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

Guan Surong felt guilty and could not sleep peacefully in the small courtyard every day. For this reason, she sent someone to buy some calming incense so that she could smell it and sleep better.

However, Guan Surong did not expect that even though she fell asleep, she began to have nightmares. She dreamed every day that Mrs. Guan resented her for not saving her, and also resented Guan Surong for not avenging her.

In the dream, Madam Guan had tears on her face as she cried to Guan Surong, "My daughter, I have planned for you two children all my life, but who knew that I would suffer such humiliation at the end of my life. Those rough men are not the kind of people who can sympathize with women. I have never suffered such pain before, so I can only die first. I don’t blame you for not being able to find 30,000 taels of silver, and I am happy that you can run away. But why did you climb up the big tree of the Marquis’ Mansion, and why don’t you find a few hundred taels of silver to rescue me...I don’t hate you now, but if you don’t avenge me, I am afraid that I will not be at peace in my grave...Surong, Surong..."

When Guan Surong woke up, she was sweating profusely. She was terrified and muttering to herself all day long. She had such nightmares every day, and she became weak and gradually lost a lot of weight.

Wen Tingbai came a few times, but after seeing such a scene, he never came again. He only sent his servants to bring some things over from time to time as compensation to Guan Surong.

Guan Surong made up her mind and prepared everything. When the servant came to deliver something, she stuffed a piece of silver into the servant's hand and smiled at him, "My dear brother, I was depressed for a long time because of my mother's death. Now I think that the Second Master is my breadwinner and the man I will rely on for the rest of my life. Please help tell him that Surong is waiting for him to come and see her."

The servant who delivered the things saw that Guan Surong was in good spirits, and immediately laughed and said, "Aunt is right, the Second Master is only at home because he is very busy, otherwise he would have come here long ago. Once I go back and tell the Second Master, he will definitely come right away."

Guan Surong saw the boy said this with a shy look, "I hope you can go to the Second Master and say a few good words for me. If the Second Master really comes, I will give him a big gift in the future."

Seeing this, the servant was naturally delighted and responded immediately and went back to the Marquis' Mansion.

For the sake of money, the servant naturally went back to the mansion and exaggerated to Wen Tingbai, "The aunt seems to be in good spirits now. Although she was depressed for a while after the death of my father and mother, she seems to have woken up recently. She also said that the second master is the heaven, and she is waiting for her heaven to return to see her. I think the aunt is also a pitiful person, and now she is looking forward to the second master to see her."

Wen Tingbai already felt guilty, and when he saw the boy saying this, he also came up with an idea, and said, "I know, you can go down."

Wen Tingbai went to find Guan Surong early the next morning, carrying some good things specially prepared for Guan Surong.

Guan Surong dressed up carefully. Although she was a little thinner, she still looked like a beautiful girl, with a more delicate and pitiful look, which made Wen Tingbai feel even more pity for her.

"There were a lot of things going on in the mansion these days, so I came to see you today when I had time. I just don't know how you are doing now." Wen Tingbai looked at Guan Surong and said softly, "Mrs. Guan is gone now, you should relax and live a good life."

"Second Master is right. I was confused before. Now I understand. No matter what happens, living with Second Master is the most important thing. Now that Second Master is willing to come to see me, Su Rong is very touched. Su Rong has specially prepared a table of wine and food in the yard, just waiting for Second Master to come and eat." Guan Surong showed a smile on her face, and then Wen Tingbai went into the house.

Seeing this, Wen Tingbai immediately said to Guan Surong, "I am happy to see that you are getting better."

After hearing what Guan Surong said, Wen Tingbai sat down at the table, looking at the food and wine on the table, and said happily, "I have been with Surong for so many days, but I have never tasted her cooking skills. Now I want to taste the food and wine to see if it is delicious."

"Second Master, have a try." Guan Surong said, looking at Wen Tingbai and laughing, "Second Master, if it weren't for you, I don't know where I would be now."

Guan Surong picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of food for Wen Tingbai. She smiled softly and said, "Second Master, I made these myself. You should eat more."

Guan Surong said as she poured another glass of wine for Wen Tingbai, picked up her own glass and said to Wen Tingbai, "Second Master, this is from Surong."

Seeing this, Wen Tingbai also picked up the wine glass and drank with Guan Surong.

Guan Surong saw that Wen Tingbai had drunk the wine, so she sat on the chair and looked at Wen Tingbai and said, "Second Master, I'm afraid you don't know that my mother was a noble lady in the capital when she was young, but her family fell into poverty and she could only live in her aunt's house. Although my mother's aunt doted on my mother, she was unwilling to give her much dowry so that she could marry in style. Because of this, my mother married my father, a loser."

Guan Surong drank a glass of wine by herself, "My father is not a high-ranking official, but he has many concubines. He squanders a lot of money and even keeps several mistresses outside. In order to pay off my father's debts, my mother finds money every day, but it is still not enough to live. Later, my father owed more and more, and in order to pay off the debts, he betrothed me to the son of a local rich man. The son of the rich man is stupid and only knows how to run behind my butt. I don't like such a man. I heard my mother say that I should marry a noble man in this life. Women should fight for their own lives in this life. I listened to her and felt that I was the most capable woman in the world. It's a pity that I still failed again and again, and became what I am now, completely defeated. I don't blame my mother, she has had a hard time."

Guan Surong raised her head and looked at Wen Tingbo, crying, "She is my only relative in this world, why did you lie to me? You clearly promised me that you would help me find my mother, but you are unwilling to redeem her... You are the sinner who killed my mother."

Wen Tingbai was horrified when he heard this. He stood up and looked at Guan Surong and said, "Who told you this? It's all lies. If I knew, how could I not rescue her? Besides, the person who harmed your mother is obviously a rich man. What does it have to do with me?"

Wen Tingbai was very frightened when he saw Guan Surong's appearance. Just as he was about to go out, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen and vomited blood.
