The melon-eating system, everyone listens to my voice

Qin Rende's smile was particularly eye-catching among his sad colleagues, which was too much.

Some of the more angry ones had already clenched their fists and wanted to go up and hit that person in the face.

They didn't dare to do it openly, so they moved secretly to Qin Rende's side, pushed him to the left, and moved one step to the right. Qin Rende fell to the left and right like a rag doll, which looked very funny.

Moreover, several people were blocking Qin Rende, and others could not see the situation inside the encirclement at all. Qin Rende also had a handkerchief stuffed in his mouth, so he could only whimper.

Now it was Qin Rende's old face that turned the color of liver. He glared at the culprits in humiliation, his teeth chattering.

These officials also knew their limits. Seeing that Qin Rende no longer had that joking look on his face, they withdrew their hands one after another. Qin Rende's mouth was also freed and he was breathing heavily.

A colleague nearby said with a smile,

"Sir Qin, I saw that you seemed to be unwell, so I kindly helped you stretch your muscles. You're welcome. We have served in the same court for so many years, and I know who you are, so you really don't need to thank me."

The expression on the official's face was very kind, but the meaning he revealed was very meaningful.

Qin Rende endured and endured, got angry and angry again, and finally shook his sleeves and rolled his eyes in an inelegant manner. He was so angry that he didn't even want to say a perfunctory word.

The official's surname was Zhou. He had been at odds with Qin Rende in the past. He could not stand Qin Rende's hypocritical character, and the two of them had been fighting openly and secretly for more than 20 years.

Lord Zhou was very happy to see Qin Rende's frustrated side, but soon he couldn't laugh anymore.

[Host, I found him. He is Lord Zhou who is standing with Qin Rende more than ten meters to your left. He has a son, Zhou Li, who is twenty years old and has not yet married.

Lord Zhou and his wife were worried about Zhou Li's marriage, but recently Zhou Li secretly found a girl he liked without telling his parents, and promised the girl that he would only love her for the rest of his life.

After Lord Zhou leaves court today, Zhou Li will kneel down and tell Lord Zhou what he wants, asking Lord Zhou and Madam Zhou to agree to this marriage, because the woman Zhou Li likes is a maidservant.

When Lord Zhou heard that the girl his son liked was a maid, his face turned ugly and as dark as ink.

No wonder this guy always said he was not in a hurry to get married and didn't even look at the rich girl his wife found for him. It turns out he really wants to marry her.

Although Lord Zhou did not insist on Zhou Li marrying a noble lady, the future daughter-in-law of the Zhou family must at least be a housekeeper, not to mention being of equal status to the Zhou family.

It was not enough for a maid to be a roommate, let alone the identity of the young lady of the Zhou family.

Qin Rende was not afraid of the trouble, he whispered,

"Master Zhou, your son's heart is known to all, please don't be prejudiced.

When it comes to helping lovers, Mr. Zhou is the most considerate and thoughtful. It doesn't matter if his future daughter-in-law is a maid. After all, Mr. Zhou has his own abilities and doesn't need to rely on the power of his wife's family. "

Lord Zhou wanted to swear, he took the imperial examination three times but still failed to pass the exam, is this a real ability?

Qin Rende was definitely taking revenge, and Lord Zhou was not to be outdone, so he said,

"Master Qin's son has given you several grandchildren at such a young age. He is so filial!"

Qin Rende has two sons. One was born to his concubine, a courtesan. The son has not yet been recognized as a descendant of his family, but Qin Rende has also provided him with some resources.

That son was also quite capable. Although he did not have the talent for the imperial examinations, he was gifted in business and earned a considerable fortune for Qin Rende in a short period of time.

Of course, most of the money earned flowed into the Qin Mansion, and the one who benefited was Qin Liyi, the only son born to Qin Rende by Madam Qin. However, Qin Liyi did not grow up to be what Qin Rende expected.

He dared to go to a brothel at the age of fifteen, and had his first boy born to a brothel girl at the age of sixteen.

Qin Liyi was a sentimental person, but he attached great importance to his offspring.

Despite Qin Rende's objection, he took the child back to the Qin family to raise.

No matter whether they were prostitutes in brothels, concubines in the house, or daughters of common people, as long as they gave birth to children for Qin Liyi, he would bring them all back.

This matter caused some noise, and Lord Zhou's words were a mockery of Qin Rende's good son.

Qin Rende's head twitched. If it weren't for his wife, he would have kicked the rebellious son and his several illegitimate grandchildren out of the house long ago.

Seeing the ugly look on Qin Rende's face, Lord Zhou felt that he had saved some face and decided to go home and talk to his son properly. If that didn't work, he would beat him up and lock him up. In any case, he couldn't do such a ridiculous thing as marrying a maid.

The officials around were still listening carefully. It was not clear which family the maid belonged to, and they didn't mind listening to the relationship between the two.

Shen Zhao asked curiously, "Gua Gua, which family is this maid from? Tell me so that I can go and see her after the court session. Is she so beautiful that Zhou Li, a son of a noble family, would fall in love with her?"

Or is there some kind of life-saving grace or substitute relationship between these two people? 】

[Host, this maid is from Lord Ying's mansion, but she is not a real maid, she is a lady from a wealthy family.]

As soon as Guagua finished speaking, Lord Zhou's face immediately turned from gloomy to bright. It would be great if she wasn't a maid. She was a real daughter. They were a talented man and a beautiful woman. He would agree to this marriage when he returned.

Shen Zhao knew that this was definitely not that simple, so he asked,

[Guagua, what is the identity of this lady? ]

[She is the eldest daughter of Lord Ying’s mansion, Xu Qingruo.]

Lord Zhou was immediately surprised. His son was marrying up to his status as a young lady from the Bo family.

But Lord Zhou felt goose bumps all over his body, as if someone was staring at him?

Lord Zhou looked back in the direction of the thorny gaze and saw that it was the Minister of Revenue Jiang Youwen.

Jiang Youwen's gaze was not friendly at all, and the hatred in his eyes seemed as if he wanted to eat Lord Zhou!

Lord Zhou was puzzled. This was not a matter between the two of them, but a matter between his family and the Yingbo Mansion. Even if there was any dissatisfaction, it should be vented by Lord Yingbo.

As it happened, Lord Jiang was standing in front of Lord Zhou, so Lord Zhou asked directly,

"Jiang Youwen, what's wrong with you? If you look at me with such a reserved look, someone who doesn't know me would think I have offended you in some way."

An official who knew the news tried to suppress a smile, thinking that you haven't offended him, but your son may not be so sure, this is the case of the father paying for the son's debt!

Jiang Youwen only recalled what Guagua had said just now. The woman Zhou Li admired was the eldest daughter of Yingbo Mansion. But...

[Host, let me tell you, Xu Qingruo is already taken.

She had been married since she was young, and his wife was the eldest son of the Minister of Revenue, Jiang Qinglin.

The two families agreed to start discussing the marriage next month. As the future son-in-law of the Bo family, Jiang Qinglin would visit his future father-in-law and mother-in-law every New Year and other holidays.

Lord Zhou frowned. No wonder Jiang Youwen looked like that. It turned out that he felt that his son had stolen his daughter-in-law.

But Lord Zhou didn't think so. Xu Qingruo was already someone else's son, yet she was trying to seduce his son.

Even though Lord Zhou was disappointed with Zhou Li, he also felt sorry for him, so he blamed Xu Qingruo without a second thought.

But this is really Xu Qingruo's fault.

Guagua continued,

[However, Jiang Qinglin has an affair with Mingli, the cousin of Yingbo Mansion, and Jiang Qinglin has decided to confront Lord Jiang today, because Jiang Qinglin really likes Mingli and wants to marry her.

As a result, the God King had the intention, but Xiangnu had no dream.

Mingli just didn't want to see Xu Qingruo get married like that. She was jealous of Xu Qingruo and envied that she was a spoiled young lady who was loved by her father and mother, so she tried every means to hook up with Jiang Qinglin.

But the person Mingli really likes is Zhou Li, because Zhou Li once saved her life and she fell in love with him at first sight.

Originally, Zhou Li should not have been involved in the love-hate relationship between these three people, but Xu Qingruo discovered the dirty deeds between her fiancé and her cousin.

Xu Qingruo herself had some feelings for her fiancé, but was tragically betrayed.

Mingli also boasted to her many times in private, which made Xu Qingruo decide to retaliate.

Whatever Mingli values, she will make Mingli lose it.

If Xu Qing wanted to get close to Zhou Li, he would not have used his own identity and would have only used the maidservants of the Bo's Mansion.

By then, Mingli will lose to a "maid", which will be enough to hit Mingli.]

The minister's gaze shifted between Lord Ying, Lord Jiang, and Lord Zhou, all with meaningful expressions in his eyes.

The cousin is having an affair with her cousin's husband, the young lady is pretending to be a maid, the young master is asking to marry his fiancée's cousin. Your children are really extravagant because you fathers don't teach them well.

Tsk tsk tsk, this is such an shame for you!
