Are these people really the family members of the third master of the Marquis’ Mansion?

Why do you look so poor?

He heard people say that the wife the Third Master married was the daughter of a merchant, so she shouldn't be so poor! At first glance, it looked like a poor relative who was asking for money.

Su Qingwan and Jiang got out of the car. She was very satisfied with the way the doorman looked at them. After all, this was something she had carefully arranged.

In the previous life, their family also returned to the capital in March, but the large boxes and small packages filled more than ten large carriages. Together with the maids and servants, there were about thirty carriages in total.

At that time, their family regarded Chengping Marquis Mansion as their home, but they had no idea that it was a hell that eats people. The people kept in the mansion were all evil spirits. They had long been eyeing the money of the third house, and then they also had their eyes on the property of their mother's family, but at that time, their family was not alert at all.

In this life, she will not repeat the same mistakes. She will only make those greedy villains pay the price they deserve.

"The last time we came back, you were only five years old. Ten years have passed in a flash. Your father went on a patrol and didn't come with us. I feel a little uneasy."

Jiang was so nervous that her palms were sweating. She was the daughter of a merchant. When she was married to the Third Master, she was not liked by the Marquis and the second wife. Now she came back with two sons and a daughter, and she didn't know what would happen.

"Mother, we are going back to our home. You are the third lady of the Marquis' Mansion. There is nothing to worry about. If you are tired, I will talk to the elders later." Su Qingwan supported Jiang and comforted her.

They had been traveling for so many days, and Jiang's bones were almost broken by fatigue. She patted her daughter's hand. Her daughter knew how to comfort herself. She had indeed grown up.

The steward of the Marquis's Mansion came out after a while, and when he saw the person standing outside the door, he was also stunned.

Are these really the Third Madam and the Young Master and Young Lady of the Third House? Their clothes are, well, too plain.

"Butler Wang, long time no see. How are you?" Jiang asked with a smile.

It is really the third wife Jiang, Jiang Baihua.

"This old servant greets the Third Madam and the two young masters. Miss, please come into the mansion quickly. The First Madam has been waiting for you to come back!"

Butler Wang hurriedly greeted them and led the people from the third room in. He also gave the doorman a look and asked him to help arrange the carriage.

Stepping into the Marquis of Chengping's Mansion again, Su Qingwan curled her lips into a sneer. This splendid and prosperous mansion was filled with filth that could not be seen in the light.

Apart from the Su brothers who were looking around the Marquis' Mansion, Su Qingwan and Jiang followed the butler towards the inner courtyard without looking around.

Turning the corner of the corridor, Su Qingwan saw several people standing at the door of the flower hall waiting for them.

Standing at the front were two middle-aged women dressed elegantly. They were about the same height, but one was plump and rounder, while the other was thinner.

The more rounded one is the eldest lady of the Marquis' Mansion, Liu, who comes from the Earl of Yongkang's Mansion. Although she was born a concubine, she is now in charge of the household affairs of the Marquis of Chengping's Mansion, and she is the one who arranges all matters related to the third room returning to the Marquis' Mansion.

The thin woman is the second wife of the Marquis' Mansion, Kang. She is from Xian De Marquis' Mansion and is the legitimate daughter of the fifth branch of the Marquis' Mansion. It's a pity that the fifth branch has already separated from the main family of Xian De Marquis' Mansion. Now she can't rely on the help of Xian De Marquis' Mansion and has to support her own family.

The two ladies of the Marquis' Mansion were stunned when they saw several people coming out from the corner of the corridor.

It’s just like what the doorman said, the people from the third room look like poor relatives.

What are you wearing?

All the clothes were washed white, and the third sister-in-law didn't have any decent jewelry on her body. The young girl supporting her should be her daughter.

Oh my, she only has a plain silver hairpin in her hair, and she doesn’t even have a pair of earrings. This is too shabby.

They had originally been hoping that the third wife would bring back some money and property, but the current situation is completely different from what they imagined!

Why would the Third House come back to the Marquis' Mansion? They probably can't even afford the money to be paid to the government.

Su Qingwan naturally noticed their expressions, and the smile on her lips became even more intense.

In the previous life, after the third wife returned home, she supported the entire family in the marquis's mansion. Even the marriages of the children of the first and second wives were paid for by the third wife.

But the money alone is not enough to satisfy these evil spirits from the Third House. They also want the lives of the people from the Third House!

Su Qingwan suppressed her coldness. This time, their third branch was going back to the Marquis' Mansion to eat at the rich man's table. She didn't know if the people in the Marquis' Mansion could bear it.

"Mother, are they the eldest aunt and the second aunt?" Su Qingwan asked directly

"Yes, they are the first and second wives of the Marquis' Mansion, that is, your first and second aunts."

Jiang was a little regretful now. She shouldn't have listened to her daughter and traveled light. Now looking at the stiff faces of the two sisters-in-law, they wouldn't think that the third room came back to collect money.

It was the first Madam Liu who came to her senses first and came forward politely to greet him.

"Third brother and sister-in-law, I finally got you back!"

"Meet the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law!"

Jiang performed the greetings first, and then asked her daughter and two sons to pay their respects to the elders.

"This must be Qingwan, right? She is quite pretty, but her dress is too plain. But auntie knows that you do it on purpose to make it easier to travel, right?" Liu asked tentatively.

Although the gifts from the third house as filial piety have gradually decreased in the past three years, especially in the past six months, the amount of silver notes sent to the Marquis's Mansion has become less and less, she remembered that only one hundred taels were sent back last time, which was not enough for her daughter to buy a hairpin.

Jiang was about to speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth she cried out in pain. Her waist was both painful and numb.

"What's going on here?"

The eldest lady was startled, and then she realized that Jiang's face had turned pale and she looked in great pain.

"Aunt, when we came back, the carriage that mother was sitting in broke apart. She might have hurt her waist. Can you take her back to her room to rest first?"

Su Qingwan supported Jiang and looked at her aunt Liu with a worried look on her face.

"Fall apart?" Liu was stunned again. How fragile must this carriage be!

"Yes, it is broken to pieces, and we have to pay for the carriage."

Su Qingwan didn't feel guilty at all when she said this, but her younger brother Su Yuewu looked at her in confusion.

Isn't the carriage shop owned by my family? If my family members damage the carriage of my own carriage shop, do I have to pay compensation?

Jiang also turned around to look at her daughter, her eyes revealing a question as to what nonsense she was talking about. However, Su Yuewen looked calm, thinking that whatever her sister said was right.

Su Qingwan: "Mother, I'll take you back to your room to rest first. Who of you can lead the way?"

Madam Zhou beside Liu glanced at her mistress, then stood up and bowed to the people from the third room, "Madam, young lady and two young masters, please follow me."

The first wife Liu and the second wife Kang looked at the backs of the third room's people as they walked away, and their brows unconsciously furrowed together.

"Sister-in-law, isn't my third brother's wife from a merchant family? How has her family fallen on hard times now? They can't even afford a pair of hairpins or rings. How shabby they are." Kang clenched her handkerchief tightly, feeling very bad.
