Chapter 190 - 190 Retribution Is Coming Soon

190 Retribution Is Coming Soon

“There’s no need to look in the mirror. The muscular woman you mentioned must be very similar to me.” Concubine Wen twisted her body uneasily. She felt that Jiang Xi’s eyes seemed to be shining when Jiang Xi looked at her. If she were a man, she would probably have pounced on her uncontrollably.

Jiang Xi nodded. ‘Sure, you can think whatever you want.’

Seeing that they could not take advantage of Jiang Xi, the concubines left one after another after sitting for a while. Before leaving, Concubine Yuan even saluted Jiang Xi. She only bowed and left after seeing Jiang Xi nod.

Hong Shan pouted and was not very happy. “This room is full of concubines. Except for Concubines Yuan, who knows the rules, the others are not easy to get along with. Young Madam, what are you going to do in the future?”

!!

Jiang Xi smiled but did not say anything. It did not matter. There was still a long way to go. She could take her time to clean up. Zhao Hongwei had not been in the residence much recently, and she could use this opportunity to reorganize the Zhao residence and change those unruly concubines.

Zhao Hongwei, who was drinking outside, suddenly shuddered.

On the way back, Concubine Wen inadvertently pulled her clothes, revealing the red marks on her neck. “It’s rare for the marquis to come back. I couldn’t even have a good talk with him. He came over and pulled my clothes as soon as he entered…”

When the other ladies saw the hickey on Concubine Wen’s neck, their eyes turned red with anger. They could only blame themselves for not being able to see through people. After entering the Zhao residence, there were many women, and the competition was huge. All of them fought for favor with all their might. It was so annoying!

“Concubine Wen, you should take it easy. I heard that you have brought a lot of snacks into the room. Don’t get fat one day and crush the marquis on the bed.” Concubine Wu joked and left.

Concubine Wen covered her mouth and chuckled, “Who in this residence doesn’t know that I can’t get fat? Of course, it’s not that I’m not fat, it’s just that my fat has all grown to where it should be, don’t you think so, concubine Yuan?” Concubine Wen puffed out her chest, and there was a bit of pride between her eyebrows. “That’s right, Concubine Yuan, I heard that the marquis ran out of your room in a daze the last time, not even wearing his pants. Since then, the marquis has not returned for more than two months. By the way, when will your voice get better? I’m starting to miss your good voice.”

Concubine Wen frowned. Two months ago, after the marquis had left Concubine Yuan’s room, he had not returned home. The people in the residence said that Concubine Yuan’s throat had a problem and she usually did not speak.

Concubine Yuan looked at Concubine Yuan with a meaningful smile. She patted Concubine Yuan’s shoulder. “All the best. You should cherish the days when you can’t get fat. You’ll soon get your retribution.”

“Concubine Yuan, you’re not saying anything again. By the way, why were you so polite to that girl, Jiang Xi, just now? Although we’re concubines, we’re also officially brought into the family by the marquis. We’re not much different from Jiang Xi usually, and we don’t interfere with each other’s affairs. Why are you so respectful to Jiang Xi?” Concubine Wen shook her head. She really could not understand why the usually proud and arrogant Concubine Yuan would value Jiang Xi, a girl from the countryside, so much.

Concubine Yuan smiled and did not say anything, ‘Why am I so respectful? You’ll know when you get fat.’

Concubine Wen and Concubine Yuan went their separate ways and returned to their own rooms. For some reason, Concubine Wen felt hungry, so she asked the servant girl to go to the kitchen to get something to eat. Not long after, Concubine Yuan also sent over a large amount of tonics. Concubine Wen was very surprised, but she still ate them happily. Anyway, she would not gain weight from eating. This was probably the happiest thing, right?

At this time, in the main hall, when everyone saw Zhao Ruifeng appear again, they all pulled him to drink, “Come, come, come. General Zhao, let’s have a drink. It’s rare for you to get married. Today is a happy day, so you should drink a few more cups.” Many people came over with wine glasses to celebrate while sighing and sighing.

“General Zhao, don’t bother with those people. Many of them are betting in the gambling house that your marriage will not be successful. They are also betting that your wife will be fine. Now, those people have lost everything,” someone said gloatingly.

Zhao Ruifeng picked up his glass and drank it in one gulp, covering the smile on his lips. Yes, if there were not so many people who bet, he would not have the money to get so much dowry for his wife, so he had to thank those people.

“Hey, hey, hey, don’t go too far. General Zhao has been waiting for a wife to marry him for many years. If you get him drunk today, he won’t be able to consummate the marriage. Be careful not to get beaten up.” Master Yong An put his arm around Zhao Ruifeng’s shoulder and laughed. There was a concubine’s daughter in the Zhao family who was given to Master Yong An as a concubine. He and Zhao Ruifeng could be considered brothers now.
