A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

By the time the two of them ordered some hot water and washed themselves up briefly, Pearl came in and changed the bedding. It was already midnight.

Su Qingyu was held in Shen Zhixiu's arms, her fair and delicate shoulders exposed outside the quilt.

Her hands were casually placed on his tight waist, her eyes half closed.

"Tired?" Shen Zhixiu asked in a hoarse voice.

Su Qingyu said "Hmm", and the end of her voice still had a tone of lingering lust.

This sound made Shen Zhixiu's throat tighten, and his broad palm unconsciously rubbed Su Qingyu's back.

"So tired? Then why are you soft again?" Shen Zhixiu's voice was a little deeper than before, and the suppressed tone made Su Qingyu shiver unconsciously.

She looked up at Shen Zhixiu and said, "Third Master, I have something to tell you."

Shen Zhixiu said "Hmm" and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

He said this to her, but his hands didn't stop.

Su Qingyu grabbed Shen Zhixiu's hand, "I'm telling you business, don't move."

There is a hint of coquettishness in it.

As expected, Shen Zhixiu stopped moving, looking at her with burning eyes, waiting for her to say the so-called serious matter.

Su Qingyu coughed lightly and said, "I really have nothing to do in the mansion. My mother just got divorced and took over the grain business in Northern Zhili. She must have a lot of things to do."

"Can I... help her?"

After Su Qingyu asked this question, she looked at Shen Zhixiu hopefully. She had already thought about how she would continue to argue if he refused.

Shen Zhixiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is that all?"

Su Qingyu nodded, "Yes, that's it."

Shen Zhixiu said: "I asked me, Wen Zhu, to choose two bodyguards for you. You can take them with you when you leave the house."

Su Qingyu was startled, "Did you agree?"

Shen Zhixiu said with a smile on his lips, "I agreed."

The next moment, he grabbed her waist and picked her up.

Su Qingyu was unprepared for a moment and lay on top of him.

Shen Zhixiu whispered into her ear: "I agreed to your matter, now..."

The next day, when Su Qingyu opened her eyes, Shen Zhixiu had already gone to court. She had no idea when he left.

According to the rules of the Shen family, after getting dressed, she went to Qingyuan Residence to pay her respects to the old lady.

When she arrived, Second Madam Yang was already there, sitting on a chair with one hand on her forehead.

Su Qingyu bowed to the old lady, then looked at Yang, and asked with concern: "What's wrong with my second sister-in-law? But she's not feeling well?"

Yang frowned and forced a smile, "This is an old problem of mine. This is what happens when I have a headache."

"I just told mother that I am afraid I am not qualified to be the housekeeper. I heard that my third brother's wife has been the housekeeper in her mother's family. I have discussed with mother and handed this matter over to you."

Yang's tone was very soft, looking weak.

Su Qingyu frowned slightly. Yang wanted to hand over the housekeeping power to her? How can this be?

Her mind was racing, thinking of the disputes in the house these days, and her previous rejection of Yang's request, she probably had a guess in her mind.

Yang...this is to sit on a mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

Knowing that the old lady was still waiting for her reply, Su Qingyu put a decent smile on her face.

"Second sister-in-law looks up to me so much. I'm not considered a housekeeper in the Hou Mansion, I just help my mother."

"How can I take care of such a big property like ours? Besides, there is no reason for a sister-in-law to take charge of the house over her two sisters-in-law."

According to the rules, the middle child of the Shen family should be in charge of the eldest wife, Mrs. Chen.

Su Qingyu didn't want to get involved in the Shen family's chores, and she didn't want Yang to succeed, so she politely refused.

Yang wanted to say something else, but footsteps came from outside. Several young ladies and young masters filed in, and Yang stopped talking.

The old lady sat on the kang, not saying a word, as if she was thinking about something.

When Shen Zhao came in, Su Qingyu was listening to the old lady and her granddaughter chatting.

Seeing Shen Zhao come in to say hello, he didn't show any unnecessary expression on his face and looked calm.

"Greetings to Third Aunt, Third Aunt looks bad. Has she not had a good rest in the past two days?"

The tone of Shen Zhao's questions was candid, and the expression of concern on his face was not fake at all. No matter how you looked at it, it was the concern of the younger generation for the elders.

But Su Qingyu caught a bit of sinister and paranoid emotion from his eyes.

"Young Master Lao is concerned, I'm fine." Su Qingyu replied politely.

Shen Zhao didn't say anything more, as if he just expressed concern.

After saying hello and chatting for a few words, everyone got up and went back to their own yard to have breakfast.

When Su Qingyu walked to the small garden, she was blocked by Shen Zhao.

Shen Zhao stared at Su Qingyu with sharp eyes and said nothing.

Su Qingyu frowned slightly, "Master, what are you doing? I know you are a filial brother, but you don't need to send me back in person."

Shen Zhao knew that Su Qingyu was reminding him that their identities were different now.

But he was unwilling to leave those words alone.

"Did you already know that my third uncle was not dead? Did you do it on purpose when you caught the adulterer that day? In order to marry my third uncle, you didn't hesitate to bring people to block me."

"Su Qingyu, I didn't expect you to be such a person who clings to the powerful. Even when you met my third uncle in the mansion that day, you planned it in advance, right?"

Su Qingyu was shocked when she heard this.

How did Shen Zhao know that Shen Zhixiu was in the mansion that day?

What Shen Zhixiu said to the outside world was that he was attacked by horse thieves and was recuperating in the village at the foot of the mountain. If word spread that he was in the palace during the funeral, it would be a crime of deceiving the king.

"What are you talking about, young master? I don't understand." Su Qingyu said calmly, without any clues on her face.

Shen Zhao sneered, "Stop quibbling, I heard this from my third uncle himself. I saw you in the house on the day we broke off the engagement."

"I asked you why you were so determined not to marry me. It turns out you found Gao Zhi."

There was sarcasm in Shen Zhao's tone, as if saying this was the only way to put his fault on Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu's cold eyes were filled with murderous intent. She stared at Shen Zhaohan and warned: "The third master was not in the house that day. You heard wrong."

"If these words get out and bring trouble to Third Master, I will never let you off lightly."

After saying that, Su Qingyu bypassed Shen Zhao and returned to the west courtyard.

She didn't care what Shen Zhao thought of her. But Shen Zhao actually knew that Shen Zhixiu was in the house when he was mourning. She had to tell Shen Zhixiu about this.

Although he died in the northwest to investigate Mr. Xu Ge's personal leave of taking free money, as long as this matter spread, some people would accuse him of deceiving the emperor. There were many people in the court who wanted to kill him. A single oversight could kill the entire Shen family.

But seeing that it was time for lunch, Shen Zhixiu hadn't come back yet. Su Qingyu sent Chuntao to ask if the third master had not returned home or was busy in the study.

Chuntao replied, saying that the third master was called away by the old lady after he returned home.

When Su Qingyu heard this, she remembered what Yang had asked her to do in the morning. If Yang can bring it up, it means that the old lady agrees.

The old lady asked Shen Zhixiu to go again. Is it because of this?

Su Qingyu's thoughts were messy. She was thinking about Yang's thoughts for a while, and recalling the situation in the Shen family's house in her previous life.

When Shen Zhixiu came in, Su Qingyu's thoughts had already drifted away to the sky.

"What are you thinking about?"

Shen Zhixiu asked as he went into the bathroom to wash his face.

Only then did Su Qingyu realize that he had come in. She pulled back her thoughts and asked him, "Mother is looking for you. Is there something wrong?"

Shen Zhixiu walked out of the bathroom with a smile, "Then guess what happened?"

When Su Qingyu heard what he said, she knew that he was thinking the same thing.

"Mom also wants me to take over the family's middle school education?"
