However, Shen Xinru had been married for two years, so her pregnancy was expected.

On that day, the servants in the house were given two extra months' salary, and the smile on Jin Lougui's face never faded.

The next day, an uninvited guest came to the house.

It was a young woman with a bun on her hair, which indicated that she was married, and she was dressed in luxurious clothes. She came down from a sedan chair.

The noble lady of the Golden Tower stepped forward and said, "My father does not want to marry for the time being. If this is why you are here, please go back."

The young woman said, "I have something else to discuss with Mr. Jin. Please let me know."

Chen Xinru saw that the woman was either rich or noble. Tu Yufan was reading in the study, and she walked straight in and said.

"Master, there is a woman outside who looks either rich or noble. She said she wants to see you."

Tu Yufan put down the book and said doubtfully, "Let her in."

Since he refused visitors, no one has come for a long time, and he doesn't know who is looking for him.

When he saw the young woman's appearance, he frowned.

It turned out to be Guo Yumei.

Qu Jinyun's legal wife, the woman who sold Jin Xiaoying out. This woman is the daughter of the magistrate of Shacheng. She is vicious and decisive, and knows how to judge the situation. In the plot, no matter how much Qu Jinyun dislikes her, he can't do anything about her.

She is good at managing the household, filial to her parents-in-law, has both a son and a daughter, and can never do anything wrong.

She allowed Qu Jinyun to have things, but she didn't allow him to have any so-called true love.

"I wonder why this lady wants to see me, Jin."

"Master Jin, my husband is the legitimate son of the governor of Shacheng. I am here today for my husband."

"I am a distinguished guest of the prefect's family. What's your wish?"

Guo Yumei sat upright in the chair with a pleasant expression.

"When my husband came to Shao County, he accidentally met Mr. Jin's daughter. He missed her so much after returning home that he actually ranked second in the provincial examination."

Tu Yufan: "——This can only mean that he is not well-educated. My daughter is not willing to admit these false charges."

Guo Yumei paused for a moment, her expression stiffened for a second, then she slowly said, "Now my mother-in-law wants me to discuss with Master Jin. If I can make my daughter the prefect, I will definitely welcome her as a concubine. I heard that Master Jin was born in a peasant family and has no one to support him. If he marries the prefect, he will be able to be much smoother in the future, whether he becomes an official or continues to take the imperial examination."

Tu Yufan's face was gloomy. Qu Jinyun couldn't protect Xiao Xi in his previous life, and now he was using such despicable means.

A deep affection that one thinks is useless.

"Madam, you are joking. Even if I am desperate, I will not let my daughter be a concubine. Concubines are inferior. My daughter will definitely be accepted as a wife by her husband."

Guo Yumei was not angry, but even secretly happy in her heart. She came here just to please her mother-in-law. Who would be willing to let her husband take a concubine, especially the daughter of a juren, and not be able to deal with her at will? Wouldn't it be a nuisance to keep her in front of her?

Moreover, the mother-in-law was arrogant because she thought she was just a small juren and she could do whatever she wanted. She did not think about the fact that if she sent her own daughter to the prefect as a concubine just to curry favor with him, and if the news got out, how would she survive in the officialdom?

Guo Yumei stood up and said regretfully: "Since Master Jin is unwilling, we will not force him. We hope you will not blame me if we have offended you. My husband loves me so much that he has almost gone insane."

Tu Yufan narrowed his eyes and watched Guo Yumei leave. Compared to this woman, what he disliked the most was Qu Jinyun. He acted like a passionate male protagonist, but brought endless troubles to Jin Xiaoying. It was simply disgusting.

The best ending is to have nothing to do with each other forever.
