Chapter 11 The male protagonist is a cousin

Gu Wenjing was a little impatient when he looked at Cheng Yuhua's pretty face without makeup because of pregnancy and was repeatedly stuffed with women. However, considering that she was a pregnant woman now, he still suppressed his anger and said in a plain voice: "I said no, you should take care of your baby well, don't think too much." It's just a year of self-cultivation, and he doesn't have to take a concubine for a while.

After thinking about it, Gu Wenjing patted the back of her hand comfortably: "If you can give birth to a legitimate son, then I don't need to take a concubine, you don't have to do this."

Gu Wenjing knew that he could legally have three wives and four concubines through the ancient Marquis's princess, but he was not a person who liked beauty. It would be bad if he had a fire in his backyard after taking a concubine. Therefore, unless Cheng Yuhua, the wife of Cheng Yuhua, failed to give birth to a legitimate son, he did not plan to take a concubine to give birth to a concubine.

In order to make Cheng Yuhua feel at ease while pregnant, Gu Wenjing said his thoughts directly.

When Cheng Yuhua heard this, she was happy at first, but then she felt that her idea was wrong and she didn't let her husband take a concubine. Wouldn't she be jealous? Moreover, in the eyes of outsiders, her husband would be labeled as a fearful person, which would ruin his husband's reputation.

And if her husband regrets it in the future and wants to take a concubine, and instead says that she is jealous and has never been able to take a concubine, wouldn't she have ruined her reputation and become a joke?

So she said again: "Husband, it is your duty to take care of these for you. I am not a jealous person. If you have a favorite candidate, tell me and accept it."

The more Gu Wenjing heard the expression, the colder he looked. In the end, he couldn't suppress the unhappiness in his heart and said unhappy: "I said I don't need to take a concubine!"

Cheng Yuhua was shocked when he saw him so unhappy for the first time and didn't dare to say anything else.

Gu Wenjing no longer mentioned this matter, everything seemed to have returned to its former peace.

However, after this incident, Gu Wenjing still came home on time after get off work and did not take a concubine. He had dinner with Cheng Yuhua every day and cared about her body. But there was something between the two, faint, but after careful consideration, he felt that Gu Wenjing was no different from before.

Cheng Yuhua felt uncomfortable. She didn't understand what she had done wrong. She obviously thought about him everywhere, so why did his attitude change vaguely?

But when she complained to her mother, Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Cheng felt that she was in a blessing: "Wand Jing couldn't treat you? You had to accept a precious concubine to make things difficult for you. Wen Jing has never touched that woman so far. Now that you are pregnant, you have not taken any other concubines, you are the only one. What else are you not satisfied with?"

Cheng Yuhua was speechless. Could it be that she wanted to tell her mother that her husband treated her as always, but she just felt that her husband's attitude had become wrong? Even though he was by her every day and had never touched other women, his tone of speaking to her was gentle, and he respected her opinions on anything on weekdays, but she just felt that his attitude towards her was a little different from before.

But she couldn't tell what the specific difference was. In the end, Cheng Yuhua could only attribute it to her being sensitive and thinking too much after she became pregnant.

Cheng Yuhua said unwillingly: "But mother, don't you say that men's promises cannot be trusted. If your husband wants to take a concubine in the future, what should he do if his daughter?"

Mrs. Cheng reached out and pointed her forehead, and said with a grudge: "You silly girl, I just said I can't believe it all! Anyway, don't think stupidly that he will only guard you for the rest of his life. No matter whether he really doesn't want to take a concubine or pretend to behave, you can take the opportunity to seize this time to have two more legitimate sons and gain a foothold. Even if he wants to take a concubine in the future, he will not be able to shake your position."

Cheng Yuhua touched her belly that had been more than two months ago and said expectantly: "I don't know if this child is a man or a woman, it would be great if he could defeat the man in one fell swoop."

Mrs. Cheng looked at her belly with a smile in her eyes: "You are still young. Even if your first child is not a boy, you can still continue to give birth, bloom first and bear fruit."

Cheng Yuhua nodded slightly, but she still wanted a boy in her heart. Only by giving birth to the eldest son could she gain a foothold in the Hou's Mansion.

She thought of what Gu Wenjing said to her that day, that he had no intention of taking a concubine if she could give birth to a legitimate son. Even though she knew that the man might regret his words at any time, she was very conflicted, but Cheng Yuhua was still looking forward to it.

Because the child in Cheng Yuhua's belly is the eldest grandson or granddaughter of the third generation of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion, he is highly valued. The rewards from Ningyuan Marquis and Yuan are all sent like water, and Gu Wenjing is also very concerned.

However, no matter how much Gu Wenjing cares about his first child in his life, he was promoted to the fifth-rank doctor of the Ministry of Revenue by the priest. When he arrived at the new department, he had many things to do, so he went out early and returned late on weekdays.

Both the Marquis of Ningyuan and Gu Wenjing and his son were busy. The New Year is approaching, and the mother of the Marquis of Ningyuan are also very busy, busy preparing New Year's Eves and handling various affairs in the mansion during the New Year.

The older girl from a illegitimate family was also married and was about to get married. Yuan was busy teaching her to learn from the housekeeper, and the second girl also learned from the other side. The third girl was still young and could be relaxed faster.

Gu Wenjing's gangster Gu Shaoping was sixteen years old. When he got married, he was so cowardly and incompetent that he was not a good student. He has not even passed the exam and is also a concubine. He is also a gangster. He will not be able to inherit his title in the future and will not get much property after the separation. Therefore, Gu Shaoping's marriage is really difficult to find.

Yuan didn't want to care about the concubine's son at all, but this was her legitimate mother's responsibility. She could only choose the right legitimate woman from a lower family background.

As for the concubine's daughter Yuan, who has a similar family background, she has never considered it. After all, as her stepmother, she is the most aware of the situation of the concubine's daughter of a large family. She either raises the softest like the eldest girl in the mansion, or raises the ambition of being as tall as the second girl.

The wife who was worthy of Gu Shaoping was too weak. She was worried that the couple would be as weak as they were, and that they would be bullied after leaving the house and would implicate her son. But if she was worthy of a concubine who was more than a benefactor, she was afraid that Gu Shaoping would be implicated by his wife to compete for family property with her son, and she would not want to raise the deposed concubine's son to become restless again.

Therefore, the best choice is to have a lower family background. The legitimate daughter in the family is generally well educated. At that time, the legitimate daughter will be divided into two groups and let their family live peacefully and not cause trouble for her son.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

During the Chinese New Year, because of the high status of Ningyuan Hou and the emperor's heart, he was qualified to attend the banquet held by the emperor. He brought his wife Yuan and his five children and daughter-in-law to the palace to attend the banquet.

Although the emperor is kind to this palace banquet and allows officials who can attend the family to attend, even the family has different levels. The seats with official positions are different from those without official positions, and the seats with legitimate descendants and illegitimate descendants are not together.

Therefore, the four concubines in the Marquis' Mansion were not qualified to have a seat with Gu Wenjing, who had an official position, and could only sit outside the hall and have a palace banquet with the princes and ladies in other palaces.

Gu Wenjing could take Cheng Yuhua to sit in the hall. Although there were many big men in the hall, he could only sit in the back seat for the time being, and he couldn't even see the appearance of the emperor clearly, but being able to sit in this position at such a young age is already a young hero.

Gu Wenjing was sitting next to him with colleagues from the Ministry of Revenue, so Cheng Yuhua also sat with his colleague's wives. The women started chatting softly. Seeing that Cheng Yuhua was pregnant, the wives who had given birth to children were much older than her, they talked about the taboos of pregnant women and their children.

Hearing this, Cheng Yuhua couldn't help but touch his abdomen, and he was looking forward to the birth of the child in his heart.

While chatting happily, a wife suddenly said in a stiff tone: "Mrs. Gu is this first child? It is best to have a son for the first child, otherwise it will be unstable. Not only will the man's heart be snatched by the concubine, but even the mother-in-law will not be able to help but stuff a concubine to the man."
