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

"Hey, whose daughter is this? Why is she running around like that?"

Su Qingyu looked towards the door of the private room and found that it was her mother Lin Wanyin who was bumped by Wang Jinyao, and the one who spoke was Nanny Bai beside Lin Wanyin.

But Wang Jinyao had no intention of stopping and had already left.

"What's going on?" Lin Wanyin and Lin Wanli walked in and looked at everyone in the private room in surprise.

They didn't know what had happened until someone downstairs reported that the eldest daughter went to the second floor and seemed to have had a quarrel with someone. The brother and sister then hurried over.

Seeing this, Song Wanwan walked to the door and said to the ladies, "Let's get together another day."

Everyone knew that the two families were going to talk behind closed doors. They all said goodbye one after another, and Song Wanwan signaled the maids around her to send the young ladies out.

Song Hongshen was very polite to Lin Wanyin and Lin Wanli, performed the junior's salute, and invited them to sit down and talk.

The small private room seemed a bit cramped and the maids and servants all retreated outside.

Su Shunci whispered to Lin Wanyin and Lin Wanli what had happened, without exaggerating or leaving out any details.

Lin Wanyin frowned when she heard this, especially when Wang Jinyao scolded Su Zhilan, which made her face darken immediately.

She was close to the Hai family, and their two children were also named Su. So even though Lin Wanyin divorced, she still loved Su Zhilan.

How could she not be angry when her own child was wronged?

But Su Zhilan was the fifth daughter of the Su family, and she had no connection with the Su family. It was not her turn to intervene in this matter. She could not negotiate with the Song and Wang families without going through Su Chengxun and the Hai family.

After thinking for a while, Lin Wanyin said to Su Qingyu: "I will take Zhilan back to Prince Ning's Mansion first, you go and tell your uncle and aunt."

Su Qingyu thought this was a good idea, as her fifth sister was probably also scared.

After the discussion was complete, Lin Wanyin, Lin Wanli, Su Shunci and Su Zhilan all stood up and prepared to leave.

Song Hongshen looked at Su Zhilan, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself from saying anything.

After a few people left, only Song Hongshen, Song Wanwan, and Su Qingyu were left in the room.

The waiter brought the tea again and Song Wanwan spoke first.

"Sister Su, I will tell my mother about this when I get home. Don't worry, my cousin will definitely go to the Su family to apologize."

Song Wanwan was full of self-blame. She had no time to invite them to appreciate the flowers, and caused such an embarrassing incident.

Su Qingyu spoke to comfort Song Wanwan, "This matter has nothing to do with you, and you don't know the inside story."

Given Wang Jinyao's feelings for Song Hongshen, she would have a quarrel with her fifth sister sooner or later. Even if this incident hadn't happened, there would have been something else.

After comforting Song Wanwan, Su Qingyu looked at Song Hongshen again.

"Your Majesty, the last time my fifth sister was dining out, Miss Wang ridiculed her."

"Today he even insulted me with his words, saying all kinds of nasty things."

"If it were an outsider, it would be fine. My Su family wouldn't be afraid. But this person is your biological cousin. I'm afraid that if my fifth sister marries into the family, these problems will continue to arise."

Su Qingyu's words were a warning, and she also wanted to see the Song family's attitude.

Song Hongshen's eyes were deep. After listening to Su Qingyu's words, he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Madam San. The Wang family cannot be the master of our Song family. I will definitely give an explanation to the Su family about this matter and will never let Miss Wu be humiliated for nothing."

Su Qingyu nodded and said, "It's good to hear King Zhongyong's words." Then she stood up and left.

After she left, Song Wanwan asked Song Hongshen, "Third brother, what should we do now? Should we go back home and tell our father and mother?"

Song Hongshen stood up and said, "You go back first and tell your family. I'm going to the Wang family."

After leaving Guangfulou, Su Qingyu took a carriage directly to the Su family.

She did not elaborate on the matter at the Su family, but instead asked the two of them to get on the carriage and go to Prince Ning's Mansion together.

In the carriage, Su Qingyu recounted what had happened today in detail.

It was said that Su Zhilan had met Song Hongshen several times in private and was humiliated by Wang Jinyao because of this. Hai was angry and felt sorry for her daughter.

Fortunately, the man was Song Hongshen. If it was someone else, I'm afraid he would never be able to wash himself clean even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

She couldn't understand why her well-behaved and dignified daughter could be so bold. Even if the two were engaged, it would be against the rules to meet in private.

Su Qingyu whispered to Hai, "Aunt San, don't be too harsh on Fifth Sister. She is still young."

Su Zhilan was simple-minded, her mind was full of shipbuilding drawings, and she didn't think about anything else. Even if Su Zhilan was wrong, it was not a reason for Wang Jinyao to humiliate her.

Although Hai was angry that her daughter did not follow the rules, she was more distressed. She looked outside the carriage from time to time, feeling anxious.

Su Qingyu also talked about Song Hongshen's attitude today, "Don't worry, Third Uncle and Third Aunt, with the words of the Loyal and Brave King, this incident will not affect Fifth Sister's reputation."

Soon, the carriage arrived at Prince Ning's Mansion.

Lin Wanyin knew that Su Chengxun and Hai were coming, so she didn't go back to the inner courtyard, but waited in the outer courtyard hall with Su Shunci and Su Zhilan.

Su Qingyu led her uncle and aunt to the door of the hall, and her brother Su Yuanzhou also came after receiving the news.

As the four of them reached the door, they heard crying coming from the hall.

Su Chengxun recognized his daughter's voice and took a few quick steps. When he entered the room, he saw Su Zhilan throwing herself into Lin Wanyin's arms, with crystal tears falling down.

Without bothering to salute Lin Wanyin, Su Chengxun looked at his daughter first, "Zhilan, why are you crying so sadly? Daddy will go to the Wang family now to settle the score with them."

Su Chengxun was cautious when he looked at his daughter, but his face was full of anger when he talked about settling accounts with the Wang family.

Su Qingyu stood aside, watching the change in Uncle San's expression, and felt envious. She had never felt such a father's full protection for his daughter.

She subconsciously glanced at Su Shunci, who was also pursing her lips and looking at Uncle San and Su Zhilan. She reached out and held Su Shunci's hand, giving her a comforting look.

Su Zhilan raised her head only after hearing her father say that they were going to Wang's house.

While sobbing, she said, "Daddy, it's my fault for not following the rules and causing trouble for the family."

She grew up in Jiangnan, where people are more open-minded than in Beijing. In her opinion, meeting someone privately and asking questions is not a big deal. She thought she had done nothing out of the ordinary, but she didn't expect to cause such a big trouble.

Although Wang Jinyao went too far today, this incident would not have happened if she had not given others the opportunity to take advantage of her.

So on the way back, she belatedly began to reflect on herself. She was not afraid of her reputation being damaged, nor was she afraid of the Song family breaking off the engagement, but she was afraid that her parents and brothers and sisters would be implicated by her.

Seeing that she took all the blame on herself, Su Chengxun pulled his daughter with heartache and spoke softly.

"You don't have to take all the blame on yourself. You are still young and you will understand these rules slowly."

Hai looked at her daughter's tear-stained face and thought of the relationship between the Wang family and the Song family. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this marriage was not appropriate.

He said to Su Chengxun, "Master, I think we need to reconsider our marriage with the Song family."
