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

"Whether they are getting a divorce or not, we have to welcome the person in." Nan Hongqiu immediately found a way out. She followed the two maids beside her and quickly went out of the hall to welcome the person.

Soon, Nan Hongqiu welcomed Wen Tingbai into the house and started talking about eating. "Sir, have you eaten yet? They are eating at home. You are here at the right time. Let's have a quick meal before leaving."

Wen Tingbai pretended to laugh twice, looking like a gentleman. "Auntie is kind enough to give me a meal, so I shouldn't refuse. But the elders in the family are still waiting for Tingbai, so I came here today to take Wan Ning home."

"Really?" Nan Hongqiu smiled even more happily after hearing what Wen Tingbo said, "Wan Ning is in the hall, but she seems a little angry. Since Tingbo is here, she should comfort her. There is no overnight hatred between husband and wife."

"Thank you, auntie. This is all Tingbai's fault. I come here today specifically to apologize to Wanning." While Wen Tingbai was speaking, he had already followed Nan Hongqiu to the hall. His eyes first fell on Song Jing, and then on Song Wanning.

"Good boy, you only have Wan Ning in your eyes. Go quickly." Nan Hongqiu pointed out the direction to Wen Tingbai with a smile.

Wen Tingbai walked to Song Wanning's side in a few steps and bowed, "Wanning, if you have finished the reunion dinner, please go home with me. The elders at home are worried and are waiting for you."

Song Wanning said nothing, and the old lady sitting above immediately spoke up, "Wanning, since Brother Bo has come to pick you up, you should go back with him. It's not always possible to have such a blessing to be picked up like this."

After hearing what the old lady said, Song Wanning immediately stood up and looked at everyone and said, "I have already said that I want a divorce, so I will not return. Please go back on your own, Mr. Bai. I will come to discuss the divorce in two days."

"Is it really like this, Wan Ning?" Wen Tingbai looked distressed, as if he was deeply in love. "We have been married for three years. How can this relationship be severed just like that?"

Song Wanning glanced at Wen Tingbo and said unhappily, "I have already made it clear to you. Who are you pretending to be for?"

Seeing that Song Wanning was not making sense, Wen Tingbai turned his attention to Song Jing who was sitting in front of him.

Wen Tingbai walked to Song Jing's side and bowed, saying, "My son-in-law greets my father-in-law. I know that I did something wrong, so I came here today to apologize. I hope you will forgive me this time."

Song Jing glanced at Wen Tingbai and said, "A few days ago, you told me that you would show me your sincerity and get rid of all the concubines in your house. As far as I know, you didn't kick that concubine out, and you even took in another one. Are you trying to make things difficult for me?"

"Father-in-law, please understand." Wen Tingbai knew that he was in the wrong, but he admitted his fault. "This matter is really not decent for the son-in-law. The concubine is already pregnant, and it is not convenient to divorce her. The other concubine has been with me for many years. She should have been promoted to a concubine long ago, but it has been delayed. But the son-in-law dared to make a promise that after the concubine gives birth to a child, she will definitely be raised by Wan Ning. The son-in-law will not take another concubine."

Wen Tingbai's words were all reasonable, and the old lady nodded repeatedly, "Which wealthy family doesn't have two concubines? If there are no concubines, it's not decent to say it out. Tingbai only has two concubines, which is not too many."

Song Jing's face turned colder, but he still said patiently, "From what I know, you and your wife are already at odds, and you even abandoned your bride on your wedding night and went to the frontier. Why do you change your mind now?"

Wen Tingbai felt really guilty when he heard this, so he lowered his head again and said, "Father, I was young and ignorant back then, and I didn't know how good Wan Ning was. Now that I'm older, I realize how big a mistake I made, and I sincerely want to make it up to Wan Ning. Please give me another chance, father-in-law."

"Since the relationship is not harmonious, how can we make amends?" Song Jing was used to fighting on the battlefield, and when he spoke, everyone around him subconsciously held their breath and concentrated, "Let's get a divorce. I will come to discuss the divorce in the Marquis' Mansion in two days."

"Father-in-law..." Wen Tingbai's smile was uglier than his crying. He wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Song Jing again.

"Wan Ning will not go back with you today, you just need to go back to the Marquis' Mansion by yourself." Song Jing said, "If you don't want to, my Song Mansion is not afraid of going to court."

"No, no, no, it's not that serious. It's not that serious." Wen Tingbai shook his head repeatedly after hearing what Song Jing said, and said with a folded hand, "Since father-in-law said so, Tingbai will go home first and greet the elders at home and wait for father-in-law to come."

Seeing Song Jing's firm stance, Wen Tingbai became displeased and had to leave the mansion in dismay.

As soon as the person left, the old lady flew into a rage, pointing at Song Jing's forehead and cursing, "Song Jing, you are so rebellious now, openly going against your parents, it's really chilling. If you really want Wan Ning to divorce, you don't have to call me mother anymore."

The old lady is a second wife and has never been close to Song Jing, but now she is acting like an elder.

"Madam, why do you have to say such things? My son has always been a rough man. If there is anything that is not considerate, please forgive me." Song Jing stood up and said slowly, "Madam and my sister-in-law found such a marriage for Wan Ning, and I have not yet settled the accounts with you. Now I just want to make amends, so why do you have to be so aggressive?"

"You, you..." The old lady almost couldn't breathe after hearing this, and said angrily, "Why did I raise such an unfilial son like you? If I had known you were a child, I should have thrown you into the river and drowned you, so that you would not say such disrespectful words when you grow up."

"My son still has official duties to attend to, so he won't continue talking with Madam. Just let the younger generations accompany Madam." Song Jing said, glanced at Song Lan, turned around and left the hall.

Song Lan received the order and quickly jumped to the old lady and poured her a cup of tea. "Don't be angry, old ancestor. Don't bother with the old man. He is a rough man and his words are not pleasant to the ears. It is my grandson who speaks nicely. Even if it is the old lady's fault, you shouldn't say it directly..."

"Get lost!" the old lady cursed coldly, "Your family can't produce a good child."

"Okay." Song Lan was not angry even after being scolded. He smiled and walked down a few steps to Song Wanning, patted Song Wanning's chair, and said, "Let's go!"

Just like that, the family of three left the hall, and what remained was a real family.

Seeing that the person had finally left, Song Wanshi started talking. She looked at Nan Hongqiu with a sad face and said, "Mother...what should I do? I haven't discussed marriage yet. If Song Wanning divorces me, how can I get married?"
