Chapter 244 Mrs. Hu's Collapse
Meng Niang breathed a sigh of relief after Cheng Jiao nodded.

My judgment was correct, Cheng Jiao is indeed a beautiful woman.

Whether it was going to Qixiang Pavilion for fun, or entering the mansion just now, Cheng Jiao’s conversation with the little girl named Ali, and the woman who was watching the moon here just now.

All of this shows that Cheng Jiao has many women and likes beautiful women.

This hobby is very common among the nobility, and it can even be considered a good hobby as long as one can control oneself.

After a conversation with Meng Niang, the bright moon had faded and the sky was turning pale.

Meng Niang looked at it vaguely, as if she saw her own rebirth.

Cheng Jiao was in a good mood. "You can find an empty house here to stay first. Don't go out unless necessary. I will come to see you when I have time. Don't be anxious."

After Meng Niang came back to her senses, she responded in a low voice and watched Cheng Jiao leave.

I didn't expect so many things to happen to me in one night.

He and Niangrong tried to play a trick on Cheng Jiao, but got caught instead.

He was taken away by Cheng Jiao again and thought he would be detained, but unexpectedly he found a way to eliminate the toxins in his body by accident.

The only thing that made her feel a little complicated was that she thought she was destined to be alone, but in the end she actually had a man.

In this regard, Meng Niang could only sigh that life is like a dream.

It would be nice to be Cheng Jiao's woman, but she didn't expect Cheng Jiao to let her take him in as a concubine.

Then, Meng Niang thought of something and couldn't help frowning.

Besides Cheng Jiao being a celestial being, there is another celestial being on Cheng Jiao's side, who is simply not something Lu Buwei can resist. The defeat depends only on Cheng Jiao's mood.

In this case, Niangrong would also be in danger.

After Lu Buwei fell, even if Cheng Jiao did not take action, the people behind Cheng Jiao would not be merciful to Lu Buwei. According to the international practice of the Seven Kingdoms, at best he would be demoted to slavery and become an official slave, at worst he would be wiped out.

After all, Niangrong is my student whom I have been with for more than a year. It would be difficult to leave her indifferent.

The good news is that no one knows what Cheng Jiao is thinking now, and it seems that he has no intention of taking action against Lu Buwei, but it is also clear that he is not unwilling to take action.

Meng Niang was thinking about how to rescue Niang Rong without offending Cheng Jiao. As for whether Lu Buwei lived or died, she didn't care.

After pondering for a long time, he finally sighed softly: "Trouble..."

Unless Cheng Jiao has no scruples and is willing to give Lu Niangrong a way out.

Cheng Jiao, who had just walked out of the Snow Garden and was about to go to the palace, met Mrs. Hu, who had gotten up early, with Ali.

"Son!"

Ali shouted crisply, she was very happy to see Cheng Jiao.

Cheng Jiao asked in a low voice: "What are you doing?"

Ali took Madam Hu's arm and said with a smile, "I am going to go buy some ingredients with Madam Hu. The dishes cooked by the hired cook are not very good, so Madam Hu is going to cook."

"That's it..."

This world is not the Warring States period in history. The food in Qin Dynasty was very rich and the diet was very developed. The only drawback is that most of the common food in later times was produced in very small quantities and could only be used by the richer nobles, which was considered a luxury.

Since he came here, he hasn't paid much attention to food. At least the food is better than in his previous life.

Unexpectedly, Ali said that this was not acceptable. Cheng Jiao was thinking about whether to bring Fatty Po Ding over to be the chef. Let him taste the top cooking skills of this era.

I don’t know whether he is in Qi and Lu or in the Mohist school at this time.

Mrs. Hu half lowered her head and glanced at Cheng Jiao out of the corner of her eye.

She had nothing to do in Cheng Jiao's mansion except talking to Nong Yu often. She was not familiar with Cheng Jiao's other women, and she was not good at communicating, so she always felt like an outsider.

When I first entered the mansion, there was a shortage of staff, so I cooked together with Ali and the others. My cooking skills had been improved a lot because I often cooked for my sister, and they were much better than the cook that Ali hired.

So, he simply decided to take charge of the kitchen affairs. With the help of the cook hired by Ali, it was not a big deal.

Cheng Jiao pondered and said, "Let's wait until tomorrow. I am going to the palace today. I haven't seen my mother and Madam Hu for many days. It's time to go there."

Ali didn't think too much about it and nodded, "Okay, I'll go find Xiu'er and let the cook cook today."

Ali was used to Cheng Jiao not often eating at home.

Cheng Jiao and his women don’t have big appetites. For example, those with high cultivation levels like Sister Jingwei and Sister Liwu only need to eat once a day.

In addition, there are not many people and there are no complicated rules in the mansion, so Ali can manage it with ease.

If she was really busy, she could withdraw some money from the warehouse and hire servants to do the chores.

Mrs. Hu didn't expect Cheng Jiao to let her go to the palace with him.

Thinking that he hadn't seen Mrs. Han for many days, he should go and agreed.

After Ali left, Cheng Jiao looked at Mrs. Hu, who seemed a little nervous, and joked, "Sister-in-law, there's no one here, don't be nervous."

Mrs. Hu thought to herself, it’s because there are no people that I feel nervous.

"Sir, when are we going to the palace?"

Cheng Jiao held Mrs. Hu's slender waist and chuckled, "Are you anxious?"

Mrs. Hu avoided looking around and prayed that no one saw her.

"Hurry, let me go. It will be troublesome if someone sees us."

Mrs. Hu said in a low voice.

Cheng Jiao didn't care about it. Instead, he gave Mrs. Hu's soft lips a deep kiss.

Mrs. Hu was caught off guard and almost suffocated.

Feeling Mrs. Hu's struggle, Cheng Jiao relaxed.

When he was flirting with Madam Hu, he had already let go of his perception. Unless a celestial being approached with hidden aura, it would be impossible to hide it from him.

Mrs. Hu quickly wiped the corner of her mouth and looked at Cheng Jiao, who was not afraid of anything happening, with some worry.

Given Cheng Jiao's unruly character, her bad relationship with Cheng Jiao would be exposed sooner or later.

Cheng Jiao teased, "Are you scared, sister-in-law?"

Mrs. Hu folded her hands in front of her belly, clenched her fingers, and pursed her red lips, vaguely savoring the unexpected kiss from Cheng Jiao just now.

"Sir, don't do this again in the future. If...if you want, you can go inside or outside. It's better not to do it like now, as it will be easy for people to see you..."

Cheng Jiao listened to Mrs. Hu's somewhat uneasy words and stopped teasing her.

"Don't worry, with my strength, no one can get close to me."

Mrs. Hu was hugged by Cheng Jiao again. After hearing Cheng Jiao's words, she breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Cheng Jiao was sure before he kissed her.

"Really?"

A light laugh was heard, causing Mrs. Hu's whole body to stiffen and she almost fainted.

If she had not been leaning on Cheng Jiao's arms and having Cheng Jiao's support, she would have fallen to the ground now.

Cheng Jiao embraced Mrs. Hu and turned around, speechless.

I knew it was Bai Luan by the voice. In the whole mansion, she was the only one who could get close to me without me trying to sense her.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I ask you to look after Meng Niang in Xueyuan?"

Bai Luan stretched lazily and said, "Come out for a walk. I have marked that woman, so she can't run away. You guys continue, I won't disturb you." Mrs. Hu looked at Cheng Jiao anxiously.

Cheng Jiao snorted, "I didn't see anything today, understand?"

Bai Luan blinked her slightly charming eyes.

"Why? Oh, this Madam Hu, if I remember correctly, seems to be Nanyue's mother. I never knew that Master Chengjiao is really good at playing. When will you come and have some fun with me?"

How could Cheng Jiao not see that Bai Luan was trying to get some benefits?

If Mrs. Hu hadn't had a weak psychological quality and hadn't cared so much about this matter, how could she have let Bai Luan be so proud.

But for the sake of Mrs. Hu, who was almost on the verge of collapse in his arms, Cheng Jiao had no choice but to give Bai Luan hush money.

"Take a pill to restore your soul and keep this matter to yourself."

Bai Luan didn't expect that she would encounter such a good thing just by going out for a walk on a whim.

She held a glowing Huiling Pill between her jade fingers and accepted it with satisfaction.

There was no bargaining. She was already quite surprised that Cheng Jiao could give it to her.

"I can't believe you care so much about this woman. If you give me a few more, I'll wait for you in the room tonight."

Bai Luan put the Huiling Pill away, passed Cheng Jiao and Mrs. Hu, and continued her walk with a brisk pace.

Cheng Jiao glanced at the dark contract and the attribute points that were consumed by Bai Luan to keep silent.

Two hundred, he gave up decisively. He was not stupid to draw the wheel two hundred times, and at least get ten soul-restoring pills.

He patted the still trembling Mrs. Hu and comforted her, "It's okay. She is Bai Luan, the female marquis of Korea. You should know that she said she would not tell anyone, and that means she would not tell anyone."

Mrs. Hu's gentle eyes became watery, and she looked like she was about to cry, which made Cheng Jiao sigh.

In fact, if Mrs. Hu didn't have that psychological barrier and didn't mind being with Nongyu, she wouldn't be so painful.

Mrs. Hu, who had been feeling as if the sky was falling, suddenly found that the weather was fine and she was at a loss as to what to do.

Plus, what Cheng Jiao said about the female marquis made her feel like she had heard of it somewhere before.

"Female Marquis? Is she Bai Yifei's mother?"

Mrs. Hu was a little surprised when she thought of her sister, Lady Hu, and what she had mentioned inadvertently.

"Well, to be precise, I would say it's my adoptive mother, haha."

Cheng Jiao gently wiped Mrs. Hu's tears and briefly told her about Bai Luan.

After hearing this, Mrs. Hu completely relaxed.

Cheng Jiao can control her life, so naturally he can make her obedient. However, it seems that she doesn't listen to Cheng Jiao that much.

"You and her, are you also..."

"Uh-huh."

Cheng Jiao responded casually.

He didn't want to explain so much. Some secrets were not suitable for Mrs. Hu to know. She just needed to understand that Bai Luan could not escape from his grasp.

"That's it..."

Mrs. Hu felt somewhat helpless. Just as her sister had expected, there were more and more women around Cheng Jiao, but she already knew at least a dozen of them.

If Cheng Jiao could bring back the Korean ladies Zi Nu Ying Ge, Hong Lian Ming Zhu, and the woman named Yan Fei in Xianyang.

Mrs. Hu couldn't help but worry about Nanyue. Even with Zinu's help, how could she gain favor in Chengjiao's backyard where there were so many women?

I also understand my sister Lady Hu's painstaking efforts. There is no difference between being in Chengjiao's backyard and the royal harem. If you don't eat more, other women will eat yours.

Mrs. Hu sat in the carriage in a daze, driven by Cheng Jiao, without letting anyone else follow.

This carriage was specially found and bought by Ali the day before yesterday at the cost of hundreds of gold coins. It can be said to be the best carriage that can be bought in Xianyang City now.

The exterior is plain and unpretentious, full of texture. The interior is large enough to accommodate more than ten people. It is equipped with a tea table, a soft couch, a sandalwood low bed, and some decorative furnishings. A special ice bucket is also thoughtfully placed there to create some cool air to dispel the summer heat.

In particular, some mechanical techniques were applied, and the shock-absorbing function was very strong. Mrs. Hu, who was sitting in the carriage, did not notice any vibration.

It is more than ten times better than the makeshift carriage we had before, and of course the price is also more than ten times higher.

Cheng Jiao was leisurely drawing the three horses, finding it quite interesting and having a lot of fun.

Mrs. Hu, sitting on the bed in the carriage, felt a little uneasy. Cheng Jiao brought her out alone and used such a nice carriage. Based on her understanding of Cheng Jiao, he would not do nothing.

Do you want to go out and get a room with her?

She had heard the term "check into a hotel room" from Cheng Jiao before. She didn't understand it at first, but later, under Cheng Jiao's ambiguous gaze, she understood this rather abstract term.

While Mrs. Hu was daydreaming, she heard a voice: "We're here."

Arrived? What arrived? Which inn? Did she know?
Seeing no movement in the carriage, Cheng Jiao lifted the quilt and saw Madam Hu sitting on the couch in a daze. He was a little puzzled: "Why aren't you moving? We've arrived at the palace. Do you want the maid to take you there, or should I accompany you?"

"what?"

Mrs. Hu covered her slightly open mouth and was brought back to reality by Cheng Jiao's words.

I felt a little self-deprecating and resentful towards Cheng Jiao.

He always whispers nonsense in her ears, causing her to think of inappropriate things whenever she is with Cheng Jiao.

Cheng Jiao held Mrs. Hu's hand. After Cheng Jiao improved Mrs. Hu's strength a little, she got off the carriage quite nimbly.

Then he quickly pulled his little hand out of Cheng Jiao's hand.

"Let the maid take me to Madam Han."

Mrs. Hu hesitated for a moment, but decided not to let Cheng Jiao go with her.

She was teased by Cheng Jiao in the morning and then discovered by others, which made her very excited and it was difficult for her to stay with Cheng Jiao calmly.

If Mrs. Han finds out anything, it will be a huge joke.

Will we still be “best friends” in the future?

"Alright."

Cheng Jiao agreed graciously. He had something to do when he came to the palace today and didn't have time to send Madam Hu to his mother, Madam Han.

After taking a look at the low-key, luxurious and meaningful carriage that Ali had picked out for him, Cheng Jiao nodded with satisfaction.

If I go abroad for travel later, I will ask Gongshujia to design a personalized one for me, at least twice as big as this one!
He has plenty of money and talented people now, so of course he wants to be extravagant.

I don't know what power the Mohist and Gongshujia mechanical devices use. I wonder if Gongshu Chou can add a function similar to magnetic levitation to the carriage and directly make a flying chariot. It would definitely be great.

Cheng Jiao withdrew his gaze from the car and was moved when he saw that Mrs. Hu had calmed down and was as quiet as a virgin.

I felt a little regretful that I was so focused on driving the carriage that I forgot there was a beautiful woman in it.

I actually forgot the traditional art - having sex in the car.

What a waste!

Cheng Jiao glanced vaguely at his sister-in-law standing beside him.

I made up my mind that when I return home later, I will let Mrs. Hu experience the modern declining culture.
