MTL - After Giving Way To My Husband’s Sweetheart-Chapter 144 irritable
Sima Zhengren is currently the hussar general of the Great Zhou Dynasty and serves as the chief soldier of the imperial court. He can be said to be in charge of the military power of the world.
He left the mansion and was escorted by his personal guards to the office.
At his position, he is busy with political affairs every day, especially now that there are many heroes vying for the throne and rebellions continue in various places. As the commander-in-chief, Sima Zhengren naturally has no time to spare.
The two brothers Sima Zhengde and Sima Zhengren are both diligent people. Otherwise, the Sima family would not have reached today's glorious situation.
But Sima Zhengren, who had always been diligent in political affairs, was a little out of shape today. He finished a few important things and returned to the mansion early.
Sima Zhengren thought about what his son said to him this morning for a whole day. When he thought about it carefully, he realized that something was indeed wrong with his wife.
He personally took her back and restored her status as his wife. Sima Zhengren couldn't figure out why his wife was still unhappy.
In the eyes of Sima Zhengren, the women in his back house were only divided into two categories. One was his wife, and the rest were just dispensable women.
Having said this, if Sima Zhengren still can't understand, then there is something wrong with his brain. As a military general, he is just a straight man. As the commander-in-chief of the world, there is no way that he has something wrong with his brain.
Sima Zhengren couldn't help but feel blocked again.
Sima Zhengren was walking out with a cold face when he happened to meet Xie who was coming towards him.
With a smile on her face, Ms. Xie stepped forward and invited her: "Since the general is not busy today, why not go and sit with me? I just got some good tea and I want to share it with you."
The Luo family here had just made their master unhappy, and the Xie family in the east courtyard got the news. After all, she had been in charge of the family for several years, and she still had many confidants.
Before leaving the imperial court, Mrs. Xie was in trouble because of everything. Therefore, although she was Sima Zhengren's concubine, she was two years older than Sima Zhengren. In addition, she had always had evil intentions and her face was born from her heart. Although Ms. Xie was not yet He is forty, but his face looks old and mean.
But Xie has always been unwilling to give in. He deceived himself into thinking that Sima Zhengren treated her differently.
His wife is a virtuous man, and his mother has always liked her. He has been away at war all year round, and she used to go to his mother every day to fulfill her filial piety.
The madam smiled and said with a loving look on her face: "Your wife is back, I'm happy, she is with me, that's enough." After saying that, the old man took his daughter-in-law's hand, looked at his son again, and said, "But It's good for you to stay in the house for a while now. Jiajia has just come back, so you can spend more time with her when you have time."
What Luo doesn't care about, there are always others who would like it.
Seeing that the master was displeased, the servant wife hurriedly replied: "Madam has gone to pay her respects to Madam Tai. Madam has not seen Madam for a while, so she has been keeping Madam in Luo'an Hall to talk."
Luo Shi was also quite surprised. She raised her eyes and glanced at her husband and replied, "It's just a small talk with my mother."
When the wife saw her son, she stood up slightly and greeted him, "You came home early today."
Luo Shi knew his temperament, so he simply spoke more straightforwardly.
When Mingming first came in, he saw her talking and laughing with her mother.
Whenever he sets foot in the back house, these women are eager to welcome him. Now after hearing his wife's euphemistic eviction order, Sima Zhengren was not sure what she meant.
Sima Zhengren was not a man who loved his children. He had many female relatives in his house, and the women had always been obedient and courteous to him. In the past, the Luo family was not as courteous as other concubines, but she was also very docile. Now Sima Zhengren only realized this change in his wife after being reminded by his son. For some reason, this made him a little inexplicably irritable.
After hearing what his mother said, Sima Zhengren twitched his lips in embarrassment and replied: "We are already an old couple, so there is no need to be so fussy. As a man, I should focus on political affairs."
When Mrs. Xie saw Sima Zhengren, she hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and saluted, and asked in a low voice: "Where are you going, general?"
Seventy-nine. One-sixty-nine. Sixty-nine. One-hundred and fifty
Don't forget that after Sima Zhengren demoted the Luo family as a concubine, he made the Xie family the main wife. However, he did this because the Xie family had the strongest family power among the concubines. He was just trying to win over the Xie family. That's all. As for affection, there is no difference between Sima Zhengren's treatment of the Xie family and the other concubines in the back house.
When Sima Zhengren entered Luo'an Hall, he saw his wife and mother chatting animatedly. The wife took Luo Shi to sit on the soft couch. The wife leaned on the soft pillow, and Luo Shi sat next to her. Although they were mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, they were intimate. They look like mother and daughter.
It seems that he is overthinking it. Otherwise, why would she go to his mother to fulfill her filial piety as soon as she comes back?
Sima Zhengren returned to the house and went straight to his wife's main courtyard. He strode into the house quickly, but did not see his wife. He became more and more irritable, and his tone when asking the servants in the house was cold.
Over the years, Mr. Xie has figured out Luo's temperament, and he is just waiting to take advantage of every opportunity. When she got the news, she immediately left the yard.
Sima Zhengren turned around and left the house, heading towards Luo'antang.
Jiajia is the diminutive character of Luo family.
Sima Zhengren's face immediately darkened. He snorted heavily, swung his sleeves in anger, turned around and left neatly.
Sima Zhengren smiled this time and said, "I'm not busy today, so I went home early to spend more time with my mother."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, even he was a little surprised.
Sima Zhengren reacted for a long time. He frowned and asked, "What do you mean, madam?"
Only then did Luo Shi react. She stood up and gave a slight salute to the Madam. She also gave instructions to the servants in the house to take care of the old man, and then slowly left the house. Sima Zhengren quickly raised his legs to follow his wife. He walked beside her, glanced at her still calm expression, and said, "What were you talking about to your mother just now?"
He raised his eyes and glanced at Mrs. Xie, and said impatiently: "I want to go to the study."
Sima Zhengren had a smile on his face unconsciously.
Although Sima Zhengren said this, he kept glancing at his wife sitting at the table from the corner of his eye, but Luo Shi didn't talk to her, and even looked at her with a stingy look, looking indifferent.
Sima Zhengren suddenly felt at ease when he heard that his wife was at his mother's place.
Sima Zhengren didn't say anything more, and walked all the way to the main courtyard with his wife. When they reached the door, Luo suddenly stopped and said to Sima Zhengren: "I have been with my mother for most of the day, and I am a little tired. I I want to go back home and rest for a while.”
"I'm tired and want to rest for a while. I can't serve the general. For fear of neglect, I invite the general to go sit with his sister."
It can be seen that she still regards him as heavenly as before.
Sima Zhengren raised his eyes and glanced at Mr. Xie, and he couldn't help but think of the years when his wife was demoted and she occupied the magpie's nest. This made Sima Zhengren even more disgusted with Mr. Xie.
Although he was responsible for all this, people rarely see their own faults, especially a conceited man like Sima Zhengren.
With a cold face, he vented all the grievances he had just suffered from his wife to Mr. Xie: "You must remember your duty. As a concubine, you should just stay in the house and be quiet. Don't come out." You are just wandering around, and don’t bother me by coming to me when you have nothing to do.”
