Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation
Chapter 275 The last glory of Jingnan Marquis’ Mansion.
Su Jingyu is a married woman after all, and she must explain to her in-laws why she did not return home at night.
Madam Su sent her trusted nanny to report to Madam Pang and inform them of Su Jingyu's current situation.
The rhetoric was naturally the same as that given to the government:
Su Jingyu went to inspect her dowry villa and had a conflict with a young girl from a merchant's family on the way. The girl brought people to the villa and beat him up.
Mrs. Pang just thought it was ridiculous.
How could a girl from a merchant family be so bold as to beat up an official's wife just because of a small conflict?
Mrs. Pang was full of suspicion and said to her trusted nanny:
"Go to the warehouse to get some herbs, and go to the Su family to see what the second young master's wife is like. Bring everyone in our family back, I want to interrogate them thoroughly."
It’s really okay that I was just beaten by a little girl and her men.
If something else scandalous happened, my innocence would be ruined...
The Pang family would not want this daughter-in-law.
The nanny from the Pang family went to the Su Mansion in the middle of the night and alarmed both Madam Su and Mr. Su.
The two were very unhappy.
But looking at the Pang family's behavior, it is obvious that they have doubted their daughter's innocence.
There was no other choice but to let the nanny check on Su Jingyu's condition, and also allow them to take the Pang family's guards and maids back for interrogation.
Family scandals should not be made public.
But if he didn't tell the truth, Su Jingyu's innocence would be doubted by her husband's family, and the only option was to let the Pang family know about this family scandal.
Although the Su family was noble, in terms of power, they were far inferior to the current Pang family.
After interrogating, Madam Pang learned the whole story and sent someone to the Su family to pass on the message:
"Tell my second daughter-in-law to take good care of herself at her parents' home and come back when she can move."
But secretly he said to his trusted nanny:
"The Su family is a family of scholars with a long history and a clean family tradition. But inside, it's also filthy."
The eldest daughter of the Su family hated Su Jingyu to the core. She didn't believe that the disappearance of the eldest daughter had nothing to do with her second daughter-in-law and her daughter.
However, how many wealthy families are not like this? She is too lazy to care about other people's affairs.
Since the Su family has already reported to the authorities and had the person arrested, there is nothing more they can do.
Most of the manpower in the family will be used to search for the God of Du'e.
This is the most important matter of the Pang family now.
Of course, this matter is mainly handled by the men outside. As the mistress of the inner house, she now has to consider the full moon banquet at the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.
The second daughter-in-law couldn't go, and the gift they had carefully prepared was ruined, so their original gift had to be more expensive.
The master said that Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi is deeply loved by the emperor, who values his sister very much, and they must be on good terms with the wife of the Marquis of Jingnan.
After some consideration, Mrs. Pang replaced the gift with one that was 50% more expensive than the original one, and took her eldest daughter-in-law to the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.
Today, the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion is crowded with guests and there is a constant stream of traffic in front of the gate.
It is said that Jingnan Bo has gone out to seek medicine and is not in the mansion, so today's full moon banquet only invites female guests -
Ever since the news that Marquis Jingnan had a fight with a woman and fell down the stairs on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Marquis Jingnan's wife seemed to have given up.
She is no longer obsessed with creating a story about being doted on by her husband.
Even so, no one dared to talk about anything in front of them or behind their backs, for fear that bad words would be heard by Lady Jingnan and offend her.
The absence of the male host at today's full moon banquet does not affect the liveliness at all.
It was still early for the banquet to start and most of the guests had arrived.
The Imperial Noble Consort Shuyi in the palace sent a grand full-moon gift, which aroused the envy of everyone.
After receiving the gifts from the palace, Zhang sat in the main hall and talked with the ladies of each family.
Pei Xuan passed by the main hall entrance and saw the noble ladies inside, all of them were teasing Zhang's one-month-old son, flattering him enthusiastically, with a gloomy look in their eyes.
Why wasn’t he the one who was reincarnated as the legitimate mother’s son?
How come that kid inside has such good luck!
But he could only be born in the womb of an incompetent maidservant, oppressed by his stepmother, and led an extremely difficult life!
Even though Zhang's attention had shifted away from him over the past month, she only stopped making things difficult for him.
His treatment was not restored to what it was before, and he was not allowed to return to the academy to study.
On the contrary, Pei Yuan, the third brother born to the deceased concubine Yao, received a lot of benefits and was sent to academy by his stepmother.
This attitude is very clear. His stepmother just doesn't want him to have a chance to succeed again.
Pei Xuan felt that the road ahead was hopeless and he hated his biological mother immensely.
Why didn't she die early like Aunt Yao!
If she lives in this world, she will only bring trouble to him!
But even resentment would be of no use. Now, he had no other choice but to use modern knowledge to escape from his current situation as soon as possible.
In the past, he had high expectations for this matter, but he felt that he was too young, and if he rashly took out those things, it would only serve as a wedding dress for the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion.
Now, he can no longer care about so much.
He only planned to demonstrate his worth as soon as Pei Xiao returned home.
Gunpowder, glass, soap, white sugar, and high-yield crops from America are the magic weapons of the time travelers. Taking out any one of them is either worth countless silver or an unprecedented achievement.
He didn't believe that his father would allow his stepmother to continue suppressing him!
With these, even if the father and son rely on themselves alone, they can occupy a place in the court.
*
Zhang in the main hall had no idea of his plan.
As she wished, she gave birth to a boy. When she saw the little guy in her arms, she felt that all her worries were gone.
With a son by her side and a sister to rely on in the palace, her future life will be smooth sailing.
"Young Master is so lucky!"
A lady flattered as she looked at the baby in the cradle.
"Originally, there was a plague in the capital a few days ago. We were all worried that the full moon banquet at the Bo Mansion would not be affected. Who could have thought that the God of Deliverance would suddenly come and eliminate a major plague before the young master's full moon banquet!"
Zhang was smiling brightly when she heard the first half of the conversation, but suddenly she froze when she heard the second half.
After a while, she said in disbelief:
"God of Destiny? Is it because of God of Destiny that the plague in the capital was eradicated so quickly?"
The other ladies looked at her in surprise:
"Didn't Madam Bo know this before?"
"Yes."
Zhang murmured.
For so many days before, no one had told her about the God of Du'e.
The other ladies were a little surprised at first, but later they each found their own reasons.
"It's better not to know. The servants must have kept it from you because they didn't want you to worry about the plague."
"Yes, for a woman, it is more important than anything else to have a good confinement period."
Zhang also understood that this was probably her sister's order. She didn't want her to worry about the matter of the God of Du'e during her confinement, so she kept it a secret from everyone.
After calming herself down, she tried to look calm and said:
"Can anyone tell me what the relationship is between this Du'e God and the plague?"
Speaking of the God of Du'e, these noble ladies became excited.
One by one, they told her enthusiastically about the magical mist bestowed by the God of Du'e and the various miracles that appeared in Huimin Pharmacy.
It is also said that Your Majesty had visited Huimin Pharmacy twice to offer sacrifices to the gods.
"Nowadays, many families have bought tablets of the God of Deliverance and taken them home to worship!"
"Yes, my old lady now prays to the God of Deliverance every day, hoping that the God will bless her with good health and a long life!"
"Don't mention the old lady, my master also worships the God of Deliverance!"
"This is the only deity that has ever appeared in the capital. If we worship it well, we will benefit a lot. Anyway, I have made up my mind that once the statue in the temple is built, I will immediately go and get a small golden statue to worship at home!"
"Yes, me too. The tablets we offer now are still too simple and crude, and they don't seem sincere enough."
After listening to this, Zhang felt completely disappointed.
While she was in confinement, the God of Du'e arrived in the capital city in such a powerful manner.
Now, everyone, including Your Majesty, praises you!
In this situation, do they really have a chance of winning?
