Reborn to be replaced? Remarried to the royal palace, raising children and training husband
Chapter 75 Strict Discipline
Although Gu Qinlan's words were gentle, they contained a weight that could not be ignored, enough for everyone around her to hear them clearly.
Originally, there were voices of accusation against Gu Qinlian from the crowd, but as Gu Qinlan finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Oh, they haven't even gotten married yet, but they already have a concubine and illegitimate children, and the bride hasn't raised any objections. This is truly a model of virtue."
"Isn't it? If it was my husband, he would have dealt with that concubine long ago."
"This young lady is just trying to protect the reputation of both families. She has done nothing wrong."
"Favoring the concubine and neglecting the principal wife is truly despicable."
"Indeed, how can the principal wife and the concubine be treated the same?"
Gu Qinlan listened to the discussions of the people around her, her eyebrows slightly raised and a satisfied smile revealed.
She certainly did it on purpose.
Previously, Hu Xinrong directed everyone's criticism towards Gu Qinlian with just a few words, and even damaged the reputation of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
If it is allowed to ferment, it will be a huge blow to the reputation of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.
The reputation of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion has been damaged, and her reputation as the eldest daughter of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion will also be difficult to preserve.
Now, everyone was speaking, and Ji Yinli's face became extremely ugly, sometimes blue and sometimes white.
Gu Qinlan's mention of favoring a concubine and killing his wife undoubtedly made Ji Yinli think of his father.
Ji Yinli's mother was originally just a concubine, but she was always superior to his stepmother.
Although Ji Yinli did not think there was anything wrong with his mother in the past, he always felt inferior about his status as a concubine's daughter, so he was determined to marry a legitimate daughter to improve his status.
However, Gu Qinlan's words seemed to trample on his dignity.
If it were someone else, Ji Yinli might have turned against him long ago.
But the person who said this was Gu Qinlan. As his elder aunt and with the support of Prince Duan's Mansion, it was naturally inconvenient for him to argue too much.
Besides, Gu Qinlan's purpose was just to make him apologize...
Ji Yinli looked at Gu Qinlan, his lips moved slightly, and finally he bowed to her solemnly:
"Eldest sister...your teachings are very true. Since I have already married a wife, I will naturally respect and love her. How could I possibly do something like favoring a concubine and abandoning my wife?"
Gu Qinlan looked at Ji Yinli expressionlessly.
Her understanding of Ji Yinli can be said to be deep.
Although he has mediocre talent, he is good at introspection and submission.
When you are strong, he will respect you and avoid you, but when you lose your usefulness, his true nature will be revealed and he will hurt you and frame you.
Just like in her previous life, she had supported Ji Yinli on the road to success, but when her family encountered difficulties, he broke off relations with her without hesitation.
At this moment, Gu Qinlan was secretly thinking in her heart, without her support in this life, could Ji Yinli still achieve the status he had in his previous life?
Despite all the confusion in her mind, Gu Qinlan had a kind smile on her face:
"This princess naturally has full faith in the character of my brother-in-law. People all praise my sister-in-law for her noble character and her ability to correct her mistakes. This is naturally a good thing."
Hu Xinrong, who was standing aside, cast a look full of resentment at Gu Qinlan at this moment.
The methods of this Princess Duan are indeed much more clever than those of that fool Gu Qinlian!
With just a few words, he successfully restored Gu Qinlian's reputation.
However, since she intentionally let Gu Qinlian come to provoke her, it would be impossible for her to leave unscathed!
Otherwise, she will not be able to become the young lady of the second branch of the Ji family!
A complex wave flashed across Hu Xinrong's eyes, and then she slowly knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply to Gu Qinlan, with a tone of pleading and determination:
"Princess Duan, although I was born in a humble family, I gave birth to a descendant for the Ji family. Even if I have done nothing in return, I have contributed, right?"
"However, the young lady slapped me in the face. Is this the so-called etiquette and rules of the Marquis' Mansion?"
As Hu Xinrong spoke, tears quietly slid down her cheeks, making her look pitiful.
The two children beside her, Yan Shao and Yu Min, immediately cooperated and rushed to Hu Xinrong in tears:
"Wuwuwu, don't cry, mother. Yan Shao feels sorry for you."
"That vicious woman always bullies mother. Mother, let's go. Don't endure this kind of bullying anymore. Woo woo woo..."
Hu Xinrong's sad cries with her two children made Gu Qinlian's original reasoning untenable.
Gu Qinlian was both angry and anxious, and almost blurted out harsh words, but Gu Qinlan held her back in time.
Gu Qinlan looked down proudly at Hu Xinrong and her son who were kneeling on the ground and crying, then glanced at Gu Qinlian and spoke slowly:
"Second sister, it was indeed your fault that you slapped this concubine."
"You?" When Gu Qinlian heard Gu Qinlan's accusation, her eyes widened and she almost burst into a fierce rebuttal.
But when Gu Qinlan glanced at her coldly, all her dissatisfaction was instantly replaced by fear, and she swallowed it back into her stomach.
When Hu Xinrong heard Gu Qinlan's judgment, she couldn't help feeling a little proud.
Aren't you nobles the ones who are most particular about etiquette and rules?
Now you insult me for no reason. Is this the etiquette and decency you uphold?
After Gu Qinlan comforted Gu Qinlian, he turned to look at Hu Xinrong, with a somewhat sarcastic smile on his face:
"Second sister's behavior this time was indeed inappropriate. Even if this concubine made a mistake, it is not your turn as the legal wife to punish her personally. Are the servants around you all wooden?"
Gu Qinlian was still angry at first, but after hearing this, the anger in her heart gradually dissipated. She even glanced at Hu Xinrong with some pride, and rarely showed weakness to Gu Qinlan:
"It was indeed my fault."
Hu Xinrong looked up in surprise and looked at Gu Qinlan in disbelief, thinking to herself: Didn't we agree to be polite? Is this the rule of your mansion?
Gu Qinlan didn't care about Hu Xinrong's thoughts. She glanced at the two children who were glaring at her fiercely, frowned slightly, and turned to look at Ji Yinli:
"These two children are the masters of the Ji Mansion after all. How can they call a concubine mother like this? They are so disrespectful to their stepmother. Did you condone this?"
As soon as Gu Qinlan finished speaking, Hu Xinrong's face turned pale instantly and she looked at Gu Qinlan in horror.
Ji Yinli quickly explained, trying to distance himself from the matter:
"Eldest sister, calm down. It is because they lacked a stepmother that they are so rude. I will definitely discipline them strictly when I return."
Gu Qinlan nodded slightly and continued in a relaxed tone:
"A child's upbringing can be very different in just one day. Brother-in-law, you need to act quickly."
"Yes, I will have someone send Yan Shao and Yu Min to the main courtyard after I return." Ji Yinli understood Gu Qinlan's hint and agreed immediately. He then turned to Gu Qinlian and said flatteringly:
"When the time comes, I'll have to trouble you, Madam."
Gu Qinlian was reluctant at first, but when she saw Hu Xinrong's distorted face, her mood suddenly improved and she readily agreed:
"Of course, as the legal mother, I will naturally raise the children well. These are my husband's flesh and blood, so they are naturally my children."
