Family affection? Is it important to have rights?

Chapter 70: Miss Li as a concubine?

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Madam Mu." The general's wife said to Xu Jingshu after the three men left.

"Kwang Soo needs the help of the Lee family, so he can only get it through marriage." The general's wife explained slowly.

She kept saying that her son needed help, but Xu Jingshu didn't think so.

Although the Lee family is one of the most famous wealthy businessmen in Beijing, how much help can they provide to Seo Kwang-soo?

"It's okay. Madam Li asked me to stay and talk to you about something." Xu Jingshu was still smiling, which was already giving face to her eldest brother. If the eldest sister-in-law wanted to say more nonsense, she would get angry!

Do you really think that the Prime Minister's Mansion really needs the General's Mansion?

She hasn't eaten yet!

The general's wife glanced at her and thought to herself that her sister-in-law was really impatient. "Don't be impatient. I'll make it short. I want to give my niece to Kwang Soo as a concubine."

Xu Jingshu was a little impatient at first, but was surprised by her sister-in-law's words.

Let your niece be your son's concubine? !

Xu Jingshu already had some guesses in her mind, but she still asked, "What about the candidate for the principal wife?"

"Of course it's Miss An! She can bring more to the general's mansion than just the little benefit brought by the Li family!" When the general's wife mentioned Miss An, the tone of her voice became a little emotional.

Xu Jingshu thought to herself, as expected, the General's Mansion is trying to get close to Queen An!

But isn't it a bit cruel to do this to your own niece?

The general's wife seemed to know what Xu Jingshu was thinking and explained, "Although Qingmeng is a concubine, I asked her to cultivate her relationship with Guangzhu first!"

"And once she enters the general's mansion, I will take good care of her! I am her aunt, how could I possibly harm her?"

This does make some sense, but a concubine is still a concubine after all. She cannot even enter the general's mansion through the main gate, the color of her clothes cannot exceed the rules, and she has to pay her respects to the principal wife every day.

Even when eating with the wife, he had to stand beside the table and serve!

Children born to concubines must also call the wife mother.

Having to live like this for the rest of my life is such a hopeless situation that I can see the end of it.

If she met a wife with a bad temper or powerful means, Xu Jingshu couldn't imagine how Miss Li would be tortured!

Unless the husband loves his concubine very much and gives her privileges to oppress his wife, which is of course a rare case, he will most likely be punished for favoring his concubine over his wife.

So the story of Marquis Jingyang spread very quickly in the capital. No one had seen such a stupid person for a long time. He committed a crime knowingly and did not try to hide it at all.

Most of the daughters of high-ranking officials are married to someone else. The Li family is also a well-known wealthy family in the capital, and they are extremely wealthy. Even if they marry a lower-ranking official, the dowry they give will be more than that of the daughters of ordinary high-ranking officials.

Is the sister-in-law really doing this for the good of her niece?

Xu Jingshu sneered in her heart, wondering if it was for the benefit of the General's Mansion!

"Yeah, maybe she'll be more comfortable here with you around than at home!" Xu Jingshu was a little annoyed by hunger and said sarcastically.

The general's wife didn't notice and nodded in agreement.

Xu Jingshu almost couldn't help but roll her eyes at her. Was her sister-in-law's perception of her wrong? !

At this time, a maid hurried in and whispered something in the general's wife's ear.

Then Xu Jingshu saw that her sister-in-law's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

This aroused Xu Jingshu's curiosity. She rolled her eyes and asked indirectly, "Did something happen to Kwang Soo?"

After all, who else could make the general's wife change her attitude?

The general's wife didn't want to say it at first, but when she thought about the fact that Madam Mu's daughter was there too, even if she didn't know it now, she could find out from her daughter when she returned.

So she said it anyway, "Kwang Soo took his cousin and cousin to the banquet for lunch."

She really wanted to call her son a blockhead!

With such a good opportunity, Kwang Soo actually took them back to the banquet for dinner?!

Xu Jingshu almost laughed out loud. The three of them had just come out of the banquet and turned around and went back to the banquet again.

But speaking of meals...

Xu Jingshu said tactfully, "Since they have returned to the banquet, why don't we go back and take a look? Maybe they got along well at the banquet?"

"Okay." The general's wife agreed.

----

"You said your cousin was hungry and wanted to go back to the banquet for dinner, so the three of you came back together?" Ji Qichen asked the reason.

"I guess what your cousin meant was that she would leave first so that you two could have a good chat?" He couldn't hide the smile in his words.

"Well, how do you know?" Xu Guangzhu asked puzzledly.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha, I don't want to go with you anymore, so I want to find an excuse to leave!" Ji Qichen could imagine the scene just now!

"No, you see, my cousin was so hungry that she took some pastries to eat as soon as she sat back down before the food was served."

Xu Guangzhu pointed at Mu Tangxi and spoke confidently.

Ji Qichen turned his head and saw that although his cousin who was studying with him was very elegant, she was eating the pastries in her hand while staring at the remaining pastries on the plate with her amber eyes.

Ji Qichen was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Ah, I'm really hungry."

"Your mother asked her to come over, but didn't let her eat first?"

"do not know."

"So your mother knew that your cousin had not eaten, and she asked her little girl to walk and chat with you?"

"..."Xu Guangzhu suddenly felt sorry for his cousin. She was still young and was still walking with them even though she was so hungry.

"Then even if being hungry is not an excuse, your cousin must want to stay away from you two. What did your mother think, letting a little girl go with you and Miss Li?"

“…I don’t know.” Xu Guangzhu didn’t know what his mother was thinking, but he was at least relieved to have his cousin go with him.

If it were just him and Miss Li, the atmosphere would definitely be awkward!

"Forget it, forget it. I'm hungry too. Hurry up and get someone to serve the food!"

While Ji Qichen was chatting with his study partner, he noticed that his study partner's cousin had already started eating. When she was eating, her expression was very serious, and it made him hungry.

"That's true. I'm hungry too." Xu Guangzhu asked the servant next to him to bring the dishes.

Mu Tangxi finally had his meal and finally got rid of those two troubles. He felt a little more relaxed.

Even if her mother came back at this time, she could say that her cousin was hungry and brought her and Miss Li here.

Anyway, when she said she was hungry, no servants nearby heard it.

My cousin is taciturn and doesn't know how to speak. Miss Li...

Even if she said it, no one would believe her, two against one!

Of course, Mu Tangxi did not ignore the screen while eating.

Originally, she wanted to observe what actions her cousin would take, such as sneaking away or something.

Unexpectedly, I found that the dishes served by the servants to my cousin were almost enough for two people!

Mu Tangxi's eyes curved, she must have discovered the flaw!

Sooner or later, the other one will be found!
