Jiang Mingxin's words can be accurately described in two words: vulgar!
But for such a pretentious and subtle scene, vulgarity can be used to break the situation.
Anyway, she has already made the ugly words clear. If they really intend to make a fuss about it, that would be a real devaluation of their own status.
There is no pattern.
Kong Xintang glanced around and found that the second and third wives, who used to be so arrogant in front of her, now had dark faces and couldn't help but laugh.
But she quickly calmed down.
"Extortion? A country girl is really rude. She's so shameless."
"Since you know Xintang is just the adopted daughter of the Kong family, any smart person would know what to do. If you insist on staying, you will be asking for trouble. In the end, you will be the one who gets embarrassed."
The Third Lady is sarcastic in her words and is the most ambivalent of the Kong family's daughters-in-law.
If any woman heard these words, she would easily blush and feel her self-esteem hurt.
However, Jiang Mingxin did not play by the rules. Instead of blushing, he smiled openly.
"I'm sorry, I'm from the countryside. I've been stupid since I was a kid and can't tell the difference between good and bad."
"But to be honest, I'm really not used to your kind of aristocratic family. There are so many rules and it's so pretentious! If Xintang hadn't invited me, I wouldn't have wanted to come."
"You, you shameless ..."
The third wife punched the cotton and was accused of being pretentious, which made her very angry.
However, a casual look from Mrs. Kong made her speechless and she shut her mouth obediently.
She glanced around and looked at Jiang Mingxin again.
This is no ordinary country girl.
She was able to send her gambling-addicted biological father to prison, report tomb robbers, and win the favor of the Xing family. Her intelligence and wisdom are unmatched by ordinary people.
She had obviously heard the hidden meaning just now, so she pretended to be rude to vent Kong Xintang's anger.
After all, it is difficult for a scholar to explain his reason when he meets a soldier.
This girl is even more powerful than she imagined.
"You are such a joke kid. Who would ever talk about something like extortion? But I welcome you to our Kong family."
"It's just that the Kong family isn't as good as you think. They're not some great, wealthy family. They just have a few learned scholars from generation to generation, so they're just a little famous."
Mrs. Kong's words were undoubtedly too Versailles.
Although Jiang Mingxin didn't buy it, he didn't refute it.
She chose to take advantage of the situation and said with understanding: "Is that so? That's pretty impressive. Scholars are all very capable. They are the role models I should emulate."
"It's just that your wives are speaking too intricately. So this is how all ladies of high rank speak?"
Madam Kong smiled faintly: "Not entirely."
"Since Xintang invited you here, just follow her around the courtyard. The Kong family doesn't have much else to offer, except for a lot of old, tattered things. They're probably not what a girl like you would like."
But Jiang Mingxin's eyes lit up and his eyebrows curved with a smile.
"You're so kind. Whether you understand it or not, just take a look."
After saying that, she took Kong Xintang's arm and walked out.
The third wife and the second wife looked at each other and stood up at the same time.
"Mom, let's go and take a look too."
Madam Kong saw through their thoughts at a glance, but did not stop them. She closed her eyes and waved her hand: "I'm tired and want to rest. You can go, but don't neglect the guests."
Since Jiang Mingxin has the ability to join the National Security Bureau.
I believe he will not be easily bullied by his two daughters-in-law.
It’s been a long time since the house has been so lively. It’s nice to have some fun.
On this side, Jiang Mingxin had already walked into the second courtyard with Kong Xintang.
"Wow, this atrium is quite spacious!"
This quadrangle courtyard of the Confucius Mansion in Beijing was built under the supervision of a descendant in the Ming Dynasty.
It has large specifications, fine workmanship and precious materials. Not only is it a luxurious house with four entrances and four exits, it also has a back garden covering more than 200 square meters.
Usually when female relatives came to visit, the wives of the Kong family would take them to the back garden to drink tea, appreciate the flowers, and chat about family matters.
So this time Kong Xintang took Jiang Mingxin to the garden first.
But due to the time of year, there were only a few red plum trees still blooming in the snow in the garden, and there was really nothing to see.
After walking around a bit, she was going to take Jiang Mingxin through the hanging flower door to her own room.
Mrs. Kong Er cried out at this time: "Oh, why are my pearl earrings gone?"
Jiang Mingxin and Kong Xintang stopped.
Looking back, I saw Mrs. Kong anxiously touching her right earlobe and looking down for something.
The third wife also hurried to help her look for it.
"Are those the pure gold and Ming Dynasty pearl earrings my second brother gave you? You can't lose something this valuable."
As he spoke, his eyes swept across Jiang Mingxin's face strangely.
Although he didn't say anything, the suspicious look in his eyes said it all.
Jiang Mingxin found it extremely funny.
Mrs. Kong would actually use such a low-class method?
But then again, in this era, domestic fighting stories are not popular yet.
These methods of framing people in the harem cannot be learned from outside, so one can only rely on personal talent.
These two ladies didn't seem to have much talent, but it was possible that they didn't take her seriously and thought this little trick was enough.
Unfortunately, they met Jiang Mingxin.
She glanced at Kong Xintang and saw that she was staring at her with a frown, as if she was very worried.
"My third sister-in-law has a very powerful skill. She can quietly put things on people. She must have learned magic. When I was a child, she framed me once. She found something I didn't have on me, and I couldn't defend myself."
