After rebirth, dribbling and leaving

Chapter 181: Relatives Visit the Marquis’ Mansion

Su Qingling watched the performance of the father and son, sneered, and just watched them perform quietly!

Suddenly, a servant came outside the door and said that someone from the old home wanted to see the lady!

Liu Diejing frowned and said, "Who else can be in our hometown now? Could he be a liar? Don't you see what the situation is today? I won't see you!"

The servant was embarrassed: "Please go and have a look, the gatekeeper has chased them away several times, but those people are dressed like beggars and refuse to leave. They can be said to be your relatives. If you don't see them, they will come every day!"

Su Qingling pursed her lips. Very good, the big show is about to begin. She smiled and said:

"Forget it. It will take a while to sort out the dowry. I think we should send the outsiders away first. Otherwise, if anyone tries to marry you, even a beggar will become a relative of your mansion in the future!"

Lord Xie frowned. He knew that he had no relatives in his hometown. As for Liu's relatives, Meng Fang should know them all. He was afraid that someone really wanted to pretend to be a relative and get free food and drinks!

He snorted coldly and ordered the servants outside: "Go, drive them away. What's the point of our mansion? They've cheated me out of food and drink!"

The man hurried outside to give orders, and before anyone in the hall could even start a discussion, the servant came running over in a panic:

"My Lord, please go and have a look. Those people are making a scene and refusing to leave. They are also shouting that our mansion is using people to help us and then turning its back on us. Now, there are already a lot of people gathered outside the door!"

Lord Xie felt a tightness in his chest at this moment, his eyes turned stern and he shouted, "Go out and take a look!" Then Shao Yesian went out, and the others hurriedly followed him and went to the gate together!

At this moment, four people, one man and three women, were crying and complaining about the evil deeds of the Marquis' Mansion in dishevel! The man was about fourteen or fifteen years old, and looked handsome and capable, but now he had a bitter look on his face and covered his injured arm without saying a word to protect the three women!

The other two women were about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, both had their hair tied up in buns, their faces were covered with tears, and they were crying to the crowd:

"Is there any justice in the world? We have been the wet nurse for Magistrate Xie's child for four or five years, and we even left our families behind to follow him back to the capital. We have no credit, but we have worked hard. But we were told a while ago that we should be paid first, and that the young lady and young master had other plans!"

"We thought that the young master had finally returned home, and we were happy for them, and we were also happily preparing to return home!"

One of them said, "We originally thought that County Magistrate Xie and his wife would not ruin their reputation for these few coins. Who could have imagined that we were chased and killed after we had only walked halfway! Woo woo woo..."

The woman was crying so hard that she couldn't speak. This shocking news made the crowd squeeze forward. Some curious people asked:

"What happened next?"

The clever girl, who was about 11 or 12 years old, also cried but spoke eloquently: "Later, we happened to meet a group of merchants passing by with guards. Those guards saved us. We were unwilling to accept the fate, so we secretly returned to Beijing to seek an explanation!"

"Oh, don't talk nonsense. I haven't heard that the master of the Xie family has any children, and the eldest mistress of the Xie family didn't go with him to take up the post. Is there any hidden story behind this?"

There were many different opinions. Marquis Xie brought Xie Xuanping to the gate of the mansion, and Liu Diejing was also supported by Aunt Ke and went outside!

Before they could react, the two women cried out and knelt down in front of Xie Xuanping and burst into tears:

"Sir, you can't just abandon us. We just want to go back to our hometown and live a peaceful life. We haven't told anyone about your affair with the young mistress!"

The other woman was quick-witted and spotted Madam Hou and Aunt Ke at the side. She knelt forward and grabbed their skirts, begging:

"Madam, Madam, please let us go. We all have parents and children to take care of. We don't want to die!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar. Someone who was curious shouted:

"Thank you, Lord. When did your young mistress change? Isn't the eldest lady of the Su family your eldest young mistress?"

"Yes, how come there are four or five-year-old kids in office? Isn't that young lady your concubine? Why is it so confusing?"

"I heard from the two of them that you both have young ladies and young masters who are four or five years old. What about the two children? I haven't heard that Miss Su has given birth to children that old?"

Lord Xie was feeling dizzy at this moment, but he couldn't faint. He glared at Liu Diejing and her son, but he couldn't say a word!

Just as Xie Xuanping was about to ask the palace soldiers to invite the people into the palace, he heard a voice like breaking jade:

"I was wondering why you tried to harm me time and again, and you kept urging me to adopt the siblings. It turns out that they are your children!... The older of the two children is already four years old, which proves that you and I had them before we got married..."

Su Qingling smiled coldly, his eyes full of hatred: "You were having an affair with someone, and at the same time you tricked me into agreeing to the marriage...Xie Xuanping, you are so despicable, is this how you play tricks on our Xin'an Marquis Mansion?"

Xie Xuanping's face turned pale, and he could only make a pale excuse out of guilt:

"Ling'er...you misunderstood me..."

"You bold scoundrel! Our lady has already divorced you. Don't you know how to use polite language?" Xia He scolded coldly!

Soon, people came up with another big news: "What happened? Miss Su and Mr. Xie got divorced? When did it happen?"

"Oh my, Miss Su is still living in the mansion, it must be a new thing! I guess Mr. Xie is anxious to get his blood back, and can't wait to divorce Miss Su!"

At this moment, Su Qingling was pregnant and stood stubbornly outside the house. Her little face was full of disbelief. She was out of tune with the Xie family and seemed cold and lonely, which made people feel distressed!

"Xie Xuanping, today I want to get my dowry back. You mentioned the two children you asked me to buy back again. Could it be that they are really related to you?"

Xie Xuanping thought that something was wrong. If he admitted it in public, his conspiracy against the Xin'an Marquis Mansion would be confirmed!

Thinking of this, he felt his face burning, and his face was filled with anxiety. Just as he was about to deny it, Aunt Ke rushed forward:

"Ms. Su, all the mistakes are my fault, but those two children are innocent, so please let them go!"

Aunt Ke was as frail as a willow in the wind, and her words were full of tears, which made people feel sorry for her. So someone softened their hearts and advised:

"Yes, Miss Su, the child is innocent, please forgive him when you can. Please be magnanimous and let the child go!"

There were also those who knew better, sneering: "Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue? Didn't you hear that Miss Su bought those two children? Since they are her slaves, they are her private property. Why can you let them go just like that?"

"Yes, Miss Su did not fall for their trick, otherwise, these two children would have become the adopted young lady and young master of the Xie family!"
