T-shaped Volume Chapter 44 Guyun comes out of Xiu (Second update!)
Jingyuan remained silent.
The meat that fell off her own body, and the fact that she had raised it for so many years, was also the result of her relationship with that heartless man. How could she be willing to let her stay in this alien place for the rest of her life?
What mother doesn’t want her daughter to have a good marriage and a good place to live? Isn’t this why she temporarily lives here out of helplessness?
It's just that she was also a young lady from an official family in her early years, so she naturally understood that a daughter with a background that could not even be considered as a concubine would not have a good destiny in the future.
After all, it was her and Lin Ruhai's fault, but it was hard for her to accept it falling on her daughter.
The person in front of me is right. If Lin Ruhai really passes away, it will be really difficult for Miaoyu to find a good home in the future. Being a concubine is not a bad thing, but if it doesn't work well, she can only be an ancient Buddha Qingdeng.
She has been keeping this for her entire life, and this is something she will never accept.
She has been like this all her life, accepting her fate when she encounters unkind people, but her daughter cannot be like this. She hopes that her daughter can have a bright future.
"Then how is he going to arrange for Miaoyu?" Jingyuan was silent for a long time before asking. The prayer beads in his hand also returned to normal twisting from the static state.
"Master Tai, it may be too far to say this now, but you have to believe Mr. Lin..."
"Donor Wang, you don't have to tell this to the poor nun. In the past, the poor nun's father's house also had staff like you. They were all capable people who made plans and deceived people. Lin Ruhai can send you here at this time. You must be deeply affected by it.
Take it seriously, the poor nun just needs to say, Miaoyu cannot be used as a concubine! If this can be done, then the poor nun will no longer interfere with Miaoyu's affairs, if..."
There is indeed a big difference between a concubine and a concubine.
A concubine can never become the head wife, but it is possible for a concubine to become the head wife. If the head wife dies or is divorced, it is possible for a concubine to become the head wife.
Similarly, the status of children born by concubines is much higher than that of children born by concubines, and can even be regarded as direct descendants in a certain sense.
Especially in the case where the first wife has no children, according to feudal etiquette, it is a direct marriage. Even if the main wife has direct children, the children born by concubines can obtain greater inheritance rights than the children born by direct children, and their status and power are much higher than those of concubines.
Giving birth to children is also explicitly stipulated in the "Laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty".
Because nuns are often involved in marriages with high-ranking families, their children are often involved in inheritance rights. This inheritance right covers not only the right to inherit property, but also the right to inherit the title and the right to marry.
The concubine's children will have priority. For example, if the legitimate son has passed the imperial examination and is favored by the court, then the concubine's son will naturally get the first right of concubine, ranking before all the concubine's children, unless the court directly appoints it.
Wang Wenyan also realized this and said categorically: "Master, don't worry, how can Mr. Lin let his daughter be a concubine? Even the nobles of the imperial court and the number one scholar in Jinke will never let the daughter of Mr. Lin be a concubine. This is Wenyan's point.
That’s clear!”
Jingyuan felt relieved, "Donor Wang, remember your own words. If Lin Ruhai dares to live up to these words, that poor nun will be shattered to pieces, and his reputation will be ruined in the scholarly world and he will be infamy for thousands of years!"
"Don't worry, Master. Mr. Lin always sticks to his word. How could this happen..."
"Humph, he always keeps his word? How many times have he used sweet words to deceive people's hearts?" As soon as Jingyuan said these words, he felt that he had lost his current identity, and quickly recited a Buddha's name, "In the past, I didn't mention this matter.
Look at Lin Ruhai herself."
"Then Master, can you tell Wen Yan where Miss Miaoyu is practicing?" Wang Wenyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This poor nun really doesn't know..." Seeing Wang Wenyan's face suddenly turn ugly, Jingyuan snorted, "But Miaoyu has a close friend outside the temple. They are usually as close as sisters. Before Miaoyu left,
After staying in that woman's house for a few days, that woman probably knows where Miaoyu is staying."
Wang Wenyan quickly asked the woman where she lived and her last name. He kept it in mind before saying goodbye and leaving.
Standing by the stream, the woman held up the wooden basin. The cold water made her hands turn red from the cold water, but the woman didn't care. She shook off the clothes that had been twisted dry, and then put the clothes on the bluestone board one by one.
He got into the wooden basin, picked up the wooden basin and walked towards his home.
The weather is getting colder and colder. It's getting cloudy now, and it might snow in two days.
According to the elders, it was unimaginable that twenty or thirty years ago, they had never even seen snow at all, but now it actually snows for a few days every year.
Thinking of snow, a trace of annoyance appeared on the woman's beautiful face. The weather was cold, and clothes were slow to dry, and more charcoal was needed in the house.
My father is also a careless person. He only cares about eating and drinking every day, but the daily expenses are visible. How much additional expenses will be added will have to be carefully calculated.
As soon as he stepped into his small courtyard, he heard his father shouting: "You foreigners, do you know the rules? Why did you get in without saying a word?"
"Sorry to bother you. We knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered. We heard noises in the courtyard again, so we took the liberty to open the door..."
"Huh, no matter what, this kind of behavior is unforgivable. What are you doing here?" A somewhat rough voice said impatiently.
"We found Mr. Luo in the town. He told us about this place, so we looked for him..."
"Ah?" The hoarse voice suddenly became a little panicked, "What did Luo Kuina want to do with you? I tell you, don't even think about it! It was only five taels of silver. He coaxed me to go to the casino, but after several times it turned into twenty taels.
This is naked blackmail!"
"No, your honor has misunderstood..."
"Misunderstood? Huh, that guy Luo Kui has been plotting against my daughter for a long time. Do you think I don't know? Tell him, don't have such a dream. My daughter wants to find a good family. How can I give him this?
Waiting for a scoundrel to become a concubine?" The hoarse voice became louder and louder, "If he keeps pestering you like this, I will go to the Suzhou government office to sue him for disturbing good people. Could it be that he doesn't know that my sister is married in Beijing, and even the Minister of Punishment has met with him.
Do you have to be polite to my brother-in-law?"
Wang Wenyan couldn't bear it anymore.
This early in the morning, I unexpectedly met a fool who had drunk the morning wine. Every time I didn't say anything clearly, he was snatched away by the other person, and he was so messy.
The Luo Quina guy he was talking about was a pawnbroker in the town. He was originally his drinking buddy. He had never said that he wanted to take his daughter as a concubine. It was just that this guy frequently paid five taels of silver a time in the town.
He had borrowed money to drink and drink, two or three times, but he had never been allowed to go to a casino?
But let’s talk about friends, they are not doing good deeds, even if they have twenty taels of silver in capital, he can only repay three or four taels in bits and pieces. Later, they can no longer afford to wait, so they come to him to ask for the silver.
.
He then said that they were planning to rob civilian girls, so he first filed a complaint in the Wuxian county government office, and went around shouting about someone in the capital, which frightened Na Luo Kui and did not dare to come to the door easily.
But twenty taels of silver is not a small amount, and I will definitely want it back.
There were not many acquaintances in Wuxian County, so Wang Wenyan asked someone about the situation. It happened that Luo Kui met him and told him about the situation. Wang Wenyan and the others came straight over. They originally thought they would ask such a simple matter, but they didn't expect it.
I met this kind of person.
Thinking of this, Wang Wenyan became a little worried. If this girl Miaoyu had a handkerchief with the daughter of this family, who knows what her character would be like?
If this Miaoyu girl is also messing around or thinking about some small tricks to become a monster, then it will be really troublesome.
"Dad!" The woman holding the wooden basin couldn't help it anymore. She took two steps and said bluntly: "Sir, my father is drunk and in a bad state. Please forgive me. I don't know how many people come to my house."
what's the matter?"
The woman naturally knew her father's virtues. Although Uncle Luo in the town was just a pawnbroker, he was still a serious man. He was more than ten years younger than her father, and he had been a drinking buddy for many years.
It's just that my family is not rich, so I borrowed twenty taels of silver from my father. It was all because my father was greedy. He wanted to eat well and drink hot food all day long, so he stretched out his hands to borrow money and was tired of borrowing it. There was nothing wrong with it.
What about being cheated at the casino?
He wanted to gamble, but he had neither money nor courage, so how could he dare to enter that gambling house?
It was just that people were urging me hard, so my father wanted to scare people randomly, so he went to the county government office and walked around. In fact, he didn't dare to enter the county government office at all. When he came back, he went around the town shouting. It was really good.
Uncle Na Luo was frightened.
Only then did Wang Wenyan notice the girl holding a wooden basin, her hands red from the cold.
She is wearing an indigo blue cotton skirt and a slightly washed crescent-cut cotton quilt with piping on the outside. She has a jade face and plain makeup, and her elegant brows reveal a bit of tranquility. Her thin lips have a small curved upper lip.
It shows that this woman has an unusual temperament.
Her hair was combed into a bun like that of an ordinary girl's hair, but there was no pearl hairpin at all. Plus, her pink makeup and delicate and clear eyebrows and face, when she stood there, she suddenly looked like a solitary cloud emerging from her head, looking elegant and radiant.
I'm afraid this is the handkerchief that Jingyuan mentioned was handed over to Miss Miaoyu.
Wang Wenyan did not dare to neglect, he slightly cupped his hand and said loudly: "Excuse me, I am Wang Wenyan, the manager of the Yamen of the Lianghuai Province Salt Transport Envoy. This time I came to see Miss Xing for something. I don't know who the girl is...
"
The woman was quite surprised. She glanced at this middle-aged Confucian scholar with extraordinary bearing, and quickly returned the favor with a blessing, "I don't dare, I am Xing, but I don't know if she is the Miss Xing that Mr. Xing mentioned.
I wonder if sir, could you please tell me what I have to do with Miss Xing?"
Seeing that this woman was so polite and well-mannered, and her speech and conversation were completely different from that of the rough guy, Wang Wenyan felt relieved and had to admit that this was really a golden phoenix born from the crow's nest.
