Number of People

  Chapter 493 T-shaped scroll Guyun Out of Xiuxiu (Second update!)

  Jingyuan was silent.

  The meat that fell from her own body, and she has raised it for so many years, is also the crystallization of the relationship between herself and that heartbroken man. How could she be willing to let her stay in this world for the rest of her life?

  Which mother doesn't want her daughter to have a good marriage and a good place to go? Isn't this also a temporary dwelling here due to helplessness?

   It's just that she was born as a lady in the official family in her early years, so she naturally understands that a daughter like a daughter is not even considered a concubine's daughter, and she cannot have a good future in the future.

   After all, it was also her and Lin Ruhai's fault, but it was hard for her to accept that it would fall on her own daughter.

The person in front of me is right. If Lin Ruhai really dies, it will be really difficult for Miaoyu to find a good home in the future. Being a concubine is not bad. Shou life, this is absolutely unacceptable to her.

  I have been like this all my life, and she accepts her fate when she encounters unkind people, but her daughter can't do this. She hopes that her daughter can have a bright future.

   "Then how does he plan to arrange Miaoyu?" Jing Yuan asked after a long silence, and the Buddhist beads in his hand also returned to normal twirling from the static state.

   "Master, it may be too far to say this now, but you have to trust Mr. Lin..."

"Benefactor Wang, you don't need to tell this poor nun. In the past, the poor nun's father's house also had aides like you. They were all capable people who gave advice and seduced people's hearts. Lin Ruhai can send you here at this time. Pay attention, the poor nun only needs to say one word, Miaoyu cannot be a concubine for others! If this can be done, then the poor nun will stop asking about Miaoyu's affairs, if..."

  There is indeed a big difference between a concubine and a concubine.

  A concubine can never become a regular wife, but a concubine may. If the main wife dies or is divorced, the concubine may become a regular wife.

  Similarly, the status of children born to concubines is much higher than that of children born to concubines, and can even be regarded as descendants in a certain sense.

Especially in the case where the main wife has no children, according to the feudal etiquette, that is the birthright. Even if the main wife has children, the children born by the concubine can get a greater inheritance right than the children born by the first wife, and the status and power are much higher than concubines. Having children is also clearly stipulated in the "Great Zhou Law".

  Because concubines are often involved in marriages of high-ranking families, their children are often involved in inheritance rights, which include not only the right to inherit property, but also the right to inherit titles and yin compensation.

  The concubine's children have priority. For example, if the concubine has passed the imperial examination and the imperial court favors Yin Yin, then the concubine's son will naturally get the first right to make up for it, ranking ahead of all concubines' children, unless the imperial court directly specifies.

Wang Wenyan also realized this, and said decisively: "Master, don't worry, how can Mr. Lin let his daughter be a concubine? It is absolutely impossible for the nobles of the court and the top scholars in this department to let Mrs. Lin's daughter be a concubine. This point in classical Chinese Can be clear!"

  Jingyuan felt at ease, "Benefactor Wang, remember your own words, if Lin Ruhai dares to live up to these words, that poor nun will be smashed to pieces, and he will be ruined in the scholarly circle, and he will be infamous forever!"

   "Master, don't worry, Mr. Lin has always kept his word, how could it be..."

"Hmph, he keeps his promises? It's rare to deceive people with sweet words?" Jing Yuan felt that he had lost his current status as soon as he said the words, and hurriedly recited a Buddha's name, "I don't talk about things in the past. Look at Lin Ruhai himself."

   "Then teacher, can you tell Wen Yan where Ms. Miaoyu is doing Qingxiu?" Wang Wenyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"This poor nun really doesn't know..." Seeing Wang Wenyan's complexion suddenly turned ugly, Jingyuan snorted softly, "But Miaoyu has a close friend outside the temple, and the two of them are usually like sisters. The woman lived in the house for a few days, and the woman may know where Miaoyu is staying."

  Wang Wenyan hurriedly asked the woman where she lived and who her surname was, and kept it in her heart before leaving.

Standing by the stream, the woman picked up the wooden basin, her hands turned red from the cold water, but the woman didn't care, she shook off the wrung clothes, and then put the clothes on the bluestone board one by one In the wooden basin, he picked up the wooden basin and walked to his home.

  The weather is getting colder and colder. Looking at the cloudy weather, it might snow in two days.

  According to the elders, it was unimaginable 20 or 30 years ago, and they had never seen snow at all, but now there are so many days of snow every year.

  Thinking of snow, the woman's clean and dusty face showed a touch of annoyance. The weather is cold, and the clothes are slow to dry, and some charcoal needs to be added to the house.

  Father is also a man who doesn’t care about things. He only cares about eating and drinking every day, but the daily expenses are visible.

  As soon as I stepped into my small courtyard, I heard my father yelling: "You foreigners, do you understand the rules? Why did you sneak in without saying a word?"

   "Sorry to bother you. I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. We heard voices in the courtyard again, so we took the liberty to push the door open..."

   "Hmph, no matter what, this kind of behavior is unforgivable. Why did you come here?" A somewhat hoarse voice said impatiently.

   "We found Luo Erye in the town, he told us about this place, so we found it,..."

"Ah?" The hoarse voice suddenly became a little panicked, "Why did Luo Kuina come here with you? Let me tell you, don't even think about it! It's only five taels of silver, but he tricked me into going to the casino and turned it into twenty taels. This is blatant blackmail!"

   "No, Your Excellency misunderstood,..."

"Misunderstood? Hmph, Luo Kui Nasi has been thinking about my daughter for a long time, thinking that I don't know? Tell him, don't have such a big dream, my daughter is looking for a good family, how can I give him this kind of love?" Waiting for a rascal to become a concubine?" The hoarse voice became more and more louder, "If you continue to pester me like this, I will go to the Suzhou government office to sue him for nuisance to good people. Does it mean that he doesn't know that my sister is married in Beijing? Even my brother-in-law should be courteous?"

  Wang Wenyan couldn't bear it anymore.

  This early in the morning, I actually met a stupid man who had drunk the morning wine. Every time I didn't speak clearly, I was snatched away by the other party, and he was so nonsense.

The guy he was talking about, Luo Quina, was a **** dealer in the town. He was originally his drinking buddy, and he never wanted to take his daughter as a concubine. It was just that this guy frequently borrowed money in the town for five taels of silver at a time. After eating and drinking, there were two or three times, so why did he ever let him go to the casino?

But let’s talk about friends, he doesn’t do good deeds, even if he has twenty taels of silver in his capital, he only pays back three or four taels of money, and later he couldn’t afford to wait, so he came to him to ask for the silver .

  He said that the family intended to rob the women, and first filed a complaint in the Nawu county government, and went around yelling that there were people in Beijing, but Na Luokui was frightened, and he dared not come to the door easily.

   But twenty taels of silver is not a small amount, and they will definitely get it back.

There are not many acquaintances here in Wu County, so Wang Wenyan asked someone to ask about the situation. It happened that Luo Kui met him and told him about the situation. Met this kind of person.

  Thinking of this, Wang Wenyan became a little worried. If this girl Miaoyu is a handkerchief handkerchief with the daughter of such a family, what is her character like?

  If this Miaoyu girl is also a messy person or someone who thinks about some tricks and wants to be a demon, then it will be really troublesome.

"Daddy!" The woman holding the tub couldn't help it anymore, she took two quick steps, and said crisply and authentically: "Sir, my father is in a state of drunkenness, please forgive me, I don't know how many of you can come to my house?" what's the matter?"

  Women naturally know their father's virtues. Although Uncle Luo in the town is just a pawnbroker, he can be regarded as a decent person. He is ten years younger than his father, and he can be regarded as a drinking buddy for many years.

It's just that his family is not rich, and he borrowed twenty taels of silver from his father back and forth. It was because his father was greedy. Going to the casino to be fooled?

   He would like to gamble, but he has neither the money nor the guts, how dare he enter that gambling house?

It's just that people were pressing so hard that my father wanted to frighten people indiscriminately, 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. It frightened Uncle Na Luo.

  Wang Wenyan noticed the girl holding the tub with hands red from the cold.

She was dressed in an indigo blue cotton dress, and a cotton beige with crescent moon pinch flowers and trimming that was washed a little whitish was covered outside. She had plain makeup on her jade face, her eyes were elegant and serene, and her thin lips had a slightly curved upper lip. Upturned, showing that this woman has an unusual temperament.

  The hair is combed into a bun of an ordinary daughter, but there is no pearl flower hairpin, plus the delicate and clear eyebrows and face with powder makeup and jade carving, once you stand there, you will suddenly look like a lonely cloud coming out of Xiu, elegant and beautiful.

   This is probably the handkerchief of Miss Miaoyu that Jingyuan said.

  Wang Wenyan didn't dare to be negligent, he cupped his hands slightly, and said loudly: "Excuse me, I'm Wang Wenyan, the steward of the Si Yamen, the transfer salt envoy of the two Huaihe Rivers. This time, I came to find Miss Xing. I don't know what the girl is..."

The woman was quite surprised, and glanced at this middle-aged Confucian scholar with an extraordinary bearing, and hurriedly blessed her in return, "I dare not, my surname is Xing, but I don't know if it's the girl Xing that Mr. said, I don't know if sir can tell me what's the matter with that Miss Xing?"

  Seeing that this woman is so polite and thoughtful, and her speech and conversation are so different from that of the muddy man, Wang Wenyan was overwhelmed and had to admit that this is really a golden phoenix born in the crow's nest.

   The second is asking for a monthly pass, Lao Rui is working hard!
