After following Chen Tao, Minglan obviously participated in fewer household quarrels, which was indeed not consistent with her constitution as a time-traveling woman who was prone to all kinds of troubles or good things.

After all, Chen Tao is not Gu Er.

His father is still very healthy, and his second eldest brother is living a very comfortable life. He has no intention of passing away now, so it is impossible for him to become a marquis at such a young age.

He is still just a deputy commander, so naturally no one cares about his wife, Molan, and his concubine, Minglan, whose status is comparable to that of his wife.

It's July now.

Gu Er's brother Gu Tingyu had already passed away at this time, and he himself inherited the title of Ningyuan Hou.

Considering that he still had to bow to the clan leader Gu Tingyu, it would be difficult for him to celebrate or find a wife.

But the target has been decided.

Gu Er found a daughter of a fifth-rank civil official, named Li, who was very outstanding in both appearance and personality.

After all, he was not hit by the succubus aura, so he would not even look for an ordinary woman like Minglan and hold the wedding after the nine-month mourning period stipulated by the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"..."

Minglan sneezed. She had a very sharp sense and felt as if someone was behind her back. In a sense, this was also her cheat.

However, she could never imagine that it was Chen Tao, the good husband who openly said that he liked her chubby hands and feet, who was secretly criticizing her, and instead thought it was Molan.

She said dissatisfiedly: "Fourth sister, why are you looking at me like this?"

The weather is very hot, but wealthy families have their own ways to cool down, such as storing ice in cellars and using human-powered electric fans.

Under their management, there are many more green plants in the small courtyard, which can bring some coolness.

Molan touched her belly, which was expected to give birth at the end of next month, and said deliberately:
"She's a month younger than me, but how come she's fatter than me? This is so weird, so I couldn't help but be curious and stared at her for a while longer."

Minglan shouted angrily, "Stop talking nonsense! How am I fat? It's you who is presbyopic and aged prematurely!"

She also has a setting of being childish.

He is in his forties, but he looks mature yet childish, and he is quite good at pretending.

Molan pointed at herself and said, "You said I will get old first? You are blind! My husband always praises me as the most beautiful, like a blooming orchid. I am more beautiful than you, and I am taller than you, and my vagina is bigger. My husband likes me the most!"

Minglan stared at her: "Since you recognize your husband, then he said that I am a beauty that can overwhelm the whole country. Do you recognize me?"

Molan shook her head and said, "My husband lied to you so that you wouldn't feel ashamed in front of me. After all, what peerless beauty in the world has a pair of fat hands and feet? He has good intentions, how can you take it seriously?"

Minglan looked at her hands, then at her feet, and said angrily, "Nonsense! My husband loves my hands and feet the most."

Molan guessed, "My husband really likes to eat pig's trotters. Could he have seen it wrong?"

She couldn't continue speaking because Minglan's fat hand had pinched her mouth.

But she did not panic, but skillfully pulled Minglan's cheek. The two sisters had competed in internal strength for countless times, but there was still no winner.

Chen Tao suddenly walked in and saw this scene of deep sisterly love. Naturally, he did not find it strange. He walked skillfully to sit between the two and said with a concerned smile:
"Why did they start fighting again?"

Minglan's acting skills became more and more outstanding, and she immediately burst into tears:

"Husband, my sister bullied me again~"

Chen Tao gently stroked her back, looked at Mo Lan on his right, and asked with a stern face:
"Mo'er, you are the elder sister, why are you bullying your younger sister?"

Molan was not afraid: "I said she is not as pretty as me, is this not true? Is this considered bullying her? Don't spoil her, or she will become even less self-aware and make a fool of herself by telling others about it!"

Chen Tao groaned and was speechless for a moment.

Minglan cried even louder, clearly hurt by the reaction.

Chen Tao immediately felt "distressed" and defended her seriously:

"Don't talk nonsense. Minglan is indeed a beauty who is no less beautiful than you. Telling others about it will only make me, your husband, look bad."

Molan snorted: "I knew you would say that! I missed you, come to my room and talk with me."

Having said that, he pulled Chen Tao up.

Minglan was not willing to be outdone, and she also took Chen Tao's other hand and said deliberately:

"I miss my husband too! I made a new type of iced tea specially for him. Why don't you come back to the house with me and try it first!"

Before Chen Tao could figure out what to do, Mo Lan snorted and said disdainfully:
"You only know these crooked ways! If you were prettier than me, why would you need iced tea to cool your husband down?"

Minglan sneered, "It seems that you really want to compete? Sure, we will use our own methods later to see who can make the husband's heart move the most! Whoever loses will feed the other person tonight. Do you dare?"

Molan was full of confidence: "How can I be afraid of you?"

The two sisters' eyes met, and there seemed to be pink lightning and the void exploded.

Chen Tao interrupted at this time: "I have promised Yuanyuan that I will play chess with her."

The two sisters pretended not to hear, one walked over to close the door, and the other pulled him straight into the inner room.

Through Ruomei's news, Minglan has confirmed Yuanyuan's threat, but she only thought that she would be a favored concubine. It was impossible for her to imagine that Chen Tao planned to make her a permanent concubine.

A prostitute who has turned over a new leaf wants to become a legal wife. Do you think you are also a time traveler like Lady Liuli or Queen Jing'an? You must be kidding!

Despite this, you should try to let your husband pamper the other person less.

After a while, Minglan, the gossipy girl, brought up the serious matter:
"I heard from the old lady that my eldest brother was going to be sent out. The place was poor and remote, and my wife was worried about my eldest brother, so she couldn't help but make a fuss. The old lady scolded her and asked my eldest sister-in-law to go with my eldest brother."

Chen Tao said, "My mother-in-law didn't ask my wife to stay and serve her parents-in-law?"

Minglan wiped her sweat and said, "What she said is useless."

Molan groaned: "Will what I say work?"

Minglan pinched her and said, "I only listen to my husband!"

Molan covered her stomach with one hand and fought back with the other.

Chen Tao smiled and said, "If you ask me, my mother-in-law is better. She knows how to find a concubine for her own son."

Not only did Wang want to find an ugly wife who was said to be out of her social status for Sheng Changfeng, the son born to Lin Yi Niang, she also wanted to take control of Hai, the wife of her own son.

Then the question is, although Sheng Changbai also slept with the maid, he was "not interested in women" and only cared about Hai, so what should she do?

If a cow doesn't drink water, why force it into her son's arms by pressing its head? She has done it before, but it didn't work. Instead, she gave the woman she sent to her husband! Therefore, this time of sending her out is a good opportunity.

As long as Hai can be kept, why should you be worried that your son will not touch women or cause trouble?

It’s a pity that there’s a damn old hag sitting on top of her who ruins her plans every time!

Holy shit, this is outrageous!
As for the fact that their husband thought their mother-in-law was good, the two sisters reacted with anger and disapproval, saying that he should learn from his elder brother-in-law Sheng Changbai.

Chen Tao shook his head: "I'm not that cruel! Not only did he sleep with her, but he also refused to give her a name and forced her to drink drugs. I can't do such a thing."

Mo Lan was speechless.

Her mother is her aunt. If she says that this is right, then her mother deserves to be bullied by Wang?

Minglan was also silent, even though she felt that if it were her, she would also be happy to see her husband do this for her. She thought it was normal for maids in ancient times to have such experiences, and that as a mistress, no matter how she was treated, it would not be excessive.

But the problem is that she is not the legal wife.

She couldn't show her cruel and cold-blooded side in front of her kind husband, so she could only say indifferently:
"Brother and sister-in-law really treated Yanghao too much. We can't learn from them. Either we don't sleep with them, or we have to take responsibility if we do."

Chen Tao sighed, "Sister, are you blaming me for being too sentimental? That's right, I really have no right to say that about my brother-in-law."

In Molan's book, there was a cuckold who forced women into her husband's arms. She immediately hugged Chen Tao's arm and said:

"What's wrong with a man having three wives and four concubines? Isn't my father the same? If my husband is wrong, then my father is also wrong? People like my eldest brother, who did it but refused to admit it, have no right to accuse my husband of being promiscuous!"

You are such a filial daughter!

Minglan secretly complained, and also generously agreed: "That's right!"

She usually doesn't blame men, but only blames other women for being vixens, or laughs at them for being little girls who don't have her ability to give birth to a son.

What a good man, but he was led astray by you dirty, shameless vixens!

If I could go back to the modern era, I would probably open a women's virtue class to teach my sisters and impart advanced feudal ideas.

She was unable to marry Gu Er, and she heard that Gu Er now had a dance troupe, and her husband might have gone out to play a lot, so she blamed Gu Er for leading her husband astray, and at the same time she was glad that she did not marry Gu Er!

She had no idea that this dance troupe was the suggestion of her good husband.

Actor Chen was "touched" and said, "What more could I ask for as a husband to have two such virtuous wives? God has been very kind to me!"

Molan kissed him and corrected him:
"Husband! Don't talk nonsense. Where did you get two good wives? I am your only good wife!"

In an instant, the beacon fire was lit again!
Minglan said angrily, "You are not worthy of the word virtuous! I arranged for people to run those shops, what did you do? All you know is eating, drinking and sleeping, like a sow."

Isn't it just a personal attack?
Who the hell doesn’t know how to do this!
Molan spread out his right hand and said sarcastically:
"How can my delicate jade fingers look like pig's trotters? My dear sister, are you jealous again? Don't be jealous. It's okay to be jealous of others, but you can't be too jealous of your own sister!"

Minglan clenched her fists and gritted her teeth:
"Stinky sister, do you believe that I broke your chicken claw?"

Molan was not afraid, of course, and said:
"Little hoof, why don't you give it a try? Even if you have stronger hands than me, I still have a good pair of teeth to deal with you! Although I don't like to chew on braised pork elbows and trotters as much as you do, it must taste good to eat them occasionally."

Minglan was so angry that she was about to smoke. Suddenly, her eyes rolled, and she reached out and tapped between her toes a few times. Then, in front of Molan's confused look, she quickly and slowly put her hand to her lips.

Molan shuddered and quickly hid backwards.

Minglan said disdainfully, "Bite it? Why don't you dare to bite it? Your pig tongue is so good at bullying my sister, but you don't dare to bite it at the last minute. What's the point of having it? Why not cut it off and let me stew it with wine!"

Molan couldn't help it: "Hey~Are you disgusting? Take it away!"

If it were in the comics, then a materialized lingering smell might appear on Minglan's hand.

"I'm disgusting? You..."

Minglan was furious and was about to seek justice from her husband, but she saw Chen Tao lying on the side with his head covered, his shoulders twitching, and he was trying hard to hold back his laughter.

She was so angry that she punched the guy hard on the butt.

Molan was immediately dissatisfied: "Can you be more considerate? My husband is tired and wants to take a nap, can't he?"

As he said this, he also picked between his toes.

In this way, he reached a terrifying nuclear balance with Minglan. He did not dare to use force easily and continued to talk.

After a while, a few maids came in to bring fruit tea and cakes, but Chen Tao naturally continued to take his nap.

In the west ear room.

Ruomei breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she was still reluctant to be Chen Tao's concubine at this time, Chen Tao was not Gu Er, who would not even ride a mare. He always wanted to be close to her, which made her upset and sometimes she had wild thoughts and even wavered.

Seeing this, Yuanyuan deliberately said, "Are you thinking about him? What's the point of just thinking about him? You have to take action and seduce him actively. Don't care about your face. Once you have the chance, you should drag him to the garden next door, use the ground as your mat and the sky as your blanket, and let the sun and the moon act as matchmakers to make things happen directly."

Ruomei blushed: "I, I didn't think about the Fourth Master!"

Yuanyuan laughed: "Did I tell you who he is? You confessed it yourself! She said she would never be a concubine, but once a man coaxes her, she will forget everything! You have to remember that men's words are lies, you can't trust them."

Ruomei may look gentle and charming, but she is also quite strong-willed. However, she was so embarrassed that she denied it: "I really don't like the Fourth Master."

Yuanyuan snorted softly, "Yeah, you don't like him, you just occasionally give him some rouge."

She lowered her head and started to cry.

Yuanyuan felt a little regretful. She was the one being NTrued in front of everyone, but she had to comfort the person who was NTruing herself. She really wanted to give that guy a scumbag correction punch!

In fact, it was because of her many details of leniency towards the servants and her fake suspicion of Chen Tao that Ruomei developed a great liking for Chen Tao and became devoted to her. As for Minglan, she could just fool him.

After comforting her, Yuanyuan asked Ruomei to massage her shoulders, and then began to teach Ruomei some practical things.

What if someone did something stupid and really fulfilled his promise to help her win a title and find a way to make her his legal wife, and she couldn't travel back to the modern era by then, then she would have to prepare a team in advance.

What else can we do?

Looking for a loyal man to marry? It's not that you can't find one, but most men can't afford to take concubines.

But Yuanyuan didn't want to look for it.

If we have no common language, we might as well just hang ourselves.

Living alone?
Wang was worried that Sheng Changbai would encounter thieves when he was sent out, so she asked Sheng Hong to come to the Liang family to find some capable guards. Could she, a woman who only knew a little bit of martial arts, really wander around and do whatever she wanted like Madam Liuli?
Having followed Chen Tao for so long, Yuanyuan has clearly realized that it is a fool's dream to always use the so-called Great Zhou Law as an excuse, to think that everything will be fine as long as you live within the rules, and to be able to do anything just by talking. (End of this chapter)
