Doting on concubines and destroying wives? I don’t want to be the mistress of the Hou clan anymore.

Chapter 17 Avoiding Disaster
Lin Miaofu smiled and said: "This is not a matter that is on the table, is it worth mentioning?"

She was also ignorant when she was a child. She was not allowed to go out and show herself in public, so she could only learn things at home. At that time, just to anger her parents, and because she had some talent in painting, she invited an expert to teach her.

It's just that I learned a little bit about it, but then I lost interest and stopped studying.

Unexpectedly, I still have a chance to use it now.

Jiang Huai himself is not a righteous person, so he doesn't have much thought about this. He only thinks that Lin Miaofu is smart and knows a lot, but it is a pity that she is a woman.

If he is a man, he is also a wise master. If he devotes himself to him, he can get protection.

After the last process is completed, the whole painting looks simple and textured.

If Jiang Huai hadn't read it from beginning to end, he would probably have thought it was an ancient painting.

"It's just that this is a fake after all. Whether it can succeed or not depends on luck."

"Whether it succeeds or not, I will remember this kindness. Thank you madam." Jiang Huai took the scroll and left.

Lin Miaofu was unable to come forward for the rest, so she could only wish him well.

After all, in her last life, Lin Miaofu didn't know much about Jiang Huai's affairs, nor did she know how he solved the matter. As for the Wen sisters, she didn't even know what happened to them.

In this life, after all, he met Jiang Huai and changed some of his destiny.

Therefore, Lin Miaofu was very concerned about Jianghuai's affairs, because she was afraid that something would happen and innocent people would die tragically for no reason.

Although she wanted to save herself, she didn't want to bear the burden of being killed for her own reasons.

After getting up and stretching her muscles, Lin Miaofu said to herself: "I haven't painted for a long time, and my hands are a little raw. I will have to get better at this skill in the future. If I encounter this situation again, I won't waste so much time." .”

With Lin Miaofu's family wealth, she didn't even bother to sell fake paintings. She ate some casually and prepared to go home.

Early in the morning, Gu Zhao took Chen Jue to visit the farm outside the city, mainly to let Chen Jue relax and remind him to change his behavior.

There was also something big happening in the capital, so he came out in advance to avoid it.

The peace envoy from Beirong who had just arrived was assassinated. I couldn't even imagine how big a disturbance this would cause. I was afraid that the whole city was now searching for the prisoner.

Before the conversation even started, Jiang Feng arrived.

"Your Majesty, little Marquis." Jiang Feng clasped his fists in salute to the two people, and then whispered a few words in Gu Zhao's ear.

Gu Zhao followed his uncle to the battlefield when he was eleven or twelve years old. His martial arts skills were honed by his uncle, and he had the resoluteness of a soldier.

"You said that when Jiang Huai left the Jinlou, there was an extra painting? Could it be a picture of a night tour of gods?"

Jiang Feng said: "My subordinate has never seen that picture, but seeing that his expression has recovered a lot, I think it's probably true."

"But that picture is clearly in my uncle's hands, why does this woman have it?"

Jiang Feng didn't know either.

It was when he found out that something fishy happened that he rushed to report it.

"You work harder and rush back, bring more people to watch Jiang Huai, and help him rescue the two women tomorrow." Gu Zhao said: "This matter is getting more and more interesting."

"I won't go there in a few days. I'll help if I can with Jianghuai. After all, I owe him a favor." Gu Zhao glanced at Jiang Feng: "You still have to record his abilities."

After Jiang Feng left, Chen Jue scratched his head and said, "Brother Qianjun, what are you talking about?"

"It's nothing serious. An old friend of my uncle's is in some trouble. He asked me to help him look after it in the capital."

"Let's talk about you first."

Chen Jue's head was spinning when he heard this, and he shrank his neck and pretended not to hear.

In the Hou's mansion, the lights were brightly lit, and the housekeeper was waiting at the door.

Lin Miaofu frowned, feeling that something was fishy. "Xiao Lian, I remembered that you should go to Jinlou to wait for Jiang Huai's letter and come back tomorrow."

Lin Miaofu ordered softly, and Xiaolian turned around and returned to the Jinlou without doubting that he was there.

The housekeeper frowned, but arranged for someone to stop him.

After all, Lin Miaofu was still looking at him.

"Why is Uncle Fu standing here in person, but who are you waiting for?"

"On the order of the Marquis, I am here to welcome Madam at the door." Butler Fu Bo bowed to Lin Miaofu and said very respectfully: "The Marquis has been waiting for you in the upper room all day."

"What you said is a bit exaggerated." Lin Miaofu said in a nonchalant manner: "Since Aunt Wan came in, is there still room for me in this house?"

"My upper room is as cold as an ice cellar. How could the Marquis deign to wait for me there? Uncle Fu, please don't say it's a joke."

Perhaps Lin Miaofu had used money readily enough to help fill the vacancies in the Hou Mansion, and also used her own money to buy property for the Hou Mansion, which won the steward's approval.

So after learning about Lin Miaofu's situation, he felt very sympathetic to Lin Miaofu.

"What are you talking about, Madam? You will always be the wife of our Marquis Mansion."

"It's just a false name."

Lin Miaofu was too lazy to continue this topic.

If she said too much, it would sound like she was complaining that Liang Yuqi didn't favor her, which would be misunderstood.

When she returned to the courtyard, she saw Liang Yuqi sitting upright in the courtyard.

And the maids and slaves in her yard knelt on the ground.

Lin Miaofu immediately grimaced.

He walked in with a cold face and didn't show any courtesy when he saw Liang Yuqi. He sat directly opposite him: "Master Hou is so angry. He punishes my servants as soon as they come to my house. I don't know what mistake they have made." , you have to kneel for so long?”

"Of course they made a big mistake." Liang Yuqi's face was as cold as ice: "I asked them where you went, but no one in the room could answer. As a slave and a maid, the master's whereabouts Even though they don’t know, they can still enjoy themselves peacefully, don’t you think they should be punished?”

"If you want to punish me, I will be the one to punish you. Why should the Marquis do it?"

Lin Miaofu pointed to the tea on the table and said to Hongye: "Go and make me a pot of tea. I won't drink what others have left."

"Aster, the tea is in the house, go get it for Hongye."

Red Leaf Aster is Lin Miaofu's personal maid. They know much better than Lin Miaofu about where things are placed in the house. After listening to Lin Miaofu's instructions, she looked at his face again and knew that if she didn't get up now, , Madam will definitely lose her temper.

Aster didn't dare to go against Lin Miaofu, so she got up and pulled Hongye by the way, got up and went to the house.

Liang Yuqi's eyes widened, his anger clearly showing on his face.

Lin Miaofu gave him a nonchalant look and continued: "The rest of you should do whatever you have to do. I'm giving you a monthly report, so I don't want you to be lazy."

"It's such a dark place, who is going to do the things in my courtyard?"

"You are quite lazy!"

"You!" Liang Yuqi was so angry that he didn't know what to say.

Those who were kneeling looked at Lin Miaofu and then at the Marquis, wondering whether they should get up.

Lin Miaofu threw the tea cup and said coldly: "I remember that your monthly money comes from me. If you don't know who the master is, don't work with me in the future."

Upon hearing this, those who were hesitant immediately stood up and went about their business.
