After all, she is her own biological daughter. These days, Su Qin has been worried that Su Qingwan will be bullied.

After all, her son-in-law is really not a good person.

Seeing the worry in her mother's eyes, Su Qingwan felt warm in her heart. She knew that there were still people in the mansion who really cared about her.

She smiled and said:

"Fortunately! He is not as terrible as the rumors outside say."

Although she knew that her daughter was most likely trying to comfort her, Qin still felt relieved.

Thinking of what happened just now, Qin sighed and said:

"Don't blame your sister. She's in a difficult situation too."

What Qin was most worried about was that the two sisters would disagree over the marriage in the Marquis' Mansion.

"Mother, I know."

Su Qingwan spoke.

Not only did she not envy Qinghe, on the contrary, she was worried that she would be bullied by the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.

After a while, she decided to find a time to have a good talk with Qinghe.

Seeing that she really didn't seem to care, Qin felt relieved.

The two chatted privately for a while, and soon a maid came to tell them to go to the front hall for dinner.

In addition to the two people returning home today, Zhou Shulang and his mother were also there. However, the two families were close friends, so they did not sit in separate halls. They just used a screen to separate the man and woman, which made it more lively.

Su Qinghe was pulled to the side by the wife of Marquis Yongning and was praised continuously.

Su Qingwan couldn't find a chance to talk to her.

Su Qinghe looked at her sister apologetically.

Su Qingwan gave her a look that said don't worry, she knew Zhou Lan did it on purpose, wanting to make her envious.

However, she had already seen their true colors clearly, so how could she be envious?

The women were talking in low voices, while the men were speaking louder.

The Su family has few descendants, and the second uncle has been sent out to serve as an official, so there is only the eldest branch of the family in the capital.

In addition to my mother, my father also had three concubines.

The mother only has her and Qinghe, and no son.

Aunt Zhou gave birth to Su Qinglan and Su Qingming, a brother and sister, while the other two concubines had no children.

Su Qingming is the only male in the eldest wife's family. Even though he is a concubine's son, his status in the mansion is quite high. This is why Aunt Zhou, as a concubine, has been able to suppress his mother in every way over the years.

Through the screen, Su Qingwan clearly heard that her father and brother were surrounding Zhou Shulang, while ignoring her brother-in-law Yan Mingjue.

Yan Mingjue is now just a small inspector of the Eagle House. Naturally, he cannot be compared with Zhou Shulan, the newly crowned top scholar and the prince of the Marquisate.

Su Qingwan knew that her father was greedy for fame and fortune, but this was a bit too much.

She didn't think Yan Mingjue was a magnanimous person, and she was afraid that he would not be kind to her father when he came to power.

She was thinking about how to save the situation when she heard Su Qinglan say:

"Big sister, why do you look a little tired? I guess there are too many things for you to take care of in the mansion."

She was trying to make fun of Su Qingwan by saying this. After all, everyone knew that there were many concubines in the Yan family.

As soon as Su Qinglan said this, everyone at the table, except Qin who glared at her fiercely, either had no expression or looked at Su Qingwan with an expression as if they were watching a good show.

Su Qingwan heard this and said slowly:

"Being married is naturally different from being a girl. Being a mistress of a house is a lot more work!"

"However, Third Sister cannot experience this kind of hardship. When Third Sister moves into the Fourth Prince's residence in the future, all matters in the residence will be handled by the Fourth Prince's Consort, and Third Sister will not be burdened at all."

"I'm so envious, sis!"
