The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xie Lang couldn't help but be startled.

As if he didn't expect that she would say such a thing, he considered it for a moment, lowered his eyelashes and looked at her and said: "Rumors and rumors from the outside world are coming fiercely. You have never experienced this kind of thing, so let me handle it."

"Master Hou, have I really never experienced this?"

Xue Mingyue asked in a calm tone, looking at him steadily.

Ever since the news about her sleeping with Xie Lang spread that day, the rumors from the outside world have not slowed down even now. If she can be considered as having never experienced such malicious slander, then probably no one in the entire Yongji City has experienced it.

Soon, she withdrew her gaze and secretly curled her lower lip.

She didn't want to quarrel with Xie Lang over these things again.

Xie Lang's heart suddenly shook, and annoyance flashed across his dark eyes. He immediately reached out to pull her and explained: "Mingyue, I didn't mean that."

"I'm just worried that you'll be in a hurry to deal with this kind of thing, so I want to help you. It's not that I think you are incapable of handling it. I will definitely say such things in the future."

Xue Mingyue lowered her eyes, took two steps back and freed her hand.

He said calmly: "I understand what the Marquis means. I am very grateful to the Marquis for telling me this matter. I can solve the matter myself, so I won't bother the Marquis. I'm afraid the Marquis hasn't had dinner when he comes back from duty, so why don't you call someone Send it to…”

Xie Lang smiled helplessly when he heard this. This was another order to expel him.

"Wuye, didn't you hear what Madam said?"

Before she finished speaking, he suddenly interrupted her next words, and glanced at Wu Ye with cold eyes: "Why don't you order the kitchen to deliver the meals to the main courtyard, and then let them bring the sweet soup prepared for Madam?" Serve it up.”

Xue Mingyue was suddenly stuck: "..."

He raised his head and looked at Xie Lang in shock.

"Yes, Lord Marquis!"

Wuye didn't dare to look at the expressions of the two masters, so he quickly agreed and ran to the kitchen.

On the way, I was still thinking secretly in my heart. Madam seemed to want to ask someone to send the food to the study. The Marquis looked like he was risking his face and wanted to stay in the main courtyard.

Seeing her with such a lively expression, Xie Lang was stunned for a moment, and a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling welled up in his heart.

The angry girl in front of him seemed to gradually overlap with the resolute and agile face in the wind and snow.

The long-lasting depression that lingered in my heart gradually dissipated.

At this time, she had only been married to him for more than a month, and he had treated her mostly coldly before. It was right for her to be angry with him, and she always wanted to vent her dissatisfaction. They still had a long life ahead of them. Xie Lang's originally tense expression gradually relaxed.

He and Mingyue still have a lifetime, and the days ahead are long.

Thinking of this, Xie Lang was reluctant to press her for a response.

He changed the topic nonchalantly and said with a chuckle: "I heard that the main courtyard has a new chef, so I can have a taste today."

"..."

It was as if he hadn't eaten anything from the kitchen in the past two days.

Xue Mingyue was speechless for a moment and said coldly: "Then please help yourself, Lord Marquis."

After saying that, she ignored him and turned around to go back to sit on the imperial concubine's couch. She glanced at Liu Xin Liulan who was standing motionless and asked Liu Xing to bring her some paper so that they could continue to handle the accounts. Pen.

Since the Yan family wanted to deal with her, she would naturally want to retaliate.

Xie Lang lifted up his robe and sat down, staring intently at the girl sitting on the imperial concubine's couch. Xu was a little excited just now, and her cheeks were filled with a trace of crimson, which made her face even more beautiful.

Xue Mingyue's train of thought was not interrupted amidst the clear and constant sound of the abacus moving.

On the contrary, the more things she wrote, the more things she remembered, and soon she wrote down her plan to fight back against the Yan family clearly one by one.

Seeing her furiously writing something on the desk, Xie Lang couldn't help but feel a little interested.

I couldn't help but ask: "Madam, have you already decided how to deal with the Yan family?"

Xue Mingyue paused slightly, raised her head and glanced at him lightly, and said, "Master Hou, I'd better eat your food."

"But I'm really curious."

"Oh, then Lord Marquis, please continue to be curious."

Wu Ye heard this conversation as soon as he followed the maids into the house, and quickly lowered his head.

Everyone put the food on the table obediently.

There were also cooks in the small kitchen who were eliminated when Wu Ye dealt with the spies. The cooks recruited this time came from Jiangzuo Hangzhou Prefecture. Their specialty dishes are relatively bland, which is different from the tastes here in Yongji.

Xue Mingyue fell into the water, and the imperial doctor warned him not to eat dishes heavy in oil and salt. This cook came at just the right time.

Seeing that she seemed confident, Xie Lang did not interfere with her thoughts.

As for the Yan family, as long as Yan Chengming, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, cannot continue to be the minister of the Ministry of official affairs, then all the bad things their family has done will be out of control. Let Mingyue practice with the Yan family, even if he doesn't do it well, he will be the one to take care of it anyway.

Xie Lang's expression was cold, and his dark eyes were filled with indifference.

Xue Mingyue wrote two full pages, and the idea that flashed in her mind gradually took shape. Looking at her results, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips proudly, with a satisfied smile on her eyebrows and eyes.

In her previous life, she spent most of her time trapped in the house, so she might not understand when it comes to analyzing the current situation.

However, the gossip she has in her hands is definitely unparalleled!

At that time, apart from the books in the courtyard, what Xue Mingyue knew most was the private affairs of various families in the outside world. Only things like this would really spread among the people in the market. Even the people who were trapped in the courtyard heard about her, but You can imagine how widespread it is.

And among them is something about the Yan family.

For example, Shilang Yan had a wife and three concubines in his family, and three sons and two daughters, but none of them were his biological children.

The most favored person in the house is not his wife, Mrs. Yan, but his concubine, Miss Lian. The son she gave birth to was only three or four months apart from Madam Yan's legitimate son. Shilang Yan usually doted on this son more, but this son was born to Miss Lian and the housekeeper. It turned out that the two were childhood sweethearts...

Xue Mingyue roughly wrote down the entire story based on memory.

People are like this. As soon as something more attractive comes up, they will immediately forget the things discussed earlier. The people in the capital have told her and Xie Lang's story several times over the past two months, and it has long since become unattractive.

Since the Yan family insists on thinking that she was the one who harmed Yan Qiulan, they have no choice but to let them get into trouble and not be able to deal with her anymore.

Don’t they like to arrange people in private?

Then let these individuals themselves have a taste of being arranged by others in private.

Xue Mingyue snorted, suddenly remembering that it seemed that not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival in her previous life, Yan Chengming was reported for impeachment for fraud in the imperial examination. The evidence was conclusive. The emperor was furious and immediately sentenced Yan Chengming to death, and his family members were exiled to Yazhou.

That won't work. We have to finish telling this story before the Yan family falls.

Nowadays, the fastest way to spread news is to let the gangsters in the city spread the news by word of mouth, or rely on storytellers and troupes. If you want to go as quickly as possible, it's best to do both.

Xue Mingyue was deep in thought. As soon as she raised her head, she saw Xie Lang sitting not far away handling official documents. She frowned subconsciously and quickly swallowed back what she wanted to ask and shut her mouth tightly.

Why is this annoying guy still here?
