After the male supporting role stopped interfering, the female protagonist suffered

Xie Jiabao turned his head away and said unwillingly: "I really haven't thought about it! Little scholar! You...you are really...ambitious!"

"So that's why I came to see you. Thank you, sir, for helping us find a future for the people of the world. I hope that scholars like me will have the opportunity to serve our country, and heroes like you will have the opportunity to fight in battle."

Zhou Hui’s words made Xie Jiabao a little excited, but he did not agree.

The main thing was that the young scholar started rebelling right away, which really scared him.

"Scholar, aren't we going to pick up your mother and sister? Let's go! Let's go now!"

Xie Jiabao behaved himself and said nothing more.

This scholar is not very old, but he has a big mouth!

Scared! Scared!

In Shanghe Village, people from the city came to He Lanxin's home.

Mother Lin came to the He family, her eyes full of disdain, and she looked at He Lanxin's parents with a scrutinizing look.

"Xiuyun! Your Lanxin is so lucky. This is the housekeeper of the Shen family in Shanshui County."

The person who was speaking was the most iron-tongued matchmaker in the area, Li, who could even bring a dead person back to life.

"My surname is Lin."

Mother Lin nodded slightly, looked around the He family's environment, and secretly estimated He Lanxin's value in her heart.

"Xiuyun, the Shen family wants Nalan Xin as a concubine. It's not his master, but his young master. The young master Shen Jian who is studying at Shanshui College."

After Matchmaker Li said this, He's parents were a little reluctant, but He Lanxin's eyes were shining.

She didn't expect Shen Jian to ask her to marry him. So what if he was her concubine?

As long as they love each other, they would be willing to be concubines.

Matchmaker Li saw that He's parents were unwilling, but He Lan seemed tempted.

She walked in front of He Lanxin, her face smiling like a chrysanthemum.

She smiled so hard that her waist bent, and said happily: "Look at this figure and this appearance, she is indeed the girl that Young Master Shen likes. Girl, do you know how rich the Shen family is?"

"They are the richest people in Shanshui County. Let me tell you in secret, they are relatives of the county magistrate!"

Matchmaker Li spoke softly, but clearly enough for those present to hear.

Mother Lin straightened her back, she felt that she was superior to others.

The He family's parents' faces turned ugly, but the He family brothers smiled happily.

If they became relatives of the county magistrate, wouldn't they be able to act arrogantly in the village?

Not only that, by marrying into the Shen family, the family's finances will also improve.

The villagers who were watching the fun around started talking about it.

"She's actually a relative of the magistrate? Hiss! Lan Xin married into the Shen family? Doesn't that mean she's related to the magistrate?"

"Yes! Wouldn't it mean that you can walk all over Shanghe Village in the future?"

"Alas! Why doesn't my daughter have such good luck?"

"If we talk about the prettiest girl in the village, it has to be the girl from the Zhou family."

"Yes! Yes! The girl from the Zhou family is pretty, prettier than Lan Xin."

"Pretty? So what? The Shen family doesn't like her."

Zhou Yuning, who was in the crowd, was pulled back by her mother.

Zhou Yunning looked at her mother angrily and said angrily, "Mom, why are you pulling me? I must tear the mouths of those gossipy women to pieces."

"Okay! Okay! Why are you angry? It's not worth it."

Zhou's mother shook her head disapprovingly. It was not worth getting angry about those gossips.

"Mom, do you know what makes me most angry?"

"It's He Lanxin! She acted like me so much before that I thought she would be my sister-in-law."

Why does Zhou Yuning have a good impression of He Lanxin?

Perhaps it was because He Lanxin was more affectionate towards her brother, and every time she looked at him, her eyes were filled with love.

Zhou's mother shook her head and said disapprovingly: "Lan Xin is a restless child and is not suitable for your brother."

"People like this coming into our home will only destroy our family."

Zhou's mother never thought that she would become He Lanxin's mother-in-law one day because her thoughts were so easy to guess.

"Mom, have you never thought about letting her marry in?"

Zhou Yunning looked at his mother in shock. Could it be that his brother's love died because of his mother?

Mother Zhou touched her daughter's hair lovingly and explained patiently, "It's not that I don't want her to marry into our family, but she has always regarded you and your brother as stepping stones."

"Before! I always thought you were too young and didn't want to tell you."

"Now, I will talk to you in detail."

Zhou's mother patiently analyzed He Lanxin's behavior with her daughter, from going to the college to visit her brother to her acquaintance with Shen Jian and others, as well as her intentions.

"So, brother is just a stepping stone, the second choice. Hiss~ No wonder brother's attitude is a little off."

Zhou Yunning thought of her brother's attitude the day before, and there was no longer any closeness as before.

She thought it was a problem with her feelings, but now she was afraid that her brother had discovered her true face.

"Mother, why does she want to be someone's concubine? Isn't this putting her life in the hands of others?"

Zhou Yunning didn't understand why she had to be a concubine?

Isn’t it good to be the legal wife?

"She doesn't understand that a large mansion is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. If she met a kind mistress, it would be fine."

"If she met a mistress who looked kind but had a cruel heart, she wouldn't even know how she died."

Mother Zhou patted her daughter's back and said softly, "You have to understand how fickle men are in this world. There are very few men like your father and your brother."

"Ning'er, mother won't tell you to exchange sincerity for sincerity. Because sincerity may not necessarily be exchanged for sincerity."

"So, no matter what time, you must guard your heart and strengthen yourself."

"This is why mother taught you martial arts. Protecting yourself is the best way."

"Whether it's mother or brother, we can't stay by your side all the time."

Compared with her son, Zhou's mother is more worried about her daughter.

Because of her son and her own protection, her daughter is a little naive.

She naturally hopes that she will always be innocent and untainted by the world.

But, obviously, this situation will not happen.

"Mom, I understand."

Zhou Yunning was feeling a little depressed. She thought her kind and wonderful sister Lan Xin actually treated them and her as stepping stones.

The impact of this incident on her was so great that she couldn't muster up any energy.

Seeing that she looked very depressed, Zhou's mother did not disturb her and went straight to do her own thing.

At He Lanxin's home, He's parents drove away the villagers who came to watch the fun.

They closed the door and told Mother Lin about He Lanxin.

He's mother was illiterate, but she knew that being a concubine was not easy.

She refused directly: "My Lan Xin is not a little girl."

Mother Lin frowned and looked at the He family unhappily.

The clothes they wore were not even made of better material than those worn by the Shen family's servants.

How dare they reject their proposal to take a concubine?
