But before she could take a step, Li Qian hugged her waist. Li Qian chuckled in Jiujiu's ear and said, "I only want you to give birth to my child. 1357924? 6810gggggd”
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Of course, it was a torment.
When Jiujiu woke up the next day, Li Qian was long gone. But to Jiujiu's surprise, Lady Wang sent someone to call her to her courtyard.
Ever since she embarrassed Lady Wang last time, Lady Wang had not come to see her at all. This time, she suddenly called her over. It was obvious that she did not come with good intentions.
Jiujiu yawned lazily. After thinking for a while, she took out a dark red cheongsam and put it on.
Because she was still young, her small face was full of collagen. She was beautiful enough without makeup. If she used makeup, it would cover up the original color of her face and make her look gaudy.
Jiujiu just gently drew her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil and put a little rouge on her bright red lips. Then she turned and walked to Lady Wang's courtyard.
Although Lady Wang knew that Jiujiu was beautiful, she had not seen Jiujiu for almost half a year. When she saw Jiujiu again, Lady Wang's face froze. She almost did not dare to recognize her.
Compared to half a year ago, Jiujiu seemed to have opened up a little. Her cheeks, which still had some baby fat, had become even more mature and beautiful. However, what was completely different from her increasingly beautiful face was that her eyes were big and round. Mist lingered around them, as if they were filled with water vapor all year round. It made people want to love her tenderly. Although the two contradicted each other, they blended together harmoniously, forming a different kind of charm.
Looking at Jiujiu's exquisite body and beautiful face, Lady Wang thought of her ordinary face, which was even wrinkled because of old age. The jealousy in Lady Wang's eyes almost sprayed out like venom. After a long time, she took a deep breath and suppressed the jealousy in her chest. She said softly, "Ruyan, I called you here today to tell you something."
Jiujiu looked around and sat down in her seat. Then, she slowly raised her head and looked at First Madam. "Elder Sister, please speak your mind."
Lady Wang was almost angry at Jiujiu's arrogance. But in the end, she suppressed her anger and took a deep breath. "Mother wants to see you."
"Mother?" Jiujiu blinked. If she remembered correctly, Li Qian's mother had been killed by his father's concubines when he was sent abroad to study.. and the first thing he did when he came back was to kill his father's concubines one by one and feed them to the dogs.
Since his father's concubines were all dead and he didn't remarry, where did his mother come from?
Seeing Jiujiu's puzzled look, Lady Wang took a deep breath and said, "Father married Second Madam because of that."
Although Li Qian's father, Li Ze, had all his concubines killed by Li Qian, it didn't stop him from wanting to have sex. Some time ago, he took another concubine, Qi Qi, and it was said that she was a prostitute of the Musical House. Because she was beautiful and sensible, Li Ze was fascinated by her in a few days. This time, when Li Qian came back, he discussed with Li Qian about taking Qi Qi as his second wife.
However, the memory of Li Qian killing all his concubines that day was so deep that no matter what he did, his first reaction was to look at Li Qian's face. Now, without Li Qian's consent, he didn't dare to ask Qi Qi to be his second wife. This time, when Second Madam was pregnant, Li Qian's mood might be better, so he came over, hoping that Li Qian would agree because of the child.
Because Li Qian was already twenty-eight years old and only had one child, Second Madam, Li Ze steeled his heart and felt that Li Qian's mood must be extremely good. Without waiting for Li Qian to speak, he directly let First Madam lead Qi Qi to meet the people in Li Qian's backyard.
Lady Wang didn't like Li Qian, so she could only curry favor with Li Ze. After learning about Li Ze's thoughts, she directly agreed.
Moreover, she had some other thoughts.
Everyone knew that Li Qian hated Li Ze, and Li Ze only took a concubine recently. Therefore, Lady Wang wasn't sure whether Li Qian would agree to Li Ze's matter, but it would be fine to introduce Qi Qi to Jiujiu.
If something happened, she had her father to rely on, but Jiujiu was different. She relied on Li Qian's love. If she made Li Qian unhappy and lost Li Qian's love, it would be easy for her to deal with Li Qian.
Lady Wang's abacus was crackling. After she finished speaking, she asked someone to bring Qi Qi in.
For Qi Qi to be able to mesmerize Li Ze, a man who was used to seeing beauties in his fifties, she naturally had her own abilities.
She didn't look like a seductive woman with the temperament of a vixen. Instead, she looked like an ethereal woman in a secluded valley. She was the kind of woman who could be seen through at first glance.
Li Ze, who was used to seeing complicated and scheming people all his life, naturally preferred simple women. It wasn't a loss for him to fall into Qi Qi's hands.
However, Jiujiu glanced at Qi Qi. Although she looked extremely innocent on the surface, she had encountered many situations where one could know a person's face but not their heart. Jiujiu naturally did not believe that Qi Qi was as innocent and harmless as she appeared to be.
Lady Wang hurriedly made Qi Qi a guest of honor when she came in. She looked at Jiujiu and said, "This is Mother."
Jiujiu blinked and glanced at Qi Qi. She smiled and said, "Sister, you're joking. She's just a concubine. Only I can call her Mother. Sister, are you stupid?"
Lady Wang didn't expect Jiujiu to say that. Although Li Qian was in charge of the Li family, Li Ze still held military power. Although Li Qian wasn't afraid of Li Ze, she wouldn't go head-to-head with him. Qi Qi was deeply loved by Li Ze. If she offended Qi Qi and Li Ze whispered in his ear, Jiujiu would definitely have to bear the consequences.
Sure enough, as soon as Jiujiu finished speaking, Qi Qi's face, which was like an orchid in an empty valley, instantly changed color. However, in the end, she only frowned slightly, as if Jiujiu's words had nothing to do with her.
Lady Wang glanced at Jiujiu and hurriedly urged, "Sister, why aren't you apologizing to Mother?"
"I didn't say anything wrong. She's just a concubine. Is she worthy of me calling her Mother? Sister, are you really confused?"
After saying "confused" twice in a row, Lady Wang felt even more embarrassed. She slammed her palm on the table and said, "Sister, what do you mean?"
"The literal meaning. Elder Sister, are you confused?" Jiujiu raised her eyes and glanced lightly at Qi Qi. Although Qi Qi was putting on an act, she could tell from her body's careless movements that this woman wasn't as simple as she appeared.
