But because she is now also Prince Rui's concubine, I heard that she is particularly favored. Mrs. Jiang was even more unhappy when she thought of this. She snorted, glared at Qi Yuanhou, supported her daughter and entered the inner courtyard. .
Qi Yuanhou looked at Jin Xin, feeling a little embarrassed. He cleared his throat and asked, "You are in the palace, is everything okay?"
"As far as I'm concerned, Lord Marquis, everything is well with you. I don't worry about you, Lord Marquis." She said calmly.
When Qi Yuanhou heard this, his face immediately turned ugly, and his voice became much colder, "Do you blame me?"
"I don't dare. I would like to thank the prince for giving me a chance to stand up. When I come back today, I am seeking permission from the prince to come back and visit my mother." She remained calm, without any emotion at all.
When she was young, she only saw her father once or twice a year, and she had no feelings for her. She used to expect her father to be with them together, and she had great expectations. Later, when she learned his true identity, she felt disgusted. thought.
Especially after returning to the Hou Mansion, this father could do anything without limits.
He did not protect the three of them, mother and daughter, but would often provoke his mother. Whenever he came, her mother would be made things difficult for Mrs. Jiang. She was even asked by Jiang Yushu to act like a cow and a horse in front of others, and to bark like a dog.
The father watched from the sidelines but said nothing.
He missed his mother's beauty, but did not care for her. He only wanted to satisfy his own desires.
She begged him, hoping that he would let the three of them go, but what she faced was another beating.
Seeing that he grew up and his beauty surpassed that of his mother, he actually wanted to give himself to officials to play with in exchange for a promotion in his position. However, Jiang Yushu happened to be pregnant and could not serve the prince, and she was not willing to let other women occupy the prince. So he sent himself to the palace.
Only then did she escape the crisis.
She would not recognize such a father.
Seeing her cold face, Marquis Qi Yuan even snorted, "Even if you win the prince's favor, it is only temporary. When your sister successfully gives birth to the little grandson, you will still come back."
When Jin Xin heard this, she gritted her teeth. The nails on her hands under the sleeves were bent and even penetrated her skin, but she didn't feel any pain.
Yes, all men in the world are the same. No matter how favored a concubine is, she can't surpass his wife. She knows it very well.
But she will not be like her mother, letting men play with her and abandon her like a shoe.
Even if I can't find a place in Prince Rui's heart, I will fight for my own interests when I win favor, settle down my mother and younger brother, and then make plans for myself.
In short, she would not accept being sent back and become a tool for Marquis Qi Yuan to get promoted and make a fortune.
After an unpleasant meeting, she hurried to the servant's room in the backyard and saw the mother she missed.
Anshi was washing clothes. Seeing this, Jinxin hurriedly stepped forward to pull her mother, and knelt down excitedly, "Mom, my daughter is back."
Anshi was stunned, watching her daughter come back intact, wearing luxurious satin. Although this outfit was not very expensive, it was still very exquisite.
"You haven't suffered these days, have you?" An's eyes were slightly hot, her nose was sore, and she looked at her daughter guiltily.
An's family was actually a very arrogant person and had never thought about marrying someone as a concubine. However, she fell in love with a liar, causing her two children to become nameless and statusless slaves.
Now, her daughter has become someone else's concubine. She has really harmed her children.
Jin Xin shook her head hurriedly, wiped away her tears, and said with a smile, "I lived a great life in the prince's palace. The prince loved me and gave me many things. There are fifty taels of silver here. Mother, please keep it and don't let anyone know. ."
He said and stuffed a bag of silver into her.
Anshi couldn't ask for it, so she immediately pushed it back and said worriedly, "You must have a hard time in the palace. Don't I know your temper? You report good news but not bad news. You use this money to gain favors and make friends with many people. Your life will be easier."
Jin Xin smiled bitterly when she heard this. How did the An family know that in the palace, you can't live a good life with money? This money won't help, but for their mother and son, this money can make them live a happy life this year. Moisturized.
"I still have it. I kept half of it. This is what the prince rewarded me. I also have the clothes and materials. These things are all given to me by the prince. I also have monthly silver, two sets of clothes, and three meals a day. One soup will never be bad.”
Lianrong hurriedly brought the things up and placed them in front of Anshi. Anshi looked at these materials and her brows finally relaxed, but she couldn't really feel relieved.
"Where's my little brother?" Jin Xin didn't want to hear her refusal. He quickly asked about Jinrong’s whereabouts.
Now he is six years old and should have been enlightened long ago, but he is suppressed by his wife and cannot even get out of the backyard door. He entertains himself in the backyard all day long.
Why don't you see him today?
Hearing this, Mr. An sighed and said, "He went to his brothers' residence in the front yard. The Marquis said that he planned to let him learn to read with his husband, but I couldn't keep him."
When Jin Xin heard this, she felt bad. There were not many men in the Qi Yuan Hou Mansion, only three. The eldest son was the direct descendant. He was not in the manor and went to Cangshan Academy. The remaining two were the ten-year-old Jiang Quhuaai. , has a savage temperament and often goes to the backyard to torment them. An eight-year-old concubine, Jiang Qufeng, is also very shameless.
You can imagine what life is like for your six-year-old brother living alone with them.
Without much hesitation, she hurried to the front yard to find someone.
As soon as she walked in, she heard Jiang Jinrong's sharp, desperate and miserable cry. Her heart skipped a beat, and she rushed over there, where she saw a scene that made her heart ache.
The younger brother was grabbed by the servants from left to right, his pants were stripped off, and a rope of raw meat was hung around his neck. Jiang Quhuai and Jiang Qufeng shouted excitedly, bastard. In front of them was a black dog, which was covered with thick meat. The two boys struggled to hold on to one end of the rope. The black dog roared and tried to pounce forward. It must be that the hanging meat was very attractive. It stood up on its front legs in excitement, struggling and tugging forward. flutter.
Jiang Jinrong cried in despair, but the two of them laughed even more excitedly.
"Little brother!" Jin Xin rushed forward, pushed the boys on the left and right away, then tore off the raw meat and threw it on Jiang Quhuai.
The black dog immediately changed its direction and pounced over there. The boys missed it and the black dog pounced forward, making Jiang Quhuai scream and retreat.
Fortunately, the dog only ate meat and was controlled by the boys again.
"Brother, are you okay? Sister, look, where are the injuries?" Jin Xin looked over him worriedly and found that there were injuries on his back, legs, and front, caused by injections, pinches, and needles. , with numerous bruises on his body.
"Sister! Sister! Please help me! I want to go back, I don't want to be in the front yard anymore!" Jiang Jinrong cried so sadly and aggrieved that Jin Xin's heart was broken by tears.
"Catch this bitch to my young master and feed it to the dogs!" After Jiang Quhuai recovered, he yelled angrily.
