakened his memory, he developed heart disease.

Now, he has two lifetimes of painful memories, and all that pain is real. Will he still have a stubborn illness in his heart?

In the end, worry prevailed, and Xie Anning reached out and touched his chest.

Inside, the heart was beating steadily.

As she stroked it, the pace seemed to pick up.

Xie Anning pursed her lips and asked, "Will it hurt?"

This question was asked abruptly.

Too abrupt!

A sudden feeling of suffocation came over Wang Shaofu, and he felt as if his heart was being tightly pinched by a big hand. He didn't dare to think about why she suddenly asked this question.

He held her tightly, his body stiffening in a way he didn't even realize.

They are all smart people.

There is an unspoken understanding in the air.

It's very quiet.

The man in front of her didn't dare to say a word, only his heartbeats, which were getting faster and faster, proved how nervous he was.

He was like a prisoner awaiting trial,

Very uneasy.

Xie Anning felt a little sad.

Her palm climbed along his heart, hooked his neck, put her face close to his, rubbed his, and whispered: "I promise, as long as you live one day, I will not abandon you."

If he died young at the age of thirty like in his previous life, she still couldn't bear to go with him.

Therefore, he should live for a long time.

This is a commitment.

My heart, which had been hanging in the air, slowly calmed down.

Wang Shaofu smiled softly and said, "Okay."

…………

I don’t know what Young Master Wang said to his parents last night. The next day, Old Madam Wang, who had been quiet for several days, sent someone to ask Xie An Ning to come over and take care of her.

Xie Anning ignored him and pretended not to hear him.

She was busy counting their finances so that she could move out early, so she had no time to deal with this old hag.

In her previous life, after the Wang family fell into decline, she had completely stopped contact with her former mother-in-law.

Having lived three lives, she has long had a complicated relationship with the Wang family. The Wang family killed her, but she did not have a good ending in both of her lives.

In this life, if Wang Shaofu goes back to the Xie family with her, the Wang family is doomed to decline.

There is one thing that Mr. Wang said that is indeed correct.

Marrying her was a misfortune for the Wang family.

On the other side, Mrs. Wang saw that her filial piety was suppressing others and she couldn't control her eldest daughter-in-law, so she was so angry that she fell backwards.

She was proud of her status and did not want to go to the main courtyard in person, so she sent someone to wait in the front yard and invite the eldest son over when he returned home.

Let his son discipline his wife.

So, when Wang Shaofu came back from his shift, he was faced with another lawsuit between the mother-in-law and his daughter-in-law.

The one who came to invite him was none other than Mother Li, whom he had once ordered to be skinned and boned.

He had no intention of going to the main courtyard and just asked a few simple questions.

After learning the whole story, a flash of impatience crossed his brows. "Go report to the old lady and tell her to go out and talk to her sisters instead of just worrying about how to set rules for her daughter-in-law."

"Uncle!" This made Mother Li pale with fear. "You..."

"And you,"

Wang Shaofu glanced at her and said calmly, "If the master does something inappropriate, it is the servant's responsibility to admonish him. If you dare to disturb the peace of the family again and do something to stir up trouble..."

Before she could finish her words, Madam Li had already fallen to her knees with a thud, "Master, please understand, I would never dare to do that."

Wang Shaofu was too lazy to argue with her and simply said, "From today on, if the old lady embarrasses An Ning again, I will kill one of your sons."

After saying this, he walked away.

Mother Li was left with a cold and wet back, collapsing on the ground.

Mother Li was a servant that came with Old Lady Wang as a dowry. They had known each other for decades. If she had just advised Old Lady Wang when she wanted to bully her daughter-in-law instead of adding fuel to the fire, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the Wang family would never be like this now.

Wang Shaofu naturally couldn't do anything to his own mother because of her kindness in giving birth to him, but he would not show mercy to kill a few cunning and instigative servants to vent his anger.

Instead of going to "seek justice" for his mother, Wang Shaofu went straight back to the main courtyard of the house.

Xie Anning was checking accounts in his study.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw her slender fingers fiddling with the abacus, and the coldness in her eyes softened immediately.

He poured a cup of cold tea and handed it to her, then asked, "How many accounts are left to be settled?"

"Yes," Xie Anning raised his chin and pointed to the tall pile of account books beside him, "They are all here."

There are too many valuables in the room, and counting them is not a trivial matter.

Especially since they want to divide the family this time, they have to settle every single detail.

She lifted her teacup and took a sip, moistening her slightly dry throat. She continued, "Your mother sent someone to call me over today, saying she had a headache and wanted me to come and take care of her. I ignored her."

"Yeah," Wang Shaofu nodded gently, moved a chair and sat down next to her, helping her to count the accounts, and said casually: "I know about this matter, you are right not to go."

He didn't know much about the inner court's methods, but he also knew that the woman was quite vicious. When she really got angry, it was like grinding flesh with a soft knife.

Previously, he thought that his Wang family had a clean and upright family tradition. Although his mother had some complaints about the eldest son's lack of an heir, he had already compromised and accepted concubines. Even for the sake of An Ning, his mother should never do anything to torture her daughter-in-law.

but……

Xie Anning asked, "Is there anything wrong with the jade talisman she sent me yesterday?"

After he finished speaking, Wang Shaofu paused slightly while flipping through the accounts.

What's so unclear about this reaction?

Xie Anning's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he put down the account book and said, "I'll go back tomorrow!"

She couldn't stay in the Wang family for another day.

"Okay," Wang Shaofu nodded and said, "We'll go back tomorrow."

"..." His behavior made Xie An Ning feel a little uncomfortable.

He took a deep breath, picked up the account book and started to calculate.

Wang Shaofu smiled and leaned over to kiss her between the eyebrows.

That's great, she's starting to feel soft towards him again.
