Marry and obey your husband
After leaving the Lu Mansion, He Jinwen held her child in her arms and headed in the direction pointed by Xuemei.
"The sixth alley...the sixth...where is the sixth?" He Jinwen has been a daughter of a wealthy family since she was a child. She never goes out of the door or takes a step forward. She always travels in soft sedans and carriages, with a group of maids and servants.
.
She has never left the house alone, this is the first time.
The blood stains on her face from last night had not yet been washed away, attracting many onlookers. Being pointed at in public made her face lackluster.
But the more embarrassed she was, the more she hated him. She hated Lu Guanting for being ungrateful, and she hated him for being ruthless and shameless.
"Oops... which alley entrance is this?" More and more onlookers made it difficult for her to move forward. She had completely forgotten which alley entrance it was now.
She is lost.
"Excuse me, how to get to Hongshan Temple?" He Jinwen grabbed a passerby and asked.
The man saw that He Jinwen was covered in dirt and blood, and she was holding a child in her arms. He guessed which family she should have run away from. He did not dare to say anything nonsense. Otherwise, he would have to bear the responsibility when her husband's family came to find her.
!
He waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't know, I don't know, little lady, you'd better go home quickly."
"I don't have a home anymore," He Jinwen said.
She asked another woman: "Excuse me, how to get to Hongshan Temple?"
Hongshan Temple is far outside the city, and is usually used for rituals for people who have died in vain. Most of the people who have anything to do with Hongshan Temple have life lawsuits on their backs, and she doesn't want to provoke it.
"I don't know." The woman also replied.
He Jinwen asked several people in succession, but without exception, everyone avoided her. They gathered in a group and talked in low voices. In the end, they actually blocked her way and sent her directly to the Yamen.
"As a woman, you obey your father at home and your husband when you get married. Now you are showing off with your child in your arms. It is really immoral. It is better to inform your husband as soon as possible and take you back!"
"I don't have a husband! I won't go back! You have no right to do this!" When He Jinwen heard that they were going to notify Lawrence Lu, she immediately turned pale with fright. She dodged left and right in the crowd and ran eastward.
But when a group of people want to catch you, and you have no power to fight back, you can't resist at all. In the end, they will only catch you.
Then, He Jinwen was taken to Jingzhao Mansion.
He Jinwen was regarded as a crazy woman and was not qualified to meet the powerful officials. She was relieved. But soon, her heart began to rise again.
In the cell, the surroundings were in a mess. On the walls were all kinds of filth, new and old piled on top of each other. I couldn't tell whether it was blood or excrement.
He Jinwen felt extremely wronged.
She has never experienced such humiliation in her entire life. In one day, she was beaten and threatened by her husband, chased on the street, and now she is actually a prisoner. And the child in her arms still gives her no chance to sleep.
"Which family are you from?" the jailer asked her.
He Jinwen was cryptic and said unnaturally: "The He family."
"Which He family?"
"The Secretary of the Ministry of Finance, congratulations."
After He Jinwen finished speaking, the jailer's expression changed. Among the six tribes, Hubu was the most plump. If she was really the wife and concubine of the Hubu Shangshu family, how could he dare to neglect her? He was about to report it immediately. But as soon as he took two steps, he turned back fiercely.
Lai glared at her: "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise, I won't be able to spare you!"
It is definitely not possible for He Jinwen to ask Lu Guanting for help now. She can only count on her father.
After the jailer left, He Jinwen stood there from dawn to dusk, spending the longest day in her life in difficulty and anxiety.
But what she didn't expect was that the person she was waiting for was not her father, but Lawrence Lu.
Lu Guanting, wearing white and clean clothes, entered the cell accompanied by the governor of Jingzhao.
At any time, he would keep himself clean and tidy.
Unlike her, she turns into a crazy woman when something happens.
"Hurry up and open it?! This is our Lord Lu's wife." Jingzhao Prefecture's Yin loudly ordered the jailer, but the jailer was too slow to open the cell door and was kicked by him: "What's going on? Not even Mrs. Lu is here."
What's the point of recognizing him? Get lost." After saying that, the governor of Jingzhao personally took the key and opened He Jinwen's cell door.
He Jinwen was so frightened that she fell to the ground and didn't care what the filth on the ground was.
When she saw Lawrence Lu, her legs became weak and she couldn't stand up at all.
"It's funny. My wife has been in a bad mood recently. Thank you for taking care of her." Lu Guanting said politely, walked forward, dragged He Jinwen's arm, and half pushed her out of the prison.
"Madam, how did you become like this?" On the way, Lu Guanting pretended not to know, and in order to deceive others, he spoke softly and cared for her.
He Jinwen was too frightened to speak, but because the governor of Jingzhao was still following behind, he continued: "The death of Zhuying and Zhumin must have caused a big blow to you. You are always afraid and worried about our children and
They usually end up being so mentally disturbed. After I get home, I can spend more time with you, okay?"
Every word Lu Guanting spoke was extremely gentle, and the way he supported her was impeccable. Jingzhao Fuyin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two of them leaving the Yamen.
The governor of Jingzhao often walked around the He family. Although He Jinwen's hair was disheveled and her appearance was not neat, and she had lost a lot of weight, Lu Guanting's words made sense. He felt relieved.
Lu Guanting is in the limelight and he helped him find his wife this time. He should appreciate his love, right?
However, after getting on the carriage, Lu Guanting's face completely changed.
He pushed He Jinwen into the carriage without showing any affection at all, and then sat far away from her near the car door, looking at her with disgust: "Do you know who asked me to come?"
He Jinwen's face was pale. Although she had already guessed it, she still asked: "Who?"
"Your good father, my good father-in-law, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, congratulations."
"..."
really.
He Jinwen actually understood in her heart.
With her current appearance, no one would recognize her at all. She sent someone to the He family, but Lu Guanting was waiting for her. This is enough to show that the He family has guessed her identity. After all, she is the only relative of the He family who has given birth to a child recently.
After sending someone to ask, they naturally found out that she had sneaked out.
And she is their pride and their hope. The protection of their next generation rests on Lu Guanting. If anything goes wrong with Lu Guanting, the entire He family will be implicated.
Although men are all striving for their own futures, they have a common goal - they will not allow women to escape their control. They will not give up their own interests for the sake of their life and death.
They can join forces and sacrifice her.
Even if she is his biological daughter.
