C76

Zhang Jing thought back to the time in the bamboo forest, where Shui Qingyan had said the same thing.

Zhang Jing's face darkened and his tone became slightly colder as well, "Fourth Sister, I'm your big sister's husband."

"Yeah, I was the one who facilitated your marriage." Shui Qingyan looked at Zhang Jing with a bland smile.

Zhang Jing's face paled.

"What happened that year is already in the past. Since big sister's husband has already relied on my big sister to get someone from the capital, if he still doesn't understand who the big sister's husband is, then he doesn't need to understand." Shui Qingyan slowly said.

Zhang Jing abruptly slammed the table and stood up, "You don't need to remind me again and again that I, Zhang Jing, relied on women to achieve my current status!"

"Relying on a woman isn't scary. What's scary is someone who doesn't know how to progress after she ascends to the position of a woman." Shui Qingyan slowly said.

"If you don't help me with this favor, I will drag you down with me!" "Humph!" Zhang Jing flung his sleeves and walked out.

"Look at how confident Big Brother-in-law is. Could it be that Big Brother-in-law has other tricks up his sleeves?" Shui Qingyan laughed.

Zhang Jing stopped and said, "The marriage between your big sister and I is permitted by the emperor. Without the emperor's approval, even if I sign the letter of departure, that letter of departure would still be ineffective."

"Eldest Brother's husband thinks that my father doesn't have the ability to make the Emperor agree?" Shui Qingyan laughed.

Zhang Jing pursed his lips, then turned and looked at Shui Qingyan: "The emperor bestowed the marriage on you, if you and Li, the only way for your older sister to leave the family is for her to die."

Shui Qingyan slowly raised the corner of her lips: "You're right, if big sister's husband really loves my big sister, I might as well just write a divorce letter."

"Hmph." Zhang Jing scoffed, "When I write the letter, I disobey the emperor's orders. I disobey the emperor's orders, how can I still have my life!"

Shui Qingyan smiled and looked at Zhang Jing: "Big sister's husband doesn't want to die, my father doesn't want to be shamed, so when father sent Father here, it was to save me, not to forget, but to protect big sister's life."

Zhang Jing's heart slowly sank.

"If elder sister's husband doesn't do anything, the only consequence will be him bringing your beloved concubine back to the village to farm." Shui Qingyan laughed, "That's not right, big sister's husband's family doesn't seem to have any land. At that time, Big sister's husband will have no choice but to bring your beloved Aunt Wang to kneel at the city's gate to beg for money."

Zhang Jing suddenly looked at Shui Qingyan. Shui Qingyan had really changed!

Shui Qingyan stood up, walked in front of Zhang Jing, and smiled as she raised her head to look at Zhang Jing. "Does Brother-in-law really think that my big sister purposefully lost her child?"

"Don't tell me I made the child unable to obtain it?" Zhang Jing's tone was a lot friendlier, but his expression was not very good as he turned his head.

Pa!! Shui Qingyan flung out a slap.

"Why did you hit me!" Zhang Jing roared at Shui Qingyan.

Shui Qingyan sneered: "Asking why I beat you up, how foolish." With that, she flung her sleeves and turned around. "It's better if Big Brother-in-law and Li Shu take Big Brother-in-law's concubine home to farm."

Zhang Jing said after a long while: "Whatever Fourth Sister wants to say, just say."

Shui Qingyan laughed and turned around: "Brother-in-law means that you are willing to listen to what I have to say."

"Please advise me, Fourth Sister." Although Zhang Jing's expression was not good, his tone was much friendlier.

Shui Qingyan: "This time, when big sister went back to Shui’s Marion, one reason was because there was a post from Shui’s Marion inviting big sister back home to stay for a few days, and two reason was because big sister's husband had to take in the Aunt Wang at all costs after big sister got pregnant. I wonder, if big sister's husband and big sister changed their identities, how big sister's husband would be feeling."

Zhang Jing pursed his lips, his expression dark: "Your big sister won't care, she's just feeling that I've embarrassed her. Also, how can men be the same as women."

"So Big Sis's husband listened to the words of others and thought that Big Sis didn't love Big Sis at all, so she wouldn't even give birth to her own child. Then, did she truly believe that Big Sis was going to borrow the opportunity of going to the Guoyuan Temple to personally kill the flesh in Big Sis' stomach?" Shui Qingyan sneered.

Zhang Jing shot a bland glance at Shui Qingyan, "You should know the reason why your older sister was wronged enough to marry a poor scholar like me."

Shui Qingyan was still smiling, "Brother-in-law, the most unstable point of a woman's pregnancy is when she was two months old. Big sister had safely carried the child for three months.

Zhang Jing said with a pale face, "It's only been three months, the doctor said, it won't hurt your big sister's life."

A trace of coldness flashed through Shui Qingyan's eyes, "Brother-in-law, have you ever wondered why Big Sis would cause a ruckus with you over the matter of you wanting to take in a concubine? How could Big Sis agree to give Wang Xueqing a slap after you forced her to a corner with your life?"

Zhang Jing turned his face to the side and said, "I have no right to stop her from marrying off. She has not been pregnant for three years, so I should have taken her as my concubine long ago."

Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "So now that you've left her alone in Shui’s Marion, enduring the mockery of a servant in the Shui’s Marion, you think big sister deserves this?"

"Even if I pick her up, she won't come back." Zhang Jing looked away. But he did not want Shui Qingyan to look back at him. Shui Qingyan had no pupils in his eyes, but he did not want to look back at him.

Shui Qingyan also removed her gaze from Zhang Jing's face and walked to the side of the table to sit down: "My big sister was originally a quasi-Second Princess, yet she married you in the end.

Zhang Jing's face darkened.

"After being mocked by others for so many years, elder sister has never complained to elder sister's husband." Shui Qingyan's tone was calm.

Zhang Jing pursed his lips.

Shui Qingyan: "Eldest sister Gao Leng, now that you have returned to your parents' home in a mere mansion, not only is the child gone, Big brother-in-law did not go ahead to comfort him, instead he has never seen him before. How is big sister going to get a foothold in Shui’s Marion in the future?"

A look of guilt flashed across Zhang Jing's face.

Shui Qingyan: "By doing this, how will you make my big sister feel after she returns to the Zhang Mansion? If you don't like my big sister, you can ignore her, but you shouldn't throw stones at her while she's down, making her lose face. "

"Hmph." Zhang Jing scoffed coldly, looked at Shui Qingyan, and said, "Could it be that you want to say that your big sister has feelings for me?!"

"In this world, besides love, there are many other emotions." Shui Qingyan smiled.

"Hmph." Zhang Jing sneered.

"Do you know that right now, everyone in Shui’s Marion is ridiculing my big sister for being a phoenix that has fallen into a soup, compared to a chicken!?" Shui Qingyan's every word was like a gem.

Zhang Jing's face paled.

Shui Qingyan: "Perhaps it's just as you said, big sister has never loved you, but that doesn't mean big sister doesn't have any other feelings for you. Perhaps in her heart, you're a neighbor, can be a friend, can be a brother."

Zhang Jing turned his face to the side: "I already said that although you two sisters are blood sisters, your feelings are not good. But she actually told you even about me threatening you with my death.

"You don't need to understand my relationship with my big sister." Shui Qingyan laughed plainly.

"Although my big sister doesn't think much of the secular world, that doesn't mean she doesn't understand it." Shui Qingyan slowly said.

Zhang Jing opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Shui Qingyan looked at Zhang Jing. "Because Big Sis has already been treated as a laughing point after a meal for five years, and now she's still going to be mocked by people again after taking big Sis' concubine for a meal. Big Sis is is so arrogant, and she lost three children so what do you think Big Sis will do?"

Zhang Jing's body froze as he stared at Shui Qingyan: "What did you say, three children!"

"Yes, triplets." Shui Qingyan smiled plainly, as if she wasn't talking about her big sister.

Zhang Jing was stunned.

"Big Sis's abortion was bad for her health, and she was infertile for life. She almost died." Shui Qingyan slowly said, "Just as you were coaxing the Aunt Wang in the palace, Big Sis almost died. Her fever last night was so high that she didn't wake up today."

Zhang Jing suddenly opened his eyes wide.

"So, Brother-in-law, even if you don't have the status of a husband, with your identity as an objective person, please change seats and consider from the perspective of a big sister. Please also cherish this opportunity. I will think of a way to help you, and hope that you won't be chased out of the capital by the Emperor after the Spring Festival. " In the end, Shui Qingyan revealed her purpose for coming here.

After Shui Qingyan finished speaking, she suddenly turned and walked out.

After Zhang Jing left the Dong Li Yard, he went straight to the Shui’s Marion.

After Peach Blossom saw Zhang Jing leave the house, he immediately came over to ask.

Dong Li Yard.

Qing Mei was looking around the yard with her fake unibrow, looking like she was waiting for Zhang Jing to come back.

"Hey, girl!" Peach Blossom was blocked by the two gatekeepers, so she could only call Qing Mei from afar.

When Qing Mei saw that Peach Blossom had arrived, she immediately ran over. "Miss Peach Blossom, is there anything you need?"

"The concubine is sick, I'll have to trouble the young lady to inform the old master." Peach Red looked pleadingly at Qing Mei.

Qing Mei shook her head. "Master is not here."

"Not here?" Peach Red pretends not to believe me.

"Master went to the Shui’s Marion." Qing Mei answered honestly.

"He went to the Shui’s Marion?" Peach Blossom did not expect Qing Mei's words to be so good.

Qing Mei nodded.

Peach Blossom sighed, "Thank you miss, I'll wait for you at the door."

"Miss Peach Blossom, it's better if you don't go. The lord promised the lady that if you don't succeed this time, you won't come. I'm afraid the lord won't be able to come back tonight." Qing Mei looked at Peach Blossom obediently.

"Agree to the young lady's request?" Peach Blossom asked in confusion.

"Yes." Qing Mei nodded honestly, "Miss doesn't want to hide in the Dong Li Yard. Master has already promised Miss."

Peach Blossom immediately understood. Most likely, this Dong Li Yard's master wanted to get his name straight, so she immediately said goodbye to Qingmei. "Thank you miss. Since it's like this, I'll go back and reply to my aunt."

"Take care, Miss Peach Blossom." Qing Mei bowed to Peach Blossom and then left.

After Peach Red left Dong Li Yard, she immediately returned to the Peony Courtyard.
