"The fourth brother-in-law is really good. The fourth sister is so kind, beautiful, gentle, and capable, but she has to marry another concubine. How can she not be satisfied?" In the evening, Bai Xiuzhu complained to Xiang Nan.
"This is called having a longing that is hard to satisfy, so you have to look forward to Shu." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said.
"What about you? Have you ever thought about having a wife and concubines?" Bai Xiuzhu asked immediately
"There is no man who is not tempted." Xiang Nan smiled, "But I know you won't allow it."
"You understand." Bai Xiuzhu nodded, "I tell you clearly that if you dare to take a concubine, I will divorce you. The day before our wedding, my brother specifically talked to me and told me not to be patient. I feel wronged. It doesn’t matter even if I get divorced, he will support me for the rest of my life."
"Yes, who dares to let the chief's sister be wronged?" Xiang Nan smiled, but thought in his heart, "When your brother is here, you can still point to him. Once something happens to your brother, who can you rely on?"
He insisted on accepting Xiao Lian and Leng Qingqiu, but without dealing with Bai Xiongqi, Bai Xiuzhu would not be able to make concessions. And solving Bai Xiongqi will not only knock down Bai Xiuzhu's arrogance, but also successfully marry Xiaolian and Qingqiu into the family.
Moreover, Bai Xiuzhu can get at least half of the Bai family's multi-million dollar fortune. And what is the difference between Bai Xiuzhu's money and his money.
It's just that because he married Bai Xiuzhu, the Bai family and the Jin family became in-laws. Now they are in a state of prosperity and loss. Therefore, now is not the time to kill him.
But politics has never been about emotions. Not to mention just in-laws, even if they are biological father and son, they will still turn against each other in the face of interests. Especially since Bai Xiongqi was so ambitious, he would never be willing to always be second to others.
Therefore, Xiang Nan is not in a hurry. When there is a conflict between the Jin family and the Bai family, it will not be too late to deal with him then.
…
The conflict between Jin Daozhi and Liu Shouhua did not last long, and soon ended with Liu Shouhua compromising and agreeing to send Tagawa Yingzi back to Japan.
However, Xiang Nan knew that he was actually building the plank road openly and plotting against Chen Cang secretly.
On the surface, he promised to send Tagawa Yingzi back, but in fact, he just changed the hotel to let her stay in Yanjing. Then he moved out of Jin's Mansion, out of Jin Quan's sight, and then persuaded Jin Daozhi to let her accept Tian Chuan Yingzi.
It can also be seen from this point that Liu Shouhua is a very scheming and skillful person. Jin Daozhi was so powerful, but he was still tamed by him.
After Jin Daozhi and Liu Shouhua were fine, Jin Pengzhen and Wang Yufen had another conflict.
"What do you think is going on between you and Chen Yufang? Why are you holding a paper fan painted by him?!" Wang Yufen shouted, "You go to the theater every day and do nothing more than play roles. Now you even hook up with male actors, you Are you still shameless?"
"Misunderstanding, I just went to listen to a show, why do you think so dirty?" Jin Pengzhen defended himself.
"Bah! Listening to a play requires hooking up, and listening to a play requires cuddling. How can you treat me like a three-year-old? Everyone in the city knows what kind of virtue you, the third young master of the Jin family, have." Wang Yufen scolded .
"That's enough, don't talk nonsense without evidence. You don't think it's dirtying your mouth, but I also think it's dirtying my ears." Jin Pengzhen refused.
"You don't have to quibble. Sooner or later, when I find the evidence, you see how I deal with you." Wang Yufen scolded.
…
"Yan Xi, let me tell you, you are not allowed to imitate the third brother and praise actors, especially male actors." Bai Xiuzhu said to Xiang Nan with a straight face, "Otherwise, you will never sleep with me again."
"I didn't praise the actors, let alone the male actors. It's really a huge injustice." Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
"Then what's going on between you and Chen Yufang? I heard that you often listened to him singing opera before." Bai Xiuzhu asked again.
"It was Third Brother, Baoshan, and Youchun who took me there. I stopped playing with them a long time ago." Xiang Nan said, "Last time Chen Yufang asked me to write a play for him. You saw it too. Where did I go?" Have you ever ignored him?"
"Are you really okay with him? Maybe you are not praising him, but other actors? Like that Qiu Xizhen?" Bai Xiuzhu asked again.
"It's even more impossible. Yes, Qiu Xizhen and I have been in contact before, but I haven't seen her for more than half a year now." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Besides, you should know me best. I almost always If you have to pay public food every night, how can you have any extra energy to give to others?"
When Bai Xiuzhu heard this, she immediately blushed and sighed, "In short, I don't allow you to associate with those actors. Otherwise, you will never get involved with me again."
"Okay, okay, I understand." Xiang Nan nodded, feeling depressed.
He originally didn't want to ask about Jin Pengzhen's dirty deeds. After all, it's just disgusting, but it's not a big deal.
Jin Peng's admiration for actors is purely a personal hobby, and hooking up with Chen Yufang is also his own special hobby.
But every time after a quarrel, Wang Yufen would drag Bai Xiuzhu to complain. Every time Bai Xiuzhu came back, she would give Xiang Nan a warning. He is not allowed to support actors, he is not allowed to watch big plays...
Xiang Nan didn't have that habit at all. After being scolded several times for no reason, he had to take some measures.
…
At seven o'clock in the afternoon, just after dinner, Jin Pengzhen was going to the theater.
"Third brother, are you going to the theater again?" Xiang Nan asked with a smile when he saw this.
"Yes, let's go together." Jin Pengzhen invited.
"Forget it, I won't go. There are still manuscripts to write." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
"What the hell, why are you so tired?" Jin Pengzhen said with a smile, "Listen to the third brother and enjoy yourself, that's the truth."
"Yes, I am not as cool as my third brother. Okay, walk slowly." Xiang Nan nodded, and with a flick of his hand, an internal force hit the acupuncture point on Jin Pengzhen's waist.
Sure enough, Jin Pengzhen withered in the next few days.
Seeing Chinese medicine or Western medicine is of no use at all. No matter how he nourished it, there was no response down there, which made him extremely depressed.
And after something like this happened, he had no intention of praising the actor anymore.
After all, he is almost a eunuch and has no desire to do so, so why waste money.
And he suspected that it might be because he was playful and killed both men and women that he broke the thing.
It's just that this matter was so embarrassing and there was nowhere to talk about it, so he could only endure it alone.
Therefore, in the next few days, Xiang Nan obviously felt that Jin Pengzhen's energy was listless, and his whole person was like a stallion that had been gelded and lost its momentum.
As a result, he no longer had the intention to go out to play. Instead, he began to stay at home all day, afraid to go out to meet people. After all, it is an unspeakable secret. It would be very shameful if it spread.
Seeing that he didn't go out to play and stayed at home every day, Wang Yufen originally thought it was a good thing. But he soon realized something was wrong with him.
After learning that her husband had become a disabled person at a young age and that she did not have a child, Wang Yufen suddenly felt that the world was falling apart and life was meaningless.
But now, she had no choice but to secretly take Jin Pengzhen to see doctors and witches, burn incense and worship Buddha, pray for blessings and make wishes, hoping that he would get well soon. She spent no one knows how much money she spent on this.
Seeing this, Jin Pengzhen could naturally see who was the one who truly cared for him, and he couldn't help but regret it.
Of course, this is all a story for later.
