"It's rare that Jinglan is so happy in the Xiao family, we can't let this incident ruin it!"

Mrs. Yang San was afraid that her mother-in-law's attitude would affect the relationship between Mr. Dong and her daughter, who had just gotten married and had not yet had a son and a half.

Mrs. Yang San is also a veteran who has been immersed in the back house for many years. With a flick of her silk handkerchief as thin as a cicada's wings, her beautiful eyes already filled with tears.

When Mrs. Dong saw this situation, she quickly stepped forward and held her mother-in-law's other hand to comfort her. She never expected that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of Dingyuan Hou Mansion had such a good relationship!

Mrs. Yang San wiped the tears from her eyes a few times, then helped Mr. Dong sit down and slowly complained to her mother-in-law.

"My mother-in-law suffered a physical injury three years ago, and she has never been able to recover from it. It was ultimately caused by our master... and my mother-in-law has been wronged as well!"

Mrs. Yang San stooped down and saluted Mrs. Dong, who quickly helped Mrs. Yang San up. Mrs. Dong had heard Ming Jia mention it about Mrs. Dingyuanhou's poisoning.

Listening to Mrs. Yang San's story at this time, it had a completely different meaning, and Mrs. Dong also understood it.

Therefore, years of drinking medicine and physical discomfort caused Mrs. Dingyuan Hou's emotions to change.

The youngest son who was once the most loved and proud of had turned into a person who poisoned her and lingered on her sick bed. Mrs. Dingyuan Hou did not dare to resent her youngest son, but she also vented her anger on the entire third bedroom.

Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Mrs. Dong did not dare to comment on this matter, but she felt even more sorry for Jinglan.

"Just now, the old lady mentioned serving the sick? Do girls like Jinglan who are monks in the mansion also want to return to the mansion to serve the sick?"

There are a lot of maids and women in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, as well as a number of sons, daughters-in-law, and daughters. There is no need for granddaughters to serve the sick.

But just now Mrs. Hou mentioned that Mrs. Dong could not stop Jinglan from fulfilling her filial piety, but now it seems that it is not just as simple as serving the sick and fulfilling her filial piety!

"Jinglan and her cousin are copying Buddhist scriptures together! In order to pray for her grandmother!"

Mrs. Yang San's face looked ugly. Now she could only wait for her master to come back and ask him to come forward and send her daughter and son-in-law back to the Xiao family.

Ms. Dong was originally worried that her mother-in-law would be reluctant to leave Jinglan if she wanted to return to her hometown in Qingzhou, but now Ms. Dong was relieved.

"Third Madam, I am here this time, and I actually want to discuss something with you!"

"Jinglan married into the Xiao family and has not yet returned to her hometown to worship her ancestors. My body is not adapted to the soil and water of this capital, so I planned to take Jinglan back to her hometown in Qingzhou to worship her ancestors and name Jinglan. Write it into the family tree!”

"Although our hometown is in the countryside of Qingzhou, we just built a big house the year before last and it's comfortable to live in. When the weather gets cooler, do you think it's okay for Mingjun to take Jinglan back to Beijing?"

Mrs. Yang San was a little stupid, but she soon started to think about it. The more she thought about it, the more she thought it was a good idea.

"It's just that my son-in-law will take the Chunwei exam next year. Will it delay his studies?"

Mr. Dong rarely asked about Ming Jun's studies, but when it came to important matters such as spring and summer, Mr. Dong also asked Ming Jun in advance.

"I have talked with Ming Jun about this matter. The communication between Beijing and Qingzhou only takes five days. He and his husband can write letters."

This is also because Mr. Dong has great confidence in Mingjun. In fact, Mingjun passed the exams smoothly all the way, which makes Ms. Dong feel so relieved.

"So, that's great!"

Mrs. Yang San did not expect that she would have such a good conversation with Mr. Dong this time, and when they finally parted, they were already calling each other by their names.

Ming Jia had been drinking tea in the front yard, during which Yang Haofei came over to talk to Ming Jia for a while, telling Ming Jia not to worry about Ming Jun.

Because Ming Jun was taken out by Yang Tingxuan to help with errands, Yang Haofei didn't stay in the front hall for too long before sneaking away again.

Ming Jia stared at Yang Haofei's back for a while, her brows knitting together.

[The reason why he said there is no need to worry about my brother is that my brother is not in Dingyuan Hou Mansion. So what if my brother is in Dingyuan Hou Mansion? 】

Until the maid brought Dong over, Mingjia never saw another master from Dingyuan Hou Mansion coming to entertain him.

Ming Jia walked beside Dong, gently held Dong's arm, and asked in a low voice if Dong had been left out.

Seeing Dong shake his head, Mingjia was convinced of her suspicion, because Dong was answering her question rather than questioning why she asked the question.

The housekeeper of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion stood guard at the gatehouse and bowed respectfully to Mrs. Dong and her daughter. Mingjia helped Mrs. Dong onto the carriage and put down the curtain of the carriage.

After settling her mother down, Ming Jia slowly turned around and looked at the door of Dingyuan Hou Mansion, casually looking at every servant who sent them out.

The housekeeper has always maintained a slightly hunched posture. Today, the Third Master specifically warned not to neglect the Xiao family, but he could not disobey the order from the main courtyard.

I originally thought that since the Xiao family's family background was not high, and if I could be more polite and send him off happily, he would be able to pass away safely.

But the young master Xiao in front of him refused to get on the carriage, which looked a little difficult.

"This is the first time I have entered the gate of Dingyuan Hou Mansion. The hospitality of the Hou Mansion is really good. Is the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion right?"

Mingjia looked over enough, then looked at the butler who was already sweating profusely. The butler smiled a little stiffly and nodded in agreement.

"Please tell the third master of your house that my mother is not feeling well and needs the decoction prepared by my sister-in-law, so that you can send my brother and sister-in-law back to the Xiao family to take care of her illness before dinner."

"Your third master probably doesn't want to see that I personally came to pick you up during dinner!"

Mingjia ignored the changed face of the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion. During her days in the capital, she had always kept a low profile and stayed out of trouble, but she had really had enough of the recent incidents.

What about Dingyuan Hou Mansion? If it weren't for the fear of the old lady in the backyard, Mingjia wouldn't even be able to bear it now.

Fourteen waved his riding whip gently, and the carriage slowly left the gate of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. Mingjia got on his horse and followed the carriage.

It was approaching noon, and there were not many pedestrians on the road, but the surroundings were the mansions of Dukes and Counts, and Fourteen did not dare to speed up.

Mingjia's expression was really bad, and Fourteen secretly observed Mingjia's condition while controlling the horse.

Fourteenth heard clearly what Mingjia said just now, and he was already thinking about how many brothers he would need to break through the gate of Dingyuan Hou Mansion.

Ming Jia had such a cold face, thinking about something in her heart. To outsiders, her expression looked extremely bad.

Mingjia concentrated on thinking about things and paid less attention to the outside world. She did not notice Yang Tingxuan and his brother Mingjun at the tea stall nearby.

Yang Tingxuan looked at the direction of the Xiao family's carriage with the tea cup in hand, guessing that it had just come out of his own house, but Ming Jia's expression was obviously wrong!

Mingjun just saw Mingjia's appearance and already winked at Aman, asking him to find a chance to go around and ask what was going on.

"Ming Jun, if someone in my house treats Ming Jia poorly..."

Yang Tingxuan spoke with some uncertainty. He could only guess like this now. He knew the situation best in his family.

"My father-in-law, you just didn't treat Mingjia well. Mingjia may not have such a complexion!"

Ming Jun interrupted Yang Tingxuan's words. Ming Jia's several violent outbursts were not because she was wronged.

Yang Tingxuan put down the tea cup, stood up and took Ming Jun's arm, and hurried back to his house to ask what was going on.
