Yan Wanwan was sent away midway, but the dance party at the Governor's Mansion continued.

Guests who are not good at dancing can go to the wing room of the West Flower Hall or the lounge on the second floor to sit, drink tea and chat.

Yan Xin is socializing.

Several young ladies surrounded her and discussed dancing with her.

Yan Xin answered one by one.

The governor's wife felt a little tired. She wanted to go back to have a rest and drink some ginseng soup.

The governor's wife was very tired from taking care of her brother who was shot during these days.

Jing Yuanzhao personally delivered the ginseng soup upstairs.

The Overseer's wife sighed at him.

Jing Yuanzhao sat casually on the sofa in her room, crossed his legs and leaned back on the back of the sofa casually.

"...Why do you always sigh at me?" he asked.

Mrs. Overseer: "That woman, she is so terrible, I can't stand her."

She said Yan Wanwan.

Jing Yuanzhao didn't take it seriously: "You don't think it's okay. I won't bring her to you in the future. I will buy a small mansion after I get married."

"Then I raised you in vain?"

"How can I raise it in vain?"

"I raised you, but my wife can't see me, and my grandchildren can't see me," said the governor's wife.

Jing Yuanzhao shrugged: "That can't be helped. You try to think of her benefits."

"I've seen her several times, but nothing about her satisfies me," said the governor's wife. "Not to mention her character, her eyes just keep wandering around, and she's not on the stage."

He added, "She is a concubine, not even a concubine."

Jing Yuanzhao wanted to smoke, so he took out his cigar box, took out a cigar and cut it open.

He lowered his head and lit his cigar.

After taking a breath, he walked to the balcony and said, "Mom, I have no choice."

"She saved your life, just give her money." The governor's wife said, "There is no need to marry her."

"Money can't buy wealth and power. This is what I promised her at that time. You also said that she is a foreigner, so she needs status more. I must marry her to repay her for this kindness." Jing Yuanzhao said.

Breathing smoke lightly, his eyes became dim and his emotions were unpredictable, "Mom, without her, your son would have died."

The governor's wife shuddered slightly when she heard this.

"Think about your son's life and be as tolerant to her as possible," Jing Yuanzhao said.

The Overseer's wife felt a little uncomfortable.

She asked Jing Yuanzhao again, "Do you like her?"

Jing Yuanzhao took another puff of cigarette.

Before meeting Yan Xin, he wasn't sure and didn't feel that he particularly liked any woman.

But now, Yan Xin aroused an itch in his heart. He wished he could swallow her whole.

He has a strong affection for Yan Xin.

With such a comparison, Jing Yuanzhao had an answer in his mind: "It doesn't matter whether I like her or not. I have to marry her. A man must keep his promise."

Mrs. Overseer: "You still don't like her!"

"If she were a man, I could make her a high-ranking official. But she is just a woman, what do you want me to do?" Jing Yuanzhao asked.

In this era, a woman's status depends on her father, husband and son, but not herself.

Yan Wanwan's father is a straw bag, and mud cannot hold up the wall.

The governor's wife was indifferent.

Jing Yuanzhao took a few puffs of cigarette and suddenly said: "It's wrong to say that I don't like her. I like her when I can't see clearly."

At that time, the hazy shadow made his heart skip a beat.

It's just that the blurry figure is more beautiful; but when you see it clearly, Yan Wanwan does not conform to Jing Yuanzhao's fantasy.

Mrs. Overseer: "I still can't believe it. She really saved you. She doesn't seem to have any medical skills."

Jing Yuanzhao: "You have to prove that it's not her you are suspicious of."

"You have no doubts?"

"I sent someone to investigate first," Jing Yuanzhao said. "So far, there are no flaws. She also showed me the medical records and said that she had copied a ready-made prescription to save me."

The Overseer's wife: "It's so easy to cure diseases. Everyone is a miracle doctor."

When Jing Yuanzhao finished smoking his cigar, he went back to his room to get the crystal ashtray and put out the cigarette butt.

He said: "She is a benefactor. I will give her the position of young lady of the Governor's Mansion. She will be the Governor's wife in the future."

"What if it is verified in the future that it is not her?"

"When the day comes and the evidence is put in front of me, I will kill her." Jing Yuanzhao said, "Now that there is no evidence, I will trust her. Mother, are you satisfied?"

The governor's wife was dissatisfied, but she didn't want to say anything more.

She finished drinking the ginseng soup, closed her eyes and took a nap, not wanting to talk about Yan Wanwan anymore.

Very unappetizing.

When Jing Yuanzhao saw her resting, he got up and left.

He originally wanted to go find Yan Xin, but the general staff officer had something to talk to him about, so the two of them went to the small study next to them to talk.

The Overseer's wife squinted for half an hour, then called the maid to come in and comb her hair again.

While combing her hair, another maid came in cautiously: "Madam, the lady is missing."

The governor's wife didn't understand what she said: "Yan Xin?"

"Yes." The maid said, "She said she went to the bathroom and walked outside to get some fresh air, but she never came back."

The governor's wife: "Maybe he is lost. Send someone to look for him."

She is in no hurry.

The Governor's Mansion has a post every three steps and a sentry every five steps. Although the yard is large, it is impossible for ordinary people to break into important places casually.

If Yan Xin walked out of the yard, he would be sent back by the adjutant carrying a gun.

She might be lost, or resting somewhere.

Yan Xin was a distinguished guest, so she couldn't see her. Other guests who wanted to talk would definitely ask, which made the maid panic.

"Let's go look for it again." The governor's wife waved her hand.

The maid said yes and went out first.

After a while, the governor's wife combed her hair and went to the West Flower Hall.

As soon as I walked in, there was something wrong with the atmosphere.

"What's wrong?" asked the Overseer's wife.

The young and beautiful woman looked anxious: "Madam, my sister-in-law is missing."

She is Zhang Qingya.

Because she shouted that Sister-in-law Xi was missing, everyone looked at her, making her the center of attention.

Everyone gathered around her.

"Yan Xin?" The governor's wife frowned.

The servant just said she was missing, hasn't she been found yet?

"Tell me slowly, why are you missing?" the governor's wife asked Zhang Qingya.

Zhang Qingya felt vaguely excited.

With a room full of powerful people, she thought that with her otherworldly temperament, she would definitely attract a lot of attention today.

However, even though she was from the husband's wife's adopted daughter-in-law's family, not many people paid attention to her.

There were only a few older men, and they went out to talk about things after dinner; the younger men were particularly snobbish, and they all favored the powerful ladies.

Zhang Qingya's natal family is also pretty good. Her father and brother are both officials in the north, but their official positions are not very high.

She wanted to take advantage of Yan Xin's strength and make herself stand out.

Unexpectedly, no one will take care of you.

As for Yan Xin, she was so vulgar and low-end. Because she was an honored guest, everyone held her in high esteem.

Zhang Qingya thought of a way.

She locked up Yan Xin.

Then she looked for Yan Xin everywhere.

Everyone was looking at her, asking about Yan Xin's whereabouts, and even caring about her.

The room full of people finally saw her.

Including the Overseer's wife.

"Sister-in-law Xi said she didn't feel well and wanted to find a clean room. She asked me to accompany her, but I happened to be thirsty, so she said wait a moment and I would find something to drink before going. She couldn't wait any longer, so she left first, and then never returned. I can’t find it,” Zhang Qingya said.

Now Yan Xin is missing.

After everyone searched hard and couldn't find her, Zhang Qingya found her again. Today she, Zhang Qingya, left a deep impression on everyone.

From then on, her suitors will probably jump up several levels; and her best friends will also change from those business girls to the rich and powerful daughters of the military government.

She is very satisfied with herself.

Unexpectedly, a voice came from the door: "Why are you surrounded by my cousin?"
