Thinking of Song Guanzhou's temperament, Rendong repeatedly said, "Young Madam is a man among women, and she should keep her word."

The husband among women, once this title is attached, Song Guanzhou is somewhat at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Ren Dong has said this to her several times. Now she can only respond seriously, "Okay, okay, I will listen to you. When have I made mistakes when you gave me instructions? Besides, I am also a reasonable person. If Pei Si is not wrong, I will not hold him accountable."

……

"Young Madam, please be gentle in front of the master. I am begging you, okay?"

"Okay, okay, just tell me now!"

Ren Dong thought that she couldn't keep this a secret, so she told Lianhua about her guess. "We followed the eldest lady out, but she didn't go out of the house, but went straight to Yanlai Hall."

Ah!

"Panxi lead the way?"

Rendong nodded and said, "When we chased them there, the Fourth Young Master and the Second Young Master of the Qin Family just came out. We had to avoid them and hide outside the courtyard gate. We saw and heard everything clearly." Fortunately, the wall of Yanlaitang was not high, otherwise we would not be able to see what Jin Fuyun did.

After that, Honeysuckle told everything in one breath.

Song Guanzhou sneered, "Green tea bitch!"

Honeysuckle raised her head anxiously. She didn't understand what the word "green tea bitch" meant, but she knew that bitch was not a good word, so she quickly stopped Song Guanzhou, "My ancestor, you must not say that. That girl has a good reputation and a good family background. People have used her as a handle. The young lady is the one who is right but cannot say anything."

"I won't say anything in the future, but Jin Fuyun has feelings for Pei An. In your opinion, what will she do in the future?"

Honeysuckle supported her as they walked along the corridor, and after careful consideration, she said, "In my humble opinion, the young lady may have two ideas."

"tell me the story."

"There is no such thing as a co-wife in Dalong now. She is pestering the Fourth Young Master, so I'm afraid she won't dare to go this route. If she asks for a concubine, given her noble status, she will definitely not be willing to be inferior to the Young Madam. I think - either use some means to force the Fourth Young Master to divorce his wife and marry someone else; or..."

She didn't dare to say anything more.

Song Guanzhou looked at the woman in front of him carefully. The scar on her face was still obviously horrifying, but her eyes were clear, and there was a hint of intelligence and clarity in them.

When Honeysuckle was looked at like this, she wondered if she had said something wrong.

After all, she was too bold, so she lowered her head and prepared to apologize, but Song Guanzhou got there first and asked, "Whatever it is, just tell me."

Either...

Honeysuckle hesitated, fearing that if she made a wild guess, she would cause trouble.

Seeing the embarrassment on her face, Song Guanzhou smiled faintly, "Either kill me and take my place, right?"

"… Young Madam, have you guessed it all?"

Song Guanzhou was not happy to hear that someone wanted to kill her for a man. She sighed lightly, "Is it really like this?"

Ren Dong no longer had any concerns and spoke out everything she was thinking. "It doesn't necessarily mean that I will do it myself. The young lady's family home is quiet and simple, which is completely different from the houses and backyards next door. It has always been said that women are the most vicious, but it is not just a joke. Men are cruel, but few are like the women in the backyard. They have a pure face and are delicate and lovely, but their methods are sinister and vicious. It's hard to describe."

"Just tell me more."

"The Xiao family is a large clan, with four generations living under one roof. There are dozens of masters, and each branch and courtyard has its own calculations. The most common ones are wives and concubines fighting, sisters-in-law fighting, and snatching brides and sons-in-law."

At this point, an old story from deep in Honeysuckle's memory surfaced.

But she didn't dare to say more, and just said briefly to Song Guanzhou, "In a wealthy family, the girls are all delicate, but even ten fingers are stretched out and have their lengths, let alone people. Good young men are rare, what should I do? Young ladies are just a group of unmarried girls around 14 or 15 years old. If I don't scheme, how can I get a good husband?"

The words were spoken cryptically, but Song Guanzhou had read too many domestic novels and knew the general idea.

"But how can you covet a married man like Pei Si?"

"Madam, this girl is not bad. She is an unmarried woman, but she is close to the Fourth Young Master and Qin Erlang. They say they are close friends, but what kind of lady from a noble family would mess around with men like this? She often holds banquets at the Manyue Tower and coaxes two men to go over and play."

Just listening to it makes me feel like I'm getting married.

It's a pity that she did it in secret. Qin Qingdong and Pei An were both upright gentlemen and didn't tell anyone. Otherwise -

"I knew she had a crush on Pei An, but I wasn't sure how she would plot against me..."

Song Guanzhou told the truth, how could he not be on guard?

Taking advantage of the approaching dusk, Ren Dong approached Song Guanzhou and elaborated on several tactics. "In the future, if the young lady is present at banquets, young lady will have to pay more attention. I will definitely take good care of the food and other things. In the future, we will have to order a few guards to follow us. Also..., young lady should ignore prostitutes like Zhu Baoyue."

Song Guanzhou exclaimed.

"Of course I didn't pay any attention."

Ren Dong sighed, "My ancestor, what I mean is that you cannot have any contact with him. Even if the Fourth Young Master goes to the building to have fun and socialize again, you can no longer knock on his door like you did during the Lantern Festival."

Wow?

"What does this have to do with Jin Fuyun? I have to worry about her coming when I discipline my husband?"

Ren Dong stamped her feet lightly, "Young Madam, you must not let Jin Fuyun hold you hostage. If she makes a fuss and causes you to say dirty things to the Fourth Young Master again, what will happen if she divorces you?"

"It's just right to take a break!"

Song Guanzhou was angry when he heard this. How could he live if he had to be prepared for everything?

Honeysuckle cried out, "Grandfather! Grandfather! You promised me that I would never lose my temper."

"I know, I know. Why don't you let me get angry for a moment? Pei Sizhen is so lovable. Throw him away to save my life."

"Ancestor!"

Honeysuckle knelt down with a thud, "You are going to kill me."

"Get up and talk!"

Song Guanzhou was also worried. Ren Dong knew that she was unhappy. She stood up and lowered her voice, almost choking with sobs, "You always talk about divorcing your wife. Why don't you find that Zhuanggu Mengsao to tell you how difficult it is for women in this world without a husband? Even if you are cruel and ignore the poor servants in our house, you should still think about the deceased old man and old lady in your natal family. They went through so much trouble to choose a good place for you, why don't you cherish it?"

After saying this, tears rolled down his cheeks.

Song Guanzhou held his forehead with his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you and won't mention divorce anymore."

Ren Dong couldn't help but feel sad. She didn't understand why Song Guanzhou said that life after leaving a man was so easy... From high-ranking officials to peddlers, whose daughter would want to get married and then be divorced and go home...

What's more -

If Song Guanzhou really had an accident, the wives and maids who followed him would probably be left adrift and their lives would be at the mercy of fate.

"Young Madam, you are the backbone of us servants, you must not get into any trouble."

OK OK——

I’m going to fight with God to avoid being cut in half!
