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

Song Jing has always been a person who values ​​the reputation of his relatives. Seeing Madam Guan doing this, his expression became complicated. He stepped forward and helped Madam Guan up from the ground. He looked at Madam Guan helplessly and said, "Sister, why are you like this now?"

"Brother, if you don't help me this time, I won't get up." Mrs. Guan felt sympathy for Song Jing and tears fell one by one, looking extremely weak. "I only ask that you help me and Su Rong one last time and let us stay until Su Rong gets engaged. We will move out immediately."

Song Jing stood there and sighed, "Sister, I can only help you this last time. But I have to make it clear now. When the Yan family comes, I will definitely explain the relationship between our two families clearly so that no one will misunderstand."

"Brother, you are the one who makes the decision." When Mrs. Guan heard this, a smile finally broke out on her face, and she slowly stood up.

Madam Guan pulled Guan Surong up and said with gratitude, "Why don't you thank your uncle quickly?"

Guan Surong bowed to Madam Guan and said hurriedly, "Thank you, uncle, for helping Surong this time."

"Now that things have come to this, you two should just go back to the courtyard and have a good rest." Song Jing looked at the old lady, "Grandma, I'll ask my men to cook some dishes that you like. Why don't you have a good rest here after dinner?"

"I'm so angry now, how can I eat anything?" The old lady was satisfied to see that Song Jing finally didn't drive Madam Guan and her daughter out. "I have to go back home now. I can't get used to living in your general's mansion."

Seeing this, Song Jing had no choice but to ask the two maids around him to send the old lady back.

Mrs. Guan and Guan Surong finally got this opportunity, and they were anxious in the yard. Mrs. Guan looked at Guan Surong and asked calmly, "Did Yan Yuzhi say when he would marry you?"

Guan Surong now also had a sad face, "Yan Yuzhi only said that he would go back home to discuss with his family, but he didn't say when he would come."

"You have to come after all, right? If so, our plan as mother and daughter will fail." Mrs. Guan paced back and forth with a handkerchief in her hand.

"Yuzhi shouldn't be such a person." Guan Surong sat on the chair, feeling unsure, "Now he is in a difficult situation. If he doesn't come to propose marriage, he will probably be criticized."

Although Madam Guan and Guan Surong were anxious, they had no other way to change the current situation. They could only wait in the General's Mansion for the people from the Yan Mansion to come.

At this time, Mrs. Yan in the Yan Mansion heard about this and was even more incredulous. She just looked at Yan Yuzhi and said, "Did General Song Jing really say that Guan Surong is not her biological niece?"

Yan Yuzhi nodded with a gloomy face, "General Song Jing was very angry and said that Su Rong had ruined the reputation of the General's Mansion and wanted to kick her out."

"What should I do now..." Madam Yan thought, frowning again, "Now many people know about you and her. If I don't marry her, I'm afraid you will abandon her after having an affair with her, and it will be difficult to find a husband in the future."

"When I came back, I specifically inquired about it. Guan Surong is only the granddaughter of the old lady's sister in the general's mansion. And General Song Jing was born to my late wife. She is not a real granddaughter to Guan Surong. She just came to the general's mansion shamelessly and was thinking about my son." Yan Yuzhi said these words with regret on his face. He said coldly, "I guess she set up this trap from the beginning, waiting for my son to take the bait. It's my son's fault that he didn't inquire clearly and fell into her trap."

Madam Yan also sighed now, "It's useless to say these things. The only plan now is to go to the general's mansion to see what's going on. If General Song Jing is really angry with Guan Surong, then he can't marry her anyway. It's better to make her a concubine."

Yan Yuzhi also agreed with what Madam Yan said, "Mother is right. If Guan Surong didn't have the General's Mansion, her father would only be a fifth-rank official who died last year. The family has no connections or property, so they came to the capital to seek refuge with their relatives. If my son marries her as his principal wife, it will be of no use to the family business in the future."

Madam Yan and Yan Yuzhi discussed a countermeasure and immediately sent a letter to the General's Mansion and went there.

Although the Yan family is a merchant family, they are more than enough to match Guan Surong.

When Madam Yan and Yan Yuzhi entered the house, they were quickly welcomed by the little maid to the main hall. Yan Yuzhi saw Guan Surong sitting on a chair at a glance. She was wearing a pink dress, which made her skin look pink and tender.

Yan Yuzhi's heart moved, and he thought that it would not be a disgrace to have such a woman as his concubine.

Song Jing and Song Lan were also in the hall. Madam Yan brought Yan Yushang forward and smiled at Song Jing, "General, I have heard of your reputation outside for a long time. It is rare to see you now. I see that you are truly a rare talent, and you are so heroic."

Madam Yan said, her eyes fell on Song Lan, and she smiled and flattered, "I guess this must be General Song Lan. He is also a handsome man, and he is unforgettable at first sight."

Seeing that there was something to discuss, Song Jing patiently spoke up, "It's rare that Madam Yan and Mr. Yan come here so early in the morning. Please take a seat."

Mrs. Yan sat aside but didn't even glance at Mrs. Guan.

"General, my son has done some stupid things, bringing disgrace to the reputation of the General's Mansion. I have already severely reprimanded him. Now I think it is because I did not teach him well enough that he did such a thing. I came here today to discuss the marriage with Su Rong, so that I can make up for it a little."

Song Jing just smiled faintly and said, "Madam Yan is too polite. I'll tell you the truth. Su Rong is the granddaughter of my mother's sister. The old lady felt sorry for her sister, so she took Su Rong to live in the mansion temporarily. Although the Song Mansion and the General's Mansion are still relatives, they are separated after all. Now, Madam, just treat the General's Mansion as the host, and discuss Su Rong's marriage directly with Su Rong's mother."

When Mrs. Yan heard this, she understood what Song Jing meant. He had cleared himself of all charges, and the only thing missing was to make it clear that Guan Surong had nothing to do with the General's Mansion.

Madam Guan, who was sitting next to Madam Yan, could no longer hold back and smiled at Madam Yan in a flattering manner, "Madam Yan, now that things have come to this, I wonder when the Yan family will come to propose marriage?"

"Propose an engagement?" Madam Yan seemed to have heard something funny. "In our Yan family, we have always considered Su Rong as a concubine."
