Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First

Chapter 53 Song Hejin's lethality

After returning to her parents' home, Su Xinqing lived a comfortable life in the marquis' mansion with Banyue and Qiuyue.

Except for the next day, Banyue brought back dinner and said that the Crown Prince and Concubine Su had rarely left the Crown Prince's Mansion and went to the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion yesterday.

The Crown Prince and Concubine Su left only after lunch.

Almost everyone in the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion came out to see him off, and the new son-in-law of the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion, the eldest son of the prefect's family, was very much favored by the prince, and they talked for quite a while.

Su Xinqing was still surprised when she heard the news that Banyue brought back.

She had never expected that Su Xinya would return home, otherwise she would simply not return home to avoid getting into trouble.

What's more, Su Xinya was pregnant, and if anything happened to her, she wouldn't be able to afford the compensation.

However, Su Xinqing's worries are not without reason.

The next day, when she got up again, the marquis's wife called her over to ask about the situation.

"Did you do anything that you shouldn't have done yesterday in the Earl of Yong'an's mansion?" The Marquis's wife sat in the upper seat with a calm expression, wearing a dark blue Wu silk Guangling dress with straight stitches. The lower part of her dress swayed slightly, and it turned out to be a light blue slanting silk satin skirt with a large weave. On her ears were green and white woven jade rings.

At hand was a cup of fresh tea that had just been served by the servant. When she opened the lid of the cup, Su Xinqing, who was a dozen feet away, could vaguely smell the tea fragrance.

"Reporting to mother-in-law, my husband and I did not see my sister. My stepmother was not feeling well, so my husband and I went to the Song family for dinner early and did not stay in the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion for long." Su Xinqing answered truthfully.

After all, even if she didn't say it, if the marquis's wife wanted to know, she could just ask the coachman and find out.

Hearing Su Xinqing's answer, the Marquis's wife was not displeased at all, but instead breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, you can go to school with Concubine Su, but after all, your status is different. Don't force yourself to get close to her, otherwise if something happens, our Zhenbei Marquis Mansion will also be implicated, understand?"

"Yes, mother-in-law!" Tang Jinxia answered obediently, and she did not have the intention of disobeying Madam Yuan as she did on the first day.

Madam Hou inexplicably looked at Su Xinqing today, feeling somewhat favorable to her, and continued to ask, "I heard that you and the Song family are related?"

"Yes, the Song family is my aunt's family."

"Who is Song Hejin to you?"

"My daughter-in-law's cousin." Thinking of her cousin's handsome appearance yesterday, Su Xinqing thought that her cousin was popular. However, she didn't expect that there would be people who wanted to find out about her cousin wherever he went.

This is what is called "no one knows about your hard work, but once you pass the imperial examination, everyone will know about it." The value of this should not be too high.

In response to Su Xinqing's answer, Madam Hou raised her eyelids, glanced at her, and said lightly: "When you are free, you can also post a message to invite your aunt to come to our house."

"Yes, thank you, mother-in-law. I understand." Seeing Chu Baozhu, the youngest legitimate daughter of the Yuan family, standing behind the Marquis's wife, it was the first time she met her.

I saw Chu Baozhu, with smiling eyes and beautiful eyes that were full of thoughts and thoughts. When I looked closely, I found that she was a person who made me feel pity for her.

She wore a lotus-colored satin dress with a scroll painting of Dongfang Shuo stealing peaches, and a satin skirt with a pattern of double-dwelling couples. Her hair was adorned with ruby-encrusted hairpins, and she wore a pink and purple half-moon sash with water waves around her waist, from which hung a sachet with a golden crabapple pattern.

Even though he stood there without saying anything, his unnecessary movements were hard to ignore.

My eyes met Su Xinqing's. Her eyes were smiling, and her smile became even more gentle.

Su Xinqing couldn't help but think of Su Xinya.

"Sister-in-law, why are you looking at me like that? Please forgive me, Third sister-in-law. I was not feeling well during the days when you came home, so I didn't come out to see anyone. I'd better not be offended, sister-in-law." Chu Baozhu walked out from behind the Marquis's wife, bowed to Su Xinqing, and explained generously and gently.

It seemed that she did not have any of the nobility that a lady from a marquis's family should have, but was more approachable.

It is rare that he can be so polite to Su Xinqing, his illegitimate sister-in-law.

When Shen Ruyan saw her sister-in-law's attitude, her eyes couldn't help but fall on Su Xinqing.

She had sent a letter yesterday to criticize her cousin, and the content of her cousin's reply made her even more angry.

She said that she didn't know Su Xinqing's character, but she thought that she was a helpless illegitimate daughter and would be easier to control. However, she didn't expect that the other party didn't care about anything and didn't have her aunt to restrain her, making her even more difficult to control.

"What you said is ridiculous, little sister. You must have never seen someone as gentle and elegant as you, so you were distracted for a moment. Don't you think so?" Shen Ruyan joked with a smile, her eyes full of contempt for Su Xinqing.

Originally a concubine's daughter, if it weren't for the mother-in-law needing a concubine's daughter to match Sanlang.

How could someone as humble as Su Xinqing enter the Marquis's Mansion and become the first lady?

But such a person, after entering the Marquis' Mansion, was not honest. On the first day after entering the Mansion, he started to scheme wildly. He is really bold.

"Sister-in-law, you are teasing Baozhu again. Third sister-in-law has been following Concubine Su since she was a child, so she has extraordinary knowledge. She has even met the nobles in the palace. How can Baozhu compare with them?" Chu Baozhu said shyly.

"The nobles in the palace are nobles, and Sister Baozhu is also very blessed. What's more, Sister is the apple of her mother's eye. Even if she gets married in the future, I will probably have to see her every day. How can I let Sister enter the deep palace? I will hold her in the palm of my hand and cherish her. If a young man from some family marries Sister in the future, it will be the best luck." At this point, Shen Ruyan and Chu Baozhu, the mother-in-law, seemed to have telepathic insights, and at the same time, they looked at Su Xinqing who seemed to be fine.

Seeing that the man was standing there with his head lowered and eyes downcast, and had no intention of talking to him, both of them froze in expression.

Chu Baozhu pursed her lips slightly and wanted to speak, but was stopped by the Marquis's wife.

"Third sister-in-law, you haven't spoken for such a long time. Are you worried about something? Or do you disagree with what my eldest sister-in-law said?" Seeing the look in her mother-in-law's eyes, Shen Ruyan consciously took over the topic.

"No, Xinqing also thinks that Sister Baozhu is excellent in both appearance and character." Su Xinqing replied calmly.

When Shen Ruyan heard Su Xinqing's answer, she was really furious.

Whatever she asked, the other party answered without saying a word, so how could she continue the conversation?

Her face froze and she glanced at Chu Baozhu. She didn't understand why everyone wanted to get involved with the Song family?

The same goes for Yuan's cousin Yuan Jingzhen, who is said to have been making a lot of noise at home recently.

At this moment Chu Baozhen also looked at her mother-in-law. One was her niece from her mother's side, and the other was her own biological daughter.

Judging from the expression of the mother-in-law, it seems that she doesn't know about the Yuan family's affairs. If she wasn't close to her cousin Lezhen, she probably wouldn't know about Jingzhen's affairs.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't work out. If it does, the two girls will become enemies.

Thinking of this, Shen Ruyan got a headache.
