Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 67

Just as Qin Shaoze was racking his brains trying to figure out where he had offended Mo Zhonggui, Liu Manman came in.

He immediately poured out his grievances to Qin Shaoze.

"Shaoze, that Master Luo only taught for one day before resigning. Even offering him such a high tuition fee didn't help! He must look down on Rui'er because he's no longer the heir of the Yongning Marquis! These so-called scholars claim to be noble, but aren't they just a bunch of snobs!..."

Qin Shaoze listened, feeling only more annoyed than ever.

He was already having a headache, but Liu Manman couldn't even handle something as small as hiring a tutor!

"Then go look again! If money can't help, then think of another way! You'll eventually find a suitable one!"

Liu Manman was very dissatisfied: "If I had a solution, would I need to come to you? ... It's all because the Shen family stole Rui'er's title of heir! You, as a marquis, can't even decide which son to pass your title to. What kind of head of a family is so incompetent!..."

Liu Manman was full of resentment and kept talking, blaming Shen Lingjun, Qin Shaoze, Old Madam Qin, Li Ma, Shen Lingjun's twins... pushing all the problems and responsibilities onto others.

In the end, she forgot why she had come in the first place; she was just venting her pent-up resentment.

Qin Shaoze felt his head buzzing from her nagging, and he was extremely annoyed.

How did the woman who once captivated him at first sight become such an annoying person?

He didn't want to respond to Liu Manman's complaints at all, and didn't even bother to say a word. He got up and walked out.

"Qin Shaoze! ...Where are you going? I'm talking to you! What's with your attitude?... "

Liu Manman's angry voice came from behind, but Qin Shaoze ignored it and left the place that was giving him a splitting headache as if he were fleeing.

The matter of Qin Xuanrui hiring a tutor is now a minor issue for him; what matters most is his future!

Mo Zhonggui wields absolute power in Bei Yi. Anyone who offends this top eunuch will have no future and will certainly not have a good ending!

Qin Shaoze couldn't figure out what he had done, so he decided to ask Mo Chonggui directly.

If there's a misunderstanding, or if the matter isn't serious, he still has a chance to salvage the situation; he can't just do nothing.

Qin Shaoze ran back and forth between the palace gates, the Directorate of Ceremonial, and the Mo residence for several days. Finally, one afternoon, he waited for Mo Chonggui to return outside the Mo residence.

He stepped forward and bowed, saying, "This humble general greets Commander Mo."

Mo Chonggui glanced at him: "Is there something you need, Marquis Yongning?"

Qin Shaoze felt that Mo Zhonggui didn't seem to have the patience to beat around the bush with him, so he mustered his courage and simply got straight to the point:

"Lord Mo, I wonder if I have offended you in any way? I am foolish and unaware of my own ignorance. I beg you to tell me frankly, and I will do my best to apologize."

Mo Zhonggui gave a half-smile, neither denying nor directly answering his question.

Instead, he said leisurely, "Is that so? Then you'd be willing to send your first wife here to apologize?"

These words struck Qin Shaoze like a thunderbolt, almost making him faint!

His face turned deathly pale, and his head seemed to be buzzing.

"My first wife... Shen Lingjun?"

Mo Zhonggui sneered, "Otherwise, is it your shameless so-called concubine? ... Not everyone is as blind as you."
