After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Shui Qing actually didn't like Ling Ce as a father very much.

After her first wife passed away, she married Xiao Qingmei in less than three months. She refused to comment on this. However, the two already had a child, and he was only one year younger than Ling Ran. No matter how she looked at it, she couldn't agree with it.

She looked at Ling Ce quietly, and out of gratitude for his kindness in bringing troops to help, she did not refuse or agree immediately, but was extremely polite: "Governor Ling, you are so polite. If you have anything to do, just give me your instructions."

Ling Ce was not Bai Manshan and Li Huyu, the latter two were friends and sisters with her, but Ling Ce was just Ling Ran's father and the second-rank governor.

Ling Ce didn't understand Shui Qing's answer.

She was treating him like a governor and an official. He could bring up business matters and she would do whatever she could. As for private matters, she had to be selective.

But he came only for private matters.

He looked at Shui Qing's guarded and polite expression, and talked about the past instead: "Rourou and I, Ran'er's stepmother, have known each other since childhood and have loved each other and have known each other for a long time;

My grandfather encountered bandits when he was out, and happened to be rescued by Zhu Neng, my father-in-law. In order to repay his kindness, my grandfather arranged for my marriage. I couldn't resist and had to marry my unfriendly mother. In fact, I felt painful inside. There is some resentment. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be separated from Rourou.

I only have Rourou in my heart, and I did neglect her after marriage, but I gave her the position of mistress and the power to run the house;

Rourou had to endure all the hardships for me and became a foreign wife. She was unhappy and waited until Ran'er's mother passed away before joining her. I gave all the respect and face I could to Ran'er's biological mother, but my biological son still didn't understand. What else could I do? How to do it? "

Shui Qing looked at Ling Ce's face full of pain, as if he was indeed enduring great pain and helplessness. She could only be angry and have ten thousand words of greeting.

What the hell! To repay a favor, repay the favor well. Jade from Hotan, crystal from the East China Sea, bloodstone from Changhua, pearls, antique calligraphy and paintings, or even simple and straightforward gold and silver, which is not repaying the favor?

Let’s see how Bai Manshan and Li Huyu repay her for saving Bai Ziqian’s life? Just give, give, give! Gold leaves, fish maws, clothing fabrics, and various gold and silver jewelry. Did she feel neglected? No, but the friendship was even better!

She snorted and couldn't bear it and asked: "What are you doing to those vain people? Why don't you just give more thanks? Is your grandfather repaying a favor or taking revenge?"

Repaying kindness is like this. If you want to take revenge, what can you do to the Zhu family? I'm afraid it's not that bad.

If you ask me, it's better to be an enemy. Maybe they don't particularly want to marry their daughter. "

The painful expression on Ling Ce's face froze, and he didn't know what to express for a moment.

In the past, some people blamed his grandfather for not deciding his marriage, but after all, he was his grandfather, the head of the Ling family, the one who carried forward the Ling family, and Zhu Neng saved his grandfather, not only his grandfather's savior, but also the Ling family's. The savior is just his marriage, what does the favor in return have to do with it.

They have never thought about repaying their kindness by getting married. Is this what the families really want? Maybe people don't think that the Ling family is particularly good, so good that even if they want to break up a marriage, they still want to marry into it.

But the grandfather has passed away many years ago, and the son still doesn't complain about his father's fault. What's more, it is the grandfather. As a grandson, he cannot be unfilial.

"Besides, you are a grown man and you have a life-or-death loved one. You are unable to resist and have to obey the orders of your elders to get married. You want Ling Ran's mother, a girl in a boudoir, to rebel against her parents?

What do you think? "Shui Qing really wanted to ask, "How big of a face do you have!" Finally, he changed the question to a more elegant way.

"But, I gave her the position of the main wife and the right to run the family, which were originally supposed to be for Rourou." The pained expression on Ling Ce's face disappeared and he explained eagerly.

How did it become his responsibility? He resisted, but failed.

But what Hu Shuiqing said made some sense, and the Zhu family might have objected to it, but even if her parents ordered a matchmaker, she as a woman couldn't compete...

Shui Qing became even more angry when he heard this, and he couldn't stop even after reaching this point. He simply stabbed him to the end and continued: "In your opinion, the principal wife and the power of the head of the family are for women. grace?

But if Ling Ranniang doesn't marry you and marries someone else, she won't be the principal wife? As far as I know, the Zhu family has not reached the point where it can no longer survive, and there is no need for their daughters to serve as concubines. "

Ling Ce shook his head. In fact, although his father-in-law was a military commander, he had great military achievements. Unless her daughter married the royal family, she could not be a concubine if she married anyone in the palace.

Back then, my grandfather proposed getting married, and my father-in-law also liked the Ling family's scholarly family style and his, so he nodded in agreement.

"Being in charge of the house means that it sounds nice. You get up early every day to hand out cards, check the accounts, and have full control over all major and minor matters at home and outside the home. Being in charge means worrying about hard work. It's okay for the husband and wife to work together, at least to make life better;

But my husband and I are not of the same mind, and there is 'true love' outside. Isn't this a burden? One is working every day, dealing with a lot of favors, serving the parents-in-law in the morning and evening, and setting rules... The other is just having fun with his sweetheart, living a small life in a closed yard. You said you would choose, which one would you choose? "Shui Qing asked back.

Ling Ce was shaken.

Rourou often said that for him, she could not give up her title as the principal wife, she could stay outside by herself, and she and his children could not enter the ancestral hall. He only saw Rourou's grievance. After listening to Hu Shuiqing's words today, it seemed that, He thinks that the gifts and face given to Zhu clan are not that good?

Not even a gift.

If it was not a gift to Zhu Clan, then wouldn't he have owed Zhu Clan all these years?

But, "Why didn't she say it? She must want and fancy the Ling family's family background, otherwise she wouldn't stay in the Ling family!"

Shui Qing was furious after hearing this: "Don't you know that a woman has no family after she gets married? If she doesn't submit to the Ling family, where can she go? What's more, she already has a child."

There are many parents in China who disagree with their daughters' divorce and think it is a shame, let alone here!

Ling Ce is not naive and doesn't understand, he just doesn't care and keeps making excuses for him and that Qingmei. After all, it is difficult to admit one's own mistakes, but it is easy to blame others and make it all their fault!

The forced marriage was due to his grandfather, the inability to resist was due to his filial piety, and then there was the problem of Ling Ran's own mother, who shouldn't have married him.

However, he and Xiao Qingmei were two hard-luck lovers. They were forced to separate from each other in the past, and they could only achieve enlightenment after the death of their main wife.

No wonder Ling Ran despises his second-grade father and would rather escape with nothing. She would also despise him!

This is a man who has no sense of responsibility and responsibility, but he is just in a high position.
