Xiao Yinxiu also knew that she was in a hurry, so what she said was a little inappropriate. "I know that Song was knocked unconscious, but if she hadn't been so ostentatious before, I'm afraid the eldest daughter of the Jin family wouldn't have been so crazy."
Pei Chen poked Xiao Yinxiu's face with his index finger, "You said such nonsense. I thought highly of you. I thought you had the Duke's Mansion in your heart when you and your elder sister scolded the little maid in Prince An's Mansion. But now it seems——"
"What did I say wrong? If she hadn't always been so ostentatious, why would Jin Fuyun have to keep an eye on her?"
"You conspired with Jin Fuyun and almost killed the fourth family. Don't think that this matter has been forgotten. There are your files on the desk of Jingzhao Prefecture!"
Xiao Yinxiu snorted and laughed, "What does it have to do with me? Don't put the blame on me if something goes wrong! Pei Chen, I just feel chilled. Aren't Ling'er and Huan'er your biological children? At this critical moment, as a father, where are you thinking?"
Pei Chen gritted his teeth in anger.
"You ignorant woman, you have a short-sighted vision!"
When she wanted to curse again, she was dragged out by Aunt Chu. Xiao Yinxiu stopped crying now. She just pointed at Pei Chen's back and cursed him harshly.
"Could it be that I was wrong? If I had paid more attention to my own affairs, I wouldn't have to go to the Prince's Mansion so often!"
He turned around and sat down angrily.
Shuangyue hurriedly served tea and water, patted her chest to calm her breath, and after a while, Xiao Yinxiu pushed her hand away impatiently, "Forget it, after all, it's Ling'er's business, I'll take care of it myself."
Aunt Chu came in and said, "Madam, calm down. The eldest young master's wife and the young ladies will be at the door for dinner in a while."
Xiao Yinxiu snorted and laughed, "Song family will bring disaster to this mansion sooner or later!"
"Oh my! Madam——"
Shuang Yue fell to her knees with a thud. "If others hear you say that, I'm afraid you'll be reprimanded by the master. Please keep your voice down. Let's live our own lives. Anyway, you didn't invite her to this small banquet."
"Get up, the prince is heartless and doesn't feel sorry for his aunt, but the eldest sister does."
Despite this episode, it did not affect the farewell to Xu Lingqiao. Xiao Yinxiu sent someone to warm up the good wine sent by her mother's family, and after drinking it, she became interested.
Pulling Xu Lingqiao, he said, "My dear girl, we have the same appearance, but I like you the most. But listen to my sister-in-law. You are old and you can't delay any longer. When I was your age, Ling Ge'er would be running all over the place."
Although Xu Lingqiao is afraid of this matter now, the person speaking is the Crown Prince's wife.
She was not without consideration, and nodded slowly, "Thank you for your concern, elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law. If there is such a fate in the future, I will not dare to refuse it."
"correct!"
Xiao Yinxiu pulled her and spoke with a thick tongue, "I always see you smiling, and you look good. Find a considerate husband. Although I don't get along with the fourth brother's family, you can see that the fourth brother loves her very much."
This was the first time Xiao Yinxiu got drunk.
Pei Chen had quarreled with her earlier, and although he didn't make her cry, she felt very aggrieved. She took advantage of this small banquet and while the guests were a little tipsy, she got drunk.
Including Pei Qiuyu, her sister-in-law whom she always looked down upon.
At this moment, he also held my hand and said, "You are a good picker, but girl, you must not be too kind. My sister-in-law and I cannot be your master. You should ask your father for help in the future. Don't waste your time."
Pei Qiuyu was flattered, tears welling in her eyes, and she whispered, "Thank you, second sister-in-law. Qiuyu knows she was wrong."
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Yinxiu leaned on Qi Yueniang, her whole body steaming, "Now that Ling Qiao is gone, who knows when we'll see each other again. Qiuyu will also be away in the future, and this mansion... will become more and more empty."
There is a cold wind howling outside the window.
Although there was charcoal fire in the house, everyone still felt a little cold at the thought of separation.
**
In Kuoyuezhai, Qi Yueniang mentioned this matter, "If you say your second sister-in-law has a stubborn temperament, many things seem unreasonable, but Ling Qiao wanted to cry several times in her room that day."
Song Guanzhou snorted and laughed, "Second sister-in-law won't see me, she's still the respectable wife of the prince."
Qi Yueniang asked Lanxiang to change her shoes and socks, and then she warmed her body up before she got down to business. "The general will come to visit father tomorrow."
what?
Song Guanzhou was blowing the herbal tea carefully, but when he heard this, he almost lost control and dropped the teacup.
"General? General Jin?"
Qi Yueniang nodded, "The invitation sent yesterday evening was personally given to father by Linchuan, who then sent someone to call me and the prince. We will hold a small banquet in Zhengxian Pavilion tomorrow to entertain the general."
"Sister-in-law, I am also a little confused. If you just come to visit, why do you need a small banquet to entertain you? Hot tea and snacks can be dealt with."
Besides, the two hadn't seen each other for many years and had accumulated old grudges. Xiaoyan...
"The general said he wanted to have a cup of warm winter wine with father and reminisce about the past."
"It's fake to reminisce about the past. I'm afraid they are here to talk about something. His daughter committed a sin. I heard from Silang that he interrogated her maid and it was most likely done by Jin Fuyun. The prince of Prince An's mansion, Prince Yong, and even her brother Jin Yunfan were witnesses to it."
This could no longer be a robbery and murder at Longen Temple, and it ended in nothing.
After hearing this, Qi Yueniang nodded slightly.
"Nine out of ten are here to talk about this matter. From what I heard, the emperor has not summoned him yet. I guess... he wants him to settle these matters and appease a few families before he can meet with the emperor."
Song Guanzhou listened and pondered for a moment.
After a while, he raised his head and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you telling me this so that I can prepare myself, or are you saying that tomorrow... you will also be meeting guests?"
"Probably not."
Qi Yueniang sighed, "I told you this because I thought you were the victim. If you knew it in advance, you would have a better idea in your mind."
"Shiro, do you know?"
Qi Yueniang frowned slightly, "I'm afraid you don't know yet. Yesterday, Silang came back late from duty, so my father told me and the prince."
"Let's see if this great general can give an explanation."
Qi Yueniang shook her head, "That's unknown."
The two sisters-in-law didn't know much about Jin Meng, and wanted to ask more questions, but they didn't know where to start. Just as they were in silence, Shuangyue's voice came from outside, "Sister Lanxiang, is the eldest young master's wife here?"
Seeing this, Qi Yue Niang glanced at Song Guanzhou.
"Sister-in-law, if you don't agree to it?"
"I'll ask her to come in."
After saying that, he shouted towards the door, "Shuangyue, please come in. I'm inside." Shuangyue heard the noise and responded crisply. She pushed the door open and walked in. She walked to the inner room lightly. But when she saw the beautiful Fourth Young Master's wife sitting on the couch, she was stunned for a moment.
Qi Yueniang didn't care about her and asked, "But if your wife wants to see me for something, just tell me."
How dare Shuangyue?
