While boiling the medicine, he slowly told his own experiences, speaking openly without hiding anything, from being transformed into a ghost on the execution ground, to being tried in the underworld, and finally to being matched with a man by the King of Incarnation. He told all his thoughts and ideas.
"If my husband despises me and thinks I am no longer a boudoir girl, you can write me a letter of divorce. I am willing to divorce you." Madeline Siqin collected the medicine juice and poured it into a medium bowl. She sat down on the bed again, stirring the juice with a spoon and moving her lips to blow on it to cool it down.
Although his attitude was gentle, it felt like he was forcing the emperor to abdicate.
"When the King of Hell acts as a matchmaker, how dare I disobey him?" He forced a smile, intending to ease the atmosphere.
"My dear, there is no need to find other excuses. If you don't want to, I won't force you. I owe you." Madeline Siqin put down the bowl and said angrily.
"It's obviously me who owes you, it's a pity that you have no chance of becoming an immortal in this life." Logan Zhuang tried to make amends by saying that how could the other person owe him if he lost his chance of becoming an immortal in the next life because of him.
"If my husband accepts me for this reason, there is no need. I also know the reason why a wife marries a girl from the boudoir. My husband has no choice but to marry me, and I don't want to tie you down. I was able to earn a chance to be an immortal in this life, and now I can earn it again." Madeline Siqin said fiercely.
"I don't agree with this statement. The ancestors said: Marry a virtuous wife. Your virtue is known to the gods. It is a match made in heaven, so how can we go against it? I think your birth is noble and I am trying to get close to you. I feel that I am not a good match for you. If you don't mind, I am willing to be with you forever." In this situation, there was no point in refusing. Logan Zhuang called his wife over and held her hand.
Marrying a good wife who is recognized by ghosts and gods will make you a lot of money.
This is also Logan Zhuang's true thought. Although Madeline Siqin was disfigured, she was really gentle and organized. Marrying her felt like marrying a virtuous wife. As for whether she was a boudoir girl or not, he, a time traveler, didn't care so much.
"If you don't let me down, I won't let you down either." Madeline Siqin could feel the sincerity in Logan Zhuang's words and made a promise.
"Now that I have my wife, I will never have other thoughts." Logan Zhuang was moved by the atmosphere and said this.
"I am not a jealous wife. It's okay for me to like beautiful Concub!nes." Madeline Siqin smiled, pulled her hand away and picked up the medicine again.
...Logan Zhuang was silenced by her words.
After taking a sip of the medicine, Logan Zhuang managed to utter: "Then how can I be considered as having let you down?"
"Divorce your wife." Madeline Siqin's tone didn't change much, but the atmosphere changed a lot.
"Are you thinking about Duke Zhenguo? I'm sorry." In this atmosphere, Logan Zhuang naturally thought of the divorce letter and what happened to Duke Zhenguo's mansion and blurted it out, then immediately realized what nonsense he had said.
"That's right, my dear, why should you apologize? You should scold me." Madeline Siqin handed the cooled medicine to Logan Zhuang's mouth with an expressionless face.
"Well, you and Duke Zhenguo are very affectionate, right?" Logan Zhuang said with some feeling after hearing her description of the situation in Duke Zhenguo's mansion.
"We swore to be buried together even in death." Madeline Siqin said indifferently, and the bowl she was holding began to tremble slightly.
"Don't be sad, Xun will not let you down." Logan Zhuang was good at observing people's expressions, he comforted her, took the bowl of medicine and drank it in small sips.
"I was once someone else's wife, so it's hard for me to accept your kindness. I'm not a girl from the boudoir, so it's hard to verify his true thoughts." Madeline Siqin's body trembled, and she felt a little bitter.
"What's the difference between a boudoir girl and not? I just like married women. I like those who are mature and gentle. I can't say whether my feelings are sincere or not. Whether you trust me or not, it is my responsibility to treat you as my wife. Similarly, if you don't let me down, I will never let you down." Logan Zhuang leaned forward and put the medicine bowl back on the table beside him. He freed his hands to hug Madeline Siqin. His brain was exhausted, but his thoughts were extremely clear.
"How can you like someone else's wife? All married women are unclean. I feel extremely ashamed for having the nerve to remarry as your legal wife." Madeline Siqin touched Logan Zhuang's cheek. The hot temperature made her heart tremble. She knew it was words of comfort, but it still made her happy.
"How could that be? Some people in my hometown just like other people's married women, and they are called Cao thieves. Maybe I can tell you about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. There is no such thing as this country. Unfortunately, I only remember the classic plots and cannot restore them one to one. In this story, there is a prince who particularly likes other people's married women, cough cough..." Logan Zhuang said in a very serious manner, and he couldn't help coughing because his throat was itchy.
"Okay, no need to explain. I believe you. Lie down and I will help you wipe the sweat off your face." Madeline Siqin smiled and took over Logan Zhuang's words.
The towel gently brushed across his cheek. The medicine took effect. Logan Zhuang's eyelids became heavier and heavier. The hand that reached out from the side of the quilt grabbed Si Qinmi's clothes, and he fell asleep again.
Madeline Siqin looked at the sleeping Logan Zhuang and felt a little tired.
There was a bed in the side room, but seeing Logan Zhuang's hands grabbing her clothes, she hesitated for a moment, took off her shoes, lifted the quilt and leaned on the same pillow with Logan Zhuang. Since she had acknowledged the fact of remarriage, it was only natural for them to sleep in the same bed.
Logan Zhuang vaguely felt Si Qinmi in his bed, and he hugged her in a daze. This was his wife. Si Qinmi seemed to have put something on him, but he didn't care. When he woke up the next day, he saw a green fish jade pendant on his chest.
Only a wisp of fragrant breeze was left in the quilt. Madeline Siqin had started to boil medicine for Logan Zhuang early in the morning. Yesterday, she boiled the medicine in the room in order to keep an eye on Logan Zhuang at all times. Today, she went to the kitchen.
Logan Zhuang felt sore all over, but he still followed the sound to the kitchen. He felt much better and didn't need to take medicine anymore.
He walked to the kitchen door, but stood there in a daze.
The beauty has her hair tied up in knots, her oval face is smooth and flawless like the bright moon, she is plump and noble, her pair of charming phoenix eyes, her eyebrows are lightly painted like willows, her brows are furrowed, her cheeks are supported by her features, and her lips are red. She is beautiful, as gorgeous as peach and plum, with a graceful figure, and an ethereal air of a fairy. She is like a peony fairy who has come down to earth, with elegant manners, lotus flowers blooming at every step, and butterflies surrounding her.
The corners of her eyes are hooked and charming, containing the love of half a lifetime. Looking back and gazing, there is so much affection, like honey and peach, heartless but affectionate. It is said that she is charming but not coquettish. Her eyes are moving and her heart is beating. She is sad and resentful. The beauty is obsessed with her and it causes countless disasters.
The plain clothes cannot conceal her fairy-like figure. She stands tall and graceful, elegant and charming, with a natural fragrance and a beautiful figure.
"My dear, you should rest in bed. Why are you looking at me like this? Is there something wrong with me?" The beauty was angry at first, but then she noticed that there was something wrong with Logan Zhuang's eyes, so she said in surprise and confusion.
"So beautiful! How did you recover from your disfigurement?" Logan Zhuang blushed and his heart beat faster.
"Disfigured? Go back to bed first. We'll deal with it slowly after the medicine is boiled." Madeline Siqin said as she helped Logan Zhuang back to bed.
"I'm well now and don't need to take medicine." Logan Zhuang said proactively, not wanting to trouble Si Qinmi to boil the medicine.
The high fever has gone away, and now I only have body aches from overexertion.
"Illness comes like a mountain falling, and goes away like pulling a thread. How can it be so easy?" Touching Logan Zhuang's forehead, the beauty showed a comfortable smile.
Logan Zhuang looked at her cheek, playing with the green fish jade pendant, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
"My dear, what would you like to eat? I will prepare it for you." Thinking about the medicine to be boiled, Madeline Siqin persuaded Logan Zhuang to go back to his room and prepared to go back to the kitchen.
"Rice porridge is fine, ma'am...you don't have to worry." Yesterday, he felt no burden calling the disfigured Madeline Siqin "ma'am", but today, he felt embarrassed calling the beautiful Madeline Siqin "ma'am".
