After leaving Songhe Hall, Su Shunci's face was tense.

He also muttered: "I'm disrespectful to you, but I won't be ashamed to tell you."

What the old lady said, trying to get Lin Wanyin to agree to this made Su Shunci feel a little uneasy.

What will they think of? If some dirty tricks were used to force the mother to come back in the end, it would probably be worse than death for the mother.

Su Shunci thought about it and felt that she could not sit still and wait for death.

She first returned to her small study, picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and told her maid Jinyun, "Send this letter to the Shen family and hand it into the hands of the eldest sister personally."

He thought for a while and then said: "The little beggar who always came to our shop to beg for food is called Xiaodouzi. Give him some copper coins and let him stare at his father outside the house every day. Tell me where my father has gone in time."

Jinyun was blessed, took the letter and left.

In the Shen family's inner residence, Su Qingyu heard that Princess Rongjun was coming. She got up from the study and went into the inner room to change her clothes.

"Princess Rongjun has said something, what is it?"

"I said I was thinking about the eldest lady, so I came here to take a look and brought a lot of supplements."

Su Qingyu sneered. Shen Wu had been in confinement at the Shen family for almost half a month. Prince Rongjun came to visit every few days, but Princess Rongjun came to visit her for the first time.

If you really miss me, why did you come now?

However, she was not interested in the Rong family's affairs, and Shen Wu was doing it himself.

Just after she changed her clothes, Zhenzhu came in and reported, "Madam, Jinyun, who is with the fourth young lady, is here."

Su Qingyu went out of the inner room after hearing this. Jinyun was standing in the corridor when he saw her come out and bowed.

"Hello, Miss. This is a letter from our Fourth Miss."

Su Qingyu took the letter from Jinyun, opened it and read it at a glance.

The more he looked at it, the darker his face became, and the knuckles on his fingers that were holding the edge of the letter turned a little white from the exertion.

"Tell Miss Four that I have an idea."

After Jinyun left, Su Qingyu thought about it and decided to go to Yushu Alley tomorrow. A few days ago, Lin Wuchen called two maids who knew martial arts from her hometown in Yunzhou. She wanted to go back and give her instructions again.

After calming down, Su Qingyu left the West Courtyard and went to Qingyuan Residence.

When she entered, the old lady was talking to Princess Rongjun, and Li Chaoyun sat beside her.

When Su Qingyu entered the house, she bowed to Princess Rongjun first. According to their in-law relationship, she and Princess Rongjun were the same generation. But the other party was a genuine princess, and she couldn't avoid this gift.

Princess Rong was less than 40 years old, wearing a rose purple jacket with persimmon and ruyi patterns, and a skirt with woven gold flying birds and flowers. She wore a set of gold and gemstone headpiece on her head, and a thumb-thick red gold bracelet with jade on her hand.

Sunlight filtered in through the window lattice. Su Qingyu faced the light and was almost dazzled.

"Is this the third wife of the Shen family? They have been married for so long and there has been no movement. This small body looks like it is not easy to have children."

Princess Rongjun said and looked Su Qingyu up and down.

While talking, he stroked the big gold bracelet on his hand, as if he was afraid that others would not see it.

Su Qingyu laughed twice and did not answer.

This Princess Rongjun, like Prince Rongjun, was born in the countryside. When Prince Rong was making military exploits, Princess Rong was still selling pork in the countryside.

So even though she has been a princess in Beijing for many years, she still can't change her habit of wearing gold and silver and speaking regardless of the occasion.

Fortunately, Prince Rong knew how to understand the holy will. The more the couple seemed to know nothing, the more favored the emperor was. Among the princes with different surnames who accompanied the late emperor on the battlefield, it was the Prince of Rong County who was living the best life now.

The old lady frowned slightly. Every time she spoke to the princess, she was always on tenterhooks, fearing that she would say something embarrassing.

As long as there are some rules, who would judge in public whether someone else's daughter-in-law has a good childbirth or not? This is a wealthy family, not a village in the countryside under a tree.

If it hadn't been for the marriage granted by the emperor, the Shen family would never have married their daughter into the Rong family.

What Princess Rongjun wanted to say was interrupted by the old lady's words.

"Don't you still want to see Wu'er, Princess? I just want my third daughter-in-law and Chao Yun to accompany you."

Su Qingyu knew that the old lady was impatient to deal with her, so she stood up and said: "Princess, please, the eldest lady will be happy to know that you are coming."

Princess Rongjun hummed, stood up and walked out. He was cold and indifferent to Su Qingyu, but greeted Li Chaoyun with a smile.

In her heart, Li Chaoyun was the daughter of the current princess, a phoenix on a golden branch.

As for Su Qingyu, she despised him from the bottom of her heart. Li Chaoyun said the last time he went to the Rong family, Mrs. Shen San's housekeeper was in a mess. If it weren't for her lack of ability, her Rong family's grandson wouldn't have died like this.

It was said in the capital that Mr. Shen was afraid of his wife, and she had even asked Prince Rong about it. At that time, Prince Rong smiled and said it was unbelievable. How could someone like Shen Zhixiu be controlled by a woman.

Today, when she saw that she was just a teenage girl, she didn't think highly of her.

On the way to see Shen Wu, Princess Rongjun and Li Chaoyun chatted eagerly. Su Qingyu wanted to be quiet and didn't say much on the side.

Not long after, the three of them led the maid and mother-in-law into the courtyard where Shen Wu was resting.

As soon as they entered the inner room, Princess Rongjun curled her lips in disgust, "This bed curtain is too plain. After a miscarriage, it would be auspicious to hang a red curtain with hundreds of children and grandchildren."

The corner of Su Qingyu's lips couldn't help but twitch twice. Her beautiful child had a miscarriage, and the mother was already sad. If you hang up the bright red curtain, you will probably have nightmares when you sleep at night.

How did Princess Rongjun say this?

Shen Wu, who was resting in bed, heard his mother-in-law's voice before he saw the person coming in. He habitually frowned, unable to conceal his disgust.

But he still managed to gather his energy and stood up to salute, "Mother is here." He nodded to Li Chaoyun again.

When he looked at Su Qingyu, his expression was startled, and then endless hatred burst out from his eyes.

"What are you doing here? Who asked you to come to my place?"

She already knew that her mother, Chen, had gone to the other courtyard, and she hated Su Qingyu so much that seeing her at this moment was like seeing an enemy.

Su Qingyu smiled lightly and said, "What the eldest lady said is strange. I am the head wife of the Shen family. Is there any place in this house that I can't go to?"

Li Chaoyun sat beside Shen Wu's bed and gave her a wink, signaling her not to confront Su Qingyu head-on.

Princess Rongjun originally looked down on Su Qingyu, but now seeing Shen Wu acting like this, she seemed to have found a reason to scold her.

"Why are you talking to your third aunt? You always talk about the rules. Is this how you abide by the rules?"

Shen Wu was startled, and then asked coldly: "Is there something wrong with my mother here today?"

Su Qingyu sat aside calmly. Today's matter had nothing to do with her, she just wanted to watch the excitement. As for whether Shen Wu hated her, she didn't take it seriously at all.

Li Chaoyun ordered someone to bring the brocade tea table and motioned for Princess Rongjun to sit down as well.

After Princess Rongjun sat down, she glared at Shen Wu with disgust.

"If you can't even save a child, what else can you do? The women in our village can still cut two acres of rice with a big belly."

It was also the first time for Su Qingyu to deal with this princess. Every time she said a word, Su Qingyu would exclaim in her heart, she is indeed the princess of Rongjun.

Li Chaoyun, who was sitting by the bed, retorted after hearing this: "Aunt Rong, the eldest sister is the spoiled daughter of the Shen family after all. She is not comparable to the women in your village."

Princess Rongjun sneered when she heard this, "What's the use of raising her up? It's so hard to give birth to a child."

Shen Wu's expression turned extremely ugly. Just as he was about to speak, Princess Rongjun continued.

"I don't count on you anymore. I came here just to tell you. I will take a concubine for Huairer in the next two days, and the candidates have been decided."

"They are the girls of my natal brother, your two cousins. They are strong and fertile, and they are all members of the Rong family. The children they will give birth to will be the legitimate sons of the Rong family."
