My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 406: Fearing that the Madam Has a Future
"……this……"

Lord Gu responded in a daze.

Lieutenant General Jin simply threw it all out, saying, "To be honest with you, my Lord, as the saying goes, every family has its own problems. The tigress in my family used to ride on my neck and shit when she was young. She is the boss of the family. If I want to live a peaceful life, I have no choice but to learn to admit defeat."

Gu Jinghui didn’t know what to say: “…”

I really didn't expect that General Jin had such a status in the family.

His little wife would never treat him like this.

As soon as he thought of this, Gu Jinghui wanted to speak, but since Admiral Jin had already started, he couldn't help but want to have a good talk with Lord Gu.

"Over the years, I have not been able to tell anyone about this. The tigress at home is too powerful. If I don't use this trick, she will not stop. Matters between husband and wife cannot get bigger and bigger. One of them has to give in, right? A fire in the backyard is the worst thing to do."

"My Lord, think about it. We can use military tactics to deal with her, but that is my wife, a person who sleeps in the same bed with me. When she was young, she loved me deeply and entrusted her life to me. No matter how heartless I am, I cannot betray her. It is okay to admit my mistakes and be submissive. Only the couple knows about it behind closed doors. I only revealed my shortcomings for your own good."

This earnest exhortation made Lord Gu even more confused.

Lord Gu asked: "But the book you showed me before..."

"That's all my experience in coaxing women over the years," Admiral Jin said quickly, "Every word is from the heart, and it's the truth."

Lord Gu frowned suspiciously: "If it really works, why do you still..."

Lieutenant General Jin said shyly, "I used the information in that book when my wife was young. Now that my wife is old, I use it to please others. If my wife is unhappy, I will have to resort to the ultimate trick. Otherwise, how can I achieve harmony between my wife and concubine?"

"……I see……"

Lord Gu fell into deep thought.

With all his secrets exposed, Admiral Jin no longer had any scruples, and spoke to Lord Gu from the bottom of his heart: "Madam doesn't like me taking a concubine, but I am a great man after all, and I have to work hard to make a career. I can't just live with one woman. Besides, there are always some young ladies who like me, and I don't want everyone. I rejected all those I could, but there are some that I can't refuse, those who are particularly pleasing, good-looking, and can't live without me..."

"That's why they say it's the hardest to accept the favor of a beauty. If you marry a beauty, the wife at home will naturally be unhappy. I kneel down and show my submission, which also means that the tigress is still the most powerful in the family and no one can surpass her. This way, the wife and concubine can get along well."

These profound truths made Lord Gu admire them to the core.

"Admiral Jin is indeed flexible!"

It seems that in order to take a concubine and maintain harmony between his wife and concubine, Brigadier General Jin knelt on the ground and slapped himself in the face many times.

Thinking of himself kneeling on the ground and slapping Qin Yuan in the face, Lord Gu couldn't help but shudder.

To please your wife, you must be able to bend and stretch.

but……

What he did hasn't reached that level yet.

If I took a concubine...

Will Yuan'er be sad?
Or will you still think of ways to torment him?
She is a vengeful person and will never let him go just by kneeling down.

All in all, Admiral Jin's approach is useless.

Seeing that he couldn't find a solution from Brigadier General Jin, Lord Gu was a little discouraged, but seeing Brigadier General Jin was so sincere, Lord Gu could only say, "What you said makes sense. I will think about it carefully."

Admiral Jin was anxious: "My Lord, why are you still hesitating? If you want to coax her, you should do it sooner rather than later. A woman is just a little angry, and you can make her happy with just a few words. If you delay, her anger will grow day by day. When it accumulates into a big temper, I don't know how much caution and gold and silver you will have to pay to coax her back. If I were to say, my Lord, you can't be soft, so you have to use force. A woman like my wife who is beautiful and capable of managing a household should be treated with all your strength." Lord Gu immediately said: "Okay, I got it. I got it."

Brigadier General Jin talked a lot before leaving.

After leaving the tent, Brigadier General Jin's face became stern, and every beard on his cheeks exuded a solemn atmosphere.

When others saw this, they thought that Lord Gu had entrusted him with some important task.

The military officer who was waiting outside for an audience asked hurriedly, "How is your mood now, Lord? Is it convenient for us to come in and talk?"

Admiral Jin shook his furry head and said, "It should be fine now."

The soldier looked at Admiral Jin with admiration, gave him a thumbs up and said, "It has to be you."

"Ah..." Admiral Jin sighed and said, "I have also put a lot of thought into this for you, Lord..."

The soldier smiled and complimented: "It is worthy of the Marquis' trust in you."

Brigadier General Jin whistled triumphantly, waved his hand, and walked away swaying.

The military officer entered the tent, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Lord Marquis."

Lord Gu looked up from the documents in his hand, glanced at him, and said, "From today on, you will be the first to select five soldiers to follow me in the imperial court. You should keep an eye on them. This time, officials from the six ministries will be cooperating. If there is anything, report it to me immediately."

The military officer agreed and said, "Why not call in more people and look after them all like in the main camp?"

Lord Gu thought for a moment and said, "We don't know what they are going to do yet. We'll use courtesy first and then force. That's why I asked you to keep a closer eye on them."

The officer puffed out his chest and said solemnly, "I understand. I will select the candidate immediately and he will be available tomorrow."

Lord Gu stood up and walked out.

"That's great. Let's see what time it is. It's time for me to go back home for my medicinal bath. My wife is still waiting for me."

The soldier turned around and followed Lord Gu: "...I obey your command..."

Lord Gu took two steps, then turned sideways and asked, "Are you afraid of your wife?"

The soldier didn't know whether to say he was afraid or not, so he stammered, "Well... not bad."

Lord Gu said earnestly, "You still have to be afraid. Only by being afraid can your wife have a future. If you don't believe me, go ask Lieutenant General Jin."

After saying "Oh", the confused soldier suddenly asked, "Is the Marquis afraid of the Madam?"

"Afraid," Lord Gu immediately replied proudly.

It seems that being afraid of the lady is a great thing.

The soldier scratched his head and said hurriedly, "In fact, I am afraid too. I have been in the army for a long time and rarely go home. All the affairs at home are handled by my wife. She is a child bride raised by my parents. She is three years older than me. When I was a child, she often controlled me and even beat me with a firewood stick until I cried."

"You are so lucky. Just be afraid of her and respect her."

Lord Gu left a few words and hurried out, as if he couldn't stay for a moment.

The military officer followed him out of the tent, muttering in confusion, "Everyone says the Marquis is not good enough, is that true? The family is weak, so why shouldn't the hens crow? But why is the Marquis not ashamed, but proud of it? Is this how the Marquis tries to please him? He is such a ruthless man!"
