Qingqiu and Ningdong were silent, feeling sorry for their master. He was such a good girl, so why did he have such a bad fate?

Originally, they had a good marriage, and they all thought that the master would be relieved of all their hardships until they got married. Unexpectedly, on the day of the wedding, the groom-to-be was given a slap in the face by the official.

——Escaped from marriage.

The master instantly became the laughing stock of the whole crowd. Everyone in the capital was laughing at the master. He was abandoned by the groom on the wedding day. This kind of scandal had not happened in the capital in recent decades, but it happened to their master.

Fortunately, the Marquis married their master and was very kind to their master, but she didn't expect that the Marquis actually had a sweetheart?

Ningdong choked and said, "Madam, I have been wronged."

Meng Jinyao was also open-minded and replied warmly: "When I chose to marry him, I didn't choose between Gu Xiuhong and Gu Xiuwen. I just wanted to find a place for myself. As Mrs. Tuhou, I wanted to be Gu Xiuming's wife." Elder, Gu Xiuming can't bully me? I have achieved my goal now, and there is nothing to feel wronged about."

Ningdong was heartbroken: "But I feel it's not worth it for my wife. Their family has already hurt you by doing this. If you don't want to marry, just cancel the engagement and run away on the wedding day. What does this mean?"

As she spoke, tears fell down, feeling angry and uncomfortable: "Your innocent girl married him at such an old age and has hidden illnesses. I didn't expect that his heart belonged to another woman. It's their Gu family." To harm you, even if you marry a poor student who only has you in his heart, it is better than marrying a man who has other women in his heart."

Meng Jinyao also felt a little uncomfortable. Was she wronged?

That must be a grievance, but that is over and the matter is a foregone conclusion. What else do you want to do?

She is now a marquise, the highest-status woman in the Gu family besides the old lady. She has endless money, maids and wives to wait on her, fine clothes and food, and no concubines to hinder her, which is good.

Meng Jinyao said warmly: "Okay, okay, don't cry anymore. I'm fine. I'm not looking for his sincerity. I'm looking for status. Now that I've got it, he's very nice to me now."

Ningdong listened to what she said calmly, but felt depressed and said worriedly: "Madam, it seems to be very good so far, but once that woman appears, the Marquis will probably not look at you again. You Whether you live well in this Marquis's residence depends entirely on the Marquis's attitude."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao's expression paused and she said unconcernedly: "It doesn't matter how much he likes that woman? As long as I don't violate the seven-out rule, he can't divorce me. Mrs. Gu can only be me, and she will always be her." I."

She chuckled softly as she spoke, shrugged nonchalantly, and said with a smile: "Besides, he is already twenty-nine years old, and the girl he likes must be married. She does not pose a threat to me. Is it possible?" He still wants to hook up with a married woman? I believe his upbringing prevents him from doing such a thing, and he won't deliberately treat me badly just because he has someone else in his heart."

Ningdong was stunned.

Qingqiu was also startled for a moment, and agreed after a moment: "Madam is right, it doesn't matter how much the Marquis likes her. Mrs. Gu can only be a madam. Looking at the temper of the Marquis, she is not a person who will treat his wife badly. Now the Marquis I don’t have any intention towards Madam, but Mr. Hou has given Madam Hou everything she deserves.”

Meng Jinyao pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, let's not mention this again. What does it matter if he has a sweetheart? He used to have a fiancée, and that girl was very good. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she was still in the capital. The most beautiful woman."

As soon as these words came out, Qingqiu and Ningdong looked at each other and then nodded silently.

Ningdong hesitated and said, "Madam, do you think the Marquis' sweetheart is his ex-fiancée?"

Meng Jinyao was stunned immediately. After thinking about Ningdong's words for a while, she felt that it was possible. If it was her ex-fiancée, then she didn't have to worry at all. Gu Jingxi's ex-fiancée was already married and was not in the capital. She went to other places with her husband. Taken office.

Ningdong said with great regret: "Master Hou's deep feelings can only be buried in his heart. It's a pity."

Meng Jinyao's mouth twitched. Why did she think this girl was gloating?

For a moment, she glared at Ningdong angrily and ordered: "Okay, let this matter go by and no one will mention it again, especially in front of the Marquis. Ningdong, go and put this set of masks back in the warehouse. If it’s gone, just put it back where it was.”

Ningdong was very puzzled: "Madam, I don't know which corner is where I am."

Meng Jinyao turned to look at Qingqiu: "Let Qingqiu go, Qingqiu should know."

Qingqiu responded: "Madam, this slave knows that the corner is still very eye-catching now. It was originally blocked by this box, and there is no dust under the box. That area looks particularly clean."

After Qingqiu said that, he took the box, took the key from his master, and went to get things done.

Ningdong calmly observed his master's face. Seeing that his master's expression was as usual, he didn't know if he was really not sad. He hesitated for a moment and then suggested: "Madam, I heard that there is a good new play in the theater, why don't we do it too?" Want to have a listen? It’s still early, so there will definitely be a spot in the past, but later it will probably be gone.”

Meng Jinyao happily agreed: "That's okay. After listening to the play, we can take a walk outside."

Ningdong saw that she was still in the mood to go out, which proved that the problem was not serious, and his face was filled with joy: "Then I will order someone to prepare the carriage right now."

More than half an hour later, the master and servant arrived at the largest theater in the capital.

They arrived either early or late. There was no private room, but there were still partitions separated by screens outside the private room.

Meng Jinyao chose a seat on the second floor, leaning against the railings and with a view of the stage, and ordered the necessary refreshments and fruits for listening to the show, as well as a pot of West Lake Longjing.

Not long after, the auditorium on the first floor was already full. It was obvious that the play was very popular, and it was even more popular because it was sung by a famous actress.

The actors come on stage, the show begins, and the actors on the stage sing a new play.

Meng Jinyao rested her hat on her hands and watched with boredom. She actually didn't like going to the theater that much. The actors on the stage sang quite well, and the content was probably about the feelings of family and country, but she became distracted while watching. She was just an outsider. It seemed that she was staring at the actors on the stage attentively.

At the curtain call, Ningdong asked: "Madam, what do you think of this play?"

Meng Jinyao came to her senses and replied with two words concisely: "Very good."

Ningdong asked again: "Where do you think it is better?"

Meng Jinyao picked up the teacup, took a sip, and replied, "Tea is good."

Ningdong: "...Are you distracted again?"

Meng Jinyao nodded obediently: "After reading the beginning, how does it end?"

Ningdong replied: "There are seven men in their family, six of them died in the battle, and my father survived."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao subconsciously looked at the auditorium in the lobby on the first floor below, and found that many people were raising their sleeves to wipe away tears, many of them were old men.
