Chapter 394 Women are subordinate

Song Jin didn't understand anything about war.

When it comes to being attacked from all sides, Song Jin understands.

Fuzhou is located south of Jianning, close to the sea, and is also a retreat route for the rebels. The boat people that Song Jin and Lao Huo found were most likely pirates trained by the Liu family, or they could be navy soldiers. Fuzhou seemed to be run by Governor Wang, but it was unknown how many rebel forces were hidden behind him.

If a war breaks out, Song Xiaodong will inevitably have to go to the battlefield.

This is a troublesome matter.

The two discussed whether to withdraw the personnel.

In rebellious areas, there is no personal protection.

Song Jin finally decided, "Withdraw the people. Those who can be withdrawn will be withdrawn, and those who cannot be withdrawn will hide and put their own safety first."

Xing Lun understood.

Let your subordinates retreat if they can, and save their own lives if they cannot.

Song Jin added: "We promised to send medicinal materials to Dinghaiwei this year. We can no longer take the previous route. We need to find a new route. If we find any danger, we can withdraw. It doesn't matter if we break the contract."

"The boss is worried about being intercepted by the rebels?" Xing Lun asked.

Song Jin was helpless. "Isn't it certain? Our deal with Governor Wang cannot be concealed from the Liu family's spies. If we trade at this time of year, we will most likely be targeted. It would be safer to change the route."

Just need to take a detour.

Even if we arrive in Fuzhou, the time will be delayed.

Song Jin thought for a moment and said, "Also, you can't take risks. Replace them with strangers. If something happens to you, I won't be able to explain to Aunt Yin."

Xing Lun waited for Song Jin to finish speaking before he said calmly, "Don't worry, Boss. In addition to the waterway, I have also had people open up two safe routes on land. I have people on the road as well, so don't worry."

Hearing this, Song Jin was very pleasantly surprised, "As expected of you, you are more thoughtful than I thought."

"I am also taking precautions."

Xing Lun smiled as if a little embarrassed by the praise.

Song Jin patted his shoulder and said, "Good defense! Very good defense!"

Both of Xing Lun's trade routes avoided Jianning Prefecture and took a detour before reaching Fuzhou. This was because Xing Lun knew about the instability of Jianning and had made preparations in advance. It also provided two retreat routes for those in Fuzhou.

Song Jin cannot leave the capital at the moment.

This matter can only be left to Xing Lun.

Xing Lun had dinner at Qin's house, but did not leave. Instead, he went to the courtyard prepared by Song Jin for him and Sanlang. He rested in the courtyard for one night and left before dawn the next day.

This night.

Qin Chi stayed in the palace and did not return home.

Song Jin woke up, had breakfast, and went to see Old Li.

Old Li is awake.

After saying a few words of concern, Song Jin left without asking why Old Li was injured, which was very sensible.

This made Old Li feel inexplicably guilty. When he saw Old Man Hong, he said, "I saw my wife this morning. She came to care about me, which made me feel indebted."

"What have you done to offend your wife?" asked Old Man Hong.

Old Li was stunned, "No."

"So what do you owe?"

"This..." Old Li was at a loss for words. Could he say that he did not tell his wife the reason for his injury, as if he was treating his wife as an outsider?

Old Man Hong stared at him seriously, "Young Master is the one we should be loyal to. Madam is just his vassal, you have to distinguish between the primary and the secondary. Regarding Young Master's secrets, the less Madam knows, the better, this will be more beneficial to Young Master. Madam only needs to bear children for Young Master, manage the harem, and not cause trouble for Young Master."

"Alright, alright, why are you so serious? I can still tell the difference. Besides, the madam has helped the young master a lot over the years." Old Li said unwillingly.

Old Man Hong warned: "Women's kindness."

He values ​​Song Jin, but he will not put her on the same level as Qin Chi.

After all, this world is dominated by men, and women are subordinate to them.

Old Li responded perfunctorily, urging Old Hong to deal with the business quickly. Thinking of his own injury, he became furious and gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Hong, go and deal with the Zhangjiawan matter quickly. Those damned traitors who dared to betray the young master deserve to die no matter what their reasons are."

"Do I need you to give orders?"

The evil spirit in Old Man Hong has not subsided.

People who are timid dare not look directly at it.

After Old Li was rescued, Old Hong took over the matter. All the people who had betrayed Zhangjiawan last night had been dealt with, and even their stronghold was burned down.

All traces were erased.

The personnel who were in contact with Zhangjiawan were being investigated and interrogated. Those who had problems would be executed, and those who had no problems would be dismissed. This was very much like the vigorous and resolute style of old man Hong.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Song Jin standing at the door.

He happened to hear the conversation between the two, so he handed the tonic in his hand to Qin Qi beside him, indicating that she should take it in, and Song Jin turned and left.

Qin Qi had a bad feeling.

But she couldn't say what was wrong.

Watching Song Jin walking away, Qin Qi raised his hand and knocked on Old Li's door.

When Song Jin heard these words, he didn't show much emotion.

She had been mentally prepared for this.

It's just a little bit uncomfortable. A woman who has never experienced freedom may accept her fate and be trapped in the rear house. Those who have experienced freedom will inevitably be a little wild in their hearts.

Song Jin is such a woman.

She has always been committed to her duties.

I fulfilled my responsibilities in this family and got along well with Qin Chi's people. There had never been any conflicts or bad tempers.

Standing in the garden, looking at the brightly blooming crabapple flowers for a long time, she sighed slightly, a hint of sadness stained her brows. When she heard the footsteps gradually approaching in the distance, Song Jin perked up again.

The sadness just now seemed to have disappeared.

He returned to his usual indifference, with a gentle smile on his face.

Mu Ting came over quickly, "Boss, it's Miss Wu who's here. She wants to invite you to the teahouse for tea."

Song Jin frowned, "Did she send an invitation earlier?"

"I sent it the day before yesterday and placed the invitation in the employer's room. Didn't the employer see it?" Mu Ting remembered that she had sent a stack of invitations to Song Jin for review earlier.

Song Jin thought about it and realized that this was really true.

When her second son started crying, she let the matter go and later forgot about it after she coaxed the child.

"Miss Wu, please wait in the living room." Song Jin instructed Mu Ting and went to her dormitory. She was currently wearing casual clothes, and most importantly, she was not wearing any makeup.

After moving into this big house, there would no longer be neighbors coming to visit suddenly. Generally, guests would hand in an invitation first. As long as she didn't have guests or was not going out, Song Jin would not deliberately put on ugly makeup.

Song Jin went back to his room and found the post.

Look at the Wu family’s post above, the date is today.

If she had known earlier, she would have found an excuse to refuse. But it is not easy to find an excuse in the current situation. After all, people have already arrived at the mansion. If someone else did not receive a reply from Song Jin accepting the invitation, they would assume that Song Jin has refused. However, Wu Jingyao is quite different.

People tacitly agreed that Song Jin had accepted it!
