Chapter 353:1 Hate You Rotten
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The princess consort’s face was already fair to begin with, and now that it was red and swollen, the contrast was even more shocking.
The Gong Prince’s heart tightened.
“I didn’t hit you on purpose,” He hurriedly said, “I really couldn’t control myself at that moment.”
“Shun Shun…”
Consort Fei was very calm. There was not a hint of emotion on her face.
“When we were in love, you called me by my nickname for fun. Now that things have changed, that name only disgusts me.”
“From now on, I will no longer be a roadblock for you. You can pamper whoever you want and give your love to whoever you want.”
“What I am most disappointed about is that a mere Secondary Consort Wen and her son took away so much silver from me. There is also Secondary Consort Xu, Madam Zhang, Madam Liu, Madam Zhao, your seven or eight illegitimate sons and daughters, your seventh uncle, and eighth aunt. Yet all of them think that I am the one who is leaching your money.”
“The shops are not doing bad, but you know why 1 can’t save up money. For the sake of that illusory reputation, for the sake of my children, 1 endured it, but you turned a blind eye and a deaf ear. You enjoyed my sacrifice with a clear conscience, but you scolded my children without asking for any reason. Not only were you showing off your ‘fatherly grace’, but you were also humiliating them and me even more.”
“The two children have been obedient and sensible to you since they were young. They have never bullied the weak, and they will never dominate your attention. You are blind and can’t see the good in them. You are shameless. On the day Mi’er returned home, that daughter you dote so much blocked her brother-in-law outside the bathroom. What kind of princess is that? She’s even worse than a prostitute in a brothel. A prostitute at least paid attention to selling her skills and not selling her body.”
“What day is it today? It’s the day Mi’er returned after her wedding. She would only marry once in her life, and only today would she return as the princess of the prince’s residence. After today, she will be the wife of the Heng family’s son.”
“Look at what you’ve done! For the sake of that slut Wen, you even forgot about your eldest daughter returning home. That woman… If her stomach… If her stomach hurts like she claims, what would happen if she miscarries?”
“And what if she didn’t miscarry? She’ll just have another bastard son. They’re not important for your lineage.”
“You have forgotten that you only have one legitimate son and one legitimate daughter. They are the eldest son and daughter of the royal family who were recognized by their ancestors.”

The Gong Prince had never thought that he was such an unbearable person in his wife’s eyes.
He had never thought that she would scold him.
He didn’t expect her to be so resentful.

“Shun Shun, don’t be angry. I’ll send them away right now.”
“Heh.” Consort Fei sneered.
“Too late.”
She didn’t want to say anything more, but she gave the Gong Prince an indifferent stare, “Haven’t you noticed? Ever since you had Secondary Consort Wen, how many times have I stayed with you? Why were there so many concubines in the back residence? You and 1 are healthy, but why haven’t I had another child? Because I’m disgusted with you.”
She had to say all of her grievances to him.
Seeing the Gong Prince’s expression change, he seemed to have suffered a huge blow.
Princess Consort…
No, she would be Madam Jun in the future.
The Jun Family had been a scholarly family for generations. She was well-educated and reasonable, but she had married such a person.
She was very unlucky.
Watching the maids and old women have packed up their things, Madam Jun ordered people to carry them out and left with the servants.
The Gong Prince stared at the empty room.
He felt a chill run down his spine as he fumbled for a chair to sit down.
In this half of his life, he thought that he had been in the limelight and could get whatever he wanted. He had never thought that one day, he would be despised by others.
He couldn’t remember why he would dote on Concubine Wen. Was it because he loved her?
Not really.
Or was it because he could get the obedience and attachment that he wanted from Consort Fei?
Consort Fei…
She was indifferent and lacked intimacy, she wasn’t the type of woman who would cling to him.
He couldn’t feel any love or admiration from her.
No, they weren’t like this in the beginning.
Before, Consort Fei would also ask about his well-being and would discuss things with him.
It all changed when she was pregnant with Mi’er. Because he had brought in a concubine then. When the concubine entered the imperial doors, she was pregnant then too and his wife suddenly became cold to him.
Or rather, at that time, he had been trying to make her jealous.
However, none of the jealousy he was expecting was there.
She only kept her disgust in her heart. On the surface, she still obeyed everything and was respectful to him. But deep down, she had been waiting for the opportunity to leave him.
“Heh.” The Gong Prince sneered.
When Concubine Wen and Concubine Xu learned that the Princess Consort and Li Zhao had left the Prince’s residence in anger, they had different thoughts.
Secondary Consort Wen felt happy and felt that her chance had come.
She was doted on by His Highness. If she gave birth to another son, she might be able to be made his official wife.
Secondary Consort Xu, on the other hand, sighed.
“With Consort Fei making such a ruckus, His Highness will probably come to his senses.” Secondary Consort Xu was worried.
The person he loves always changes.
When the Gong Prince rested at her side, he always asked how many days were left until the first and the fifteenth day of the lunar month. It went without saying who he was thinking about.
Consort Fei never fought for favor. If she had fought for it, none of the concubines would stand a chance…
When she left the Prince’s mansion, Madam Jun looked back and got into the carriage without any reluctance.
Li Zhao asked the coachman to leave quickly.
Leave the city early, lest they can’t reach their new house by nightfall.
Li Mi and Han Chi returned home.
The laughter of children and the barking of dogs were far but welcoming.
Li Mi suddenly felt that the sadness in her heart was strangely gone.
Han Chi led her to the main courtyard and told his mother that they were back.
Han Qiao was still sorting out the gifts in the storeroom.
When she saw the two of them, she smiled and said, “Go to your rooms and pack your gifts. Let’s have dinner together in the dining room tonight.”
There were no rules at home.
The only thing that didn’t seem to change was that they had to eat together.
Regardless of whether the weather was warm or cold, except for being sick and having breakfast, they had to go to the dining room.
“Mother, I’ll bring those things to you so that you can return the gift,” Han Chi said.
“No need. You can keep what I gave you,” Han Qiao shook her head.
She asked Li Mi what she liked and what she wanted to eat.
“Thank you, Mother.”
“There’s bayberry soup and some bayberries in the cellar. Just let the maids get them. Don’t be in a hurry to eat them. It’s not good for a girl to eat too much cold food,” Han Qiao patted Li Mi’s hand.
She liked Li Mi’s hands.
It was soft and comfortable to touch.
“I will listen to Mother,” Li Mi followed Han Chi and called her Mother.
It made them feel even closer.
“Go do your work.”
Li Mi and the others returned home and had a lot of things to do.
Li Mi’s dowry had to be sorted out, and the meeting gifts had to be registered. These were all troublesome tasks.
However, Li Mi’s dowry maids and old women were all capable people, so Han Qiao did not interfere. Otherwise, people would say that she had stretched her hand too far and had extended it into her daughter-in-law’s dowry.
Li Mi and Han Chi returned to their courtyard. Staring at their bare gates, Li Mi said to Han Chi, “Aren’t you going to give our courtyard a name?”
“A name?”
“Yes, with a name, it will officially be our courtyard. The name should suit the view and the people who live in it. 1’11 go ask my three sisters and pick some things for them.”
Han Chi’s three sisters were not only her sisters-in-law but also good sisters and friends.
They were all working hard to make pearl shoes. They planned to make a big splash in Chenzhou City and earn a lot of money..
