"Looking at your husband's solemn look, could something big happen?" Yilan had a vague premonition in her heart.
"I..." Li Yaoguang seemed a little embarrassed to say it. He hesitated for a long time before saying: "What do you think of Qiu Ju?"
Yilan was confused by his question, "My husband asked me what this girl is doing?"
"Answer my question first." Li Yaoguang was surprisingly insistent this time and insisted that Yilan answer first.
Yilan had no choice but to think about it carefully and said truthfully: "Qiu Ju is quite diligent and smart, so she can barely help a little."
Li Yaoguang's expression relaxed, and he couldn't help but look at Yilan's expression and asked, "If...I mean if, if I want to take her as my concubine, what do you think, madam?"
"What?!" Yilan took a breath, stood up immediately, and said with an increasingly cold expression: "Li Yaoguang, say it again!"
Li Yaoguang stood up and wanted to hold her hand, but Yilan waved her hand away. He said helplessly: "I already said yes, madam, don't be so excited."
"You are ready to take a concubine, how can I not be excited?" Yilan stared at him and sneered: "Li Yaoguang, are you finally tired of looking at my face for ten years?"
The look of helplessness on Li Yaoguang's face deepened, "How can this happen? It's because..."
"Is it because I have been married to your Li family for ten years, but I have not given birth to a boy or a girl?" Yilan interrupted him with a sarcastic expression. This time Li Yaoguang remained silent, obviously acquiescing to Yilan's words.
"Li Yaoguang!" Yilan pointed hard at Li Yaoguang's chest and said word by word: "Do you still remember what you said to me on the day we got married? You said you would never take a concubine in your life and would only treat me alone.
Okay. What’s the result? It’s only been ten years, and you’re already eager to take in a concubine, and you’ve even chosen a concubine. As long as I give my nod, that girl Qiu Ju will officially become the concubine in our house?”
"Madam, you know that's not what I mean. In fact, she has asked her several times, and her health is getting worse and worse. Her only wish is to see her grandson born before she dies. So do I.
I had no choice but to agree." Faced with Yilan's question, Li Yaoguang also looked ashamed. He has always claimed to be a gentleman, and a gentleman's words should be hard to follow, but he broke his promise.
"Bah, bang, bang!" Applause rang out in the main hall, and Yilan was looking at him with a sarcastic face, "What a last resort, and it's really high-sounding. Li Yaoguang, we have been married for ten years, but I am still here today.
Only then can I see your shameless face clearly."
"Madam..." Li Yaoguang didn't expect that the more he explained, the more misunderstanding she would get. He couldn't help but become anxious. When he was about to speak again, Yilan had already interrupted him angrily, "Don't call me, I'm not your wife!"
"Madam!" Li Yaoguang ignored her sarcastic words and insisted on holding her hand and saying: "You know that I am not that kind of person. If you want to take a concubine, you have already taken it. It is really... Well, there are three unfilial piety, not having children is the worst.
Seeing that I am already thirty
We have been married for ten years, but our children have always been desolate and have no children. Because of this, I was often gossiped about in the Hanlin Academy. I promise you, can I only accept Qiu Ju? And I will definitely do it in the future.
Treat you as good as before."
"Treat me well?" Yilan was stunned for a moment, and then she started laughing like crazy. After a long time, she suppressed her laughter and shook off his hand, and her warm hands turned cold again, "Li Yaoguang,
Don’t you think it’s hypocritical to say these things? In the past, you were my husband, but in the future, there will be another woman to call you husband and sleep with you. How are you going to treat me like before?”
Seeing that Li Yaoguang was speechless by her question, she said angrily: "Also, after ten years of marriage, not decades, who said we won't have children, maybe we will have children next year; but you are in a hurry to have children."
Taking a concubine clearly means liking the new and hating the old, and despising me as my legitimate wife."
"Madam, you believe me, I really don't." Li Yaoguang defended himself again and again, even swearing to God, but Yilan didn't believe it at all, and his emotions became more and more excited, which made him feel helpless, so he had to say: "Madam, what do you want from me?
What can I do to believe that I am sincere to you?"
Yilan looked at him with disdain and said: "Don't you feel disgusted if you are sincere to me now? Li Yaoguang, let me tell you, I will never agree to taking concubines, and Qiu Ju, I will take her away tomorrow
I'll send you out of the house so that you won't be able to see him again for the rest of your life." At the end of the sentence, she also became angry. Although she couldn't say she loved or liked Li Yaoguang, her things were hers and she would never allow anyone to get involved with them.
Seeing Yilan's decisive look, Li Yaoguang was helpless. He originally came to test Yilan's attitude, but he didn't expect Yilan to have such a big reaction to this matter. It was really unexpected.
That's all, Yilan has always married his own wife, and he cannot be a heartless person. And as Yilan said, after ten years of marriage, not decades, there is still a chance to have a child.
After thinking about this, Li Yaoguang sighed and said: "Since Madam doesn't like it, then I won't take concubines. As for Qiu Ju..." He was about to say that there was no need to send him out of the house, but Yilan had already glanced over.
His eyes were very cold,
Li Yaoguang understood that if he didn't follow her temperament, he would never live in peace, so he had to change his words and said: "Just do what you want, but Qiu Ju has been with us for a few years, so give her a few more taels of silver."
Bar."
"Yes." Yilan agreed reluctantly, but her expression was still cold.
Li Yaoguang pulled her shoulders and persuaded softly: "Okay, what happened just now was because of your husband. My good wife, don't be angry with your husband anymore." Yilan snorted and said nothing.
She didn't push him away anymore and allowed him to hold her in his arms.
After lunch, Li Yaoguang went to the study to read, while Yilan ordered someone to call Qiu Ju. This girl was the most outstanding among the servants in the house in terms of appearance and figure. It turned out that she was serving her, but later the old lady
There was a shortage of people to take care of him there, so I transferred him there.
"Qiu Ju, do you know why I called you here?" Yilan asked slowly while taking a sip of tea.
Qiu Ju's face turned slightly red, she wrung her fingers and lowered her head and said, "I don't know what I said to Madam."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a loud "thunk" in her ears, which startled her. She glanced around and saw Yilan pressing the tea cup with a blue face. The sound just now was exactly what she said.
It is emitted when the tea cup is pressed onto the small table.
"I see you not only understand but also understand very clearly." Every word was like a knife scraping across Qiu Ju's delicate face, frightening her out of her wits. She quickly knelt on the ground and said in a panic: "Slave..." Qiu Ju
She wanted to say something, but she was so confused that she didn't know what to say.
