Chen Juncai admired Liu Yueru. She had the talent and virtue of a woman, as well as the courage and steadiness of a man, and she was perfect in her conduct.

He also wanted to know from Liu Yueru why the child, whom he had painstakingly taught for several years, suddenly decided to hire another famous teacher.

It would be fine if you just leave, but the prince is going around ruining his reputation.

"If Madam doesn't give me, Chen, an explanation for this matter, I will never get along with the Marquis' Mansion for the rest of my life!" Chen Juncai also made his attitude clear.

Liu Yueru made a gesture of invitation and said humbly: "The Marquis' Mansion was wrong in the first place. Teacher Chen, rest assured that justice is in the hearts of the people."

She asked the servants to prepare clean and suitable clothes for Chen Juncai, and instructed the servants to help him wash and dress.

After Chen Juncai's back disappeared, Liu Yueru bowed to the crowd and apologized: "The prince got drunk today and made such a joke. Please forgive me and pretend that I didn't see this today."

After saying that, she asked Mother Yan to distribute the silver melon seeds that she had prepared in advance to everyone present.

After taking care of these people, Liu Yueru returned to the reception room.

At this time, Song Nanzhi was sitting in the chair below Old Madam Song.

Seeing Liu Yueru's figure, she was furious and asked, "Now it's your husband who is being criticized. Instead of helping me first, you helped outsiders and announced to the public that I was drunk?"

"I got drunk and acted crazy and fought with my own private teacher. If this gets out, how will my colleagues view me?" Song Nanzhi accused angrily.

Liu Yueru looked at Song Nanzhi with a cold gaze, and found his stupid and ignorant appearance extremely ridiculous!

"My husband, do you understand that a teacher is a father for life?" Liu Yueru opened her red lips.

"Of course!" Song Nan knew.

"But what does that have to do with me?"

"Filial piety comes first nowadays. If my husband had not been drunk today and had fought with Teacher Chen, how would the world view my husband? The world would only say that my husband is a person who does not even observe filial piety, so how can he be responsible for the important affairs of the court?" Liu Yueru woke the dreamer up with one word.

Song Nanzhi suddenly realized.

"I don't know why my husband was so impulsive and rash as to fight with Teacher Chen." Liu Yueru no longer indulged him and questioned him directly.

Song Nanzhi was already full of anger and grievance, and when Liu Yueru humiliated him, his face immediately turned pale.

"Why? If he hadn't stopped me, I would have invited Teacher Wang back home today. His actions are going to ruin Jin'er's future, and I'm so angry." Song Nanzhi said as a matter of course.

Liu Yueru smiled: "Just because you are angry with your husband, you can act so rashly. Do you know that if this matter gets out, no one will dare to come to the Marquis' Mansion to teach in the future, and your career will be hindered everywhere. The Marquis' Mansion will become the target of public criticism."

Song Nanzhi really didn't think much about it. How could he know that running a marquisate would require so many twists and turns.

Old Madam Song was aware of the seriousness of the matter.

He also helped Liu Yueru and said, "You were indeed too reckless in this matter. You should apologize to Teacher Chen later."

"It was obviously his fault first, why should I apologize?" Although Song Nanzhi was also worried about obstacles in his career, his self-esteem would not allow him to bow to anyone.

"You don't have to apologize. From now on, no one in the capital will dare to come to the Marquis' Mansion to teach the child. Jin'er will also be ostracized by his classmates when he goes to school. When the emperor knows that our Mansion treats our respected teacher like this, he will no longer have a good impression of him. You'd better give up the idea of ​​accompanying him to study as soon as possible." Liu Yueru said in a firm tone.

"I just don't believe he has such great ability to make those famous teachers listen to him." Song Nanzhi didn't believe in evil.

"Nonsense." Old Madam Song slammed her hand heavily on the table in anger.

"It's already this late, and you're still upset. Do you have to cut off Jin Ge'er's path before you're satisfied?"

Yuan Qinglian, who had been eavesdropping outside, couldn't help but run out.

"Yes, cousin, what the madam said makes sense. You just need to be obedient, for Jin'er and for your own sake." Yuan Qinglian pleaded pitifully.
