Chapter 214 The first and second wives quarreled
"Fourth sister, what you said is not quite right, is it? My eldest brother is just recovering from his injuries. The gambling incident before was clearly someone framing him, and he had no choice but to admit it. In the future, it is better to say less about such unfounded things."
"Besides, although my father has lost his official position, it is because the emperor understands that my father has worked hard, so he let him rest at home. And it is not certain that he will rest forever. Who knows, the emperor may let him return to his official position one day if he is in a good mood."
"Of course, it is possible that I will not only be reinstated. After all, my father and the emperor are relatives, and I am the emperor's daughter-in-law. It is reasonable even if I am promoted." Su Yunrou said with a faint smile.
Su Yunrou's words made Liu and Su Zhiyi look much better, and even Hua Jiaoniang looked a little more relaxed.
Su Yunrou was right. Who knows, one day the master might be reinstated, or even promoted!
Liu had never thought that the eldest master would be able to return to his post one day, but after hearing what Su Yunrou said, it seemed that the possibility was quite high.
Su Zhiyi was even more excited. He and the emperor were relatives, and maybe one day he would be allowed to return to the Ministry of Rites.
Su Qingwan noticed that the expressions of the people in the first house suddenly eased, and she felt that they underestimated the emperor's disgust for Su Zhiyi.
According to Emperor Wen Jin's personality, not to mention employing Su Zhiyi, he did not have anyone arrest him, which was already a consideration of the father-son relationship between him and Prince Rui.
"What you said does make sense, second sister. After all, you are going to marry Prince Rui and become his wife soon. It's just that Prince Rui is recuperating in the palace now and cannot go out. After you get married, second sister, you will have to take care of Prince Rui. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to come back to the Marquis' Mansion to see us." Su Qingwan said regretfully.
The people in the Marquis' Mansion knew very well what state Prince Rui was in now.
After such a long time, the Emperor still hasn't lifted the confinement on Prince Rui, which shows how much the Emperor dislikes him now.
After Su Yunrou gets married, there is a 99% chance that she will be imprisoned in Prince Rui's mansion just like Prince Rui. By then, let alone returning to the Marquis' Mansion, she might not even be able to leave the palace.
Su Yunrou showed a hint of anger. Su Qingwan's words were exactly what she was worried about, so she would not marry Prince Rui, and naturally there would be no situation in which she could leave the palace.
"Fourth sister, you worry too much. It is destined that I will marry a prince, but whether I marry Prince Rui or Prince Qi is not certain. But no matter which prince I marry, I will be able to take care of the Marquis' Mansion in the future. When the time comes, Fourth sister will have to kowtow to me when she sees me again."
There was a cold flash in Su Yunrou's eyes. She really wanted to see Su Qingwan kneeling in front of her unwillingly.
Jiang Shi became nervous unconsciously. From what Su Yunrou said, she could tell that she was bothered by what Shang Qingwan had just said.
Upon hearing this, Liu straightened her back, looked at Xiaokang with contempt, and her demeanor immediately became more proud.
My daughter will be a princess in the future, and maybe even a queen. So what if your son can become the top scorer in the imperial examination?
When you meet my daughter and son-in-law, don’t you still have to kneel three times and kowtow nine times?
Thinking of this, Liu felt that every pore in her body was relaxed!
She couldn't rely on her son, but she still had her daughter to depend on. Even the entire marquis's mansion would have to live according to her daughter's wishes.
And even if the Marquis' Mansion does not have a crown prince now, the position of crown prince will definitely belong to Yue Jie.
When Su Qingwan heard that Su Yunrou had completely disregarded the face of King Rui in front of everyone and directly dragged King Qi into the conversation, she immediately said with a smile:
"Second sister, you are indeed so lucky that people envy you. Not only is Prince Rui very kind to you, but even Prince Qi has been pursuing you and doting on you. To be favored by two princes at the same time, I don't know how many women are envious of you. So, second sister is really blessed."
Su Qingwan was talking happily, but Su Lihan was furious. She looked at Su Yunrou with contempt and sneered.
"Fourth sister, please stop praising the second sister. How can there be a young lady from a marquis's mansion like her? She is like a vixen, flirting with His Royal Highness Prince Rui and also flirting with His Royal Highness Prince Qi. If you don't know her, you would think she is a famous prostitute in some brothel. This vixen's skills are really amazing."
Su Lihan was angry and didn't know how to control her words, which were extremely unpleasant to the ear.
Su Lihan thought about the things she had ordered to be sent to Prince Qi's mansion, which were embroidered by girls themselves, to express her feelings, but they were all rejected. It must be that bitch Su Yunrou who was interfering, and maybe she even said a lot of bad things about her behind her back.
So Su Lihan is as stupid as Xiao Kangshi, and will get angry as long as someone provokes her!
Liu and Su Yunrou's faces changed immediately, and even Hua Yi Niang's face became ugly. She thought unhappily:
Just talk about your own things, why are you bringing Hua Jie'er into this for no reason?
Even though she used to be a woman in a brothel, she is now a concubine in the Marquis's mansion, and she has a lot of gold in her pocket. She is just waiting for the fruit to ripen and she will give birth to a big fat boy. Then she will have a solid backer in the Marquis's mansion.
"Su Lihan, shut your rude mouth. If you dare to say anything nonsense again, I will tear your mouth apart!"
Su Yunrou was angry!
She is the queen, and the bitch Su Lihan actually dared to compare her with the girls in the brothel. It is simply unforgivable!
It’s a pity that she had previously hoped that the people in the second house would be as successful and wealthy as in her dream!
But look at what the people in the second room are doing now?
Su Yueqi insulted his elder brother in front of everyone, Su Lihan mocked herself as a vixen in a brothel, and Xiao Kang didn't care about the relationship between sisters-in-law at all.
She shouldn't let the second wife have a good life.
"You are the uneducated one. Who is like you? You run around to flirt with the two princes all day long. Today you meet Prince Rui, and tomorrow you meet Prince Qi. You are shameless!" Su Lihan was not afraid of Su Yunrou's threat at all.
Su Yunrou is a bitch in herself. She has already been granted marriage to Prince Rui, but she is still hooking up with Prince Qi. It is obvious that she doesn't want to make life easy for herself, so why should I save face for her?
"Bitch!" Su Yunrou pointed angrily.
"You are the bitch!" Su Lihan did not show any weakness.
"Second girl, our Li Han is not wrong. Didn't you go out to meet the King of Qi a few days ago? If it weren't for this, your father might still be in office."
Xiaokang chimed in, saying that she really didn't give the people from the first wife any face at all.
Liu and Su Zhiyi both had dark faces. Su Zhiyi claimed that he was a man and the eldest brother, so he was embarrassed to say anything unpleasant to his sister-in-law. But Liu didn't indulge her and said angrily:
"Xiao Kang, don't go too far. Don't think I don't know that you want Su Lihan to marry Prince Rui or Prince Qi. Don't you see what kind of person your daughter is? How can she compare to Yun Rou? She also wants to climb up the high branch of the royal family. Is she worthy?"
"Why is she not worthy? My daughter is also a daughter of a marquis, and has the same status as Su Yunrou. Why can Su Yunrou be a princess, but my daughter can't? What a joke!"
"To be honest, Li Han is much better than the second girl. The second girl's shabby reputation has long been known throughout the streets and alleys. Our Li Han does not have her shameless reputation. Only you, sister-in-law, are complacent all day long. You don't even think about it. With such a reputation, who else can she marry except the Prince Rui who is despised by the emperor?"
