Quick Wear: I Kill the Male and Female Leads in 48 Hours a Day

The Mistress of a Wealthy Family Opens the Book and Disowns Her Relatives (1)

  The three children were dressed similarly. They were kneeling at his feet, with their heads down and not saying a word.

  At this time, the old man sitting next to Jin Shu spoke.

  "Since you can't choose, then I'll choose for you. I think Zhao is a good kid. He has the demeanor of Mingqian when he was young. Maybe this is fate."

  Jin Shu hadn't figured out the situation yet, but from the old lady's few words, she could roughly guess that she was going to choose a son for herself to raise.

  She pursed her lips and said nothing. She glanced at the young boy closest to her. He kept his head down from beginning to end, but his back was very straight.

  The child named A Zhao who was just mentioned has looked up.

  Jin Shu glanced at him and then shook her head.

  "I'm not feeling well tonight, and my eyesight is blurry. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

  After saying that, Jin Shu coughed twice again, and her thin body swayed as if she would fall down in the next second.

  The old lady in brocade clothes seemed a little anxious when she saw her like this.

  "You are not in good health, so why not just settle down and save you from worrying every day."

  "I still need to think carefully about such a big thing. Let's stop here today. I need to take a rest."

  Seeing that Jin Shu was not moved, the old lady had no choice but to give up. She left after saying "Then you should take a good rest."

  The three children also retreated together.

  Jin Shu noticed that the child who was closest to her had a limp in his right foot and was shaking slightly when he walked.

  Even so, he still walked straight, obviously trying to correct his posture.

  The child named A Zhao kowtowed to Jin Shu respectfully and was the last one to leave.

  After everyone had left, Jin Shu was the only one left in the room. She breathed a sigh of relief and lay back on the couch.

  Arnold's voice rang out.

  "The plot is being transmitted, please check it carefully."

  Jin Shu closed her eyes and silently accepted a memory that did not belong to her.

  The original owner, Jin Shu, was a noble lady from a prominent family in the capital. At the age of fifteen, she married into the Dingguo Mansion, which was also a prominent family, and became the wife of Lu Mingqian, the eldest son of the Dingguo Duke.

  The Jin and Lu families have always had a close relationship. In addition, the original owner and Lu Mingqian were childhood sweethearts, and they had been betrothed since they were young.

  However, in the first year after the original owner got married, Lu Mingqian was ordered to go to war. In the same year, Duke Dingguo passed away, and the huge Duke's Mansion fell on the shoulders of the old lady.

  The old lady was in poor health and spent every day taking medicine, so she had no time to manage the trivial matters in the mansion.

  In desperation, the newlywed Lady Jin Shu took on all the chores of the Duke's Mansion on her own.

  With the death of Duke Dingguo and the eldest son Lu Mingqian's frequent military campaigns, the status of the Duke's Mansion deteriorated, and all of the Lu family's private businesses were affected, with more than half of them closing down.
