This marriage will be very difficult

se, she knew what she would face if she went to the village head's house now. Wasn't this just a deliberate visit to see the commotion and take the opportunity to slap them in the faceSince the villa...Chapter 1160: This marriage will be difficult.

The carriage was silent, Fang Jinshu and Zong Yu each with their own thoughts.

Even though she appeared calm on the surface, killing Hellie was not as easy for her.

In fact, everything Zong Yu could think of, Fang Jinxiu had already thought of beforehand. Hellrie's special status meant that his death would inevitably spark a conflict between the two countries.

If there's a war, it's these innocent civilians who suffer.

Fang Jinshu also didn't want to commit a sin, so she chose a very difficult path. She wanted to overthrow the Xi Xia dynasty and assist A Sheng in becoming the King of Xi Xia.

As for whether Ah Sheng will become the next ambitious emperor who wants to swallow Da Xi, she can't guarantee it at all right now.

But at least, that was the only thing she could do for now.

It's better than sitting idly by while the world descends into chaos, allowing your own selfish desires to bring destruction upon the people of both nations.

"Master, mistress, we're home."

Hibiscus opened the carriage curtains and was a little surprised to see the two people's stunned expressions.

When the Lord and Lady were together, they rarely had such a quiet and strange expression, as if each had something on their mind.

Zong Yu took Fang Jinxiu's hand. "Let's go."

Having stepped out of the carriage, Fang Jinshi had already walked up the stairs. Zong Yu, however, stopped in his tracks. Fang Jinshi noticed he hadn't followed and turned to look back at him.

"What's wrong"

Zongyu said, "I still have some official business to attend to here in camp. You should go back first."

Fāng Jǐnxù frowned, turned around and walked back.

"What time is it You haven't eaten dinner yet, why don't you come in and have a meal before leaving"

"This trade fair is nearing its end, your city guard should not have that many urgent affairs to deal with, right"

Zong Yu has always been bad at lying, especially in front of his wife.

And he had only recently promised Jinxiu that he would never hide anything from her again.

He wanted to return to the hunting ground to clean up. At the time, he had gone back to camp to make sure Jinxiu was safe. Although he had taken care of the footprints on the mountain, there were still many details that needed attention.

If someone from the Xi Xia mission had been there, perhaps they could have found some clues.

He cannot allow Jinxiu to be in any danger, not even a little bit.

But Jinxiu wouldn't let him leave, and Zongyu didn't want to speak lies, so he could only nod and follow him into the mansion.

After dinner, he was about to leave, but Jinshu fell asleep on the table.

Mu Shi looked at it and couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

"Such a delicate young lady, why would you take her to a hunting competition Look at how tired she is."

"I heard that many official wives didn't go. The Emperor didn't say anything either, yet you insist on bringing Jinxiu."

Mu reproached Zongyu, and Zongyu obediently stood there listening to the scolding.

Ke Mu spoke for a long time, but her son didn't utter a single word of rebuttal. He wore a sullen expression, and you couldn't tell from his demeanor whether he had listened at all.

Finally, the Mus stopped and sighed.

“Never mind, I won't say anything more. You insensitive blockhead, no matter how much I say, you wouldn't react.”

Then, Zhang Zongyu spoke.

"Mother, I heard everything you said."

"It won't happen again."

"Listen carefully, and take Jinxiu back to the house to rest. You've both had a tiring day."

She heard from Mulan that Ayou had the most game today. Hunting takes a lot of strength, and it's not easy going through the mountains.

Zong Yu nodded and bent down to pick up Fang Jinxiu.

The two had a noticeable difference in physique, but Fang Jinshu felt perfectly comfortable nestled in Zong Yu's broad embrace. Zong Yu lifted Fang Jinshu with the grace of handling a feather, his movements gentle and seemingly effortless.

"Mother, you should rest early too. We'll go back first."

Mu shook her head. Her daughter-in-law hadn't been this tired in a long time, falling asleep while eating.

I wonder what Ayu has been up to lately. Since their family came to the capital, the kids have been busy almost every day and we hardly see them.

Qiuju supported Mu Shi.

"Grandma, don't worry, Madam is usually very healthy. Today she's probably just tired, she'll be fine after a nap."

Mu Shi now gets along very well with Qiu Ju. In this house, Qiu Ju is the only one who can talk to her now.

"Hey, I know Jinxiu is fine."

She is a doctor herself, she definitely wouldn't let anything happen to herself, and besides, Ah Yu is by her side.

Autumn Chrysanthemum didn't understand, "Then why are you sighing"

"Since we've come to the capital, the children have all been busy with their own affairs," Mu said as she walked.

"If it weren't for Jinxiu keeping Yulian confined to her room, I wouldn't even have seen this girl."

"Back in the village, I could still cook for them and look after the children."

"Now things are different. The house gets bigger and bigger, but everyone is busier than ever, and they don't need me old woman anymore."

Autumn Chrysanthemum understood the loneliness of the old mistress. She always tried her best to make the old mistress happy, accompanying her in planting flowers and grass, taking care of the Hou Mansion's garden, embroidering, and so on.

Even though the Ke Household is large, these matters will eventually be finished. Besides, there are more servants in the household now than before. The Marquis and his wife have both instructed that Old Madam not be overworked.

They didn't dare to let Mu Shi handle everything on her own, so someone secretly took care of the flowers and plants later. When the old madam saw that the flowers and plants were growing well, she gradually stopped paying attention.

They made a large quantity of embroidery, and the old madam also thought about selling it.

But Miss Yulian said that their family was not short of money now, and the Marquis's status was different from before. If the people in the capital knew that the old lady of the Hou Mansion took her embroidery to sell, they didn't know what kind of rumors would spread.

Perhaps the Marquis will even be charged with a serious crime of unfilial piety.

Mu could only dismiss another thought.

Now, besides eating, drinking, using the toilet, and wandering around the various courtyards, she was truly lonely and bored every day.

Autumn Chrysanthemum couldn't bear to see the old lady so unhappy. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration and thought of a plan that could cheer the old lady up again.

"By the way, madam, the Marquis and his wife haven't given you anything to worry about. You can worry about other people."

"The relationship between Jin Yu and General Xiao Zhao is still unclear. General Xiao Zhao used to frequently visit the manor, but recently he hasn't been seen around with the Marquis."

"This little Jin Yu has been down in the dumps for days. She can't eat, and she can't sleep."

Although she never said it out loud, we could all see that she was waiting for General Xiao Zhao to propose.

If it were someone else, the maid would certainly not dare to ask her mistress to arrange a marriage for her.

But Mu and the girls in the household have lived together for so many years, their relationship is unlike that of a normal family's master and servants. As long as Jin Yu doesn't do anything harmful to the Hou Mansion, Mu shows them a great deal of leniency.

"That's right, you mention that and I remember now too, it's been a while since I've seen that girl Jin Yu."

"Anyway, Jinxiu is very busy recently and probably doesn't have time to worry about the girls at home. Jin Yu isn't young anymore either. If she doesn't get married soon, she'll really be an old maid."

"Indeed, Madam. Jin Yu has lost quite a bit of weight recently."

She and General Xiao Zhao, actually, many people are not optimistic about them.

Autumn Chrysanthemum didn't mean anything by this; she also hoped that Gold Jade could be with her true love and have a happy ending. But General Zhao's family background was undeniable, while she was just a maidservant.

They had also discussed it privately, suspecting that General Xiao Zhao hadn't dared to tell his family about this marriage. He himself knew deep down how inappropriate and difficult this match would be.ted the person inside to sit down, while Xiaoyue skillfully brought tea and water.When the village head saw that there were tea leaves in the bowl, he was surprised, "Tea leaves Where did you get such...
