Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 581 Can’t understand

  New marriages are not just for young people. Men born into powerful families can have a bride at any time if they like.

In the old residence of Prince Yong's Mansion, Xie took the initiative and gave Tao Yao to Zhao Xuan.

However, it is very different from the grand scene of marrying a noble girl in the Zhenguo Palace. The adopted woman is just a lowly person. Even if the master takes him into the room, there is no need for any ceremony. A table was served, which was an extra favor from the mistress.

Zhao Xuan was naturally satisfied with his beauty, but this was all due to his wife's virtuousness.

How could he enjoy such a happy life if his wife hadn't found such a man.

On the morning of the next day, Zhao Xuan came over from across the courtyard. Mrs. Xie was having breakfast. When she saw her husband coming in, she asked, "Why aren't you eating with the newlyweds over there?"

Zhao Xuan sat down opposite his wife and said with a smile: "It's just a concubine. It's not worth having me eat with you." After saying that, she personally prepared dishes for her wife and said gently: "You are pregnant, so eat more."

 Xie Shi smiled, said nothing more, and just started eating.

The couple were eating, and the mother-in-law came in and replied to Zhao Xuan and Xie: "Your Majesty, Madam, just now I sent someone to report to Concubine Meng, saying that Concubine Meng fainted early in the morning."

Zhao Xuan blurted out: "Real or false?"

Tongchuan's mother-in-law replied: "This is what I heard from the people across the courtyard. As for whether it's true or not, I don't know."

Zhao Xuan waved his mother-in-law to step back, then looked at his wife.

Xie Shi smiled and said: "She keeps making trouble every now and then. If you come to me to ask for advice, how can I know whether it is true or false?"

Zhao Xuan sighed slightly: "Then I'll go over and take a look."

With that said, he stood up reluctantly, sighed and left.

After Zhao Xuan left, Amu came in and said to Mrs. Xie, "I'm afraid it's true this time. I saw people in the courtyard lying on their backs and making a lot of noise."

After Xie had finished her meal, she took the tea from her maid's hand, gargled her mouth carefully, frowned and said, "I just slept with that concubine for one night, and she can't hold her breath anymore."

 “Ha, that’s too narrow-minded.”

Just as he was talking, Yanzhi entered the room and gloated: "I just found out that Meng didn't seem to sleep all night last night. I heard that she kept crying and fainted as soon as she got out of bed early in the morning."

Amu said: "I am pregnant and have been crying all night. How can I not feel dizzy?"

Xie used the brocade handkerchief to test her mouth: "Oh, I think highly of her."

Just as he was talking, the messenger from outside came in again, saying that Taoyao came to pay his respects to Mrs. Xie, and Mrs. Xie ordered someone to come in.

 After a while, Tao Yao entered.

She was originally a beauty, but now she has become a concubine. With this little dress up, she is even more beautiful, making people unable to take their eyes away.

Mrs. Xie looked her up and down and sighed, "What a beauty." Then she gave her a seat.

Tao Yao sat down on the embroidered pier and talked to Xie in detail about what happened to Zhao Xuan at his place yesterday.

Even after Zhao Xuan drank a few cups of tea and said a few words, he reported everything to Xie.

Mr. Xie couldn't help but be happy: "You don't have to be so careful. Your face alone is enough to capture his soul."

Tao Yao was surprised: "Madam, I am not trying to seduce anyone. You know what I am thinking."

Mrs. Xie suddenly realized and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely be able to do what I promised you." She looked at Taoyao: "There are too many rules in this capital. If I want to get you out of your humble status, I will naturally do it." It's difficult. When you return to Yizhou in the future, I have plenty of ways to help you."

Tao Yao said gratefully, "Well, I'd like to thank you madam."

Mrs. Xie said doubtfully: "I heard that you don't have any relatives anymore. If you get rid of your lowly status, what will be your way out? In fact, Prince Yong's Mansion is also a good home. You can ask the girls around you. I am loyal to My people are all kind to me. If you stay in the house in the future, as long as you behave and behave yourself, I will not treat you badly. Putting aside other things, I can guarantee you good food and clothing."

　　It’s not that Xie is a bodhisattva, but the women she has met like Taoyao are all bent on finding a stable home. This girl is smart and can handle things, so Xie doesn’t mind keeping her.

 Zhao Xuan also had many concubines in the palaces around him, and there was always no shortage of beauties. Instead of facing those embroidered pillows, Mr. Xie preferred such smart people.

After hearing what Mr. Xie said, Taoyao thanked her again and said, "Although I have no relatives alive anymore, I have skills. As long as I can escape my lowly status, I will find a clean place where I can make a living as a female celebrity or I teach piano art for a living, and to be honest, please don’t take offense, Madam. Even if I live a more miserable life, it’s better than being a toy for others.”

　　That a lowly woman could have such a spirit really impressed Mr. Xie with admiration.

Xie promised: "Don't worry, I will definitely make you get what you want."

Tao Yao stood up and thanked her: "Madam, please don't worry. No one will bother me when I have a concubine here. She will be able to give birth and raise children."

 Understand that people are easy to talk to.

Mrs. Xie was very satisfied with Taoyao and rewarded her with many brocade jewelry before ordering her to be sent back.

 In the town government’s mansion.

When Li Kun woke up, his side was already empty. He sat up straight and stretched his neck to look towards the outer room. He saw that the bride was fully dressed and busy outside. He quickly put on his soap boots and got out of bed.

When Dong Qing saw Li Kun coming out, she gave a slight salute: "Good morning, Young Master."

The bride was already fully dressed, wearing a crimson skirt, her black hair was neatly tied up, and there was a butterfly wing in her hair. When she nodded slightly toward him, the butterfly's wings trembled slightly, like a tiny star. Liu, tickling Li Kun's heart.

Li Kun quickly returned the greeting and said gently: "Why did you get up so early?"

The bride replied: "I have to meet my elders this morning, so I got up early."

She raised her head slightly, and the morning light filtering through the window lattice reflected on her hibiscus-like face, which reminded Li Kun of the scene in the wedding tent yesterday.

 His face turned slightly red.

 The young man is full of energy, and he has married the woman he likes, so it is natural for him to be trendy and worshipful.

Li Kun suppressed his thoughts and said gently: "Although there are many elders in the family, they are all kind-hearted. Don't be afraid."

Yesterday's wedding was exhausting, and the wedding night was hard work of its own. Under such circumstances, she could get up so early. She must be worried.

 A little girl is naturally scared when she comes to a new environment for the first time.

 He is her husband and should take care of her and protect her.

 “Thank you, Mr. Sir, for your comfort.”

She bowed to him again, her tone still calm, and she didn't seem as uneasy and scared as he had imagined about meeting his elders.

Li Kun smiled, but didn’t know how to answer the question.

His bride seemed a little unclear to him for a moment.
