Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

"The Song family is already in a bad situation, but with the help of the Duke of Luo, the Song family may be able to make a comeback, and Song Yanzhou will be able to reach a higher level with the help of the Duke of Luo!"

Yao Jinsheng's eyes were full of resentment. He didn't really have any feelings for Luo Qingyin. He just felt a little pleasure in being able to sleep with a woman that Song Yanzhou had liked.

Of course, the most important thing was that he was attracted by the Duke of Luo's status.

If it were before, Luo Qingyin was still young, and given the status of the Yao family, they would never have been able to climb up to the Luo family.

Over the past two years, he has been working hard, but how difficult it is to thrive in the officialdom.

If he had Duke Luo as his backer, things would be completely different. That's why he had feelings for Luo Qingyin back then.

It's understandable that I'm unhappy about having to hand everything over to someone else.

"Your mother knows this too, but a woman who can't even have children will only be a burden if you marry her!"

"Look at how frail Luo Qingyin is, and you, who enjoy tormenting people, will probably die soon." Xu Shiyi couldn't help but worry.

Yao Jinsheng chuckled lightly, "Isn't it good that you're dead? Then you can marry another woman and naturally have children."

Xu Shiyi was slightly taken aback, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes, "But your previous wife is dead. If another one dies, I'm afraid no one else will dare to marry their daughters into the family."

"Everyone in the entire capital knows that Luo Qingyin is frail."

"This was just a fall into the water, and they've seen so many doctors. It's not surprising they get sick and die eventually. How can you blame me?"

Yao Jinsheng's smile deepened, "If I marry her now, everyone will think I'm truly sincere towards her."

If I then spread the word that she can't have children, everyone will just praise me for being loyal and devoted.

Even after she dies, the Luo family will still be our relatives, wouldn't that be perfect?

"If I don't marry her, I'll give the opportunity to Song Yanzhou. Don't forget that he's already a fourth-rank Dongzhonglang General at such a young age. The Emperor remembers General Song's merits and might be thinking of supporting him to become the next General Song."

With the Luo family's support, and since he's my enemy, our lives will only become more difficult. What do you say, Mother?

Xu Shiyi hadn't thought much about it at first, but after hearing her son's analysis, her expression changed drastically.

“You’re right. Mother didn’t even think of that. But now the Luo family has no intention of arranging a marriage between us. What should we do?”

“Mother, just say that we don’t care about this matter. Song Yanzhou must have said the same thing at the time.”

We don't care about that now, and we're still determined to marry Luo Qingyin. I want to see how they choose!

Yao Jinsheng sneered, "Didn't Song Yanzhou hire someone to beat me up? I'll make sure he doesn't have a good time!"

Just as Xu Shiyi hurriedly left, Yao Jinsheng summoned his servant.

"I asked you to investigate Song Ruozhen's whereabouts, have you found anything?"

"Young master, I have already inquired and found out that Miss Song doesn't usually go out. She only goes out when she is handling business at the shop."

"Because our herbal medicine shop has been handed over to them, she will be going there these next couple of days..."

As the servant spoke, he kept glancing at his young master's expression. This shop was the most popular in their household.

Now that it has been handed over to the Song family, the Song family took over immediately. When he inquired about the news, he learned that the Song family had already made a new plaque and hung it up. The speed was simply outrageous.

Yao Jinsheng's face darkened, and he was severely reprimanded by his father for this matter!

The Song family has caused them such a great loss, how can we let it go so easily?

Absolutely not!

"So she's been going to the herbal medicine shop every night for the past two days?"

"Exactly."

A playful glint flashed in Yao Jinsheng's eyes. Song Yanzhou dared to send people to beat him up, so brazenly. He would make Song Yanzhou suffer a good loss!

I wonder if he'll still be able to laugh if he knew his sister was ruined because of his actions?

……

As darkness fell, Song Ruozhen continued to tally the accounts at the herbal medicine shop.

Now that the Yao family's herbal medicine shop has fallen into their hands, there are still many things to arrange and handle before they can fully take over, which happens to be connected with the family's herbal medicine shop.

Some of the medicinal herbs were sourced from sources that were previously inferior to those from the Yao family, so they naturally took this opportunity to acquire them as well.

The original owner was already very good at business, and she happened to be good at it as well. With the addition of some more innovative business methods, she handled everything with ease.

"Miss, everything has been arranged according to your instructions. Rest assured, we will handle it properly."

The shopkeeper smiled broadly. The young lady's instructions were simple, and he had arranged almost all the possible troubles that might arise.

I originally thought that Miss would be devastated after the annulment of the engagement and wouldn't be in the mood to do business for a while, but now I feel that not only has she not been affected, but she is actually getting stronger.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Song Ruozhen nodded, turned around and left the shop with Chen Xiang.

"Miss, Youfu, who is in charge of driving the horses, has an upset stomach and has gone to the restroom. Shall we wait a bit or go back first?"

Chenxiang couldn't help but frown. "I don't know what's wrong with him. He's already gone to the outhouse three times this evening."

"They must have eaten something bad."

Song Ruozhen didn't take it to heart. "I just happened to go to the shop on the street to buy some peach blossom pastries to take back with me. My mother likes to eat them."

However, as soon as the master and servant left, someone immediately followed and chased after them.

"We need to keep a close eye on them, and make sure we don't lose them!"

"Don't worry, she's doomed today! But what about the girl next to her?"

"If that girl doesn't behave, just send her to the beggars' den. There are so many beggars, why worry about having too many women?"

The man chuckled, a greedy smile slowly spreading across his lips. "It's a shame to just let those beggars have it all. Let's have some fun first."

"Big brother, are you serious?"

"Of course! These are all virgins. We can deflower them first, then throw them over there!"

After buying peach blossom pastries, Song Ruozhen noticed that Youfu had not yet returned, so the two of them went back to the mansion.

Halfway there, Song Ruozhen realized something was wrong.

"Someone is following us."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiang instinctively wanted to turn around, but Song Ruozhen stopped her, saying, "Don't turn around, don't let them see us!"

"Miss, what do we do now? This road is a bit secluded, what if they make a move..."

Chenxiang's face turned deathly pale. She forced a smile, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "Miss, you must run! I'll find a way to stop them!"

Seeing that Chenxiang's voice was trembling with fear, yet she still resolutely wanted to protect her, Song Ruozhen felt a surge of tenderness in her heart and chuckled softly:

"Don't be afraid, these are just a few small fry. I can take care of your young lady with ease."

"It's just lucky they haven't made a move for so many days, today is their unlucky day!"
