She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine

It's easy to talk without any pain in the waist. It's not that difficult to just say a few nice words.

It's because Qiao Zhenzhen herself is like that. She says sweet words, but what she thinks in her heart is completely different. She can be said to be a typical double-dealer.

But for someone with Han Zheng's personality, what he says is never just to coax others, most of the time it is what he really thinks in his heart.

Seeing that his wife didn't respond, Han Zheng continued, "There's nothing wrong with the way you handled your mother's pretending to be sick this time."

Qiao Zhenzhen finally spoke, and asked jokingly, "Are you not planning on coming back to confront me?"

Han Zheng turned her around, facing her, looked into her eyes, and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Does my behavior seem like I'm accusing you of something?"

Qiao Zhenzhen turned her head to the side, but he straightened it again.

"Look at me." He spoke in a very gentle tone, with words that were suggestive.

There was a hint of surprise in Qiao Zhenzhen's eyes. In their usual interactions, Han Zheng rarely showed his dominance.

But in fact, he has always been in a leadership position when dealing with others.

In fact, he had revealed some of his feelings before, for example, he always called her "naughty", a word that had an indescribable meaning.

Just like an elder.

But he didn't show this side of her very often, and he was more patient and tolerant of her willfulness.

"My actions seem to be calling you to task?"

He moved closer to Qiao Zhenzhen and asked again, but this time, it was more like whispering in her ear, with a hint of teasing and color in it.

Qiao Zhenzhen's fair skin turned pink and she hid herself in the water.

"...No." Her voice was very soft.

Han Zheng's pair of beautiful phoenix eyes stared at her intently, as if she was the only one in his world.

"Believe me, what I said before, I will definitely treat you well and won't let you suffer any injustice. I didn't do that to coax you."

Qiao Zhenzhen raised her eyes and looked at him, "Really?"

She still didn't believe it.

"real."

They were so close that his breath fanned her face.

"My mother would complain to me because she thought I would side with her, just like a crying child who would stop crying once she knew it was useless and could not achieve her goal."

There was surprise in Qiao Zhenzhen's eyes. She didn't expect that he understood everything.

She originally thought that Han Zheng was just an authentic ancient man, and he was rare enough not to help his mother bully his wife.

I never expected that he would stand on his wife's side.

"You won't favor her?"

"will not."

"Why?"

Han Zheng was silent for a moment before he said, "Just like you, I also feel tired."

After a busy day, when you get home, you can't enjoy the soft fragrance of jade, but have to listen to people crying and complaining. No one can stand it after a long time.

He was a decisive man, and between his wife and his mother, he decisively chose his wife.

Because the wife is a sensible person, it is beneficial for both of them to manage their relationship well.

Besides...he liked her very much.

And his mother's behavior often makes people feel uncomfortable.

In the past, I tolerated my mother’s tantrums because it was not a big deal, but now I can no longer do that.

It was because of his wife's attitude today that he felt that her tolerance would not last long.

Just like she said before, it would be a terrible thing once she crossed her bottom line.

Although she looked like she was joking when she said this, Han Zheng had a hunch that she was not joking.

From the little bits and pieces of their interactions, it became clear that his wife’s true character was not what she appeared to be, and had nothing to do with the rumors.

She is very good at disguising herself, and what her real self is like remains for him to discover slowly.

But one thing he was sure of was that she didn't really trust him.

It is not easy for her to open her heart and rely on you completely.

But it doesn't matter, they still have a long way to go and there is no need to rush.

There was inquiry in Qiao Zhenzhen's eyes as she looked at him, but Han Zheng's gaze was firm, so she chose to believe him for the time being.

After a moment of silence, she smiled, took the initiative to put her arms around his neck, and rested her chin on his thick shoulders.

This action effectively concealed her true expression.

There are very complicated emotions there.

It's not entirely the indifference at the beginning, there's already a hint of excitement mixed in.

"We need to be together." She murmured.

"Yes, I will." Han Zheng responded to her quickly.

He tightened his strong arms and locked her tightly in his embrace.

……

Lin's complaint this time had no effect.

Lin Wan'er secretly inquired and the news she got was still that the prince and his wife were very affectionate and had no grudges against each other.

It makes people feel depressed.

Just like Han Zheng said, a crying child will stop crying when he finds that he can’t get candy.

Once you realize that this method is useless, you will stop.

All the actions of Lin and Lin Wan'er were just to influence Han Zheng's behavior.

After realizing that it was of no use, all one could do was to calm down for the time being and return to normal.

After resting for a few days, Lin went back to serve Old Madam Han.

Lin Wan'er never appeared again, at least not in front of Han Zheng.

It’s just that they provoked each other, and Qiao Zhenzhen always had to return the favor.

But before she could figure out what to do, Yi Wan caught the snake and found an opportunity in the middle of the night to throw it into Lin Wan'er's room.

It also wanted to do the same to Lin, but there were too many guards and servants in Anyuan, so Yiwan never found an opportunity.

Lin Wan'er was scared to death, and Yi Wan didn't just catch snakes to scare her for one day, he also caught mice, insects and other things, which scared her for three days in a row.

Three days later, Xie Qianzhong came to the Duke's Mansion for a short stay.

Qiao Zhenzhen has always known that this master is unruly, but he protects her tightly.

So when Xie Qianzhong asked her how she was doing during her time in the Duke's Mansion and whether she had been bullied, she simply replied that she was doing very well, the old lady treated her well, Han Zheng treated her well, and as for other people, they also got along politely with each other.

She didn't mention the fact that Lin had always been causing trouble for her.

Xie Qianzhong was the one who dared to secretly drug the princess and disfigure her. Who knows what he would do to Lin in private.

Since Han Zheng has made his attitude clear, no matter what happens in the future, he will side with her.

There was no reason for her to push her further.

She wants to stand on the moral high ground and cannot turn over and allow others to catch her.

Besides, no matter what, Lin is still Han Zheng's mother. There are some things that a son can do, but if others get involved, it will be a different matter.

On Xie Qianzhong's side, although he heard his disciple say that everything was fine, he did not completely believe it.

Anyway, he planned to live in the Duke's Mansion for a while, and he could judge the attitudes of the Han family members by observing them.

However, what Qiao Zhenzhen said was half true and half false. As for the entire Han family, as long as Mrs. Lin did not act up, she could get along well with her in-laws.

The second house did not dare to act so blatantly.
