Zheng Xiao was annoyed and said angrily, “Although that old woman did do a lot of evil things, how could it be the Zheng family’s fault to give Qian Shi sterilization medicine?

“Before I got married, I was ready to accept Qian as your concubine!

“But you shouldn’t have secretly had sex with her without even telling me!

“Since you didn’t treat me as your wife, why couldn’t I give her sterilization medicine?

“Did I give sterilization medicine to Ruoyi’s mom? I knew Qian Shi’s existence before I married you. Even if you took her as your concubine the day after our marriage, I wouldn’t say anything, let alone give her sterilization medicine. ”

“No, I took her as my concubine because you made her drink sterilization medicine!” Duke Anyuan said, “Before I saw you, I already liked her, but that was just childhood affections not love.”

“wanted to marry her because I thought Qian Shi would be my wife since I was a child.

“But things changed. I couldn’t cancel the marriage contract between you and me, but how would I let Qian Shi be my concubine? That would be humiliating to her.

“After I got married to you, I realized that I just treated her as my sister. At that time, my mother also found a good husband for her, but when she was about to get married, the Zheng family made her drink the medicine!”

Zheng Xiao snorted. “Bah, nonsense! When I was pregnant with Jinniang for seven months, she ran to me crying and said that you took her virginity, so she couldn’t marry someone else and begged me to drink her tea and accept her as your concubine.

“After I drank it, the Zheng family made her drink sterilization medicine! If she weren’t your concubine, how could I have the guts to make your cousin drink sterilization medicine?”

Duke Anyuan shouted, “That was not true! At that time, she had agreed to marry another man, and she even went for an outing with her fiancé. How was it possible for her to say that she was my woman? And how could I be so beastly to take her virginity given the fact that she is my cousin and was not

yet of age?”

Qiao Ruoyi, who was eavesdropping outside the window, thought that Duke Anyuan really deserved it!

After Zheng Xiao figured it out, she laughed. “No wonder you have always felt guilty for her and doted on her. She made you believe that she was forced to drink sterilization medicine by me when she was about to marry another man so she had no choice but to become your concubine? What a joke!”

“If she hadn’t come to provoke me, saying that you two had long since had sex, how could the Zheng family made her drink that medicine to defend my status as your wife?

“Even if I was jealous of her, why would I bother to do that to her when she was about to marry someone else?”

Duke Anyuan had finally figured it out too. It turned out that it was all Qian Shi’s trick to make him always feel guilty toward her and make him want to make up for her.

On one side, she told him that she was going to marry another man, yet on the other side, she went to provoke Zheng Xiao and said that they had already had sex…

“Xiao’er, I didn’t know… Qian Shi had started to trick me at that time.”

Zheng Xiao said, “Your Excellency, it’s meaningless to talk about this now! We’ve already divorced. Even if you explain everything clearly, it will only make me think why I hadn’t divorced earlier.”

Duke Anyuan didn’t feel any guilt for Qian Shi now. “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have trusted her so much! But I’ve only had you in my heart…”

Zheng Xiao covered her mouth and threw up. “Cough, Your Excellency, don’t you disgust me. Aren’t you afraid of being punished by God and struck by lightning when you say this?

“Twenty years ago, you entered my boudoir like this, claiming that you’ve already had someone you loved and that you wanted to marry your cousin! ”

“Oh!” Zheng Xiao vomited even harder.

Qiao Ruoyi hurriedly came in and said, “Father, hearing what you said, even I want to laugh. If you really only have Mother in your heart, then how can you explain about Qian Shi’s matter? Now that Qian Shi is dead, you think you can cook up stories as you like?”

‘When Qiao Jinniang came in, she happened to see Zheng Xiao vomiting. She was so worried that she hurriedly got off Lu Chen’s back. “Mother, are you okay?”

Zheng Xiao glanced at Duke Anyuan and said, “Why are you still not leaving? Are you waiting to see me vomit to death?”

Duke Anyuan sighed and left, but he still remembered to call an imperial physician over.

The imperial physician came to diagnose Zheng Xiao, only to find that it was just morning sickness.

However, Qiao Jinniang still blamed Duke Anyuan for that. She returned to her courtyard, and Qiao Ruoyi told her what happened just now.

Jinniang smiled sarcastically. “It’s always like this for men. Just like in s, a man always wants two women at the same time. One is as soft as moonlight, and the other is as passionate as flames.

“Duke Anyuan said that he only had Mother in his heart, but why didn’t he feel disgusted when he went to Qian Shi’s courtyard? Before he found out about Qian Shi’s true colors, he truly loved her.”

Qiao Ruoyi nodded and said, “Second Sister, you’re right!”

Qiao Jinniang thought for a while and said, “Duke Anyuan is really disgusting. Although this yard is good, it can’t guard Mother against him. I must persuade Mother to move to my house, where the neighbors are all nobles. I’d like to see if Duke Anyuan still dares to climb over the wall!”

In the end, Zheng Xiao didn’t want to be disturbed by Duke Anyuan’s subordinates’ wife, nor did she want to be harassed by Duke Anyuan again, so she moved to Qiao Jinniang’s house.

‘The housewarming banquet had already been held, so they didn’t hold another banquet this time.

But when Qiao Ruoyun heard about it, she came over with gifts to celebrate with them.

“You gave me a housewarming gift last time. How come you brought me a gift this time again? Don’t waste your money.” Zheng Xiao smiled.

Qiao Ruoyun said, “No, it doesn’t cost much money. Wish you good luck, Mother. I have something to tend to at home. I have to go now.”

Zheng Xiao said, “I heard what happened to Miaomiao. She was never such a petty person. How could she possibly hit the Princess? That’s a princess after all!”

Qiao Ruoyun sighed and said, “Yes. The mistress of the Lin family has come several times, demanding to annul the marriage contract, but Miaomiao insisted that she didn’t hit the Princess.

“But the Princess broke her leg when she fell off the horse. My mother-in-law has been sending gifts to the Princess’ mansion every day for fear that His Majesty would punish Miaomiao.

“My father-in-law blamed my mother-in-law for not disciplining her daughter well and even planned to make his concubine’s daughter marry Lin Mo in place of Miaomiao… alas.

“Moreover, this involves a princess, so my husband can’t intervene although he wants to help his sister. I have to go back and keep an eye on Miaomiao in case she does stupid things.”

Qiao Jinniang frowned when she heard this. “Sister, Qin Miaomiao didn’t hit Princess Jinghua. His Royal Highness and I both saw it. That ball didn’t hit the Princess. She fell off the horse purposely!”

Qiao Ruoyun: “Really?”

Qiao Jinniang said, “I saw it on a gentle slope, where I could see more clearly than on the polo field. The ball didn’t hit Princess Jinghua.

“I think the people around the princess should have seen it too, but no one is telling the truth.”

Zheng Xiao sighed. “Even if we know that Miaomiao is innocent, so what? After all, Jinghua is a princess!

“If she said she was hit, then she was hit.”

Qiao Jinniang clenched her hands and said, “Mother, I thought the same thing at first, but Qin Miaomiao is innocent, and she shouldn’t be despised by everyone in Chang’an for this! You have been wronged for 20 years, and I don’t want Qin Miaomiao to suffer like you did.”
