A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

After Jinsong finished speaking, Hai looked at Su Chengye, "This girl said it clearly, and big brother should have heard it clearly. Catch the thief and seize the stolen goods. Aunt Zeng can't wrongly accuse the maid next to me of stealing without any evidence."

"As for what happened the day before yesterday, I don't think it was a humiliation. Aunt Zeng asked me to come over, hoping that I could help take the pearl headdress to Prince Ning's mansion and give it to the newly married Princess Ning."

"Brother, do you think I should agree to Aunt Zeng's request when the Emperor personally visited Prince Ning's residence yesterday and there were so many court officials and ladies watching the ceremony?"

"I want to give the pearl headdress to my niece-in-law who just came in front of all the ladies and say it was given by the concubine of the Marquis' Mansion?"

Hai's questions made Su Chengye's face change. Hai did nothing wrong. If she really agreed to Aunt Zeng, it would be a joke.

Hai continued, "I explained the matter to Aunt Zeng, but Aunt Zeng thought it was a humiliation. She even came to question me. I want to ask, are there any rules in this mansion?"

"A concubine who has given birth to a child can question the mistress of the house? Who gave her the courage?"

Hai was born in a noble family, and she was full of the arrogance of a scholar. She had endured the old lady's harassment in the past because of her filial piety and upbringing, but that didn't mean anyone could climb over her head and bully her.

But obviously, saying this to Aunt Zeng was like talking to a cow.

Aunt Zeng didn't notice that Su Chengye's face had turned dark, nor did she understand the deeper meaning of Hai's words.

She knelt on the ground and cried, "Madam, Lord. I am the Sixth Young Master's biological mother after all. If you don't give me an explanation today, I... I will not live."

When she said the last sentence, she cried even more sadly.

Zeng Yi Niang's father ran two taverns in the capital, and his life was much better than that of ordinary people. He had two concubines in his house, and they often fought for favor.

This trick of crying, making a scene and then hanging oneself is a common trick used by concubines in the mansion. Although it is not very polite, it is effective.

But the rich and powerful always pay attention to keeping things decent. Aunt Zeng's behavior can only make people more disgusted.

Su Qingyu couldn't help but ask in a cold voice: "What does Aunt Zeng want to do?"

She kept calling him the Sixth Young Master. Wasn't it because she wanted to rise to prominence by relying on the fact that she gave birth to the eldest son? But what Aunt Zeng didn't know was that her dirty deeds were no secret.

For some reason, Aunt Zeng shuddered subconsciously when she heard Su Qingyu's cold tone.

Then he said, "We have to search to find out whether she took it or not. I think it would be better to search Qingyinyuan to prove her innocence."

Qingyin Garden is the residence of the third wife. Searching Qingyin Garden is tantamount to humiliating the third wife.

Aunt Zeng said this just to humiliate Hai. As for the headgear, she had someone hide it in the bushes in the garden. When the search was over, they would find it and the matter would be over with just a misunderstanding.

Su Qingyu laughed out of anger. This Aunt Zeng really didn't know her place and dared to say anything.

It is really a fantasy for a concubine to want to step on the third wife, the head of the family, to find a sense of existence for herself.

But where is that headgear now? Could it be placed in Qingyinyuan?

Su Qingyu turned her head and gave Feicui a look. The master and servant had been together for many years, and Feicui could understand what she meant at a glance.

While everyone was not noticing, Feicui quietly retreated, walked out of the hall, and walked quickly towards Qingyin Garden.

Su Qingyu in the room sneered, "Search? What if nothing is found? If nothing is found, is Aunt Zeng willing to commit suicide to express her guilt?"

Aunt Zeng was stunned. If they find out what’s going on, they’re going to let her commit suicide?

She looked at Su Chengye aggrievedly again, "My Lord, the eldest lady also wants my life. Is it because of this child that the eldest lady treats me like this?"

Su Qingyu glanced at Aunt Zeng's expression and knew that she didn't deliver the things to Qingyin Garden, probably because she didn't have the ability to do so.

Several masters also frowned at this moment, especially the third master Su Chengxun. However, due to the face of the eldest brother, they could not interrupt.

He, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, "Miss, you are joking. How can you take someone's life casually?"

"I see that Aunt Zeng is so confident in what she said, so why not search for it? We have to find out where the things are and get to the bottom of the matter."

"This isn't a humiliation, so don't take it personally, Third Sister-in-law."

Su Qingyu couldn't stand He's despicable behavior of taking advantage of the situation, so she snorted and said, "Since the things were lost in the mansion, don't just search Qingyin Garden. Why not search the whole mansion, Qingyin Garden, Qixia Garden, Songhe Hall, all of them."

Since it was He who started the conversation, Su Qingyu also looked at He when she spoke.

She saw a hint of panic suddenly appear in He's eyes, but soon returned to normal.

Su Qingyu was suspicious. Why was it that when the search was mentioned, Third Aunt didn't panic, but Second Aunt did?

He spoke again, "It's not good to make a big fuss. We can't cause unrest in the whole house. In my opinion, it's better to look for it in Aunt Zeng's courtyard and Qingyin Garden first."

Su Qingyu's mind moved slightly, and she became interested in why He was in such a panic.

"Second Aunt is right. We have to get to the bottom of this. Aunt Zeng is the Sixth Young Master's biological mother, and Third Aunt is also the head lady of our Su family. It would be bad for anyone to be wronged."

"How about this, let Madam Yuan take people to search each courtyard one by one."

"Right or wrong, let's see what happens."

Aunt Zeng froze on the ground for a moment, not understanding how the whole house could be searched. Wouldn't she be a criminal? She wanted to humiliate Hai, but she didn't want to cause unrest in the whole house.

But once Su Qingyu made her decision, not only Aunt Zeng, but even Mrs. He and the old lady were powerless to stop her.

Of course, He didn't want anyone to search, so she advised the old lady, "Mother, this is not a big deal, why make it known to everyone. Today is the first time that the eldest grandson's wife of the Su family is visiting, so don't make a fool of yourself."

After persuading the old lady, He went on to persuade Su Chengye and his brothers, repeating the same words over and over again.

It's nothing more than trying to keep the peace and not embarrass yourself in front of the new daughter-in-law.

Su Yuanzhou, who had been sitting there without saying anything, suddenly chuckled and spoke.

"Second Aunt, you are worrying too much. Yue'er is the daughter-in-law of the Su family, so naturally she wants the best for the Su family. It's just checking some trivial matters in the inner house, it's not a joke or not."

"Why not let the people brought by Prince Ning's Mansion today help investigate. They are impartial and will surely conduct a fair search."

Su Yuanzhou didn’t know what Su Qingyu was thinking, but his sister must have her reasons for what she said.

After hearing what Su Yuanzhou said, the old lady and Su Chengye did not say anything in rebuttal.

The search was handed over to Madam Yuan, who used people from Songhe Hall, and also had help from people from Prince Ning's Mansion.

Su Qingyu took advantage of He's inattention and quietly told Zhenzhu about this.

"You and Chuntao go to Qixiayuan where the second wife lives and search the second wife's house carefully for me."

"I see that she looks unhappy. There must be something shameful in her room."
