Favoring concubines and ignoring wives? The mistress of the marquisate remarried a powerful official

The next morning, Mrs. Guan took her two children to the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion to visit Song Wanshi.

Song Wanshi has always looked down upon these relatives, and now her face is disfigured and she doesn't like to see people. But now she heard that this family has been living in the general's mansion since they were young, and she didn't want to appear too cold in her relationships, so she still met the family of three.

Because her appearance was completely ruined, she usually wore a veil so that people could not see her appearance clearly. When she wore gorgeous clothes, she looked almost the same as a young woman.

It was just that Madam Guan had heard about Song Wanshi earlier. Seeing her like this, she was not surprised at all. She just smiled at Song Wanshi and said, "Good girl, I heard from your mother earlier that you married into the Zhongping Marquis's Mansion. I should have come to see you right after I came to the capital, but now I have been delayed because of many things in the mansion. It's not too late to come now. It's hard for you to take the time to talk to our family."

Song Wanshi originally wanted to just get it over with, but when she raised her eyes she saw Guan Wenyan standing behind Mrs. Guan.

Guan Wenyan looked like a handsome young man. He was wearing a blue short shirt, but one could see that his figure was very tall among the maids and old women.

Song Wanshi swallowed the polite words that were about to come out of her mouth, and looked at Madam Guan and smiled, "I haven't seen my aunt for a long time. Now I feel close to my cousins."

"Good child, now that you have married into the Marquis' Mansion, your life will be much better." Madam Guan looked at Guan Surong and Guan Wenyan and smiled faintly, "My two children are still uncared for, and I, your aunt, have to be anxious. Although they have come to the capital, they are still living as sojourners and have no place to call home, which makes me very worried."

Before Song Wanshi could speak, Madam Guan continued, "Good boy, do you have any job to arrange for Wen Yan? This child is good at housekeeping, accounting, running errands, etc."

As soon as Mrs. Guan finished speaking, Guan Wenyan stepped forward from the back, looked at Song Wanshi and chuckled, "Cousin, I think we haven't seen each other for many years. Now that I see you, I miss you so much."

Since Song Wanshi got married, she rarely saw such a good-looking man. Especially now that she was going to be a widow for the rest of her life, she felt even more unwilling. She just looked at Guan Wenyan and said, "I do have a lot of shops under my name that I need to manage, but I wonder if my cousin is willing to do this job?"

"What's the point of being willing or not?" Guan Wenyan smiled brightly, looking at Song Wanshi and said calmly, "If my cousin has mercy on me and gives me a job to make a living, I will definitely work hard to thank my cousin."

Song Wanshi looked down at Guan Wenyan and said with a faint smile, "In that case, you can stay in the Zhongping Marquis' Mansion and work for me. If you manage the shop under my name well, you will definitely benefit from it in the future."

Guan Wenyan smiled happily after hearing this, and quickly responded happily, "My cousin trusts me so much now, I will definitely not let her down."

Now that Mrs. Guan and Guan Surong saw that Song Wanshi agreed so readily, they were naturally very happy. Now that Guan Wenyan's job was settled, they were just waiting for Song Wanshi to get married, and then find a good marriage for Guan Wenyan. Then their whole family would be well-known in the capital.

The family settled the matter, exchanged some pleasantries with Song Wanshi, and then happily returned to the general's mansion.

Guan Wenyan arrived at the residence of Marquis Zhongping to work within two days. He was efficient and sweet-spoken, and soon made Song Wanshi very happy.

Guan Wenyan is now in charge of the manor that Song Wanshi brought as a dowry to the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion, and he will have to repay Song Wanshi soon.

Every time Song Wanshi saw Guan Wenyan, she would always send his attendants away and let Guan Wenyan be alone with her in the yard. Listening to Guan Wenyan's sweet words, she felt that life was better.

On the other side, Guan Surong, under the instigation of Mrs. Guan, quickly attacked Song Lan.

Madam Guan bought Guan Surong some top-quality warming wine from outside, and said to Guan Surong, "Now this wine can warm up the body if you drink it. If you take more initiative, are you still afraid that you can't win him over?"

"Mother, Cousin Lan has always been a smart man. If he finds out, I'm afraid my uncle will be angry." Guan Surong still couldn't make up her mind. She looked at Madam Guan and said, "If my uncle gets angry and doesn't let us continue to live in the general's mansion, what should we do?"

"How can there be so many surprises?" Mrs. Guan was now very confident in her daughter. She looked at Guan Surong and said slowly, "If Lan Ge'er has a sweetheart now, if you don't think of a way, you may not get any benefits."

Guan Surong listened to Madam Guan's words, but still hesitated, "Mother, if I really go, I'm afraid there will be no turning back."

Guan Surong is still thinking about Yan Yuzhi in her heart. She is in Cao's camp but her heart is with Han. She is reluctant to leave the powerful general's mansion, so she is hesitating here.

"This love wine is just wine after all. If he doesn't want to drink it, you can bring it back and we can think of other ways." Mrs. Guan has now made up her mind, "After all, it's not a poison that can harm people and won't kill people."

Guan Surong now went to Song Lan's yard with a glass of wine. It was getting late and Song Lan was still practicing in the yard.

Seeing Song Lan still busy, Guan Surong smiled her best smile and said to Song Lan, "It's getting late today, and my cousin is still busy."

Song Lan put away the flower spear in his hand and stood in front of Guan Surong. "Cousin Rong, you are here in my yard now, but what's the matter?"

Guan Surong smiled calmly and said slowly, "Now that our family is staying in the general's mansion, I feel very bad about it, so I made some of my specialties for you to try, and also warmed up a pot of wine for you to enjoy. I just don't know if you still have an appetite."

Song Lan looked at Guan Surong, and in his mind he remembered Song Wanning's reminder to be wary of the food sent by this family. Although thinking so, Song Lan still smiled and said to Guan Surong, "Since it was made by my cousin, of course we have to eat it. Just ask someone to put these dishes in the pavilion."

Guan Surong smiled and asked the servants who were carrying the plates of food behind her to place them one by one on the stone table in the pavilion.

After they were seated, Guan Surong poured another glass of wine for Song Lan, "Cousin, this wine was also warmed by Su Rong herself, you might as well try it and see how it tastes."
