When Wen Shichu heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold. He remembered that he had met Li Shouyang by the lotus pond before. Unexpectedly, Li Shouyang actually fell in love with her and wanted to take her as his concubine?
He laughed angrily at first when he heard this. Did he still think he was a piece of cake? A playboy who has accomplished nothing in his thirties and relies on his elder brother to make a living, actually wants her to be his concubine? Who gave him the courage?
"Madam, you are joking. I am not worthy of the third master of your house. What's more, I have no intention of becoming a concubine. Madam, please refuse for me." Wen Shichu refused directly.
Mrs. Hou had actually known that she would answer this for a long time, but she still asked again without giving up: "Don't you think about it more? Although my brother-in-law has no great potential, he is not a bad person, and the third younger brother and sister are good-tempered. You don't know how to trick people... If you marry him, at least you will be settled for the rest of your life, and you won't have to show off by yourself..."
The more Mrs. Hou spoke, the more she felt guilty, and Wen Shichu's face became more and more ugly. Although she persuaded Wen Shichu in this way, she knew how unreasonable her words were, so she looked at Wen Shichu's indifferent eyes. , she couldn't talk anymore.
"In one month, my employment period in your house will expire. I will leave at that time. If Madam wants the ladies to continue studying, she must prepare in advance to hire other teachers." Wen Shichu did not say anything to Na He didn't say anything about my concubine, but changed the subject.
Madam Hou immediately understood the implication of her words. It must be her brother-in-law who wanted her to make up her mind to leave the Hou Mansion. Madam Hou sighed and did not try to persuade her to stay: "You have to worry about my daughters. , Aunt Wen, if you still want to continue to be a nurturing aunt, I can introduce you to other families."
"No, I don't plan to continue doing this business." Wen Shichu smiled. Although this kind of job is not selling oneself as a slave, it is still dependent on others, and one needs to pay attention to everything. With this experience, she can She doesn't want to do it anymore. If she meets a nice and lewd man like Li Shouyang again, she doesn't have the patience to deal with them one by one. After all, her skin is very eye-catching now. There are so many powerful people in the capital. If there are too many, who knows if a man will try to rob her by force?
Although she is not afraid of trouble, she is afraid of trouble.
Mrs. Hou didn't say anything more about this and asked Wen Shichu to leave. She was unwilling to be Li Shouyang's concubine, so she couldn't force her, so she had to tell Li Shouyang that Wen Shichu didn't want to marry him and asked him not to think about it anymore. .
Li Shouyang finally fell in love with a beauty, but he couldn't get her. Will he be willing to give up?
Naturally it was impossible, so he began to pursue Wen Shichu like a butterfly, pretending to meet Wen Shichu by chance at the place where Wen Shichu often went. This annoyed Wen Shichu so much that he simply used some tricks to make him fall away one night. After soaking in the lotus pond for a long time, I caught a cold and went to bed to recuperate. I could no longer pester Wen Shichu, so Wen Shichu finally felt quiet in his ears.
Since Shi Li had taken a liking to Wen Shichu, he naturally couldn't wait peacefully for her to leave the Wuyang Hou Mansion in a month. Therefore, every time Wen Shichu left the house to go shopping, he would be the first to do so. Just pop up to make your presence felt.
Wen Shichu didn't dislike him at all, so she asked him to disguise himself and pretend to be her servant to accompany her shopping. After all, Shi Ru had a great reputation in the capital. If someone recognized him, then Wen Shichu would Forget about peace and quiet.
Shi Ru's eyes are the hardest to disguise. After all, they are a unique blue color. He is the only one in the capital with eyes like this. His personal characteristics are too prominent. However, this is nothing to Wen Shichu. She directly draws from her own eyes. Just find a pair of modern colored contact lenses in the space to ensure that his eye color changes perfectly.
Shi Ru curiously looked at the color of his eyes in the small mirror and asked Wen Shichu: "What kind of treasure is this? The color of my eyes turned black after wearing it."
Wen Shichu deceived: "I got it from a foreign language businessman. It is very rare and precious. I got a pair with great difficulty. Please cherish it and use it."
Shi Li believed it immediately and nodded repeatedly: "Of course I must cherish this gift that my wife gave me for the first time."
"Don't call me wife!" Wen Shichu said, rubbing his head, "I'm completely innocent with you now, so don't yell."
"Anyway, you will be my wife sooner or later. What does it matter if you call me early or later?" Shi Ru looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. Fortunately, he also had a noble face. It was really a waste.
He could always make Wen Shichu want to punch him. Wen Shichu glared at him and said, "Shut up. You are my servant now. Just follow me obediently. Don't speak with that mouth!"
Shi Zhu suddenly looked aggrieved and looked at Wen Shichu helplessly. Wen Shichu was so hard-hearted that he ignored his accusing eyes and walked straight forward. Shi Zhu had no choice but to follow step by step.
When Wen Shichu came to Chunyu Tower, Chunyu Tower was not a brothel, but a very serious restaurant with rich dishes and excellent taste. It was one of the best restaurants in the capital.
Wen Shichu took Shi Ru to the private room on the second floor, ordered a few dishes, and then asked Shi Ru to sit down.
Shi Yan immediately changed from a serious and upright guard to a runaway husky. He looked at Wen Shichu longingly, his tall body lying on the table, like a big dog waiting for its owner to stroke its head.
"Don't look at me like that." Wen Shichu said, "You stay outside the gate of Wuyang Marquis' Mansion all day long. Don't you have anything else to do? Are you not a general?"
"My old illness has relapsed now and I am recuperating. I have a lot of time." Shi Ru said confidently.
"Relapse of old disease?" After hearing this, Shi Chu looked at Shi Ru's whole body. He was alive and kicking, and she didn't know how healthy he was. But she didn't see where this man's old disease had recurred.
Shi Ru understood the look in her eyes, coughed slightly, and said, "I have this old disease if I say it exists, and if I say it doesn't, it disappears. Now I am in a state of having it."
Wen Shichu nodded and understood. Wasn't it because the emperor was afraid of his superiority, so he simply found a reason to retreat temporarily so that the emperor could rest assured?
Since ancient times, few military generals have died well. Shi Ru was sober and rational enough to retreat wisely at his peak. It was precisely because he delegated power so wisely that the emperor gave him such a great honor. Not only was he granted the title of He was the general of Zhenguo, and he was given a separate general's mansion. This actually helped him separate from the Shi family, which meant that those in the Shi family could not use their bloodline to coerce him.
Of course, Shi Ru would not be coerced by them at all. After he became famous, he broke into the Shi family as soon as possible and killed the slaves who had bullied him. His other brothers and sisters were also beaten and their hands were severed. Since then, his reputation as a ruthless and ruthless person has spread, but those who have bullied him in the Shi family are so frightened that their feet will tremble even when they see him, especially those who have had their hands and feet broken by him. brothers and sisters.
