Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 415: He is determined

Lu Rui was looking forward to it when he had someone deliver the letter and the deerskin coat to Gu Qingyuan.

He wondered if she would think of him the moment she saw the clothes and the letter.

He hadn't seen her for three years and now he couldn't wait to see her.

However, Lu Rui knew in his heart that he now had a heavy responsibility and could not just run to her without caring about anything.

He could only wait.

After writing the letter, Gu Qingyuan placed it on the table to dry.

She picked up the deerskin coat again and hung it on the rack in the house.

Then she stood up and walked out.

Gu Qingyuan came to the place where Lu Rui used to live.

Mangzhong, who had been following Lu Rui to take care of him, saw Gu Qingyuan coming and stood up to greet him, "Young Master, why are you here?"

Ever since the Green Servant restored his identity and returned with the people from the Holy Land, this place has been empty.

Gu Qingyuan glanced at him and said, "I came over to take a look. You don't have to follow me."

Mangzhong then stepped back and continued to busy himself with his own affairs.

Gu Qingyuan walked into the house and opened the window to let in some fresh air. She sat in the house and recalled the time when Lu Rui was still at home.

But now, the room is empty and seems a bit deserted.

When Lu Rui left, he only took a few pieces of clothing with him. The furnishings in his room were the same as before he left, and the servants didn't even touch them.

However, they will clean the room regularly and wipe the tables, chairs and vases.

After sitting for a while, Gu Qingyuan came outside and suddenly saw the blocked hole.

Before, Lu Rui's adoptive parents came in through that hole to ask him for money.

However, those two people are nowhere to be found now.

She lowered her eyes and walked out again.

......

"Mr. Ji, I heard that Mr. Ji..."

Xiaohan walked in from outside and when he reached Ji Mingzhao, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Ji Mingzhao was stunned for a moment, then asked Xiaohan uncertainly, "Are you saying my second brother is dead?"

Xiao Han nodded and said, "It's absolutely true. A few days ago, when I went out of the house to buy fish for Ling Shijun, I saw a coffin being carried out from the Wang family. It is said that the deceased was the Second Young Master Ji."

After saying this, he smiled with a hint of schadenfreude.

You know, their concubine Ji was bullied a lot in the Ji family before she got married.

The second son of the Ji family, Ji Yunzheng, is the culprit.

Kneeling and washing clothes as punishment in winter are the most common things.

The most outrageous thing was that he held Ji Mingzhao's head in winter and pushed him into the dirty water used for washing clothes.

When Ji Mingzhao recalled his past experiences in the Ji family, he felt as if he were in another lifetime.

But fortunately, he now has a wife and An An.

Xiaohan continued to speak: "It is said that Master Ji was caught having an affair with another woman and was beaten to death."

Xiaohan still remembers that during An An's full moon banquet, the Second Young Master Ji even tried to seduce their young master.

In his opinion, it was normal for Ji Yunzheng to be beaten by the Wang family after returning.

Ji Mingzhao frowned slightly and scolded: "Enough, the dead are the greatest."

Xiaohan then stopped chattering and looked at Ji Mingzhao with confusion in his eyes.

It was obvious that Ji Cefu had been bullied like that before. If he were Ji Cefu, he would be lucky not to make a fuss when he knew that the person who bullied him in the past was dead.

He thought Ji Mingzhao would say something like, "They are my relatives after all."

But Ji Mingzhao glanced outside and said, "Walls have ears. Be careful if this gets out and has a bad impact."

Xiaohan quickly covered his mouth with an expression that showed he understood.

Ji Mingzhao did not hate Ji Yunzheng.

His background was not something he could decide, and besides, it was clearly his mother who forced his father to have him.

But in the eyes of others, his father was just a lowly servant who seduced the head of the family, and as a result, he had to please others and be bullied in the Ji family.

Ji Yunzheng and other people in the Ji family would say nasty things in his ears, beat and scold him, and force him to work all the time.

But fortunately, this kind of life is over.

Ji Mingzhao breathed a long sigh of relief.

Apart from having the surname Ji, he actually has no other relationship with the Ji family.

After all, his father had passed away long ago, beaten to death by his mother's husband.

But his mother didn't recognize him, and there was no place for him in the Ji family.

Therefore, since he got married, even after he had An An, he never set foot in the Ji family again.

However, whenever he thought of his biological father being beaten to death, he felt a dull pain in his heart.

He was still young at that time and could do nothing. He could only watch helplessly as the man was beaten until the corner of his mouth bled, yet he still said something like "I didn't seduce the master of the family..."

He could hardly walk steadily. After his father died, he went over to lie on his father's body, trembling, and was pulled away.

He drank sewage, ate mud, and even thought about leaving this world.

But he was lucky and survived.

Ji Mingzhao thought that as long as he could make everyone not hate him, he should be able to live well and not be bullied.

Especially the wife's husband, who is of noble birth and is favored by his wife.

If he doesn't know his own limitations, doesn't recognize his own status and tries to win favor, he will probably end up like his father.

Thinking of this, Ji Mingzhao felt a little cold.

No, he didn't want to be beaten to death. He had his own children now, and he didn't want An An to grow up like him.

He wanted An An to grow up healthy and happy, and then find a good family for him to marry into.

Seeing that he was lost in thought, Xiao Han couldn't help but call him, "Mr. Ji, Mr. Ji."

Ji Mingzhao finally came back to his senses and smiled at him, "I'm fine, I just remembered some things from the past."

But Xiaohan still remembered what Ji Cefu had been thinking about just now, and his face looked very painful.

He changed the subject and said, "By the way, Mrs. Ji, do you want to go see the eldest young master?"

"it is good."

Ji Mingzhao came to An An's room.

When An An saw him coming, she quickly jumped off the bed and said, "Dad, I'm not being lazy today, it's just that I've run out of colored thread."

Ji Mingzhao walked over and hugged him.

An An didn't understand what was going on, he just felt that his father was holding him a little tight.

Ji Mingzhao looked down at An An, who was a little afraid that he would be angry, and said in a gentle tone: "It's okay, just ask someone to buy more thread when it runs out."

He looked at the things An An had sewn on the bed during this period and saw obvious progress.

Ji Mingzhao raised his hand and touched his head.

"Nice sewing."

An An raised her face somewhat proudly and said, "That's because I have the best dad in the world. You taught me how to sew step by step."

Ji Mingzhao held up his hand and saw the needle hole on it.

An An retracted her hand and said, "Oh, sometimes I don't pay attention and I prick myself."

"Then you should be more careful next time."
