I Asked You to Be My Son's Concubine

Zhou Yi waved his hand and said, "We'll talk about it later!"

The next day, Zheng Xing'an wanted to get up early, but Cheng Chao pulled her back into bed. "Wife, sleep a little longer, there's still plenty of time."

Zheng Xing'an said with a worried look, "My parents-in-law seemed to have stayed at home yesterday. Would it be inappropriate for me not to go out and offer them tea?"

Cheng Chao chuckled and said:

"Wife, I'm a son-in-law now, what kind of tea should I serve you?"

If we're really going to serve tea, then we should serve tea to our young lady first, then it's time for bed.

Be bolder, and stop thinking nonsense.

Cheng Chao kicked them out yesterday, but unexpectedly, the two of them came back last night.

Cheng Xiao and Feng Caigu are now sitting in the main hall, waiting for Cheng Chao Cheng Chao and his wife.

Feng Caigu muttered under her breath:

"What kind of wife can be so lazy? She's still lying in bed at this hour, it's outrageous!"

They don't even bother to make breakfast, and they have absolutely no manners or etiquette!

You lot, go and wake her up! Look at the time!

She still wanted to maintain her airs as a mother-in-law, but no one in the Cheng household paid her any attention.

Cheng Xiao held her teacup, her brows slightly furrowed.

They came today to give their new daughter-in-law a hard time, so she wouldn't be out of control later.

Feng Caigu was standing nearby, shouted loudly, "Go and drag that lazy old woman out of there!"

Several servants mustered their courage and walked into the courtyard, but as soon as they stepped outside the gate, they were stopped by the Cheng family's own guards.

Before they could even speak, they were beaten beyond recognition.

The men ran back in a sorry state, saying, "Madam, we dare not go back anymore; we've been beaten up like this."

"Ouch! Those guards were too ruthless."

Feng Caigu was so angry that her chest hurt.

"Zheng Xing'an is really out of control, daring to hit you."

Good, good, good. I've really chosen a good daughter-in-law. She gave me a real shock on the very first day.

She's not coming, is she? If she's not coming, I'll go find her.

Feng Caigu stormed to the gate of their courtyard, only to be stopped.

You cannot go in here.

Feng Caigu pointed at his nose and cursed, "This is my son's house, why can't I go in?"

The guard sneered:

"All I know is that this house belongs to my wife. What does it have to do with your son?"

Besides, our monthly allowances are all paid by the madam.

Feng Caigu said angrily:

"Your wives' monthly allowances are all paid by my son, so call them out right now."

It's almost noon, are they planning to sleep all day?

Zheng Xing'an's maidservant came out and said:

"What are you yelling about? Don't you have any manners? You're a guest, but you're not behaving like one. If you don't want to stay here, then keep yelling."

If she keeps yelling here, just throw her out.

Feng Caigu never imagined that one day she would be scolded by a little girl.

She shouted, "Go! Take her down! She's just a little maid, how dare she ride on my head and pee and shit on me?"

The women behind Feng Caigu rushed aggressively toward the young maid.

To everyone's surprise, the young maid was quick and efficient, knocking down the servants that Feng Caigu had brought in just a few moves.

Those people were beaten black and blue, their clothes disheveled, groaning and unable to get up.

The little maidservant simply plopped down on someone's back, raised her hand and slapped him a few more times, shouting:

"Don't you even know whose territory this is? How dare you act so arrogantly and bully people here?"

"Don't you even know who we are? Do you really think the Cheng residence is a place where you can cause trouble as you please?"

Feng Caigu trembled with fear and said, "This is outrageous! This is utter rebellion! When Cheng Chao comes out, I'll have him sell you all off!"

"Oh? Really? I'm waiting!"

It wasn't until noon that Cheng Chao brought Zheng Xing'an out.

Feng Caigu rushed over and said:

"My son! Look at the state of my men!"

"It's all because of that bitch, she had them beaten like this. You even sold off all the maids around her."

Cheng Chao looked closely at the servants and said, "This beating... Honghong, did you skip breakfast today? You've been beaten like this? This isn't like you!"

Honghong chuckled and said, "Oh dear! No matter what, she's still your mother. I feel bad about harming her."

Cheng Chao chuckled and said, "No way! It's okay, my mom's tough as nails, I'll just beat her up next time."

With her hands on her hips, Mother Cheng pointed at him and said, "Cheng Chao, you beast! Even if I gave birth to a piece of char siu, I'd be better than you."

Cheng Chao grumbled, "Then you can give birth to a piece of char siu! If one isn't enough, you can give birth to a few more."

Feng Caigu rolled her eyes in anger:

"Cheng Chao slept until the sun was high in the sky on the first day, have you guys no shame?"

Especially you, you lazy woman, I've never seen a woman as lazy as you.

Cheng Chao, you'd better divorce this woman and marry someone else, otherwise...

Cheng Chao said with a smile:

"Otherwise what? You want me to divorce her, but someone has to take over, right?"

You need to find someone to take over for me. I'm penniless right now, and without her, I won't even have a place to eat.

Why don't you take care of me? Actually, I'm quite easy to take care of.

In that case, I'll go back with you today. Give me 100,000 taels of silver a month, and I'll definitely live a good life.

But you have to give me the money first.

Feng Caigu was furious. "Fine! You don't need to serve tea today, anyway, I won't acknowledge her as my daughter-in-law."

Cheng Chao nodded and said, "I wasn't planning on serving tea either. We're in a hurry to serve tea to Miss! Let's go."

Cheng Chao wasn't joking; he genuinely intended to offer tea to Zhou Wanwan.

He took Zheng Xing'an to the Cui Family; there was no other way, since Zhou Wanwan was staying Cui Family.

Just then, Zhou Wanwan was sitting in the Cui Family's living room when Madam Cui looked at her and said, "Zhou Wanwan, what have you thought about the matter I mentioned to you?"

Zhou Wanwan looked up at Madam Cui and asked, "Huh? What is it?"

Madam Cui looked at her with obvious impatience and said:

"I said I'd make her my son's concubine. What's your thought about it?"

My son, Cui Hongyuan, is no ordinary person. He's only 13 years old, but he's already passed the imperial examination at the county level.

Everyone says he's a child prodigy; if you could become his concubine, that would be an incredible blessing.

Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said:

"To be a concubine? Sorry, I'm not interested. He passed the imperial examination at 13 and became a scholar? Tsk tsk tsk..."

"You're not just stupid, you're incredibly slow-witted. You seem to have forgotten, I was only 6 years old when I passed the imperial examination at the lowest level."

Making her a concubine? This Madam Cui the Younger is really courting death.

Madam Cui the Younger snorted coldly:

"But you can't just not get married, can you?"

Our Cui Family is no ordinary noble family. For you to become a concubine in our Cui Family family, it must be because your ancestors accumulated good karma for generations.

"You're just a country bumpkin. If it weren't for the Nie Family's connections, you wouldn't even be allowed into our Cui Residence."
