Reborn as a bride, pretending to be virtuous, the prince held his waist and regretted

Marquis Changning walked at the end and said softly, "Xiling, you've worked so hard. After the corn issue is settled, let your mother-in-law take you out for a stroll and buy whatever you like!"

"Thank you, father!" Gu Xiling thanked, "Xiling and the prince have not been able to enjoy your presence these days, and have caused mother and grandmother to worry. This is really unfilial. Now that this matter is over, Xiling and the prince will return home and respect their elders."

"Good!" Marquis Changning felt happy when he heard this. What his daughter-in-law said was pleasing to the ear.

As for Zhou Jin, if he was not his biological son, he would poison Zhou Jin and make him mute.

If he had two sons, he would want to kick Zhou Jin out of the house.

After everyone left, Gu Xiling turned around and asked with a sweet smile: "Husband, why are these adults looking at me like this? It's weird!"

Zhou Jin was about to answer, but Wang Shiwen spoke first, "My sister-in-law, you don't know, just now His Majesty was in the threshing ground, talking to the men, women, old and young farmers on the farm, and they all praised you."

"Ah?" Gu Xiling was stunned and looked at Zhou Jin, "Prince, is this true?"

Zhou Jin chuckled, "Yes, my lady is supported by the farmers on the farm. They talk about small things in life, but the words they say can be heard by His Majesty and the court officials as being sincere."

Gu Xiling shook her head and laughed, "Those are just small things, not worth mentioning."

"My lady, don't be too modest. It's a small matter for you, but it's a big matter for the farmers. They will remember your kindness for the rest of their lives." Zhou Jin replied, "Especially because you delivered the medicine in time. No one in our farm got sick and died because of the heavy rain. You are a lifesaver."

Wang Shiwen bowed and saluted, "Sister-in-law, you are kind and virtuous, I admire you."

Gu Xiling waved her hand, "Alright, stop praising me. If you continue praising me, I will become arrogant. Prince, now that His Majesty has left, won't you leave with him?"

Wang Shiwen has a thick skin, but he has tempered it now.

Even though Gu Xiling's words implied something about him, he remained calm and said, "I will go back to Beijing with Brother Zhou tomorrow."

"So that's how it is. My husband has been too tired recently. Young Master Wang, you should do more work and continue to work in the threshing floor." Gu Xiling supported Zhou Jin. It was hot at noon, so they went home to take a nap.

Wang Shiwen looked up at the blazing sun in the sky and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so cruel. It would be so hot to work in the fields now. I will go later."

Wang Shiwen did not go back either. Instead, he found a shady place, spread out a mat, and sat under a tree to enjoy the cool air.

There is still some ice left at home, which I put in the bedroom. It is cool and very comfortable.

Zhou Jin drank some wine at noon and lay down on the bed, feeling very sleepy. "My wife, let's sleep together."

Gu Xiling stretched out her slender fingers and sniffed, "Get out of the way, you reek of alcohol! I'm sleeping on the couch."

"No, no, let's go to sleep together!" After drinking, Zhou Jin's skin turned slightly red and his eyes became a little more moist. He was no longer as dignified as usual, like a naughty little brat.

He held Gu Xiling's waist tightly and said, "My wife is so good, so good. There is no better woman in the world than my wife..."

The same words kept repeating over and over again, giving Gu Xiling a headache. She was about to be pulled onto the bed.

Gu Xiling was really hot and tapped Zhou Jin's arm with her fingers.

Zhou Jin only felt his wrist was a little numb, then he let go of Gu Xiling's waist and fell on the bed, still feeling aggrieved, "My wife, don't you like me?"

Gu Xiling glared at Zhou Jin. "I think you are just a coward because of the alcohol. You are brave enough to do things that you normally wouldn't dare to do. Don't say you are confused because of the alcohol. That doesn't exist. I can be sure that your body may be a little out of control, but your mind is very clear."

Zhou Jin lay on his side and smiled. This was the truth. “Then I’m thirsty!”

Gu Xiling poured tea for Zhou Jin, "Drink a few sips and have a good sleep. You've been working too hard recently."

This time Zhou Jin was obedient. After drinking the tea, he lay down, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Zhou Jin was indeed very tired and nervous. Now that His Majesty had left, he could finally relax.

Not only will you receive rewards from His Majesty, but you will also be able to promote the cultivation of high-yield corn and benefit millions of people.

Zhou Jin got unprecedented satisfaction from this matter.

All this was done with the help of his wife.

Before falling asleep, Zhou Jin was still thinking in his heart, my wife is so nice!

Wang Shiwen slept on a mat under the shade of a tree, while Dachun gave Xiuzhu the Luozidai ink that someone had brought from the capital.

"Miss Xiuzhu, I am grateful for your advice during this period. Otherwise, I would not be able to do my job well as I am unfamiliar with the place. This is the Luozidai from the Beauty Shop. Please accept it, Miss Xiuzhu."

Xiuzhu wanted to refuse, but the products from Meiyanfang were so good. The rouge that Dachun gave her last time was better than the one she bought herself.

Not only is it delicate, but the color is also beautiful.

"You gave me rouge last time. How can I accept your things now?" Although Xiuzhu said this, her eyes kept looking at the Luozidai in Dachun's hand.

Dachun handed over the box of Luozidai and said, "It's a thank you gift, so please don't be polite, Miss Xiuzhu. My family has a very good relationship with Prince Zhou, and we will visit each other frequently in the future. If there is anything inappropriate, please point it out to me, Miss Xiuzhu. I will definitely reward you handsomely."

Xiuzhu finally couldn't resist the temptation and took it. "The two families are old friends, so it's only natural for us to visit each other frequently. As long as it's not taboo for the master, I can say a thing or two."

Upon hearing this, Dachun immediately responded, "Even if our young master is sensible and has taboos, we won't ask about them!"

After hearing this, Xiuzhu took the Luozidai with peace of mind and put it in her sleeve. She glanced at Wang Shiwen who was enjoying the cool under a tree.

Although he is not as handsome as the prince, he is still quite handsome.

"Your son has been to the farm for several days, why hasn't your wife sent anyone to show concern?"

Dachun smiled when he heard this and said, "My wife has returned to Taiyuan to visit her relatives and is not at home."

Xiuzhu suddenly understood what he said, and her eyes were meaningful, "No wonder!"

Wang Shiwen never mentioned his wife at home, which shows that Pei Jiuniang was not in his heart.

However, Pei Jiuniang is very powerful, so she has to stay away from her to prevent Wang Shiwen from being attracted by her beauty.

When Dachun saw Xiuzhu looking at his son, he thought Xiuzhu had some feelings for his son.

However, this matter cannot be made public. Only if Xiuzhu is bold enough will Dachun make the connection.

Otherwise, this matter must not be told to avoid offending the Changning Marquis' Mansion.

Dachun smiled and said, "Since Miss Xiuzhu is so pretty and she is a maidservant, she will surely have a bright future."

Xiuzhu heard this and shook her head and sighed, "How can it be so easy? My prince is deeply in love with the lady, and we, the common women, are not worthy of his eyes."

Dachun understood that Prince Zhou must be henpecked, and Xiuzhu probably could not become a maid or a concubine.

Dachun watched Xiuzhu leave. At this time, Wang Shiwen frowned and asked, "Dachun, are you interested in Xiuzhu?"
