Marrying a royal playboy and becoming a glamorous matriarch

However, under Qin Ping'an's cold gaze, Jiu Ying could only bow and smile, "What you say is right, Second Master. This servant will remember it."

Qin Pingan and Wei Qingrou entered the house hand in hand, and neither of them paid any attention to her anymore.

Jiu Ying was thoroughly annoyed and was furious, but because she was in the mistress's courtyard, she dared not show the slightest dissatisfaction.

The maidservant quickly stepped forward to support her, saying, "Sister Jiuying, please don't worry. The lady has only been married for a short time, and our second master is currently infatuated with her. When you first entered the manor, weren't you also the most favored concubine and very popular? But that will all come to an end in a few days."

Upon hearing this, Jiu Ying was not comforted. Qin Ping'an had brought her into the manor not for her beauty.

She angrily tugged at her handkerchief and said, "In a few days? If it gets colder, I'll freeze to death."

Coming to the main courtyard to intercept people and cause trouble today was already a desperate move, but as a result, they were directly reprimanded in public, and I'm afraid they'll never have a chance to get ahead.

This Wei family girl is indeed skilled; at such a young age, she has already captivated men so much that they can't take their eyes off her.

Who would have thought that an official's family could raise such a formidable vixen.

Being a seductive vixen does require talent, and Wei Qingrou believes she has no talent and can only rely on hard work.

After having dinner with Qin Ping'an, she first brought out the eight sets of clothes she had prepared for him, tried them on one by one, and then determined the parts that needed to be altered.

After running around taking care of everything for him, Qin Ping'an finally smiled.

Seeing this, Wei Qingrou breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes sparkling as she smiled and said, "Today, I delivered the new clothes for Mother to the North Courtyard. Mother was very satisfied and even gave me a set of pearl jewelry."

When doing things for your husband's family, especially for your parents-in-law, you must announce it loudly and clearly, otherwise others will not know and will assume you did nothing.

Qin Ping'an felt comforted to see his wife and mother getting along so well, but a mischievous glint appeared on his face.

"Oh my, Madam, you're quite capable. Mother is so generous to you, but she's never been this kind to me. What good things have you gotten? Bring them out quickly so I can see them."

Wei Qingrou then took out the pearl jewelry, and Qin Ping'an picked up the pearl on the earring and examined it carefully in the candlelight.

"Such a large pearl is quite rare. Let me have it and play with it."

Wei Qingrou, quick-witted and agile, snatched it away immediately, laughing, "These are all things for women, why is Second Master taking them? People will laugh at you if word gets out. I'll keep them."

Qin Ping'an looked at his empty palm and sneered, "Madam is such a stingy person."

He pinched the tip of her nose and watched her stare at him with wide eyes like a miser, her whole body wary, like a kitten about to puff up its fur. He found it amusing and interesting.

Wei Qingrou was afraid that he was thinking about the pearl, so she quickly changed the subject.

“My mother gave me this pearl headdress, which is extremely beautiful. It will be perfect to match my newly made sky-blue dress. It will definitely look elegant and fresh.”

Qin Ping'an disagreed, pointing to the bright red and gold-sprinkled long dress and saying, "This should be the right match; that one is too plain."

He then pulled Wei Qingrou aside and said, "Come here, let me draw your eyebrows."

Qin Ping'an, as expected of a seasoned lover, was adept at drawing eyebrows, sketching out the basic shape of distant mountain eyebrows in just a few strokes.

After Qin Ping'an drew Wei Qingrou's eyebrows, he wanted to get something in return. He coaxed Wei Qingrou to bend over and tried many fun tricks on her.

Even the newly made clothes were accidentally torn at the seams by Qin Ping'an.

Wei Qingrou felt extremely distressed, holding the dress and frowning with grievance.

"This was just made today, and I haven't even worn it for a day yet. You're so careless."

Qin Ping'an listened to her aggrieved complaints and looked up to see her. He saw that her eyes were alluring and her eyes were moist and red, like a beautiful peony dripping with dew. A fire was stirred in his heart.

At that moment, I was overcome with lust and just wanted to coax her to continue; I couldn't bear to see her feel wronged.

He pulled her into his arms and coaxed her gently, promising in a soft voice, "I'll buy you ten dresses, okay? Be good, don't delay any longer."

After saying that, she tore off the skirt that was in the way and eagerly coaxed the person to get to work.

Wei Qingrou half-heartedly went along with his nonsense.

The rain outside the window grew heavier, pattering loudly as it fell on the blue bricks and tiles.

The beautiful crabapple blossoms by the window, unable to withstand the heavy wind and rain, fell and turned to dust, only ceasing their fall around midnight.

The next day, after arranging matters at the Prince's residence, Wei Qingrou couldn't wait to have a carriage prepared to take Qin Ping'an to Jinxiufang in the capital.

Qin Ping'an, his face full of satisfaction, looked rather lazy. Stepping outside, the cold wind made him squint his long, narrow phoenix eyes, and he said, "What are you doing? You won't even let me have a moment's peace this early in the morning."

Wei Qingrou blinked: "Master said he would give me ten dresses, did you forget?"

Qin Ping'an was stunned, then his eyes widened suddenly.

"You've really forgotten, sir? So what you said on the bed last night doesn't count?"

Wei Qingrou covered her mouth and lowered her eyes, feigning a shy and aggrieved expression.

A man's promise is like a lottery ticket; you must claim it as soon as possible, or it will expire.

Seeing that Qin Ping'an was still pretending, Wei Qingrou grabbed his arm and shook it, "If you lie to me, I won't do what you want anymore."

Qin Ping'an felt a pang of itch as he recalled the fun he had had last night, and immediately put on a serious face, "How could I, your master, lie to my wife? Let's go."

The two got into the carriage, and Wei Qingrou said mysteriously, "You've come out with me today, it's not a bad deal, there's a happy event waiting for you."

Qin Ping'an asked with great interest, "What good news is it?"

Wei Qingrou smiled faintly: "You asked me before when the time would come, and now it's coming."

Qin Ping'an's eyes flickered slightly, and he remembered.

When Wei Qingrou mentioned the timing of the matter concerning the eldest prince, his eyes immediately lit up.

"really?"

Wei Qingrou glanced at him, "You still don't believe me?"

Qin Ping'an immediately became excited and hugged Wei Qingrou tightly, saying, "I believe you, I believe you. When I receive the reward, I will definitely take good care of you, Madam."

Wei Qingrou wasn't going to be fooled by him and pressed on, "How will you show your respect to me?"

Qin Ping'an's eyes darted around, and he leaned closer to her neck, "How about I give you a bunch of chubby babies?"

Wei Qingrou blushed immediately and tried to push against his chest to avoid him, but he pressed her against the carriage and teased her.

A traditional courtyard house in the western suburbs of Kyoto.

Wei Lanxin clutched her chest and coughed repeatedly, her eyes reddening from the discomfort, looking sickly.

She and the eldest prince were both pampered and never had to worry about anything; their seasonal clothes were always prepared and taken care of by servants.

The weather suddenly turned cold, but the two of them were completely unprepared and just kept having fun. After being caught in several autumn rains, Wei Lanxin caught a cold.

The eldest prince went out to buy medicine, and without even having a meal, he first prepared the medicine for Wei Lanxin.

After all that trouble, they finally brought the steaming hot herbal medicine.

He saw Wei Lanxin's pale face and couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

"Xin'er, take your medicine quickly."
