Clear Wear and Lie to Win

Chapter 286
Mrs. Duan didn't know if there was something wrong with her mind, so she said, "How can the Guo family compare with ours?"

The Guo family is indeed not as good as the Duan family now, but the Guo family is not as bad as Mrs. Duan said.

After all, the Duan family can marry their younger sister to the Guo family, and the Guo family still has some skills.

Master Duan said angrily, "You are the one who is used to being a loving mother who loses her children, and Kun'er was paid for by you."

"Master, how can you say that, I'm not for his own good, I'm just such a son, I don't love him or anyone else."

"Don't talk about this matter, let him think about it carefully, so as not to cause trouble in the future, and then bring harm to his family, you go back!"

Madam Duan was naturally not reconciled: "Master, why do you want to do this for a young boy?"

Master Duan only said: "You, woman's benevolence, since you are so stubborn, you should take a good rest."

Said that he wanted to say: "Come here, take Madam back, and leave the affairs of the house to my younger siblings."

"Master, what do you mean?"

Mrs. Duan obviously found it unbelievable, she couldn't believe that the person next to her pillow could be so cruel.

"Take it back, and come out when you think about it."

The end of the new year is approaching, and he can't keep her locked up for long. After all, during the Chinese New Year, entertainment is a must. He can receive male guests who come to his house, but he still needs a woman to show up in the backyard.

"Ma'am, the Elder Master sent someone to say, please help me take care of the house for a few days."

Mrs. Duan heard it, and said clearly: "What did sister-in-law do?"

Apparently this isn't the first time this has happened.

The servant girl was very proficient in the news in the backyard, and the servant girl said: "I heard that the young master made a mistake and was punished and grounded by the old master. The eldest lady went to intercede, but was taken out from the study. As for what she said, I don't know."

"Duan Kun? What did he do?"

He was fined and grounded during the New Year's Eve, which is probably not a small matter.

"The servant will go and inquire again."

Mrs. Duan said: "It's not necessary, just look at the big house's affairs. Knowing too much may not be a good thing. Since the eldest brother sent someone to talk about it, let's ask someone to bring the right cards."

"Yes, ma'am."

The person in charge of the Duan family became the second wife of Duan.

Madam Duan's mood can be imagined, especially as the Chinese New Year is approaching recently, there is still a lot of oil and water in it.

Mrs. Duan also took care of the house before, and she got started very quickly, but nothing happened to Duan's house.

"Ma'am, Miss is here."

When Mrs. Duan heard that her daughter had arrived, she smiled a little more.

When she gave birth to her daughter, she was tricked and hurt her body, so she only had one daughter. Second Master Duan was better than First Master Duan, even though there were more women in the back house, but how much respect did he have for his first wife.

Coupled with the crime of giving birth to a daughter, Master Duan's backyard is much more stable than that of the eldest house.

The Second Madam Duan concentrates on raising her daughter on weekdays. The Second Master Duan once asked her to raise a concubine, but she refused. Die, in the filial piety, the concubine will not treat her badly.

Besides, she also has a dowry herself, and she doesn't need a bastard to support her.

"Let her in quickly."

As soon as Duan Xinyue came in, she smiled and said, "Mother."

Mrs. Duan has pinned all the joy of living on her daughter in her life, so she is naturally happy to see her.

"Come on, come to mother."

The mother and daughter had a conversation, and then Duan Xinyue said: "Mother, what did Uncle Madam do?"

Mrs. Duan said: "What did someone tell you?"

Duan Xinyue said: "I met Xinru when I came here, mother, you should know the virtues of my cousin."

Mrs. Duan was wronged for her daughter.

Although her husband is not an old bastard, one thing is that he is indeed incompetent. A sixth-rank official still finds a relationship to sit on. She thinks that this will be the case in her life.

So in the face of the big house, the second house lacks confidence.

Because of lack of confidence, she mostly avoids facing the second room. Xinru is the first daughter of the first room, and being raised by Mrs. Duan is really a bit self-contained.

It's nothing to do in Duan's mansion on weekdays, after all, there is really no one in the mansion who can take care of her.

The point is that Xinru likes to compare with Xinyue the most. Xinyue follows her mother's appearance and looks gentle and pleasant, but Xinru is different. Her facial features are a bit like her father's. Although she is not ugly, she lacks the delicateness of her daughter's family Gentle.

This is also the reason why Xinru dislikes Xinyue.

Mrs. Duan was grounded, and Duan Kun was grounded. Duan Xinru, the direct daughter and sister, was naturally taunted when she saw Xinyue.

When she was young, Duan Xinyue didn't understand, she felt wronged, she was a younger sister, even if she didn't like her, why did she talk about her, and why?

When she grows up, Duan Xinyue also understands that because their second wife needs to rely on the first wife everywhere, she needs to bow down.

Later, Xinru became more and more over the top, and would come to her in front of her if she was unhappy, and gradually she didn't take her seriously.

Mrs. Duan said distressedly: "I have wronged my Yue'er."

Duan Xinyue didn't feel wronged, she just took advantage of it.

"Mother, with my cousin's temperament, she will suffer when she gets married in the future. My daughter will not feel wronged."

Anyway, if Duan Xinru doesn't change, she will always meet someone who will teach her how to be a human being.

"What are you doing here today?"

"I miss my mother, come and see my mother."

"You child."

On the other side, Elder Duan called his only prostitute over.

Duan Xinru seldom came to the front yard, especially her father's study, she was a little afraid after opening it.

"Father, why did you call your daughter here?"

Elder Duan looked at his daughter who was not very attractive, and said: "You have been to Jinghai County, have you met Guo Shu?"

Duan Xinru has naturally seen it before, she doesn't have a good impression of this man, after all her brother and mother are both grounded, and she knows why.

Duan Xinru didn't want to tell the truth: "My daughter has heard of it, but she hasn't seen it."

Grandpa Duan didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Father intends to arrange a marriage for you."

Duan Xinru had a bad feeling.

"Father, what do you mean?"

"That kid Guo Shu is a good boy with a bright future. Father wants to betroth you to him."

Duan Xinru immediately said: "Father, I don't agree."

Master Duan didn't expect her to have such a big reaction.

"What do you mean? Marriage matters, parents' order and matchmaker's words, there is no room for you to disagree."

Duan Xinru looked down on Guo Shu, more precisely, the Guo family. Her aunt treated her really well, but she just didn't like the Guo family. They said that high marriages were low marriages, and she was unwilling to marry low ones.

Duan Xinru knew that her aunt intended to match her and Guo Shu. If it was her aunt's son, she might not react so much, but Guo Shu is the son of the second wife of the Guo family. Guo Shu, that is self-willing to degenerate.

"Father, then Guo Shu is nothing. Why should I marry him? No matter how good a study is, what's the use of studying? A Jinshi who can enter the Imperial Academy is also good at studying, but he will still be poor for half his life. Besides, will he know how to study?" It's not necessarily true, I don't want to marry such a person casually."

After hearing her words, Elder Duan felt that she was disobedient, but he was right.

"Otherwise, wait for him for two years. If he is really capable, it won't be too late to decide."

"Father, my daughter doesn't want to marry Guo Shu."

Grandpa Duan was puzzled, he had met Guo Shu before, he was a good-looking talent, and his temperament was outstanding, why couldn't he catch the eyes of his daughter!

"If you don't have a suitable reason today, this matter will be settled like this."

Duan Xinru really didn't want to marry Guo Shu, and his desperation really made him think of a theory.

"Father, there is a grievance between my brother and Guo Shu. My brother did such a thing to Guo Shu. It is impossible for Guo Shu not to hold grudges at all. My daughter is my brother's own sister. If my daughter marries, it is not enmity."

Mr. Duan didn't think about this question.

Seeing that her father was showing signs of loosening, Duan Xinru insisted, "Besides, daughters can't marry, but there are people who can!"

"What do you mean? Speak carefully."

Duan Xinru said yes: "Cousin Xinyue!"
