Chapter 101 Uncertainty (pink ticket 140

"San brother, I'm dead without regrets when I get you a promise before getting married." Feng Wanqing's voice was filled with indescribable sadness. "Although the other party is over 20 years older than me and is a Xuxian again, after all, he is a formal marriage... My children don't have to be as humble as me in the future... Third brother, this is the last time I have seen you, you should take care of yourself." As she said that, she hugged the stupid man in front of her, "San brother, you are kind-hearted and sincere to others. You never know the hardships of the world and never know the sinisterness of people's hearts, but the person around you really makes me feel at ease."

Liang Jimin looked at her blankly: "You, are you going to get married? Yes, who is it?"

Feng Wanqing sighed quietly: "Third brother, now it's just a discussion on marriage... My matter is easy to talk about, and what I worry about the most now is you!"

Liang Jimin seemed to have heard clearly what Feng Wanqing was saying at this time.

There was a deep pain in his eyes: "Who are you going to marry?"

Feng Wanqing's eyes turned red and said, "Third Brother, you, don't do this. If you do this, will I worry more about you?"

Liang Jimin looked quite excited: "Worry about me? Are you worried about me?"

Feng Wanqing bit her red lips lightly and said softly: "Third brother...you, you must be careful of your third sister-in-law..."

Liang Jimin was stunned.

Feng Wanqing smiled bitterly: "Everyone must be talking privately, saying that I pushed her into the water, right?"

"No, no one said that." Liang Jimin answered quite guilty.

Feng Wanqing smiled self-deprecatingly: "Not only that, she must have defended me in front of the grandmother, right?"

Liang Jimin did not answer, but his eyes were filled with doubts.

Feng Wanqing was already tearful: "If it were me, what would be better if I did this? Let others discover your relationship with me? Or would I be crazy and think that without Shen Muqing, I could marry you... No, nothing. I have never thought about it like this. I devote myself to your own good. As long as you can live a good life, it doesn't matter what I do. How could I do this kind of thing?"

Liang Jimin looked full of suspicion: "Yes, but why did she want..." Before he finished speaking, he was shocked, "Is it that she suspected you..."

A trace of shock flashed in Feng Wanqing's eyes, and a little nervous in his smile: "Third Brother, what have you remembered?"

Liang Jimin frowned: "You have embroidered a set of fan covers for me. I like it very much. I can't bear to use them. I often take them out and play with them while studying." As he said that, his brows gradually stretched, and his gaze became affectionate when he looked at Feng Wanqing. But this expression only lasted for a moment, and his brows were locked tightly again, "But once, she actually searched my study room privately and took away the set..."

Feng Wanqing said with a "Oh" and said, "I didn't expect that she would act so dirty by calling herself a famous lady."

"She claims to be a famous lady?" Liang Jimin was stunned, "When did she say this?"

Feng Wanqing looked embarrassed and said, "Third Brother, don't ask."

A hint of annoyance flashed in Liang Ji's eyes, and he really didn't ask again.

"Will this be the case? So she doubted me..." Feng Wanqing said, tears flowing down her face, "San brother, look at this person, whether it is vicious or not. She doubts, but she insists on everyone knowing it. What's the good thing about this? Where is the husband and wife put the third brother?" In the end, she was already harsh.

Liang Jimin lowered her head, her face full of guilt: "Fifth sister, it's all my fault. I've implicated you..."

"San brother, no matter how good I am, others will not look at me directly. I will accept no matter how much dirty water I poured in." Feng Wanqing burst into tears, "But third brother, you are different. You are a new Jinshi, and you will be taken into the Shujishi again soon. If any evil deeds are reported at this time, the future will be complete..."

Liang Jimin heard the corner of his mouth slightly squinted, and was about to say something. Feng Wanqing had already said first: "We grew up together. No one knows the character and ambition of the third brother better than me. Staying away from brother-in-law's disputes, reading, fishing, watching the moon and planting flowers, and traveling with like-minded people. This is what the third brother thinks, and this is what the third brother wants. But the third brother is also very filial and cannot bear to go against his aunt's wishes. He forced himself to participate in the imperial examination and barely got to this point today."

Liang Jimin's eyes shone and he held Feng Wanqing's hand tightly: "Only the fifth sister in this world understands my heart."

Hearing this, Chen Muqing shook his head gently and turned away from Hsinchu Courtyard.

*******

Early the next morning, Chen Muqing asked Liuchun to go to Conglutang with a food box.

Liang Jimin had just gotten up, and Chengxin was serving him to dress.

Chen Muqing was waiting in the main hall.

After a while, Liang Jimin walked out with a radiant look.

He asked Chen Muqing with a smile: "Why did you come here so early?"

Chen Muqing looked at Liang Jimin's gentle and elegant face, and really suspected that he had seen a ghost yesterday. But then he thought that this was the first time the two met after falling into the water, and he ignored his physical condition - this was enough to prove that what he saw yesterday was not a ghost!

She laughed at herself in her heart, pointed to a plate of fried eggs on the square table in the main hall and said, "Fresh leeks, specially sent to my husband for a try."

Liang Jimin gently glanced at the dishes on the table and smiled faintly, "Just let the people who serve you in the future do this. You are a lady of a wealthy lady, so you should not be wronged."

Chen Muqing bent his mouth and smiled softly.

"What my husband said," she responded respectfully, "In fact, I am here to discuss my husband's affairs."

Liang Jimin was very surprised.

Chen Muqing laughed and said, "When my grandmother went to see me yesterday, my grandmother asked me if my fifth cousin pushed me into the water. I heard something in this, so I asked in detail. It turned out that Youhui misunderstood that I had a fight with my fifth cousin..." She told Liang Jimin about the conversation with her husband, and finally laughed, "Originally, my grandmother has made up her mind for this matter. We juniors should not disobey, but I thought, if I really sent my fifth cousin back like this, wouldn't the fifth cousin be so untrue. So I want to go to my grandmother's place with you today to pay tribute to her and plead for her fifth cousin. Let her stay at home for a few more days, and it will not be too late to leave after the agreed day."

Liang Jimin couldn't hide the surprise on his face and said hesitantly: "You mean you are going to plead with your grandmother and let your fifth cousin stay."

Chen Muqing nodded with a smile: "She has been intimate with you since she was a child. This time she fell into the water, which was indeed an accident. How could she treat her like this because of her unintentional mistake? You are her brother, and I am her sister-in-law. You should go and help her tell her about her in front of her grandmother."

Her tone was extremely sincere, and Liang Jimin looked at Chen Muqing with a little confused.

"Oh!" Chen Muqing sighed softly, "I didn't expect that the fifth cousin's personality was so sensitive. At that time, she felt her life experience and said that she was like a rose and I was like a peony. I didn't care, and replied casually, 'I see my sister like a magnolia on the tree'..." She said, looking at Liang Jimin's expression. Then Liang Jimin nodded gently. Chen Muqing smiled slightly and continued, "Who knew that the fifth cousin cried, Youhui was a straight person again, so there was such a misunderstanding..." Liang Jimin listened, his expression gradually relaxed, and the expression on his face was a little softer than before. "It was all my fault!" Chen Muqing looked ashamed, "I didn't fulfill his responsibility to be a sister-in-law..."

"Forget it, forget it," Liang Jimin smiled, "It's a misunderstanding, just solve it."

When Chen Muqing heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief: "Young man doesn't blame me!" As he said that, he patted his chest playfully, "I didn't sleep well last night!"

Liang Jimin was stunned. Chen Muqing smiled and wrapped the chopsticks with a handkerchief and handed them to him: "Then my husband, have breakfast quickly - we can also go to my grandmother's place early, so as not to spread the words to my fifth cousin's ears, and my fifth cousin is sad."

Liang Jimin took the chopsticks from Chen Muqing's hand and looked at her with a smile like a spring breeze.

*******

When the grandmother saw Chen Muqing pleading for Feng Wanqing, she quietly glanced at Liang Jimin, letting everyone in the house retreat without any comment, leaving only Chen Muqing to speak.

Before the wife could speak, Chen Muqing smiled and said, "Don't bother grandmother, I did propose this on my own initiative."

The lady was stunned.

Chen Muqing explained: "My husband is about to take the exam for Shujishi. Everything should be the overall situation first. What's more, my husband and my fifth cousin are in love. As a wife, I should have taken the initiative to help him arrange it. But first, my husband has never told me about this, and I don't know. Second, our marriage is short, and my husband takes the house so early, so I'm afraid that those who are interested will criticize me in the future. Third, my fifth cousin is a relative of my mother, and I propose to be a concubine for my husband, but I'm afraid that my mother will feel insulted. What's the idea?"

Before she finished speaking, the lady hugged her in her arms: "My son, you are so virtuous." As she said that, she sighed, "It's really your mother-in-law who was not so arrogant. She came to my room to cry in the middle of the night last night, and didn't think about how wronged you were!" As she said that, she called Liang Jimin in and said to him one by one, and then said, "Why don't you kneel down and admit your wife's mistakes!"

Liang Jimin was stunned when he heard this. It was not until the eldest lady scolded him for kneeling that he realized that he could not help but feel a little joy on his face, and he hurriedly knelt at Chen Muqing's feet: "Thank you, my wife, for your fulfillment!"

Chen Muqing avoided Liang Jimin's kneeling and said with some complaints: "You, I, husband and wife are one. If you have any matter to my husband, you must not hide it from me. If there is another time, I will leave it alone."

Liang Jimin's face turned slightly red, and she actually bowed to Chen Muqing to the end.

The lady looked at her and laughed, saying, "Young couple should be so harmonious."

The two stood side by side, the man was handsome and the woman was as beautiful as a flower. The lady loved her more and more, and the more she looked at her, she liked her more and more. She raised her hand and gently hit Liang Jimin on the head: "You little brat, there is nothing better luck than you. You won't go back to Conglutang to review your books and prepare for the exam for Shujishi--you can't let your father-in-law down on your expectations for you!"

Liang Jimin retreated with a smile - before leaving, she looked at Chen Muqing with gratitude.

Chen Muqing smiled and looked at Liang Jimin's back disappearing, then turned around and said to the lady: "Grandma, are we going to invite my mother over and ask her what the old man means?"

The lady was stunned and said with a calm face: "Would it be a pity for Feng Wu to marry our Ji Min? If Ji Min hadn't done such a foolish thing, even if you told me personally, I wouldn't agree. I did this, just to take care of the Feng family's face."
