Chapter 1129 The Value of Being a Concubine

"So there are rumors that you want to squeeze out Bai Kou and replace it, it seems to be true?" Gu Yun looked at his hands casually, um, the nails should be trimmed.

"Gu Shizi misunderstood. I never meant it that way. The Jiang family in Xinzhou can't afford it. I just want to be a noble concubine, and I hope Gu Shizi will be perfect."

Gu Yun narrowed his eyes suddenly. He remembered that when he was talking about Jiang Yueyi with Bai Kou, Bai Kou had said that she would not share personal items, but at that time, she was in her arms, and she was only thinking about eating sweets, so how could she think about other things? , Looking at it now, the root of that sentence is here.

Bai Kou knew that Jiang Yueyi's purpose was to be a concubine, and Bao Buqi had been harassed by Miss Jiang for a long time with various reasons, but Bai Kou didn't say a word!
Because taking a concubine is a man's business, and women have no right to express their opinions!

What a virtuous daughter-in-law, she hasn't been bullied before, but she was bullied by outsiders first!
Bai Kou was wronged!

For a moment, Gu Yun's mind was filled with Bai Kou's pouting and displeased face, and Jiang Yueyi in front of him felt more and more disgusting about her appearance, and he didn't care about Bai Kou's betrayal of his whereabouts to Jiang Yueyi.

If it wasn't for Bai Kou being so annoying, how could such a clever baby make such a bad move?People are still in prison!Busy enough with the serious business of the day, what's the point of being distracted by such nonsense!

The more he thought about it, the more unhappy he felt, the anger in Gu Yun's heart was burning hotter and hotter.

"I don't need a concubine's room."

"Who in a wealthy family doesn't have wives and concubines in groups? There are not many concubines with beautiful women, and men are too embarrassed to say hello when they go out."

"Can't understand human language? Then let me say it again, I don't take concubines."

"Gu Shizi, I came all the way from Xinzhou, I only have this tiny wish, please grant me a heart of love."

"Fulfill your love? That is, you have benefited from me, but what is the benefit to me in turn?"

"My Jiang family is a salt merchant."

"Your family is already going downhill, and Xinzhou is not the only salt merchant of your Jiang family. The Wei family and the Wang family are the big salt merchants competing for the first place. Although your Jiang family used to be ranked third, there is a gap between those two. The same gap, and now there is a scandal of an insider selling confidential information. The Lu family and the Hong family who were originally ranked below your Jiang family have surpassed them. Now your Jiang family is ranked fifth, and it is about to fall to sixth. , there are only a few famous salt merchants in the small Xinzhou, and your family is getting worse and worse, why should I take you as a concubine?"

Gu Yun mercilessly presented the not-so-optimistic facts that Jiang Yueyi had to face.

The blood on Jiang Yueyi's face faded instantly, her eyes were wide open, and her red lips trembled slightly.

"You know all about it?!"

"All the salt merchants in the capital are gathered together. I don't need to inquire about the current situation of your Jiang family in Xinzhou. Someone took the initiative to put it on my desk. I have been treating you coldly in the hope that you will take care of yourself. I didn't expect you to keep ignoring it again and again. Anyway."

"Gu Shizi is right." Jiang Yueyi took a deep breath, suppressed the turbulent emotions forcibly, bit the tip of her tongue and slowly calmed down, "The situation of my Jiang family is indeed getting worse and worse. As the eldest daughter, I have to do whatever it takes To save the family business, I became a concubine voluntarily. I just want to get Gu Shizi's protection and protect my Jiang family through difficulties. As long as I get the salt ticket next year, my Jiang family will definitely be able to regain my original seat in five years. Whatever your son needs, our Jiang family can meet it."

"That is to say, if I take you as a concubine, your family will benefit immediately, but I have to wait five years later? Is your family doing business like this? Your Jiang family thinks that I am the number one scholar, or is Bai always Silly?"

"Gu Shizi, we didn't mean that! Please don't misunderstand!"

"I didn't misunderstand. I understand what you mean very well. I don't have a marriage contract now. You will be the first woman in my inner house when you come in to be a concubine. When I marry Bai Kou in the future, she will always give you a little bit of face, so you are alone." The concubine's room has a status in front of the young lady just because of the advanced door, right?"

"I can wait! I can wait for Mr. Bai to enter the door! I don't ask for the first one! I only ask for a marriage contract, Gu Shizi, please!"

"It's a good idea. Bai Kou and I haven't made a marriage contract yet, and you still want to get ahead of her? Where do you have the confidence to think that I will throw Bai Kou aside and let you get ahead of everything? From head to toe, what do you have?" The advantages are worth my putting aside Bai Kou and putting you first?"

"Gu Shizi, I'm indeed not as smart and capable as Boss Bai. I don't have a long body, and all I can give you is my body. I think, Boss Bai has suffered for several years when he was young, so it's better for me to pamper you when I was young. There are traces of hard work on her face. I am different from her. Although my Jiang family's family background has declined, I am still recognized as the number one beauty in Xinzhou. Gu Shizi is the number one scholar this year. Isn't it a good story? ?”

"Scholar and beautiful woman? You can say that, so your essential purpose is to squeeze Bai Kou away and replace her. The backup plan is to stay as a concubine, right?"

"No! I don't! I really want to marry the prince as a concubine!"

"Then what do you mean by talented scholars and beautiful ladies? What qualifications does a concubine have to stand shoulder to shoulder with her husband?"

"I was talking too fast, I was wrong! I didn't mean it!"

"Jiang Yueyi, you have been in the capital for so long, and you still haven't turned your head around. You thought this huge capital city was your hometown, Xinzhou? There are many beauties in the capital that are prettier than you. Show off your Xinzhou in front of me. What's the use of being the number one beauty? When I came from the country, I never saw a beauty?"

"Gu Shizi is naturally well-informed."

"You are right. There are so many beauties in the capital, why should I take you as my concubine instead of picking someone else?"

"I... my family..."

"Your home is already dead."

"I..." Jiang Yueyi was really sweating profusely at this moment, she suddenly realized that she really didn't have a trick to determine the outcome, and her self-confidence began to gradually weaken.

"Your family background can't impress me, and you're not the most beautiful woman in the capital. Your two most proud strengths are like paper, and they can be broken if you poke them. If you don't leave, what are you doing here?"

"Gu Shizi, am I really so useless in your eyes?"

"Marry a wife, marry a virtuous man, take a concubine and take sex with you. You are not one of the most beautiful women in the capital. You don't even have the basic qualifications to be a concubine. Why should I support you?"

"But I am the eldest daughter after all. I don't believe that there is any family in the capital that would let the eldest daughter marry Gu Shizi as a concubine."

"You have been reduced to being a concubine to save the family crisis, so what about the eldest daughter? Isn't it great? When your Jiang family was prosperous, you, the eldest daughter, was of great value. Now your family is not good, obviously? Understand? What advantages do you have as the eldest daughter? A man who is willing to marry you is not capable of helping your family through difficulties, but a man who can help, such as me, does not care about you as a concubine. Tell yourself Look, what are you worth?"

Gu Yun calmed down, tapped the table with his fingers rhythmically, and stared at Jiang Yueyi who was already at a loss in front of him.
