Chapter 52 I'm not a son-in-law

"Haha, there's no problem." Qin Mu said with a smile.

"Master Qin, we also want to see Hongxiu, but we can't leave the mansion at will."

Xiang'er said with some embarrassment that Xiang'er also wanted to go to the place where Hongxiu lives in the future, but in the mansion, the maids cannot leave the mansion casually, and they need the consent of the masters.

"That's it, I'll tell Master Xu Si. You all go to my new home the day after tomorrow. Then let Hongxiu get a table of good wine and food. Everyone is happy, and it can be considered a celebration of Hongxiu and I having a new home."

Qin Mu said that he had no relatives and friends except the Mu family. Now that he moved to his new home, he had to invite guests to celebrate. These maids are Hongxiu's good sisters, and they are also friends of him. Qin Mu invited them to drink, which is better than the quiet and quiet ones at that time, three or two guests.

"Will the Fourth Master agree?"

A maid said with some concern, "This maid really wants to go out and have a look. Since she was sold to the Xu Mansion, this maid has not yet left the Xu Mansion. Now she is very curious about the outside world.

"Haha, why don't you believe me? Then I will ask a car to pick you up."

Qin Mu said with a smile that many of these maids were not over 18 years old. In Qin Mu's previous life, they were still students and little girls, but they were maids serving others here. There were many people who might have died of old age and never left the Xu Mansion. Qin Mu felt a little pitiful of these maids, but Qin Mu knew that he could not help them. After all, this is the system in this world, and it is not something that one or two people can change.

What's more, Qin Mu doesn't want to change this social system. No matter what era, the first person to challenge the social system will not have any good endings. He will be killed by the inherent power of this social system.

"Mr. Qin, thank you, you are such a good person."

Xiang'er said happily that Xiang'er could feel that Mr. Qin's words came from the heart and sincerely invited people like him to visit. More importantly, Xiang'er could not feel discrimination against her maid from him. You should know that in the Xu Mansion, even if the eldest lady is so good to her servants, Xiang'er could feel that she actually looked down on her servants, but she just felt pity for her servants. It would be great if she could be Mr. Qin's maid. Xiang'er didn't know why she had such extravagant hopes.

"Haha, I'm a good person, why don't I realize it? You guys talk, I'll go find Master Xu Si." Qin Mu touched his chin and smiled.

"Good person", Qin Mu doesn't want to be a "good person". In his previous life, if the girl you like said to you, "You are a good person", it means telling you that she doesn't like you, and lets you give up and don't have any unreasonable thoughts. In this world, you can't be a "good person". Being a "good person" means you are easy to bully, and anyone may take a bite from you.

Qin Mu found Mr. Xu and asked for a carriage. Under everyone's strange eyes, he hugged Hongxiu and walked out of Xu's mansion and got on the carriage, making Hongxiu shyly buried his head in Qin Mu's arms and dare not come out, for fear of others' jokes.

It turned out that Hongxiu wanted to leave by herself, but after getting out of bed, she fell down in pain. If it weren't for her good sisters around her, Hongxiu would have fallen to the ground.

Qin Mu felt a little sorry for Hongxiu, walking with pain, and directly picked her up. Regardless of Hongxiu's plea, he hugged Hongxiu out of Xu Mansion so generously. Although the etiquette system of the Qin Dynasty was very strict, there was no regulation that the male owner could not walk with his maid, so Qin Mu was not worried at all. Someone complained that he was depressed. You should know that the law of the Qin Dynasty was very clear. The maid was the owner's private property, and he held his private property. Who could say what?

"Brother Qin, I didn't expect you to be so kind to you, and you are so kind to a maid." Xu Donghai, who sent Qin Mu out of Xu's mansion, looked at Qin Mu with a smile and said.

"Haha, third brother, Hongxiu is the maid given to me by your Xu family. How can I not love her? If you are not good to her, wouldn't you just give face to your brothers?" Qin Mu said with a smile.

"Haha, I love hearing these words from Brother Qin." Xu Donghai said with a laugh.

"By the way, brothers, I will set up a few tables of banquets in my new yard at noon the day after tomorrow. You will all enjoy the food at that time, which can be regarded as celebrating my joy of moving forward." Qin Mu said.

"Don't worry, we all know, we will definitely go there when the time comes." Xu Dongliang said.

"Okay, those brothers, I'll say goodbye."

After Qin Mu finished speaking, he bowed his hand and also took the carriage to go to Mu Erye's mansion. After all, the new house is empty now and there is nothing, so people cannot live immediately. Qin Mu took Hongxiu to live in Mu Erye's mansion today. Tomorrow he will go buy some furniture, bedding and other things with Hongxiu, and will officially move into the new house tomorrow.

...

"Who is the woman you are holding in your arms?" Mu Shangrong asked unhappily when he saw Qin Mu holding a woman into the yard.

"Uncle Second is back, why did he come back so early today?" Qin Mu said with a haha.

"Answer me, who is the woman in your arms?"

Mu Shangrong looked at Qin Mu with a dark face and asked again. Mu Shangrong couldn't help but be angry. Qin Mu had not even married his eldest niece, but he actually dared to hug and hug other women and hug them at home. What a moral character, and he still saw the Mu family. Do you still know that he is just a son-in-law of the Mu family? Don't think that if you do something big for the Mu family, you can do whatever you want.

"He is my woman." Qin Mu said.

"You woman? Where is our Yunxi?"

Mu Shangrong asked with a very angry smile, Qin Mu is really brave, where is he putting his Mu family?

"Master Mu, no, I'm just Mr. Qin's maid." Hongxiu saw that the second uncle got angry with his master, so he quickly said.

"Maid?"

Mu Shangrong looked at Hongxiu with some confusion and asked, Qin Mu is the son-in-law of the Mu Mansion, where did the maid come from? Why don’t I know about this?

"Yes, it was Mr. Xu who gave me slave to Mr. Qin." After Hongxiu came down from Qin Mu's arms, he said respectfully to Mu Shangrong.

"Xu Dongyi gives you the maid?"

Mu Shangrong looked at Qin Mu in surprise and asked, "You must know that when Butler Wu came back last night, he told him what happened after Qin Mu arrived at Xu's mansion, but he didn't say anything about sending him to the maid."

"That's right, Hongxiu was the maid given to me by Lord Xu, and she is also my woman."

Qin Mu hugged Hongxiu and said, after all, Hongxiu's body is still a little weak now, and Qin Mu is worried that she will not stand firmly and fall.

"You are a son-in-law, and you still want to have a few women."

Mu Shangrong said unhappily, although Qin Mu did a big thing for the Mu family this time, Mu Shangrong felt that he still had to knock on him and let him understand his identity. He was just the son-in-law of the Mu family and had no status. He didn't want to do whatever he wanted. It depends on the Mu family's expression.

If you want to have more maids, you can, but it must be approved by the Mu family. He has no right to decide. So today Mu Shangrong decided to teach Qin Mu to let him understand his identity and not do anything that violates his identity in the future.

"Son-in-law, second uncle, do you mean that I am the son-in-law of your Mu family?" Qin Mu asked with a look of surprise.

"Do you think it's not?"

Mu Shangrong looked at Qin Mu with a sneer and asked. The entire Liyuan County knew that he was the son-in-law of the Mu Mansion, and he dared to pretend not to know. It was ridiculous.

"Of course not. When my grandfather and Grandpa Mu decided to marry Yun Xi, Yun Xi got married to our Qin family, but he didn't say that I would marry into the Mu family. Where should I start with this son-in-law?"

Qin Mu said that Qin Mu would never agree that he was the son-in-law of the Mu family. In the past few days, Qin Mu looked at the laws of the Qin Dynasty and the history of this world, which was no different from the ancient world in his previous life. The son-in-law had no social status at all.

From the time when Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms to Zhao Gao's founding of the Qin Dynasty, the officials always regarded son-in-law as criminal officials and fugitives like merchants. They were fourth-class citizens of society and were often conscripted to remote areas to serve labor or guard the garrison.

"Records of the Grand Historian: The Annals of Qin Shihuang" records: "In the thirty-three years, I found that some people died, and the son-in-law were born, and the merchants took over the land of Luliang." During the Former Qin Dynasty, the son-in-law's status was extremely pitiful.

"Book of the Great Qin: Biography of Chao Cuo" records: "The garrison soldiers of Qin...the first officials were exiled and son-in-law merchants." The Great Qin inherited the legacy of the Former Qin Dynasty and regarded the son-in-law as a despicable son-in-law, and prohibited son-in-law from being an official.

"Book of the Great Qin: Biography of Gong Yu" says: "During the time of Emperor Qin Wen, he was honest and corrupt, and those who were merciless and those who were stolen by the sons-in-law and officials were imprisoned and were not allowed to be officials."

In the Qin Dynasty, once he became a son-in-law, Qin Mu was over in his life. He had to live a life of his family based on his face. His children could not take his surname as his mother. Another thing is that if he made the Mu family unhappy one day, he could be beaten to death. Even if he was beaten to death, the government would not care about it. It was no different from being a servant.

"The people in your Qin family are dead. When you were sent to the Mu family, everyone had already decided that you were the son-in-law of the Mu family. Otherwise, why would the Mu family care about your food and accommodation?"

Mu Shangrong said with some confidence that when Mr. Qin and his father had made such a marriage, he did not want Qin Mu to marry him. However, after he was sent to the Mu Mansion, everyone agreed that he was a son-in-law. After all, he had nowhere to go except the Mu family.

"Just, I am the son-in-law of the Mu family. What's wrong with me living in the Mu family for a few years? Which law in the Qin Dynasty stipulates that the son-in-law cannot live in the father-in-law's house?" Qin Mu said.

"you……"

Mu Shangrong was so speechless that he was a little overwhelmed by Qin Mu. Mu Shangrong underestimated Qin Mu's ability to speak well.
