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

Mother Lin glanced at He's parents. It was obvious that only He's mother refused. Everyone else, including He Lan, was tempted.

Even though she pretended not to care, her clenched hands and the panic in her eyes were real.

"In that case, forget it!"

Mother Lin turned around and left the He family. She believed that He Lanxin would definitely enter the Shen family.

But, maybe she was not a concubine, but a maid.

After Mother Lin left, He Lanxin looked at her mother and cried, "Mom, what are you doing? Do you know that this is the opportunity I begged for?"

"Lan Xin, don't you understand? Mom is doing this for your own good."

He's mother didn't understand that being someone's mistress was a choice that would make it impossible to survive.

Their family hasn't reached this point!

"Mom, do you want me to live with my face facing the earth and my back facing the sky? You can't give me a life like Zhou Yunning, so why do you stop me from working hard?"

"Master Shen is the one I chose. The Shen family is not only the richest, but also related to the county magistrate. Mother, everyone says that it is better to be the wife of a peasant family than the concubine of a rich family."

"But what? They don't know how difficult it is to be a farmer's wife. With no money or power, she still gets beaten by men."

"In that case, it would be better to become a concubine of a rich family. At least you can live a good life."

Doesn’t He Lanxin know that being a concubine is difficult?

know.

But so what?

She didn't want to marry a farmer and spend all day around the stove.

Not only do you have to manage the household, but if you meet a useless man, you also have to earn money to support the family.

This... In this case, I might as well become the young master's concubine.

"The man I'm looking for is Zhou Hui, the only scholar in the village. Don't you like him?"

He's mother was so angry that she was about to die. Being a scholar's wife was definitely better than being a concubine.

Hearing this, He Lanxin smiled. She once thought that being a scholar's wife was a good thing.

But she had seen Zhou Hui's embarrassment in front of that group of rich kids.

She is not a woman with great ambitions, she just wants to live a life of luxury.

"Scholar? He's nothing but a joke. As long as Master Shen and the others are willing, he will never be able to make it."

"Mom, your vision is too narrow."

As for the system of this dynasty, it directly killed the opportunity for poor students to advance.

Following Zhou Hui, he will always be just a scholar.

Unless he is willing to be the man behind someone else.

"Okay! Stop talking. Mother, you are really wrong."

Father He shook his head, his eyes full of helplessness and regret.

Seeing the disapproval and resentment from her child and the person beside her, He's mother felt her heart aching.

So, they all feel like they did something wrong?

In fact, she just wanted Lan Xin to be happy.

He Lanxin did have resentment towards her mother, and not only her, but also the three members of the He family, father and son.

Therefore, everyone vented their anger on He's mother, making her sad and hurtful.

Here, Zhou Hui and Xie Jiabao had already returned on a ox cart.

As soon as he entered the village, he heard the gossip of the villagers.

"I didn't expect it! The He family actually rejected the Shen family's proposal. Are they so stubborn? Don't forget, this is the richest man!"

"The Shen family is not only rich, but also powerful. The He family is so confused!"

"Do you think the He family will regret it? If they regret it in the future, it will be a huge loss of face."

"Maybe! She's attracted to the boy from the Zhou family."

"The Zhou family kid? Nonsense, he is a scholar, so what? He is still poor."

Zhou Hui: It hurts!

Xie Jiabao looked at Zhou Hui sympathetically. I didn't expect that things would turn out like this just after returning home.

"Little scholar, do you think your childhood sweetheart can't bear to leave you?"

Xie Jiabao thought that since she had rejected the Shen family's proposal to be a concubine, did she want to give up the little scholar?

Hearing this, Zhou Hui laughed. His eyes fell on the distance and he said, "You don't understand this. He Lanxin definitely wants to get married."

"But Mother He loves her daughter dearly. She certainly won't bear to see her daughter become someone else's concubine."

In her previous life, He Lan was happy to move into the Shen residence, but her mother strongly opposed it.

However, He's mother, who cared about He Lanxin, was eventually killed by the medicine He Lanxin delivered herself.

He Lanxin said, "Mom, Ajian has always cared about you. He said you look down on him. Mom, it's really hard for me to live with you."

At that time, He's mother had been given a muscle-softening powder and she didn't even have the strength to get up.

She watched helplessly as her most beloved and beloved daughter sent her to the underworld.

In this way, He Lanxin is really cruel, even killing her own mother.

"Really? Oh! What a pity! Such a good mother, what a pity."

Xie Jiabao was envious because he had been disliked by his mother since he was a child because of his big size.

*

Seeing this kind of mother who loves her children, he couldn't help but feel envious and sad.

Zhou Hui and Xie Jiabao returned to Zhou's house. He opened the door and shouted, "Mom, little sister, I'm back!"

Zhou Yunning, who was originally in a bad mood, instantly became full of energy when she heard her brother's call.

"Brother, I missed you so much! Where have you been?"

Zhou Yunning pulled her brother's sleeve and acted coquettishly. Now that her brother was back, her backbone was back.

Xie Jiabao looked at Zhou Yunning, his eyes shining! It was the first time he had seen such a lively and lovely girl.

"I'm going out to meet a friend. Have you been good at home?"

Zhou Hui pinched Zhou Yuning's face affectionately.

I thought to myself, it would be more comfortable to pinch if there was more flesh.

"I'm so obedient! It's just that I'm sad! Brother, do you know?"

"The Shen family actually proposed to He Lanxin, and my mother even said that He Lanxin had always treated us as stepping stones."

Having said this, Zhou Yuning became dispirited again.

This is the only friend she recognizes.

The result was...

It was so unbearable that she began to doubt her own judgment.

"Yes! I know everything. I heard it when I was at the entrance of the village."

"Ning'er, human nature is very complicated. You can't see through it."

"I have read so many books by sages, but I have never seen a thorough understanding of human nature."

Zhou Hui felt that it was not his sister's fault, as it was all because human hearts were unpredictable.

"That's right! Even the young scholar is so powerful, he can't see through it, let alone a little girl like you."

Xie Jiabao finally spoke up. He walked up from behind Zhou Hui and his eyes fell on Zhou Yuning with an aggressive look.
