Chapter 493: The D-shaped Juan 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 foreign land for the rest of her life?

 Which mother doesn’t want her daughter to have a good marriage and a good place? Isn’t this why we temporarily live here out of desperation?

 It’s just that she was also an official girl 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 that it would fall on her 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 a bad thing, but if it doesn't work, she will have to be an ancient Buddha Qingdeng. She has been keeping this for her whole life, and she will never accept this.

 She has been like this all her life. She accepts her fate when she encounters unkind people, but this cannot be the case for her daughter. 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 he asked. The beads in his hand also returned to normal twisting from the initial static state.

"Master, 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 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 to confuse 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 a concubine has the possibility of becoming the head wife. If the head wife dies or is divorced, the concubine may become the head 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 legitimate children 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 expressly 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 rights include not only the right to inherit property, but also the right to inherit the title and the right to marry.

The children of concubines will have priority. For example, if the legitimate son has passed the imperial examination and the court favors him, then the concubine's son will naturally have the first right of support, ranking before all the concubines' 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 this department will never let the daughter of Mr. Lin be a concubine. This is something Wenyan 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 community and he will be infamy for thousands of years!"

“Master, don’t worry, Mr. Lin always sticks to his word, how could it be...”

"Humph, he keeps his word? How often do you use sweet words to deceive people's hearts?" As soon as Jingyuan said those words, he felt that he had lost his current status, and quickly recited the Buddha's name, "I didn't mention the matter in the past, so this matter will Look at Lin Ruhai herself."

“Can the master tell Wen Yan where Miss Miaoyu is doing her spiritual training?” 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 softly, "But Miaoyu has a close friend outside the temple. They are usually as close as sisters. Before Miaoyu left, they were together I stayed in that woman's house for a few days, so I'm afraid that woman 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 turned her hands 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. In the wooden basin, he picked up the wooden basin and walked towards his home.

 The weather is getting colder and colder. It's getting cloudy now. It might snow in two days.

According to the older generation, it was unimaginable twenty or thirty years ago, and they had never even seen snow at all. Now, it actually snows for a few days every year.

Thinking of the snow, a trace of annoyance appeared on the woman's pretty 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 more expenses are 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, but no one answered the door after knocking for a long time. We also heard noises in the courtyard, 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 Majesty misunderstood,…”

"Misunderstanding? Huh, Nasty 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. Doesn't he know that my sister is married in Beijing? 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 early in the morning. 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 never wanted to take his daughter as a concubine. It was just that this guy frequently borrowed money from the town for five taels of silver at a time. He had been drinking wine for two or three times, but he had never been allowed to go to a casino?

But as a friend, they are not doing good deeds. Even if they have twenty taels of silver in their 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 filed a complaint with the county government in Nawu County, and went around shouting that there was someone in the capital, which frightened Naluo 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 Miaoyu girl had a handkerchief with the daughter of this kind of family, who knows what her character would be like?

If this Miaoyu girl is also a messy person or is 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 of you can come to my house." what's the matter?"

Of course the woman knew her father's virtues. Although Uncle Luo in the town was just a servant of a pawnshop, 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 borrowed money and was tired of borrowing it. How can there be anything? 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 a 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, which was really true. Uncle Na Luo was frightened.

It was only then that Wang Wenyan noticed the girl holding a wooden basin, her hands red from the cold.

She is wearing an indigo blue cotton skirt and a crescent-cut cotton jacket that has turned white after washing. She has a jade face and plain makeup. Her brows are elegant and there is 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 daughter, but there was no pearl hairpin at all. Plus her pink makeup and delicate and clear eyebrows, when she stood there, she suddenly looked like a solitary cloud emerging from her hair, looking elegant and radiant.

This is probably the handkerchief that Jingyuan mentioned was handed over to Miss Miaoyu.

Wang Wenyan did not dare to neglect, he cupped his hands slightly and said loudly: "Excuse me, I am Wang Wenyan, the manager of the Yamen of the Lianghuaidu Salt Transfer Envoy. This time I came to see Miss Xing for something. I don't know who the girl is..."

The woman was quite surprised, glanced at this middle-aged Confucian scholar with extraordinary bearing, and quickly returned the favor with a blessing, "I don't dare, my surname is Xing, but I don't know if she is the Miss Xing that the gentleman mentioned. I wonder if sir, could you please tell me what I need 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 out of a crow's nest.

Second update, asking for monthly votes, Lao Rui is working hard!
