Chapter 701: Water in Your Brain
Editor: Henyee Translations

Madam Wan came out of the central room and quickly caught up with Xue Zongguang.

After turning a corner, she finally couldn’t take it anymore. She pulled Xue Zongguang and said with a complaining tone, “Why did you bring her to look for Master?”

Tong Shuitao happened to hear this, and her eyes flickered slightly, as if she was about to hear a big secret.

Xue Zongguang frowned and said in a low voice, “Miss is Master’s fiancée. If she wants to see Master, we naturally have to bring her along. What’s wrong with that?”

“B-but…”

Madam Wan stammered, as if she wanted to say something, but she looked troubled.

A bad premonition flashed across Xue Zongguang’s mind. He looked at her abruptly. “Are you hiding something from me?”

“No, no.”

Xue Zongguang had been married to her for many years. Seeing her like this, how could he believe her? His tone immediately became heavier. “Tell me, what are you hiding from me?”

Madam Wan was a little afraid of him. Seeing his dark expression, she couldn’t help but shrink her neck and say softly, “D-Didn’t Qin’er like Master? Early this morning, she saw that Master hadn’t returned, so she went to the Jiao Village. What if that girl goes there too? Wouldn’t they bump into each other?”

Her voice was soft, and Tong Shuitao finally heard it clearly. She immediately widened her eyes and covered her mouth to prevent herself from exclaiming.

Xue Zongguang widened his eyes and looked at Madam Wan, who was shrinking her neck in guilt. His expression was especially ugly. “You, you… Are you trying to anger me to death? I told you last time that Master has a fiancée. Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that he values Miss Gu very much. I asked Qin’er to put away her thoughts. In the end, not only did she not give up, but you also helped her hide it from me. Is there water in your brain?”

Madam Wan was a little afraid of him, but she was still a little unconvinced. “You said it yourself. She’s just a fiancée. Moreover, why are you so sure that Master values that Miss Gu? Our Qin’er is so beautiful. No one within a five-kilometer radius is more beautiful than her. Moreover, Qin’er doesn’t have to be Master’s wife. Being a concubine is Qin’er’s blessing…”

“Shut up!!” Xue Zongguang could not stand it anymore. His fingers trembled as he pointed at her. “As expected of a woman’s opinion. Let me tell you, if you continue to allow Qin’er to get close to Master, we won’t be able to live.”

“It’s not as serious as you say.”

Xue Zongguang saw that she did not know what was good for her, and the veins on his forehead were about to explode. “As expected, you’ve stayed in the manor for too long. You’re so stupid that you can’t even differentiate between master and servant.”

With that, he didn’t look at Madam Wan again and just walked forward even faster.

Madam Wan was stunned for a moment. She quickly took a few steps forward and asked, “Where are you going?”

“Send Miss to the Jiao Village and bring Qin’er back. You search for a good family the next few days. I’ll go to Master and ask for his grace to marry Qin’er off as soon as possible.”

Madam Wan was shocked. “Do you have to do this?”

“It’s for our family.”

Tong Shuitao no longer listened. She turned around and walked back into the central room.

Gu Yundong was standing in the courtyard and looking at a jujube tree in front of her. The jujubes on the tree had already ripened. She pulled some slightly and plucked a large bunch.

She casually wiped them with her clothes and took a few bites.

Yes, they were quite sweet.
