System: "The newly appointed Minister of Revenue, Jiang Xun, ran into Bai Yueguang from his youth on the street two days ago. Bai Yueguang was still charming and his silent heart was beating wildly for her. He seemed to have returned to his youth. He decided to make up for his regrets and get that woman. On impulse, he stopped the carriage and put her in his own house."

Everyone looked at Jiang Xun in surprise. They didn't expect that he would do such a thing even though he was over fifty years old.

Jiang Xun didn't expect the system to be talking about this, and he was a little unconvinced. This was at most romantic, how could it be considered cheap? He had already become the Shangshu, so couldn't he have a woman he wanted?

Qin Ruchu was speechless: "So, you want to turn Bai Yueguang into a mistress?"

If you really want to marry her, just bring her home. Besides, Jiang Xun already has a wife, and your children are all grown up, and your eldest daughter is married. If you dare to divorce your wife and marry someone else, your children will be the first to disagree.

System: "No, No, No, I can't bear to do that. She is the apple of my eye. I can't bear to let her suffer such an injustice. I want to marry her as my second wife."

Everyone looked at Jiang Xun in surprise again. Isn't this an attempt to take away Mrs. Jiang's power?

Jiang Xun stood there calmly, as if he didn't care at all, but he was cursing in his heart, what's wrong with marrying a concubine? Whose eyes are being bothered by this? Such a rough outline.

Qin Ruchu's mouth corners drooped, and her eyebrows were full of coldness: "Where does this put Madam Jiang?"

System: "Yes, yes, you are simply not a human being. If it weren't for Madam Jiang, you wouldn't be where you are today. Jiang Xun was born in poverty, and he only had a good-looking face. It was also because of his good-looking face that he was lucky enough to be favored by his current madam. Jiang Xun's madam was born in a landlord family, and was pampered at home. She raised her with a naive and innocent character. She was fascinated by Jiang Xun's face at first sight, and fell in love with him at first sight."

Everyone looked at Jiang Xun. Jiang Xun was in his thirties, with a few white hairs and wrinkles on his face. He didn't look like a handsome young man at all. It was hard to imagine that he could charm young girls with his face.

Only a few old people remembered Jiang Xun's red lips and white teeth when he was young, and they could not help but sigh in their hearts that time is a butcher knife that turns a handsome young man into a greasy old man.

Qin Ruchu: "And then, you know what it means to be struck by lightning while you're talking?"

System: "Oh, don't be impatient, I was just about to say it. Mrs. Jiang lived for sixteen years, and for the first time she fell in love with a man. She decided to marry him. She told her family about her decision, but they strongly opposed it. Because at that time, she had already arranged a marriage with her cousin, and her cousin liked her and they were well matched. In the eyes of her family, only her cousin could bring her happiness. But Mrs. Jiang was unwilling to marry. She must marry Jiang Xun. If she couldn't marry Jiang Xun, she would rather die. In the end, her family couldn't persuade her and agreed, but there was a prerequisite: Jiang Xun must pass the imperial examination. 〗

Qin Ruchu: "Her family is doing this for her own good. Otherwise, such a pampered young lady can't go to the village to live a hard life with no food to eat, right?"

Everyone agreed with what Qin Ruchu said. A loving mother will plan for her son far ahead. Mrs. Jiang's mother also hoped that her daughter could live a better life.

Jiang Xun's eyes flashed darkly. If the system hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten that memory long ago. After all, it was not a good memory for him. He was poor and looked down upon everywhere. Everyone said that he was a gigolo. He understood what his wife and mother-in-law did, but he was just indignant. Why did they look down on him? It was not him who introduced their daughter. It was obviously their daughter who fell in love with him, but they made things difficult for him.

In fact, Mrs. Wang's mother didn't look down on her, but she couldn't help but look at the young man her daughter liked a few more times, wanting to know what was so special about him. Who knew that in Jiang Xun's eyes, he despised her and didn't take her seriously.

System: "Mrs. Jiang's mother and daughter were indeed afraid that their daughter would suffer, so they decided to help Jiang Xun study, hoping that Jiang Xun would be kinder to their daughter in the future because of their efforts. Jiang Xun also knew that opportunities were rare and would never come again. She did not want to dig for food in the fields all her life and wanted to change her fate, so she studied hard. In the end, she succeeded and passed the imperial examination. On the day when she was paraded on horseback, she inadvertently looked up and met the colorful eyes of the daughter of Duke Xin. At that glance, she entered her heart and she could never forget her from then on."

Qin Ruchu seemed to be listening to a foreign language: "Colorful eyes, are you serious?"

System: "I was surprised by the sight of something rare. That day, the sun was shining brightly, shining directly into the girl's eyes, reflecting a colorful light..."

Qin Ruchu found the talk more and more outrageous, and couldn't help interrupting: "Stop, stop, stop, stop, don't say these nonsense, what next?"

System: "Jiang Xun couldn't control his heart. He couldn't help asking about her. He found out her identity and knew he couldn't get close to her. So, he went to a poetry party where she was and secretly stared at her. Unexpectedly, she found out and told him that she liked him too. He went back and asked his parents to agree to let him marry him. In this way, the two of them exchanged letters. Xin, after a period of time, it suddenly came out that Duke Xin was going to marry his legitimate daughter to the son of Dingbei Marquis. He couldn't help but go to her for confirmation. She cried and told him that she couldn't disobey the family's wishes. Thinking, she really wanted to marry 놛, but her family didn't agree. She also thought about eloping with 놌놛, but 놛 had gone through a lot of hard work to get to where she is today. She didn't want to ruin 깊놛, so she might as well forget her from now on. 〗

Qin Ruchu had a strange expression: "Is what she said true?"

Jiang Xun was angry. What did she mean? Could it be that Yuling would lie again?

System: "Is there any need to ask? This must be fake. How could a legitimate daughter of the Duke of Xin be interested in a newly minted scholar with no foundation? The reason she said that is just to keep you hanging."

Jiang Xun's pupils shrank violently. No, he didn't believe it. He must be slandering Yu Ling.

Qin Ruchu rolled her eyes: "I just want to confirm it, but Jiang Xun is such a scumbag, two-timing, a scumbag, a lowly man, so disgusting."

Jiang Xun was furious. How could he be such a scumbag? Which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? He didn't intend to abandon her. Did he have to keep his virginity for her? She shouldn't be too much.

System: 〖Host, you are wrong, 놛This is a change of heart, I have simply forgotten that there is a woman waiting for me in my hometown, poor Mrs. Jiang, she has no idea that her sweetheart likes someone else. In the middle, I was happily preparing to get married, but marrying her later was just the next best thing. 〗

Qin Ruchu praised what the system said: "Yes, if I marry my sweetheart, why would I need Mrs. Jiang now?"

Everyone looked at Jiang Xun with condemnation, calling him a scumbag.

Jiang Xun was speechless. No, no, he had never thought of abandoning his wife. After all, she had helped him. How could he bear to abandon her? Jiang Xun was not such an ungrateful person. Even if he married the legitimate daughter of Duke Xin, he would take her as a concubine.

System: "In fact, if he really wants to marry his beloved and abandon Madam Jiang, it might be a good thing for Madam Jiang now. It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one."

Young love will fade away with the passage of time, and in the end only a memory without any itching will remain.

Qin Ruchu nodded in her heart: "Don't tell me, if Mrs. Jiang had been abandoned, she would probably not have encountered these bad things. Now it's good, her husband has a white moonlight, and the white moonlight has returned. How sad she must be to know."

System: "Yes, Madam Jiang loves Jiang Xun because he has someone in his heart. Jiang Xun has no concubines and only has Madam Jiang as his wife. In Madam Jiang's eyes, Jiang Xun lives with her alone, so she devotes all her heart to him. Bai Yueguang has also found out about this, so she is ready to reveal the truth and give Madam Jiang a big move. It would be best if she can piss Madam Jiang off to death or make her sick. If not, it doesn't matter. The Jiang residence will definitely be in chaos, and then she can take advantage of the opportunity and completely replace Madam Jiang. 〗

Qin Ruchu: "What an ambitious woman, but unfortunately she uses her ambition in the wrong place."

If she applied it to her career, she would have no worries about making a breakthrough. It can only be said that the world restricts her from exerting herself.

Jiang Xun shook his head in his heart. No, that's not the case. Yu Ling is gentle and kind, and she doesn't fight or compete. She would never be as vicious as they say.

System: "She was not a kind person. Otherwise, why do you think she was divorced at such an old age? She had children. For the sake of her children, her husband's family would tolerate her as much as possible, because she could not tolerate her husband's concubines and illegitimate children. She killed each one she married, and finally she could not tolerate even the children from the neighboring room. She was afraid that they would compete with her own family for the family property, so she wanted to get rid of them. As a result, she was discovered. People wanted to send her to the family temple, but she didn't want to. She knew that once she left, she would never come back in her lifetime, even if her son became the head of the family in the future, because the clan would definitely not want to. They believed that she was a bad woman and would not tolerate her. The family temple was poor, and she could endure it for a while, but she couldn't endure it for the rest of her life. She made so much noise that people simply divorced her.

Jiang Xun retorted loudly in his heart, what nonsense, what nonsense, it was obviously the second wife who joined forces with the illegitimate sons and daughters to harm her. After the truth was revealed, the illegitimate sons and daughters were afraid of taking the responsibility and finally committed suicide to apologise. The second wife turned around and said that she forced them to death and they divorced her to avenge their dead child. It was not like what she said.

Qin Ruchu was stunned by Jiang Yuling's ruthlessness and decisiveness: "So she was planning to remarry from the beginning?"

Otherwise, life after being divorced would not be much better than that in the family temple, or even worse. After all, the family temple at least provided food, clothing and shelter, but after being divorced, everything had to be borne by herself, and after being divorced, the dowry could not be taken back. Jiang Yuling, who could not bear the hard life, would definitely not be able to survive.
