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

Song Wanning listened to Nan Hongqiu's words carefully. What she meant was that the husband she had found for Song Wanning was excellent, and the discord between Song Wanning and her husband was all Song Wanning's fault for not being able to hold her husband's heart.

Song Wanning just felt amused and exposed Nan Hongqiu's excuse without hesitation, "The first and second houses of the Zhongping Marquis' Mansion have been at odds for a long time. Although Wen Tingbai looks upright and has a good appearance, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is unreliable. The old lady is also notoriously difficult to get along with. At the beginning, Sister Wanxiu was older than me, but you were reluctant to let her suffer, and only wanted me to marry into the mansion to win over the Marquis' Mansion."

"That's enough. You didn't say you didn't want to marry when someone came to you to talk about marriage. Why are you being so rude now?" Song Wanshi, who was sitting opposite Song Wanning, was always hot-tempered. She immediately said coldly, "With your talent, being able to marry Wen Tingbo is already a blessing from your previous life. Do you think you are worthy of such a talented man? If you divorce, I'm afraid you will never be able to get married again."

Before Song Wanning could say anything, Song Lan's voice came from the other end, "I don't need my sister to help me figure out whether I can get married or not."

When Song Wanshi heard the voice, she immediately fell silent and lowered her head without saying a word.

Song Lan has always been protective of his own people, and as a martial artist, none of his brothers and sisters dared to challenge him.

Nan Hongqiu saw this and quickly stepped forward to smooth things over, "Brother Lan is here, the sisters were just joking, Brother Lan, don't take it to heart."

"Don't worry about it?" Song Lan said as he sat in the empty seat next to Song Wanning. He had a slender figure and when he sat on the chair, he was much taller than the other sisters, which made people feel very oppressive.

Song Lan replied with a fake smile, "I have been away from home fighting for many years, but I have never heard of anyone joking about whether they are worthy of someone or not. Now I really don't understand the jokes in Shengjing."

Nan Hongqiu looked embarrassed, but still said patiently, "Sisters quarrel sometimes. Shi'er has always been impatient, and knowing that Wan Ning was divorcing her, it was difficult to discuss marriage, so she said a few unpleasant words. It takes two to tango. Wan Ning said something hurtful first, and then Shi'er started to talk back."

Nan Hongqiu is Song Wanshi's biological mother after all, and her words and deeds are all to help Song Wanshi. Song Lan naturally wouldn't let it go after hearing this, he sneered and said, "Now that my father and I are back, this is the situation. When we were away, how did Wan Ning live?"

Before Nan Hongqiu could say anything, Song Lan spoke again, "Wan Ning is my biological sister. If anyone insults her in the future, don't blame me, Song Lan, for not recognizing her as a relative."

When Song Lan spoke, his eyes fell on Song Wanshi who was sitting at the opposite table, causing Song Wanshi to lower her head even more, almost burying it under the table.

"It's time to eat, let's eat." Nan Hongqiu could only change the subject when she saw this. She looked at the little maid beside her and said, "Go and invite the old ancestor and the masters of the family to come for dinner."

Song Wanning smiled slightly, moved closer to Song Lan, and whispered, "Thank you, brother, for speaking for me."

Song Lan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why are you being so polite to me? If I hear you again next time, I will let you down."

Not long after, everyone in the Song Mansion arrived. The old lady sitting at the top spoke at the right time when the meal was almost over, and her eyes stabbed at Song Wanning like a knife. "Wanning came back last night?"

Song Wanning knew in her heart that someone must have told the old lady that she was resting in the Song Mansion. Song Wanning responded and looked at the old ancestor sitting above and said, "Reporting to the old ancestor, Wanning came back last night."

"It's against the rules for you to come back and rest." The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a cold voice, "Go back quickly after dinner, otherwise people in Shengjing will laugh at our girls for not following the rules."

Before Song Wanning could reply, Song Jing, who was sitting next to the old lady, spoke up, "Old lady, Wanning has entrusted herself to the wrong person. My son is determined to get her divorced and come back, so Wanning will not go back to the Marquis' Mansion. I will go to the Marquis' Mansion in two days to complete this matter, and then I will return to the Song Mansion completely."

The old lady narrowed her eyes, her expression was already unhappy, "What are you talking about? Why do you want to divorce this biological child? There are so many women in this world who are still living a hard life, not to mention that Wan Ning has no worries about food and clothing in the Marquis' Mansion."

Song Jing was unwilling to give in on this matter. "Wan Ning is our child, not a child from a small family. She doesn't have to stay in the Marquis' Mansion and suffer like other girls."

"If she really divorces, our family will become enemies with the Marquis's family." The old lady said, becoming more and more unhappy. "Besides, it will be difficult for unmarried girls in the family to find a husband."

Song Lan, who was beside Song Wanning, heard this. His voice was ethereal and his person was uninhibited. He immediately responded, "If the ancestor is afraid that my sister will bring trouble to the family, the first and second houses should be separated. Even if the family is separated, we can still provide for the ancestor. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

"How dare you!" Song Zhan, who was sitting next to the old lady, that is, the old lady's biological son and Song Wanning's uncle, spoke at this time. As he spoke, he slammed his palm on the table and said angrily, "How dare you talk about dividing the family when the elders are here? Brother Lan has been away for a few years, and he has become independent now, but he keeps talking about dividing the family."

Song Zhan now did not dare to openly oppose Song Jing. He only dared to set an example on such a small matter to punish Song Lan for the crime of disobeying his elders.

Song Lan glanced at the old lady and muttered, "That's strange... She's always afraid of this and that."

The old lady glanced at Song Wanning and said coldly, "Don't even think about divorce. It's impossible. As long as I'm alive, I won't let Wanning do such a thing and ruin the reputation of the whole family."

"Grandfather, I must divorce you." Song Wanning put down the bowl and dishes. She always sat upright and said calmly, "I am just informing you of this matter now. I am not discussing it with you."

"You..." The old lady was about to speak, but was interrupted by the maid.

The maid ran in from outside and looked at the old lady sitting upstairs and said, "Grandma, someone from the Zhongping Marquis's Mansion has come. They said that they had a quarrel with the girl from our mansion and want to take Miss Wan Ning back."

The old lady and Nan Hongqiu laughed as if they were relieved after hearing this. Nan Hongqiu even stood up and called out, "Hurry up and call the son-in-law in for dinner. After dinner, we can happily go back to the Marquis' Mansion together."

Song Jing, who was sitting at the other end, heard Nan Hongqiu's words and immediately said, "Wan Ning has already said that she will not return to the Marquis' Mansion, but my sister-in-law doesn't understand."

Nan Hongqiu stood there awkwardly, and the atmosphere became cold for a moment.
