After crossing over, I am popular with both men and women

In the end, Shen Yong couldn't help but hold it in, and had to skip this rare big news and move on to the next one.

But the rest are just old stuff.

It's not that some old man in his seventies or eighties wants to outshine the crabapple tree.

Even Shen Yong himself was not interested in talking about someone's daughter-in-law asking for a divorce.

"Wait a minute, what did you say was the name of Minister Sun's daughter-in-law?" Su Qinchao suddenly put down the cup. He seemed to have heard that name somewhere before.

"Pang Liyi, what's wrong?"

"There doesn't seem to be an official with the surname Pang in Chang'an. Although Minister Sun is an official of the Ministry of Rites, he is still a fourth-rank official. Why would he choose a daughter-in-law with an obscure family background?" He remembered where he had heard this.

Xiao Tangyuan's female teacher, Madam Pang, was named Pang Lihui, which is only one character different from the daughter-in-law of the Sun family.

The names are so similar, there must be some connection between them, maybe they are sisters or something.

However, Madam Pang only married an ordinary scholar, while the Sun family is a fourth-rank official in Beijing, so it is hard to say.

"This is a long story. A few years ago, there was indeed a Chief Secretary of the Secretariat named Pang, but he died of illness before you came to Chang'an." Shen Yong knew everything about the family affairs of these officials in Chang'an City.

"Pang Zhushu had no sons, only two daughters, although later on Miss Pang picked up a scholar who had fled and adopted him as her son.

But after Pang Zhushu passed away, most of his wealth was swallowed up by his own family, leaving only the dowry that Mrs. Pang brought from her parents' home and a farm in the suburbs.

Now their family lives in that farm, and Miss Pang Da married the adopted son two years ago.

As for Miss Pang, she had been engaged to the youngest son of Minister Sun since she was young, so she married him after she reached the age of 15. At that time, people in Chang'an praised the Sun family for their kindness.

Shen Yong told everything he knew in one breath, then immediately picked up the teapot and poured the tea into his throat.

He just said so much that his mouth was dry.

"Since they are a kind family, why is Miss Pang wanting a divorce?" Su Qinchao was a little puzzled.

One is the daughter of an ordinary family who returned home after divorce, and the other is the wife of a fourth-rank official.

Everyone knows how to choose. Normally, most people would not do this unless there is something particularly unbearable.

"Didn't I just say that if you don't have children, your mother-in-law will have to take a concubine." Shen Yong remembered that he had said this when he talked about this matter before.

"She is the mistress, so what if she takes a concubine? The child will still be registered under her name and will never be hers." Su Qinchao shook his head. There must be some inside story that even Shen Yong didn't know.

After living in this era for so many years, he discovered that ancient mistresses were generally not as resistant to their husbands taking concubines as modern people think.

In ancient times, people valued having many children and being blessed. Without concubines, the mistress had to take on the responsibility of reproducing offspring herself.

Basically, they just keep giving birth. That's what ordinary village women are like.

If she was unlucky, she might die during childbirth. Although concubines would be favored, they were also tools to bear the responsibility of reproduction for the mistress.

Moreover, a mistress with a family background generally does not live solely on the favor of a man.

The harem is her world, as long as she doesn't commit any unforgivable mistakes, such as being unfilial to her uncle and aunt, or having an affair.

The clan's etiquette and laws will always stand behind her, allowing her to rest assured for the rest of her life.

In addition, even if the illegitimate son becomes successful in the future and wants to ask for a title for his family, he cannot go beyond his stepmother. He must first ask for an imperial decree from his stepmother before it can be the turn of his biological mother.

That's why Su Qinchao didn't understand why Miss Pang Er insisted on getting a divorce.

"Anyway, this is the first-hand information I got, and Miss Pang has a rather aggressive personality." Shen Yong spread his hands. He didn't think what Miss Pang did was strange:

"But you, you didn't ask about so many things before, why did you suddenly ask about Miss Pang Er?"

"Miss Pang Da is my little Tang Yuan's teacher. She is just curious."

"is it?"

In fact, this is not the case. Su Qinchao is particularly interested in the affairs of Miss Pang Er. One reason is that Miss Pang, also known as Madam Pang, might be a time-traveling girl.

The second more popular one is Minister Sun. Although Minister Sun is just an ordinary Minister of Rites, the eldest daughter of his family is the most famous female official in front of the emperor.

At this time, Miss Pang Er suddenly made a choice that was completely different from other women of her time.

In addition to the possibility that he was influenced by the huge girl, he also felt that it might be related to something else.

I have heard Yunniang talk about Madam Pang many times. She seems to be a very reserved, dignified and extremely intelligent woman. Her every move is the pinnacle of women in the world.

She can fit into this world so perfectly, and she probably won't teach her sister those modern things that are unorthodox for this era.

...

The three people here were chatting animatedly.

Yunniang, who had just arranged for little Tangyuan to go to school, was sitting in the yard.

While playing with the colorful strings with her maid Xiaoyu, she watched Xingxian playing with Xiaomidou.

As the saying goes, two people can be different even if they sleep in the same bed.

In fact, Yunniang still likes Xingxian quite a lot.

It can be said that from the first time she saw Xingxian in the County Lady's Mansion, she couldn't help but feel pity for him.

Although she had tortured her husband for a whole night because of this, but, well...

She couldn't say for sure whether she did that because she was angry or because she was making an excuse...

In her entire life, she had never seen anyone more beautiful than Xingxian, or anyone who could compete with her.

Especially that delicate and extremely charming face, not to mention that of a husband.

Even she, a woman, often becomes distracted by the sight.

"Miss, Miss." Xiaoyu pushed her mistress's arm.

Alas, when other people’s mistresses see their concubines, they all look superior and look down on them, as if they have seen something dirty.

Only her young lady not only placed people in her and the general's courtyard, but also often persuaded the general to go to his room.

This morning he said he wanted to buy the stone mountain behind the Guanyin Temple that no one likes and build a farm there.

Although he said that he wanted to give pleasure to the young ladies and young masters.

In fact, he was thinking about the little servant and how he was trying to warm up his voice to sing.

As a servant of the Liu family and the young lady's maid, she really couldn't understand her young lady's behavior.

Although this little servant was indeed too beautiful to be real and she was often deceived, there was no need to be so outrageous.

She is beautiful, but she is so weak, and looks not as strong as a woman like her.

"Huh? What's wrong?" Yunniang came back to her senses.

"It's done, miss." Xiaoyu pointed to the colorful net in the shape of a centipede that had been woven in her miss's hand.

"Oh." Yunniang looked at the colorful necklace in her hand, then took out a fine-quality mutton-fat jade ring from her sleeve pocket and tied it on carefully.

Combined with jade beads of the same color, it is made into a pendant that can be hung around the waist.

This jade ring was given to her by her mother when she was still a girl. She said it was a fine jade handed down from her ancestors, and she returned it with the ring.

She hoped that her husband would wear it so that he could return safely from business trips.
