Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 421: The Downtrodden Daughter Goes Crazy After Rebirth (26)
The housekeeper was in charge of all matters, big and small, at the banquet in the mansion, while Wen and Shi Qing entertained the female relatives of the aristocratic families together.
Although everyone was a little surprised at Wen's resurrection, who knew the secrets of the family?
Wen was very thoughtful and had snacks prepared for the guests. There were also many flowers in the mansion for people to enjoy.
The female members of the family prepared to have everyone play the piano. They were distinguished guests that were difficult to invite on ordinary days, and even if the family had money, they might not be able to invite them.
If you can take this opportunity to learn a thing or two and gain the appreciation of Mr. Su, it will also be beneficial to your future marriage.
After all, Mrs. Su had been praised by the Empress Dowager. Whenever there was an important banquet, the ministers in the capital would invite Mrs. Su, but few people could get the invitation.
For the male guests, a great scholar was invited out of seclusion to explain interesting academic stories. Although the banquet had not yet begun, both the host and the guests were in high spirits.
After finishing her previous work, Wen Shi had time to sit down with Shi Qing. She stroked Shi Qing's hand and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Wen'er, a lot of noble families have come to us these past few days to ask for marriage. Mother wants to know what the relationship is between Wen'er and Master Chu?"
She could see that Chu Zhiyan was interested in Jingwen, but she wanted to hear her daughter's opinion. If it was someone her daughter liked, it would be a perfect marriage for both parties.
Shi Qing said frankly, "Today many eyes are staring at our Imperial Censorate, but mother, don't worry, Master Chu and I are in love, but he hasn't come to visit yet, so some things can be discussed later."
Wen nodded. This was perfect. She wanted to return all the engagement letters sent by other noble families. Now that her daughter was already taken, she would not allow anyone to have any ideas about her.
"So, very good."
The mother and daughter were chatting happily when someone said, "Look, it's Old Madam Ruan."
Shi Qing narrowed her eyes. She remembered that she had not invited the old hag over. It seemed that she came uninvited, and she must be trying to cause trouble.
"Wen, you are still alive. You are truly a scourge that has plagued us for thousands of years."
Old Mrs. Ruan came over with her daughter Ruan Mengyun and a group of maids. She had a haughty look on her face, and when her eyes fell on Wen, she looked at her with disgust and criticism.
Thinking of the incident at Baiyun Temple, Old Mrs. Ruan became even more upset. Mengyun and her daughter wanted to prevent Wen from coming back, so they set fire to Baiyun Temple.
Thinking that it would be a matter of hurting the enemy by a thousand and hurting herself by eight hundred, Old Lady Ruan comforted herself that as long as the Wen family was eliminated, the truth of that year could be covered up.
As for Ruan Mengyun and Liu Yuyan, they can always be rescued.
Unexpectedly, Wen Shi was unharmed and even became the wife of the Censor in a glorious manner. The rumors she spread in the capital were blocked by her good son.
Shi Qing saw Wen's body stiffen slightly and whispered.
"Mom, we can't show our weakness. All these years, it's because of this old woman that our family has been separated. She even wants to kill us. Do we have to continue to endure it?"
She secretly complained in her heart, Mother, please stand up straight. It’s enough to be stepped on once, and you still have to take revenge!
After all, the original owner, Ruan Jingwen, did not have a good ending. She was displaced throughout her life, no one sympathized with her, and she was helpless for half her life.
Wen adjusted her expression calmly and said sarcastically.
"Isn't mother still alive? You did all those filthy things, but you didn't even want to die by banging your head against the wall. So, of course I have to live well."
Old Mrs. Ruan was enraged and raised her hand to hit Wen on the cheek.
Shi Qing pushed her away, his voice tinged with anger.
"Grandma, I know you don't like Mom and haven't allowed us to return home for years, but we are family after all. You allowed my aunt to set fire to my Mom and now that Mom is finally safe, do you really want her to die?"
When the guests of the Ruan family heard the gossip, they all gathered around, their faces full of expressions of wanting to watch the fun.
After all, in the past, only Censor Ruan wrote memorials to impeach the ministers, and this was the first time that gossip about Censor Ruan was heard.
It’s really exciting.
There were sounds of discussion all around, and the expressions on everyone's faces were particularly clear.
"I heard that the Liu family's eldest wife, Ruan family's eldest sister-in-law, and her daughter went to Baiyun Temple to set fire two days ago and were imprisoned."
"At the time, everyone speculated that he had offended someone, but I never expected that he was going to kill the Censor's wife. This person's heart is truly dark."
"It's really not easy for Madam Censor and the eldest daughter. It seems that they have been persecuted since returning home ten years ago!"
Shi Qing took in everyone's expressions and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
With Wen's involvement, Mrs. Ruan won't be able to show off her power today, but she will be able to lose face.
"That was what they did, mother and daughter. There must be a misunderstanding. What evidence do you have to accuse Meng Yun of persecuting you? Everything requires evidence! If you continue to talk nonsense, don't blame me for calling the family law!"
Old Mrs. Ruan was very emotional. If there hadn't been so many guests, she would have had Wen taken away.
This damn bitch is so lucky that she didn't die back then. This time when she returns to Beijing, she will definitely make sure that Wen Shi doesn't have a good end.
Wen said coldly, "Old Madam, I won't hold a grudge against you for the past. If you come to watch the ceremony today, we at the Censorate welcome you. If you continue to be aggressive, don't blame us for being rude."
Old Mrs. Ruan was so angry that she could not stand it, and the trusted nanny beside her comforted her.
"Madam, please let her go for once. We can reprimand her when we see the master. There are so many people here today. If rumors spread that are unfavorable to you, it will be more trouble than it is worth."
Old Mrs. Ruan was indignant and hated Wen even more.
However, Mengyun and Yuyan were implicated by this bitch, and their lives in their husband's family were not easy.
Today, I am alone and helpless, and I am afraid that I will be suppressed...
After all, Old Lady Ruan came from the harem, and she knew when to advance and when to retreat. It would be enough for her to win over this illegitimate son, and it would not be too late to deal with this mother and daughter later.
"Forget it, I won't bother with you. Today I'm giving a gift to Jingwen. There's no need for us to be so estranged as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law."
Wen looked at the maid and ordered, "Come here, take the old lady to the banquet hall."
Then he said to Old Mrs. Ruan.
"We have many guests today. Please forgive me if there is anything I am not considerate of."
Old Lady Ruan said with a forced smile, "Of course I don't blame you, go and get busy."
After the old lady left, the guests dispersed immediately. After all, it was not good to see the host's house being so lively.
However, the capital will be very lively in the future.
Shi Qing said to Wen Shi with a smile, "The old lady suffered a setback today and will definitely seek revenge. Mother can use this opportunity to completely sever the relationship between Dad and the old lady."
From then on, the Wen family was left without anyone to supervise them.
Listening to Shi Qing's words, Wen felt sorry for her daughter. Jingwen was smart and must have suffered a lot over the years.
"Qingqing, mother must have done good deeds in her past life to have such a wonderful daughter like you."
Shi Qing leaned on her mother's shoulder and said coquettishly, "The mother my daughter has chosen is naturally the best woman in the world. It's good for you, and it's good for us all!"
The butler's voice was heard outside the mansion, and the crowd became restless.
"The General's Mansion is here to give gifts."
As soon as the butler finished speaking, the Fang family and the second prince came into everyone's sight.
