In the Champion Marquis residence, Duke Yu Dunsu and his wife, Guo Shuxian, were sitting in Yu Xingzhis courtyard waiting anxiously.
Madam Guo rubbed her hands and couldnt sit still. If it werent that shed be breaking the rules, she even wanted to wait by the duke residences front door.
Yu Dunsu said, Madam, five had endured too many hardships. Yonger had sent a letter earlier, but he didnt explain clearly, only saying that fives wife had gotten into an accident as well. When five gets back, you should let him have his way and dont restrict him anymore.
Madam Guo twisted her handkerchief and said, I know. When he cos back, I wont control him anymore. As long as hes happy, he can be with any lady he wants. Xiaoxiao is also a pitiful child. They are not fated, it seems like. Im just scared that with Xingzhis personality, hed be too stubborn to be with anyone else. Sigh!
A travel-worn horse carriage stopped by the duke residences door.
Yu Dunsu and Madam Guo couldnt help but walk out to welco him.
However, they saw a woman with a clear and fresh appearance walking down first after pulling the curtains to the side. She jumped down and turned around to raise her pair of fair and delicate hands, helping Yu Xingzhi out of the horse carriage.
Yu Xingzhi looked exhausted and weak, but he didnt wear a sorrowful expression surprisingly. Instead, he shot everyone a warm smile.
He seed to have lost his balance, slightly stumbling a bit.
That woman hurriedly supported him and carried him under everyones shocked gazes. She skillfully carried him into his bedroom.
On the way, Yu Xingzhi tried to reject her offer, though not sincerely, Xiaoxiao, put down.
Madam Guo glanced at this in shock. Thisshe?
Yu Xingyong followed along, coughed and exclaid, This is a long story. Let this child enter the room and report in detail.
In the noble wons circle within the capital, there was a new popular discussion of the topic.
The Champion Marquis common wife misses her husband too much as he was on expeditions and actually fell ill.
The Champion Marquis had won the battle and returned, becoming the newly popular influential figure in the court. He also cherished and took good care of her, finding all sorts of famous physicians to diagnose and treat his madam.
However, the madams sickness didnt get any better. In the end, she died and went to heaven.
There are so unlucky people and cant enjoy the riches and honor. Speaking of this, she is quite pitiful. At a small private banquet, the second mistress of Scholar Zuo, Wang Bihua, said this as though taking pleasure in Zhou Xiaoxiaos misfortune.
With her status, she was fortunate enough to marry the duke in a proper and legal manner, enjoying the riches and gold for a while.
I heard that Marquis Yu also mourned excessively, causing him to fall ill too. Up until the dukes wife made a decision to search for a common woman whose personality and na was the sa as the late marquis wife that the marquis slowly got better after taking her in as a second wife.
What? The Champion Marquis had remarried just like this? Earlier, my wife wanted to send my third sistersigh.
The Marquis is really a faithful man. However, I wonder which woman got lucky.
What do you an faithful? n are all the sa. They forget their old lover now that they have soone new. Look, the late madam just died and he remarried.
Right now, in the duke residence, Yu Xingzhi and his new wife, Zhou Xiaoxiao, were being lovey-dovey in the room without a care for the gossips.
Zhou Xiaoxiao sat by the edge of the bed holding the White Jade Ointnt which helped to improve blood circulation; she was carefully applying the ointnt to Yu Xingzhis injuries.
She lifted her fair and tender finger, scooping the milky white ointnt and carefully applying it on the lash marks which started to form scabs. She pursed her lips and gently blew on the ointnt.
