Reborn, meet you again!
Chapter 20 It's Not a Bad Thing
At this time, in Song Wan's room, Luluo was massaging Song Wan's shoulders and speaking happily.
"Miss, today we are grateful for Madam Fang's help. Otherwise, it would have taken a lot of effort to make Madam so happy."
"Now, all the money in the palace and the rewards that my son-in-law received have been exchanged for things that are useless and difficult to sell."
"If the young lady can really divorce her son-in-law, I wonder how the Marquis's Mansion can maintain its dignity!"
After all, these things were ordered by Madam Pei in the name of the Marquis' Mansion, and have nothing to do with the young lady.
Song Wan felt the strong force coming from her shoulder and couldn't help laughing.
"Look how happy you are!"
"If you didn't know, you would think we were distributing our monthly allowance today!"
Luoluo listened to the young lady's jokes with a smile on her face.
"Of course! For the past three years, the Marquis's family has been enjoying the young lady's wealth, but as soon as the son-in-law returned, they acted as if they looked down on the young lady."
"Those servants in the mansion are still trying to curry favor with Miss Shen. It makes me angry just watching."
"Now that I'm about to vent my anger, I'm happier than if I had received my monthly salary!"
But as Luoluo was speaking, she seemed to have thought of something and said with some worry after realizing it belatedly.
"But miss, what should we do next?"
"If the Marquis' Mansion is short of money, they will be even more reluctant to let you go..."
"Are you...really sure that the Marquis' Mansion will agree to the divorce?"
Song Wan's eyes were full of determination.
"nature!"
The evidence my father has is no small matter.
As long as Lord Pei is not senile, he will know what to choose.
Hong Chang hasn't returned from delivering a letter today, so I don't know what's going on...
Judging from the formation of the black-armored guards today, the situation in the court must have changed completely.
My father must not be saddened by her death any longer. He must cheer up quickly...
……
It was not until the sun had set and Song Wan had already started having dinner that Hong Chang walked in from outside, looking cold.
Song Wan quickly put down her chopsticks and asked.
"How is it?"
Hong Chang nodded seriously.
"Don't worry, Miss, it's all done!"
"When I went to look for someone, I wore a veil and hat, so no one could see my face. I also took a detour and found a place to change clothes before returning. No one should have noticed me."
Song Wan finally felt relieved after hearing this.
I hope this letter...can be delivered to my father smoothly...
She believed that her father would understand what she meant.
Thinking of this, Song Wan felt better. He asked Hong Chang to go back and wash up properly. After warming up her body, she continued to eat with a good appetite.
It was at this time that Pei Qingyan came over.
Seeing that Song Wan started eating without waiting for him, Pei Qingyan felt a little unhappy, but he didn't say it directly, otherwise he would seem stingy as a man. So he just sat down without saying a word, waiting for Jiang Wanqiao to talk to him and serve the food.
After all, that's what she did before.
But after he sat down, he only saw Jiang Wanqiao eating happily by herself. Even the girl named Luluo beside her was watching him with her eyes and nose, and had no intention of serving him the food.
I just don't know if it was because he was looking at the beauty under the lamp, or because he had just fallen in love with Shen Jiahe and couldn't get relief.
Pei Qingyan felt that Jiang Wanqiao looked particularly charming tonight.
Under the candlelight, she looked a little softer than usual, and her snow-white skin seemed to be shining with a faint luster.
Pei Qingyan had to admit that his mother was right.
Jiang Wanqiao's appearance did not disgrace him.
Even Shen Jiahe, who was still a boudoir dweller at the time, could not compare to her even 70%.
Realizing that he was distracted, Pei Qingyan couldn't help but cough twice.
Forget it, she is a woman after all, so just give her a way out.
He suppressed the displeasure in his heart and spoke slowly.
"Didn't Ping An tell you I was coming over today?"
Song Wan didn't even raise her eyelids, and just said perfunctorily.
"I told you."
Pei Qingyan was a little dissatisfied when he saw her nonchalant look.
"I've already said that, how can you start eating before I even get there?"
Song Wan finally looked up at him.
"Why not? Isn't this the rule of the Marquis' Mansion?"
Pei Qingyan was stunned for a moment by Song Wan's words, and then he thought of what happened at breakfast that day, and the unhappiness in his heart suddenly emerged again.
It's really just a good-looking face!
But thinking of his mother's instructions, he still spoke patiently.
“Managing the inner house requires an open mind and an inclusive attitude.”
"You are so petty, holding grudges over trivial matters. How can you be worthy of the important role of the Marquis's Madam in the future? How can I trust you to manage the inner courtyard of the Marquis's Mansion?"
"In the future, you have to change your temper."
Song Wan had almost finished eating by this time, so she simply put down her chopsticks, took the handkerchief handed to her by Lu Luo, and wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully.
Then, she casually threw the handkerchief in her hand onto the table and said bluntly.
"Why change it? Since General Pei thinks I'm not worthy of this family, then I won't be one."
"Luluo, bring the matching cards from the mansion back to General Pei."
The betrothal gift issue has been settled today, so there is naturally no need for her to indulge the people in the Marquis' Mansion anymore.
After hearing what the young lady said, Luoluo took the pair of cards without any hesitation, and imitated the young lady's action of throwing the handkerchief just now, and threw the pair of cards in front of Pei Qingyan in annoyance.
"Sir, this is a pair of cards! Please keep them!"
Pei Qingyan looked at the rude actions of the master and servant and was unable to react for a moment.
But he still questioned subconsciously.
"Jiang Wanqiao, what do you mean?"
Song Wanmin smiled, looking innocent.
"Didn't the general just say that he was unsure about leaving the Marquis' Mansion to me?"
"I think what the general said is very reasonable! I am not only rude in my words and deeds, but also narrow-minded and vindictive. The Marquis's Mansion is so large and powerful that it is difficult for me to take on such an important task."
"To avoid bringing shame to the Marquisate in the future, I'd better return the cards today. Please, General, return them to Madam Pei for me. By the way, please tell Madam Pei that from today on, I will no longer interfere in any of the Marquisate's affairs, big or small!"
"Does this suit General Pei's wishes?"
Pei Qingyan frowned and looked at the pair of cards falling heavily in front of him.
Suddenly it occurred to me that she was threatening her mother with this today, asking her mother to persuade him?
This is outrageous! How could he indulge her bad habits?
"Jiang Wanqiao, what are you doing?"
"I just gave you some kind words of advice, and you acted like this. Who are you showing this to?"
Song Wan looked at the man in front of her leisurely.
"How can I be said to be throwing a tantrum? To use General Pei's words, I am self-aware."
"Didn't the General say that day that even without me, Old Madam Pei, Madam Pei, and even Miss Pei could still support this family?"
"In that case, wouldn't it be a happy ending for me, an 'incompetent man', to hand over the stewardship?"
"Or... I think Miss Shen has the style of a noble family. Now that he has moved into the mansion, there is no need to consider so many rules. It would be fine to let Miss Shen take over the housekeeper's power."
"We're all a family from now on, so we can avoid the hassle of coming and going in the future."
When Pei Qingyan heard her mention Shen Jiahe, a flash of understanding suddenly came to his mind.
She knew that she was still brooding over Jiahe's entry into the family.
But the way she was being so jealous was really ugly.
"I know you're jealous of Jiahe, but the bond between her and me dates back to our youth, and it's something that not many people can compare to."
"You don't need to test me here. Jiahe said that she doesn't want the position of legal wife, and she won't compete with you for it!"
"I admit that what you said last time was not entirely unreasonable. For the past three years, you have been managing the Marquis' Mansion and fulfilling your filial duties on my behalf. Although I cannot say that you have done anything meritorious, you have certainly worked hard. I, Pei Qingyan, am not an ungrateful person. I appreciate your kindness."
Pei Qingyan's tone gradually softened as he spoke.
He came here today to consummate his marriage with Jiang Wanqiao, so there was no need to make the scene too awkward.
But there are some things... it's better to make them clear all at once today.
Pei Qingyan thought about it and continued patiently.
"I can promise you that as long as you behave yourself and wholeheartedly assist your mother in managing the Marquis's residence, the position of legal wife will always be yours! I will also give you all the respect you deserve."
"Since we've come this far today, I'll just open up and talk to you."
"As the legal wife, if there is an imperial decree in the future, it will naturally fall on you. In this way, I will be indebted to Jiahe. Therefore, if I get a title in the future, it will be inherited by Jiahe's children. This way, it will be fair."
"Don't worry. After we consummate our marriage, if you become pregnant with a child for the Marquisate, I will treat you equally and teach you diligently. If he has a promising future, I will also support him and give him the opportunity to achieve success and build a career, which will also bring honor to your Jiang family."
"Do you understand what I'm saying?"
Pei Qingyan felt that his considerations were the best arrangement for Jiang Wanqiao.
Although he didn't like her, he wasn't such a cruel person. Since he had decided to consummate the marriage with her, she would be his woman after today.
As long as she stops acting up, it wouldn't be a bad idea to keep her around.
