After being divorced, the concubine became the first lady

Chapter 5

Every weapon is forged from fine steel.

This is a world of cold weapons. Gunpowder is available, but it is strictly controlled and personal privacy is a serious crime.

Chu Jinjin wiped it carefully with a soft cloth.

With her strength in the last days and her rich experience in life and death battles, even if she cannot save her father, she should have no problem protecting herself.

When the lights were about to go out, Xia Feng opened the door angrily and came in: "Miss, the housekeeper of Xu Mansion is here, do you want me to kick him out?"

Chu Jinjin became interested: "No, let him in."

I'm just worried that I don't have the right opportunity to say anything.

It's okay to cheat for dowry. For Chu Jinjin, who is used to the apocalypse, food and safety are more important than anything else, but love is not.

The housekeeper from the Xu Mansion is not an ordinary housekeeper. The most senior one is usually polite to common people when they see him.

However, at this moment, his attitude was very low, and he came in and bowed respectfully.

People's momentum is mutual. If you retreat, he will advance, and if you advance, he will retreat.

Chu Jinjin burned the dowry angrily, burning thousands of taels in a short period of time. Everyone was shocked.

"At this point, I'm afraid someone will see me, so I won't be able to explain it to the concubine's sister." Chu Jinjin understood that if she took this step today, her reputation would be completely ruined, so she simply stopped pretending to be a lady, and sneered, " Let me guess the reason for your visit, well, the care brought by Mr. Xu Hou and his wife should also be the whispers brought by my husband who has not yet divorced."

The old housekeeper was extremely embarrassed.

He suddenly had a feeling that the Xu family might have made a mistake by doing this.

In his impression, Chu Jinjin was more vivid than ordinary rich ladies, like a bird on a branch or in a cage, but now, he felt that she was a bit like some kind of raptor.

A vengeful bird of prey!
The old housekeeper took out the letter sealed with fire lacquer and said respectfully: "My master said that if you encounter difficulties in Jinzhou, you can use this letter to visit the prefect."

Chu Jinjin didn't answer and said unhurriedly: "What else?"

The old butler was a little embarrassed to speak, and gritted his teeth: "The young master asked me to convey that he does not want you to put yourself in danger."

"You are still being affectionate at this time." Chu Jinjin sighed and shook her head. She paused for a moment and said thoughtfully, "There should be something happy in the Xu family soon."

The old housekeeper now saw sweat on his forehead and lowered his head deeply.

Chu Jinjin did not embarrass him and waved her hand: "Xia Feng, go to the Xu Mansion in my name and ask Xu Wenda when he will marry the new man."

The old housekeeper almost knelt down for her, no longer hesitating, and said in one breath: "Today, my wife will go to the palace to discuss marriage. The specific schedule is not known yet, but, the sooner the better."

Chu Jinjin took a break and committed suicide over there. One day of delay is a joke, and any further delay will damage the reputation of the imperial concubine. It is estimated that it will not exceed one month at most.

Chu Jinjin nodded: "Okay, if I come back by then, I will definitely come to ask for a wedding drink."

The butler was shocked: "You"

Chu Jinjin's eyes were like sharp knives: "Xia Feng, see you off."

Xu Mansion originally only wanted to covet her dowry, but now he realized it.

Dare to burn the dowry, he is not an ordinary madman, because he is afraid that she will come to make trouble.

But this is exactly Chu Jinjin’s plan!

Yes, she is so petty.

Departure time is the next morning.

All members of the Chu family went out to see him off. The old man, every room in the big house, the young master and the young ladies all came.

The entrance is packed with people.

All for fun.

Chu Yanru sat on pins and needles, feeling like a giant monkey. He didn't know how many times he looked into the courtyard. If there weren't so many people watching, he really wanted to rush in, pull people out and leave quickly. I really don’t understand what my grandfather thinks. Going to negotiate with Black Eagle Village is not about admiring the flowers.

Just because Chu Jinjin has her father's private seal?

Also, why are you making such a big fuss? Can't you just leave quietly through the back door?
When he finally saw Chu Jinjin, who had arrived for a long time, Chu Yan simply gritted his teeth.

Chu Jinjin wore an apricot-yellow jacket, which is popular this year. Under it was a white shirt and skirt that she was probably wearing for the first time. It looked like the apricot blossoms blooming in early spring. It made her skin look like snow, and there were all kinds of bright hairpins on her head.

Is this because it's not enough to attract the bandits' attention?
The crowd's originally low murmurs could no longer be suppressed.

This is the reality that Chu Jinjin has to face. If it were an ordinary woman, she would probably end up in a worse situation.

No matter what the situation was, she was driven back to her parents' home on the first day of their marriage.

The female members of the Chu family twisted their handkerchiefs angrily, but couldn't say anything.

Only Chu Jinjin walked to the door step by step, letting countless pairs of eyes stare at her.

Chu Yan's eyes turned red and he growled: "Why don't you get in the car?"

Chu Jinjin not only lost her own face, but also the face of the entire Chu family.

Chu Jinjin smiled at him and walked towards the crowd of onlookers step by step. It was nothing. If it were the same number of zombies, she might still care.

They are just a bunch of idlers watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously.

Her attitude made the crowd of onlookers confused about what to do and gradually became quiet.

"Have you seen enough?" Chu Jinjin glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Uncles and aunts, if I were your daughter today, sisters, would you do the same?"

No one expected that she would say this, and they looked at each other for a moment.

Chu Jinjin took another step forward: "It wasn't me who made the mistake, it was the Xu family."

Chu Jinjin never thought about changing the world. No matter what, it would be better than the precarious end of the world, but now the situation is different.

She still had decades to live, to get married and have children. If the matter of being divorced was allowed to develop, rumors could kill people.

In fact, when the news came out that Chu Zijian was in trouble and the concubine's sister committed suicide, most people figured out the reason.

It is not uncommon for similar things to happen. Once their natal family declines, most merchant girls lose their support and are left out in the cold by their husband's family.

But I can't control my greedy heart.

Chu Jinjin's frankness surprised everyone, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward, and even inexplicably felt that she had become an accomplice.

I don't know who said: "The Xu family is a bit bullying."

"Thank you for your generous words." Chu Jinjin accurately found the person in the crowd, nodded her head and said loudly, "Dear neighbors, now my father has been kidnapped by gangsters and his life and death are unknown. My Chu family has encountered a disaster. My eldest brother and I I decided to go in the hope of rescuing my father. The silk from our Chu family is of high quality and low price, and we also have the only Mobei Snow Silk in the capital. If you are in need, please support me."

Chu Jinjin does not need the support of public opinion. She will avenge her hatred against the Xu family by herself.

Chu Jinjin bowed deeply to the crowd, turned around and got into the car.

There was only one carriage prepared for this trip, and Chu Yan rode a horse, but he got in after him.

First, I don’t want so many people staring at me, and second, my head is buzzing right now.

Is this really his third sister?
In his impression, Chu Jinjin was no different from her other sisters. She stayed in the boudoir all day and spoke softly.

Just when he was full of questions, he saw Chu Jinjin put down the bag she was carrying. He originally thought he was carrying the girl's personal belongings, but he didn't expect that there was a crisp collision sound inside.

Chu Yan: "."

As the future successor of the Chu family, he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he knew exactly what that sound was.

There is definitely more than one weapon inside.
