Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First

Everyone present knew that it was impossible to bring the aunt's tablet into the ancestral hall, or even find a place to worship it in Xiangguo Temple.

How could the wife, who is in charge of the household affairs, be willing to spend such a sum of money? It's a waste of money.

But it costs hundreds of taels of silver every month.

Several sisters-in-law of the Chu family have already picked up the cups on the table to hide the smiles on their faces.

As soon as Fang opened her mouth, everyone knew whose daughter the girl was.

In the past two years, Fang has also been a new upstart in the capital. Although she has no culture or rules of a lady from a noble family, many people look down on her, but there is nothing they can do about it because she is Song Hejin's mother.

I heard that the youngest son went to the border again and is now a ninth-rank Renyong Captain.

The two sons of the Song family, one literary and the other military, were veritable upstarts, and few of the women present did not know them.

However, this lady rarely goes out and only interacts with a few people, all of whom are from merchant families.

Although Yuan was used to bullying others in the mansion, she could control Su Xinqing but not Fang.

"Sister-in-law, it turns out that Aunt Song is a good concubine. Then what you did was wrong. The Third Miss's concubine has a better background than the Fourth Miss and the Fifth Miss. Why do you mothers ignore the Third Miss? The Muxue Courtyard where she lives is shabby and even the maids don't want to live there. Yet you gave it to the Third Miss?" Wei's face was full of smiles, and the gloating in her eyes was obvious.

"Shut up and don't say anything. I don't think you are dumb!" Li scolded.

But how could Wei listen to Li's reproaches? It was fine as she had her mother-in-law under pressure at home.

Now, but outside.

"Sister-in-law, are you angry because someone has revealed your and my brother's scandal? The Song family said that before Concubine Song became a concubine, she had already arranged a marriage. How come you later promoted Miss Song to be a concubine? At that time, my uncle already had many concubines, why did you force her? Aren't you a loving couple? How come there are so many concubines in such a big courtyard? I thought that only courtyards like ours where the couple are not harmonious would have so many concubines!"

Looking at the two sisters-in-law quarreling with each other, Yuan almost vomited blood.

She quickly took over the conversation: "Okay, okay, Second Madam, you are worrying too much. It's just that she took in a maid as her concubine. Why would she care so much? Besides, the First Madam is in charge of the entire Yong'an Earl's Mansion. She is very busy and negligent. You see, Su doesn't mind it, so why do you have to hold on to it, Second Madam?"

"Mother-in-law, you are wrong. As a concubine's daughter, it's okay for me to mind. You can't say that my stepmother inherited my mother's appearance and treated me badly after my aunt passed away, right? What's more, we were young, and my stepmother was already young and ugly at that time. It's common for her to be jealous of the aunts below her. As a concubine's daughter, I can understand it." Su Xinqing said lightly.

Mrs. He, her son and Mrs. Liu just wanted to come and visit Su Xinqing today.

I have never seen such a sharp-tongued person.

I don’t know why, but now a lot of rumors have entered the minds of several people.

The wife of Marquis Zhenbei fainted, the son of Marquis Zhenbei fell down innocently, and even the old lady left the table in anger.

It seemed that everything had been materialized, and when he looked at Li again, there was even sympathy in his eyes.

However, there must be something hateful about a pitiful person. He let a girl born to a concubine live in a shabby courtyard for more than ten years, and then he said to others that he was a gentle, generous and charitable person.

This guy has given himself a lot of face, and he looks really glamorous.

"Su Xinqing!" Li suddenly stood up and looked at the concubine's daughter opposite her.

I originally thought that he was just wild and unruly, but I didn't expect that he really didn't take the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion seriously.

Master Qian had a keen eye, but it was a pity that he did not get rid of this scourge earlier. Seeing the people around the other party, Li regretted it again. After that bitch died, he should have sent this little bitch away as well.

However, thinking of the real purpose of her visit, she tried to suppress the discomfort in her heart: "Your elder sister is now in the Prince's Mansion, and it is inconvenient for her to go out. As a younger sister, you should visit her often to maintain the friendship between you two sisters. Aunt Zhang has been away recently. No matter what you say, you have been taught the rules by Aunt Zhang for a few days together with your elder sister. You should burn some incense for Aunt Zhang when you are free. The Prince's Mansion will hold a hundred-day banquet for the two children in a few days. You and Chu Wei must go this time. Your father said that if you don't go, your father will expel you and your aunt from the Su family!"

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to care, Li regretted what he said.

This was equivalent to giving face to the concubine, but before she could regret it, she saw the little bitch actually laughed.

"Stepmother, I'm also giving you a favor. Ever since that day when my cousin, Meng Xiang, took me out of the Su family, I haven't been back. I thought my attitude was clear enough. I will never go back to your Yong'an Earl's Mansion. You can kick me and my mother out of the Su family if you want. I won't join in the fun anyway!" Su Xinqing also stood up. Shanlan and Banyue waited on her side carefully, fearing that something might happen. "As for the banquet at the Crown Prince's Mansion, I need to listen to my husband's opinion. If he wants to go, he can go. I won't go again. Sorry, mother-in-law..."

"Madam Marquis, the Third Young Master..." The little maid who came in to report hadn't finished her words.

Chu Wei, full of anger, rushed in with a team of Jinyiwei.

The women, brides, and girls who had been watching the show just now immediately hid behind the screen.

"Chu Wei, what are you doing?" When Yuan saw Chu Wei breaking into the main courtyard of the mistress of the house without notifying her, she immediately scolded him.

"Mother, what are you doing? I, Chu Wei's new bride, should stay in my Chu Mansion and take good care of your pregnancy. Why did you call people over here!" Chu Wei's voice was cold. He looked at the people from the Chu and Su families in the room. His deep eyes were like a sharp sword, shooting at everyone.

There was often a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth, but that smile had never touched his cold eyes.

The entire room was frozen by his anger, and the air was filled with a sense of solemnity and oppression.

It was also the first time that Yuan faced Chu Wei, who had such a murderous aura.

Looking at the other party's hand pressing on the knife, Yuan's voice was trembling: "She, Su is the daughter-in-law of our Chu family. As a mother-in-law, is it my fault if I call her over to ask her a few questions? I have finished asking questions, you can leave now."

"Mother-in-law? Since the family has already been separated, there is no need for you to put on airs as an elder. If it really doesn't work, just pretend that I am no longer a descendant of the Chu family!" The man looked at Yuan with a cold and serious face, without a trace of warmth in his eyes, as if he could make the other party even more unhappy if she said one more word he didn't like.

It was not until Su Xinqing was brought back to Chu Wei's own yard and settled down that Chu Wei took his men and headed out of the city alone.
