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

Pearl was stunned and wanted to say something else when Feicui suddenly pushed the door and walked in.

Su Qingyu saw Feicui coming in, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and looked at her, "Have you found out? What's going on?"

Last night, Feicui followed Shen Zhao's servant Yuanbao out of the house and saw Yuanbao hand over the package to a man.

When leaving the house today, Feicui did not follow us to Guangfulou, but went to check on the man.

Feicui walked up to Su Qingyu and said, "I have inquired carefully and found out that the man specializes in the business of jade and antiques."

"Many housekeepers in large mansions secretly sell things to him. He even does business in the palace."

"When I went there, I happened to run into Yuanbao going to get the silver. Afterwards, I followed Yuanbao back to the mansion and confirmed that he had given the silver to the eldest young master."

Su Qingyu frowned slightly. Is Shen Zhao short of money?

Even if Chen gave part of the money to her parents' family, the first wife would not have to sell off her property to make ends meet.

In her previous life, she had helped Shen Zhao deal with the affairs of the shops outside, and she knew the family background of the eldest son better than anyone else.

Su Qingyu vaguely felt that something was wrong here, and it seemed that she had to find someone to investigate Shen Zhao's matter in detail.

I can't ask Shen Zhixiu to help with this matter, nor can I use Shen Zhixiu's people, so I can only ask my third cousin for help.

Su Qingyu never forgot the hatred of her past life. The more she remembered it, the calmer she became about Shen Zhao's affairs.

She knew a lot about Shen Zhao, but none of that was enough to kill him. She had been looking for an opportunity, an opportunity to kill Shen Zhao with one blow. It would be best if she could kill both of them and avenge her brother at the same time.

But there was no rush, maybe her brother wanted to take revenge himself. She would first investigate what she needed to investigate, and then take her time to deal with the rest.

When Zhenzhu saw that her wife was stunned and didn't say anything for a long time, she was so anxious that she almost stamped her feet.

She couldn't hold back her words, and finally couldn't help but say, "Madam, the Third Master has gone out to drink wine, and you are just sitting there calmly?"

What did the waiter say just now? A girl who sings and drinks with men. I heard that such a girl has been taught how to serve men since childhood. Every move she makes is full of charm.

The Third Master is surrounded by beauties on both sides. If he feels like it, will he take a concubine?

If you take a concubine, should you have illegitimate sons and daughters?

For a moment, the images in Zhenzhu's mind ranged from Shen Zhixiu drinking prostitutes' wine to a group of children calling Su Qingyu mother, none of whom were their biological children.

Thinking of this scene, Pearl shuddered subconsciously.

Upon hearing this, Jade walked over to Pearl and asked in a low voice, "Drinking flower wine? What's going on?"

Zhenzhu then explained a few words to Feicui, and then said to Su Qingyu: "Madam, although the Third Master has deep feelings for you now, I am afraid that someone will try to get close to you."

"Madam, you must be on guard against this kind of thing."

Zhenzhu looked anxious, as if the concubine was about to enter the house the next moment.

Su Qingyu shook her head helplessly, picked up her chopsticks and continued eating.

"Prevent? Prevent what? There's no way to prevent something like this."

You can guard against people, but you can’t guard against their hearts.

Not to mention someone like Shen Zhixiu, even a landlord in the countryside might have more than a dozen concubines.

The root cause of taking a concubine lies with the man. If he has you in his heart and loves you, then you can be together for life. There will be no helplessness, and there will be no saying that you have no choice.

She could sit here and eat calmly today because she trusted Shen Zhixiu. And this trust came from the sense of security that Shen Zhixiu gave her every day.

Pearl frowned when she heard this. "Madam, aren't you afraid that someone will take advantage of you? You should at least think more about yourself."

Su Qingyu couldn't help laughing. How could she not think about herself?

If Shen Zhixiu was like most men in this world, with many concubines and countless illegitimate children, she would not be on guard against him day and night like a resentful woman. The world is so big, there is always a place for her to stay and there is always something she can do.

She doesn't pin all her hopes in life on men, and of course she won't make unnecessary suspicions.

Just like what happened today, she believed that Shen Zhixiu knew what he was doing.

The dishes on the table were a little cold. Feicui wanted to take them down and replace them with hotter ones, but was stopped by Su Qingyu.

"I don't eat much, so don't bother."

Feicui said, "I heard that Guangfulou's dim sum is excellent. It's not the taste of the capital. The taste and style are all modeled after the dim sum of Jiangnan."

"It's rare for Madam to come out, why not serve some snacks and a pot of good tea to relax."

Su Qingyu became interested, so she asked Feicui to tell the waiter to serve a few plates of special dim sum.

After thinking for a while, he instructed Zhenzhu, "Go to the third floor and ask Wenzhu if the Third Master will go back home directly after dinner, or if he has other important matters to attend to?"

"If the Third Master goes back to the mansion directly, I will wait for him. Remember to tell Wen Zhu not to alarm the Third Master. Wait until he has finished his business, then tell him that I am here."

Zhenzhu bowed and walked out, heading towards the stairs.

The third floor of Guangfulou is not accepting guests today, but the waiter guarding the stairs knows Zhenzhu's identity and would never dare to stop her.

When Zhenzhu went upstairs, she saw Wenzhu guarding the door of the innermost private room.

She didn't dare to go forward, for fear of disturbing the people in the private room, so she could only gesture for Wenzhu to come over.

Wenzhu was a little surprised to see Zhenzhu. Could it be that the lady was here too today?

He didn't have time to think about it, and walked up to Pearl and asked, "Why are you here? Is the Madam here?"

Zhenzhu nodded and said, "Yes, Madam is having dinner on the second floor. She asked me to ask if the Third Master will be back soon. If he is, Madam will wait for him. If he has something else to do, we will go back first."

Wen Zhu said, "The Third Master has something else to do this afternoon, so he should be out soon. If Madam has nothing to do, please wait for a while."

Wenzhu thought that if the Third Master knew that his wife was waiting for him to come home, he would be very happy.

After receiving the answer, Zhenzhu turned around and was about to leave. Before leaving, she said, "Madam said that you don't need to tell the Third Master about this."

But what Zhenzhu didn't know was that Wenzhu entered the private room as soon as she went downstairs.

Before having dinner with Lord Chen today, Shen Zhixiu had instructed Wenzhu to find a reason to go in and call him away after half an hour.

As for the reason, he didn't say it, leaving Wenzhu to figure it out for herself. Just don't let Elder Chen think he did it on purpose.

Wen Zhu thought, what better reason could there be than this.

The Third Master is notoriously henpecked.

At this moment, my lady was waiting downstairs, so naturally I went to accompany her home.

When Wenzhu gently pushed the door open, a girl holding a pipa was singing in the middle of the private room.

Shen Zhixiu and Chen Ge Lao sat opposite each other, and next to Chen Ge Lao sat a girl, wearing a moon-white skirt, with a slender neck and fair skin visible.

At this moment, she was pouring wine for Lord Chen, and Lord Chen's hand was casually placed on her waist.

Next to the girl in white sat a girl in red. When she looked at Shen Zhixiu, her eyes were seductive, and she wanted to approach him but didn't dare.

Chen Zheng smiled and joked, "Zhi Xiu, I specially asked Xianyun to bring Miss Qin Sang here, why don't you like this?"
