Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 171

Ye Xi stood in the center of the bridge and looked into the distance. In addition to the docked ships on the river, there were also ships approaching and departing.

This economic lifeline of the Great Zhou is so prosperous, but it has nothing to do with her.

She suddenly felt very lonely. Although Xia Mu and Dong Ju were by her side, they were Wei Jue's people and she could not tell them many things.

In the past, she had Pei Zhu in her husband's family and her parents and brothers in her parents' family, but now she is really alone.

In modern times, she wouldn't have to worry even if she was alone in a city, as she could make friends on her own. But nowadays, communication is inconvenient and even going out is restricted, so she can't make friends at all.

She began to understand why the women in those big houses or palaces fought each other to the death. In addition to competing for favor, to a certain extent it was also because of boredom.

Since they can't be friends with others, they can only become enemies. They constantly perform various dramas to pass the boring days. Every victory will make them proud for a long time, using it to comfort their loneliness.

She stood there for a long time, thinking a lot, and finally gave up the idea of ​​looking for Pei Zhu. Perhaps this way he could live in peace.

The more persistent she is, the harder life will be for the other party. Maybe the other party will even resent her in the future. It is better for them to forget each other than to support each other.

"Girl, it's windy here, let's go back early." Dongju persuaded.

"No, it's rare for a girl to come out."

Xia Mu looked at Dongju with some dissatisfaction. Dongju had just arrived and had no idea how long Ye Xi had been trapped in the mansion.

Then Xia Mu said to Ye Xi, "Miss, I heard that Suhelou has launched new snacks. Why don't we go try them?"

Ye Xi looked at Xia Mu, as if she saw Chun Tao. Chun Tao looked like this when she loved to eat before. She nodded and smiled: "Okay, let's go together."

Wei Jue obviously felt that Ye Xi's mood had improved since he was able to leave the house, and he didn't look at him in a bad mood anymore.

He talked and laughed with Xia Mu. Besides playing leaf games, he also read books. He regretted not letting her leave the house earlier.

What surprised him even more was that Ye Xi became very proactive in bed, not hiding her expression of enjoyment, which made him feel extremely happy every time.

He was both happy and worried. He was happy because he really enjoyed it, but he was worried because he was afraid that this was another conspiracy of Ye Xi.

Ye Xi didn't know about Wei Jue's change of mentality. She acted like that because she had figured it out.

If it comes, just accept it. Since you can't escape it, just adapt to it.

She treated Wei Jue as a free duck and was able to squander his money at will. Apart from being a mean person and liking to set rules for her, he was generally a good person.

At least he has good looks and is quite good in some aspects, which makes him much better than those dirty people with fat brains and intestines.

Ye Xi is very vulgar and she makes no secret of the fact that she likes money.

Who doesn't like money? She especially loves gold. When she is bored, she likes to take it out and look at it. Even Wei Jue knows about this hobby.

Wei Jue had never seen anyone who was so open about his love for pornographic things. Although people die for money, people nowadays, especially those of noble character, are more restrained.

He couldn't understand why Ye Xi, who loved money so much, remained unmoved when he asked Yang Jian to test her. This didn't affect his attempt to please her, so he would reward Ye Xi with some gold or valuable jewelry from time to time.

What he couldn't figure out was an easy choice for Ye Xi. She had a loving husband and a harmonious family.

Although the money is not much for her, she has enough food and clothing, so she is a winner in life. Why should she be someone else's plaything?

Now, she is forced to become a plaything and has nothing left, even her parents' home. Money is the only sense of security she can get, so why should she pretend to be noble?
