"...It's the wife." Xiaonan finally spat hesitantly.

After looking at the bracelet again, Li Zaoer said, "Why?"

Xiaonan raised his head timidly, "Madam asked me if I would be a concubine for the uncle. I said I would, and when my wife was happy, she would reward me."

As expected, Li Zaoer sighed secretly, "Why are you willing? You should know, let alone you share the same man with my elder brother. Moreover, the law stipulates that a concubine is a concubine, and even if the elder sister is gone, you will not be able to be properly promoted. Moreover, you have seen the attitude of mother and elder brother towards her elder sister-in-law. No matter what, you will not protect you more. You will only be a concubine in your life."

I didn't pay attention to this before, but Li Zaoer only realized because of Xiangfeng. It turned out that in ancient times, there was a Minglu who said "Don't regard her concubine as a wife" and concubine as a humble concubine. Her status at home was a little stronger than that of a slave. Even if Xiangfeng was divorced or died, even if Li Shou loved Xiaonan, she could not be helped as a main wife.

"I know all of these. But... it's better than marrying a servant? Besides, both the wife and the uncle are good people, and I don't think they will treat me badly." Xiaonan whispered, looking at Li Zaoer's face, "I will serve the uncle and the eldest young lady well."

Li Zaoer raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't expect that Xiao Nan was a little timid, but she had some ideas in her heart. The only thing she pondered was that Zhou had already done this, and she couldn't stop her, so she probably couldn't stop her.

"Since it's my mother's intention, you are willing to do it yourself, then I don't have anything to say. However, I still hope that you can do it yourself." He stood up and walked to Xiaonan and returned the bracelet to her. Li Zaoer's voice was in silence and said, "After that, I'm telling you this matter privately. Whether you understand or not, you don't understand the meaning. In short, before my mother takes this out and talks about it, you'd better not talk to others randomly, especially be careful not to spread it to my sister-in-law's ears."

Xiaonan's face froze and he nodded slightly.

"Although this is my mother's decision, if this matter is not clear for a day, I will not want to make my sister-in-law sad for a day." Li Zaoer reached out and helped her up and said, "I also know that you are unhappy in your heart, so you may blame me. But my sister-in-law and I grew up together, and there are only two girls and me at home, and no one can compare to this relationship. Once I know that you deliberately show off your might in front of my sister-in-law..." She slowed down and looked at Xiaonan quietly.

Xiaonan shook again, "I dare not."

"That's the best." Li Zaoer said slowly: "If my sister-in-law really got some letter in advance, I can't stop my mother from wanting to hold her grandson. But taking a concubine! It's not a difficult task for the Li family now, and it may not necessarily mean you, right? Do you think, will my mother be careless about me for a concubine?"

Xiaonan's face turned pale, and he bit his lip and nodded slowly.

Li Zaoer smiled warmly, “Are you angry that I was deliberately showing you a look?”

"No. I dare not."

"It's okay, I should be upset me." Li Zaoer smiled and took out some broken silver and stuffed it into Xiaonan's hand. "I'm not stopping you from entering. Now, there's not much money. I'll give you a day off tomorrow. You'll go out and buy some rouge and powder, and dress up carefully. When you pass by, I'll tell my mother to give you a dowry on duty."

Xiaonan secretly looked at Li Zaoer's face. Seeing that there was no displeasure, hesitated and took the money off, "Thank you, Miss."

"Okay, you go out."

After lunch, Li Zaoer came to Zhou's room, closed the door, went to the kang and walked to Zhou's side, and said as if he was talking, "Mom, do you want your elder brother to take Xiaonan?"

Zhou stroked Li Zaoer's head and glanced at her faintly, "Well, I see this girl is still honest. I went to test her horoscope in the morning. There was nothing rich, but it was quite smooth."

"My sister-in-law hasn't had a child for so long, so I think it's time to take a concubine for my brother." Knowing that Zhou had made up her mind, Li Zaoer didn't dare to go against it, so she had to say, "But, mom, I always feel uncomfortable."

"Mom also feels uncomfortable. But..." Zhou sighed and said, "It's her life and nothing can happen."

"That's not the case. My sister-in-law was miserable when she was a child. She has only lived a good life in the past few years. Maybe she has a bad foundation, so she has been taking care of her recently." Li Zaoer said.

"Don't you know if you think you are a mother? But she has taken a lot of this medicine, but my grandson still has no sign." Zhou said, and he was inevitably a little resentful.

"This time it's different. Mom, this time it was my second sister-in-law's elder brother. The eldest brother of the Xu family is a famous doctor! Maybe there will be news in a few months!" Li Zaoer said cautiously.

Zhou smiled and nodded Li Zaoer's head, "I knew you were here to be a lobbyist! Why? I wanted to stop my mother from taking a concubine for your elder brother? You just feel sorry for your elder sister-in-law, but you don't feel sorry for your mother and your elder brother?"

"How could it be?" Li Zaoer hurriedly hugged Zhou's arm and smiled, "Of course, it's my mother's closest to my brother, so I feel most distressed. But I can't bear to leave my sister-in-law sad... Mom, I just want you to give my sister-in-law some more time. One year..." Looking at Zhou's face, Li Zaoer shook her head, "It's okay for half a year. What if there is news when it falls?"

Zhou frowned, "It's not that my mother doesn't trust that doctor. What if your sister-in-law still has no news after half a year?"

Seeing that Zhou was showing signs of loosening, Li Zaoer hurriedly said, "If it really doesn't work, don't ask for your mother. I will be responsible for marrying three concubines for my elder brother. Then a concubine will give birth to three grandchildren for you, three three is nine, and we will bless our Li family for a long time!"

"You, you've just been born and raised!" Zhou couldn't help laughing and said, "You said that, you'll be true..."

"I promise not to tell you about this anymore!" Li Zaoer promised.

"That's it." The mother and the mother reached an agreement, and Zhou put it aside and asked Li Zaoer, "Speaking of this, you girl has just gone out to make trouble in business these days, how much has she earned?"

Li Zaoer said with a smile, and Zhou couldn't help laughing, "But it's not as much as your two brothers give you pocket money!"

Li Zaoer also laughed, "That's right. Now the stall is small. When I make more money later, I will repay a shop. I will make more money by then."

"Don't you know if you think you are a mother? Even if you exchange ten shops, it will not be as expensive as your brother gives you." Zhou gave her a doting look, "I really don't understand that you, a girl, don't stay at home, and you have to go out!"

"That's different!" Li Zaoer smiled and hugged Zhou's shoulder, pulled her down the ground, "By the way, mom, I've made a kind of rouge recently, and the color I've wiped was a bit darker. I think mom should be suitable. Sit over and I'll give it a try."

"At aged, why are you applying rouge?" Zhou laughed and scolded, but she still sat in front of the mirror and let Li Zaoer apply it on her face. The mother and mother laughed for a while, and Zhou suddenly sighed, "You will get married in a few years, what should I do if you are married?"

Li Zaoer was stunned, then smiled slightly, "Mom thinks too much, how old am I?"

"Your birthday is a few days away. By then, you will be fourteen years old. It's not too young! The Chinese New Year is fifteen, so it's time to say it!" Zhou suddenly felt a little sad, "Mom just can't bear to leave you, and she's willing to stay for two more years, so it's not easy to go there for sixteen. That's the case when she got married and her in-laws agreed."

After Zhou said this, Li Zaoer felt so fast that she was in a daze, and decided to worry about the future. So she comforted Zhou for a while and quietly changed the topic. However, she also understood in her heart that Zhou was temporarily worried about Xiangfeng's affairs and would not be too anxious to worry about her lifelong affairs. But half a year later, when Xiangfeng's affairs were finished, it was her turn.
