Young Marshal: Many children bring more blessings, marry a wife who is as powerful as the world - Chapter 17

Chapter 17 Big Brother, Sister-in-Law… Really Tempting!

Zhang Xueming was shocked. Marrying within the family could easily result in deformed children. Historically, the Habsburg dynasty that ruled Europe eventually perished due to continuous incestuous marriages. For the sake of his family!

At this moment, Zhang Xueming immediately drew out his pistol and looked at Zhang Shuzhen. Let her die if she must!

Anyway, he hadn’t invested too many feelings in her. Fortunately, there had been no system prompt these past few days. If she was really pregnant, things would get complicated!

But in the next moment, he realized and quickly checked the family tree. Soon, Zhang Xueming breathed a sigh of relief.

“Good, we’re five generations apart!”

In both medicine and law, relatives within three generations cannot marry. He and Zhang Shuzhen were already five generations apart, so there was no impact on their offspring.

However, according to the family’s generational system, Zhang Shuzhen’s father and his elder brother’s son were of the same generation. That meant… wouldn’t she have to call him “Grandpa”?

“Ugh—”

At this moment, Zhang Shuzhen had no idea how close she was to the gates of death.

She curiously asked, “Grandpa… what’s wrong? Why did you suddenly pull out your gun?”

Zhang Xueming chuckled and put the shotgun back in its case.

“Nothing, I just thought of something particularly interesting!”

“Come! Call me ‘Grandpa’ and let me hear it!”

What’s there to be afraid of?

Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu were cousins, and they could still be intimately involved! Why couldn’t he?

…

“Ruhua! How is the master doing?”

In another carriage, Yu Fengzhi lazily lay on the soft couch. She was three months pregnant. Though her health was good, the travel still made her uncomfortable. But at least, now that Zhang Xueming had found Zhang Shuzhen, he no longer troubled her. She no longer had to worry about jaw pain.

Upon hearing her mistress’s question, the maid Ruhua blushed and replied.

“The master is fine. The ginseng soup you gave him has been drunk, and he says you are very considerate.”

“But…”

“But what?”

Yu Fengzhi quickly sat up, afraid that Zhang Xueming might dislike something.

Ruhua blushed and said, “It’s not about the young master, it’s about me!”

“What happened to you?”

“The young master said my name doesn’t sound nice. He wants to change it from Ruhua to Rulan.”

Ruhua is such a lovely name. Why would he suddenly want to change it to ‘Rulan’?

Yu Fengzhi pondered silently but kept her face calm.

“Let him change it. It’s fine.”

“After all, you’ll be a member of the Zhang family. Whatever the master wants to call you, just go with it!”

Zhang Shuzhen didn’t know the modern cultural references. At least for now, as long as Zhang Xueming was happy, everything was fine. Upon hearing this, the two concubine maids, Ruhua and Ruyue, exchanged a glance of resignation. They couldn’t understand.

They had thought that, as maids serving the pregnant mistress, they would surely be the ones chosen to accompany the young master. The two of them were rare identical twin sisters and could be considered extraordinarily beautiful.

Yet, after the first few times when the young master was quite enthusiastic, he later preferred a female bandit over them. If Zhang Xueming had been a useless playboy, they would have been fine with that. But Zhang Xueming was an energetic and handsome soldier. They had felt his powerful force. Now, the two sisters were distressed!

Seemingly understanding the two maids’ thoughts, Yu Fengzhi smiled gently.

“What are you two anxious about?”

“You don’t know the master’s body, do you? Even if Zhang Shuzhen is tough, how long can she endure?”

“Don’t let it be that you two eat too much and then throw up! That would be embarrassing!”

Hearing this, Ruhua and Ruyue suddenly had a glimmer of understanding. Their elder sister was right!

Even if Zhang Shuzhen was skilled in martial arts, how could she possibly withstand the young master?

…

“Do you want to eat something?”

“No, I can’t eat anymore!”

At this moment, Zhang Shuzhen rolled her eyes and just wanted to open the window for some fresh air.

Eat?

She had already eaten enough!

But Zhang Xueming found it strange. It had been three days, and there was still no sign of pregnancy from Zhang Shuzhen.

Was it because her body couldn’t conceive?

Or had he been too hasty?

Zhang Xueming opened the carriage flap.

“Ma Maoxun, where is the team now?”

“Report, Young Master! We are about to reach Kuan Chengzi (Changchun)!”

Zhang Xueming furrowed his brows. They had been out for a week, and only half of the journey was completed.

“Why is the team moving so slowly?”

Ma Maoxun’s face darkened.

“Young Master, we’ve captured quite a few prisoners these past two days. There are more than 5,000 prisoners in the team now, and it’s hard to pick up speed!”

“Should we rest for two days outside Kuan Chengzi?”

“I heard a famous actress has arrived in Kuan Chengzi. Her name is…”

“No need! We must keep moving!”

Zhang Xueming waved his hand, about to turn the carriage around. But then, he seemed to remember something and stopped.

“Wait, what did you just say?”

“We should rest for two days?”

“Not that! The next sentence!”

“A famous actress has arrived in Kuan Chengzi!”

“What’s her name?”

“I think it’s… Gu Ruiyu!”

Gu Ruiyu?

At this, Zhang Xueming laughed.

From his memory, in a few years, his elder brother Zhang Liuzi would meet this beautiful woman during a bandit suppression mission and marry her as a second concubine. But now, the bandit-suppression task had become his.

As for this second concubine…

“Big Sister-in-law already caught her!”

“This second sister-in-law… I won’t let her go!”

“Big Brother, your wife… is really tempting!”
