Chapter 247 Yunwei: It's all your fault!

In the steamy, clean room, the woman had fair skin, a slender figure, and alluring curves.

Rong Zhen's Adam's apple bobbed, and his long, calloused fingers gently caressed her skin, causing Yun Wei to tremble and her face to flush crimson.

She instinctively pulled her legs together.

Rong Zhen paused, noticing the dampness on his fingertips, and chuckled softly, "No wonder he needed to take a bath."

Yun Wei's face flushed, and she tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Isn't this all your fault?"

"Yes, it's my fault." Rong Zhen unbuttoned his robe and pulled her into his arms.

Thinking of the unfinished business in the study, his eyes seemed to be stained with ink, deep and heavy.

Yunwei was completely naked, and felt the chill creeping up her skin. She couldn't help but press herself against the man's burning chest.

The firm texture of the skin finally made her unable to resist touching it.

Rong Zhen's emotions had already been stirred up, and now he could no longer resist her teasing.

Suddenly, he picked up Yunwei and placed her on a chair next to him, with her back to him and her bare feet on it.

Realizing his intention, Yun Wei's almond-shaped eyes widened, and her face flushed red.

How could Rong Zhen...

Soon, she had no time to think about it anymore.

Her slender, fair fingers gripped the back of the chair tightly.

Her silky black hair cascaded down her back, the ends swaying in graceful arcs.

……

When Yunwei was lifted off the chair, her legs were so weak they were like noodles, and she was completely unable to stand.

Rong Zhen carried her into the bathtub.

Before she lost consciousness, she felt a pang of regret.

If she had known this would happen, she would never have bothered sending this man any "encyclopedia of romance".

This man doesn't need it at all.

Now look what's happened; this man learned those tricks and immediately used them on her.

……

While Rong Zhen and Yun Wei were newly married, Chen Yuniang was suffering greatly and had a very difficult time.

Because of the porridge-giving incident, the Li family lost all face. Not only was she resented by Li Yaoting, but she was also hated by Old Madam Li.

Even her maternal family, the Duke of Chen's mansion, was affected and became a laughing stock.

People on the streets and alleys were talking about her as a joke, and during this time, she could only hide in the mansion and dared not go anywhere.

This has really been keeping her cooped up for a while; if she doesn't go out for a walk soon, she's bound to go crazy.

So he sent his maid Chunxiang outside to scout things out.

"...Are you sure no one is talking about that matter anymore?" Chen Yuniang asked the maid who had returned from gathering information.

“It’s certain.” Chunxiang nodded firmly. “Right now, everyone on the streets is talking about the Regent’s marriage to Princess Rong’an a few days ago.”

That day, the Regent Prince married Princess Rong'an. The wedding was grander than ever before, and she secretly ran out to watch it.

Everyone says that the Princess of Rong'an is very fortunate.

Isn't that a great blessing?
After leaving the Li family, she was blessed with good fortune. Not only was she granted the title of county princess, but she also married the regent and became the regent's wife, enjoying immense prestige.

On the contrary, her own young lady had been plagued by bad luck and all sorts of troubles ever since she entered the Li family. Thinking about it this way, she felt that the Li family's luck was really not good, and that it even suppressed people's luck.

Chen Yuniang was unaware of what the maid was thinking. After hearing what the maid said, she not only did not feel relieved, but also felt jealous.

She naturally knew about what happened on the day Yun got married.

Although she didn't go out, the Regent's wedding was a grand affair, and she could hear the commotion outside even while sitting in the mansion.

What's more, there were also Shen, Yuan, and Liu, the three concubines, who deliberately went to her and talked about how grand the wedding of Lady Yun to the Regent was.

So even if she didn't go out, she still knew.

She felt jealous and resentful.

Why is it that Li Yaoting would rather have her than Yun Shi, yet she's doing better and better after leaving the Li family, and is now even the Regent's Consort?
Chen Yuniang felt extremely resentful.

"Madam... are you still going to Qianjintang?" Chunxiang asked cautiously when she saw that Madam looked unwell.

When this was mentioned, Chen Yuniang immediately came to her senses, only to find that the itching in that spot was unbearable.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I'll go! Although Yun's status is not what it used to be, now that she has opened a pharmacy and learned medicine, how can she not treat patients? Not only will I go, but I will also make Yun treat me personally!"

Upon hearing this, Chunxiang thought to herself: "Yun is the Regent's wife, and she has a grudge against the Madam. How could she possibly treat the Madam?"
But she only dared to mutter it to herself, knowing Chen Yuniang's temper, she dared not say it out loud.

As Chen Yuniang and her maid walked into the front yard, they bumped into Old Madam Li, who was returning from outside.

Having suffered a lot of anger outside, Old Madam Li became even angrier when she saw Chen Yuniang. She stared at her coldly and said, "Instead of staying in the mansion, what are you doing now that will bring shame to the Li family?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuniang clenched her fists in anger.

She's not a prisoner, does she not even have the freedom to go out?
Moreover, she hadn't expected the porridge distribution to turn out like that.

But that wasn't her fault. The fault lay with those ungrateful bastards who came to criticize her.

She suppressed her anger and said, "Mother, what are you saying? If you're going out, you must have something to do. Does that mean you never go out? I see you just came back from outside."

"But would I be as stupid as you and do something that makes me a laughingstock?" Old Madam Li's face darkened.

During this period, she was laughed at wherever she went.

Her old friends, who were usually close to her, would always tease her about Chen Yuniang's porridge-giving, making her lose face and feel ashamed in front of them.

All of this was caused by that idiot Chen Yuniang.

That incident once became a popular joke among the people of Beijing.

The Li family had finally seen some improvement thanks to their son, but unexpectedly, this spendthrift wife ruined their reputation again.

Madam Li now hates Chen Yuniang to the core.

How could she have been so blind to be bewitched by such a thing, which led to the departure of Yun Shi, a good daughter-in-law who was capable of managing the household and bringing prosperity to the family?

During this period, not only her old friends, but also the ladies she usually associated with would say the first thing when they met: "How could you bear to let Yaoting and Yun divorce? I think Yun was destined for great wealth and honor. If she had stayed in your family, she would have been a great help to her husband and children and helped your Li family regain its reputation."

Madam Li's face was so dark at the time that she couldn't say anything, but she also played a significant role in her son's divorce from Yun.

Pulling herself out of her thoughts, Madam Li looked at Chen Yuniang with an even more unfriendly expression, and said sarcastically, "You're trying to imitate others by giving out porridge, but don't you even know if you have the ability? I know you saw that the Yun family's free medical treatment was praised by the people, so you wanted to follow suit."

Little did they know, this was nothing but a clumsy imitation, utterly foolish!

After speaking, Madam Li spat on the ground.

Chen Yuniang was so angry that her face turned ashen, her blood boiled, and she tasted a metallic taste in her throat.

He barely managed to hold it in and not vomit blood in front of Madam Li.

After leaving the Li residence, Chen Yuniang finally couldn't hold back her anger and coughed up blood. She hid in the carriage, wiping away her tears.

What sins did she commit to marry into a family like the Li family?
