Yin Mingyu lowered his eyes and said calmly, “It’s just to kill time. Who can laugh? If you like it but have concerns, you can choose another name. It just so happens that my eldest sister’s dowry includes a bookstore. You can put it there for consignment.”

Lady Wen was very excited, but she couldn’t make a decision right away, so she changed the subject and said, “I went to say goodbye to my mother before leaving today, and my eldest sister-in-law asked me to introduce her to you. She wanted to become friends with you.”

Yin Mingyu showed little interest and said politely, “It’s busy during the New Year holidays, and I only have two days free, so I have no time to socialize.”

Lady Wen didn’t want to complain about her family, so she just said vaguely, “My eldest sister-in-law likes to make friends with people. If she really wants to do that, she won’t give up. Even if I can’t help her, she will definitely find other ways……”

Yin Mingyu didn’t care. Even when she hadn’t married into the Xie family, she dared to reject Princess Wei Yang, let alone others.

Lady Wen just gave her a reminder, and when she saw that she knew what was going on, she turned away.

Yin Mingyu prepared a table of food at noon to entertain Lady Wen. The two of them drank a few glasses of wine and had a more lively conversation in the afternoon.

Lady Wen herself did not notice it. She had just been talking about the story in the book she was reading, but now her wild imagination was mostly just her thoughts.

Yin Mingyu did not remind her and leaned back on the couch with a smile on her face, just as if she was listening to someone tell a story.

After seeing them off in the afternoon, Yin Mingyu learned that Xie Qin had a day off today and had returned home early. He actually invited her second brother and Han Jing to the house to teach him about academic matters. She asked someone to go to the kitchen and send a few plates of snacks to the study in the front yard as her treat.

Xie Qin had never received any food that she had specially sent to the front yard. Even though he knew rationally that it was a courtesy, he could not help but be even more strict when instructing the two guests, especially Han Jing.

He was a cold and taciturn person by nature, and when it came to academic matters, he was very direct and completely merciless.

Yet he had a good point, and said to Han Jing: “The Spring Examination is only three months away. If you want to get a good ranking, you will need to work harder.”

Han Jing already felt a little awkward with Xie Qin. Now, holding his criticized article full of annotations, he clearly couldn’t laugh but had to show that he was learning. He felt even more depressed.

Even more depressed than him was Yin’s second young master Yin Minglin.
