Yu looked at Lin Qianqian and sighed guiltily.

"I'm sorry, Aunt Lin, I wronged you. I was confused for a moment and believed the evildoer's words..."

"I was so angry that I said that."

"Auntie Lin, you, you...I really misunderstood you."

"Qianqian!" Gu Huai suddenly screamed and hugged Lin Qianqian in his arms.

Lin Qianqian's tears were dripping like pearls, hanging on her snow-white cheeks, crystal clear and extremely beautiful, but falling down like needles piercing one's heart.

Lin Qianqian lowered her eyes and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Just because I was born in a brothel, you think I can have an affair with anyone at will? I know you look down on my background, but do you know that no woman who falls into prostitution does so willingly?"

Yu's face froze. Seeing Lin Qianqian crying in Gu Huai's arms was really heartbreaking.

Lin Qianqian whispered, "They are not loved by their fathers, their mothers, and none of their aunts or sisters-in-law want to save them, so they are forced to sell their bodies in brothels. The prostitutes give them ten taels of silver, and the prostitutes in the brothels give them three copper coins as pocket money. They still have to receive customers even when they are pregnant. When their bellies are too big to receive customers and make money, they inject mercury or poison into their bodies to induce abortion. They think it is a waste of money to buy medicine, so they beat their abdomens with sticks to induce miscarriage."

"Not to mention that they might get sick, the mother probably wouldn't be willing to spend money on medical treatment for them. Most girls in the building don't last more than three years, so we have to buy them from outside every year."

"If you blindly believe what that man says, will I be stripped naked and severely beaten? And will I be asked to invite outsiders to come and see? Am I not a human being? If I could live a clean life in this world, why wouldn't I want to!"

"Why do you still want to stay in the Marquis' Mansion when you are humiliating me like this? You might as well ask the prince to divorce me right now! Drive me out of the Marquis' Mansion and let me fend for myself!"

Lin Qianqian covered her face with her hands and cried out.

Gu Huai felt a pain in his heart as if he was being stabbed by needles. He hugged her in his arms, but Lin Qianqian struggled to break free from his arms and pushed him aside.

Thinking of what Yu had just said, Lin Qianqian's eyes were filled with mist again.

"Why do I have to live here? I have no personal freedom, no human rights, and I need permission to go out. Just because someone from nowhere falsely accused me, they want to strip me naked and beat me. If they really treat me like this, then what's the point of me living!"

Yu's neck turned red with anger. She pointed at Lin Qianqian and said, "I've already apologized to you. What else do you want? You're just a concubine."

"How dare you speak to me like that! I'm the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, who do you think you are! How dare you throw a tantrum at me!"

A faint sneer appeared on Lin Qianqian's lips.

"You may as well send me away now."

She didn't want to be trapped in the Marquis' Mansion and engage in intrigues with the heroine every day.

These days, she's really had enough.

"Mother! Qianqian was wronged today! She was frightened when she heard you say that! She definitely didn't disobey her mother on purpose! You also know that she has a strong temper and sometimes speaks without restraint, but she definitely didn't mean it." Gu Huai hugged Lin Qianqian and quickly apologized to Yu.

"She said these words because she felt extremely wronged. Mother, please forgive Qianqian! She was impulsive at the moment and definitely didn't mean it!"

"I apologize to my mother on behalf of Qianqian."

Lin Qianqian looked into Yu's eyes and asked, "Madam, we are both women. Just because you are in a high position, can you trample on another person's life and personality at will?"

"Because of your high status, you are a human being and others are animals?"

Yu was speechless.

Sitting on the high seat, he stared at Lin Qianqian in a daze.

Lin Qianqian's eyes were red as clear pomegranate seeds. She knelt down and bowed to Yu, then turned and left.

"flourishing!"

Gu Huai quickly raised his foot and chased after him.

As soon as he left the house, he turned back and said to Yu: "Mother, I will go and persuade Qianqian. Please don't take it to heart."

"Okay! A concubine is showing off her temper!" Yu reached out and patted her leg.

I gritted my teeth in anger, "How dare she get so angry in front of me!"

Madam Hong quickly stepped forward and stretched out her hand to touch her forehead and relax her temples. "Madam, Aunt Lin must have suffered a great injustice, which is why she said those words just now. You should treat her as a donkey that cannot be disciplined and kick the peg."

"Young people are always so hot-tempered."

Yu sighed a few times, "It's my fault too."

Cheng Jiayao stepped forward and said, "Mother, what's wrong with you? You've already apologized to her. Aunt Lin is just taking advantage of the prince's favor to get angry at you. It's the prince who spoiled her."

Yu nodded, "You're right, Huai'er spoiled her. She yelled in front of the elders when she was wronged!"

"How can she compare to you, you are well-behaved and sensible, smart and considerate. You help me to relieve my boredom, but she only makes things difficult for me."

Cheng Jiayao smiled and massaged Yu's shoulders. "Mother, this... Aunt Lin said to send her out of the house... What do you think?"

Yu sighed, "I think she is angry. If she leaves our mansion, where can she live happily?"

Cheng Jiayao asked one more question, "What if Aunt Lin is sincere? Are you willing to send her out of the house?"

Yu said sternly, "She is just a concubine. Just send her away. There are many girls willing to be Huai'er's concubine."

the other side.

Gu Huai chased Lin Qianqian all the way through the garden and came to the corridor. He grabbed one of her arms and hugged the struggling person tightly in his arms.

"Qianqian, I'm sorry. I made you feel wronged again today."

"It's my fault. I failed to protect you."

Lin Qianqian shook her head. She looked at the ground dejectedly and said, "It's not your fault. It's the world's fault."

"The people at the top eat the people below, men eat women, and women at the top eat women at the bottom. Why bother? They are all slaves. Once they get some power, they treat others as non-human beings."

Cao Gong wrote "Dream of the Red Chamber" through Yuanyang's mouth: "It doesn't matter if you never marry a man in your life, you will be happy and clean."

Ancient people all had this awakened awareness of controlling their own destiny, but the supporting female character, Lin Qianqian, who traveled through time, is even more feudal than the ancient people. She does not have the vision and consciousness of modern people at all, and ends up becoming cannon fodder for others.

Gu Huai pursed his lips in embarrassment, "Mother went too far today. If I hadn't exposed that person's lies, I'm afraid you..."

"But! Don't worry, I will never let her do this to you!"

"You are angry today. My mother will feel embarrassed. If you annoy her, it may not be good for you." He was a little worried about her.

"So what if I annoy her? She has hated me for a long time." Thinking of everything that had just happened, Lin Qianqian was so angry that her chest heaved.

If she hadn't taken this opportunity to lose her temper and speak out, Yu would have thought that she was a person with a good temper and could be manipulated at will.

Things like this can be appeased with just one sentence, but in the future she will have to endure two slaps and one sweet word.

She wanted to accuse her of discrimination against the prostitutes, although it might not awaken her conscience. After all, they were used to treating the people below as non-human beings.
