Episode 8

Wen Yue witnessed Zhao Buyu boarding Zhang Qiniang's carriage with her own eyes, and she was angry that he had not returned all night.In the early morning, Zhao Buyu quietly climbed over the wall and returned home, but his body exuded the scent of rouge, which convinced Wen Yue that he had an affair with Zhang Qiniang. She was so angry that she was unwilling to listen to Zhao Buyu's explanation.Zhao Buyu was extremely anxious and wanted to clarify to Wen Yue, but found that she was no longer willing to pay attention to him.

At this time, Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er also came after hearing the news. They were also suspicious of Zhao Buyu's whereabouts last night.In order to save the situation, Zhao Buyu hurriedly took out iced lychees to please them. The two were immediately attracted and took the lychees aside to share.Wen Yue, on the other hand, was in a heavy heart and had no intention of preparing breakfast. He only gave Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er some money to eat out, and promised to cook for them after returning from the umbrella shop in the evening.Zhao Buyu asked to eat honey tofu, but Wen Yue ignored him.

On the other side, Zhang Qiniang was deeply in love with Zhao Buyu's heroic performance in capturing the Hat Demon, so she invited him to the Nuan Pavilion and tried every means to seduce him.However, Zhao Buyu always sticks to the bottom line, making it clear that he has a family and deeply loves his wife Wen Yue.He offers to help investigate the Hat Monster case, but only for the bounty.This made Zhang Qiniang very angry.

Wen Yue came to Zhang Qiniang early in the morning and wanted to argue with her.But the guys stopped her from entering, and Wen Yue knocked them down easily.Kang Qian came after learning about it and ordered the two newly recruited guards to deal with Wen Yue, but Wen Yue subdued them with only an iron rod and a yam.Kang Qian guessed that Wen Yue came for the house in Wheat Straw Lane, so he greeted her with a smile and invited her in. Zhang Qiniang also came out to greet her in person.

Since Wen Yue didn't return for a long time, Zhao Buyu made dinner by himself.Zhao Mo'er wanted to wait for Wen Yue to come back to make yam porridge, while Zhao Pan'er curiously asked why Zhao Buyu went to help Zhang Qiniang catch the hat demon last night.Zhao Buyu did not dare to tell the truth and could only make up various reasons to cover up.When he learned that Wen Yue had also seen him getting into Zhang Qiniang's carriage, he complained even more, explaining repeatedly that he was just trying to earn reward money to buy a big house.But Zhao Mo'er and Zhao Pan'er didn't believe it at all and sneered at his behavior.

Zhao Li accidentally discovered the one hundred taels of gold and mistakenly thought it was a reward from Zhang Qiniang to Zhao Buyu, reminding him not to earn such ill-gotten gains.This made Zhao Buyu even more speechless.Zhang Qiniang invited Wen Yue to make a facial mask. Wen Yue couldn't wait to know the truth about Zhang Qiniang's visit to Zhao Buyu last night.Only then did Zhang Qiniang find out that Wen Yue was Zhao Buyu's wife, so she sneered at her and deliberately exaggerated that Zhao Buyu peeled lychees for her.Not to be outdone, Wen Yue counterattacked by saying that Zhao Buyu often washed her feet with the same hands used to peel lychees.This made Zhang Qiniang so angry that she was speechless.

In order to calm down the Hat Demon incident, Zhang Qiniang sent Kang Qian to give Wanfu a sum of money, hoping that he could help solve the problem.However, Wanfu disclosed the matter to Gu Zhen and asked him to assist Zhao Buyu in investigating the case.Zhao Buyu discovered some clues during the investigation and went to the women's sumo wrestling ring to inquire about the news.At this time, Zhang Qiniang suddenly appeared and wanted to investigate the case with him, but Zhao Buyu flatly rejected her.
