Concubine, she rises step by step

Chapter 182 Jin Hai
Jin Mansion.

When he came, Huo Jiheng was still worried about whether it would be a burden to Jin Hai. However, after seeing the prosperity of Jin Mansion and the size of the house, Huo Jiheng looked at Shengyi with pride and sighed: "You are right, I really dug up treasures." Got it!"

Obviously, the housekeeper of Jin Mansion must have been waiting at the door for a long time. When he saw someone stopping at the door, he quickly sent his servant to invite the young master.

"Are you Mr. Wang or Mrs. Wang?" the housekeeper asked with a smile.

Huo Jiheng nodded slightly, "Yes."

The housekeeper hurriedly said: "We are waiting for you. My eldest young master has told me many times that I must not neglect you. Hurry! Please come inside!"

Why shouldn't such enthusiasm make people happy? Shengyi itself also likes to be lively. Seeing the attention paid to it by others, I feel that my previous doubts have become more worrying.

Huo Jiheng stretched out his hand to hold Sheng Yi and walked towards Jin Mansion.

Just in time, he met Jin Hai who was running to greet Huo Jiheng. Immediately, Jin Hai said happily: "Brother Wang! You are here! The food and wine are all ready and waiting for you!"

Huo Jiheng had never seen such a hospitable little brother before, so he had no choice but to quicken his long legs and walk in, "Please! Please!"

When I was outside, I only saw how big the house was. When I got inside, I saw what a wealthy family was.There are calligraphy words everywhere, even the pool in the courtyard and the pavilion for resting next to it are quite unique and different from ordinary decorations.

"This yard is quite beautiful." Sheng Yi couldn't help but praise.

Huo Jiheng was also full of appreciation, "Indeed, it's very good!"

Jin Hai was very happy now, "Brother Wang and sister-in-law have really praised Jin Hai with such compliments. They are all just poor work. Just like it, you two."

Sheng Yi was stunned, "Sister-in-law?"

Jin Hai said warmly: "Brother Wang, is it appropriate to call me sister-in-law?"

Huo Jiheng's eyes were filled with joy, "That's perfect!"

Sheng Yi's face turned red, her heart pounded, and her mood improved. Not everyone could afford this sister-in-law.

After sitting down, Jin Hai directly ordered: "Ying'er! Serve the food!"

The woman on one side nodded slightly, "Yes."

Just this sound made Huo Jiheng and Sheng Yi look at him differently.

The voice is so light and soft, like a feather, blowing past my face, making me feel relaxed.

Sheng Yi couldn't help but said to Jin Hai: "You, the maid, are also a rare beauty."

Huo Jiheng walked in without squinting. Hearing Sheng Yi's words, he said softly: "You are not as good-looking as you."

Jin Hai understood and said: "Hurry! Brother Wang only loves his sister-in-law. How rare this is!"

Sheng Yi glanced at Huo Jiheng and sat down with a sweet smile.

Then, Jin Hai looked at Sheng Yi and explained: "Ying'er said she was a maid, but she is actually similar to my sister. She was abducted and sold to Yuzhou when she was a child. My father saw how pitiful she was, so he bought her back. I don't have any brothers or sisters either. , so I asked Ying'er to take care of her in reading, writing, etc. She is also talented, she can read many books very well, and she can also write poems and paintings, so she kept her in the house."

Sheng Yi was even more surprised by the Jin family's family tradition, and slowly praised: "It seems that the Jin family is also a philanthropic family!"

Huo Jiheng also nodded and said: "It's not easy to have such magnanimity and character!"

Jin Hai said humbly: "My father often taught me that wealth can be put second. If you want to continue the spirit of the Jin family, you must repay kindness and have kind thoughts."

Huo Jiheng took a sip of tea and said, "Well, not bad! I wonder if Brother Jin has ever considered taking the imperial examination and serving the imperial court?"

Sheng Yi's eyes flashed, this boss is really dedicated and never forgets to recruit talents for himself wherever he goes.

Jin Hai said very sincerely: "I have also considered it. Before, due to some reasons, I was not sure about it. Now, I really have this idea."

Huo Jiheng nodded slightly, "If you become an official in the court, a great future will be just around the corner!"

The Jinhai authorities raised their glasses and said, "With Brother Wang's good words, I hope Jinhai can live up to expectations!"

After a while, Ying'er came over with several maids to serve her.When he leaned forward to pour water for Huo Jiheng, Huo Jiheng could even smell the fragrance of Ying'er.

Shengyi saw everything in his eyes, with a smile on his face, looking away from the corner of his eyes, holding a tea cup, polite and decent.

Huo Jiheng took a moment to look at Sheng Yi and realized that this woman seemed to have eaten wrongly.

"Yinger, is that right?" Huo Jiheng turned sideways and called.

Ying'er smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Wang."

"My wife has been very tired recently, please help Miss Ying'er take care of her more today."

At the end of his words, Huo Jiheng's eyes also fell on Sheng Yi.

Sheng Yi was startled for a moment, then understood what Huo Jiheng meant and said politely, "I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Ying'er."

Jin Hai couldn't help but sigh again: "Sister-in-law, there are not many men like Brother Wang. Where did you find him?"

Sheng Yi smiled and said nothing.

This meal, shared by several people, was harmonious and relaxing.

It wasn't until it was getting late that Shenyi ended the dinner on the pretext that she needed a rest.

Although Jin Hai tried his best to stay, Huo Jiheng said that he had arranged a place to stay and went back with good intentions.

Under the moonlight, she kindly said softly: "I was thinking that Mr. Jin said that there was good wine, and I didn't want to disturb the emperor. Why are you coming out too?"

Huo Jiheng looked up at the half-circle moonlight and whispered: "Between men, it is not necessary to drink some wine and talk nonsense. It's okay not to drink."

The kindness was full of jealousy: "Your Majesty, do you think that Ying'er is good?"

Huo Jiheng pretended not to understand: "What's good?"

"You did it on purpose!" Looking at Huo Jiheng's eyes, Sheng Yi felt like a little white rabbit in the arms of a big bad wolf.

Huo Jiheng said leisurely: "The world is so big that there are countless beauties. Can I include them all in the harem?"

After all, he is the emperor. Even if he has three thousand concubines, he cannot show any displeasure with his kindness. A little coquettishness and a little jealousy are also privileges allowed by Huo Jiheng, but he cannot ignore the importance.

"I think this Ying'er is much better than those women who only know rouge and vulgar powder!" This sentence is sincere.

Huo Jiheng stretched out his hand and gently held Sheng Yi, "Ms. Concubine Sheng, go back, it's time to rest..."

Also walking quickly under the moonlight was Jin Hai.

At this moment, Jin Hai was wearing a black cloak, and his face was different from the sparse and elegant solemn look during the day.

"Old Song, go to another courtyard!"

The carriage traveled for a long time. Along the way, Old Song carefully changed the route several times before stopping at a house surrounded by flowers and plants.

"Knock, knock, knock!" Old Song knocked on the door.

After a long time, a low voice came from inside, "Who is it?"

Jin Hai took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "It's me!"

Then, the door creaked open.

"Young Master, please come in!" The maid quickly closed the door after Jin Hai entered.

On this day, the owner of the other courtyard was waiting for news about Jin Hai...
