"Doesn't my husband believe in concubines?" Mrs. Zhang trotted all the way to stop General Rong, and must find a way to untie General Rong's knot, otherwise the gap will only grow wider.
"It's no secret that I have a peony flower on my body. As long as I ask a little bit, it may not be impossible to find out. I have known the general since I was thirteen years old. It has been almost fifteen years now. I have always kept my career. Don’t dare to make the slightest mistake, I only have the general in my heart.”
Mrs. Zhang said that tears were streaming down the corners of her eyes, and the crying pear blossoms were very pitiful, "Although I came from a humble background, I have always known the four characters of propriety, justice, integrity and shame. Back then, my mother would rather break my legs than let my concubine Dedicated to marrying into Rong's mansion to be a junior, it is because I admire the general and cannot tolerate others in my eyes, that's why I followed the general desperately."
Mrs. Zhang kept talking about all kinds of things in the past, and she cried softly, which made General Rong's heart weak for a while.
After this incident happened to Mrs. Liu, she never made an excuse. General Rong was also angry at that time and slapped Mrs. Liu in public, but Mrs. Liu just didn't explain, and looked at herself with a look of despair. Can not forget.
Even if Mrs. Liu made an excuse, General Rong would not be so angry, and would even choose to believe it, but Mrs. Liu's temper was too extreme, and she committed suicide after leaving a letter after giving birth.
This is clearly a guilty conscience, so he committed suicide in fear of guilt. General Rong has been brooding about this matter for more than ten years, and every time he thinks about it, he feels heartbroken and angry.
Now that Mrs. Zhang got involved in this kind of thing again, it suddenly provoked General Rong's anger, but Mrs. Zhang was smart, and kept trying to defend herself and appease General Rong Rong's anger.
General Rong paused, glanced at Mrs. Zhang, "Okay, I didn't say anything, you go back first."
With that said, General Rong turned around and left, left the Rong Mansion, and went directly to the government office.
"Did you kill yourself by biting your tongue?" General Rong was a little surprised. He wanted to ask clearly, but who knew that he died.
This cast another shadow over General Rong's heart, with mixed feelings in his heart.
"General Rong, it's not that I'm a lowly official. Now there's a lot of noise in the city, and the imperial doctor Fang has lost his official position as soon as you sued him. He is at home, but Mrs. Rong's illness has not improved at all. And that young master, This back and forth is really scandalous."
Jing Zhaoyin and General Rong had a good friendship, and he persuaded him in private, "General, Mrs. Rong is dying now, dozens of imperial physicians are helpless, why not let imperial physician Fang try, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope."
General Rong was even more annoyed when he heard this, "Thank you for your kindness, the doctor Fang has limited medical skills and has already injured my daughter. How dare I use my mother's body to experiment on him. Besides, Ling'er is my own flesh and blood, and the outside world is completely different." Nonsense!"
Seeing that he was stubborn, Jing Zhaoyin couldn't persuade him anymore, so he had to change the topic and say something else.
On the other hand, General Rong has a hurdle in his heart, and he doesn't want to question Mrs. Zhang. Once he agrees to let the imperial doctor Fang try again, wouldn't he slap himself in front of everyone in the world, admitting that Rong Ling is not his own daughter, and Mrs. Zhang is even more disloyal the person
Although General Rong was so persistent in his mouth, there was still a trace of doubt in his heart, more tangled and contradictory, pulling each other, which made him very troubled.
Rumors spread everywhere in Shengjing, and many people questioned General Rong's filial piety. For the sake of his own face, he would rather ignore his biological mother.
Mrs. Zhang got angry when she heard this, "Which wicked person is he who is keeping an eye on the Rong family and spreading rumors everywhere, go and send someone to investigate!"
Mrs. Zhang realized that since Rong Yue came back, the entire Rong family was not going well. Mrs. Zhang had an intuition that this incident must have something to do with Rong Yue.
She even felt that Rong Yue came back this time to find fault, otherwise she wouldn't be targeting herself and Rong Ling everywhere, maybe it was a game from the first day.
Mrs. Zhang calmed down and analyzed carefully, a cold sweat broke out on her back, she hadn't seen her in just a few months, Rong Yue still had such abilities, she really came back with a purpose.
"Go to the Guest House!"
Mrs. Zhang went to the welcoming courtyard in person. Rong Yue was sitting on the porch, flipping through books leisurely, with a pretty face, quiet and elegant, exuding a scent of books.
"Did you do this? You are also the daughter of the Rong family. Why did you frame the Rong family like this? What good does the collapse of the Rong family do to you?"
At this moment, Mrs. Zhang lost her previous patience and was too lazy to continue pretending, "Rong Yue, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your grandmother. If your grandmother knows that you have ruined the reputation of the Rong family, she will definitely be pissed off."
Rong Yue looked innocent, "Madam, what are you talking about? What do you mean I deliberately damaged the reputation of the Rong family? Why did I do this? What evidence does Madam have?"
Mrs. Zhang glared at Rong Yue angrily, while Rong Yue raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Besides, Ma'am is deliberately threatening Rong Yue with grandmother, is she trying to force Rong Yue to confess to her father, okay?" Wipe Madam's innocence?"
"You!" Mrs. Zhang really thought so, and came here to check on Rong Yue's tone. Now it seems that she is probably the one!
"You have such an eloquent mouth, don't think that you can get away with it without evidence, Rong Yue, don't go too far, don't blame me for not reminding you of what happens when you play with fire!"
Zhang shi flung his sleeves away angrily. Zhang shi was still afraid of Rong Yue's identity as the princess. If something happened, the Rong family would not be able to do business.
Now being trampled underfoot, Mrs. Zhang couldn't care less.
As soon as Mrs. Zhang left, Rong Yue withdrew her smile, "Keep an eye on grandma, don't let her have a chance to attack grandma."
The only thing Rong Yue is worried about is Mrs. Rong, the rest is up to fate.
Mrs. Zhang walked halfway, and the little maid rushed over. Mrs. Zhang was a little impatient, "What does it look like to be frizzy, and what's wrong this time?"
"Ma'am, there are rumors outside that the reason why the old lady's illness is not cured is because the introduction of the medicine by the second lady is wrong."
Mrs. Zhang frowned when she heard the words, "It's just nonsense. It's obvious that the doctor Fang is not skilled in medicine, so why blame Ling'er!"
Mrs. Zhang was also puzzled, she had already given Mrs. Rong the antidote, but Mrs. Rong didn't recover, but became weaker and weaker. It was really strange.
The little servant girl was reprimanded, she shivered, and immediately dared not speak any more.
"what else?"
The little maid trembled, and said slowly, "It is rumored that the second lady is not the general's daughter at all, and has no blood relationship with the old lady, so it will be invalid. If the eldest lady is used to goug out again, the old lady will be cured. "
When Mrs. Zhang heard the words, she slapped the little girl with her hands, and her eyes were red all over, "Presumptuous! The second lady suffered such a serious crime and gouged out two bowls of blood. It was all the fault of the imperial physician Fang himself, and she deliberately shifted the responsibility to Ling'er." , how could Linger not be the general's daughter?"
Zhang Shi was trembling with anger, wishing to blow off the anger of those who spread rumors behind their backs.
"Ma'am, the two husbands of the Liu family are here."
Mrs. Zhang heard that her entire brows were knotted, and when she looked up, she saw that Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu were invited, and her expressions were not very good.
Mrs. Zhang was getting angry, and when she saw the two of them, she said angrily, "Why are you here? The Liu family is really well-behaved. Where is Dang Rong's mansion, do you come here whenever you want?"
"Don't play tricks on me. It's this time, why are you showing off the prestige of the general's wife? If I were you, I would have found a place to hide a long time ago, and I wouldn't dare to swagger and shamelessly point fingers."
Mrs. Liu was not to be outdone, so she ignored Mrs. Zhang and taunted her.
Mrs. Zhang frowned when she heard the words, and glanced at the two of them, "You are the ones behind the scenes!"
"Ms. Zhang, are you crazy? You will bite anyone you pick up!" Mrs. Liu Er also joined the quarrel, "We are not here today to quarrel with you, we are here to find Sister Yue. It's the Rong Mansion, but it's also Sister Yue's home, we are Sister Yue's direct aunts, so it's only natural to visit Sister Yue."
Not far away, Rong Yue came slowly and bowed to the two Mrs. Liu in salute.
"Hey, my sister Yue, how come I lost so much weight after seeing you for a few days."
Mrs. Liu supported Rong Yue with a distressed expression, and even wiped the corners of her eyes when she was emotional, as if the Rong family had abused Rong Yue.
Mrs. Zhang's face was completely pale, "The last time Mrs. Liu saw Sister Yue was several years ago. At that time, Sister Yue was still a child. It's great that Mrs. Liu can still recognize Sister Yue. eyesight."
Mrs. Liu's expression was a little embarrassing when she heard the words, but she soon returned to normal, "Sister Yue, it's not that my aunt doesn't come to visit, but I'm really afraid that it will have a bad influence on you. Sister Yue, your second aunt and I heard You were sent to get married, and when you were so angry, you came to the Rong family to make a big fuss."
"That's right, so many years of grievances and forbearance didn't pay off. Instead, people bullied you, an orphan girl. Now that even Mrs. Rong is sick, no one will take you seriously."
Mrs. Liu Er also choked up her throat, and looked at Mrs. Zhang angrily.
"You are just a step-wife. What right do you have to occupy Sister Yue's dowry? Earlier you said that Sister Yue got married in a hurry and didn't have time to take it away. Now that he is back, when will you give the dowry to Sister Yue?"
In two or three sentences, Mrs. Liu Er said what she wanted to do, which was to regain the property for the Liu family.
Mrs. Zhang was stunned for a moment, unexpectedly the two would mention the dowry, isn't the dowry divided into two
Immediately, Mrs. Zhang understood that the Liu family was so greedy that they wanted all the dowry back!
"Hmph! The last time Sister Yue got married, both of you brought back half of the dowry and left. Now that Sister Yue is back, shouldn't you also return it?"
Mrs. Zhang was not to be outdone, and directly put the matter to a showdown, no one should think about it!
"Auntie, is this true?" Rong Yue immediately looked at the two Mrs. Liu, "Actually, the dowry was left by the mother..."
Mrs. Liu interrupted Rong Yue very quickly, "Sister Yue, we are also doing it for your own good. We are going to convert that batch of dowry into silver and send it back to you. We can't covet your dowry!"
Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu had known for a long time that the dowry would have to be returned to Liu's family in the future, but Rong Yue said it at this time, it would inevitably make Mrs. Zhang paranoid, and there was even more reason not to take out the rest.
So Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu discussed to return a small part of the dowry that was taken away to Rong Yue first, so that she could confidently help Rong Yue get the rest of the dowry.
"Don't worry, Aunt Ming'er will be carried back for you, and you'll be sure to get a lot of money!"
Rong Yue almost couldn't help laughing when she heard this, but she held back and nodded movedly.
Mrs. Zhang was dumbfounded, can the swallowed meat be spit out again
"Mrs. Zhang, what qualifications do you have as a stepmother to occupy the dowry of the eldest daughter? Sister Yue has already returned, so leave it to her." Mrs. Liu said.
"It's not that I won't give it to you, it's just that this dowry has always been kept by the old lady. If you hadn't insisted on making trouble last time, I wouldn't have pressured me to give it to you behind my back. The remaining half will have to wait The old lady has to wake up."
Zhang's eyeballs rolled, and he quickly thought of a countermeasure to delay.
"In case there is no dowry, or the old lady has other arrangements, when the old lady asks, I can't explain it."
Mrs. Zhang's meaning was very vague, she didn't say yes, she didn't say no, the two Mrs. Liu who directly blocked her had nothing to say.
Mrs. Liu smiled, "This time, I came here to solve the matter of Mrs. Rong. Sister Yue, your grandmother treated you well, and now she is sick and unconscious on the bed. As a granddaughter, you should do your best." No matter what outsiders say, you should give it a try whenever you have a chance."
"Sister Yue, your aunt is right. Come with us to Fangfu to find the imperial physician, make an apology, and ask the imperial physician to save the old lady."
After speaking, Mrs. Liu Er grabbed Rong Yue's hand and walked out.
