Apr 12, 2022

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Hu Jiao was jealous, but Hu Jiao was a little dazed and didn't really pay attention to her inner feelings until she saw the picture of Yu Niang and Xu Qingjia alone, and finally couldn't help her temper and yelled at Yu Niang to get out. How could she know that Xu Qingjia was uncharacteristically protecting Yu Niang, and even criticized Hu Jiao in public and asked her to apologize to Yu Niang.

Because of this, Hu Jiao proposed to divorce in a rage, and her and Xu Qingjia's identities as fake husband and wife were completely exposed. When the magistrate Zhu learned that there was a fire in Xu Qingjia's backyard, he asked Aunt Yun to listen to the corner. As for Gao Zheng, he directly dragged Yu Niang away and warned her not to make trouble in other people's houses. Yu Niang saw Gao Zheng's thoughts and asked him vaguely if he cared about her, but Gao Zheng did not respond directly.

On the other hand, Xu Qingjia couldn't bear it any longer, and scolded Hu Jiao for being emotional every day. Even if he didn't do well enough, he was not utterly heinous. Therefore, during this period of time, Xu Qingjia also suppressed too many emotions. This time, he finally had the opportunity to speak out, and the quarrel ended up unhappy.

Xu Qingjia went to the yamen to handle official business, and did not rest all night. The next morning, he returned home and found that Hu Jiao's eyes were dark blue, obviously because of insomnia last night. Most people are greedy. When she was in Yunlai, Xu Qingjia turned a blind eye to Hu Jiao, but she didn't take it seriously, but now she suddenly turned her face and felt sad for no reason.

The two were always in a state of cold war, and Cui Wulang was enjoying himself, but Yu Niang came over with a dessert made by herself, which made the atmosphere quite strange. Xu Qingjia kept her distance as much as possible, hurriedly took a few bites and went to the yamen with Cui Wulang. As soon as they left, the women in the room began to confront each other.

No matter how coldly Hu Jiao treated each other, Yu Niang always smiled and pointed out that she did not want Xu Qing to accept her concubine. Hu Jiao really couldn't figure out why Yu Niang was dressed in brocade and food, and she had both talent and beauty, why she had to pester Xu Qingjia, and at the same time, because of Yu Niang's words, she thought of a way to overcome rigidity with softness.

Nowadays, the real account book and the silver mine have not progressed for a long time. Xu Qingjia feels shameless to face those workers, and can clearly feel the weight of the jack on his shoulders. On the way to the yamen, Xu Qingjia accidentally found Yang Zhuzhu coming out of the newly opened restaurant. He was so drunk that he needed someone to help him to go back.

For a period of time after that, Xu Qingjia went out early and returned late to be busy with official business. Even if he went home, he would spend the night in the study, so there were few opportunities to meet each other every day. That day, when Xu Qingjia came back in the middle of the night, he didn't expect Cui Wulang to wait for him at the door for a long time, just because Hu Jiao sat in the yard without a word and sharpened his knife, which made him a little horrified.

Hu Jiao also accepted it when she saw it, and didn't have to force the man to kneel down and admit her mistake, so when Xu Qingjia took the initiative to apologize to her, she was relieved a lot. Perhaps inspired by Yu Niang, Hu Jiao took the initiative to cook porridge for Xu Qingjia. She was going to send it to the yamen, but she happened to see Xu Qingjia entering Yuchun Tower.

Realizing that Xu Qingjia and Yuniang had been meeting frequently these days, Hu Jiao was very angry, sitting alone in the corner and crying bitterly. Gao Zheng saw this scene, so she ran to Yuchunlou to warn Yuniang again. Just as Yu Niang was painting a portrait, she asked Gao Zheng to sit next to her as a model, and by the way revealed her innocence with Xu Qingjia, she was just acting on Hu Jiao on purpose, so that she could see her heart as soon as possible.

In this way, Xu Qingjia asked Yu Niang to give a powerful medicine, but Yu Niang's powerful medicine was not only useful to Hu Jiao, but even made Gao Zheng difficult to control. After getting along last time, both Gao Zheng and Yu Niang had a good impression of each other, but Gao Zheng was far more dull than Xu Qingjia.

Yu Niang still persevered to bring dim sum to Xu's house. Sometimes she deliberately put a plate of carp on it. At first, Hu Jiao didn't pay attention to it. After she knew the meaning of carp, she decided to cook by herself. After trying, I finally made a qualified noodle carp.
