Professional Ethics of a Concubine

Xie Mingli hurried back to Pingnan Marquis Mansion from Xiangguo Temple. As soon as he arrived at the gate, he was told that the old lady was not well.

Hearing this, he became anxious and frightened, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat. He hurried to Fushou Garden, asking the manager what was going on along the way.

Upon learning that it was the eldest wife in the West Garden who was causing the trouble, the old lady fainted with anger.

They just made a fuss, but they even brought those dirty things to my great-grandmother. If anything bad happened to her, it would be a pity for them to die!

When he arrived outside Fushou Garden, Xie Mingli saw Zhao Xinlan and Xie Xiuhan coming out.

"Greetings, father." Xie Xiuhan greeted him and said, "Father, great-grandmother has woken up. The imperial physician said she needs to rest, so we all came out."

Xie Mingli breathed a sigh of relief and patted Xie Xiuhan's head in relief, "That's good."

Zhao Xinlan, who was standing by, bowed and said with a gentle smile,

"My Lord, my great-grandmother had been unconscious just now, and no one could wake her up. But when we called Aunt Ye from the West Garden, she came into the room and soon after, my great-grandmother woke up!

Now everyone says that she is blessed, and that she has a connection with Sister Lin. When Sister Lin's anniversary comes, should we ask her to come and burn incense for her?"

When Xie Mingli heard this, he couldn't help but want to touch the piece of paper in his sleeve.

"Do you also think that Aunt Ye is a bit like Qingwan?" Xie Mingli asked.

"I don't think so." Zhao Xinlan said in a low voice, "My Lord also knows that she is just a concubine and comes from a merchant family with a low status. In order to live a more comfortable life in the backyard, she will use all kinds of tricks and methods.

But no matter what, she is the concubine of Marquis Jiangyang. I really don't know what her ulterior motive is for pretending to be Sister Lin and learning her words, deeds, and even handwriting? Could it be that she can win the favor of Marquis Jiangyang in this way? "

At this point, she was almost about to say that Lin Qingwan had an affair with Xie Jin before her death!

"Don't talk nonsense! How dare you! Too dare you! When you go back, kneel down in front of Qingwan's tablet and apologize!"

How could Xie Mingli not hear the meaning of her words? He immediately scolded her, his eyes blazing with fire, and he looked extremely angry!

Zhao Xinlan didn't expect him to be so furious. Her legs went weak and she immediately knelt down to apologize.

Xie Xiuhan also knelt down and apologized, "Please forgive my mother for her careless words. Making a scene like this not only hurts my father's reputation, but also disturbs my great-grandmother's rest."

At this moment, Ye Qingzhi, Xie Jin and Zhang Jingyi happened to come out of the yard and saw this scene.

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

"What's going on?" Xie Jin looked at the scene and asked with raised eyebrows.

"She said a few wrong things." Xie Mingli said to Xie Jin perfunctorily, and then said to Zhao Xinlan in a cold voice, "Get up and go back!"

Zhao Xinlan got up from the ground in embarrassment. When she found out that Ye Qingzhi was also looking at her, she was so ashamed and angry that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

When Lin Qingwan learned that Xie Mingli was deeply in love with her, and then saw herself in such a miserable state, she must have laughed to death in her heart!

Thinking back, she had deliberately mocked Lin Qingwan before her death, but now her fate was even more of a joke. Zhao Xinlan's face felt like it was burning, and she felt extremely tormented.

Ye Qingzhi didn't even look at Zhao Xinlan, and she didn't know that she had imagined so many things. She was looking at Xie Xiuhan.

However, after taking two glances at Xie Xiuhan, she looked away.

What the hell?

Ye Qingzhi frowned.

Why does she feel that Xie Xiuhan is the son of Xie Mingli and Zhao Xinlan?

Ye Qingzhi looked at the faces of the three of them and felt that they were somewhat similar, but not the kind of resemblance that could be told at a glance that they were father and son or mother and son.

But this was the thought in her mind.

Ye Qingzhi simply lowered her head, out of sight, out of mind.

She is not Lin Qingwan. Even if she will be affected, she does not want to get involved in her troubles.

Xie Mingli's gaze couldn't help but fall on Ye Qingzhi. He looked at her carefully, as if he wanted to see her more clearly to see if she was Lin Qingwan.

Xie Jin noticed his gaze and his expression immediately turned cold. He took a step forward to block Xie Mingli's gaze and his voice was as cold as an ice cellar.

"Don't make me teach you a lesson!"

Xie Mingli retracted his gaze, knowing that he was in the wrong, and did not refute. Instead, he bowed to Xie Jin to express his apology and walked into Fushou Garden.

Zhao Xinlan saw that Xie Mingli cared about Ye Qingzhi, and her heart tightened. She couldn't help but think that if Xie Mingli felt that Ye Qingzhi was Lin Qingwan's reincarnation, he would definitely ask Xie Jin for Ye Qingzhi.

After all, she was just a concubine and had never given birth to a child.

It is shameful to ask for your uncle's concubine, but it is acceptable as long as the other party agrees.

Ever since Lin Qingwan passed away, Xie Mingli has gone crazy and done many shameful things.

Zhao Xinlan changed her mind and decided that it would be better if she came over so that she could be dealt with under her nose.

Ye Qingzhi was in the Marquis of Jiangyang's mansion, protected by Xie Jin and Zhang Jingyi. She could only stare blankly and could not take any action.

"Thank you for protecting me, sir." At this time, Ye Qingzhi also expressed her gratitude to Xie Jin.

"It seems that Master will not treat me as an object and give me to Marquis Pingnan. I can finally put my worry at ease and no longer have to think about dying."

Zhao Xinlan suddenly looked at Ye Qingzhi and even wanted to cover her mouth in shock. She wondered if she had just said what was in her heart!

Zhang Jingyi also looked at Ye Qingzhi suddenly and couldn't help but glare at her.

Why do we have to speak out loudly about all the truths?

"What nonsense!" When Xie Jin heard Ye Qingzhi say this, he suddenly felt a surge of fire rising from the bottom of his heart and was extremely angry.

Xie Jin wanted to reach out and pinch her little mouth, but when he thought about how they were outside, he had to give up and glared at her angrily.

"I am not talking nonsense. The Marquis of Pingnan is obsessed with missing his late wife and is almost going crazy. I heard that he likes to collect all the things of the late Madam Lin to commemorate her.

Now everyone says that I look like Madam Lin. Just now, Pingnan Hou looked at me without regard for etiquette and thought that I looked like a substitute. Aren’t these signs clear to you? I am not a fool! "

Ye Qingzhi's face was filled with shame and anger, and she tore off the fig leaf without any hesitation.

The story of her beautiful mother made her realize once again how lacking human rights and status women in ancient times were.

Perhaps only women in the royal family can avoid the fate of being raped, but the fighting in the royal palace and the harem is fierce, and life is not easy. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

Xie Mingli's look just now made the alarm bells in her heart ring again.

He was afraid that Xie Mingli would not do his job, so he made a private deal with Xie Jin and took her away.

Although Xie Jin seemed to care about her a little, this care was not enough when it came to interests.

Xie Jin is a man who doesn't even care about being cuckolded. As long as the chips are right, he will definitely give up her.

Since you don't want to be human, there's no need to bother wearing clothes. Let's see who is more embarrassed.

"If the Marquis of Pingnan really dares to have the evil thoughts you mentioned, not only will I not agree, I will also teach him a lesson and brainwash him so that he can wake up."

Xie Jin said coldly.

"I know that you are the one who pays the most attention to rules and etiquette!"

Ye Qingzhi believed this temporarily and flattered him with a smile.

"My good fortune must come from your love and care, so Master Liaoyin said that I have a deep fortune and will have a smooth life."

After hearing what she said, Xie Jin couldn't help but smile, and his anger subsided a lot.

He was pinched to death.

"Auntie Ye, you are the one who is irritating, but you are also the one who can comfort people." Zhang Jingyi couldn't help shaking her head, "You have such a powerful mouth!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Madam." Ye Qingzhi walked to Zhang Jingyi and said softly,

"I am a good talker, so I can help Madam to fight against those who are causing trouble for Madam."

Zhang Jingyi couldn't help laughing, but she still glared at her in reproach, "Okay, stop talking nonsense here, let's go back quickly."

"Okay, I'll listen to my madam." Ye Qingzhi said obediently.

Zhao Xinlan pursed her lips and watched Ye Qingzhi and the others leave. She couldn't help but ask Xie Xiuhan beside her,

"Han'er, what do you think of Aunt Ye? Do you think she looks like the deceased lady?"

"Mother, of course not. Mother, please don't say such nonsense in front of father anymore. Comparing an aunt with mother is humiliating mother and will only anger father."

"Mother? You... are right." Zhao Xinlan wanted to get angry and stop him from calling Lin Qingwan mother anymore, but because they were outside, she had to give up.

Xie Xiuhan lowered his head to hide the emotions in his eyes.

How could he tell his mother that he regretted it and thought it would be better for his mother to be alive?

Without his mother's careful guidance, he realized what precious things he had lost.

Xie Xiuhan felt heavy-hearted when he thought about the scholar examination that would be held soon.

-

the other side.

Ye Mansion.

Ye Yongyuan stared at the fine mutton-fat jade pendant and was really going crazy!

His wife was actually favored by Prince Su!

"Father, you should divorce mother." Ye Junfeng said softly again.

Ye Yongyuan glared at him fiercely, and was so angry that he wanted to scold his wife for being restless, hooking up with the prince, and trying to get rich.

But when he took a quick glance and saw his wife's now elegant and refined appearance, Ye Yongyuan couldn't say the words he wanted to scold her for being restless.

If you are still not content, then no one will be content!

I can only say that Prince Su is sick!

No matter how angry Ye Yongyuan was, he only dared to curse Prince Su in his heart and did not dare to curse him out loud.

Ye Yongyuan was still unwilling to give in, "Did you misunderstand Prince Su's intention?"

At this time, the doorman outside came to report that someone from Prince Su's Mansion had come to give gifts.

Ye Yongyuan,……

My face hurts!
