The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

225 Madam Qin’s Disillusionment

An old woman with a kind face walked into the house and said to Madam Qin, “Madam, look, Master has left again. Why don’t you soften up?”

“Aunt Qin, his heart isn’t with me.” Madam Qin sat in front of the bronze mirror dejectedly. She parted her hair and looked at her aging face. She sat there in a daze for a long time; her heart felt as dead as ashes. A legitimate marriage couldn’t even compare to what he has with a concubine from a brothel! Forget it! She would let him do whatever he wanted. She would just take care of her own children. She saw no point in inviting disdain by interfering in other people’s business.

When County Lieutenant Yu arrived at Yang Meiniang’s house, she welcomed him happily. “Master, come and have some hangover soup. I’ve already cooked it and it’s been warming in the pot!”

County Lieutenant Yu looked at the gentle Yang Meiniang and sat down in satisfaction. Yang Meiniang eagerly brought over the hangover soup and handed it to him. She said gently, “Master, you have a headache every time you drink. I’ll give you a massage!”

“Alright, give me a massage.” County Lieutenant Yu drank the hangover soup in one gulp and leaned back in his chair to enjoy Aunt Yang’s little service. He narrowed his eyes and said to Yang Meiniang, “Meiniang, tell Yan’er not to send pastries to the county office in the future. Once they’re done, just wait for me to come back and eat them. Don’t let people laugh at my daughter for showing her face!”

Yang Meiniang was stunned for a moment again. “Master, I know that my background is not honorable, causing Yan’er and Cheng Yi to be unable to raise their heads.” Aunt Yang walked to County Lieutenant Yu and knelt down in tears to beg, “Master, please tell Madam to record the two children in her name and give them a good background.”

County Lieutenant Yu looked at Yang Meiniang’s teary face and pulled her up into his arms with heartache. “If they’re all in Madam’s name. What will you do?”

Yang Meiniang leaned into County Lieutenant Yu’s arms and stroked his thick chest. She whispered, “As long as the children and Master are well, it’s worth it even if I die.”

“Alright, I’ll tell Madam.” County Lieutenant Yu looked down at the gentle Yang Meiniang and carried her to the bed.

After County Lieutenant Yu and Yang Meiniang rested, Madam Qin learned from the old woman in Yang Meiniang’s room that County Lieutenant Yu had promised Yang Meiniang to record the children under her name. Madam Qin endured her anger and asked Aunt Qin to hand a pouch to the old woman. She praised the old woman and said, “Well done. I won’t treat you badly.”

“Thank you, Madam!” The old woman happily took the pouch and went back to guard Yang Meiniang’s door.

Aunt Qin said angrily, “Madam, that bitch is eyeing your dowry.”

Madam Qin sat on the chair and sneered. “Aunt Qin, look at him. He still hasn’t changed. He forgot how he got to where he is today after sleeping with that bitch. Bitch! Did you want to record your two lowly bastards under my name? Dream on!”

“Madam, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have persuaded you to come to Qingchuan with Master.”

“It’s none of your business. I’m the one who’s unwilling to let her take over and pretend to be the legitimate Madam.”

County Lieutenant Yu got up from the bed in high spirits and went to Madam Qin’s house. Seeing that Madam Qin was still asleep, he scolded, “Madam, it’s already late in the morning. Why aren’t you taking care of the family matters?”

Madam Qin sneered in her heart. If he and that bitch had just woken up, why should she wake up before dawn?

Madam Qin sat up and said, “Master, why aren’t you going to the county office? Why are you looking for me?” County Lieutenant Yu sat on the edge of Madam Qin’s bed and smiled as he held her hand. Madam Qin endured her disgust and retracted her hand. “Does Master have something to say?”

County Lieutenant Yu looked at Madam Qin in surprise. “Madam, you also know that Yang Meiniang’s background is not good. I want to discuss with you and see if you can put Yan’er and Yi’er under your name.”

Madam Qin got out of bed and put on her dress. She sat in front of the bronze mirror and said indifferently, “Master, I have children. I don’t need others’ children to be registered under my name.”

County Lieutenant Yu persuaded, “Yan’er and Yi’er are also our children. How can they be someone else’s?”

“They are your children with that bitch, not mine.”

County Lieutenant Yu said angrily, “Don’t be unreasonable. I’ll write to the elders in the clan and ask them to put the children in your name!”

Madam Qin said indifferently, “Do whatever you want. I’ll write to my brother later and tell him that you and I will split the assets!”

When County Lieutenant Yu heard Madam Qin mention his elder brother, he panicked. He walked up to Madam Qin and begged in a low voice, “Madam, everything can be discussed. Don’t let Brother-in-law know. With his bad temper, he will definitely rush to Qingchuan immediately. At that time, our colleagues in the county office will laugh at our family.”

Madam Qin waited for Aunt Qin to help comb her hair. She stood up and glanced at County Lieutenant Yu. “As long as you don’t disgust me with that bitch, we’ll live like this. Also, from today onwards, you’ll be responsible for that bitch and her children’s food and clothes. Don’t think that I’ll help you raise them with my dowry. My dowry is for my children. If you want the dowry and family assets, earn them yourself.”

County Lieutenant Yu said awkwardly, “Madam, we’re husband and wife. Why do you have to be so clear about it?”

“Why can’t I differentiate?! If I don’t do that, will you still have anything to do with me? I’m not that stupid! If Master has nothing to do, I’m going to eat.”

County Lieutenant Yu looked at Madam Qin’s back and felt that something was different. He thought in frustration that it was just a concubine. Why did she have to fuss about it?!

Yang Meiniang was behind the window of the room. When she saw County Lieutenant Yu coming out of the main room and going out, she knew that Madam Qin had not agreed. She went out in frustration and walked towards the main hall. Seeing Madam Qin eating with her two daughters, she held her waist and walked in. She said coquettishly, “Madam, please forgive me. I woke up late.”

Madam Qin didn’t even look at her. She took the handkerchief from the old woman and wiped her mouth. She said to her two daughters, “Are you done eating? If you’re done, let’s go out for a walk.”

Yu Xin looked at Madam Qin happily. “Mother, are we really going on a trip?” Yu Hui also looked at Madam Qin happily. Madam Qin nodded. “You must be bored to death being cooped up at home every day! Bring the kite your uncle bought for you. We’ll fly it.”

“Sister, let’s go back to the house to get the kite.” Yang Meiniang watched the mother and daughters walk out the door happily holding hands. She curled her lips and said to the old woman standing at the side, “Set up the meal! Call Third Miss and Young Master over for our meal.”

The old woman looked at Yang Meiniang and curled her lips. “I’m sorry, Madam Yang. Madam just instructed this morning that you, Third Miss, and Young Master won’t be eating on the stove anymore. You have to get your food and clothes from Master.”

Yang Meiniang shouted, “Are you trying to rebel?! I’m also the mistress of this family. Why can’t I eat the food in the house? I’m asking Master to sell you.”
