However, whether it's one person or two, we must thwart their idea.
He sighed, "Out of consideration for the many favors your father did for me back then, I'll only tell you this."
Qin Wanyue's eyes widened suddenly, her expression full of smug satisfaction at her successful scheme. She quickly replied, "Don't worry, Senior Brother, I absolutely won't tell anyone!"
I've never considered anyone else in my life.
If there's a way to make money, who would tell others? Once she and her husband have earned enough money, they can buy ebony hairpins—no, they want gold hairpins!
They could move to a bigger house, hire two maids to serve them, and live a life of luxury adorned with gold and silver.
Fan Jin wasn't embarrassed at all and naturally replied, "It was the money given by my father-in-law!"
"Your...father-in-law?" Qin Wanyue asked stammeringly.
Isn't that just relying on the wife's family? How is that any different from being a live-in son-in-law?
No, this is even more shameful than being a live-in son-in-law! It has always been despised and looked down upon by intellectuals.
"Yes, I'm just a scholar, and I'm almost thirty and I haven't even passed the county-level exam. My wife and children are eating chaff and wild vegetables with me. My parents-in-law couldn't bear to see their daughter suffer, so they gave us some of their savings." Fan Jin said, noticing the disgust and disdain in Qin Wanyue's eyes.
Qin Wanyue genuinely disliked it.
I just felt that she had wasted her sincerity!
No wonder Fan Jin dressed poorly himself but made sure his wife and children dressed well; it turned out his father-in-law gave him the money!
Furthermore, if you have a little money, do you dare to go to Shan Hai Lou to eat and drink well? Don't you want to live a life of luxury? No wonder you were poor for more than ten years before!
No wonder the three men in his life said his wife was a shrew and a shrew. It seems that the reason his wife dared to be so domineering was because her money came from her parents.
After the initial disgust and anger subsided, I fell into deep distress.
Ping Sheng was still waiting for her to get information back. If he found out it was given by his father-in-law, he would definitely compare it.
She used to resent and mock her father for not being able to help her, and now she wants to add another charge of not giving him money?
But if she says she didn't get any information out of her, then she'll seem useless...
Fan Jin looked at Qin Wanyue's ever-changing expressions, but the lingering affection he had felt for her since their first meeting was gone.
He was satisfied: "It's cold, and my wife and children are waiting for me. Next time..."
Qin Wanyue interrupted her without any politeness: "There will be no next time! It is already against the rules and etiquette for Wanyue to come out today, so please do not say anything in front of outsiders."
"Okay," Fan Jin replied readily.
Qin Wanyue, carrying her basket, turned and hurried away.
Fan Jin returned to the oxcart, took the ox rope from Fan Jiang's hand, and said gently, "Let's go home."
The five little ones cheered and followed on either side of the oxcart.
Shui Qing leaned closer and asked curiously, "Didn't you say everything was fine at first? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
And then he stormed off in a huff?
Fan Jin smiled helplessly and said, "What's the point of saying 'good'? How genuine is it when someone you haven't seen for years suddenly comes to reminisce?"
They came with a purpose, but failed to achieve it, so naturally they left in anger.
Shui Qing: ...She thought men had no resistance to women they grew up with.
I never imagined Fan Jin could see things so clearly.
But other men might see it clearly too, but they're just pretending not to know and enjoying the ambiguity.
Fan Jin looked at the person beside him, pursed his lips, and said in a tone full of grievance, "When I talk to other women, aren't you worried? Why didn't you come to urge me even once?"
