The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 7 He probably has forgotten it
Seeing that he was about to accuse her, Lin Mowan's smile faded a little bit, and her eyes were full of innocence and grievance, with a hint of coldness: "Father, do you mean to hide me in that place full of cockroaches and rats for the rest of my life?"
When these words came out, Jiang Wenqing's heart choked slightly, and his expression froze. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether she was showing weakness or demonstrating.
The man in front of him is not only Lin Mowan's adoptive father, but also her biological father. It's a pity that he loves his position as prime minister more than Lin Mowan and her tragically dead mother.
Three years ago, it was he who found Lin Mowan who was salvaged from a fishing boat. When he learned that she had lost part of her memory, he secretly brought her back and settled her down, saying that he would visit her every few days. However, three years had passed since then, and he didn't even know that she had been sold. If Lin Mowan hadn't come to him on her own initiative, he would probably have forgotten that he had a daughter like her.
He frowned, calmed himself, sighed softly, helpless but calmed down: "Didn't I tell you that it's only temporary? When the time is right, I will take you back home and recognize your ancestors. Why are you so anxious?"
Lin Mowan sneered without hesitation: "I've heard you say this seven or eight times when my mother was alive. Now that she's gone, you're too lazy to even change a word of your words to deceive me?"
Jiang Wenqing was slightly startled, as if he felt a trace of guilt for the first time in his life. He opened his lips several times, ready to say something, but the arrogance that had been extinguished could not be extinguished.
After all, he was just worried that Lin Mowan would reveal her identity and make Gongshu Tingyue unhappy, so he wanted her to pack up and leave. Lin Mowan was not in a hurry and just glanced at him quietly.
Just when Jiang Wenqing was so worried that he clenched his fists but couldn't find the words, there was another hurried knock on the door. Jiang Wenqing was startled and stood up from his chair abruptly, looking at the door with an extremely vigilant look.
Then, Yuzhi carefully pushed open the door and walked into the room quickly. Lin Mowan paused and turned to look. She saw a dignified nanny beside Yuzhi. Lin Mowan recognized her. She was the one beside Gongshu Tingyue, and her surname was Cen.
Yuzhi nodded slightly: "Miss, Lord Jiang, Madam asks Lord Jiang to come over."
The old lady bowed respectfully to Lin Mowan, who smiled and nodded in response. At this time, Jiang Wenqing did not speak, but his expression became more solemn.
Lin Mowan had no intention of getting entangled with him. If she really exposed her identity at this time, it would be disadvantageous to her. So, she thought for a moment, then pushed the tea bowl aside and sat up straight: "Since my father has important things to do, I won't keep you any longer."
As she spoke, she smiled gently and said to Aunt Cen beside her, "Father knows that I am weak, and he took time out today to see me, fearing that I might be feeling unwell. But to be honest, I am fine now, so you don't need to bother me."
Nanny Cen nodded, keeping a smile on her face, exchanged a few words with Lin Mowan, and then asked her to leave.
After sending the two out of the yard, Yuzhi entered the house excitedly. Lin Mowan was leaning on a chair drinking tea at this time. Seeing her excited look, Lin Mowan was puzzled, but before she could ask, Yuzhi couldn't help being excited and came to Lin Mowan: "Miss, guess what I saw just now?"
Lin Mowan glanced at Yuzhi, who had her hands on her knees, but did not say anything. Seeing that she was not in high spirits, Yuzhi was not discouraged, but continued to talk to herself: "I don't know who offended the eldest young master Jiang, and he was beaten. When he went out to accompany Madam Jiang to burn incense in the temple today, he was carried by the servants in the mansion."
Listening to Yuzhi's words, Lin Mowan's expression froze slightly, thinking about what Shen Weiyuan said last night. Somehow, even though she knew that Shen Weiyuan was not that kind of person, her first reaction was to think that this was done by someone sent by Shen Weiyuan.
Yuzhi was still laughing foolishly. Lin Mowan put down the tea bowl in her hand, lowered her eyes and looked at her. She raised her hand and gently touched her forehead: "Jiang Youxi is injured. Why are you so happy? Be careful that someone sees it and makes a fuss about it. We will be in big trouble."
Yuzhi came to her senses after hearing this and quickly suppressed her smile, but still said with some pride: "No matter which god did it, it was done well. Who told him to be so cunning all day long and be rude to the young lady in public. It's obvious that he doesn't take the young lady and the second master seriously." Even Jiang Wenqing and Gongshu Tingyue had to serve him carefully. Jiang Youxi was indeed a bit stupid, but Lin Mowan just kept silent and did not express her opinion.
Jiang Wenqing's stupidity is more beneficial than harmful to her. After all, who would want someone who is hostile to them to be too smart?
After a long silence, Lin Mowan stood up and walked to the bronze mirror to tidy up her hair. Yuzhi approached in confusion, "Are you going out, young lady?"
Lin Mowan sat in front of the mirror and used the ink on her hand to draw her eyebrows: "Since you say you're well, of course I still have to go and pay my respects to the old lady."
Come to think of it, it was Shen Weiyuan who sent someone to tell the old lady about her feeling unwell before, so she didn't care. But if she now clearly claimed that she was fine, but still refused to go, it would be a bit unreasonable if the Jiang family investigated it in detail.
Besides, she really needed to go to the old lady to inquire about Jiang Youxi's matter first. It would be best if she could find out who had taken action before her.
Lin Mowan has always been cautious in doing things. Yuzhi, who has followed her for three years, understands this. So she didn't say much. After Lin Mowan had packed up, she went to Hongbao Courtyard with her.
After entering the courtyard and walking to the door, I heard a commotion coming from inside: "Jiang Wenqing, look at what you have done. Your mistress is now causing trouble for me!"
"You! Stop being unreasonable!" This was Jiang Wenqing's voice.
Lin Mowan paused and for some unknown reason did not go in immediately. She thought Jiang Wenqing was called to the east wing, but she did not expect him to be here.
Before Lin Mowan could react, Gongshu Tingyue's strong and sarcastic voice could be heard again: "When we got married, we agreed that you would only have me for your whole life. Then you said you wanted to take a concubine, and I helped you take Tong Yuhua without hesitation. Now you are keeping someone else outside? And you let that bitch send me this thing to provoke me? You really made me proud!"
Then, there was a loud noise from inside. It was the sound of Jiang Wenqing slamming the table in anger. He said, "You, don't go too far! I want to marry Tong Yuhua? Who is that? Your cousin! You are not doing this for me, you are doing this for yourself!"
You know, after all these years of marriage, Jiang Wenqing has never yelled at her like this. Gongshu Tingyue's eyes were full of shock, which then turned into anger. She raised her hand and slapped Jiang Wenqing loudly, and he staggered unexpectedly.
Gongshu Tingyue gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "You like to keep them outside, right? It doesn't matter. I will help you get rid of as many as you keep!"
After she said that, she left, ignoring the shock in the old lady's and Jiang Wenqing's eyes. When she came out, Lin Mowan was standing outside the door, and the two of them happened to meet each other.
Gongshu Tingyue stopped somewhat unexpectedly. He looked aggressive and angry. His face flushed and his chest heaved violently. His eyes roamed back and forth on Lin Mowan, as if he wanted to torture her to death. He looked like he wanted to operate on Lin Mowan.
Finally, it was Aunt Cen who reminded her: "Madam, the maid who was taking care of the young master just now came to tell her that the young master refused to take medicine and his wound started to hurt again."
After she finished speaking, Gongshu Tingyue glanced at her with anger: "You are all useless! What are you doing? You can't even take care of one person!" After she finished speaking, Nanny Cen didn't dare to respond. Gongshu Tingyue just turned around and glared at Lin Mowan, then left quickly in anger.
