After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home

Su Qing sat together with the other young ladies. Everyone was curious about her. Many of them had only seen her once when a banquet was specially held for her in the "Hundred Flowers Garden" in the Huainan Marquis' Mansion. Some people, such as the ladies and grandmothers, had never seen her.

At this moment, everyone looked her up and down. Her eyes and eyebrows were 50% similar to Meng Qi. She sat there quietly, saying a few words to Meng Qi from time to time, and rarely communicated with other people. She seemed to be not very courageous. No matter who mentioned her name, she would stand up uneasily and nervously hold the handkerchief in her hand.

Mrs. Hong looked at Su Qing's expression and thought that there was no need for Mrs. Hu to go to such trouble. It was obvious that she was not presentable. It would not be too late to establish her authority after she entered the palace. There was no need to be so anxious, especially in her own house.

Today was the day her granddaughter was getting married, and she really didn't want to cooperate with Mrs. Hu. But her third son agreed immediately, and she couldn't object. Besides, she had to wait until her granddaughter was married before starting, so it wouldn't be a big loss for her.

Forget it, since she has promised the third brother, then just do it. From her daughter's words, it seems that Prince Jing values ​​the third brother more and more, and is very happy to see the third brother getting close to the third master of Prince Shen's mansion. At this time, she must not ruin her daughter's plan.

Soon, a maid came to announce that the groom was coming soon. The young ladies were very excited. Su Qing was not interested in such things, but Meng Qi was very interested and stood in front holding Meng Xiu's hand. Meng Juan stood with the side branch of the Hong family and ignored the Meng sisters.

Su Qing followed several young ladies to the reception hall of Baron Bo's mansion. In order to facilitate the viewing of the ceremony without disturbing the female members of the family, two rows of hollow screens were set up in the main hall so that the scene in the hall could be seen.

When they rushed over, some people were already standing behind the screen. Soon another group of people came over. Su Qing quickly made way to the side and asked the ladies to stand forward. In fact, although the screen had hollows, it was not completely covered. What could they see if they all lay on it?

Su Qing felt someone was squeezing him, and his cloak was being pulled down. He looked up and saw that no one noticed. Maybe someone had blown it because there were too many people. Su Qing gathered his cloak and tried to move to the side. However, he was worried about Meng Qi, so he looked up and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lixia following closely beside him. He turned his head to look outside, but felt that a gaze on him was instantly withdrawn.

"It won't be long before the second young lady will wear her wedding dress like this. I'm looking forward to that day."

Su Qing turned around and saw the eldest lady of Prince Shen's mansion, Xie Fen, standing on her left and looking at her tenderly.

The last time I saw her, she was still pregnant. Now it should be a few months since she gave birth. This Mrs. Hu is really hard to describe. She didn't come herself, but sent her daughter-in-law who had just given birth. It seems that this grandmother is Mrs. Hu's vanguard.

"So it's grandma. Are you alone?" Su Qing said with a smile.

"My mother was tired from cleaning the yard for my second brother a few days ago. Her waist aches badly. My second and third sisters have to take care of her, so I came here."

Su Qing rolled her eyes in her heart. Cleaning the yard, do you want me to carry it or move it?

But she didn't show it on her face, as if she didn't hear it, "The two young ladies are very filial."

After hearing this, Xie Fen looked at Su Qing from top to bottom. Was she really stupid or was she pretending to be stupid? Shouldn't she ask a few more questions because she was tired of cleaning the yard for her? Couldn't she hear the main point by listening?

It seems that this second young lady is really as the rumors say, a petty person who has never seen the world. It's better this way, because she will definitely not be a match for me once she enters the mansion.

She had to deal with Hu, Zhou Yingning and her husband, the concubine of the palace who was obviously a concubine but acted like a mother-in-law in front of her, which already exhausted her. If this second young lady was a smart one, her life would be really difficult.

With Meng Qi's personality, it would be enough to give her a headache if she entered the palace, but in this case, it's okay. People who are timid and brainless are the easiest to deal with.

Xie Fen pinched the object in her hand. Do you want to continue? Mrs. Hu just wants to embarrass the second young lady and then test her ability.

Is this still necessary? But Xie Fen didn't dare to make a decision casually. Forget it. Even the Hong family wanted to help. Just do what you should do.

The banquet at Baron Bo's mansion did not really begin until the ceremonial officer gave his consent and stood up, and the eldest daughter of the Hong family was escorted out the door by the crowd.

Su Qing stood in the aisle waiting for Meng Qi, Meng Xiu and the others to come out. Today, only Liu and her four young ladies came from the Meng family.

At this time, snowflakes were already falling from the sky, and a few flakes slid onto Su Qing's neck, causing her to shudder. She raised her hand to brush off the snowflakes on her bangs, and inadvertently felt that gaze on her again.

Su Qing looked around with her hands. She saw people walking out of the hall one after another. No one was looking at her. Was it an illusion? Why did she suddenly feel uncomfortable?

At this time, Meng Qi and Meng Xiu finally came out. "Oh, my neck is so sore and I haven't even seen what the groom looks like?" said Meng Qi and Meng Xiu.

"Who knows what it is like? It has nothing to do with us. Second sister, why did you come out so early? Where is the eldest sister?" Meng Xiu and Su Qing were not close, but they were very polite to each other.

"Big sister was with the second young lady of the Hong family just now. I don't know where she went now." Su Qing smiled and stretched out her hand to put the hood of Meng Qi's cloak on her head. She turned around to put on her own cloak hood. When she put her hands behind her head and prepared to put them on her head, her fingertips suddenly touched a cold object in the cloak hood. Before she took it off to see what it was, she heard someone beside her shouting loudly,

"Is Sister Chu'er here? What should we do? That was the betrothal gift given by the princess when our great grandmother got married. It was just hanging on our great grandmother in the back hall, but it disappeared when she went back to change her clothes." A maid came to greet everyone, saying with red eyes.

A girl next to Su Qing took a step forward and said, "What happened to Liu Ling?"

"Sister Chu'er, what should we do? The jade pendant that Grandma always wore, which is said to be from ancient times, is missing."

"Ah~ How could this happen? If we can't find the jade pendant, what will we do?"

A little girl who was following Chu'er started sobbing softly when she heard Chu'er say this.

At this time, the housekeeper of the Hong family came over and said, "Don't worry, look around the places your great grandmother has been, maybe she fell there."

"Where could it fall? Our eldest grandmother came here on behalf of the princess. In addition to paying respects to everyone, she also spent a lot of time with the second young lady of the Meng family and talked a lot. When she was watching the ceremony just now, she saw that the second young lady of the Meng family didn't move forward, so she even stayed with her and said a few more words."

Just a few words successfully kept the people who were about to leave. Su Qing had already taken the object in the hood in his hand. It was icy cold. If his guess was correct, it must be the so-called ancient jade pendant.

Su Qing was confused at this moment. This was clearly a trap set for her. So Xie Fen was doing this for this. But she couldn't say anything at this moment. She held the jade pendant in her hand and stood aside like everyone else, listening to the two girls and the housekeeper continue to talk.

She thought about throwing the jade away, but then she changed her mind and thought, since they wanted to frame her, someone must be watching her. If she threw it away now, she would be caught. What should she do? Su Qing couldn't make up her mind for a while.

Su Qing suddenly felt that there were several more people around her, all of whom she didn't know. There were wives, grandmothers, and a few strong old women. They seemed to be watching the fun, but in fact they surrounded her tightly.

Chuan'er was pushed out and glared at the maids with dissatisfaction, but the maids seemed not to notice.

Chuan'er also felt something was wrong. He looked up at Su Qing and saw that Su Qing's face looked a little strange. He thought about how Xie Fen's girl had mentioned twice that their eldest grandmother was accompanying the second young lady. Could it be that she was targeting the second young lady?

Chuan'er didn't care about that and pushed the girl next to him aside, "Second Miss, what's that on your hair?"

As he spoke, Su Qing walked forward and took advantage of Chuan'er's movement to take out the handkerchief to put the jade pendant in his hand into Chuan'er's handkerchief.

Chuan'er held the handkerchief tightly. It was true. What should he do? Throwing it away was impossible. These girls were well prepared. Any small movement of his would be caught by them and magnified infinitely. He could only act according to circumstances.

Xie Fen looked at what Su Qing and her girl had done just now, with a smile on her face.
