Picked Up A Husband For Farming

Chapter 340 - 340 The Children Fight



340 The Children Fight

When Lin Xia heard Xu Qing’s words, she clenched her fists tightly. Everyone knew that although she had been married to Ao Jie for a year, they had yet to consummate their marriage. All the other concubines had sex with Ao Jie, but she, the official wife…

She had also mentioned this to Lin Shu, but what could she do? The empress was a mother, so how could she control which woman her son slept with? Moreover, it wasn’t that Ao Jie didn’t want to bang a woman, but that he didn’t want to do it with Lin Xia! This puzzled Lin Shu. Could it be that there was something wrong with her niece? Despite how beautiful Lin Xia was, Ao Jie didn’t even look at her.

As time went by, Lin Shu didn’t care anymore. Otherwise, if she interfered too much and Ao Jie rejected all the women, that would be bad news for her. However, it was strange that none of Ao Jie’s concubines had ever given birth to a child.

Therefore, Lin Xia was all alone with no one to help her.

Of course, what they didn’t know was that Ao Jie actually didn’t have sex with any one of them. He used some hallucinogenic medicine, which would make those women think that they had sex and also create the illusion of a fake pregnancy. He did all of this because he didn’t want to be controlled by his mother.

After hearing Xu Qing’s words, the few concubines behind Lin Xia also chuckled. They were mocking Lin Xia.

“Even though some people have been intimate for many years, they still haven’t given birth to children. That’s just how fate is. The General’s wife gave birth to three children in one go, and both mother and child are safe. Not everyone is so lucky.” When Lin Xia saw that those women actually dared to mock her, she immediately retorted. Of course, she didn’t forget to arouse people’s hatred towards Xu Qing.

As soon as she finished speaking, the concubines’ expressions darkened. They had been pregnant before, but they all had miscarriages in less than three months. Didn’t that mean that they were unlucky?!

Xu Qing couldn’t be bothered to participate in their quarrel, so she prepared to leave. However, Lin Xia was here to cause trouble. Now that she was being mocked, how could she let Xu Qing leave?

“Why are you in a hurry to leave? Could it be that you feel insecure?”

These words puzzled Xu Qing. “Why would I feel insecure?”

Lin Xia sized Xu Qing up critically. “You’re not pretty or sexy… Seeing that I’m curvy and gorgeous, you feel so insecure that you don’t dare to stay?”

Xu Qing was speechless.

Although Xu Qing wasn’t as dazzling as Deng Chengxi and couldn’t compare to the beautiful Mu Weiqing, she was the pretty girl-next-door type. As for her figure, she had given birth to children before, but coupled with yoga classes and Qiao Yanhui’s “assistance”, she had a good figure.

Xu Qing felt that Lin Xia was just jealous.

That’s right, she was jealous. Lin Xia still remembered how Xu Qing looked when she first came to the capital. Among all the beautiful women, Xu Qing was a plain jane. But now, it was unknown if it was because she was doted on by Qiao Yanhui, but Xu Qing became more confident and eye-catching.

Lin Xia walked towards Xu Qing and said fiercely in a voice that the two of them could hear, “What kind of seduction technique did you use to seduce the Crown Prince into going to your house every day…”

Xu Qing interrupted Lin Xia with a slap and watched as Lin Xia covered her face in disbelief. The person behind Lin Xia took a few steps back in shock.

“You’d better shut your mouth. If you spout nonsense again, I don’t mind making you mute.” Xu Qing’s eyes were filled with cold killing intent.

The surrounding people were astonished and lament that Xu Qing wasn’t to be trifled with. They had come to cause trouble for Xu Qing, but Xu Qing slapped the crown prince’s wife in public.

After Xu Qing finished speaking, she ignored Lin Xia and returned to her seat to drink tea.

Princess Ao Li’er walked over worriedly. “You slapped the Lin family’s niece in front of so many people just now. I’m afraid Lin Shu…”

When Xu Qing glanced around and saw the other ladies looking at her in fear, she smiled calmly. “It’s fine.”

Ao Li’er sighed softly. She knew that Xu Qing was capable, but she should still to put on a front for appearance’s sake.

At this moment, Ao Li’er’s subordinate hurriedly reported, “Your Highness, there’s bad news. There’s a fight over there!” As he spoke, he pointed in the direction where the children were playing.

“What’s going on?” Ao Li’er’s expression darkened. Thinking that Qiao Yanhui’s children were also there, she hurriedly stood up.

After Xu Qing put down her teacup, she walked over quickly to look for Xue’er and the others. She saw the children standing under a tree not far away, so she ran over and sized them up. “What’s going on?”

Xu Qing looked at Qi Yi and Lei Zhou, who were bruised. Xue’er was smiling, while Ting’er looked calm.
