Chapter 290: Jumping into the well
Ying Qizheng quickly knelt beside Hu Youzhu and pleaded, "Grandpa, it's my mother who's been under too much pressure lately and has been distracted. My family hasn't treated me badly, and we won't separate this family."
The clan leader glanced at Ying Qizheng and said to Hu Youzhu, "Since you can't give any examples, then dividing the family is your family affair.
You brothers go home and discuss it, and I will take charge of it for you."
The clan leader should not comment on Hu Youzhu's character.
Ying Qi has never suffered any loss in the Ying family.
You can't take advantage of everything without contributing anything!
The sacrificial ceremony ended quickly.
Ying Zhilin protected Wen Yan and walked out.
Among the crowd of people, she saw a skinny figure that looked familiar.
When she wanted to confirm, he had disappeared.
Wen Yan had no choice but to give up.
After leaving the ancestral hall, she was about to ask Ying Zhilin why he didn't help her refuse, when Lixia came to her and said, "Someone from the grocery store brought some wine."
"Has the wine from the restaurant been delivered?"
"It has been moved into the warehouse."
"Then you should ask the grocer to wait. The banquet is about to start, and I'm very busy."
After Wen Yan finished giving instructions, he went to talk to Ying Zhilin, but there was no trace of him around.
Slipped away long ago.
Wen Yan took a walk around the kitchen and found that with her mother-in-law in charge, everything was in order.
Wen Yan felt relieved and returned to his house.
The female guests would dine there, so she had to go back to take charge.
She walked back with Lixia and Qinghe, talking and laughing all the way.
Suddenly, Wen Yan felt like someone was watching her.
She looked in the direction she felt, but found nothing.
Lixia noticed her abnormality and asked, "Miss? What's wrong?"
Wen Yan shook her head. "Nothing. Maybe I saw it wrong."
The three continued to move forward.
At the grain field, Huang Ying'er looked at Wen Yan who was walking away. Her originally pretty face was twisted with anger.
"Why? Why can others do it, but I can't?
Wen Yanneng was able to be friendly and pleasant to other concubines, talk and laugh with them, and live in peace with them.
But he treats me coldly, makes things difficult for me and excludes me everywhere?
Therefore, it should be known that Lin did not want to take a concubine, but he just did not want to take herself as the concubine.
It’s not that Wen Yan can’t tolerate a concubine, it’s just that she can’t tolerate herself.
This couple is so vicious!"
Huang Ying'er tightened her grip on the pouch at her waist: "Since we can't live together in glory, then let's die together!"
She followed the rice fields and headed towards the Wen Yan family's house.
The goddess who went to watch the ceremony has already followed Mrs. Bai back to Wen Yan's house.
After Wen Yan's greeting, he went to the warehouse to take a look.
As they approached, they saw a figure flashing at the warehouse door.
Wen Yan saw it clearly this time, it was really her!
"Huang Ying'er!" Wen Yan called out.
The figure was frightened and ran away in panic.
After Wen Yan came back, she naturally heard the rumors about taking a concubine.
Huang Ying'er is deeply in love with Ying Zhilin. If she heard this, I wonder how sad she would be.
She is sensitive and fragile. If she believes it, she will probably become depressed and do something stupid.
Wen Yan hurriedly said to Li Xia, "Go and get her back quickly."
"Yes." Lixia immediately chased after him.
Qing He was puzzled and said, "Miss, you are really nice to Huang Ying'er."
"Huang Ying'er and Ying Zhilin have been childhood sweethearts, so I will naturally help them get together." Wen Yan whispered, "Once I become your concubine, I will be your concubine for life.
As long as Huang Ying'er is patient and can wait until I divorce Ying Zhilin, she can marry Ying Zhilin in style and be his legal wife. Isn't that better than squeezing in as a concubine now?"
As long as she is willing, I can keep her by my side and train her for three or four years.
I guarantee that she will be a qualified official wife in the future."
In the warehouse separated by a wall, Ying Zhilin was holding a jar of wine and could hear the conversation outside the door clearly.
Hearing Wen Yan talk about divorce so straightforwardly and casually, he helped him discipline his wife.
Ying Zhilin was so angry that his eyes turned red.
Wen Yan actually had no idea about her situation.
Does she not like the way she looks?
Or is it that my figure is not attractive enough?
Or does she despise herself for having too little education and too poor a family background?
He has no way to deal with the former.
But he can work hard on the last two items.
He could take the imperial examination and become the top scorer, and after becoming an official, he could work hard to achieve political achievements and win a first-class imperial edict for her.
The more he thought about it, the more wronged he felt, and tears were almost coming out.
Outside the house, Qinghe had never been reborn, so naturally she didn't understand Wen Yan's decision.
Qing He asked, "Miss, don't you have any feelings for your son-in-law?"
Wen Yan shook her head.
Qing He asked: "Why?
Apart from his poor family background, my son-in-law is actually good in all aspects.
He is handsome and in good health. He won the title of Jieyuan this time and should be able to pass the Jinshi examination next year.
The key is that he cares deeply about your affairs."
"Is there?" Wen Yan frowned.
"Of course. You've been away from home all year round and don't know your uncle's intentions. We've lived here for more than a month and have seen everything for what it is today."
Miss, you don’t know…”
With a squeak.
The warehouse door was opened from the inside.
Then he saw Ying Zhilin standing at the inner door holding a wine jar.
He was caught talking about people behind their backs.
Qinghe lowered her head guiltily.
Wen Yan looked straight at him and smiled kindly: "Are you coming over to move the wine?"
"Yes." Ying Zhilin also had a calm expression, "I'll take the wine over and offer it to the ancestors."
"Go quickly." Wen Yan made way for him to go first.
Ying Zhilin nodded, and suddenly stopped as he passed her.
He turned around and looked at Wen Yan and said, "I must explain what Qinghe said just now.
I did help you with a lot of small things when you were not at home.
But that's just because we are still in the couple period.
You paid for my education and helped me support my family. How could I just sit back and enjoy the fruits of my labor without saying anything in return?
I remember you said this is called mutual benefit.
I hope Madam won't develop any inappropriate thoughts about me just because of a few words from others."
Ying Zhilin was reminding Wen Yan that he was doing his job impartially and asked her not to have any inappropriate thoughts because of his consideration.
She had always reminded Ying Zhilin like this in the past, but she didn't expect it to be the other way around this time.
Wen Yan was completely embarrassed.
She breathed a sigh of relief as she promised herself that she wouldn't.
She also didn't want to get divorced after only six months of marriage.
As long as Ying Zhilin doesn't have that intention, this cooperative relationship can still be maintained!
Ying Zhilin felt like he had eaten a sour cucumber when he saw that she was guarding against him like a thief.
Sad and heartbreaking.
As soon as he turned around, his eyes turned red again!
You should know that Lin is far away.
Qing He stuck out her tongue: "Miss, did I say something wrong?"
"It's okay, it's just a normal discussion." Wen Yan went around the warehouse and found nothing unusual, so she asked someone to move all the alcohol out.
Two jars were kept by the female guest, and the rest were sent to the ancestral hall and looked after by a special person.
Lixia was not familiar with Songshan Village and soon lost Huang Ying'er.
Huang Ying'er originally wanted to poison the person, but she knew that Linli was in the warehouse, so she failed.
I can't even drag the people I hate to hell.
Huang Ying'er was disheartened and passed by a well on the way.
She sat by the well for a while, then jumped in without hesitation.
