Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 222
Naturally, Su Wan would not refuse, so she took the girl and got into the carriage of Lingbihou Mansion.

After entering the inner city, the carriage stopped within half an hour.

Su Wan followed Mother Ding into the Hou Mansion.

Mama Ding has been paying attention to Su Wan's expression, and found that she was just out of curiosity, and after a little sizing up, she didn't show that kind of envy and amazement. Even her two maids lowered their heads obediently. .This made Mama Ding even more surprised. At the same time, her impression of Su Wan kept rising, and there was almost no trace of contempt left in her heart.

Still thinking in my heart, she really deserves to be my wife's niece, after all, she is not comparable to ordinary shabby households.

Su Wan followed her through the south hall, the inner ceremony hall, and then entered the main courtyard.

At this time, someone had already notified Mrs. Lingbihou of Su Wan's arrival.

Madam Lingbihou couldn't sit still for a long time, and no matter what the rules were, she left the house early, surrounded by maids and women, and stood on the steps outside the door waiting for Su Wan. After seeing Su Wan, she didn't say anything. The eye circles are already red.

Even though Su Wan felt a little guilty and guilty towards Mrs. Lingbihou, since she made up her mind to use this identity, she would not allow herself to show her flaws. If Mrs. Lingbihou treated her well, she would naturally reciprocate, sincerely to wait.

Seeing Mrs. Lingbihou, she hurried forward to pay her respects.

At this time, there was already a servant girl, and a brocade mat was placed in front of her. Su Wan knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Lingbihou. Look!"

After Su Wan was helped up by the maids, she hurried over.

As soon as she walked over, she was grabbed by Madam Lingbihou. She looked at Su Wan carefully, as if missing someone through her, or looking for traces of her sister on her face. Finally, Then he touched Su Wan's shoulder and back affectionately, his excitement and love were beyond words.

When Su Wan was scrutinized by Mrs. Lingbihou, she was very nervous, afraid that she would see some flaws, but she had already prepared her heart and adjusted her mentality quickly, but she didn't raise her head to meet her eyes , as if shy, blushed slightly and lowered his head to avoid her sight.

Fortunately, Mrs. Lingbihou didn't find anything wrong. Instead, she seemed very satisfied with her. She took Su Wan's hand and said, "Sister Wan, it's windy outside, let's go in and talk."

"Yes." Su Wan nodded submissively, and followed Mrs. Lingbihou into the house.

Madam Lingbihou took Su Wan to the flower hall at the back, and took Su Wan to sit on the Arhat couch. At this time, the room was already full of people, maids, young girls, and three young woman dressed as a lady.

These people looked at Su Wan curiously, with different expressions, but most of them were not hostile to Su Wan, but they didn't have too many good intentions.

After all, for many people, Su Wan is a poor relative who came to play Qiufeng, but this poor relative has a different status, she is only his wife's niece.But no matter what, it is a fact that Su Wan's background is humble, and this fact alone makes them look down on her.

For people who are not of the same class as themselves, even if they know that Su Wan is Madam Lingbihou's niece, it is difficult for them to have a good impression all of a sudden.

However, Su Wan's appearance and her neither humble nor overbearing demeanor made them have a better impression of Su Wan, at least they did not despise and reject her so much.

Mrs. Lingbihou looks less than 40 years old, but the white hair on her head is half white, and her figure is a little thin. Even so, she can still see her beauty when she was young. She looks like this , presumably her younger sister is not much different.

It's no wonder that even though these people thought that Su Wan's appearance was extraordinary, they didn't doubt it. It must be because of this reason.

Sure enough, Mrs. Lingbihou sighed softly: "Miss Wan'er is really good-looking, even prettier than your mother when she was young. When I saw you, I almost didn't dare to recognize you."

However, seeing Su Wan dressed as a woman, Madam Lingbihou showed a fierce look on her face again, and said: "You don't have to be a widow, my niece is not someone who can be bullied by everyone. Wait for you After getting rid of the service, I will find you a good marriage in Beijing, with your appearance and the power of our Lingbihou Mansion, I'm afraid you won't find a good one."

Madam Lingbihou secretly made up her mind that she must find a good marriage for Su Wan, and then give her a generous dowry, so that she can live a peaceful and beautiful life.

"Aunt..." Su Wan couldn't laugh or cry, and was about to refuse, but was interrupted by Madam Lingbihou, "Come on, Wan'er, let me introduce you, your sister-in-laws and two younger sisters."

Madam Lingbihou pointed to a 25-year-old woman who was the leader, and said: "This is your sister-in-law Yu, and she is the housekeeper now. If you need anything in the future, just look for her."

"Sister-in-law." Su Wan knew that this Yu family was the wife of the Marquis of Lingbi, so she quickly got up and greeted her.

"Hello, sister." Yu Shi, the wife of Lingbi Hou Shizi, seemed a little complicated, and her smile seemed unnatural, but she quickly covered up the past and said eagerly: "If my sister is missing something, or if there is something missing, Just look for me, if there are servants who make things difficult for my sister, don't be bored, tell me, I will vent my anger for my sister."

Su Wan hurriedly thanked her with a smile.

Seeing that the two had known each other before, Mrs. Lingbihou pointed to another woman with a slightly cold appearance and said, "This is your second sister-in-law Qin."

Su Wan greeted her again.

It seems that Qin Shi is not good at talking, so she just said something to Su Wan lightly and that's all.

Finally, Mrs. Lingbihou pointed to the youngest new daughter-in-law and said, "This is your three... siblings." Thinking about Su Wan's age, she was half a year older than her concubine, so she changed it in time. mouthed.

The two met again.

This third younger sibling is surnamed Wu, but she looks delicate and soft, her eyes are misty and always seem to be filled with tears, as if someone is bullying her. Su Wan doesn't like this type of woman very much, but when she thinks of her future It had nothing to do with her, so he didn't care.

Then, Su Wan met the two concubines of Marquis Lingbi, the fourth girl Tang Huiyu, the fifth girl Tang Lingyu, and several other girls, but they were already married.

The fourth girl, Tang Huiyu, is about 15 years old and looks very calm. She must be smart enough to be named "Hui".

And the fifth girl Tang Lingyu, 14 years old, looks a bit eccentric, and her appearance is also exquisite and small. The two have their own characteristics.

After meeting each other, the delicate and gentle Wu family looked at Su Wan for a while, and suddenly said: "Cousin looks kind of nice, have we met somewhere before?"
