After discussing the affairs of the Luo family, the wife said to everyone: "Chao'er's marriage has been decided. I have invited everyone here today just to tell you that I have ordered people to calculate the date carefully and plan to do it on the eighth day of the next lunar month. , then marry Afu and come in."

"So urgent?" Everyone in the room who didn't know the inside story asked in surprise almost at the same time.

Sima Chuge would only return home on the pretext of arranging Sima Chao's marriage, so Ma Zhengde was so anxious to let his son marry Luo Nu.

Faced with everyone's questions, the wife didn't know how to respond. She subconsciously looked at her eldest son.

Sima Zhengde stroked his beard and replied in a deep voice: "It's Chao'er who is worried."

As he said that, Sima Zhengde raised his eyes and glanced at his son. Sima Chao had no choice but to take the blame and said bravely: "It is true that I am anxious to get a wife. I am not young now. There are people as big as me outside. I already have several sons, how can I not be anxious."

Sima Chao was a cold person, and his words made everyone in the room laugh.

The fifth girl, Sima Chuyun, laughed and joked: "This is the first time I heard the elder brother tell a joke. I never thought that a person like the elder brother would change his temper when it comes to getting a wife."

Mrs. Su echoed: "Since the eldest son's wedding is so urgent, we must hurry up and make preparations."

Sima Zhengde glanced at Mrs. Su with a smile and replied: "Chu Yu will be returning home in the next few days. With her help, it will be in time."

"The eldest lady has always been steady. With the eldest lady personally handling the marriage affairs for the eldest son, she will definitely be able to take care of everything." Mrs. Su said with a smile.

Sitting aside, Mrs. Wang watched coldly as Sima Zhengde sang with Mrs. Su. She felt very unhappy. She rolled her eyes at Mrs. Su secretly and said displeasedly: "I am Chao'er's legitimate mother. Chao'er's marriage is such a big deal. , Mrs. Su is actually more active than my mistress."

Sima Zhengde dotes on Mrs. Su, and Mrs. Wang has always been worried about this. Today, when she saw the two of them acting like a husband and a wife in front of everyone, she could no longer keep her anger.

There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. Although Mrs. Su was favored and protected by Sima Zhengde, she was also angry with Mr. Wang in private. Seeing that Mr. Wang was about to make trouble again, Mrs. Su hurriedly calmed down the matter and said calmly: "I was negligent for a moment. , I hope my sister won’t be blamed.”

Mrs. Wang snorted coldly and continued to challenge Ms. Su: "There are state laws and family rules. You have repeatedly failed to fulfill your duty as a concubine by relying on the master's favor. This cannot be offset by a light apology. "

It was clear that Wang was going to show off to Su in front of everyone.

Mrs. Su frowned, not knowing how to deal with it, when Sima Zhengde said to Mrs. Wang in a deep voice: "I asked Mrs. Su to take the trouble to arrange Chao'er's marriage. Do you have any dissatisfaction?"

In a powerful family, it is common for the master to pamper his concubines, but he will always give his wife enough dignity.

Although Sima Zhengde doted on Mrs. Su, he never embarrassed his wife in public.

When Wang saw that he openly defended Su in front of everyone today, he was so stunned that he almost lost his breath. After he calmed down, Wang knelt down in front of the Dowager with a plop, and said in a mournful voice: "Mother, I have been married to the Sima family for more than [-] years. I have taken care of my husband's middle child and raised children. I think I have nothing to do with the Sima family and my husband. Now I am so humiliated by my husband. Since my husband dislikes me, If you ask mother to make the decision, why don't you give me a letter of divorce and let me give way to the Su family."

The concubine forced the mistress to invite herself to the palace, which was a crime of great disrespect.

Seeing this, Mrs. Su quickly knelt down with Ms. Wang and admitted her mistake to Ms. Wang: "It's all my fault. Sister, please don't do this."

Without waiting for others to speak, Sima Zhengde stood up and pulled Mrs. Su, and said coldly to Mrs. Wang with a sullen face: "If you invite yourself to come down, I will grant you permission."

After that, regardless of everyone's dissuasion, Sima Zheng pulled Mrs. Su out of Luo'antang.

Mrs. Wang was left kneeling on the ground, crying and complaining about being wronged. Mrs. Tai ordered someone to help her up, gave her a few words of comfort, and then ordered someone to send her back.

In the originally joyful scene, everyone lost interest because of Wang's interference. The wife waved her hands and said helplessly: "That's it, let's all leave. I'm old and don't like to worry about tomorrow." I'm back now, and I'll leave the affairs of the eldest house to her to take care of." Everyone said goodbye to the madam, and left Luo'antang in twos and threes, heading towards their respective courtyards.

Luo Shi did not expect that her husband would offer to rehabilitate the Luo family. She was happy and treated her husband no longer as coldly as when she came here.

The couple returned to Xiyuan side by side. Luo dismissed the maid in the house. She bowed deeply to her husband and said, "General, I am so kind to you. I will never forget it."

Sima Zhengren supported his wife with both hands, frowned and replied, "I am your husband and you are my wife, why are you saying such things?"

He looked at his wife and said: "My father-in-law's family was always wronged, but at that time the Guo family was all over the world. Even if I wanted to stand up for your family, I couldn't. But I have always kept this account in my heart. Ever since Queen Mother Guo passed away, I have been thinking about rehabilitating your natal family."

"The general didn't lie to me?"

Luo Shi always thought that her husband only cared about the future of the Sima family and had never planned for her natal family. Now Luo Shi was shocked when she heard what her husband said.

Because of surprise, her tone of voice even changed.

Seeing his wife being so surprised, Sima Zhengren frowned and asked back, "I am the son-in-law of the Luo family. Isn't this an act of my duty? Why is my wife so surprised?"

Luo Shi didn't expect her husband to have such thoughts. She was so excited that her eyes became sore and she shed tears.

Sima Zhengren was also confused about his wife's thoughts. When he saw her crying again, he immediately panicked, scratched his head and asked: "What's wrong, madam? Why are you crying again? But I said the wrong thing and did the wrong thing again." ?”

"It's not your fault, I'm just happy." As she said that, Luo subconsciously snuggled into her husband's arms. Her husband's chest was solid and broad. She had never felt that she could feel so safe and secure in her husband's arms before. .

For Sima Zhengren, his wife's move made him more at a loss than seeing her cry.

They have been husband and wife for more than ten years, and he has always taken the initiative to get close to her, while his wife always acts like the boss is reluctant.

She actually took the initiative to throw herself into my arms?

This is an unprecedented first time.

The moment his wife threw herself into his arms, the blood all over Sima Zhengren's body began to churn restlessly, but he did not dare to move rashly at all. He stood there stiffly, not even daring to easily hug his wife back.

Luo Shi noticed something strange about her husband. She looked up at him and asked, "Husband, what's wrong with you?"

It was also the first time to call him husband.

For a moment, Sima Zhengren felt that his mind went blank and his eyes were filled with stars. He shook his head and tried to calm down, but his whole body was so hot that he felt like he was going to explode.

Finally, he couldn't take it any longer.

Sima Zhengren's eyes were red, he looked straight at his wife, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Is it okay?"

Luo Shi reacted for a while before she understood. She covered her mouth with a smile and nodded vigorously at her husband.
