Pointing to Tang Luoyu's figure, he stroked his mustache and asked, "Is this woman Master Xue's wife?"

Baoqin followed his fingers and looked over, just in time to see Tang Luoyu's red figure flashing briskly past the gate of the courtyard, then looked up at Cen Ju, saw his serious face, and felt a little displeased, "Exactly."

If you are not happy, you are not happy, because he is You Nanhou's confidant, he still retains some courtesy while holding the piano.

"I heard that the Tang family is not part of the imperial court." Cen Ju twitched his brows, "Master Xue is a descendant of the Marquis, how did he meet this woman? How did he marry her?"

Seeing that the visitor was not kind, the expression on Baoqin's face was a little uneasy.

She is the eldest maid in the house, so she naturally has a lot of powers of discipline, how can a new gentleman poke his young lady's spine like this behind her back?
"My master and wife are naturally married because of mutual affection." She followed the two for a long time, and the word "my family" easily classified Cen Ju as an outsider. It's a good story, if Mr. Cen really understands the master, he should have kept these words in his heart long ago, so he doesn't need to ask a maid like me."

Baoqin speaks slickly. Although Cen Ju is well-educated, he can't open his mouth at this time, and he can't gain the upper hand in his tongue, so his emotions show on his face.

His face was gloomy, but he still couldn't help asking: "Did Mr. Xue ever mention that he wants to take a concubine?"

These words were in the middle of Baoqin's minefield, she was upset, she didn't care about the many etiquettes, her face was drawn, her eyes were gloomy, and she almost tore her face when she spoke.

"What exactly is Mr. Cen's intention? I just arrived at the mansion yesterday, and today I want to let the master take a concubine. Could it be that I can't see that the master's family is harmonious and happy? Or is it that my young lady is not good enough for the master?"

She threw away the big scissors in her hand, frowned, and looked at Cen Ju coldly.

Seeing that the other party was really angry, Cen Ju had no choice but to put aside his airs and salute and apologize, "Miss Baoqin misunderstood, I saw that the mansion is busy with affairs, and Madam is still busy as the main room, so I asked a question out of concern. "

He didn't give him any face while holding the piano, so he squinted at him, picked up the scissors, and snorted disgustedly, "Pedantic."

Then, without giving Cen Ju a chance to speak, he turned his head and left.

Seeing that the other party didn't give him a good face, Cen Ju had no choice but to give up, hesitated for a while, and then walked to Xue Lince's study.

At this time, the sky gradually became clearer, the candles in Xue Lince's study were also extinguished, and the front door was wide open, so you could see him busily packing his books without entering the room.

When Cen Ju walked to the door, he became submissive and humble before entering the room, and his attitude when he was talking about Tang Luoyu just now was completely different.

"Lord Xue," he bowed at the door, "I have something to discuss with you, Mr. Cen."

Xue Lince turned his head when he heard the sound, and welcomed him into the house, "But it's about going south?"

"No," Cen Ju shook his head, his face gradually turned a bit distressed, "it's Madam's business."

Xue Lince's hands paused, a strange look flashed across his dark eyes, and the smile faded from his face, "What's wrong with Luo Yu?"

Cen Ju got up and looked around at the door of the house. After confirming that there was no one there, he subconsciously lowered his voice, but he didn't know that these actions had already made Xue Lince feel uncomfortable.

"Does your lord know that the Tang family is not part of the imperial court?" Cen Ju frowned, "And you know that Tang Luoyu is just the daughter of a mere businessman? Why did you marry her?"

The smile on Xue Lince's face completely faded away, replaced by a cold and solemn look wrapped in a cold wind, and he also brought a sense of majesty when he spoke, "What does Mr. Cen mean?"

Cen Ju's eyes dimmed, "My lord may not like what Cen said later."

Xue Lince pursed his thin lips into a line, and threw the book in his hand together with a "snap", "Since Mr. Cen knows that I don't like to listen, then don't talk about it. If you want to go south with me, you should go back now." It is better to pack things, not to inquire about the private affairs of the mansion as soon as you arrive at the mansion."

Hearing the words, Cen Ju was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and showed some distressed expression, "It seems that my lord really dotes on that merchant's daughter, no wonder even her maids are so rude."

Xue Lince frowned, his eyes darkened a bit, "I don't like to hear Mr. Cen's words. Luo Yu is my wife who is currently married to a matchmaker. She has been by my side these days. We are also in love with each other when we get married. Yue, even after marriage, you treat each other like a guest, and when Mr. Cen first came to the mansion, he only talked about the daughters of merchants, is he looking down on the people in this mansion?"

"My lord," Cen Ju said in that earnest tone again, with a serious face, "Cen is also thinking of your lord. Your lord is now the magistrate of Yuedong, and he has been promoted as the general of Zhenbei in an exceptional way. If he returns safely, then Even if you have a bright future, why do you want to get married with the daughter of a merchant? In my opinion, you should choose another good match."

"Nonsense!" Xue Lince got angry, and closed the book in his hand with a snap, "Luo Yu is the wife of this mansion, and this manor swore to protect her well. She will be a couple for the rest of my life. Do you want me to divorce her?" her?"

Cen Ju was taken aback by Xue Lince's reaction, and the muscles on his face twitched, but he still bite the bullet and said: "If your lord really likes her, you can keep her forever, you just need to find a concubine with a good family background, and wait until later. Just straighten the concubine's room."

Xue Lince couldn't bear it anymore, "Is Mr. Cen's hand stretched too far?"

His eyes were sharp, his long eyebrows were tightly frowned, and there was an icy chill between his brows, and a few cold stars almost popped out of his eyes.

"This government only allows you to go with us because you are the confidant of the deceased father. If you don't want to go, you don't have to speak ill of my wife in front of this government. There is no room for talking in this government's eyes." people, and they don’t like outsiders taking care of their family affairs.”

After hearing these words, Cen Ju not only didn't feel that he was at fault, but his temples twitched, and his preaching momentum remained undiminished, and he stood up accordingly.

"So, my lord won't give up on Tang Luoyu?"

"Shut up," Xue Lince said in a fit of anger, not giving him any face, "how can you call my wife's name directly? If I hear you say no to her again, where will you go back and forth?" , this government cannot tolerate villains who sow discord."

"Everything about Cen is for the future of an adult, how can he be a villain?" Cen Ju's fingers hanging on the sides of his body were suddenly clenched, and a row of sweat oozes from his forehead, "Are you really determined to keep her? "

"Nonsense," Xue Lince was annoyed, "If you try to persuade me again, I will drive you out, go out."

"grown ups!"

Cen Ju took a step forward, Xue Lince took half a step back to distance himself from him, his face was full of displeasure, "Get out!"
