Except for the people around Mrs. Cen, the only people left in the room were Su Yiqing and Aunt Zhou.

After a while, there was a noise outside the door.

The people around Su Yixiang were not found. Instead, Mrs. Xu got the news from someone unknown and came over like a gust of wind.

When Mrs. Xu entered the door, she covered her face with a handkerchief and cried, saying that she had expected Aunt Liu to be a disaster. The Third Master was a grown man who only cared about his own happiness and had so many women but couldn't control any of them.

No one can worry about having concubines in the same house. Fortunately, they are all from the family. They are married to each other, have no children, and cannot afford to live in trouble. As a result, Aunt Liu is provoked like this. A girl from an official family has a long life.

In the inner courtyard of the deep house, he can actually... It can be seen that he is a man of means and courage. Now something happened, right? She knew that fortunately Brother Ming blocked the disaster for Brother Xu. Originally, she did not dare to complain anymore.

What, how can I harm my daughter?

Her poor daughter had to bear such accusations at such a young age and was pointed out by others. How could she talk about marriage in the future? Everyone in the house thought that she was the one who caused Brother Ming's harm. Words of mouth would make a fortune, and Brother Xu would be better off when he grows up.

How do you say kiss? That girl from a good family is willing to honor such an evil mother-in-law?

The Xu family is clearly crying for the Su Yiqing brothers and sisters, but every sentence is alluding to Mrs. Cen.

Mrs. Cen's calm face turned gloomy again. Everything else was fine. Brother Xu had limited qualifications and he had a well-known shrew like Mrs. Xu. It would definitely be difficult to get married in the future, so he had to take a lower position. Now that he is in this position.

However, Mrs. Xu can completely shirk the responsibility, as if her bad reputation was all caused by this incident.

"Okay, isn't it just a little rumor? Don't worry, Brother Xu is the son of the uncle's house. How come he can't find a good girl? This matter will be taken care of by me, an old woman." Mrs. Cen said almost through gritted teeth.

This is what I said.

Mrs. Xu choked and said, "Thank you, mother."

Su Yiqing watched coldly, knowing that Xu's goal was achieved. During this period, she also heard some rumors, saying that Brother Xu had reached the age to talk about marriage. As a result, he tried several houses in a row, and everyone shook their heads, but Brother Ming did not.

Before the incident happened, the matchmaker broke through the door frame.

Mrs. Cen has many children and grandchildren, including outstanding ones like Ming Ge, her eldest grandson Su Jinfeng, who is studying in a local academy and is said to be very knowledgeable, and several lovely Yuxue grandchildren who are at a fun age. How can they care about their qualifications?

What about the mediocre Brother Xu? Besides, what are Brother Xu's conditions? There is such a vicious mother. If she comes forward to propose marriage, in the future, if a new daughter-in-law comes in, if she is bullied too much, her natal family will inevitably have trouble, and the Xu family will also

If she's noisy, just let her go and let Xu find whatever she likes.

Now Mrs. Xu has forced Mrs. Cen to promise that she will hire a girl with good family status and good conditions. Looking at talent alone, she will definitely not like Brother Xu, so she can only look at the uncle's house.

The uncle's house will inevitably have to agree to many requests from others, and this is what marriages of interest are like.

At this time, the mother-in-law reported back and said that the fourth lady had arrived.

Mrs. Xu wiped her tears with a handkerchief and pulled Su Yiqing aside.

The fourth wife, Mrs. Chen, knelt down beside Mrs. Cen as soon as she entered the house and apologized, saying that she was not disciplined enough and allowed the maid and mother-in-law to talk nonsense, causing her daughter to talk nonsense.

Mrs. Cen didn't speak at first, half-closing her eyes. After Mrs. Chen admitted her mistake for a long time, she said lightly, "There are more people in the fourth house, and the fourth brother is running outside all day long. The evil slave bullies the master, so

It’s really hard for you.”

Mrs. Chen stared at Mrs. Cen in confusion, a little confused about the situation. She didn't think that Mrs. Cen would let this matter go so lightly.

Sure enough, Mrs. Cen's next sentence was: "The Cuixiu and Yuzhu around me are very good. You can take them back later, lift the aunt, and let them help manage the trivial matters. You should discipline Ba Yatou, a girl."

She is about to reach the age of proposing marriage, but she is still so unabashed and is being instigated by her servants. Fortunately, this is her own home. If she goes outside, the reputation of the entire uncle's house will be ruined by her."

Mrs. Chen felt bitter in her heart and didn't want to accept it, but her daughter had made such a big mistake, so she had to accept it. She could only bring Cuixiu and Yuzhu back with a bitter face.

Just as she was about to leave, Mrs. Cen said again: "All the maids and women around Eight Yatou will be beaten twenty times and sent to the village to see who else they will chat with."

Chen took the order and went out.

Later, Mrs. Xu also pulled Su Yiqing to leave.

After going out, they heard only miserable cries from the maids and women beside Su Yixiang. They were dragged out on the spot, and they were not even given their luggage. They were tied up and sent to the village.

When Su Yiqing heard this, she felt guilty and chilled again. Until now, Brother Ming's matter has not been explained in detail, but it has implicated a large number of unrelated servants.

In fact, there were so many people in the mansion who thought Xu was doing the trick, and there were also some who talked about it privately, but they didn't expose it, and it was Su Yixiang who said it now. There was no need for those maids and women to say anything in front of Su Yixiang. The only possibility was

Mrs. Chen said that, and Mrs. Chen just brought two more aunts back. Anyway, there are quite a few concubines in Mr. Su’s room, so these two are not missing.

Su Yiqing was brought back to her small courtyard by Mrs. Xu.

The maids and women around them were all drunk away, leaving only Su Yiqing and Xu in the room.

Xu looked at Su Yiqing indifferently, as if he had never recognized her.

Such a look makes Su Yiqing feel guilty. She usually keeps a low profile, but what she did today may be too outrageous in the eyes of others. She is eleven years old, not too old, not too young. Thirteen years old in ancient times

She can forcefully get married. Her current age is really not close to being young and ignorant.

Subconsciously, he lowered his head to avoid Mrs. Xu's gaze.

Mrs. Xu smiled softly, turned to look at the rows of books in Su Yiqing's room, and said, "You do like reading. The ancients said that a woman's lack of talent is virtue. Although it is a bit biased, it is not unreasonable.

, I read too many books, think too much, and take everything written in the books as true, which is a great misfortune.”

Su Yiqing bit her lips, not knowing how to answer. Being alone with Mr. Xu seemed to be her first time in this world. In terms of blood relationship, they were mother and daughter, but in terms of feelings, she really loved Mrs. Xu.

She didn't feel much, especially now that she still suspected that Mr. Xu had harmed Brother Ming.

Mrs. Xu didn't expect Su Yiqing to say anything nice. She just said to herself: "I always thought that you were young and that some things I told you would be in vain. Children talk without meaning and don't know what to say and what not to say.

If you let it slip, you will cause big trouble for yourself and others, and now it seems that it won’t work if you don’t say it.”

After saying that, Mrs. Xu picked up the small teapot she was sitting on and poured herself a cup of tea. Regardless of whether the tea was cold, she took a few sips first, cleared her throat, glanced at the books again, and said slowly: "It's full."

The whole government thinks that I was responsible for Brother Ming’s death, you also have such doubts in your mind, right?”
