“Miss.” Yi Jie came in with a meal tray, which contained a few small dishes that Guan Junyun loved to eat, “Let's eat, today there are also a few snacks and small dishes that our madam ordered to be sent over and that the young lady loves to eat.”

　　“Put it there.” Guan Junyun looked at the account book in her hand, “It's raining outside?”

　　“Yes, it's still raining quite a bit.” Qi Qian puts the food from the meal tray on the table, “When I came over just now, I heard that it was the Prime Minister who had just returned as well.”

　　“Uh-huh.” Guan Junyun never took the initiative to ask Zhuge Chen where he was, nor did she care what he did. To everyone this didn't seem like a newly married, honeyed young couple. Even that day's homecoming was just a bare necessity, forever remembering when Second Sister-in-Law pulled herself into the room to talk about herself, looking at her with no small amount of worry: Yun'er, you can't lose yourself. When she said this, her second sister-in-law had a solemn look on her face, and had always wondered how she could have lost herself.

　　“Qin'er by the Prime Minister's side has always served by the Prime Minister's side, and the slave girl has heard that she is Sister Li's inner niece.” Qi Qian strung a hot pad over and very carefully wiped Guan Junyun's hands, “Sister Li is thinking that Qin'er has some decency by the Prime Minister's side, and that's why she doesn't put the young lady in her sights.”

　　“Uh-huh.” Guan Junyun raised her eyelids and glanced at her, “Go down, there's no need for you to serve here.”

　　“Miss.” Qi Qian didn't know where she had said something wrong, but Miss had this demeanor that she just didn't want to hear herself say it again, “Slave girl, what did I say wrong?”

　　“Qi Qian, are you afraid of Sister Li?” Guan Junyun put down the things in her hand, “If you're afraid, I'll ask someone to send you back. I don't want you to be here like me, this is something I can still be master of.”

　　“Miss don't be angry, the slave girl will never talk nonsense again. The slave girl will not leave miss for anything she says.” Qi Qian kneels at Guan Jun Hyun's feet, “The slave girl is just aggrieved on behalf of Miss, when is Miss not as good as a human being. But now that even a Sister is dictating in front of Miss, wouldn't it be too much of an aggravation?”

　　“It's not a big deal, why do you have to make yourself aggrieved?” Guan Junyun reaches out and pulls Qi Qian up, “I know you're not convinced on my behalf, but nowadays it's not like at home, where you can do whatever you want with your words and temperament. If you're not careful, you'll get yourself into trouble, and I don't want you to be the first one to do it. You don't want people to catch you in the act, so be careful.”

　　“Miss.” The tears that Qi Qian had been able to hold back were brought to tears by Guan Junyun's plain words, “The slave girl's ignorance made Miss angry, the slave girl will never do it again.”

　　The corner of Guan Junyun's mouth curled slightly, “Let's eat first, I'm hungry too.” Wu Fianxue was very careful, preparing her a few exquisite snacks that she would usually have almost every day at home, Guan Junyun looked at these, her nose slightly sour. Things that were no more commonplace before were exceptionally precious at this time.

　　“Miss, that thing on your neck?” Qi Qian and Xian'er could always accompany Guan Junyun to eat together, at this time Xian'er was not in Guan Junyun so she pulled her to sit at the bottom of the table, Qi Qian ate two mouthfuls of food and suddenly remembered what she had just seen.

　　Guan Junyun heavily put the chopsticks down, her cheeks purple: “Don't ask.” The flickering eyes carried a thinly veiled anger that she didn't want to give away, as if she was a shy little girl.

　　“Tomorrow, the slave girl will find a thick cloud shoulder for miss. The days are getting cooler.” Qi Qian looks at her, “Miss, when the slave girl goes down every day, the Prime Minister doesn't even come.”

　　Guan Junyun Zi looked at Qi Qian with a rising face, a new wife and an unmarried woman, why would she say these embarrassing topics, “Don't say this.”

　　“Miss, if that's the case then you should have a serious idea.” Yi Yi looked at Guan Junyun with a serious face, “Look at our lady, no matter how many people are around the general, the lady is the most important.”

　　Guan Junyun sighed slightly, no matter how much her second brother and sister-in-law loved each other, there would always be someone around. What about herself? Guan Cuiyun was the one who was supposed to be Zhuge Chen's wife, she was just a substitute. He came in a way that no one would ever see, just the most primal desire between a man and a woman.

　　Qi Qi looked at Guan Junyun's tasteless appearance and chagrined that she shouldn't have brought up these things. Since Guan Junyun's marriage, she hadn't seen a trace of relief in her.

　　Every day, apart from going up to her room to greet the old madam, she listened to her words. Even I can understand those words, Miss is even more able to understand. But the young lady has never been dissatisfied, not even a trace of annoyance, are not the young lady he used to see at home.

　　“Remove it, I can't eat anymore either.” Guan Jun Hyun waved her hand, the account book at hand and those few booklets above the manor are all must see, after some time the manor people have to come to pay the field rent and all kinds of mountain goods.

　　“It's raining so heavily outside, Miss would be better off settling in early.” Qi Qian gets up and spreads out the bedding, Guan Jun Yun has already taken the account book to the side of the bookcase and slowly looks at it. He couldn't help but sigh. In the past, when she was at home, Madam might not even let her take a look at it, but nowadays she would definitely take these things and look at them as long as she was free.

　　“Who?” Qi Qian had been out for a long time, and it was finally clear without anyone chattering in her ear. But the door was heavily pushed open, Guan Junyun subconsciously twisted her head to look at the person who pushed the door in, and swallowed back her words at the edge of her mouth.

　　Zhuge Chen came in with a cold face, and the pen in Guan Junyun's hand trembled for a moment. Even she didn't know why she couldn't help but chicken out every time she saw him.

　　“Prime Minister.” Guan Junyun got up and poured him a cup of fresh tea and put it in his hand.

　　“Mother asked you to take charge of the household today?” Zhuge Chen took a sip of tea, his tone cold to the core.

　　“Yes.” Guan Junyun nodded, not an unseemly thing, but Zhuge Chen also knew better than his mother-in-law what this meant. From the very beginning, what he had hoped for was that the woman standing behind him would be Guan Cuiyun, and that it wouldn't be a second woman. But the heavens played a joke on him. The woman standing behind him turned out to be himself, I wonder if this is considered a great irony.

　　Zhuge Chen glanced at her, “If you don't know how to assign it, go ask mother to save yourself from being laughed at.”

　　“Yes.” Guan Junyun nodded again, the home he was in charge of was the entire empire, from top to bottom there was not a single thing that could escape his eyes, then his home should be in charge of a capable and virtuous woman, apart from the woman he trusted the most it wouldn't be the second one, but he was uneasy with the woman who was going to be in charge of his home affairs nowadays. The most tired person should be him.

　　Zhuge Chen walked to her side and saw the bruises left by himself between her neck and neckline, bruises interspersed on the gelatinous skin, apart from being shocking, it was more of a different kind of temptation.

　　The hot air exhaled between her nostrils stimulated the sensitive skin, and Guan Junyun twisted her neck uneasily. Zhuge Chen reached out and untied the luan tapestry around her waist, loosening the dress on her body under the light of the candle. Guan Junyun looked at him, raw desire written all over her emaciated and thin face.

　　“Ah!” Guan Junyun shrieked in a low voice, having been picked up by Zhuge Chen and placed on the bed: “Don't, don't do this.” Every time for Zhuge Chen's endless solicitations, she didn't know what kind of response she should have.

　　“Hmm.” The strange pleasure replaced the initial discomfort, and Guan Junyun didn't dare to call out to people to hear the unpleasant chants that spilled out of her mouth, moaning lowly. As if giving great encouragement to the man on top of her, his moves became more severe, nibbling and tearing at the woman's delicate skin, “Ouch.” Guan Junyun couldn't help but moan out, looking at the man's glittering eyes in the darkness. Guan Junyun's tears couldn't help but come out of her eyes, unwilling to tell him to know, she just turned her face sideways and let the tears soak into the silk handkerchief on her pillow.

　　After the man on top of her finally led her to the peak of lust, he finally stopped moving and got off of her. Guan Jun Hyun quietly evened out her breath, listening to the deep and even breathing on the pillow, tired to the point of wanting to drift off to sleep. But the slender arm came across and rested on the slender waist, gathering her into his arms, “Cuiyun ......”

　　Guan Junyun sidled over, tears pouring down her face. She was just a substitute for Cuiyun Guan, even in bed. No one would ever square up to her for her efforts to do as well as she should. She was just a redundant person, always redundant.
