In the spring before the first wife's return to the hall

Chapter 5
Mrs. Jin had to remind her son that it was not that the Jin family was afraid of the Tan family, but that the cooperation between the two families would benefit both; when her son's official career was going smoothly, she could not let him chill the hearts of Tan's family.

Her heart ached slightly, but when she thought of those rumors, even though they were groundless, it was true that Mu Jin'er hadn't heard from Mu Jin'er for five years.
It's not that I'm sorry to Mu Jin'er.

When she thought this way, her eyes flickered involuntarily, and she also retracted the hands that supported Mu Jiner, avoiding Mu Jiner's gaze.

Jin Jingyi didn't follow his mother's gaze: "Mom, Jin'er is right; I want to understand what happened back then..."

He didn't want his mother to misunderstand him. Of course, he had to ask clearly about what happened back then. If Jin'er had really eloped with someone—he didn't know how to do it; but if Jin'er hadn't eloped with someone, this was Jin'er's home.

Mrs. Jin Tai shook her head: "If the person is not Jin'er, how can we find out what happened back then?"

Mu Jin'er had already stood up and looked at Mrs. Jin Tai calmly: "Do you want to go to the government, or do you want to invite my father and younger brother to come and identify?"

If people don't give her face, she doesn't have to post it, right?Mrs. Jin's behavior is very clear, she is going to choose another daughter-in-law instead of her, Mu Jin'er.

Because that daughter-in-law's natal family is powerful, but she, Mu Jin'er, has nothing.

Mrs. Jin Tai's eyes flashed unhappiness, she was obviously very dissatisfied with Mu Jiner's words, and she was also a little unhappy with Mu Jiner's words: After all, she is a mother-in-law, so how could Mu Jiner be angry with herself?

It's been five years, and she can't even ask a question.

Not everyone can enter the gate of Jin's house. If someone who looks like Jin'er can't come in, the people in Jin's house should treat him like a daughter-in-law, right?
I want to give everyone an explanation, we can't let the people in the city see the jokes of the Jin Mansion; it is reasonable to ask a question - the old lady said to Mu Jin'er: "Our Jin'er's temper is not like this."

She was unhappy and her words were a bit thorny, not as gentle as before.

Mrs. Jin Tai looked at Mu Jin'er again while talking: Jin'er used to be an extremely filial child, serving tea and water in front of her, never complaining and always thinking of everything for her.

She still remembered that time when she was bedridden due to a serious illness, Jin'er stayed by her side day and night, not afraid of being tired or dirty: Cleaning up was not a big deal, since she couldn't take care of her own toilet, it was Jin'er who helped her clean up.

The girls all thought it was dirty, but Jin'er, who loves cleanliness, didn't utter a word; moreover, because her internal heat was too strong and her stools were dry, if Jin'er didn't apply medicine to her every day, she would give her little by little with her hands. Get it out, she's already dead by now, right?
She was confused when she was sick, she scolded Jin'er badly every day, and she didn't know how many times she had to use the crutches, but Jin'er never lost her smile to her, she would only comfort her softly, and would only change her ways Make her happy.

She never complained about being beaten, and even if her son felt sorry for her and wanted her to take a break, she refused; because she said she was worried about letting the maids take care of her as an old woman.

The person in front of her, with just one sentence, made Mrs. Tai really question: because Jin'er would never treat her like this.

Jin'er looked at Mrs. Tai and said indifferently: "It's been five years, do you know how I survived, do you know what kind of life I lived--if I was the same Jin'er as before, I would have died a long time ago Now, the bones have all turned into mud!"

Mrs. Tai still shook her head, ignored Jin'er's words, and patted her son's hand and sighed: "This temperament is really not Jin'er; my Jin'er is not like this."

But Jin Jingyi listened to Mu Jin'er's words: "Mom, Jin'er has been away for five years, it's impossible that she hasn't changed." He supported his mother and wanted to turn around: "Let's talk about something after we enter the house."

Mrs. Jin still shook her head, stubbornly refusing to move: "Jingyi, I know you always think that Jin'er is still alive, but how is it possible?"

Tan Qiuyin stepped forward and gently supported Mrs. Jin Tai's arm: "Let's talk about it in the mansion, mother-in-law."

Jin Jing glanced at her, because she could be regarded as a relief for him; if his mother just refused to let Mu Jiner enter the house, he really didn't know what to do.

Tan Qiuyin turned her face away and did not respond to him, but the resentment and grievance in those eyes were undoubtedly revealed through two crystal clear teardrops rolling down.

Jin Jingyi's heart twitched violently, and his eyes did not move for a while; he knew that he had ignored Tan Qiuyin, because he was so excited about Jin'er's return that he almost forgot that he had married another wife .

Mu Jin'er was not in a hurry to enter the mansion. Now that the gate of the mansion has been opened, people who should come and who should not come have appeared: What else is there to worry about?

She didn't believe that the people of the Jin family would not let her in. One must know that she was unwilling, let alone attracting more people, to make trouble in front of this gate, but how could the people of the Jin family be willing to lose face.

After all, you have to enter the mansion, so she doesn't want to enter in a hurry, in a hurry, or impatiently; she wants to enter in a reserved, invited, and extremely honorable way.

Not for herself but for the two children, if she doesn't argue today, she will kill the two children: the dignity of the child has a lot to do with the mother, especially when the child grows up and talks about marriage and takes over the family.

Whether it's the mother-in-law's coldness and doubts, or the husband's unreasonable suspicion and anger, they can't force her back.

"No hurry, tell me, mother-in-law, how can I prove that I am the Jin Mu family?!" She said lightly, "Can you let me enter the mansion through this gate?"

Tan Qiuyin suffocated slightly, but Mrs. Jin was a little surprised: it turns out that Jin'er is tough on the outside and weak on the inside, so she should ask Jing Yi for help at this time.

Why is Mu Jin'er making her own decisions now, and she really has to put on the appearance of confronting her?
Seeing the change in Mrs. Jin's eyes, Mu Jin'er stroked the hair beside her ear: "Mother-in-law can't get rid of her suspicions, so it's nothing if I just stay outside this door for a while; I'm not in a hurry to enter the house."

After she finished speaking, she patted the burden, and looked at the door beside her: "Is there a chair? Bring it here, I'm really tired." As soon as she finished speaking, she looked at Mrs. Jin Tai: "The chair in the Jin Mansion is in your hands. Before I am Jin Mushi, can I sit for a while?"

It wasn't that she was targeting the elderly on purpose, or that she didn't know how to write filial piety. She has credentials!
When Mu Jin'er married into the Jin Mansion, she did her best as a daughter-in-law, and she really didn't show any filial piety to her mother-in-law. She did everything she could and couldn't do, and in exchange for such a cold sentence today?

Even if there were rumors and suspicions, if the people in the Jin Mansion regarded Mu Jin'er as a relative, they wouldn't be so fussy after they met and didn't ask her a question—these years have been fine.

She is angry, so she doesn't mind letting everyone see her angry: "Also, Mrs. Tai, you said that I am not as temperamental as before. I don't know if it is an excuse, or you have to find a reason for yourself, and I can convince you Ignoring your own conscience?"

"Shut up, Jin'er!" Jin Jing was furious: "I still haven't apologized to my mother." He is a dutiful son, and he can't bear his wife talking to his mother like this.

Mrs. Jin Tai held her son's arm: "Jingyi, mother, I can't listen to such cruel words at my age, let alone someone using Jin'er's favor to stab my heart."

"If it was Jin'er, why would she talk to me like this; Jingyi, wake up." The old lady patted her son, tears streaming down her face: "Jin'er is no longer alive."

But Jin'er replied lightly: "Punishment? If you are not looking for a reason to explain yourself, why did you come to punish your heart?"

"You know best whether I am Jin'er, but you don't want to recognize me as your daughter-in-law, but you don't want to feel bad for your conscience, so you have to do everything possible to prove that I am a fake."

"If you drive me away like this, Jin's Mansion is still Jin's Mansion, you are still Mrs. Jin Tai, and the life of Jin's family will still be smooth and stable. There will be no twists and turns, and there will be no restlessness in the house."

"And if I enter the Jin Mansion, there will be no peace at home. How to arrange me is a headache, right? So it's better to just drive people away."

Mu Jin'er ignored Jin Jingyi's anger and finished speaking: "Mrs. Jin, even if you are old and dizzy, you don't care about it? You still remember when I took care of you when you were sick, and you remembered that you were blocked by phlegm and couldn't breathe, yes Did I suck it out for you mouth to mouth?"

Mrs. Jin's body trembled slightly, of course she hadn't forgotten the matter of sucking phlegm, and hearing such words, she was even more sure that the person in front of her was Mu Jin'er.

But the more serious it was, the more she couldn't let him in. She turned her face and closed her eyes: "Jingyi, are you going to allow a person of unknown origin to be so disrespectful to mother?"

As soon as Jin Jing looked at Mu Jin'er, many doubts flashed in his eyes: "Jin'er, why don't you ask your mother for your sins?" Jin'er really changed, and for a moment he almost thought that Mu Jin'er had changed.

But that face can't be wrong.

Tan Qiuyin sighed softly, stepped forward and bowed to Jin'er as a salute: "Let's go to the mansion to discuss anything; an old man is an old man after all..."

She didn't say much, but just looked up at Mu Jin'er.

She had already won, so what felt in her heart at this moment was pity; she didn't know if Mu Jin'er had really eloped with someone, but even if she didn't, she couldn't let Mu Jiner enter the house.

Nothing, just because she didn't do anything wrong, so she didn't want to become a concubine for no reason, and she didn't want to lose her husband and this family.

Mu Jin'er looked at Tan Qiuyin, narrowed her eyes and waited until she finished speaking and stood up before softly saying: "I want to salute after things are clarified, I really can't bear your salute without that cup of tea." .”
