Su Mingshan's thoughts were distracted here. Before Su Lan could answer, she heard the voice of the second-class girl Yun Xue coming from outside the door.
"Miss, Mr. Qin is here. He is in the living room. I want you to come over!"
Su Mingshan's face darkened when she heard this: "No, you go and tell the master that your lady is still in the boudoir and it is not convenient for her to meet her husband."
"yes!"
After Yun Xue left, Su Mingshan picked up one of the account books from the pile on the desk and handed it to Su Lan.
"Read this account book today and tell me where the problem lies."
Su Lan reached out to take it, and after saying "yes", she recalled what she had said before.
"My servant doesn't know the specific name of Zhengsheng of Qingyun Road, but I heard that it was adapted from the storybook written by Shi Jianzhi recently. Miss, the storybook you are reading is not the recent work of Ishijian. I think Zhengsheng should be That’s Song Yi.”
Su Mingshan became interested when she heard this, and immediately said: "My father likes Shi Jianzhi very much. If Qingyun Road is based on "The Farmer's Career Path", then you take time to book a wing in Changyin Pavilion and come back. I’ll take my parents there.”
Originally, only her father liked Shi Jianzhi in the family, but recently she liked Ishi Jianzhi's book "The Career of a Farmer's Son", so she called Mr. Storyteller to read the book every day. As a result, even her mother fell in love with it.
Her father said that the style of Shi Jianzhi's storybook was very different from the previous ones.
No longer obsessed with romance, nor with all kinds of luck.
And because the male protagonist has his own advantages, he also has some minor flaws.
Because of this, the characters appear to be flesh-and-blood and particularly humane.
Her mother also liked the mischievous parents in the story books, as if they were happening around her, so she spoke highly of them.
Only she always unconsciously takes the place of her sister Li and Li Jun.
She didn't care what happened to Li Jun, she just wanted to imagine her sister Li's future through the storybook.
Just thinking about living such a good life with a divorced woman, she couldn't help but feel happy, and incidentally she also felt that her young apprentice would be good in the future.
Speaking of which, she really missed her little apprentice. She didn't know how this girl was doing now, or whether she had forgotten her master!
In the main room of the Su Mansion, Yun Xue did not go to the living room to reply immediately. Instead, she lowered her head and said to Mrs. Su, that is, Ou Kui: "Madam, I asked my servant to tell the master that she is still in the boudoir, so it is not convenient to talk to her." Meet the foreigner."
Ou Kui sat back on the fire bed. After hearing these words, the frown between her brows slowly relaxed, and a smile gradually appeared in her eyes.
"Well, in a quarter of an hour, you can go back to the main room and say this to the master. Remember to be smart when you speak."
"yes!"
As soon as Yun Xue left, Ou Kui looked at the woman in her forties next to her, with her face always pale, and said: "Qingmei, you are really right. Mingshan should have given up on Qin Muyang." thought."
The woman named Qingmei was nearly fifty years old. She was the woman Ou Kui rescued before she got married.
Ou Kui didn't know her specific life experience. He only knew that she lost her husband and son at a young age.
When he was first rescued, he was holding his dead son and fell on the roadside.
It was Ou Kui who saw pity and paid for her son to be buried. After that, Qingmei sold herself to stay with her, unwilling to marry again.
After Ou Kui got married, she was not pregnant for a long time. She wanted to persuade her master Su, Su Yuanshui, to take a concubine, but it was Qingmei who persuaded her not to have such thoughts.
If Su Yuanshui treats her wholeheartedly, then she shouldn't push him away.
He also said that a man cannot withstand the test. Even if he loves her now, if she pushes him out with her own hands, it will be difficult for her to not hold grudges in her heart in the future.
First, when he has his own heir, his heart will slowly become attached to him.
Second, if you leave the mother and leave the son, it is a sin.
Third, if the mother leaves the child behind, even if she feels it is okay at first, over time, there will inevitably be a gap in her heart.
This would be of no benefit to her, the woman, or the child.
It was precisely because of Qingmei's persuasion and the kindness of her mother-in-law that Ou Kui no longer had any other thoughts.
Later, when she became pregnant with Mingshan, it was Qingmei who took care of the delivery.
After Mingshan was born, Qingmei also brought her up with her own hands.
It can be said that Mingshan's current character is deeply influenced by Qingmei.
When Qingmei heard Ou Kui's words, her eyebrows also showed a smile, "Madam, you should be relieved now, right?"
Ou Kui nodded: "Well! Outsiders say that the Qin family is good, but the Qin family is not suitable for my family Mingshan. Qin Muyang is not a good match for Mingshan!"
Although her Su Mansion is not as good as the Qin family, it can still be regarded as a first-class wealthy businessman's mansion.
People in other mansions more or less have concubines and maidens in their backyards.
There was no such mess in her house.
Apart from her mother-in-law, who died of illness a few years ago, she and Mingshan were the only serious mistresses.
She has been favored by her master for most of her life, so she naturally hopes that her Mingshan will be like this when she gets married in the future.
However, it is simply impossible for Qin Mansion.
If her Mingshan marries Qin Muyang, she will either be devastated by men in the future, or live a life of frivolity.
No matter which outcome it was, she didn't want to see it.
Perhaps sensing her worries, Qingmei advised her to just relax, explaining that Shan was not an emotional person.
She was still worried at first, but now it seems that she is worrying too much.
When it comes to understanding Mingshan, as a mother, she is not as good as Qingmei.
But it's normal. Mingshan was brought up by Qingmei herself, so it's not an exaggeration to say that she is Qingmei's daughter.

In the main hall of the Su Mansion, Qin Muyang sat there absent-mindedly, looking towards the door from time to time.
He didn't know how many cups of tea he drank. When he almost couldn't hold it in anymore and wanted to relieve himself, someone outside the door responded.
"Master, the young lady is very busy at the end of the year and has no time at all. Just now, the slave girl was outside the study and waited for a long time before she saw the young lady announcing her entry. When she found out why the slave girl came, she said that she was a girl waiting to be married. , it is inconvenient to see my foreign husband."
Qin Muyang's face turned pale when he heard this. He didn't expect that after waiting for a long time, he would get such a light word.
He guessed that Mingshan was angry, angry that he had promised well before, so he turned around and his mother gave him the girl herself.
But there was nothing he could do. His mother had already threatened her with death. If he still insisted on not accepting her and just watched his mother die, that would be a great act of unfilial piety.
Thinking like this, he looked at Su Yuanshui expectantly: "Uncle Su, Mingshan must have misunderstood me. It was clear that she was fine when she came back from outside before. It's impossible for her to die in just half a month. It's changed. I haven't touched the girl my mother gave me. I also promised Mingshan that I would never touch it. Uncle Su, I..."
