A family of widows, all shouldered, raising the dragon flag!

Shen Zhiwei blushed deeply upon hearing Su Ningzhi's words from inside the room.

Liu Jinghong almost burst out laughing.

Qin Ze heard a sound from outside the room.

I was taken aback!

"Who?"

This loud shout made Shen Zhiwei tremble with fright.

At that moment, she felt like dying.

If Qin Ze had encountered her before, it would have been understandable; she didn't mean it.

But today it's like this!

She couldn't clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

"My husband, I was just passing by, just passing by!"

"Good luck, my husband. I'm heading back now."

As soon as Liu Jinghong spoke, Su Ningzhi, who was inside the room, was so embarrassed that she immediately covered herself with the blanket.

Qin Ze could only manage a wry smile.

He never expected Liu Jinghong to have this hobby.

Shen Zhiwei returned to the house, patting her chest.

"Sister-in-law, look how scared you are! Even if he finds out, what can he do?"

Looking at Liu Jinghong's carefree and unconcerned manner.

Shen Zhiwei couldn't help but scold, "You're fine, you're his wife after all."

"I'm the eldest sister-in-law, and... and the old lady entrusted him with all the responsibilities. Logically, I should be standing in front of you, but I don't have confidence in him..."

These words made Liu Jinghong laugh.

"Sister-in-law, when it's light tomorrow, you'll find that your ninth brother will be famous throughout the land!"

"Most importantly, my husband is an absolute hunchback! You should understand what 'hunchback' means!"

Looking at the smile in Liu Jinghong's eyes.

How could Shen Zhiwei not understand?

Her face immediately turned rosy and radiant.

"Second sister, are you trying to get yourself killed? How could you say such a thing?"

"What's there to be afraid of? There's no one else around. Besides, if I tell my sister-in-law, would she tell anyone else?"

"Sister-in-law, you've been through this before. You were the one who carried the entire Qin family on your own before. It's time for you to find a safe haven to rest for a while."

"Shouldn't you give your husband even a chance?"

Hearing this, Shen Zhiwei sighed softly.

"I...I don't know either!"

At this moment, Shen Zhiwei suddenly felt a little flustered.

I'm even a little scared!

Although she was the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family, although she was beautiful, and although she was skilled at managing the household...

But after all, they are withered flowers and fallen willows!

And it's even bigger than Qin Ze!

Thinking about these things, she felt a sense of resistance and even felt that Qin Ze might not like her.

In terms of martial arts, she was not a master, not as good as Liu Jinghong.

In terms of academic papers, she was not as good as Su Ningzhi, who came from a scholarly family.

Now that Qin Ze has married two people, she doesn't feel like she has anything to offer.

Looking at Shen Zhiwei's lost and dejected expression.

Liu Jinghong suddenly guessed what was going on.

"Sister-in-law, what don't you know? I know that my husband has been longing for you for a long time."

"what?"

Liu Jinghong's words were like a thunderbolt.

This made Shen Zhiwei's heart tremble.

"My husband said that the Qin family can't do without you, sister-in-law!"

"Besides, your husband already knew you were eavesdropping that day, and he did it on purpose."

"My goal is to get your attention!"

"I don't know, he talks about you even when he's in his sleep!"

At this moment, Shen Zhiwei's curiosity reached its peak.

"What did he say?"

"He said my sister-in-law is intelligent and beautiful, with a great figure, especially her large breasts. She's the oldest and most beautiful among the nine of us, and you can tell at a glance she's going to have a son..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhiwei quickly told Liu Jinghong to stop.

"Okay, that's enough!"

"Hmph, when did he say that? When did he even have such an idea?"

Liu Jinghong thought she could easily manipulate her sister-in-law by using familiar language.

The anger in Shen Zhiwei's eyes was evident.

She suddenly felt that it had backfired.

"Of course, it's when you're with me. Otherwise, how would I know?"

"Hmph, I thought he had changed, but he's still the same as always. I even feel like I'm not good enough for him!"

"Tell him that his time is up; if he can't turn the shop around within half a month, I will leave the Qin family!"

Watching Shen Zhiwei turn and leave.

Liu Jinghong didn't know what she had done wrong.

Looking at Su Ningzhi's house not far away, the lights were still on.

Qin Ze was completely unaware that Shen Zhiwei's opinion of him had dropped again.

He was so engrossed in the pleasures of love that he didn't want to leave.

"My husband, please... take a look at this bridal veil!"

Qin Ze stared blankly at that touch of rose red.

Although Liu Jinghong had told him beforehand, he was still overjoyed when he saw the moment.

They couldn't help but hug each other tightly.

Feeling Qin Ze's strong arms.

Su Ningzhi closed her eyes shyly.

"My wife, there's no need for that. Even without this, I will love you for all eternity!"

"No, since I have it, I should naturally let my husband know. Besides... and this is a surprise for you, just like the 'Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River' you gave me!"

After saying this, Su Ningzhi let out a soft cry.

"My husband, please have mercy on me!"

"My lady, please close your eyes!"

Offense and defense have shifted!

A second time!

The sun is high in the sky!

Su Ningzhi suddenly understood why Liu Jinghong had gotten up so late.

Qin Ze didn't give her much of a chance to rest.

Fortunately, nothing happened on their first wedding night.

If anything were to happen, she would be too ashamed to face the old lady.

"My wife, you should rest well and not get up."

"Oh? How can that be?"

"Why not? I'm the head of the household, and my word is law!"

As he spoke, he directly carried Su Ningzhi, who was about to get out of bed, back onto the bed.

"Rest well, I'll have the servants take care of you!"

Looking at Qin Ze's domineering appearance, Su Ningzhi nodded shyly. For some reason, she now really liked Qin Ze's domineering nature.

Just as Qin Ze opened the door to go find the old lady, Liu Jinghong ran over with a guilty look on her face.

"My husband, I may have caused you trouble."

Seeing Liu Jinghong's lowered head and slightly reddened eyes as she admitted her mistake, Qin Ze had no intention of blaming her at all.

"Whatever trouble it may be, I'll shoulder it all. Even if the sky falls, don't be afraid!"

These domineering words made Liu Jinghong even more heartbroken.

"I made my sister-in-law leave, and she'll probably dislike you even more now!"

"Huh? What happened?"

Qin Ze was somewhat bewildered.

I was just sitting at home when trouble came out of nowhere.

He quickly understood what was going on.

"My wife, my sister-in-law must have misunderstood that I had feelings for her all along. If that's the case, how could she not be furious? That was when Father and my brothers were still here. If I had any feelings for her, wouldn't I be unfilial? Wouldn't I be..."

"It's alright, I'll explain."

They gave each other a gentle hug.

Just as he was about to pick the other person up and take them back to the house, that familiar, shrill, hoarse voice left Qin Ze speechless.

"The imperial edict has arrived."

"Your subject Qin Ze receives the imperial decree!"

"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Qin Ze's performance yesterday was unparalleled throughout history, enhancing the prestige of our Great Zhou Dynasty..."

"However, there are still those vassal states who are unwilling to submit. Today, in this martial arts competition, Qin Ze, as a descendant of a loyal and valiant man, should bravely step forward..."

"If we can win, we can marry any princess from a vassal state, so that the Qin family can have many descendants..."

Qin Ze was stunned.

The household responsibilities haven't been resolved yet.

Are they going to get involved with outsiders again?

What does the emperor mean by this?

Is this really a reward for him?

Holding the imperial edict, Qin Ze even forgot to give the eunuch a reward, but fortunately Liu Jinghong was there to help.

The old lady slowly walked out.

"Ze'er, since it is the Emperor's decree, it cannot be disobeyed."

"Go! For the sake of the Great Zhou Dynasty, for the sake of my Qin family, strive for literary success and ensure our lineage flourishes!"
