After pondering for a moment, Lin Xu bowed his head and said sternly: "Sister-in-law, you are serious! Brother Guo and I are of the same mind. I can do something for Brother Guo because of the loyalty between friends. How can I be greedy for gratitude?"
"Our Guo family is in such a state of decline. Mr. Lin is a good person among men. It is normal for him to look down on my two daughters. It is the slave family's presumption."
Yun Niang said sadly.
After hearing this, Lin Xu couldn't help but secretly thought: This woman is really powerful!
For the sake of the future of her two daughters, she first offered them to her as slaves without hesitation. After she declined, she said these words in a retreat!
If she continues to refuse, it will obviously prove that she despises her two daughters!
This kind of skill of putting people on the fire without making a move is extremely powerful!
It's a pity that she is only a woman. If she were a man, I'm afraid she could also become a hero!
After all, Guo Nanxing is a scholar, and he has a common problem among scholars, which is being thin-skinned!
Lin Xu had just helped their family, and they hadn't expressed any thanks yet, but now his wife had set up a fire to roast them, which made him feel very embarrassed!
So, he scolded: "Mother Yun, don't talk nonsense, Mr. Lin is not that kind of person!"
"Forehead......"
Lin Xu glanced at Guo Nanxing dejectedly. At this moment, he had to suspect that the two couples had deliberately sang along and dug a hole for themselves to jump into!
However, he has already thought of a countermeasure!
Do the Guo couple really want to marry their two daughters as concubines?
Obviously not!
Although this is an era where men are superior to women, as long as there is a way, who is willing to let his daughter be a concubine for others? Of course, you still have to find a good husband and become the first wife!
The status gap between wives and concubines is a world of difference!
Therefore, their real request is to find a shelter for their two daughters so that they will not be bullied in the future!
If that's the case, then find them a place that can shelter them from the wind and rain!
"Ahem..."
After coughing twice, Lin Xu said seriously: "Mrs.-in-law, you are serious. I am just a countryman in the mountains. How dare you have any contempt for your two nieces? Madam-in-law wants to send my two nieces to me as slaves. Really
You’ve broken me!”
Yun Niang felt very embarrassed when she heard Lin Xu call her two daughters "niece"!
Because although she said that she would give her two daughters to Lin Xu as slaves, of course she didn't really want them to be slaves, but she wanted them to be Lin Xu's concubines!
However, with this seniority as the "gap", she was embarrassed to mention it again!
Despite this, she was not willing to miss such a precious opportunity. She was organizing her words and thinking about how to tell Lin Xu about this when she heard Lin Xu continue.
"Although I dare not accept my two nieces as slaves, if Brother Guo and Mrs. Sister-in-law don't object, I can bring my two nieces to Linshan Village! There are both factories and schools there, and three meals a day are fully supplied.
Moreover, Linshan Village is very safe. With my two nieces staying there, Brother Guo and his wife don’t have to worry about being bullied at all!"
