Marrying Gold and Jade

When Mingyuan was led into the yard, he heard an argument coming from behind the closed door.

"You are so cool and carefree outside, but when you come home, do you want me to pretend nothing happened? Tan Jinghe, don't touch me, I find it dirty!"

The man's yelling was louder and his words were more foul, making him clench his fists.

When he heard faint crying sounds from the inner room, Mingyuan knocked on the door despite the red curtain's obstruction.

"who!"

Without getting a reply, Tan Jinghe still came to open the door.

Seeing that it was a tall man, he immediately became suspicious: "Who are you?"

Mingyuan said, "Madam has prepared gifts for you in the flower room. I am the one who takes care of the plants."

The two had just had a huge argument and said all sorts of nasty things to each other. When the man opened the door and heard that Lin Yu had prepared a gift for him, he felt a little embarrassed.

"I see. You..."

"Get out, get out!"

Lin Yu put on her clothes and immediately followed Ming Yuan's words, "Don't stand here and make me sad for no reason!"

The man named Tan was pushed out and the door slammed shut on his back.

"If you have something to say, why don't you just say it nicely? Who allowed you to throw a tantrum and push me out like this?"

Ming Yuan said calmly, "Young Master, why don't you go to the flower room first?"

Lin Yu had a precious greenhouse at home. When they heard that it had been moved to Bo's house a while ago, Tan Jing and Zhengjue felt ashamed, so they went down the stairs here.

After taking a walk around the greenhouse, he felt bored when he saw that Lin Yu still had the door locked, so he turned around and went to the courtyard to look for Dan Niang.

Mingyuan met someone that night. Even though they were close last time, he still squatted under the bed and talked to the person with his head tilted up.

"I know your difficulties. The master won't allow you to divorce, and the dowry you brought with you is in the hands of the Tan family. You are caught in a dilemma and don't know how to deal with it."

Lin Yu didn't say anything. Having just experienced humiliation from her husband, her eyes were swollen and she felt embarrassed.

"Miss, I can help you."

She came back to her senses and turned to look at him, "How can I help?"

He had been in the position of the emperor before, and he had seen the dead end that Lin Yu had created, and he had thought of a countermeasure.

Mingyuan asked her to hand an account book to Tan Jinghe before her menstrual period came.

"What's this?"

Tan Jinghe was the second son of the Earl's family. It was not his turn to inherit the title. He was brought up as a playboy since childhood and only loved to live off his wealth and did not like to look at the account books.

Lin Yu then said, "This is the cost of my dowry in the past four months."

She married into a wealthy family, and in order to please her mother-in-law, she made two sets of keys to her private vault, one of which was also kept by her mother-in-law.

"Now my eldest sister-in-law is in charge of the household. She has the key and can take my dowry at will. I remember every detail of it clearly. The eldest wife took something away every few days, and my mother-in-law also bought a lot of things."

When she was about to take this opportunity to speak up, Tan Jinghe immediately said, "We are all family, what do you mean by yours or mine? Not to mention my mother, if you want to spend money, just spend it. Tell others about it and it will be a tribute from us, the younger generation!"

Lin Yu was not surprised. He suppressed his contempt and continued speaking as he was taught.

"My dear husband, you know that the monthly expenditure of the first house is three times that of our second house. The withdrawals in this book are called the withdrawals of the mother-in-law, but in fact, the eldest sister-in-law took my dowry to offer as a gift. The money was paid by us, and the filial piety is hers."

"My husband brought Dan Niang into the mansion a while ago, and I went to the storehouse to get two pieces of satin and a set of headgear. My eldest sister-in-law scolded us for being extravagant and wasteful."

Hearing this, the man's expression slowly changed, "Did she really say that?"

Lin Yu sneered and continued, "My husband is not the eldest son, and he will have to rely on his brother's honor in the future. I am just angry. We are the ones who provide the money, so why do we have to live timidly?"

When Tan Jinghe married Lin Yu, he naturally did not care about her family background. He only cared about the Lin family's wealth and the dowry that would allow him to spend the rest of his life.

He has to look at his sister-in-law's mood to spend his wife's dowry. Doesn't that make him a coward?

He had never known that Lin Yu had such ability to manage a family, and he immediately seemed to have found his backbone. He held her hand and asked, "So what do you say we should do?"

"According to me, the account of my private treasury must be returned to our second house."

Lin Yu didn’t say it back to her, but, “our second room.”

There is no brotherhood in front of money, Tan Jinghe was convinced.

Lin Yu acted as the bad guy and changed the lock of the private vault and handed over all the account books to himself. Although Tan Jinghe tried to mediate and appease the family, and even scolded Lin Yu for being petty, he had no intention of stopping it.

He felt both proud and confident. After closing the door, he began to like Lin Yu again and wanted to drag her onto the couch.

Lin Yu said, "It's not convenient these days."

She had calculated the date for the rebellion, and was somewhat surprised that Mingyuan had taken the aftermath of the incident into account, allowing her to escape the turmoil caused by someone acting on a whim.

Seeing that others were disappointed, she immediately started the second step.

"My husband might as well stay the night at Sister Danniang's."

The bastard said that Dan Niang was not as good as her, and he went there very honestly.

Lin Yu immediately went to find Ming Yuan.

"What to do next?"

She has already got her dowry back, but she still can't divorce.

Everything went more smoothly than Ming Yuan had imagined. He still looked like a teenager, and he curled his lips and said to the others, "Miss, you did a great job."

Only then did Lin Yu realize that his hands and feet were cold and what a big show he had put on in front of the entire Bo's Mansion.

The man's hands were warm enough to wrap her tightly in.

Tell her: "Next, let him marry the one in the courtyard."

Lin Yu was slightly surprised when he heard this, because he used the word "marry".

The next day, Lin Yu told Tan Jinghe about this matter.

"Sister Danniang and I hit it off right away. Seeing that she has no status in this mansion, she will be a topic of gossip, saying that her husband treats her poorly."

Tan Jinghe had just regained the right to withdraw the dowry. When he heard her say this, he immediately understood what she meant, "You mean..."

"Why not just take the concubine? You and I are husband and wife, and we should share honor and disgrace together."

If you have a wife like this, what can your husband ask for?

Tan Jinghe laughed, "Didn't you say before..."

"I was just saying that out of anger before. I've figured it out now." Lin Yu knew that she was beautiful, and her timid look could best let people down their guard.

She held the man's hand and said sincerely, "If you raise the status of younger sister earlier, your husband will have to go out less!"

Resisting the hand that was pinching his waist, Lin Yu turned his head away, finally not having to hide his disgust anymore.

On the fourth day of her menstrual period, Dan Niang took her as her nominal concubine.

On the seventh day of her period, Lin Yu filed for divorce.

It was only a few days, and the man was unable to react at all and just thought she was joking.

It can be seen that her face was stern and she didn't give in after talking for a long time. Suddenly, she reacted.

Yes, she just got the key to the private vault a while ago.

But despite this, the man remained calm.

"What's your reason for divorce?"

It is already difficult for a woman to get a divorce. He didn't make that kind of mistake at all, and his father-in-law is on his side.

Lin Yu pointed at Dan Niang quietly, "Because of her."
