After playing with temper for a while, Shuang'er still let me in the house.

Of course, I was not the only one who entered the house, and Xiaoju and Xiaolian also followed him in. It was cold at night, so the door must not be open. There was only Shuang'er in the boudoir. I, a big man, went in and closed the door. It was not appropriate to say anything. Even during the day, this door could not be closed. If someone knew about it, he would definitely be gossiped about it.

If you want to close the door, you must be like now, with a maid following you. If someone is next to you, you will not be alone and you will not be gossiped about it.

However, this situation is also different. If it were Bi Jin, even if there was a maid on the side, people would gossip. There is no way, who made him famous in some aspects and couldn't believe it?

Shuang'er's house is similar in structure to Bi Jin's house, both in one outer hall and one bedroom. Shuang'er sat in the main seat of the outer hall, using the light of the electric light to polish her gun. The previous few times I came here, she also sat in the outer hall like this, either studying or doing other things.

The door of the bedroom is tightly closed, and there is a curtain blocking the door. I remember Bi Jin told me that the young ladies in Yuanxingcheng get up at dawn. After getting up, they finish dressing and leave the bedroom. As long as they don’t encounter any unexpected situations, they will only go back to the bedroom while they are sleeping.

The so-called unexpected situation is that the clothes are dirty and must be changed, or the hair is messy and the makeup is incomplete, and you need to re-dress. Or you encounter sad things and want to find a place to cry, otherwise you will never go back to the bedroom before going to bed.

Bi Jin said that this is not a rigid rule or a rule in the city. According to legend, for a while, women in the upper class in Yuanxing City were very lazy, so lazy that they could not get up even after midday and never leave the bedroom all day.

Men in Yuanxingcheng generally believe that lazy women will harm their family business. In fact, until now, there is a proverb circulating in Yuanxingcheng, saying, "Laggy husbands destroy family, lazy wives destroy family."

People in Yuanxing believe that mothers have a greater impact on children than fathers. If the father is lazy, it is just that the family life is not good, and they can only destroy the family. If the mother is lazy, they will not educate the children. If the child is not educated by the mother and does not have the right example, they will not learn to be ignorant and only know how to eat, drink and play. Children are the future of the family. If the child becomes ignorant and only knows how to eat, drink and play, the family will naturally be destroyed.

Therefore, Yuanxing people would say that lazy husbands destroy the family and lazy wife destroy the family. It is said that during that period, as long as the daughter of a family was still lying in the bedroom in broad daylight, the daughters of this family could not get married. For the sake of happiness in marriage, the young ladies could only get up early and try to stay in the bedroom as little as possible, so as not to gain a bad reputation and not get married.

Over time, the young ladies in Yuanxingcheng developed this habit. They got up at dawn and could only sleep when they were dark. They would not go back to the bedroom if they had nothing to do. Even if they were studying, they would not stay in the bedroom. When the young ladies became noble ladies, they also educated their daughters in this way. This kind of thought was passed down from generation to generation and became what they are now.

Bi Jin said that for the unmarried ladies, the bedroom can only be a place to sleep, dress up, or cry. Even if they have to be intimate with their beloved men, they will not open the bedroom door. They either go to the man’s house, go to a hotel, or rent a house specially designed for intimacy outside, and in short, they cannot go back to the bedroom.

The girls in civilian families do not have this habit. However, the daughters in civilian families do not have the chance to be lazy in bed until noon. Generally, the family wakes up before dawn. Children under six can sleep for a while, so they don’t want to sleep if they are over six years old. They have to help their parents clean up the bed and make fires.

After breakfast, those who have the conditions to go to school will go to school, and those who don’t have the conditions to go to school will help at home. Either help adults do things, clean, and patch them, or take their younger brothers and sisters. If you are engaged, you have to go to the man’s house every now and then to help with work, and there are few free time.

"Hey! Are you here to visit me or to visit the door!"

When I was in a daze, the sound of Shuang'er slamming the table stabbed into my ears. I was startled and quickly retracted my thoughts and squeezed out a flattering smile to Shuang'er.

"Of course I'm here to see you."

"I don't need you to see!" Shuang'er turned her face and said, "You go! I don't want to see you!"

"Hehe...that...are you angry?"

"Angry? Why am I angry?" She turned her head and looked at me angrily: "Who do you think you are? Do you have the value to make me angry for you? Hum!"

Ha...worth...

I don’t know why, but this word makes me feel very uncomfortable. I feel a little painful in my heart and my emotions become unstable - no, actually I know, I know why I feel this way.

For the Bi family, I am not a son-in-law, but a person who can make friends and use it. To put it bluntly, I am a valuable person. When it is valuable, they can look at me in front of me. If it is worthless, they will abandon me without hesitation.

If this sentence is said from other people, I may not feel hurt. However, if it was Bi Jin or Shuang'er, I would feel hurt. Because I have feelings for them, if they only regard me as a value, I would feel hurt.

I know that Bi Jin would not say that. If he really regarded me as value, when his cousin entered the bureau, he would lend me money directly and let me owe others favors, rather than taking me to find Si Congpo; if he really regarded me as value, when he reselled arms, he would not tell me his ideas at all, and he would also make me account for 40% of the profit.

A job like running errands can be done by others. Even if others report tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of yuan when running errands, it is better than just giving 40% of the profit directly to others. As long as he doesn't say it, I would never have imagined. Our relationship was already very good at that time. As long as we have this relationship, even if I become a prosperous future and become a marquis and a prime minister in the future, he can come to me to do business. Isn't it more cost-effective to give me money and gifts when doing business?

So, Bi Jin is sincerely doing my best and really trying to make friends with me. He does not regard me as a dog, as a pawn, or something, but really treats me as a friend, brother.

But what about Shuang'er? What does she treat me as?

In her eyes, what am I? A man who has to accept family interests? A courtier who once had a humble identity but now has a bright future? Or something else?

Xiaoju said before that she "liked" me so much, but I didn't feel it at all. If it weren't for this, how could I think Xiaoju had misunderstood?

I knew that she was just talking angry words, not that meaning. But it aroused my thoughts and forced me to reexamine my relationship with Bi Jin, Shuang'er, and the Bi family.

Bi Jin is my brother, that's enough.

For Shuang'er, I am not necessary. For me, Shuang'er is not necessary.

For the Bi family, I can use it. But for me, the Bi family is useless. Because the person who made me rich is Bi Jin, not the Bi family, and I have never received any feelings for the Bi family until now.

And for me now, marrying Shuang'er is more harmful than good. With Shuang'er here, it is very troublesome to marry a wife or take a concubine. The most important thing is that the eldest wife of the Bi family, namely Bi Jin and Shuang'er's mother, is a dangerous person. To be honest, I really don't want such a dangerous mother-in-law.
