In the middle of the night, the moonlight shone brightly, shining into the house through the half-open screen window, and the ground seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost.

Jin Xin sat alone on the bed in a white bedclothes, his black hair was scattered, like black ink falling on white rice paper, by the moonlight, simple black and white, a handsome melon seed face, black pupils like stars in the night sky, flashing with a quiet light, particularly dazzling.

She looked down at the key she was holding, rubbing it thoughtfully.

This key is the key given to her by the old lady during the day, in fact, since the death of the second master, this key has been kept in the hands of the old lady, and until today, the old lady handed over the key to her.

It is also Jin Xin's luck, the second master knows that before his death, there is only one daughter, Jin Xin, although she was born in the side room, she is nominally a concubine, but she is also the only heir, plus the old lady's tolerance and pampering, otherwise, this key will not fall into Jin Xin's hands.

Jin Xin looked at the key, then shifted his gaze, and looked at the sandalwood box resting beside him, which contained the contents of which were full of weight.

I don't know if it's providence or coincidence, in short, at this juncture, obtaining these things is undoubtedly a charcoal in the snow for Jin Xin.

In any case, these should not be wasted.

Jin Xin clenched the key in his hand, his eyes moved, and then, as if he had made some important decision, a trace of firmness flashed.

She simply put her things away, put them on the pillow, and straightened her hair, and lay down on her side, her clear eyes twinkling for a moment in the night, then she slowly closed them, and soon fell asleep.

The next day, Jin Xin got up, just finished washing, and was about to have breakfast, when he saw a little maid from the eldest lady standing at the door, saying that the eldest lady was looking for her.

Ziqin had just served porridge to Jin Xin, and when she heard this, she hesitantly put down the bowl of porridge in her hand and looked at Jin Xin: "The eldest lady came to find her at this time, shouldn't it be for that marriage?" ”

Jin Xin put down the steamed bun in his hand indifferently, smiled, and didn't respond to Ziqin, but turned his head to the maid and said, "You go back and tell Mrs. Sù first, saying that I will be there in a while." ”

The little maid listened, nodded, and left.

Mother Zhang happened to bring a freshly fried dish over, just passing by the little maid, she looked back at the little maid suspiciously, walked in the door, and said, "Isn't that the maid in the eldest lady's yard?" How did you get here? ”

Ziqin said: "I sent a message for the eldest lady, saying that I wanted the young lady to come over." ”

Mother Zhang's eyebrows froze: "Could it be—"

It has been some time since the marriage of the sixth lady has come to an end, and the sixth miss has been married, and there is only one fifth lady Jin Xin in this house who has reached the marriageable age but has not yet married.

And Jin Xin's marriage has been concerned before, and now, it is undoubtedly on the agenda again.

Moreover, as early as a few days ago, the news that Jin Xin was about to marry Yu Shangqi, the eldest young master of the General's Mansion, as a concubine spread in the mansion, and I don't know who released the news, the most important thing is that the eldest lady never denied it, as if she had acquiesced!

Naturally, everyone took it as true, after all, the eldest lady did not deny it, and the fifth lady's marriage was all decided by the eldest lady alone.

Even the old lady can't interfere forcefully.

The most important thing is the attitude of the old lady -
