Reborn in the Three Kingdoms: Da Qiao Doesn't Want to Be a Widow Anymore

Chapter 331 Gentle Township

After a while, Zhou Yu's anger gradually subsided, and he realized that Qiao Wei felt wronged on Qiao Rong's behalf.

“Since the marriage certificate has not been registered, I will personally deliver it to the register. Since Rong’er has not yet paid her respects at the ancestral hall, I will take her to pay her respects at the ancestral hall and have her be included in the family genealogy along with Xun’er.” Zhou Yu felt that this should be the best solution.

While he was stationed in Wancheng, he was indeed overwhelmed with many matters, and sending Qiao Rong back to Shuxian to be cared for by the Gu family was, in retrospect, a mistake.

However, Madam Gu was once virtuous, but perhaps due to her illness, she has become increasingly narrow-minded. As his legal wife, she has failed to secure the household for him and has even caused many troubles due to jealousy and rivalry.

But now that Lady Gu is gone, Zhou Yu doesn't want to discuss right and wrong behind people's backs.

“It’s never because of the matter itself, it’s because you slighted her.” Qiao Wei recalled the day Qiao Rong returned from Wancheng and stood in front of her, trying to hold back her tears, and her eyes gradually reddened as well.

"She's always crying because of you. Have you ever seen her cry?"

Like a small, wounded animal whimpering and sobbing, it could only cower in a corner, secretly licking its wounds.

Zhou Yu felt as if his heart had been gripped tightly by a large hand, and the sharp pain caused him to lose his composure for a moment.

He had seen it.

That night, she suddenly burst into his tent and looked at Han Ji in his arms. Her expectant eyes instantly went out like a lamp, losing all light.

Instead, there was astonishment and self-deprecation.

In the end, she said nothing, silently lowered the curtain, turned and left, until he put on his outer robe and chased after her.

The light was dim, but he still saw the glimmer in her eyes.

Later, he wanted to say something to comfort her, but he vaguely felt that he hadn't done anything wrong and didn't know what there was to explain.

As he expected, Qiao Rong did not demand an explanation from him, and she had not had any conflicts with Han Ji in daily life. He thought she must have accepted these things.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but he could also vaguely sense that Qiao Rong was very bothered by Han Ji, even though Han Ji was very sensible and respectful in everything she did, and treated Qiao Rong as her mistress.

But he could also sense that he and Qiao Rong were not as close as before.

Until Han Ji was diagnosed with pregnancy.

He specifically mentioned during his meal with Qiao Rong that he wanted to send Han Ji back to Shuxian to rest and prepare for childbirth.

After seeing Han Ji off, Qiao Rong was the only one left by his side in Wancheng.

Qiao Rong should be happy and won't hold a grudge against him anymore because of Han Ji.

Unexpectedly, Han Ji knelt down in front of him and Qiao Rong with a "thump," pleading softly not to send her away.

Zhou Yu's face immediately turned cold, and he warned her not to overstep her bounds.

Before Zhou Yu could react, Qiao Rong suddenly spoke up, saying that Han Ji was newly pregnant and was naturally a little flustered, and that he could accompany her back to Shu County.

Looking at Qiao Rong's calm face, Zhou Yu felt a sense of panic for the first time. For some reason, he felt that Qiao Rong seemed to be getting further and further away from him.

But he didn't have time to think much, because a report came from the army that Cao Renfang had made some unusual moves. Before he had even finished his meal, he ordered the tent to be raised and summoned the important generals of the army to discuss matters.

Unbeknownst to him, after he left, Qiao Rong helped Han Ji up from the ground and listened to her recount her past with Zhou Yu for a long time. Han Ji cried bitterly not only because of her fear of returning to Shu County, but also because she was heartbroken by Zhou Yu's ruthlessness.

She was sold into the military concubine camp by her parents. Just as she was being stared at by a group of lustful men, and some of them couldn't help but touch her inappropriately while she was barely clothed, Zhou Yu frowned, gave her his robe, and personally draped it over her.

He was so handsome, and his movements were so gentle and considerate, like a celestial being. He was so much better than those smelly, disheveled men who couldn't even hide their desires.

It's so easy to fall for someone like that.

She never dreamed that she, with her ordinary appearance, would be sent to this man who was like a god. He even took her as a concubine, making her the only woman who could serve him closely.

With her serving him, Zhou Yu indeed did not take any other women into his tent. Compared to the sisters who entered the army's concubine camp with him, she was incredibly fortunate.

Every woman in the army said the same thing.

Even after Qiao Rong returned, Zhou Yu no longer allowed her to serve him closely. Han Ji knew that she was inferior to Qiao Rong in both appearance and character, so she dared not harbor any resentment.

All he could think about was that as long as he could still serve by the side of the Central Protector General, that would be enough.

She cried as she spoke to Qiao Wei, begging Qiao Rong not to send her away, promising that she would behave herself and not argue with Qiao Rong.

After listening, Qiao Rong did not blame Han Ji for anything, because back then, she was also moved by the handkerchief that Zhou Yu handed her when she was in distress, and she was filled with courage like a moth drawn to a flame.

Han Ji noticed the sorrow hidden in Qiao Rong's expression, placed her hand on her abdomen, and said calmly, "Back then, I was also pregnant when I was sent back to Shuxian to give birth."

Qiao Rong had pleaded with Zhou Yu to let him stay, but in the end he was sent away.

Yesterday's Qiao Rong, today's Han Ji, and perhaps many women in the future will all be the same.

Qiao Rong has already understood this principle, and has also suffered a lot because of it.

“The Central Protector will not change his mind. If you are truly so fond of him, it is not too late to come back after you give birth.”

Han Ji knew that she was of low status and her voice carried little weight. Even Qiao Rong had been sent away, let alone herself. Her face gradually turned ashen. "I'm afraid that by the time I give birth, the Commander-in-Chief will already have a new concubine by his side, and no one will even remember my name."

Qiao Rong didn't say anything more, but simply accompanied Han Ji through the meal and told her to go back and rest.

It was more than ten days later when she saw Zhou Yu again. He held Qiao Rong in his arms and refused to let go. The pleasures they shared seemed to be a way of melting the woman into his very bones.

After their pleasure, Qiao Rong bathed him and still brought up the idea of ​​sending Han Ji back to Shu County.

Zhou Yu didn't understand why Qiao Rong insisted on coming to Wancheng, such a dangerous front line, when he had initially disagreed with her coming.

He has only been here for a little over a month, and he wants to keep her by his side, but she insists on leaving.

"Han Ji is carrying the general's child, so she is naturally very precious."

Besides, Xun'er is still with my elder sister, and I miss her terribly.

Zhou Yu sighed. Qiao Rong brought up Zhou Xun, so naturally he had no choice but to release the person.

Having tasted the sweetness, Zhou Yu willingly succumbed to Qiao Rong's gentle embrace, becoming even more vigorous in bed.
