Approach the second young master

Seeing the people coming out of the house, Lin Qi clenched his hands even tighter and asked, "What's the matter?"

The woman who came out shook her head and said, "We... will work hard."

"What's the situation?"

"Ma'am is born weak, this pregnancy is not easy, and just now she was a little gassy, ​​now it's very difficult..."

While they were talking, someone came out again, and there were still many people busy behind them. It seemed that the dust had almost settled, and it was only a moment of life or death.

The midwife came out empty-handed: "My lord, Madam is fine, but the child..."

Lin Qi understood.

Lin Qi wanted to see his wife, but was stopped.

"My lord, you can't go in! The delivery room is an unlucky place!" The maid stopped her firmly, and Lin Qi had no choice.

Lin Qi actually didn't have a big obsession with seeing his wife. Seeing people blocking him so tightly, he didn't insist on breaking in. He just felt... a little ashamed of this woman.

Miss Zhang Jiaer has been with him for five years. Although he had some knots at the beginning, he still thinks Miss Zhang Jiaer is pretty good. Although it is difficult to like her, he will still give her the best he can give her. .

Just now, the midwife asked him to protect the elder and the younger, and he said without hesitation that he should protect the elder—he was a little sorry for her, how could he take her life?

Remember the wedding night, their conversation.

"Although I don't feel like a lady when I ask this way, I want to ask you, do you have someone you like?"

Miss Zhang Jiaer's hijab has been lifted, she is extremely beautiful, she asked Lin Qi with a smile.

Lin Qi was not blind, she could see Zhang Er's beauty, but she was not happy, but...felt ashamed that she had to delay such a woman.

"Ah."

"Will you take that man as a concubine?"

Lin Qi smiled: "Haven't you heard the rumors outside?"

"What rumor?"

"I like Zhao Yunze from the Zhao family."

"That Zhao..." Second Miss Zhang's eyes were hesitant at first, and then surprised.

"Doesn't it feel weird?"

"But you didn't keep him. I heard rumors about him. He resigned."

"There's no need to stay. Don't mention him, I want to ask you, can you accept me?"

"So what if you don't accept it, you've already married in."

"Oh?"

"However, I'm not weak. I can't lack what I should have. As your wife, I will do whatever I do with you. If I can't get it, I won't fight for it."

"You do understand."

"At least you don't take concubines!"

The eldest daughter of the Zhang family married a husband who doted on his concubine and killed his wife. The eldest lady of the Zhang family was living in dire straits, and this second lady understood.

……

Lin Qi felt a little dull watching the people busy with their own work, recalling the conversation on the wedding night, and didn't know what Zhang Er thought of him in the past five years.

Zhang Er didn't seem to have much interest in being his wife, but she had a good relationship with him. She would participate in any game, and she got along well.

For the past five years, Zhang Er has had nothing to do before. Many people asked Lin Qi to take concubines, but Lin Qi didn't have such a big obsession with children, let alone delay another woman. Besides, he also promised Zhang Er not to accept concubines. Concubine's.

But Zhang Er didn't know why she refused to follow Lin Qi on this point. Although she had understood her status long ago, she couldn't bear such pressure, so she went to seek medical treatment quietly and finally became pregnant with the child.

It is impossible for Lin Qi to take a concubine, and public opinion will inevitably point to Zhang Er.But... Lin Qi felt more and more sorry for Zhang Er.

Now that he is in the position of the first rank, it is really rare. It is estimated that it will be difficult to have such a young first rank as him in hundreds of years. Before that, he even begged for the order of the second rank for his wife, which can be regarded as making up for it...

A few days later, Lin Qi met Mrs. Zhang. Mrs. Zhang knew about her daughter's situation. She was already weak and had failed childbirth. Come and ask Lin Qi if he is interested in taking a concubine.There are also some concubines in her family who Mrs. Zhang thinks are good. Mrs. Zhang feels that no matter what, she can't let others take advantage of her.

In fact, it is reasonable to say that Zhang Er has no children, so there is no need to let his own sister be a concubine, but Lin Qi is very developed now, and Mrs. Zhang certainly has not forgotten the few daughters in the family.

When the Zhang family first married a daughter, he was only a fourth rank, but now he is a first rank, how could such a person fall into the hands of others?

"Madam, I appreciate your kindness, but I have someone in my heart, so I don't want to delay your other daughters."

"But..." Madam thought that Lin Qi was thinking of her daughter, and wanted to persuade her a little more.

"I'm sorry for her, so if your family needs anything, just tell me, and I will agree."

"But……"

Lin Qi suddenly said: "I heard that the eldest lady of your mansion gave birth to the third young master in her home?"

Mrs. Zhang was taken aback, not knowing what Lin Qi was talking about.

Miss Zhang married the son of a third-rank official at the beginning. She was considered a low marriage. She thought she would be able to straighten up and talk, but who knew that the family was not a good one. That's how he was treated... and that son didn't make much progress, and now he's just a juren, he didn't even pass the Jinshi exam, and his daughter is really miserable...

Lin Qi understood that most women would rely on two legitimate sons, and now that the eldest daughter of the Zhang family has several births, it might not be of any use, so it would be better... to adopt one for him.

In fact, he has selfish motives, if Zhao Yunze comes back one day, his wife and children are all ready, he will also feel uncomfortable.

But who knew that Zhang Er wanted children like that.

Whether it's his problem or Zhang Er's problem, he thought that not being able to give birth was a solution to his obsession, but something he didn't care about made Zhang Er like this.

But it would be difficult for him to keep his family business without children. It would be better to have a child from Zhang Erjie's family. That family's life is not good, so it shouldn't be a bad thing to come here.

……

Zhao Yunze looked at the ledger, feeling a little dazed.

He was so successful that he didn't even know what to do.

Now that his family's wealth has been described as less, he also doesn't know what to do now.

I heard from Sister Zhuo that Lin Qi found someone to adopt a child, but this has nothing to do with him, it's just that he really doesn't have anyone to rely on now.

He didn't know why, he didn't want to find a woman, and of course he didn't want to find a man. He didn't have any particularly close friends in the south, and it was impossible to adopt a child like Lin Qi.

"Sister Zhuo," Zhao Yunze said with a smile, "tell me, should I open a shop."

"What score do you want to play, young master?"

"I want to go back to the capital and open a brothel."

Sister Zhuo twitched her lips, but didn't laugh. This Mr. Zhao's idea is really unique.

"But sister Zhuo, you have to keep it a secret."

"It's natural."

In fact, Sister Zhuo hadn't sent any news to Lin Qi in the past five years, and Lin Qi didn't let her play such a role at the beginning. What Zhao Yunze said was just a layer of insurance.

But he thinks his idea is very good, anyway, the money is quite sufficient, otherwise, he might as well open a house with all kinds of entertainment, and don't make it all a brothel. Watching beautiful women play music is actually not very interesting.

But he has seen many things in the north and south in the past few years, and he thinks some things are still interesting. If they are mixed together, they may be interesting.

Zhao Yunze has now changed his name to Zhao Gong. The name has no meaning, it was changed blindly, and this is also for the convenience of doing business.

"Sister Zhuo, please tell them to take care of the shop first. If they don't make a lot of money, they can buy it. Just give me a book to go to the capital."

"Yes. But son, are you going this year?"

"It's not in a hurry, I need to investigate for a few years."

Mrs. Zhang has some hesitation. Now she wonders if Lin Qi has already made up the idea of ​​Zhang's eldest son, but this doesn't seem to be a particularly bad idea. She also thinks it is a bit bad to let the concubine go to be a concubine. This idea may give It's not bad that the eldest daughter brings some benefits.

Zhang Er didn't react when he heard the news, but she talked to Lin Qi.

"Why are you bothering?" Lin Qi said that it was a lie that he didn't feel sorry for Zhang Er, but it was more like a friend.

"Hey, there's no way, it's too stressful. I didn't want to do this. You may not believe me when I say it, but my mother arranged for me to seek medical treatment."

"It's strange that I didn't know until you were four months old. But when did you and I...?"

"Uh... my mother let the maid in your wine..."

"How do you know where I keep my wine?"

"Do you think this matter can be difficult for me?"

"Looks like I need to change places."

"Have you seen the children of my eldest sister's family?"

"I've seen it. In fact, I had thought about her when she was pregnant. Who knew you were pregnant and I forgot about it. Now it happens to be the third son of her family, so I want to come."

"This matter is not easy to handle."

"It's okay, as long as you agree, I can do the rest. You have a good rest."

"Wait! What..."

"Ok?"

"Let's just be friends, and you don't have to feel guilty about me."

"You..." Lin Qi now has the illusion that Zhang Erhong is cheating.

"Maybe I don't really like it."

"Well, if you feel that nothing is wrong, I am naturally happy."

Zhang Ergan laughed twice, and Lin Qi left the room.

He met that child during the full moon wine, he was very beautiful, and he should be a good child.

The author has something to say:

I feel that it is very difficult for Lin Qi to avoid getting married

So Zhang Er's character is not that simple and pitiful...

In fact, I originally wanted to write a side story (there is still one chapter to finish), but I suddenly felt that it would be a bit bad to write it for Zhang Er alone, so I stopped writing it.

But my setting here Zhang Er can be regarded as an affair?My setting is that Zhang Er and the maid of Lin Qi's family are getting married
