A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min

As the two were talking, Pearl suddenly came in to report.

"Madam, Jinyun, who is beside the fourth young lady, wants to see you and looks very anxious."

Su Qingyu heard this and said to Shen Zhixiu: "Third Master, go quickly. I'll go see what Fourth Sister wants to see me about."

Before leaving the house, Shen Zhixiu gave another instruction, "If you go out, take Jiang Qi with you. The cold disaster in Northern Zhili has not completely passed, and the capital is not so peaceful now."

Su Qingyu nodded, signaling him to leave the house without worry.

After seeing Shen Zhixiu off, Su Qingyu invited Jinyun in.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the fourth sister?"

Jin Yun bowed and said, "Miss, go to the Lin's Company. Our second young master just went there. He said that the third young master dug up the Su family's ancestral tomb. I'm afraid there has been a commotion there by now."

Su Qingyu stood up suddenly, "What did you say?"

Jinyun added: "The Second Young Master was dressed in mourning clothes, and he was crying. If I didn't know the character of the Third Young Master, I would have believed what he said."

Su Qingyu stood up and was about to go out. Feicui hurriedly took the cloak and helped her put it on.

Thinking of what the Third Master had just said, Feicui took the initiative to ask Zhenzhu to call Jiang Qi to come over.

When they arrived, the entrance of Lin's Business was already surrounded by people.

My ears were filled with the chatter of people watching the fun. Some said they didn't expect Lin Wuchen to be such a person, while others said the Lin family was kind and righteous and the case must have been a false accusation.

Su Qingyu came here with Su Chengye and Su Chengyan.

The three of them looked at each other, then squeezed into the crowd.

Just then, Lin Wuchen opened his mouth and said, "Your Su family's grave is on our Lin family's mountain, but our Lin family is not here to guard your grave."

"You guys have offended someone, don't put the blame on me."

"Who knows if you dug up your own ancestral graves just to get revenge on me?"

Lin Wuchen's words were just casual, but they made Su Yuanqing feel panicked.

Then he calmed himself down and started to argue.

"Our family has offended someone, and the one we offended the most is the Lin family."

"If you ask who hates the Su family the most in Beijing, it must be your Lin family."

"First, your aunt and my uncle divorced. They even went to court over this matter."

"A few days ago you asked for two hundred thousand taels of silver before you were willing to sell the mountain to us. Our family can't afford it. Have you forgotten what you said at that time?"

Lin Wuchen was stunned, "What did I say?"

He didn't remember saying anything outrageous.

Su Yuanqing continued, "You said, if you can't come up with the silver, don't expect the ancestors of the Su family to live in peace."

"I didn't understand what was going on at the time, but that's what you were planning."

Su Yuanqing took out the deer bone stick and said, "This was found next to our family's grave. Isn't this what your family uses to collect ginseng? What else can you deny?"

Young Master Li echoed, "I can make the decision. This deer bone skewer was indeed found by Brother Su near the graveyard."

After Su Yuanqing finished speaking, those who were watching the fun all believed him unanimously.

Su Yuanqing's suspicion is indeed well-founded and has evidence.

There were people in the crowd who had been arranged by He in advance and they were already inciting everyone.

"The Lin family did something so insidious. I won't buy anything from them anymore."

"That's right, this brother is right. Buying things from the Lin family is like aiding and abetting the evil."

Lin Wuchen has been outside for many years and has seen many such scoundrels.

"When did I say that if you don't give me money, the ancestors of the Su family will never live in peace? You are slandering me. I have never said this."

"And this deer bone skewer, with my Lin family's name engraved on it? This thing can be bought with silver, but you can't use this to frame me."

But to others, Lin Wuchen's words sounded like a sophistry that only made things more obvious.

Just at this moment Su Qingyu, Su Chengye and Su Chengyan squeezed in together.

A hint of excitement appeared in Su Yuanqing's eyes. It was time for the final step.

When Su Chengye heard that Lin Wuchen had dug up the Su family's ancestral grave, he was so angry that he wanted to hit him. But Su Chengyan stopped him and said he wanted to ask what happened first.

Their purpose was to force the Lin family to give up the mountain, not to beat them.

When his wife, Mrs. He, told him about this in the morning, his reaction was the same as Su Chengye's. He wanted to slap Mrs. He in the face.

Even if it was planned for his son, he shouldn't have involved his ancestors. What would that mean? If it got out, the Su family would be criticized for three lifetimes.

But He explained to him with a humble look for the whole morning, and said that after the matter was accomplished, she and her son would go to apologize to their ancestors in person.

Su Chengyan calmed down and was also moved. What the lady said made sense, and her son's future was the most important thing.

At this moment, Su Yuanqing had a look of sorrow and regret on his face, kneeling in front of Su Chengye and Su Chengyan, "Uncle, father, I am an unfilial child."

"If I went to worship my ancestors regularly, the Lin family wouldn't have taken advantage of me."

Su Chengyan naturally knew how to cooperate. He bent down to help Su Yuanqing up and said, "My son, don't blame yourself. It's a rare thing for you to go to worship every month."

Su Yuanqing refused to stand up, shaking his head and saying, "Father, it's my son who is useless. If I hadn't devoted myself to studying and neglected the business outside the family, our family would not have been unable to come up with 200,000 taels of silver."

"If I had two hundred thousand taels of silver, I could buy this mountain from the Lin family. Naturally, what happened today wouldn't have happened."

When he was excited, Su Yuanqing kowtowed several times in the direction of the Su family's ancestral tomb.

"Our ancestors are above us, and it is our descendants who are incompetent that have humiliated our ancestors today."

After bowing to his ancestors, Su Yuanqing went to kowtow to Lin Wuchen.

"Master Lin San, I beg you, if you have any problem, come to me. Don't disturb the peace of the ancestors of the Su family, please."

Su Yuanqing's series of reactions caught everyone off guard. Even Su Chengyan didn't expect Su Yuanqing to be so exaggerated and intense.

At this moment, the people's voices were getting louder and louder. They all said that Su Yuanqing was a rare filial son and grandson, and asked the Lin family not to go too far.

Lin Wuchen gritted his teeth. He didn't expect that the Su family would even sacrifice their own ancestors in order to avoid spending money.

It was obvious what happened today was premeditated.

Su Qingyu also had a gloomy face, knowing in her heart that this was going to be troublesome.

Su Yuanqing's move was to ruin the reputation of Lin Wuchen and the Lin family, and to give himself a reputation as a filial son.

He has succeeded. At this moment, the people watching are either scolding Lin Wuchen or praising Su Yuanqing.

The only way to clear the third cousin of suspicion is to see that Su Yuanqing dug the grave himself.

But how is that possible? There are no witnesses in the deep mountains and forests.

Su Qingyu's mind raced, and she turned around and whispered to Feicui, "Go back to the mansion and find a way to interrogate Su Yuanqing's servant to see if there are any flaws."

Jade nodded and left calmly.

Su Qingyu looked around and saw that the people were looking at Lin Wuchen with contempt, and some were even throwing rotten vegetable leaves towards the gate of Lin's Trading Company.

The Great Zhou Dynasty has always respected the dead, no matter how big the conflict or hatred, as long as someone disturbs the ancestral tablets, they will be despised.

In the countryside, even if two families have just had a fight, if someone dies, you have to go and help, as it is a sign of respect for the deceased.

Su Qingyu knew that this couldn't happen. After thinking about it, she spoke loudly.

"Everyone, I am the eldest daughter of the Su family, the third wife of the Shen family, and a cousin of the Lin family."

"I'll be fair and say that this matter needs to be investigated in detail. If the Lin family digs up my Su family's ancestral graves, I will break off my relationship with the Lin family without saying a word."

"But if it wasn't done by the Lin family, then we have not only wronged someone, but also let the bad guys go unpunished."

Su Qingyu's words calmed down the people who were angry just now.

She was delighted and planned to ask Lin Wuchen to swear a solemn oath, and then report the case to the Ministry of Justice and ask the government to conduct a thorough investigation. This way, the Lin family would be able to clear most of the suspicion, if not completely.

Just as he was about to speak again, a sharp and loud announcement came from outside the crowd.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
