Gu Yunzhou was supposed to be dead, but he came back.
And he brought home a woman dressed in Western clothes.
The woman said, “Gu Yunzhou, you promised to marry me! I won’t be anyone’s concubine!”
Gu Yunzhou said, “I thought she’d remarried! Plenty of legitimate wives in prominent families have it worse than concubines!”
Madam Gu said, “You should know your place. What man doesn’t have several wives and concubines?”
Shen Nanzhi said, “Gu Yunzhou, have you forgotten how you begged to marry me three years ago?”
“Since you’ve shown me no kindness, don’t blame me for showing you none!”
Xu Xiangwen said, “Xiao Zhier, divorce him and come with me!”
Shen Nanzhi said, “All right.”
Gu Yunzhou said, “Nanzhi, I regret it. You’re still the one I love!”
Shen Nanzhi laughed. “Too late. I’m the military governor’s wife now.”
