Abandoned daughter takes charge of the family, so rich that even the best people can't envy

Chapter 421: Calculations are Everywhere

As soon as Su Mo went out, he was harassed by the third wave of women and finally realized that something was wrong.

"What's going on? Are these women crazy?"

In the past, girls would occasionally approach him, but he would just put on a sullen face and ignore them. Girls were shy, so they would blush and run away.

But today, even if I walked ten steps outside, it felt like I was in a brothel. It was impossible to move forward.

There were actually people who drugged him and put aphrodisiacs in his arms in the street and threw themselves into his arms. It was unbelievable and shameless.

Su Mo was originally going to look for Song Jinxiu, but seeing the increasing number of female relatives in front of him, he couldn't lead a group of women to see Jinxiu, right? That would be too embarrassing.

Moreover, today's incident was really strange. He turned back to the mansion and ordered, "Go and find out who is causing trouble. Also, find out which brothel those women are from and have them shut down for me."

The guard took the order and left, returning in a moment.

"Master, we have found out that these women are not prostitutes, nor are they bad people. One of them is the daughter of a clerk, one is the daughter of the music department of the Ministry of Rites, and the other is the sister of the craftsman of the Ministry of Works."

Su Qi asked curiously, "Although the fathers and brothers of these women are only low-ranking officials, they are still considered wives of officials. They even dared to harass the prince's wife who was about to get married. Are all the wives of officials in the capital so crazy nowadays?"

The guard said, "According to the sister of the engineer in charge of the Ministry of Works, they attended a women's poetry gathering yesterday, and someone at the gathering revealed that Master..."

Su Mo raised his eyes and glanced at him, "Why are you hesitating? Speak."

"Yes," the guard touched his nose and said, "They said that the master wants to shoulder the responsibility of two wives. Since the master wants to shoulder the responsibility of two wives, then they all have hope. Whoever gives birth to a son for the master first will become the mistress of the Zhenguogong Mansion in the future."

"Bang!" Su Mo slammed the table. "Taking charge of two families? They really dare to think so!"

The twelve guards looked at each other in bewilderment. If they were to say, it would be nice if the master could take charge of two branches. This Duke Zhenguo Mansion can't really be extinct, right?

Su Qi said dissatisfiedly: "Don't these people really dare to think so? They don't even consider their status. They are not qualified to be my concubines."

Su Ba also frowned and said, "That's right. Even if our master is to take on the responsibility of taking on two wives, it has to be after the wedding, not before. Wouldn't that make this wife the eldest and the daughter the youngest?"

Su Mo glared at him. "What do you mean by big or small? Are you joining in the trouble? It's obvious that someone wants to ruin the marriage between me and the princess. Humph, why don't you go check it out?"

Junjun was busy playing the game of chase with Xiaobai, so Song Jinxiu had to send the secret guards out to investigate.

The secret guards returned with varying expressions and said to Song Jinxiu, "Master, the Zhenguo Mansion was surrounded by a group of young ladies. The Crown Princess' husband had a few of the ringleaders taken to the Jingzhao Yin, and now the situation has calmed down a bit."

Surrounded by a group of women? Combining what Junjun said, Song Jinxiu frowned: Su Mo was being harassed nakedly?

The secret guard said, "Even so, there are still some young ladies who refuse to leave and hang around the Zhenguo Mansion.

Some old people couldn't stand it and scolded these young ladies, saying that it was immoral and inappropriate for women to show up in public and look for men.

Those young ladies said: "Your Highness, as a woman, can request a wedding on her own. They take you as an example and follow your example."

Follow me?

Song Jinxiu couldn't help but knock on the table with her hand, a cold look in her eyes.

It seems like someone is targeting me on purpose.

I requested a grand marriage and told His Majesty about this in the Imperial Study. At that time, besides the Emperor, there were only Eunuch Hai and Qi Chenghua in the Imperial Study.

The emperor won't tell anyone, and Eunuch Hai and Qi Chenghua won't tell anyone either. How could these lowly officials' families who can't even enter the court have the chance to know about this?

Who spread this?

Could it be...

Su Chuan said angrily: "These people are so shameless. Our master already has an engagement. What does it have to do with them if the wedding is earlier or later?

Yingchun also said angrily, "It seems to me that they are clearly coveting our son-in-law and the power of the Zhenguo Mansion. They are blocking the door to chase men, but they don't even consider who they are coveting. How many heads are worth chopping off?"

Song Jinxiu sighed. She knew that some people were unhappy with her being the Crown Princess. They didn't have the courage to say it out loud, so they could only cause trouble for her from time to time.

Using this method is really too childish.

Song Jinxiu said: "I have given you my oral instructions. I have one son (daughter), who is the crown prince's granddaughter. I have two sons (daughters). The second son (daughter) has the surname Su and is the eldest son (daughter) of the Duke of Zhenguo."

Isn't it just for the position of Duke of Zhenguo? Now that I have lost all thoughts, I should just let it go.

When Song Jinxiu said this, some people were happy while others were sad.

Needless to say, the old steward and the twelve guards of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion were very happy.

The home of Li Biao, the former director of the Imperial Medical Service.

Li Wan walked into her brother's yard angrily.

"Second sister-in-law, it was you who spread the news that the Duke of Zhenguo wanted to take on the responsibility of managing two wives, right? Now the capital is buzzing with news, and many wives of officials are tempted. If this continues, what role will I have?"

It was originally agreed that they would make a splash at the poetry meeting, and then, like Chen Yaer before, marry into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion as the most talented woman in Cangwu.

But now, this second sister-in-law, who is more likely to cause trouble than to help, actually spread such an important matter.

"Tell me, what are you thinking? You should know that if it weren't for me, how could you marry my second brother with your status?"

Wang Leling glanced at her sister-in-law and drank her tea slowly.

Li Wan's second sister-in-law is Wang Leling, the daughter of Wang Youzhi, the former magistrate of Lunshan County.

Back then, Wang Leling was indeed marrying up when she married into the Li family.

But now Li Biao is no longer the chief judge of the Imperial Medical Service.

Although her father was still the county magistrate, the noble lady said that as long as she obeyed her orders, her father could be promoted to the fifth rank of Tongzhi.

Wang Leling put down the teacup and said with a smile, "You just can't keep your composure. Second sister-in-law is doing this for your own good."

Li Wan looked at her suspiciously.

Wang Leling winked at the maid.

The maid smiled, pulled Li Wan's maid out, and closed the door.

Li Wan was even more suspicious.

Wang Leling then said, "If the Duke of Zhenguo wants to take a second wife, it definitely can't be now. At the very least, it should be after the other one gives birth to a child."

Li Wan showed an anxious expression: How long does she have to wait for that person to give birth to the child?

Wang Leling soothed him, "Good things are never too late. You can take this opportunity to ask your wife to write more poems. Let's spread your reputation as a talented woman first. Then things will be easier in the future."

Li Wan still had a frown on her face, looking unwilling.

Too long to wait.
