Remarrying Chun Yuan

Seeing Huang Wanwan's helpless expression, Liu Yuechu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Who told you to marry into such an unreliable family? You'll get used to it. Nobody expects you to be so accommodating. What other family is as easygoing as ours?"

Even Lin Mengyu was disciplined for quite some time after marrying into the Lu family before Madam Lu was finally at ease.

Huang Wanwan didn't care about any of that. She could relax when she wanted to, but she couldn't skip the proper etiquette. "Anyway, get up quickly and call me sister-in-law. I'm going to give you a red envelope and change my address." Huang Wanwan dragged her out of bed.

Liu Yuechu was both amused and exasperated, and could only nod in agreement, "Alright, alright, my dear sister-in-law, you woman, aren't you even ashamed? You come here so ostentatiously to show off your status, what kind of sister-in-law does that!"

"This isn't the first time you've teased me, do you think I'm afraid of you?" Huang Wanwan said.

Liu Yuechu suddenly had a thought, "So, is my older brother lacking in stamina? How come you're so energetic this morning? You should have Physician Sun examine his pulse to see if he can produce offspring for the Liu family!"

"Such a married woman, she dares to say anything!"

"Don't try to put me down, you are now too..."

The two chattered and laughed, which made the servants in the courtyard laugh along with them.

Liu Yuechu understood that Huang Wanwan valued this matter, so she got up, washed, changed her clothes, and put on makeup.

With everything prepared, everyone in the household was summoned.

She changed her address first, and then Huang Wanwan rewarded the children.

The steward, nannies, maids, and servants all stepped forward one after another to pay their respects to Huang Wanwan according to their status.

Huang Wanwan was well-prepared and acted generously.

Liu Yuechu also took the opportunity to hand over the management of the household affairs to Huang Wanwan, only instructing the housekeeper to consult her for any future matters.

"...Have the managers of the trading company come over to pay their respects to you in the evening. They're all too busy during the day to have time." Liu Yuechu is not involved in affairs now, so the managers naturally have to take care of things themselves.

After having children, she was happy to relinquish power. Now, all she wants is to see her son and daughter happy every day.

How wonderful is a life of just eating and waiting to die?

She deserves to enjoy some happiness.

After careful consideration, Huang Wanwan said, "I'd better not get involved in business matters for now. I'll be content as long as I can manage the affairs of the household well."

She knows how to proceed gradually, step by step.

The Liu family is not the Huang family after all; they don't have the trivial matters of internal power struggles. But business acumen is not something that can be learned overnight.

Liu Yuechu didn't insist. "It's necessary to get to know each other. Whether you want to help out is up to you. It's all up to you."

Huang Wanwan nodded happily, and the two chatted for a while before having lunch together.

In the evening, the mansion was filled with joy and laughter once again.

On the third day after Huang Wanwan's return to her parents' home, Liu Musheng lavishly prepared several cartloads of gifts to make a grand entrance for her.

The delivery of the gift list naturally aroused envy among everyone in the Huang family's inner quarters.

Huang Fan, however, was very displeased and scolded him for his extravagance and wasteful spending, lecturing him for two whole hours before letting him go back.

Huang Wanwan really didn't want to acknowledge this father anymore, but when she heard that he would soon be leaving the capital, she could only swallow her grievances for the time being.

A month later, Liu Yuechu moved to the Duke of Baoguo's mansion with Yuan Cuo and his maids.

The Duke of Baoguo's mansion also had a "Yuanchu Pavilion", which was built by Yuan Cuo specifically for her.

"I've also prepared courtyards for the two children. They can stay in the east courtyard for now, and then they can live separately when they're older." Yuan Cuo didn't want these two little devils to disturb his sweet and blissful life every night.

Previously, Liu Yuechu was recuperating, and he had been enduring it.

Now that he's in his new home, he can finally try to touch his wife.

Those hungry eyes seemed to want to devour Liu Yuechu whole.

Liu Yuechu had long yearned for his comfort.

If it weren't for the fact that premature birth is harmful to her health, and that she gave birth to twins at once, which was repeatedly warned by Physician Sun, even if Yuan Cuo could tolerate it, she couldn't.

"Then I'll grant my husband's wish?" Her eyes crinkled with a smile, gradually becoming dreamy, and her moist lips, like a dragonfly skimming the water, gave him a quick peck.

That single touch stirred a fire within me, and all night long, red candles flickered, accompanied by soft moans.

The next day, Yuan Cuo did not get up to go to work either; both of them slept until the third watch of the night before getting up.

Yuan Cuo had lunch with her, but was then hurriedly summoned to the palace.

Liu Yuechu took a bath and planned to sleep for another afternoon.

The two little ones were quite unhappy because they couldn't see their mother. Only after holding the two little bundles of joy were they allowed to sleep.

When I woke up, the sky was already ablaze with red clouds, and it was dusk.

Yuan Cuo hadn't returned yet, and Liu Yuechu wasn't sure whether to wait for him to have dinner together.

"You don't need to wait. There's an urgent order from the palace, so I'm afraid you won't be back until very late today." Hou Lai was already used to being on the roof.

He darted down and leaped down, making the two little ones clap and giggle with joy.

Liu Yuechu asked in surprise, "Still with the State of Chu?"

"The State of Chu launched a surprise attack on our territory and destroyed two ships that were trading with the State of Yan."

"A significant amount of cargo was lost."

"The Yan caravan has been slaughtered, and the Yan envoy has arrived in the capital to discuss a joint attack on Chu. This time, it seems that there will be no end to the fighting."

……

After Yan fully allied with Qi, it was regarded as an enemy by Chu. Since Chu dared not attack Meng, it naturally took its anger out on the weakest state, Yan.

Liu Yuechu wasn't thinking about whether or not to attack Chu, but rather whether Yuancuo's position was somewhat awkward, given that his birth mother was the Empress of Chu.

Moreover, even if he attacks Chu, would Emperor Qi Xiao trust him?

"Being the Duke of Baoguo is not easy, and living in the Duke of Baoguo's mansion is not easy either." Liu Yuechu picked up her chopsticks and started picking up food. After all, no matter how worried she was, she couldn't be worried about food.

Yuan Cuo did not leave the palace until midnight.

He sat in the carriage of the Duke of Baoguo's mansion, listening to the clattering sounds in the dead of night, his mood growing increasingly cold.

Thinking of the suspicious look in Emperor Qi Xiao's eyes today, he knew it was only a matter of time.

"Although the status of the Great Qi has risen, your Qi emperor is inherently humble and completely lacks the backbone of an emperor." The old man from Yan was also in the carriage, and his evaluation of Emperor Qi Xiao was very impolite.

“It’s just the loss of two ships, you shouldn’t have made a trip all the way to the capital of Daqi.” Yuan Cuo looked at him expressionlessly. “So, what else did you come all this way for?”

Upon hearing this, the old man immediately became extremely respectful. "This time, although we only lost a ship, someone from Qi actually sold information to Chu. I don't know where I went wrong, so I dared not send anyone to deliver the message and could only come to see you in person."

Yuan Cuo's expression grew even colder. "Not surprising at all."

"So, should we investigate?" the old man asked.

"Who are you afraid of being found out about?" Yuan Cuo asked with a smile.

The old man was speechless for a moment. He glanced outside twice, unsure whether he should say what he was about to say.

“Speak, these are my men,” Yuan Cuo said with absolute certainty.

The old man remained cautious and uttered the three words "Emperor Qi Xiao" in a hoarse voice.

Yuan Cuo pursed his lips, and only four words came to mind: "His merits overshadowed those of his master."
