Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

Chapter 219
At this time, in Dongyuan.

When the eldest lady came out, she saw the young man in the brocade robe in the hall, she smiled softly: "Just now I heard that the third son is here, I still don't believe it, I didn't expect that it was Rong'er, please sit down quickly."

The young man in the hall turned around and bowed to her, and said: "My nephew took the liberty of visiting today, and I hope that aunt will not be surprised. I really want to tell my aunt about something important, so I came here abruptly."

This person is exactly the one who inquired about Liu Hongxin in the theater building just now.

Upon hearing this, the eldest lady said seriously: "Did something happen at home?"

She has been married into Duke Yu's mansion for so many years, the Gu family seldom visits, and seeing Gu Rong's seriousness, she can't help but raise her heart.

Gu Rongdao: "Auntie, nephew heard that the second young lady is going to marry into Uncle Zhongyi's residence, right?"

The eldest lady's complexion gradually darkened, obviously unwilling to mention this matter.

When Mrs. Wu came to the door with a gift, she threw him out without saying a word, but whoever wanted to go around for a while, still complied with Mrs. Wu's wish.This matter is said to be embarrassing for Su Lingxi, but she is Su Lingxi's mother in name, how can she escape the criticism of the world?

Seeing her like this, Gu Rong understood, and then said: "Auntie, although my nephew is usually stubborn, he can still distinguish right from wrong in major matters. If you really love Second Miss, don't let her marry you no matter what. Liu Hongxin."

"What do you mean by that?" The eldest lady was confused by what he said.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Rong still told the eldest lady all those ridiculous things about Liu Hongxin.

When the Da Furen heard this, she was so shocked that she didn't recover for a long time, she clutched the table tightly, and asked again uncertainly: "Is what you said true?"

"It's absolutely true. If my aunt doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate. The incident was quite serious back then. You'll know as soon as you inquire about it." He deliberately avoided the fact that he often cared about Nanfeng Hall.

In fact, Gu Rong and Su Lingxi are not familiar with each other, and it was just a coincidence that they came here today.On the one hand, it was because he didn't want to see Liu Hongxin, who had been with him, suddenly become the son-in-law of Yuguo's mansion; The public cannot stand by and watch.

"Auntie, what my nephew said so far, what to do next is up to you to decide."

The eldest lady took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I understand."

Gu Rong's goal was achieved, so he didn't stay any longer, and got up to say goodbye: "In that case, my nephew won't bother me, and I'll come visit my aunt next time I have time."

The eldest lady was thinking about Liu Hongxin, so she didn't keep him, but ordered someone to send him out of the house.

After sending Gu Rong away, the eldest lady decided to tell Su Lingxi about it after much deliberation.Although the marriage bestowed by His Majesty cannot be changed, it is always good for Su Lingxi to have some confidence in her heart.

Thinking so, he went to Su Lingxi's yard.

Since the palace banquet on New Year's Eve, Su Lingxi has never left the room again.Xiaotang who was serving was secretly executed by Su Yuming, and now the newly appointed maid named Qing Kui stayed here to serve.

When the eldest lady came, Qing Kui was exiting the room with a tray, and the food on it had not been touched at all.

"Has Xi'er still not eaten?"

Qing Kui blessed Fushen, and said: "Yes, the girl has not eaten all day and night, Madam, please go in and persuade her."

The eldest lady looked at the closed door and sighed slightly: "Go and heat up the food before bringing it here, I'll go in and have a look first."

Qing Kui agreed, turned around and withdrew.

After she left, the doctor raised her hand and knocked on the door, "Xi'er, I have something to tell you, is it convenient for you now?"

As expected, there was no answer.

After struggling for a moment, the eldest lady said patiently, "Xi'er, I know you are upset, but if you continue to starve like this, your body will not be able to bear it. The divorce period is still a few months away, and everything can be discussed in the long term. Where is it really at the end of the mountain?"

After saying these words, the door opened unexpectedly.

Su Lingxi was wearing a plain white dress, her complexion was whiter than snow, and those calculating eyes were also silent, without brilliance.

Although the mother and daughter are only superficially affectionate on weekdays, since the eldest lady lost two children one after another, she wanted to treat Su Lingxi sincerely.Seeing her lifeless appearance now, tears welled up in her eyes.

Su Lingxi turned a blind eye to her worry, and said indifferently: "If you want to persuade me to accept my fate, there is no need to say more."

Da Furen wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "How could it be? Although I am not your biological mother, but you call me mother anyway, how can I bear to watch you marry such a person?"

Su Lingxi was unmoved.

"Xi'er, just now my natal nephew came to me and told me something about Uncle Zhongyi's residence." The eldest lady looked at her expression while talking, "When Mrs. Wu came to the door, I didn't Agreeing to this marriage, now that I have heard about Liu Hongxin's scandals, I can't agree to it even more."

Su Lingxi gradually came back to her senses, raised her head and asked, "What's the matter?"

The eldest lady did not hide anything, and told Su Lingxi exactly what Gu Rong said to her.

After listening, Su Lingxi was taken aback for a moment, as if she suddenly thought of something, she frowned and said nothing.

Seeing this, the eldest lady mourned: "At first I felt that Mrs. Wu's visit was very suspicious. Later, when something like that happened, I didn't think much about it, but who would have thought that Liu Hongxin was actually a broken sleeve? If you married , this life will be ruined!"

As she said that, she took Su Lingxi's hand, "Xi'er, if the Queen Mother knew about this, she would definitely not let the Liu family go easily."

Although the Empress Dowager was extremely disappointed with Su Lingxi this time, she still left some affection after all.

But Su Lingxi said: "I have my own considerations about this matter, and I ask mother not to tell father about it for the time being."

"What are you going to do?" The eldest lady was taken aback.

"Mother, I'm a little hungry, let Qingkui bring the food here." Su Lingxi avoided her probing gaze, but the moment she lowered her eyes, a gloomy look flashed across her eyes.

Hearing that she was willing to eat, the Da Furen wept with joy, she didn't ask any more questions, and quickly asked someone to bring some food in.

"Mother, you can go back, it's enough to have Qingkui here to serve you."

The eldest lady originally wanted to accompany Su Lingxi after dinner, but she issued an order to evict the guests, and she couldn't stay any longer, so she gave a few worried words, and then left with the people.

Su Lingxi lowered her eyebrows and drank the porridge slowly, not knowing what she was thinking.

In fact, that day, Liu Hongxin himself said that he didn't like women, but he was too angry at that time and ignored that for a while.Now that I think about it, all of this was indeed premeditated by the Wu family.No wonder she was so anxious to find her daughter-in-law, because she wanted to cover up the fact that Liu Hongxin was a broken sleeve.

After a while, she suddenly raised her eyes to look at Qing Kui next to her, and said, "Send someone to find out where Liu Hongxin often goes. It would be great if we could find the young lady he raised at the mansion back then."

Qing Kui replied: "Yes, I understand."

"By the way, let people stare at Mrs. Wu, if there is anything unusual, tell me right away."

"Yes."

After finishing the order, Su Lingxi's lips suddenly showed a faint smile, which made people's heart tremble.

In the past, she only hated Liu Hongxin, but now she hated the entire Uncle Zhongyi's residence. Thinking about the humiliation she suffered that day, she couldn't hold back the monstrous hatred in her heart.
