Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

He suddenly remembered the gift Zhan Xuan had given him, and he quickly stood up and said, "Qing Ning, wait a moment, let's look at something!"

Zhan Qingning looked at him curiously: "What is that?"

Xie Jianshu took out a brocade box from under the bed, his face full of shame: "Brother Xuan said it's a good thing, and it can be of great help to our first wedding night!"

Zhan Qingning reacted instantly, and she raised her hand to push him away: "Look for yourself, I'm sleepy, I want to go to sleep!"

She pulled the covers over her head, and her breathing became heavier.

Xie Jianshu reached out and opened the window, only to see images that made his head spin and his blood boil.

He suddenly realized that this was the way to stop the pain.

He couldn't wait any longer and immediately pulled back the brocade quilt covering Zhan Qingning's head.

She glared at him and scolded, "What are you doing?"

He said with a burning gaze, "Qingning, let me nibble on you first, and then you won't feel pain anymore!"

Zhan Qingning looked completely bewildered: "Eat?"

Xie Jianshu immediately put his mouth to the crook of her neck and gently bit down, explaining indistinctly, "This is a bite!"

Zhan Qingning was both amused and exasperated. This fool had probably been fooled by the picture book Zhan Xuan had given him.

This isn't called "nibbling," it's clearly "kissing."

Before she could say anything, Xie Jianshu began to follow suit and put it into practice.

Sure enough, Zhan Qingning really didn't have the energy or the inclination to correct him anymore.

When the pain struck, she still shed tears.

She opened her mouth and bit Xie Jianshu's shoulder hard, crying as she said, "Xie Jianshu, you have to treat me well from now on. If you dare to betray me, I'll bite off your ear!"

Xie Jianshu replied in a hoarse voice, "I'd give you my life without hesitation!"

That night, Zhan Qingning was exhausted.

Even though she remembered that she had to get up early to serve tea to her mother-in-law, she still couldn't get up.

Because Xie Jianshu was too rough, he bit her all over, leaving her body covered in bruises.

She was in a lot of pain and was so tired that she was dizzy. By the time she was fully awake, it was almost noon.

She sat up abruptly, her face full of annoyance, and exclaimed, "Someone, someone come quick!"

The first to enter was a young maid, Tang'er, her personal attendant.

She smiled and said, "Madam, you're awake?"

Zhan Qingning blinked blankly, still somewhat unaccustomed to her new identity.

She has gone from being the eldest daughter of the Zhan family to the wife of the heir of the Xie family.

She frowned and said, "Tang'er, what time is it? Why didn't you wake me up earlier? Don't we still need to serve tea to our mother-in-law?"

She knows the rules best and doesn't want to be criticized on her second day of marriage.

Tang'er quickly explained, "Madam, the message came first from the Old Madam's side. She said that she was in a good mood last night and drank too much with the Lady of the Marquis. She hasn't woken up yet, so the Young Master decided to let you sleep a little longer and told us not to disturb you!"

Zhan Qingning felt a warmth in her heart. Her mother-in-law wasn't drunk; she just wanted her to sleep a little longer.

She can't push her luck!

She got dressed and got out of bed, but a sudden, intense pain made her legs buckle.

A figure rushed over and hugged her tightly.

It was Xie Jianshu, who was anxiously looking at her: "Qingning, are you alright?"

Zhan Qingning's ears turned as red as if they had bled. She reached out and pushed him away, saying, "Don't you know whether I'm okay or not? You're such a reckless man!"

Xie Jianshu scratched his head guiltily: "I'm sorry, how about I go and get you a doctor?"

Zhan Qingning quickly stopped her: "No!"

She couldn't bear the humiliation; it was all Xie Jianshu's fault for being too strong and never satisfied.

She bit her lip hard, and after a moment of silence, she said, "I can apply some medicine myself. You should go out now!"

Xie Jianshu really wanted to help her, but seeing the look in her eyes, he quickly walked away.

About the time it takes to drink a cup of tea passed before Zhan Qingning was helped out by Tang'er.

She blushed and said, "Let's go, let's go serve tea to Mother!"

When the two arrived at Xie Ru's yard, they saw her pruning the flowers.

She loves growing flowers. So the whole yard is filled with their fragrance, which is very pleasant.

Zhan Qingning quickly stepped forward and bowed: "Mother, your daughter-in-law overslept and missed the tea ceremony. Please punish me!"

Xie Ru quickly grabbed her arm: "Sweetie, it's not that you were lazy, it's that your mother was lazy and slept until noon. It's all my fault. It's not too late to serve tea now, go inside!"

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked into the house hand in hand, with Xie Jianshu following behind.

After the tea ceremony was completed, Xie Ru gave Zhan Qingning a small red box.

She said kindly, "From now on, all the properties of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion will be yours, and you will be in charge of managing all the shop deeds!"

Zhan Qingning looked down and saw a thick stack of papers. It seemed that the Marquis of Weiyuan's family was very wealthy.

She carefully put it away: "Thank you for your trust, Mother. Qingning will do her best to manage the Marquis's mansion!"

As the two were talking, an old woman rushed in and whispered, "Madam, someone from the Xie family has arrived. They say the old lady is seriously ill and they request that you bring the young master and his wife with you!"

Xie Ru's expression changed drastically. Why was Old Madam Xie suddenly so ill? It must be because of yesterday's scandal, where her most beloved granddaughter did not get what she wanted.

Xie Jianshu asked worriedly, "Mother, what's wrong? Shouldn't we pack up and go back to the Xie family right away?"

Xie Ru nodded: "We have to go back. It's time to settle the score with them!"

Zhan Qingning's eyes flickered. She remembered that her mother had given her several old ginseng roots as part of her dowry. She decided to take them to the Xie family first, as they would surely come in handy.

The family of three arrived at the Xie residence in a carriage, where they found Master Xie and Madam Xie waiting at the entrance.

Madam Xie spoke first: "Ru-mei, Mother said she had a headache last night, and this morning she suddenly had difficulty breathing. We called a doctor to come and see her, and he said she might have a stroke. What should we do?"

Xie Ru calmly said, "I'll go take a look first!"

The group strode into the house, and when Madam Xie scrutinized Zhan Qingning, a complex look flashed in her eyes.

Madam Xie's courtyard was very spacious, and the house was very tidy, with incense burning inside.

Upon seeing the old lady lying on the bed, Xie Ru immediately cried out, "Mother, how are you?"

Madam Xie gripped her hand tightly and said urgently, "Ru'er, you've finally come. Do you still resent your mother for insisting on marrying you off to that man back then?"

Xie Ru shook her head: "I'm fine now, Mother, please don't dwell on the past!"

Tears welled up in Madam Xie's eyes: "I don't mind dying, but what I worry about most is your eldest brother's daughter. She is the girl I raised with great care. If I don't see her find someone to spend her life with, I won't be able to die in peace!"

Zhan Qingning frowned; she sensed that there was something more to Old Madam Xie's words.

She glanced at Xie Jianshu instinctively and noticed that his expression was also very unpleasant.
