Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore

Nanny Wei advised kindly:

"Tiancheng, you have to control your stubborn temper.

This place is not like the Taiwei Mansion, where you can be as petty as you want.

If you are not careful, you will cause trouble for our girl.

The girl's body has not yet fully recovered, and she must not be hurt a second time."

Tian Cheng's cheeks puffed up with anger, and he said unhappily:

"In the past three years, our girl has worked hard for the family and has been exhausted.

When the lady was critically ill several times, it was the girl who took care of her every step of the way.

I never thought that the Marquis would dare to keep a mistress outside and not care about the girl at all.

I really feel bad for the girl.”

Nanny Wei patted her shoulder gently, signaling her to stop talking.

"Okay, just say less and stop annoying the girl."

Song Wanyin took the plum blossom soup and smiled:

"It doesn't matter. Let others say whatever they want. These rumors can no longer hurt me."

Nanny Wei took out a thick stack of banknotes and account books from her sleeve and presented them forward.

"Miss, this is the rent for ten shops. The rent for a dozen shops in other places will be delivered to your house in a few days.

These are the rents from the tenants. All in all, this month's income is quite considerable, a total of two thousand taels of silver."

Song Wanyin nodded, signaled Tiancheng to accept it, and said:

"Madame Wei, you and Madame Lu are both senior members of the Taiwei Mansion. I feel very relieved to have you helping me to check and manage things.

From now on, these account books do not need to be sent to the accounting office in the mansion. Just send them to me.

I want to let the Gu family have a taste of what it feels like to be defeated by a penny."

Nanny Wei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she couldn't help but praise:

"Girl, you are really smart.

You have spent almost half of your dowry over the years, and it is time to plan for the future."

Song Wanyin tasted the plum blossom soup, everything was under control, and said with a smile:

"I have my own plans. After I have sorted out all the problems one by one, we can go back to the Taiwei Mansion."

Nanny Wei was puzzled and asked:

"Miss, the Taiwei Mansion has long been in decline. Even if we go back, we will have no relatives or friends and no place to stay."

Song Wanyin's bright eyes sparkled as she said:

"Madam Wei, money makes the world go round. I will renovate the Taiwei Mansion when I return.

The dowry I have is enough for dozens of us masters and servants to live out the rest of our lives in peace.

When my eldest brother returns home, I believe he will be able to revive the Song family. By then, I will also have the support of my mother’s family.”

When she mentioned her brother, her eyes became moist, as she was always worried about her only relative who was fighting a war at the border and whose life or death was uncertain.

I still remember the scene of sending my brother off ten miles away, it is still vivid in my mind.

Her brother promised her that he would achieve outstanding military exploits, bring honor to the family, and no one would dare to bully her again.

Since her parents passed away one after another, her brother has become her only spiritual support.

Only then did Madam Wei relax her frown, gently patted her forehead and said:

"Oh, I am really old and confused.

It seems that our girl has really matured and is no longer a soft persimmon that can be easily bullied. "

Sweet Orange still had some concerns:

"Girl, with the Marquis's hot temper, he will never let you go so easily.

I am worried that he will resort to force if he is not soft enough."

Song Wanyin ate the last spoonful of plum blossom soup and said with a faint smile:

"He has the will but not the courage to do it. He will have to ask me for help in many places in the future."

After saying this, he handed her the empty blue and white porcelain bowl and said pitifully:

"Sweet Orange, I suddenly want to eat the plum blossom shortbread you made.

When my mother was alive, she was very good at making plum blossom pastries.

I remember my mother taught you that. I really miss that feeling."

Seeing that she had regained her playful and lovely self at her mother's house, Tian Cheng smiled dotingly and said:

"Okay, my master is my own, so I can only pamper him myself."

In the corridor of the courtyard, a black figure had a panoramic view of everyone coming in and out of Qingzhu Garden.

Hearing the footsteps of someone coming, he turned around and hurriedly disappeared at the end of the corridor, leaving behind a trail of dust and frost.

In the Suxin Garden, a fire was burning brightly in the jade-faced Qilin beast stove, making the bedroom warm and blocking out the wind and snow outside the door.

The lady was lying in bed recuperating. Perhaps because she had cried too much, her eye disease had relapsed and her vision became blurry.

"Someone, someone, please go get the doctor."

She called out several times but no one responded, so she had to grope her way out of the bed and stumble to the ground.

"Bang!"

The lady knocked over the teacup on the table, and the scalding tea burned the back of her hand, causing her to fall heavily to the ground.

"Ouch, I fell to death!

Where did all these damn servants go?

Come quickly, help me! "

Her miserable voice echoed in the deserted garden. Snowflakes flew all over the sky, sweeping up the snow on the ground.

Gu Qingchen had just come out of court and on his way back, he met Gu Qingye who had just escaped from a brothel.

"Fourth brother, you are running away in such a hurry, could it be that you owe money to the brothel again?"

He had beaten and scolded his fourth brother, who was idle all day and had no knowledge.

But he is ultimately a hopeless case and is willing to spend his life in a muddle.

Although Gu Qingye was struck by his words, he changed the subject and said:

"Brother, don't worry about me for now.

Just now the servant came to tell me that my mother was in trouble, and I was about to rush back."

Gu Qingchen was startled and asked hurriedly:

"What's wrong with mother?"

Gu Qingye added fuel to the fire:

"I heard from the servant that my mother's eye disease recurred and there was no one to take care of her, so she fell down.

Later, when Aunt Gui came back from decocting medicine for her mother, she found her mother unconscious on the ground, so she went to ask a famous doctor to see her mother.

But who would have thought that the famous doctor who often treated my mother and prescribed medicine left overnight.

It seems that he is going to attend the annual Renshu Medical Conference, which is specifically for exchanging medical skills.

My mother has always been treated by a famous doctor and prescribed medicine. His passing was too sudden. What is my mother going to do in the future?"

Gu Qingchen frowned and said decisively:

"Fourth brother, there is more than one famous doctor in this huge capital.

You can ask around and ask around, and if you find anyone with good medical skills, please come back to the Marquis's mansion to treat your mother.

I'll go back and check the situation first."

The entire Marquis's Mansion seemed deserted, as if more than half of the people had suddenly left, leaving only a few elderly people in the mansion.

Gu Qingchen rushed to Suxin Garden exhausted and saw that his mother was pale and still unconscious.

Nanny Gui was taking good care of her, her eyes were red as if she had just cried.

Gu Qingchen questioned:

"Madame Gui, how could you leave my mother alone in the house?

Where have all the servants in this garden gone?"

Aunt Gui came forward tremblingly and cried:

"My Lord, you are finally back.

Except for a few old servants, almost no one in this mansion is willing to obey our orders.

Especially the servants that the lady brought as a dowry, all of them started to become rotten.”

Gu Qingchen's expression suddenly changed, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Song Wanyin, how dare she?

If anything happens to my mother, I will never forgive her!"
