Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore
Chapter 200 Seeking a Way to Survive
Song Wanyin frowned slightly, she didn't expect Aunt Shen to be so cruel. She turned and looked at Hua Muxue. After thinking for a moment, she opened her red lips slightly:
"Xu Qianqian, I can find a way for you to survive. Not only will it ensure that you will have enough food and drink for the rest of your life, but it will also allow you and your sister to escape from Aunt Shen's control forever."
When Xu Qianqian heard this, she knelt down in front of her and begged with tears in her eyes:
"Please give me your instructions, my lady. As long as it can save my brother and me from this dire situation, I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Seeing that she was really scared, Song Wanyin, fortunately, had known her situation for a long time, suggested:
"I heard that you have a distant cousin who is now a minister of the court. You two have been childhood sweethearts since you were young. If Aunt Shen hadn't wanted to put you in my eldest brother's room, you wouldn't have been separated.
It would be better for my sister-in-law to come forward and arrange this marriage for you. As for your dowry, it will all be paid by the Taiwei Mansion.
Later, I will ask my eldest brother to talk to your father about your marriage, and find an auspicious date for you to marry in style."
Hua Muxue was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect her sister to know so much about Xu Qianqian's affairs. She immediately felt confident and said:
"Xu Qianqian, if you are really willing to admit your mistakes and correct them, I am willing to help you and your brother escape from the sea of suffering."
Xu Qianqian couldn't ask for more, and said with joy:
"I am willing to do so. I would like to thank the county lady and the lady for their great kindness.
As long as I can escape from my stepmother's control, I would be willing to marry a commoner."
Seeing that she was quite sensible, Song Wanyin ordered:
"You should leave first. You'd better behave yourself these few days. After I make all the arrangements here, Aunt Shen won't dare to do anything to you."
Xu Qianqian kowtowed profusely in gratitude and left trembling with fear.
Hua Muxue still said with lingering fear:
"Sister, although we have solved a big problem right now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to Aunt Shen."
Song Wanyin came up with a plan and comforted her:
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, I have a way to make Aunt Shen give up.
The most urgent thing is to prepare a dowry list first. I will go find my eldest brother and ask him to go and discuss this matter with my uncle."
Three days later, the weather was fine and the breeze was not dry.
Song Wanyin, dressed in a light-colored silk dress, sat gracefully on a stone bench in the courtyard, savoring sweet dew cakes, plum pastries, and green cloud cakes, chatting and laughing with her sister-in-law beside her while admiring her two little nephews practicing martial arts.
"Sister-in-law, I heard from Mr. Ning that Ziyu and Ziyi's academic performance has been good recently. I didn't expect that they are also quite good at martial arts.
In the future, they will inherit my elder brother's legacy, serve the court, and become the pillars of the Nanjing Kingdom."
Hua Muxue was wearing a dignified and appropriate dress. She looked at her two sons practicing martial arts in the courtyard with a doting face. Their manners and temperament were exactly the same as Song Wanfeng's.
"As a parent, I naturally hope that my children can succeed when they grow up, but I also just hope that they can be safe and sound, and that they can be as outstanding as their father in the future. That will be enough."
Song Ziyu and Song Ziyi held wooden swords and demonstrated the fighting skills in a very professional manner under the guidance of their martial arts master.
Although their movements are still a little immature, they have a very strong learning ability and a photographic memory.
Song Wanyin ate the plum cake while looking at the cute looks of her nephews and couldn't help but smile:
"Sister-in-law, look at Ziyu and Ziyi. They really have a talent for martial arts. They will surpass you in the future."
Hua Muxue's face was filled with a longing smile, but she suddenly remembered something and said worriedly:
"Sister, after your eldest brother went to discuss Xu Qianqian's marriage with his uncle, the Xu family didn't make any move. It's really worrying."
Song Wanyin was about to speak, but she saw Aunt Shen coming over with a fierce look, and whispered:
"Sister-in-law, it seems that there is news from the Xu family. It seems that Aunt Shen wants to settle accounts with us."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yuanqing came over angrily and scolded Hua Muxue:
"Hua Muxue, what do you mean? How can you be so jealous that you can't tolerate my Xu Qianqian and send her away? Have you asked for my opinion? Do you still have me as an elder in your eyes?"
Hua Muxue immediately stood up, nodded slightly to her, and explained:
"Aunt Shen, a gentleman should help others to achieve their goals. I also want to find a good family for my cousin to live with for the rest of her life.
My cousin has a childhood sweetheart, a distant cousin who is said to be a councillor. He will have a smooth career and a bright future.
Shen Yuanqing pointed at her nose and angrily yelled:
"You are so cunning and scheming! Don't think you can get rid of my concubine's daughter with this trick. I will never agree to that marriage."
Song Wanyin elegantly put down the plum cake in her hand and chuckled:
"Aunt Shen, this marriage is already a done deal, there's no point in you saying more.
What's more, your concubine's daughter has climbed into my eldest brother's bed. If I don't marry her off, do I have to keep her in the mansion to destroy the relationship between my brother and sister-in-law?"
Shen Yuanqing was so angry that his face turned red, and he couldn't speak clearly:
"You, you are talking nonsense! Just ask yourself, which nobleman in the world doesn't have three wives and four concubines? I asked your sister-in-law to accept Xu Qianqian, and I was thinking about her in every way.
Considering that she had just arrived and was not very familiar with the affairs of the mansion, I specially found an assistant to share more of the work with her.
Even if a man loves a woman, once the novelty wears off, he will become bored with her and will only favor other women.
Especially since your sister-in-law is busy taking care of the household affairs and taking care of two children, she doesn't have much time and energy to accompany your eldest brother.
Your elder brother will definitely need someone to meet his needs in that regard when the time comes."
Song Wanyin sneered:
"Aunt Shen, since you are such a good actor, why don't you go and sing Liyuanxiang Opera?
You forced Xu Qianqian on my brother and sister-in-law. I'm sure you and I both know the purpose. Why bother exposing the truth?
To put it bluntly, Xu Qianqian's status is humble, and her life and death are in the hands of the Song family.
The Song family has given her the greatest gift by marrying her off. If you continue to pester me here, don't blame the Song family for kicking you out of the house as well!"
Shen Yuanqing felt a surge of hatred in his heart. Without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves and walked forward, ready to tear her mouth apart, angrily shouting:
"You little bitch, how dare you talk to me in this tone? I'll teach you a lesson!"
Seeing this, Tiancheng immediately rushed forward and tried his best to stop her.
Shen Yuanqing slapped Tian Cheng to the ground, pointed at her nose and cursed:
"You are such a brave little slave, you actually dare to stop me?"
Song Wanyin immediately winked at Mitao, who immediately understood what she meant and rushed forward, restraining her effortlessly.
"Aunt Shen, if you dare to bully others in the Taiwei Mansion again, don't blame me for declaring you insane, nailing your doors and windows shut, and imprisoning you in a small dark room forever."
