Originally, Ah Qiu was nothing, but Xie Li first straightened up his attitude, explaining that he was just grateful and pitiful for the woman. Mrs. Lin was grateful for the latter's kindness in saving her husband, and treated her leniently. Originally, Xie Li wanted to treat the latter
It's enough to live out the house and provide her with money and assets to live comfortably. However, Mrs. Lin understands that a woman living alone outside the home, even if she has money, is not stable and will be easily missed. If the Xie family arranges for someone to protect her, she won't be able to bear it.
It would be more likely to lead to scandal if others were to check it, so it would be better to just leave it in the yard.
After all, Mrs. Lin also looks delicate, delicate, very virtuous, and quite attractive.
In the end, Lin, who had always been weak, made a decisive move and persuaded Xie Li to include him.
Although it is a consideration between the couple, it is still somewhat concerning to the children.
Ming Dai was distracted, and Xie Zhixiu felt it was inappropriate. After all, children cannot ask their father whether he has taken a concubine or not. This is filial piety. If word spread, it would harm Ming Dai's reputation, so he came to persuade her, but Ming Jin was rejected.
Hit.
"I don't understand. Even though my father has decided that way, she still has to arrange for someone to come in. She is obviously sad too."
"Probably because she is the mistress."
Ming Jin said lightly, Ming Dai was a little confused.
"As a mistress, what you have to consider is the stability of the family. Your own grievances are the last priority. The third aunt uses her own concessions to calm down hidden dangers."
Mingdai actually understands, but she has grown up in the best environment where her parents love each other since she was a child, so she can't accept it.
"Does being a wife have to be like this?"
Ming Jin remained silent, then sighed.
"You have to remember that in the Xie family, among the main family and the side families, there is only one wife and no concubine in the yard, and only the third uncle. And among all the families, like our Xie family, there are only a few who have direct descendants and nobles.
Many people spoil their concubines and destroy their wives."
"Don't set too high expectations for yourself, otherwise you won't be disappointed in the future."
Although Ming Jin hopes that all his sisters will have excellent marriages, he also knows what reality is.
Mingdai finally accepted it, pursed her lips, turned around and left, saying the next sentence.
"It's not easy to be a woman in this world, but being a man naturally takes a huge advantage."
She still believed that her father was wrong at the beginning, as his uncle criticized him at the beginning - he should not have entered Linzhou City.
Xie Zhixiu: "...."
As a man, he understood his father, but he did not dare to argue with his sister, but he also lamented what Mingjin said just now.
"You and my eldest sister have always been the most transparent people in this family."
Ming Jin smiled and said, "Brother Kezhixiu hates this the most, right? Because of my transparency, my eldest sister had to marry someone she didn't like. Do you think I am someone who only cares about myself and ignores others? You
I am disappointed, so I want to break off our relationship."
Xie Zhixiu's expression froze, and he was about to say something, but saw Ming Jin turn around and leave.
And only one sentence is left.
"So I say, no matter how you do things or treat others, don't set too high expectations. You will always be disappointed in the future. Brother Zhixiu should treat me like this."
Ming Jin left, and his figure gradually disappeared in the shadow of the trees.
Xie Zhixiu, who has become an official and has matured a lot, wriggled his lower lip and finally sighed.
When I was young, I was self-willed and relied on my own assumptions in everything. Once I lost my emotions, I wished I could forget this sister forever.
Later, he thought about how helpless the family was. He didn't understand the affairs of the eldest brother, nor the calculation of power by the eldest brother, nor the selfishness of the second brother, and the eldest sister who finally made the decision under such selfishness.
He actually regretted it, but he couldn't lower his head.
Probably because he found that this sister didn't care whether he bowed his head or not.

A few days later, on the balcony, Ming Jin leaned on the railing and looked at the forbidden attic in the distance. There was a breeze, and her thin shirt clung to her graceful body in the wind, and her hair was lightly stranded, but she ignored a strand of black hair touching her lips, teasing the touch, and just used
Slender fingers casually rolled out the pigeon letter.
The tiny words on it are densely packed, but enough to cover all the confidential information.
Responsibilities held in the Hanlin Academy, whom to be friends with, whom to disagree with, recent historical records compiled, residence, the bookboys and servants serving in the residence...
Meticulous and cautious, but Mingjin still moved his eyes to one of them when he saw the end.
"On the second day of the eleventh month, I stayed behind closed doors, reading and writing. I heard the sound of reading in the neighborhood, but I didn't see anyone... On the fifth day of the eleventh month, I went out to Guanzhai Academy to buy books. I didn't bring all the money during the period, so I sent someone from the study home.
To withdraw money...on the seventh day of the lunar month, in response to a hasty imperial edict, I left my residence..."
During these times, she was in Linzhou City, especially on the fifth day of the lunar month, when she was arrested and thrown into the Blood Refining Sect's lair and thrown into prison. That time, she met Lin Shu.
"Lin Shu and Xu Qiubai, their height and back are so similar."
Ming Jin closed the secret letter, packed it up, and walked into the room. When he pressed the secret letter on the table, he glanced at it and wrote it on several pieces of drawing paper.
There are four pictures in total, two very similar back pictures and two very similar palm pictures.
She looked at it with deep eyes.
Knock, knock, knock!
Hit the third time.
She said softly, "But the smell is different."
There are also differences in personality, tone of voice, and even subtle body habits.
Based on her own subjective judgment and many details of external investigations, the overall description is - similar on the outside, but very different on the inside.
The most important thing is that Lin Shu has martial arts skills, but Xu Qiubai does not.
Recalling the day when she and the other person fell into the secret room and fell to the ground and lay on each other's body, she seemed to have accidentally held down the other person's wrist for the first time and felt the other person's heart and breathing.
It is actually possible to tell whether he is really a weak scholar or a master with martial arts skills.
She had doubts at that time, but the results of the pulse test told her that she was overly worried.
The current investigation results also show that the other party does not have the conditions to appear in Linzhou City.
You can't separate yourself.
But what if the opponent is not Lin Shu, but someone who only uses his brain but not his hands behind the scenes?
Ming Jin originally wanted to investigate Xu Qiubai with all her strength, but one night before leaving Quanshan, she was suddenly diverted by a piece of news.
Feiying, the spy of the Tengu who stayed in Linzhou City, reported something in a letter - although most of the five thousand Wujia troops in Linzhou City returned with them, only a few people were left to guard and wait to hand over to the court personnel, but the hanging soul coffin
There seems to be a mysterious figure over there who has bypassed the Wujia Army and sneaked into the underground maze.
The spy originally wanted to investigate the other party's purpose and identity, but he didn't expect that the underground maze collapsed inexplicably.
Ming Jin immediately took out Jiang Wenkai's secret message box, thoughtfully.
Is anyone looking for this?
If you can't find it, you just blow it up, not wanting others to notice the slightest trace.
Generally speaking, this kind of practice-the initiator has a guilty conscience?

"Quanshan is the best hot spring mountain in Zhao State. I heard that taking a dip in the hot springs above can prolong your life!"
Sitting on the carriage heading to Quanshan, Mingyue couldn't control her mouth and kept talking all the way.
Ming Dai glanced at her and didn't say anything. She just said, "I heard that you were the first to know that I fainted in the West Pavilion from crying?"
These words mean a lot.
The bright moon suddenly became quiet.
No one can save her because Ming Jin will not ride with them this time.
Chapter completed!
