The Abandoned Wife of a Military Family: Your disguise has been exposed again.

Chapter 262 Rong Zhen: You want a child? Just beg me.

"Seeking a child?" Rong Zhen looked at her in surprise.

Yunwei nodded, "Yes, my mother took me and Aman to Guanyin Temple, saying that the Bodhisattva there is very efficacious."

Rong Zhen paused, then looked down at her. "If you want a child, just beg me."

"What?" Yunwei exclaimed in surprise, "Please, how do I beg..."

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly realized what she meant, her face flushing red and burning. She asked, embarrassed and annoyed, "What are you talking about?"

Rong Zhen took her hand, pulled her into his arms, and whispered in her ear, "I will do everything I can to give you a child."

Yunwei covered her ears. "Stop talking, I don't want to hear it."

This person is becoming increasingly unserious.

"Let's go." Rong Zhen let go of her and took her hand instead.

"Where to?" Yunwei asked, puzzled.

“Your senior brother came this afternoon and invited us to have dinner at Qingyi Garden,” Rong Zhen explained.

"My senior brother came by?" Yun Wei asked, somewhat surprised. "Why would he suddenly invite us to dinner when it's neither a holiday nor a festival?"

Rong Zhen said, "The Emperor summoned him today."

Yun Wei was startled. "The Emperor summoned my senior brother? What does he want to do?"

Rong Zhen shook his head.

His informants saw Liu Changqing bring Mu Tianji into the palace, but what the emperor said in the imperial study remains unknown.

But the emperor's move was probably an attempt to win over Mu Tianji.

“Go to Qingyi Garden, and you’ll know when you see your senior brother,” Rong Zhen said.

"Ah."

……

Qingyi Garden.

As soon as Yunwei and Rongzhen got off the carriage, they saw Mu Qingcang coming to greet them.

"Master's sister, Master's husband, why are you only arriving now? I thought you weren't coming."

"How could that be? Something came up and I was delayed," Yunwei said.

"It's cold outside, let's come inside and talk." Mu Qingcang gestured for them to come in.

"Mm." Yun Wei nodded, took Rong Zhen's hand, and entered Qingyi Garden.

Mu Qingcang led the two into the front hall.

In the front hall, Mu Tianji was already waiting.

Seeing that the two had finally arrived, he smiled and waved to them, saying, "Come and have some tea, it's freshly brewed."

"Thank you, Senior Brother." Yun Wei released Rong Zhen, took the teacup, took a sip, and then praised, "As expected of tea brewed by Senior Brother himself, it is indeed delicious."

Mu Tianji chuckled, "After getting married, Junior Sister's mouth has become more and more eloquent. The Regent has done a good job of training her."

Rong Zhen also took the teacup, took a sip, and then said, "She wasn't just being eloquent; she was just telling the truth. Mr. Mu, this tea is indeed very well brewed."

Mu Tianji picked up the teapot and laughed, "You two really know how to coax people. Alright, since you think my tea is delicious, then have a couple more cups."

"The tea is delicious, but I'll be drinking the soup my sister-in-law made later, so I need to empty my stomach a bit," Yunwei said, waving her hand.

Mu Tianji chuckled, "It seems my tea-making skills can't compare to your sister-in-law's soup-making skills. Alright, alright, go drink your sister-in-law's soup." Yun Wei put down her cup and said to Rong Zhen, "Then I'll go find my sister-in-law and the others. You keep my brother company."

"Mm." Rong Zhen nodded.

"Go now, hurry up and go." Mu Tianji waved him away.

After Yun Wei left, Mu Tianji looked at Rong Zhen and asked, "Would the Regent like to play a game of chess?"

Rong Zhen nodded, "That's exactly what I was thinking."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tianji immediately had a chessboard prepared, and then the two sat facing each other, one playing white and the other black.

After a moment, Mu Tianji looked at the intricate chess game on the board, then glanced at Rong Zhen and asked, "Is the Regent aware that I was summoned to the palace by your emperor today?"

"I've heard about it," Rong Zhen said calmly, placing the black piece steadily on the chessboard.

Seeing that he was not showing any emotion, Mu Tianji paused and also placed a piece, "Your emperor is forcing me to choose sides."

Upon hearing this, Rong Zhen looked up at him and asked, "Forcing you to take sides?"

"Yes." Mu Tianji sighed. "Unexpectedly, the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease. I only wish to live a peaceful life for the rest of my days, but I'm afraid that wish will not be fulfilled."

Although he refused decisively today, he still felt that the emperor would not give up.

Rong Zhen pondered for a moment, then asked, "Then what does the gentleman intend to do?"

Mu Tianji said, "I have always regarded my junior sister as my own sister, and naturally I extend that same affection to you. I would never do anything that would be detrimental to you."

But I, Mu, am well aware of Your Highness's plans. Although I am not very capable, I would like to lend you a hand.

Since the emperor wants to recruit me, I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to play along.

Upon hearing this, Rong Zhen did not refuse, but said, "We will remember your kindness to my wife and me, but have you already made your decision?"

"Yes." Mu Tianji nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, the emperor will summon me to the palace again tomorrow."

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Rong Zhen said nothing more, only saying, "If you have any needs, please feel free to ask."

Mu Tianji waved his hand, "I have no other needs. My current life is very good."

When Yunwei came to call the two of them to have dinner, they had already finished a game of chess.

"Let's go eat," Mu Tianji said, getting up.

The Mu family has many members, so the dinner table was very lively.

After a few rounds of drinks, Mu Tianji put down his cup and said to Yun Wei, "Thanks to Junior Sister for taking our family in these past few days, things have gotten a bit easier for us. So, we're planning to move out in a couple of days."

Yunwei was taken aback, put down her chopsticks, looked at him in surprise, and then looked at Madam Mu, "I don't need this house for the time being, you can stay here indefinitely, why do you want to move out?"

Madam Mu squeezed her hand. "Junior Sister, don't overthink it. We want to move out because we've found a place to live. A few days ago, we found a house in the west of the city that we liked. Although it's not big, it's enough for our whole family to live in if we squeeze in."

As you know, since we opened the shop, we've had income every day. As long as we don't spend extravagantly, the money we earn is enough for our family to live on.

Now that we've decided to settle in Wei, we need a home of our own. This place is very nice, but if we stay any longer, we'll become dependent on you.

“You can stay here as long as you like, no problem. I have plenty of houses.” Yun Wei frowned.

“I know, but it’s better to have it yourself than to have it from others. Besides, Qingcang and the others are still young, and they should be allowed to work hard and prepare for the future,” Madam Mu said solemnly.

“Yes, Auntie, please don’t keep helping us, or we’ll become lazy,” Mu Qinghao chimed in.

Mu Qingxue nodded, "Auntie, don't worry about us. The shops we opened are doing very well. My mother thinks that we might have a talent for business, so she plans to open a few shops in other places. Who knows, we might even become the richest people in the area in the future."

"Ahem, forget about becoming the richest man, but having enough to eat three meals a day is no problem." Mu Qingcang said, looking embarrassed.

This girl is really good at bragging, calling herself the richest person?
However, it's not like you can't even think about it.
