You don’t know if you don’t know, ancient times are so amazing

In November, the cold wind was as cold as a knife, and every breath was white. Minglan began to feel lazy again, clinging to the warm bed and unwilling to move. Unexpectedly, Cuiping came and asked her to go to Shou'an Hall. Minglan

With two painful whimpers, Danju coaxed her to get off the kang and put on a thick fur coat, and Minglan stopped shivering. ~ When they arrived at Shou'an Hall, they saw the old lady sitting upright on the kang, with a thick coat covering her knees.

He was wearing a thick blanket with python thread and money. He was holding a piece of paper in his hand and looked a little nervous.

Minglan immediately put away her laziness, walked forward, took a cup of warm ginseng tea from Cuimei on the side, slowly placed it on the kang table, and said softly: "Grandma, what's wrong?"

The old lady finally came to her senses, and with confusion in her eyes, she handed over the piece of paper in her hand: "Early in the morning, the He family sent this. Take a look for yourself."

Minglan placed herself as close to the hot bed as possible, unfolded the letter, and read it carefully——

The letter was written by Mrs. He and seemed to be in a hurry. First, she said that the Cao family could no longer stay in the capital and would soon leave the capital and return to their hometown. Then, Cao Jinxiu sought death and revealed the truth after being rescued.

It turned out that when she was a concubine in Liangzhou, she was given Xiuhua Decoction by the first wife of that family, and she was no longer able to have children. She did not tell anyone because she was afraid that her family would be sad.

Now Mrs. He wants to rush over to find out what is going on, and will come over to explain in the afternoon.

Minglan slowly put down the letter and began to think quickly. Mrs. Sheng slowly leaned on the pillow at the head of the kang, holding a celadon longevity peach and double phoenix warmer in her hand: "Ming Ya'er, look at... this matter

How to say?"

Minglan sat next to the old lady, thinking about the words: "The other words don't matter, except for the first two. The Cao family is leaving Beijing, and the second is that the Cao family's cousin may not be able to give birth."

The old lady closed her eyes and nodded slowly: "Exactly, then things will change again."

Cao Jinxiu is infertile, which means that it is difficult for her to find a suitable family to marry. A widower who only has a child and a daughter does not have a long life. If the family is well-off, the widowed daughter who has not returned to her natal family may remarry, but

With the current situation of the Cao family, there is no good scholarly widower to marry. In this case, only the He family can take care of her.

However, if it is a concubine who is infertile, what threat can she pose to the main wife? In addition, the Cao family has to return to their place of origin, so such a concubine is basically a decoration.

When the grandfather and grandson thought of this, they couldn't help but feel excited.

The old lady put down the heater, gently held the ginseng tea, and slowly moved the ginseng slices with the lid of the bowl: "This time... we can't let go easily. No matter what the He family says, we will let it go first." Minglan slowly said

's nodded.

After lunch, the grandfather and grandson rested for a while. At the beginning of the second quarter, Mrs. He hurried over. It seemed that she was in a hurry. She kept drinking warm tea. Mrs. Sheng was worried.

Her face remained calm, and Minglan hid in the back room as usual, listening carefully through the curtain.

After a few words of greeting, Old Mrs. Sheng said: "You take a good breath before talking, who is chasing you from behind?!"

Mrs. He glared and said: "Which one? It's my little enemy! This time he offended your beloved little girl, your mother, your aunt, and your relatives! He was so ruthless!"

"Don't say anything and hide it. Hurry up." I just said I wouldn't push, but now I did.

Mrs. He put down the tea bowl, calmed down, and said slowly to Mrs. Sheng: "I have always pitied my daughter-in-law for being a young widow, and she is sick and weak. I have rarely been harsh to her over the years, but this time Cao Cao

The family was in trouble, so I didn't force her very much. I just wanted to give up the idea slowly. Who knows, this time it was my filial grandson who took the risk! After he returned from your house that time, he went to the study privately.

I found his grandfather. My old man only liked writing and writing and never bothered to deal with matters in the inner house. This time, Brother Hong told the whole story and begged his grandfather to go to Yousi Yamen and expel the Cao family from the capital.

!”

Old Mrs. Rao Sheng had seen a lot, and was shocked. She was stunned for a long time before she composed herself: "How is this...Brother Hong is such a filial child! How could he hide it from his mother..."

Mrs. He's mouth was dry as she spoke, and she took another sip of tea before saying: "It's not just that! A few days ago, after checking, the Yamen issued a notice, ordering the Cao family to return to their place of origin next month, otherwise the crime will be increased! Cao Cao's crime will be increased!

The aunt came crying and begged, but the official documents from the Yamen were sent out, what do I have at home? My daughter-in-law thought about it for a few days, and then she went to beg the old man. The old man had hindered me and Hongwen until now, and now I see my daughter-in-law.

In order to repent, he pointed at her nose and cursed her, saying directly, "You are my He family, not Cao! The Cao family has been corrupt and deserved it. They just wanted to help out of love for relatives. They even kicked their noses."

It's embarrassing, the He family is no longer in peace, and this kind of ungrateful thing should be driven out long ago! If you really care about the Cao family, just write a letter of divorce and go to the Cao family to spend time.' The daughter-in-law was

He fainted and didn't dare to say a word after he woke up!"

Minglan looked down at her hands in the back room. Well, she should be worried about He's mother's health, but she still felt very happy. Every time she looked at He's mother's crying and indecisive face, she felt uncomfortable.

Old Mrs. Sheng actually felt very comfortable, but she couldn't cheer loudly, so she softly persuaded him a few times and expressed concern about He's mother's health.

Mrs. He put down the tea bowl and sighed: "Fortunately, my daughter-in-law didn't know about it. If she knew that it was Brother Hong's idea to drive the Cao family out, otherwise I'm afraid something might happen." In the next few days, the Cao family was in chaos.

They had to clean up, but they were still complaining about poverty. I thought I could send away the god of plague, so I gave them some money to buy some land. Who knows, something went wrong again yesterday!"

When Mrs. He thought about this, her scalp became numb with annoyance, but she really felt sorry for her grandson, so she simply said: "The Cao family is leaving, and they are fighting to survive every day to get their cousin to come in."

, Brother Hong refused. Seeing that my daughter-in-law was half-dead from illness, I came up with an idea to ask the two of them to go to a village outside the city to recuperate for a few days before coming back! The Cao family couldn't find anyone, and there was nothing they could do...Yesterday,

The Cao family suddenly called the door and said that their daughter had sought death. After she was rescued from the beam, she confessed the truth and said that she could no longer have children. If Brother Hong could not show mercy to her, she would have no choice but to die. I was frightened.

Jump, while reporting the news to Brother Hong, I went to the Cao family to personally feel the pulse of the Cao family girl..."

"How?" Mrs. Sheng was nervous and her throat was tight.

Mrs. He shook her head, her expression seemed to be pitiful, but her tone was very sure: "I checked carefully and found that it is indeed infertile. It is said that during the year when she was a concubine, the wife fed her every three days.

Not to mention the overbearing and vicious properties of Xiuhua Decoction, I even had a miscarriage during this period. Taking it like this will ruin your body!"

Minglan still trusted Mrs. He's medical skills and human skills. As she relaxed for a while, she suddenly felt an unspeakable sour feeling. She was a little sad and sighed. Only now did Minglan understand the look in Cao Jinxiu's eyes.

Deep despair.

Old Mrs. Sheng was silent for a long time without saying anything. Mrs. He sighed and continued: "Only then did the Cao family's concubine know the details of her daughter, and she fainted from tears. Later, Brother Hong arrived, and after learning about this,

He stood beside me blankly, thought for a long time, and agreed to let the Cao girl in."

Mrs. Sheng was not angry this time, like gunpowder that had been dampened. Her tone was soft and helpless: "...It's nothing, it's hard for Brother Hong." Mrs. He interrupted: "The matter is not over yet!"

Mrs. Sheng was puzzled.

Mrs. He picked up the cooled tea and wanted to drink it. She immediately asked Mrs. Sheng to take it away and asked the maid to change it to warm tea. Mrs. He picked up the tea bowl and moistened her lips and said: "Brother Hong said that he is willing to take care of Biao."

Girl, I will ensure that she has food and drink for as long as she lives, but there is one condition... that is, from now on, if she helps with emergencies, she will not be considered a serious relative. Aunt Cao was so angry that she slapped Brother Hong!

"

Mrs. Sheng's eyes lit up, she straightened up immediately and raised her brows: "Brother Hong, you really dare to say that!"

What He Hongwen probably meant was that he didn't want his wife to be in trouble with her aunt, and it would be difficult to deal with the relationship between the wives and concubines, or to control the family affairs. However, Mrs. He heard something else.

Meaning. ~

Mrs. He said in a deep voice: "What you said is ruthless, but I think it's good. A concubine who can't have children must have her heart towards her mother's family. When the time comes, the Cao family will come back to arrange the family tree, and they will be fighting against the autumn wind every day for money.

, can the He family still have peace? Regardless of who Brother Hong will marry in the future, this matter must be explained clearly. We can’t just take pity on a troublemaker and bury it in the family. I immediately asked Brother Hong to explain the matter in black and white.

Write it all down, when will the Cao family sign and seal it, and when will the cousin enter the He Mansion!"

After finishing the long words, the grandfather and grandson both inside and outside the house began to ponder. Once this document was established, they basically had no worries. In fact, this kind of trouble for the Cao family is not difficult to solve.

Mrs. He saw that Mrs. Sheng had obviously relaxed her attitude and was not in a hurry to press for an answer. After chatting for a while, she stood up and left. Minglan opened the curtain and slowly came out of the back room and sat beside her grandmother's kang.

, the grandfather and grandson were speechless for a moment. After a long time, the old lady sighed: "Brother Hong..." She couldn't say any more, and then said to Minglan, "Ming Ya'er, what do you say?"

"...My granddaughter doesn't know, what does grandma say?" Minglan hugged the old lady's arm.

The old lady looked at Minglan's bright face and felt that no girl from any family was worthy of her own girl. After thinking about it again and again, she said cautiously: "This is the best situation."

Many images flashed through Minglan's mind in an instant, including Hua Lan's hidden sorrow in the corner of her eyes, Mo Lan's forced smile, Haishi's relief when he saw Yang Hao drink the soup every time after going to bed, Wang Shi's struggles over the years,

So much so that they fought openly and secretly between their brothers and sisters... Then, she nodded slowly.

The advantage of the He family is not that it is very prominent and wealthy, but that the overall conditions are very balanced and harmonious. No matter how prominent and wealthy the family is, if there is a picky mother-in-law, difficult sisters-in-law on the left and right, and a husband-in-law who may not always be supportive, then

Even the Heavenly Palace of the Jade Emperor cannot live a good life, and the He family...

Looking over the years, He's mother has a gentle temper and is easy to talk to, and she is so weak that she is basically unable to move. The new daughter-in-law can take charge of the family as soon as she gets married. The He family's big and second bedrooms are in better condition and will not cause trouble. He Hongwen has a rich family fortune.

, I can still make a lot of money on my own, I don’t have to worry about anything, I am responsible, I can care for others, I have made it clear that I am facing Minglan, and when Mr. He retires and leaves Beijing, he will almost be single. When the time comes, he will close the courtyard door and Xiaori will be alone.

After that, the new wife can make her own decisions.

You don’t have to look at your mother-in-law’s face, you don’t have to deal with complicated relatives from all directions, you can be financially independent and live independently. Where can you find such good things! And after accepting the infertile Cao Jinxiu, He’s mother will probably be embarrassed to say anything in front of Minglan in the future.

; To put it harshly, Mother He's life is limited.

With all these 'advantages', Cao Jinxiu's existence seems to be nothing; maybe... when He Hongwen goes out to make money in the future, she can play cards with the sad-faced Cao Jinxiu? Maybe she can win two games.

Help her forget her past misfortune, Amen!



Several times, Minglan suspected that she was the opposite of Rulan. Every time she was happy, Rulan would always be unlucky.

On this day, Minglan thought that the weather would get colder in the next few days and the water would be covered with thick ice, so after greeting the old lady and Mr. Wang, she took Kong Wu with her fishing rod and basket.

The powerful Xiao Tao went fishing in the small pond; it must have been cold and the fish in the water were all stunned. Minglan easily caught seven or eight fat fish. Before leaving the pond, she smiled and said to the water: "

Have a good winter vacation, and I’ll come back to play with you in the spring.”

Send the fish to the kitchen, and designate three of the particularly large ones to be made into earthenware watercress fish, two particularly energetic ones to be made into tomato sauce fish fillets, and the remaining few are all sliced ​​and grilled into green onion, pepper, and salt fish.

The head was boiled into ginger fish soup; Xiaotao smiled and stuffed thirty big coins to Aunt An, saying thank you for your hard work. Aunt An refused for a long time with a smile on her face, and then patted her chest to ensure the quality of the cooking.

At this time, the little magpie in Rulan's house suddenly ran in. On such a cold day, she was sweating profusely. As soon as she saw Minglan, she hurriedly invited Minglan to Taoranju.

.

At this time, Aunt An was about to kill the fish, and Minglan wanted to check if there was fish fat and fish roe in the fish belly this time. Hearing this, she frowned and said, "Why are you here? Fifth sister wants to embroider again?"

You go back and say, I am making fish soup with her, fish can improve eyesight, and embroidery after eating fish will be even better!"!

The little magpie almost burst into tears. She kept saying no, but couldn't explain why. Minglan saw something was wrong and followed her out. Even so, Minglan still went back to her room first and washed it with some pancreas.

I got rid of the fishy smell on my body and changed into clean clothes before going to Taoran Hall.

When the thick brocade curtain was opened, there was not a single maid in the room. Only Ru Lan was lying on the table crying. Originally, she had no cry at all. She held a handkerchief and sobbed. When she saw Ming Lan coming, she immediately

Minglan rushed forward, grabbed Minglan and cried loudly. Minglan was startled, first pushed Rulan to the kang table, and then asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with Fifth Sister? What's the reason for crying like this?"

?Slowly tell your sister...little magpie, quickly get a basin of hot water with your girl to wash your face!"

The little magpie felt a little relieved and went out in response; Ru Lan wiped the nose of Crying Sleeve, and then started to talk about it. It turned out that Cai Lan suddenly came to Sheng Mansion, talked to the old lady and Wang, and even asked her

He also called her, saying that he wanted to betroth her to Gu Tingye!

That cousin who is determined to marry his legitimate daughter is likely to become her brother-in-law?! Minglan opened her mouth wide and couldn't help but wonder. The ancient times were so wonderful. No matter how rich her imagination was, she couldn't keep up with the changes in this world.

The author has something to say:

Dear enthusiastic readers, you have written many long comments to me. In the past few days, I have not dared to go out casually because I would be photographed. I am also busy thinking about the wedding, so I will not reply to you for the time being. I will reply and send you messages later.

Share, everyone.

Finally, today is Sunday, the male lead can be revealed, so don’t worry.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&7

The author has something to say:

The following words were written three hours after this chapter was posted.

While I was typing, I was reading everyone's comments. I felt very angry and aggrieved.

First of all, I said it at the beginning. There is no perfect male protagonist in this article, or even a perfect female protagonist. I just hope that everything develops in a reasonable way. I cannot write about an ancient man who is infatuated and strong until death.

It’s not that I don’t know how to write about fantasy characters, but they won’t appear in this article.

Secondly, I am disgusted with some of the readers’ comments.

Xiao Xiu or Gu Er are often demoted to be worthless. Gu Er will not say anything for now. Xiao Xiu, as an ordinary ancient boy, he received a normal ancient education. Taking concubines was a common thing in ancient times. Don't do it again.

Tell me, there were many famous people in ancient times who did not take concubines. Compared with the tens of thousands of ancient men, that is just an example!

In any case, after a series of developments, Xiaoxiu did everything he could.

Thirdly, why do some readers think that Xiaoxiu must have a deep love for his cousin? I have never said that! Looking at Xiaoxiu’s actions, he has made up his mind to drive away the entire Cao family. This is quite right.

Do you have a deep affection for your cousin? The Cao family is a prisoner's family. What will happen to a sterile woman like Cao Jinxiu? Her future brother and sister-in-law may not be able to support her for a lifetime. Don't talk about family. In ancient times,

Many nunneries with no background are actually prostitutes. Accepting a cousin as a concubine is just to give her a way to survive (Xiaoxiu thinks), and has nothing to do with the relationship between childhood sweethearts!

Maybe everyone is too influenced by Qiong Yao. A normal boy is skinny and ugly on one side, and beautiful and affectionate on the other. Why would Xiaoxiu continue to pity his cousin after marriage, and even treat Minglan badly for her cousin?

Many readers simply imagined Qiong Yao-style scenes of brain damage. One moment, the cousin and the cousin exchanged their feelings, the other moment the cousin looked like a little white flower, and the next moment the cousin harmed Minglan's child! Please, is Minglan a dead person, is Xiaoxiu an idiot?

?

It makes me feel aggrieved to assume that this kind of situation appears in my article!

Again, I regret that some readers have different year standards.

Please note that the background of this article is not modern. Why should an ancient concubine ask her husband to keep her body as pure as jade? Why should she ask her husband not to take concubines? I think I have never given readers any hint in this regard. Whether it is a long cypress or a gold ingot,

If there are women other than wives, why do everyone have different requirements when it comes to Minglan?

When Minglan showed a little bit that she could accept concubines, the readers started shouting and killing her, and called all kinds of ugly words, such as "JIAN" and the like. It was very ugly, and some even directly called me the author!

There are so many kinds of articles on the Internet, and those heroines who face their husbands and concubines with a calm smile, how can everyone tolerate it, but here, even I have been scolded, what kind of book is this?

I'm furious!

Finally, I can honestly tell you that Xiaoxiu is not the male protagonist, and what he does is far from "scum". He can do this because he has worked very hard. Readers can accept that a high-ranking person has a concubine.

, but I feel a little sad that Xiaoxiu is always blamed.

It's good that Minglan is a time-traveling girl, but what's so great about a time-traveling girl? Some readers constantly ask Minglan to "persevere to the end", ask Minglan to "noblely reject Xiao Xiu", and ask Minglan to do all kinds of amazing things.

But please! Minglan's status is that of a concubine. The only thing she can rely on is the old lady's favor. All she wants is to survive well, find a living environment that is most comfortable for her, and accept Cao Cao.

My cousin has become 'JIAN'?

Not to mention that Xiao Xiu may not have sex with his cousin, but he has sex with him. Which male protagonists have not had sex with concubines?! They are in ancient times, but they have to follow the behavior patterns of modern people?

My original intention of writing this article is the process of a girl's life and growth. All her psychological changes are normal, and the men around her are also normal. For the HE ending, I slightly beautified a few male characters.

Really, because it is a novel, I still designed a good ending for Minglan.

The offensive words of some readers made me very sad. I found that this article seemed to have lost its original meaning and turned into a place for quarrels and curses. When the plot was unsatisfactory, I would curse people, threaten to abandon the article, and even openly expressed to read it.

Pirate articles. Every time I see these, I just want to return the money to everyone. I don’t want to write anymore. Anyway, I’m not a professional writer, so I’d better complain on my scarf. I just feel sorry for the readers who have always supported me.

.

I endured it very hard. I squeezed out time between work and worked hard to finish typing. When I saw some irritating words, I said to myself "take a deep breath and please calm down" a hundred times a day.

I'm very tired today, so I'm very angry. I want to rest. Maybe everyone's expectations of me are too high, and I can't write something that satisfies everyone. Don't worry, if I don't want to write anymore, I will tell everyone as soon as possible and I will pay you back.

of.
