Sheng Chong and Abandoned Concubine: The Sixth Miss Doctor

Chapter 24 Another Thorn in the Flesh
Mother He hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, she has already been invited, and she will not come."

Mrs. Han showed a slight smile, stood up, and said in a pitiful tone: "Her mind is just getting back to normal, I'm afraid she won't be able to turn around for a while, and then don't be as annoying as that one. Let's go." , I'm afraid the master and Cheng Shizi will also arrive."

She held Mother He's hand to the banquet living room, and following her steps, the fine-textured light skirt rippled like water waves, bursting with fragrance.

Aunt Sun brought the second miss Xu Wanhui, and Wu's mother accompanied the fifth miss Xu Wanyin.

Seeing her coming, several people immediately stepped forward to say hello.

At this time, a woman came to report: "The eldest young master accompanied the master and Cheng Shizi to the gate of the courtyard, and young master Lian accompanied him."

The smile on Mrs. Han's face froze, she said in shock, "Why is he here?"

Mother He knew what she meant.

Xu Lian was a thorn in her eye.

Although his surname is Xu, he is not the father-in-law's son, but an orphan picked up on the battlefield.

The Grand Duke brought him by his side to raise him, named him Xu Lian, and even regarded him as the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion in a certain sense.

Mrs. Han naturally resented this, and she urged the old lady to make Xu Lian's name clear a long time ago, at most she is the adopted son of the Duke's Mansion, and she must not compete with her son Xu Fangzheng.

She even intentionally or unintentionally classified Xu Lian as Xu Yaoqing's bodyguard and entourage, at least to make the servants think so, and also to make Xu Lian think so, and she absolutely must not covet the Duke's mansion.

What is gratifying is that the old lady absolutely supported her, and Xu Yaoqing was not allowed to include Xu Lian in the family tree, and her brainwashing of Xu Lian also achieved results.

Xu Lian mostly stayed in the barracks and rarely came to the Duke's mansion. Even when he came, he usually did business for Xu Yaoqing and never set foot in the backyard.

It's just that Xu Lian is not an ordinary person. She is very pleased with Xu Yaoqing's side these years and has a very important position in the hearts of the outer court and the generals, which makes Mrs. Han very upset.

It's a pity that her hands are not that long, and she can't reach Xu Yaoqing's army.

As for the family banquet in the Duke's Mansion, Xu Lian was always invited by pretense in the past, so he naturally refused to come.

This time, of course, they behaved as usual. Everyone decided that he would not come, so how could they know that he would follow.

It was unexpected.

There is one more reason for Madam Han's displeasure with him. A few days ago, Xu Lingyue made a fuss in the kitchen, but he ended it. If he hadn't really killed those girls, Xu Lingyue would not be able to blackmail Aunt Fei.

What's more, if it wasn't for him to carry out the master's order, if it was someone else, those girls wouldn't have to die.

After all, it's just good to save the master's face, and the master gave orders out of anger, so it doesn't necessarily mean that he must be killed.

Xu Lian was obviously trying to curry favor with that damn girl.

why?
Mrs. Han was even more frustrated because when Gu Fang was his wife, this guy was Xu Yaoqing's servant and guard, but after Gu's death, he became the wife of the Duke's mansion, and this guy was adopted as a foster son.

It was a slap in the face for her.

Now this guy wants to steal her son's limelight more and more, he really wants to drive him away far away.

Fortunately, he even dared to poke her eyeballs.

Mother He comforted: "Ma'am, maybe the master asked him to accompany Cheng Shizi."

Mrs. Han was still unhappy: "Can't Brother Zheng be with you? Do you still need him?"

Mrs. Han's heart suddenly moved, maybe it was because——
