Han Qingwen appeared at this time, which caught Wang Kunjun a little off guard. He originally planned to talk to Zhang Xiaofei about the results and then go to Han Qingwen to talk about this issue. I never thought about it, but I met Han Qingwen here. For a while, Wang Kunjun really didn't know what to say. While hesitating, I saw Han Qingwen take a deep breath, the expression on her face returned to calm, and then made a move that Wang Kunjun and Zhang Xiaofei did not expect—she took a small step back, then bowed slightly to Zhang Xiaofei, and said, "Qingwen has seen Sister Xiaofei. I don't know that my sister arrived at the house and couldn't meet her from afar, and I hope my sister won't blame her. ”

Han Qingwen's sudden gift made Zhang Xiaofei not know what to do. Accept it, it is tantamount to indirectly acknowledging the identity of the other party and yourself, which is contrary to your current thinking. Don't accept it, in the face of such a petite and cute, pitiful little sister, this is really unspeakable. Now Zhang Xiaofei can't go, and if she doesn't go, she can only stand there without saying a word.

Han Qingwen saw that Zhang Xiaofei did not make any further moves, and knew that she was now decided, so she said again: "Sister, where are you going, if you want to browse the 'Qingyuan', my sister can show you the way." If my sister wants to leave here, Qingwen has something to say, and I hope my sister can listen to Qingwen's words before making a decision. ”

Although Zhang Xiaofei still didn't speak, she didn't mean to leave immediately, Han Qingwen decided to strike while the iron was hot, and she continued to persuade: "What my sister and husband said Qingwen heard outside the door. Qingwen didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation, but Qingwen saw that her husband had been gone for so long and hadn't come back, so she was afraid that something had happened in the house, so she came here to look for her husband, and happened to hear it. Qingwen didn't know that her sister Weishenme was going to leave her husband behind, if it was because of Qingwen, it would be Qingwen who should leave, not her sister. After all, my sister is the husband's wife, and there is no reason to drive away the wife and leave the stepfamily. ”

At this time, Zhang Xiaofei had gradually calmed down and considered things more comprehensively. Wang Kunjun told her just now that this new wife is the daughter of an official eunuch. Although she didn't know how big the left-behind government official was, she still knew that in this era, unless she wanted to rebel, the common people would not offend the people who were in charge of the government anyway. Just imagine, if this Han girl had to go back to her parents' house because of herself, would her father be able to give up? When the time comes, the foundation that her husband and his companions have accumulated with great difficulty will be wiped out.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaofei saw that the other party said such things, afraid that she would really have to leave because of her arrival, so she hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that, I didn't want you to leave, I meant that I wanted to ......." ”

Qingwen knew that her sister was a generous person, and she would never tolerate Qingwen. Since this is the case, then Qingwen implored her sister to live in 'Qingyuan', if there is anything we can solve slowly, I hope my sister can give Qingwen this face. Zhang Xiaofei was only halfway through her words, and Han Qingwen took the conversation over and sincerely invited her to stay.

Facing the little girl's sincere eyes, Zhang Xiaofei finally didn't say the word "no". Seeing that the other party seemed to have acquiesced to her request, Han Qingwen finally breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Sister Xiexie is complete." Well, it's a great thing that you and your husband can be reunited, so you must celebrate it. My sister went to the kitchen to buy a banquet and wash the dust for my sister. ”

After speaking, Han Qingwen went to the courtyard where she lived, and prepared to send someone to the front yard to find the housekeeper Deng An and ask him to arrange a banquet. Looking at her back, Wang Kunjun and Zhang Xiaofei looked at each other, not knowing what to do next. At this time, I saw that the door of Fuyaozi's room was opened, and the dust probe looked out, and saw that Wang and Zhang had already left the conference room, so they retracted their heads again. Soon, Li Junwu, Zhang Weixin, and other three committee members came out of the room and came to the two.

Zhang Weixin asked, "Fifth brother, how did you talk to your sister-in-law?" ”

Wang Kunjun did not speak immediately, but motioned for everyone to go to the conference room to speak. immediately took Zhang Xiaofei's hand and was the first to walk in. It is estimated that Han Qingwen's words just now played a role, Zhang Xiaofei did not refuse, and followed him into the conference room very obediently.

After everyone sat down, Wang Kunjun repeated the situation to the other three. And Zhang Xiaofei also said that she would stay for the time being, and as for whether she would accept the fact that Wang Kunjun remarried, she would have to think carefully before speaking. Although Zhang Xiaofei is still noncommittal about whether to accept Han Qingwen, since she is willing to stay temporarily, it means that there is still a chance. Wang Kunjun's heart that had been hanging was finally half of it, but it was only half. At this time, he was still worried about another thing - if Xiao Fei accepted Han Qingwen's words, then Han Qingwen's position in "Qingyuan" would become very embarrassing. Previously, she was Wang Kunjun's wife, but now with Zhang Xiaofei's return, her status as a wife is gone, so wouldn't she become his Wang Kunjun's concubine. Although for Wang Kunjun, there is no difference between these two ladies, he will definitely treat them equally, and the rest of the team will not look down on Han Qingwen. But for people outside the team, I am afraid that they will not see it this way, and Han Qingwen's family is even more difficult to accept. On the other hand, if she continues to maintain the identity of Han Qingwen's wife, then Zhang Xiaofei will become a concubine, and in terms of her character, she will definitely not agree to give up her identity as a wife to be a "second wife". In that case, Zhang Xiaofei is afraid that she will still have to leave.

After thinking about it, Wang Kunjun couldn't think of a way to get the best of both worlds, and for a while, the gloomy mist returned to his face again. Zhang Weixin, who was sitting next to him, noticed the change in him and asked him why he was worried. Wang Kunjun told his worries, Li and Xu both felt that it was not easy to handle, and Zhang Xiaofei even showed the intention of retracting the decision just now, and declared that he would leave as soon as possible, so as not to embarrass Wang Kunjun. Only Zhang Weixin didn't see it that way, he waved his hand and said, "Fifth brother, don't worry about this, there is still a solution." I think you've all heard the saying 'three wives and four concubines', right? ”

"I've heard of it." Several others nodded yes. ,

"The saying of 'three wives and four concubines' actually does not just mean that someone has a group of wives and concubines, this statement still has a certain origin." Zhang Weixin explained, "The 'four concubines' have little to do with this matter, so we don't need to talk about it. Just talk about these 'three wives'. 'Three wives' refers to one wife and two equal wives, that is, the three wives are basically equal in status and sit on an equal footing. Of course, in essence, a flat wife is actually a little lower than a regular wife, but at least a wife, much higher than a concubine. Although this system was not codified into the law until the Qing Dynasty, there were examples of this method before that. Therefore, the return of Xiaofei's sister-in-law should not affect Han Qingwen's status, and she can exist as an equal wife.

As for the Han family's reaction to this matter, I think as long as we can guarantee Han Qingwen's status in 'Qingyuan', Lord Han or Mrs. Han can't say anything. On the one hand, the fifth brother was originally hired by three media and six people, and he married Han Qingwen back with an upright and beautiful scenery, which is completely different from taking a concubine, and his Han family did not lose any face. On the other hand, just like the fifth brother said at the committee meeting before, we also told him the truth about the fifth brother's marital status, and there was no deception. Xiaofei's sister-in-law's return can only be said to be providential, and Lord Han can't blame the fifth brother for this. ”

"What can he do with blame, can he still force the fifth brother to give Xiaofei's sister-in-law a retirement? Then he Han Tuiguan is too unreasonable, and I'm afraid he doesn't look good on his own face. Xu Shaoan said dissatisfiedly, "If he Han Deyi really dares to do this, then the fifth brother will not do anything, and he will directly give Han Qingwen a rest." If he, Han Deyi, takes revenge for personal gain, it's a big deal for us to go to Feilong Village and rebel against him. I don't believe that he is a small seven-rank pusher, and he can still let his Khitan master send troops to suppress us. ”

Seeing that Xu Shao'an's words were a little excessive, the others all spoke out to convince them, thinking that things could not reach this point, and everyone still had room for discussion. Wang Kunjun even said that if the two sides really can't compromise, it's a big deal that he will take the blame alone, and he must not affect the future of the team because of himself. Regarding Wang Kunjun's statement, other committee members and Zhang Xiaofei all vetoed it.

After Xu and Wang's emotions calmed down, Zhang Weixin continued: "I think that if this matter is to be resolved smoothly, the key lies in Han Qingwen. After all, she was the one who was most affected by the incident, and it would be much easier for her to convince her parents than for us to explain. And judging from what the fifth brother said just now, Han Qingwen seems to have accepted this reality, and it should be possible to mobilize her to convince her family. ”

"It's one thing for her to accept it, but it's another thing for her to convince her parents, can she say yes?" Wang Kunjun said with some concerns.

"I think it should be no problem, Brother Qi's analysis is still very reasonable. It's a big deal, the fifth brother, you tell her that when you need to bring your wife to show up in the future, you should try to take her there to give her enough face. It's just that if she does this, Xiaofei's sister-in-law will suffer a loss. I said, sister-in-law Xiaofei, are you still okay with my suggestion? Xu Shaoan continued to come up with bad ideas.

Xu Shao'an's question was asked very suddenly, Zhang Xiaofei didn't pay much attention to the context of his words, so he replied very casually: "I don't care, anyway, I have been cultivating in Yuqingguan for the past year, and I am used to the days of quiet and inaction, and I really don't want to do things that show up." ”

waited until this sentence was finished, Zhang Xiaofei found out that it was inappropriate. Wouldn't his answer be tantamount to agreeing to stay and continue to be Wang Kunjun's wife! So, she hurriedly looked back and explained: "Wang Kunjun, don't be blind to understand, I just followed Lao Xu's words and said this, I haven't decided whether to stay?" ”

Looking at Zhang Xiaofei's cute appearance of accidentally saying what was in her heart and refusing to admit it, everyone here wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to really laugh out loud, so they could only hold it there, and the expression on her face was quite good-looking. As a result, Wang Kunjun, who was sitting next to Zhang Xiaofei, naturally became the scapegoat of several other committee members, and the tender meat on his waist became the object of his wife's venting. Zhang Xiaofei, who had an embarrassed expression, after pinching Wang Kunjun a few times, fled from the conference room with a crimson face and went to find Senior Sister Jingyue, who was still chatting in Fuyaozi's room.

After Zhang Xiaofei left, the four members of the committee discussed again and decided that Wang Kunjun should communicate with Han Qingwen first and obtain her recognition of his status as a flat wife first. Then, go to Youzhou City with her and tell her parents about the matter, and strive for the other party's understanding. Of course, in order to prevent the Han couple from being angry with Wang Kunjun because of this incident and posing a threat to Wang Kunjun's safety, the security team will organize a capable security team to accompany him, just in case.

The subsequent things went quite smoothly, no matter what the reason, Han Qingwen has always been quite generous in this matter. She accepted Wang Kunjun's statement about his wife, and also agreed to go to Youzhou City with him to explain the matter to her parents. He also said that he would do his best to convince his parents to accept the matter.

Han Qingwen's performance made Wang Kunjun very moved, in his opinion, a little girl who is only eighteen or nine years old can have such a mind, it is really admirable, and it is definitely a model of a good wife and a good mother as the ancients said. As for whether she is a good mother or not, we will have to wait until later.

However, considering that the day after tomorrow is the day when the team members worship their ancestors, the trip to Youzhou City was arranged by the committee on April 20. In this regard, Han Qingwen also gladly accepted it.

That night, a large banquet was held in the "Qing Garden" to wash the dust for Zhang Xiaofei and Jingyue. At the banquet, the crowd warmly welcomed Zhang Xiaofei's arrival and persuaded her to stay and not leave. However, perhaps out of the self-esteem of modern women, or perhaps because she was unwilling to express her opinions in front of so many people, especially several ladies who were also traversers, Zhang Xiaofei finally failed to agree as positively as everyone wished, but only said that she would live in "Qingyuan" temporarily, and how long she would live depends on the situation.

Although he couldn't get a positive answer, as long as Zhang Xiaofei agreed to stay, it means that there is still considerable room for change in this matter. Therefore, the enthusiasm of the people who traveled through the crowd also increased, and the atmosphere of the banquet became more and more enthusiastic, and it did not end until late at night. Just when everyone else went back to their rooms to get ready to sleep, the problem was again in front of Wang Kunjun and Zhang Xiaofei - where did Zhang Xiaofei go to rest.

According to Wang Kunjun's original intention, he naturally hoped that Zhang Xiaofei could live in his West Cross Courtyard. In this way, it will not affect other team members, but also facilitate the daily communication between the two people, so that they can persuade Zhang Xiaofei to stay forever. In her opinion, the door that she could not enter the West Cross Courtyard was a symbol of whether she accepted Wang Kunjun as more than her wife. It's just that her wish had no possibility of being realized under Han Qingwen's constant pleading, and in the end she followed Han Qingwen into the West Cross Courtyard.

Of course, although Zhang Xiaofei entered the West Cross Courtyard, it does not mean that Wang Kunjun can hug left and right and enjoy the blessings of all people. After Han Qingwen and Zhang Xiaofei entered the living room of the main house, she told Wang Kunjun, who was still dreaming, that she wanted to sleep with Xiaofei's sister and whisper something about the girl's house, and she couldn't let him, a big man, listen. As a result, the poor chief of the king was driven to an empty room in the courtyard and left alone.

As for what Zhang and Han said, no one knows. However, it can be seen from the intimate relationship between the two since then that they must have talked a lot that night, and they talked very thoroughly.
