Favoring concubines and killing wives? The miraculous doctor mistress went crazy after her rebirth

The old lady gripped her cane tightly, as if she was going to crush it.

It was as if he mistook the crutch for Jiang Zhinian and wanted to crush Jiang Zhinian completely.

"The reputation we worked so hard to build is gone just like that. Now the whole of Yanjing regards our mansion as a joke."

Murong Chuan's face also looked unhappy. "Not only that, even when I go out I get pointed at."

Murong Chuan was extremely annoyed by the rumors outside.

"It's all Jiang Zhinian's fault!"

"Mother, this matter must be related to Jiang Zhinian."

The first person Murong Chuan suspected was Jiang Zhinian.

The reason for such suspicion is that Su Wanruo has been increasingly weakened by the rumors recently.

So Murong Chuan was very dissatisfied with Jiang Zhinian.

"If she hadn't acted so recklessly, our mansion wouldn't have been cursed!"

Murong Chuan was so angry that he couldn't vent it.

The old lady's face was gloomy. After thinking for a while, she said, "No, she may not have this ability yet. Someone should be helping her."

The old lady thought that Jiang Zhinian was stupid and foolish before, and he trusted her and Murong Chuan so much, so he should not have the ability to fight back like this.

However, we cannot generalize so much.

Maybe Jiang Zhinian can also pretend.

Murong Chuan said disapprovingly: "Someone will help her? Her maternal grandfather, the Huo family, has been exiled, and her grandmother is also sick. No one will help her."

"Maybe she arranged for someone to do this."

The anger and rage caused by the rumors made him blame everything on Jiang Zhinian.

If Jiang Zhinian hadn't objected to him taking a concubine, if she hadn't been unable to tolerate Wanruo, if she hadn't refused to pay her respects to her mother, how could things have turned out like this.

In fact, when Murong Chuan first married Jiang Zhinian, he also carefully coaxed and pampered Jiang Zhinian.

But in the past three years, he has become accustomed to Jiang Zhinian obeying his orders and taking him as the master in everything.

So he took all of Jiang Zhinian's efforts for granted.

If Jiang Zhinian did something a little bit displeasing to him, he would think it was Jiang Zhinian's problem.

He felt that Jiang Zhinian was disobedient and had trampled on his pride as a man.

"She is taking revenge on our mansion."

When he was angry, Murong Chuan could say anything.

The old lady looked at the expression on Murong Chuan's face at this moment, and a calculating gleam flashed across her eyes.

"It's all your fault. You can't even tie down a woman's heart."

"It may not be her. It is also possible that someone is deliberately targeting our mansion and suppressing our mansion."

"When you do things on a daily basis, don't just focus on our small piece of land in the Marquis' Mansion. Look outside."

"In the beginning, our mansion had many political enemies. They might take this opportunity to suppress our mansion and ruin its reputation."

The old lady thinks further ahead.

Of course, the old lady never took Jiang Zhinian seriously.

In her opinion, as long as the wife of the Duke's wife Wei Ying died and no one was protecting Jiang Zhinian, Jiang Zhinian would not be a threat.

"What I'm worried about is that the former political enemies of the Hou Mansion used to be concerned about Jiang Zhinian and the relationship behind Jiang Zhinian, so they stopped suppressing our Hou Mansion."

"Now that they see Jiang Zhinian has returned to her parents' home, they think Jiang Zhinian has become estranged from our mansion, so they are using the same old tricks to deal with our mansion."

"We can't let the rumors get worse. Although our mansion didn't have a good reputation before, things are getting better now. We need to find a way to reverse the situation."

Although Murong Chuan was angry, he naturally knew what was important now.

"I understand what mother means. We can't let the rumors continue to spread."

"Besides, we have just met the Fourth Prince. He may not take me seriously or make use of me. He is currently observing us."

“It’s really annoying that something went wrong at this time.”

The old lady thought of something, her eyes sparkling, and she analyzed seriously: "The Fourth Prince is willing to use our mansion. It's not that our mansion has any value, but it may be that Jiang Zhinian of our mansion has some value."

"Or maybe because Jiang Zhinian is the granddaughter of Lady Wei Ying of the Bo Mansion, the Fourth Prince may really value Wei Ying's ability."

At least the old lady was still sober.

Murong Chuan was originally very self-righteous, but when he heard the old lady say this, his face turned pale and blue.

"You can't admit it even if you don't want to. It's just a fact."

"I didn't mean to say this to undermine your confidence."

"But right now we have no choice but to coax Jiang Zhinian back first."

Seeing that Murong Chuan looked unhappy, the old lady could only soften her tone and said, "I know this has wronged you, but think about it, three years ago, who valued our Marquis' Mansion?"

"It is a fact that our mansion is in decline. Any fifth-rank official in Beijing would not take our mansion seriously."

"Which prince did you want to seek refuge with before, but you were unable to do so. Has the situation in our mansion changed in the past three years?"

Murong Chuan looked gloomy, and had to admit this, "Mother, I know what to do."

The old lady's brows relaxed, she nodded with satisfaction, and comforted him, "It's okay to suffer some grievances now, it's all for the overall interests of our mansion. When the Fourth Prince ascends the throne in the future, our mansion will have the merit of following the dragon. No one will dare to look down on our mansion, and no one will mention what we did in the past..."

Murong Chuan understood this truth.

Therefore, the grandfather and grandson also understood that they had to coax Jiang Zhinian back to the Marquis' Mansion.

……

Yanlanyuan

Murong Yanran has been very well-behaved in the Marquis' Mansion during this period, paying her respects to the old lady and Murong Chuan every day.

I also make some snacks from time to time to show my filial piety.

These were all taught by her mother.

She has lived with her mother at the border since she was a child. She has no power or influence and is sometimes bullied.

Her mother always told her that she was supposed to be of noble status and should not suffer those grievances, and that everyone should kneel down and salute her.

As time went by, she became more and more unwilling to give in. At the same time, she also learned to read people's expressions and to please others in order to achieve her own goals.

When Murong Yanran couldn't sit still anymore, she saw that Madam Liu had returned, and she hurriedly asked, "Madam Liu, what's the news in the mansion?"

Mother Liu was the wet nurse who served Murong Yanran at the border.

She was a wet nurse bought for her by her mother, and she had some skills.

This time she came to the Marquis's Mansion with a wet nurse and a maid.

Madam Liu whispered, "Miss, the Marquis spent most of the day in Miss's room. In the evening, he went to the old lady's yard. There were maids and old women guarding outside the yard. I couldn't get close to them, and I don't know what they said."

Murong Yanran's face changed, revealing a jealous look, "I am my father's daughter. My father has not come to see me these past few days. He only knows to go to that bitch's house."

"When I think I don't know, that bitch will pretend. I've seen this kind of trick many times in our area."

"She is just a concubine. How can she compare to the noble status of a young lady like me?"

Upon hearing this, Madam Liu became anxious, "Oh my, my eldest lady, you can't say this casually. Everyone in the mansion knows that the cousin is the one that the Marquis and the old lady protect with their hearts. You can't mess with her."

Mother Liu knew that Murong Yanran was arrogant, so she tried to persuade her anxiously.
