Chapter 348 What Do Concubines Do?

After Matchmaker Wang finished speaking, Zhao Youcai and others were silent for a while.

The scene was a little quiet for a moment, and all eyes stopped on Zhao Ce.

Everyone pricked up their ears, waiting for Zhao Ce to make a decision.

Zhao Ce also sighed softly in his heart.

People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. There is no way to avoid this.

Especially for a student like him who came from a poor family in the mountains and valleys, he would be favored by many people wherever he went.

Last time, Chief Xu took advantage of the fact that he had discussed a marriage with him before he was admitted as a scholar.

I didn’t expect that this second time would come so soon.

And as those people have said, while I am at home, I guess there will definitely be no shortage of matchmakers.

However, these matchmakers only received the wedding money to perform their work, and there was no need for him to vent his anger on them.

Zhao Ce thought for a while, took out a red seal from his body, and handed it directly to Matchmaker Wang.

"Auntie, I'm going to Fucheng to study in a few days. I don't have time to think about taking a concubine. Please refuse it for me."

These matchmakers are diligent in protecting matchmakers, just for the sake of reputation and money.

What Zhao Ce gave her was definitely higher than the wedding money she got for a single marriage.

Matchmaker Wang saw another red envelope and quickly reached out to take it.

After pinching it, there was actually a broken piece of silver inside.

The smile on her face immediately became more sincere. Zhao Ce, who had the best eyesight, could even see the pink on her pleats falling down when she smiled.

"I see, Mr. Zhao is really interested in studying, and the young lady's family is not so lucky."

"Auntie will go back to their house now. Mr. Zhao, you just have to study in peace."

Zhao Ce smiled and said: "This is the best. If there are other families who ask Auntie for your help during this period, I will ask for your help and refuse them all."

The money Zhao Ce gave was naturally not just for this time.

Those who eat are soft-mouthed and those who take advantage of others are short-handed.

Matchmaker Wang took so much money from Zhao Ce, and seeing that the scholar treated her with great courtesy, she couldn't help but feel even more happy.

"Okay, my aunt will help you with this. I won't bring anyone to disturb you during this period."

After that, she said some happy words again.

Zhao Ce said: "Xiao Fangzi, bring a pair of bowls and chopsticks to Auntie, let Auntie eat before leaving."

Matchmaker Wang took the bowls and chopsticks brought over by Xu Fang and happily joined the feasting party.

Everyone gathered around her, asking for news about the family that wanted to marry into Zhao Ce's family.

But the marriage didn't work out. As a professional matchmaker, Matchmaker Wang naturally wouldn't talk too much.

While stuffing food into her mouth, she said: "Hey, she is a pretty pretty girl anyway."

"That is to say, the conditions at home are not very good, but the vision is high, otherwise I would not want to be a concubine."

Zhao Ce saw that they were chatting and there was nothing of his own to do here, so he turned around and went home.

Although Mrs. Li felt a little pity, she was relieved in her heart.

She turned around, but didn't see Su Cai'er who came out first.

Zhao Ce also glanced behind him.

Didn't the little girl come out just now behind him? Why is there no one there?

Zhao Ce told Li and others to help greet people, and then he went inside the house to look for Su Cai'er.

Su Cai'er was at their original location on the patio, taking fodder to feed Xiao Hei.

After hearing what the matchmaker said just now, she didn't want to hear it anymore.

"You're pretty, your butt is big, you're good at giving birth..."

Su Cai'er pursed her lips and touched Xiao Hei's head while he was chewing grass.

Touching it, he looked down at his belly again.

Does she have any children inside her?

If the husband really takes a concubine by then, will he have to sleep with someone else in the future?

If your husband sleeps with others in the future, will it be impossible for him to have children?

When she thought about her husband going to sleep with someone else in his arms, Su Cai'er felt an uneasy feeling in her heart.

I don’t know if my husband will agree...

Su Cai'er thought of what the young ladies next door said in the city again, and couldn't help but sigh quietly.

After looking at Xiao Hei, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at the location of the old room where they used to live.

It was painted over and turned into a utility room.

Su Cai'er lowered her eyes and thought, if her husband wants to hold someone else to sleep in the future, then she should move back to this room...

There are memories of her and her husband here. She likes this room very much.

But then I thought about it, the room they were sleeping in now was her and her husband's wedding room, how could she let other women sleep in it!

When Su Cai'er thought about it, this became even more uncomfortable.

She sniffed her little nose, and when she was thinking wildly, she saw a large shadow cast next to her.

Su Cai'er raised her little head and saw her husband standing next to her.

Zhao Ce casually threw the fodder in her hand into the cowshed, then took the little girl to the patio, fetched a basin of water, took her hand and put it in together, and slowly started scrubbing.

Soaking her hands in the cool well water, Su Cai'er felt that her mind, which had just been in chaos, seemed to become a little clearer.

"Husband..."

Su Caier raised her eyes and looked at her husband who was squatting on the ground with her.

The husband is very tall, and even if he is squatting, his figure can completely cover him.

Zhao Ce raised his eyes and touched the little girl's eyes with his hand wet with water.

Su Cai'er closed her eyes subconsciously.

Zhao Ce smiled and said, "Would you like to wash your face? Your eye circles look red, which is really pitiful."

After saying that, without waiting for Su Cai'er to answer, he directly pulled aside the cloth Su Cai'er used to wash her face, wetted it with water, and wiped the little girl's face.

Su Cai'er obediently raised her face. After wiping her face, she whispered again: "Husband."

Zhao Ce said "hmm", washed the cloth, and wiped himself.

"how?"

"I didn't cry..."

Su Caier explained in a low voice.

Zhao Ce laughed, put the cloth back to its previous place, and looked down at the little girl squatting in front of him.

He was wearing good clothes, and his face was fair and white, but he was squatting there, a small one, with his head raised, looking at himself with a pair of glass-like eyes.

Zhao Ce ignored her words and pulled her up from the ground.

"Matchmaker Wang is gone."

Su Cai'er glanced at him carefully, obviously caring to death, but she didn't seem to care much and said: "Well, are we going to have a happy event?"

Zhao Ce raised his eyebrows: "A happy event? Isn't it happening now?"

Su Cai'er pursed her small mouth, and the small pear dimples on her face seemed to be full of bitterness.

She finally managed to hold it back: "The husband takes a concubine, a happy event..."

Ever since the little girl told him in Fucheng last time that he would be favored by Miss Fucheng, Zhao Ce knew that something was wrong with the little girl.

Since the matchmakers are here today, I might as well make it clear to her myself.

Zhao Ce asked back: "What do you do with a concubine?"

What does concubinage do?

Su Cai'er moved her lips in confusion, unable to answer for a moment.

Taking a concubine allows one more person in the family to serve the husband, support him, and take care of the housework for him?

Zhao Ce seemed to have understood what she was thinking, and said directly: "What those concubines can do, can't my Cai'er do it?"

Su Cai'er's eyes widened slightly and she seemed a little unresponsive.

Zhao Ce raised his eyebrows and asked again: "No?"

Su Cai'er quickly took his hand and confessed hurriedly: "I, I can do it!"

After I finished speaking, I felt that something was not enough.

"And, I can do better!"

Zhao Ce smiled gently at her.
