The moment she met this look, all of Sun's thoughts disappeared completely.
Not even daring to look at her again, Mrs. Sun looked away in a panic, and turned her back, the handkerchief in her hand was tightly pinched by her.
The wives were all confused by her sudden behavior, and the paleness on Sun's face couldn't be concealed.
Mrs. Sun grabbed Song Jing's hand and forced an apologetic smile, "I'm really sorry, I've made this old problem again, and I have a terrible headache."
Although the wives felt that she was too sudden, but she was not feeling well, so they held on to her, it shouldn't be, even though they were extremely curious about the matter of the Hou's residence.
But Sun's expression did not seem to be fake, and in the end someone asked her to rest first with concern.
Sun shi did enough sympathy again to let Song Jing help her back to the yard.
Along the way, Mrs. Sun and Song Jing had to support themselves before entering the yard. Mrs. Sun's straight back suddenly softened, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
"It's the mother who is sorry for you, but she can't even protect you. It's the mother who is useless." Sun cried heartbroken, as if Song Jing was not separated from life, but from death.
Song Jing didn't panic, she lowered her head, tears blurred her eyes, and her face was full of bewilderment about the future.
Sun held Song Jing in her arms and cried loudly. If it wasn't for Nanny Zhao's persuasion that she should not leave the banquet for too long as the mistress, then the crying would last.
But even though Nanny Zhao persuaded her in time, Mrs. Sun's eyes were still red and swollen from crying.
Mrs. Zhao is impatient, she understands some things better than Mrs. Sun, Mrs. Sun going out like this will definitely lead to people's speculation. If this banquet is not good, the old lady will not let it go lightly.
Let the maid fetch hot water, and Mrs. Zhao soaked the handkerchief, "Madam, hurry up and put your eyes on it, how can you see people if you continue like this."
Sun still felt grief and anger, "Now that my daughter is going to be sent away, why should I go out to meet someone?"
Nanny Zhao became even more anxious, knowing that she was speaking out of anger, "This is the old lady's birthday banquet. No matter how madam is, today's banquet must not go wrong."
Mrs. Sun is now full of thoughts about her daughter being sent away, and also blames why the old lady didn't talk to her about it, but she just told everyone today.
"Ma'am, you are more than just the eldest daughter and the second daughter. If you still care about the eldest son and the second daughter, you shouldn't be arrogant." Mrs. Zhao said earnestly. She didn't know why Madam was so persistent and insisted on keeping the eldest girl by her side.
Nanny Zhao just watched the madam during this time, thinking about the elder girl's affairs, saying that she was preparing for the old lady's birthday, but in fact most of the things were taken care of by the second wife Hu.
It's just that no matter how much Mrs. Zhao persuaded her, Mrs. Sun still felt the same way, and now Mrs. Zhao also thought the same way. It's better to just send the eldest girl away. If it goes on like this, the madam will become more and more shameless.
When Sun was mentioned to the other two sons and daughters, her spirits did lift a little, but when she thought of Yuan'er's indifference to her, she suddenly became a little sadder.
Nanny Zhao really had no choice but to say, "Miss, hurry up and persuade Madam."
Song Jing was weeping silently. After listening to Mrs. Zhao's words, she squeezed out a strong smile and encouraged her to persuade her, "Mother, you'd better go out quickly. Today's guests are all distinguished guests, so don't be lazy."
The result of Song Jing's opening was that Mrs. Sun cried loudly while hugging her.
Seeing that the time in the courtyard was getting longer and longer, Nanny Zhao was very anxious.
The banquet outside is nothing like the host's house, and the old lady is the protagonist of the birthday banquet, so it is even more impossible for her to entertain the guests.
At this moment, there was a knock on the courtyard door. The three of them were already not far from the courtyard door. Before Sun could enter the house, he began to cry.
The sound of the locks hitting each other became louder and louder, and Nanny Zhao had no choice but to step forward to respond.
"Who is outside?"
"it's me."
Nanny Zhao was startled, she recognized someone's voice, not only she recognized it, but also Sun Shi and Song Jing who were still immersed in sadness.
Sun did not dare to cry anymore and wiped away her tears.
When this person came, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help letting someone in, so she had to bite the bullet and go forward to open the door. Knowing that she was like this, she couldn't see people, so she dragged Song Jing into the house.
But never thought that there was more than one person here.
Even Mrs. Zhao who opened the door couldn't think of it. Mrs. Zhao said with a smile, "Mrs. Qian, you..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Mrs. Qian back away, letting out the people behind her.
It was the old lady and the second girl, and Mrs. Zhao had a bad heart.
"The old servant has met the old lady and the second girl."
Sun Shi and Song Jing's steps towards the house were also stagnant. At this moment, Sun Shi had no idea but panic.
"I met the old lady."
"Meet grandma."
Sun and Song Jing turned around to salute, but kept their heads down, not daring to let the old lady see their faces.
Tang Lihua didn't go in, but looked at the two coldly at the door, with Gong Liangyuan standing obediently beside her.
"I was so sad to hear you cry just now..." Tang Lihua just said this, and Sun's body became even stiffer.
If it was only behind her back, Sun would dare to think disrespectful to the old lady, but now that the old lady is in front of her eyes, she has no thoughts.
"Since you are so reluctant to give up your adopted daughter, disregarding the honor and disgrace of the Hou Mansion, and only wanting to be your Jinger, no matter what, I don't think you are worthy of the title of Mrs. Hou Mansion." Tang Lihua's eyes were cold, and the words in her mouth were, But the people present did not dare to say too much.
Mrs. Sun even softened her body and knelt down on the ground.
"Old madam, what do you mean?" Sun's face was full of panic.
Tang Lihua smiled sarcastically, "What do I mean? I want to ask you what you mean. As a dignified wife of the Marquis, you are dull-minded and unbearable. I don't know about it.
I thought that you would keep to your duty anyway, with the support of the steward, and that there were no mistakes in the accounts, so I didn't expect too much from you. "
Following these words, Mrs. Sun swayed her body.
"I don't ask about your family background, I only care about your character, but now it seems that I have treated you too leniently. I have lived a leisurely and rich life for a long time, so I let you discriminate between right and wrong, and behave absurdly." Tang Lihua mercilessly.
Song Jing also followed 'Putong' and kowtowed her head, "Zu... old madam, this is all my fault, everything has nothing to do with mother... Madam Hou, please calm down."
Her face was pale, and cold sweat was already breaking out on her forehead, she didn't want to drag her mother down.
After Song Jing finished speaking, she kowtowed a few more times, which made Sun's heart feel like a knife was twisted.
Her daughter who has been in love since she was a child, why did she suffer such a crime, not to mention being kicked out of the Hou's mansion, and kneeling and kowtowing because of her.
The grief and anger in Sun's heart became even worse, she stretched out her hand to stop, "I don't blame you, you will always be a good daughter of mother."
Song Jing avoided her hand, wanting to distance herself from her mother so that her grandmother wouldn't drag her down.
By the way, she is no longer the daughter of the Hou family, she should be the old lady and Mrs. Hou.
"I beg for mercy, old lady, Jing'er is innocent. Is there really no place for Jing'er in our Hou Mansion?" Sun forgot the panic just now and looked up at the old lady. At this time, she still wanted Jing'er to stay. In the Hou's mansion, only by staying under my nose can I feel at ease.
Tang Lihua's eyes were calm, "Since you asked, I'll tell you that she, Song Jing, is not from the Hou Mansion, and she was also the benefactor of the Hou Mansion for more than ten years. Now that she knows it, she should leave voluntarily."
Sun's heart was cold, but Song Jing seemed to accept this statement, showing a wry smile, "The old lady is very right, I am too greedy, I am content with the status quo, and I don't want to leave."
"No, Jing'er..." Sun wanted to refute.
But Song Jing grabbed her arm, "Mrs. Hou, don't be persistent anymore, it's really not worth it for me."
Sun couldn't stop crying again, her face was full of sadness, Tang Lihua frowned.
These two people staged this mother-daughter relationship in front of her, as if she was a villain who forced other people's mother and daughter to separate.
But it seemed to be the case, Tang Lihua was amused by her own thoughts.
"Forget it, I don't want to be this villain anymore, my heart softens when I get old..." Tang Lihua paused slightly as she spoke.
Let Mrs. Sun think that there is going to be a turnaround, and even Song Jing, who is full of dead eyes, has hope in his eyes.
"Just go with her. If Song Jing leaves, you will be heartbroken and depressed, and you will ignore other things. For your life, you should go with Song Jing. I will declare your heart to the public." Worry, I went to the nunnery to practice meticulously." Tang Lihua waved her hand, her tone indifferent.
Nanny Zhao knelt down and shouted, "Old madam can't do it, madam, she just can't turn around for a while, and she can figure it out after a while..."
Mrs. Sun, on the other hand, was stunned by these words, and couldn't even say anything to excuse herself.
Seeing that it was useless to beg the old lady, Mrs. Zhao knelt on the ground and moved in front of the second girl, "Second girl, please persuade the old lady, the lady is also your mother."
Gong Liangyuan always watched all this with cold eyes, watching Sun's protection of Song Jing, and her mother never looked at her from the beginning to the end.
Gong Liangyuan thinks it's ridiculous, the self in her previous life is too ridiculous, so what about her own life, she can never compare with the one raised by her side, why can't she see through her previous life.
"Madam loves her daughter dearly, and she has a mother's love. This is beyond my control." Gong Liangyuan said coldly, which made Sun stunned again.
Sun was too unfamiliar with this daughter who had just been brought back, she looked at herself as if she were an insignificant outsider, as if she was not her mother.
At this time, Gong Liangyuan was so indifferent, Sun kept shaking her head, with a smile and tears on her face, "You are not my daughter, you are not my daughter."
Although Nanny Zhao was startled by the second girl's heartlessness, she was even more horrified when she heard Sun's words.
Why can't Mrs. Sun see the form clearly? Everything the old lady has done is for the second girl.
Gong Liangyuan's eyes were full of sarcasm, "I'm not your daughter, Song Jing is the only daughter in your heart, isn't it?"
Sun's heart was hit hard, and she was on the verge of collapsing.
Tang Lihua waved her hand, "That's the end of the matter, let's start packing in the next few days."
As she said that, she turned and left, and Gong Liangyuan naturally followed, after all, the banquet outside was still going on, and it would be inappropriate to miss this moment.
Sun's soul was lost, and Song Jing's heart was ashamed.
At this time, Mrs. Zhao already felt resentful towards the eldest girl in her heart, if it wasn't for her, Madam wouldn't be so confused.
It was as if the madam had been bewitched by Song Jing, and now she was so implicated that even the Madam of the Hou Mansion lost her position.
At this moment, Nanny Zhao couldn't help but feel defeated, no matter what she was, Madam didn't listen, and she took it for granted step by step.
