Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

Chapter 270 The Female Supporting Characters in the Republic of China 15

Nie family.

At this time, several concubines were sitting in the main hall. The woman in the lead was wearing a cheongsam embroidered with bright red peonies. Although there were some wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, she was still a beauty.

The remaining women were also dressed up beautifully and were chatting and laughing with the leading woman.

"Big sister, I'm afraid the young master will bring us a wife when he comes back this time." The second concubine waved a round fan, with a smile on her bright red lips.

"If you ask me, the elder sister has been with the young master for so many years, she should be able to sit in the position of lady. No woman outside can compare to our sister." The third concubine also laughed.

"Sisters, you are wrong. As the young master's concubines, we can make whichever woman the young master wants as his wife." The eldest concubine could see that those women were trying to instigate her to take the lead and compete for the woman her husband was going to pick up later.

It is said that the woman, like her husband, had returned from studying abroad and was her husband's classmate.

After just a few years, Nie Qixuan was moved and was determined to marry that female classmate regardless of everything, even hiding it from the Marshal and the old lady.

As for why Nie Qixuan didn't hide it from them? In Nie Qixuan's opinion, the four concubines were all good at talking and getting along very well. His harem was harmonious, and the concubines would definitely be happy to accept Tan Shengnan.

As for the undercurrents in secret, Nie Qixuan was unaware and just thought that his concubines were the kindest people.

The eldest concubine suddenly thought with some self-mockery and disappointment that it was a good thing that she was not Nie Qixuan's legal wife. Nowadays, free love, divorcing and remarrying are popular. If she was really the legal wife, she might have to make room for that woman.

In the past, the four of them fought each other till they were bloody, but the women outside always got the upper hand. The concubines were secretly resentful and decided to wait for the new wife to come and give her a warning.

Unexpectedly, Nie Qixuan came with a broken leg.

The four concubines were crying and in a panic, making Nie Qixuan feel as if there were several mosquitoes buzzing in his ears.

"Get out." Nie Qixuan drove the four concubines out angrily.

He thought he could recover from his injuries, but unexpectedly the old lady came and learned of his decision to marry a modern woman.

"Qixuan, my dear grandson, if you really like her, you can just take her as a concubine and be done with it. There is no need to give the position of principal wife to that restless woman."

In the eyes of Mrs. Nie, women who study abroad and those who walk in the streets in new school uniforms, shouting freedom and equality, are all restless women.

"It's different." Nie Qixuan also had this idea, but compared to the identity of concubine, he felt that the identity of wife would make Tan Shengnan more excited.

Besides, he also liked to talk about Sheng Nan's rebelliousness. When he was studying abroad in the past, what he heard most was how outstanding that woman was and how she was the most favored person by foreign teachers among their group of students.

Nie Qixuan also became curious and approached Tan Shengnan. He found that she was not only intelligent, but also had a free and easy-going personality that he had never seen before.

He immediately began to pursue Tan Shengnan passionately, but unfortunately every time, he didn't know whether Tan Shengnan really didn't understand or was pretending to not understand, and kept avoiding him.

Knowing that Tan Shengnan treasured the gold earrings on her ears, Nie Qixuan bought a bunch of fashionable foreign earrings and pulled off the gold earrings in front of Tan Shengnan, despite her objections.

"Although this thing is made of gold, the pattern is too old-fashioned. I bought you some of the latest foreign styles. They are much more expensive than this gold earring. Put them on instead."

Nie Qixuan was very proud and was still thinking about seeing the touch and surprise on Tan Shengnan's face, but he saw Tan Shengnan's cold face: "Thank you for your kindness, classmate Nie, but I can't accept your things. Give me back my gold earrings."

Being rejected in public, Nie Qixuan became angry instantly and threw the gold earrings directly into the school's central lake with a statue.

With a splash, Tan Shengnan quickly jumped down and picked up the gold earrings that Nie Qixuan had thrown into the water.

Nie Qixuan looked at the flash of disgust on her face, and his heart seemed to be pulled by something.

He had always had smooth sailing since he was a child, and had never been looked at like this by others.

From then on, he paid even more attention to Tan Shengnan, but after this incident, Tan Shengnan avoided him even more, always staying in the classroom, or quickly returning to the student dormitory after class, giving Nie Qixuan no chance to get close to him.

For Tan Shengnan, Nie Qixuan's behavior really bothered her. He was so self-righteous that he ripped off her earrings in public and gave her something she didn't need at all, thinking he was romantic.

What made her most uncomfortable was that Nie Qixuan threw her earrings into the lake in anger. He had not learned any manners or respect at all.

Tan Shengnan's criteria for choosing a spouse are very simple. He must be someone who can resonate with her ideas, be open-minded like her father, respect his wife, and not choose to take a concubine because of rumors from outsiders.

For decades, my father and mother have been as loving as ever, understanding each other, and giving each other a certain amount of space and respect.

However, Tan Shengnan does not plan to fall in love, get married, and have children at this time. She plans to wait until the domestic situation stabilizes and internal troubles are resolved before she has the energy to consider her lifelong event. If she meets someone who she likes and shares the same feelings with, she might choose to get married.

But that person would definitely not be the arrogant Nie Qixuan.

The grandson in front of her had a broken leg, but he was still thinking about the woman who had not yet married. The old lady was a little angry, and immediately asked someone to send a telegram, wanting her son to give this ignorant grandson a good beating.

Marshal Nie was extremely busy with the matter of Jing Yunchuan from the north returning to the City That Never Sleeps. There were also undercurrents flowing between the north and the south, and they both disliked each other.

Things were better when Marshal Jing was in charge of the affairs before, and the two sides could get along peacefully on the surface. Later, Marshal Jing's son used thundering means to sideline Marshal Jing, and drove out the group of foreigners who were showing off their power and attempting to interfere in the internal affairs of the North. From then on, he truly took power.

All the old-school people who were ready to restore the old dynasty were eliminated by Jing Yunchuan.

Marshal Nie felt that what he did was amazing, and then he thought of his son...

Marshal Nie felt overwhelmed when he heard that his son had a broken leg but was still thinking about marrying a woman for love.

Marshal Nie had a vague feeling that Jing Yunchuan's next target would be him.

But he was not afraid. After all, he was just a young boy. Even if the boy had some skills, he was still too young compared to him.

As long as he can gain benefits, what does it matter if he cooperates with foreigners? As for those territories in the country, just give them away. They are just a few small places anyway, and it will not prevent him from becoming the local emperor of China.

It is not certain who will eliminate whom.

At the same time, several factories and laboratories were quietly built.
