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

Gu Qingchen's face was horrified, and he subconsciously clenched the purple flying swallow jade pendant hanging around his waist, and his eyes became sharp.

"Song Wanyin, what do you mean?

Since you have married into the Gu family, your dowry naturally belongs to the Gu family.

Haven't you put yourself in the right place yet?"

Song Wanyin sneered and said:

"Gu Qingchen, you didn't put yourself in the right position.

How much deficit have I filled for the Marquis's Mansion in the past three years?

Your mother is sick every other day and also suffers from eye disease. Just the medical treatment and medicine cost dozens or even hundreds of taels.

In addition, your career path will inevitably involve social interactions, and you will need money to bribe people everywhere.

Not only that, but also your two unmarried sisters and one brother, which one of them is easy to deal with?

Either she wants to buy gold and silver jewelry, rouge and powder, or she wants to go out and drink with her friends.

The daily expenses of the hundreds of people in the mansion, including food, clothing and daily expenses, would not be enough even if there was a mountain of gold."

The Marquis's Mansion may appear magnificent on the surface, but in reality it is just an empty shell, and everyone in the mansion is filled with parasites who depend on it for survival.

Since the old marquis passed away, almost all of the family property has been squandered by these unfilial children.

In order to revive the Marquis's Mansion, he coaxed and deceived her into marrying him, even though her parents had both passed away and she was left alone, and made her the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion.

Over the past three years, all of her dowry had been used to fill the huge hole in the Marquis's Mansion.

However, she was careful and did not touch the small box her mother gave her before she died.

That's for life-saving purposes.

Gu Qingchen ripped off the Purple Swallow Flying Jade Pendant from his waist, threw it back to her, and said impatiently:

"Song Wanyin, isn't it just a broken jade pendant?

Do you have to calculate it so clearly in front of me?

Ever since you married into the Gu family, the power of the family has been handed over to you.

You are in charge of all the major and minor matters in the mansion. What else are you dissatisfied with?

Fortunately, you are the legitimate daughter of the Grand Marshal's Mansion and have always been well-educated and well-mannered.

How did you become a petty person who haggles over everything?

I have been tolerant of you again and again, but when it comes to having children, can't you be more generous?

Don't bear the stigma of being jealous."

Song Wanyin couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

I never thought that all the sincerity I had given in the past three years would have been wasted.

The Marquis's Mansion is a cannibalistic place that specializes in taking advantage of people's sufferings. It is a place with ruthless and cruel people.

If it weren’t for his father, the Grand Marshal, who died in the line of duty defending his country.

She would not lose the support of her natal family and have to make a living on thin ice in the Gu family.

"Gu Qingchen, you must have a conscience.

On the wedding night, you started sleeping in a separate room from me despite being sick.

Less than a year after we got married, you took the initiative to ask His Majesty for permission to go to war.

I took care of all the affairs of the mansion by myself, working so hard that I became ill.

But you turned a deaf ear to me and wanted to marry another wife as soon as you came back from the war.

She also kept blaming me for not being able to conceive.

Is it that I can't get pregnant, or that you don't want me to get pregnant at all? "

Gu Qingchen frowned, his heart felt like it was shot by an arrow, piercing the pain and said:

"Song Wanyin, please stop being unreasonable.

Since ancient times, men have been in charge of external affairs and women have been in charge of internal affairs.

I have experienced so many births and deaths.

You just take care of the housework in the mansion and live a life of luxury.

What else do you want?

Can't you learn from Lan Yue and be a gentle and virtuous woman?

She is the person who understands me best in the world. I can't live without her."

Song Wanyin frowned slightly, feeling nauseous as if she had eaten a fly.

"Gu Qingchen, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning for saying this?

I was the one who took care of the old marquis's funeral and ensured that he was buried with dignity.

Your mother was on the verge of death several times, and it was I who spent a lot of money and invited famous doctors to save her life.

Now that you have returned home with honors and achievements, do you want to cross the river and burn the bridge?"

Gu Qingchen was speechless after being rebuked by her. Thinking that he did feel guilty towards her, he said helplessly:

"There's no point in saying more, this matter is already a done deal.

I hope you can treat Lanyue well in the future.

Don't worry, I won't divorce you."

After saying this, without waiting for her to speak, he turned away.

When the servants saw Gu Qingchen leave, they stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.

Song Wanyin said coldly:

"What are you still doing here? Move your things back to where they came from."

The servants were so frightened that they pissed and shit themselves, sweating profusely, but they carefully carried these valuables back.

Song Wanyin lowered her eyes and smiled softly. Gu Qingchen would naturally not divorce her.

After all, all the daily expenses of the Marquis's Mansion now depend on her dowry.

No matter how stupid the Gu family is, they would not be so foolish as to abandon her, their cash cow.

After returning to the dormitory, Tian Cheng said with a sad face:

"Girl, if you have a falling out with your uncle, how are you going to live in the future?

Wouldn't that give the mistress an opportunity to take advantage of it?

You've been running the Marquis's Mansion for so many years that your health has been ruined.

I never thought that my son-in-law not only doesn't cherish you, but also devalues ​​you to the point of being worthless.

If the master and the old lady knew about this, they would be so sad. "

When Song Wanyin mentioned her parents, her heart ached.

My father has been your Majesty's study companion since childhood. He has been with your Majesty through thick and thin, rescued your Majesty from a pile of dead bodies, and made outstanding military achievements.

His Majesty appointed my father as the Grand Marshal of the current dynasty, in charge of the military power of the Nanjing Kingdom.

Later, in order to quell the war and protect the country, my father took the initiative to ask for permission to go to the battlefield. He eventually won a great victory, but he died on the battlefield.

After learning the news of his death, his mother fell ill and before she died she divided all the family property into two parts.

Part of it was given to the eldest son Song Wanfeng, and the other part was left to her.

In order to revive the family's prosperity, the eldest brother resolutely picked up his spear, went to the battlefield, and wanted to make a name for himself.

I still remember the last words my mother said to her.

"Wan Yin, don't open the things in this small box unless you have no other choice.

Don’t tell this secret to anyone, you’ll have to keep it to yourself forever.”

Song Wanyin secretly made up her mind that it was because of this couple in her previous life that she suffered a lot.

She didn't want to repeat the same mistake and make things difficult for others.

"Tiancheng, go to the accounting office and bring over all the account books for the past three years.

It’s time to settle old and new accounts.”

When Tiancheng heard this, his face suddenly changed and he exclaimed.

"Girl, what do you want to do?

Feng Ge'er is still fighting on the frontier.

There is no one to support us in my family.

If you completely fall out with your son-in-law.

I’m afraid it will be even more difficult for you to gain a foothold in the Marquis’ Mansion in the future.”

Song Wanyin looked calm, with a hint of sneer on his face.

"Gu Qingchen is not worthy of being the son-in-law of the Song family, and he and I have long been strangers.

I will smile and watch everyone in the Marquis's Mansion cry."
