Chapter 41 Coming

"When the witchcraft doll was dug out of my daughter's yard, my mother acted too hastily. How could Mr. Du from the City Patrol Department arrive in such a timely manner? Who went to the City Patrol Department to report the news?"

Song Jinyue looked into Shen's eyes with a somewhat meaningful smile.

"It can be seen that mother's cooking in this house is not satisfactory..." After a pause, he looked at his father with a serious expression, and continued: "If you ask people with ulterior motives to cause trouble in the future, don't do it.

It’s better to ruin my father’s reputation!”

Song Jinyue spoke slowly, and Duke Song began to sweat in his heart. When he looked at Mrs. Shen again, there was a bit of hatred in his eyes.

But after all, they had been married for many years, and because Song Guogong felt that he owed a lot to the Shen family in the first half of his life, they didn't say anything for a while.

Song Jinyue mentioned again the scene when Nanny Zhao sent by the Shen family went to Yunquan Villa to pick her up.

Song Guogong didn't look good at all when he heard this.

Shen's eyes were sharply scratched.

A few days ago, when the witchcraft doll was sent to the city inspection department, Duke Guo of Song felt that Shen had no brains. However, Shen made a fuss and cried, so he didn't mention it again.

Now, comparing the two, I just feel that the mother-in-law is not acting properly, and the daughter who is raising her daughter will also lack etiquette.

Song Guogong's face was as dark as the bottom of the pot that had been burning for more than ten years under the stove.

Mrs. Shen suddenly stopped talking and said no more.

"Mother, I wonder who supported Aunt Zhao to be so arrogant in front of her daughter?" Song Jinyue had a smile on her lips, but her eyes fell completely on Aunt Zhao behind Mrs. Shen.

Aunt Zhao suddenly trembled in fright. She thought that the matter was over, but who knew that the second lady would bring it up again today.

She hurriedly walked to the main hall, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed, "The Duke is aware of it, and even if I borrow a hundred courages from my old slave, he would not dare to neglect the second lady..."

After saying that, Nanny Zhao looked timid and secretly glanced at Song Jinyue from the corner of her eye.

"Father, do you think your daughter is a villain who will make things difficult for the mothers?" Song Jinyue sneered and looked at her father.

If she talks about the patrolling of the city before, it only slightly bothers her father.

But in the end, Aunt Zhao who was beside Shen ignored her, which overcame the last line of defense in her father's heart.

She had stayed away from Beijing to serve her mother for five years, and her father felt sorry for her. Nothing in this world could make up for it.

Song Guogong glared at Mr. Shen. Now, the affairs of the back house were brought to his attention. Wasn't this a clear attempt to embarrass him!

"But after all, you pawned the gifts your mother and your eldest sister gave you, and you even caused a scene in the capital to watch the jokes of our Duke's Palace..."

Song Guogong's face was still unhappy, he cleared his throat, but he was thinking about how to punish him.

The daughter did something wrong, but Mrs. Shen's stepmother did something wrong too.

The matter with the City Patrol Department has not yet passed.

What if we only punish the daughter but not Shen?

But if the rights of the Shen family as head of the family are taken back, then who will be in charge of the huge back house of the Duke of Guo?

For the moment, he just hated that there were not many people available in the backyard.

"Boss..."

While Song Guogong was thinking, a deep and deep voice pulled Song Guogong's attention away from the courtyard.

Outside the main hall, an old woman wearing a dark purple double-breasted Confucian jacket and with silver hair was being supported by her mother-in-law and was walking towards the main hall.

"Boss, don't blame your wife. She knew that she was not managing the house properly, so she sent someone to personally invite me, this old woman, back."

The person who came was none other than Song Guogong's aunt who had died of old age and had no contact with her.

The mother-in-law helped Mrs. Song into the main hall. Duke Song's face was livid, and his eyes were like daggers falling on Mrs. Shen.

Mr. Shen is really stupid.

I wonder if he has always disliked this aunt Jiangnan?

Now, still behind his back, Baba invited people to the capital.

Mr. Shen is really good! In these years, he himself has manipulated Mr. Shen to no end, and that is why Mr. Shen dares to do anything!

Mrs. Song walked to Duke Song, let go of her grandma's hand, her eyes were slightly red, and she raised her head slightly, looking at Duke Song who was a head taller than herself, "Boss, are you still holding a grudge against your aunt?"

...However, my aunt also has difficulties. Those things were handed down from the ancestors. If they are lost, the old woman will not be able to face the ancestors even if she is dead!"

After Mrs. Song finished speaking, she turned her back and her shoulders twitched. Grandma hurriedly took the veil and comforted the old lady.

Song Guogong didn't say a word, he just looked at his aunt.

Thinking of those past events.

He hated it so much.

If it weren't for his fame and title, he would have wished to go to Jiangnan and cause a scene.

How had his father and grandfather ever owed his brother-in-law a house? But what happened in the end? His aunt took away all the belongings of the already crumbling Guogong Mansion overnight.

This matter has become the laughing stock of everyone in the capital who doesn’t want to give some advice?

If the late emperor hadn't felt indebted to the Song family, he would have arranged this marriage between the Song and Zhang families.

The Duke of Song is in the capital and has nowhere to turn around!

"Boss, after all these years...are you still unwilling to forgive your aunt?" Mrs. Song's face was covered with tears, and her vicissitudes of life were full of traces of time.

A pair of thin and withered hands hung in the air, wanting to pat Song Guogong on the shoulder.

But I was afraid that I would offend him.

As the women in the room watched, Song Guogong looked around and felt his head was buzzing.

Mrs. Shen was shocked when she heard Mrs. Song's words.

When did she write to this aunt in Jiangnan?

She stepped forward, supported Mrs. Song, looked at Duke Song with a pair of phoenix eyes full of guilt, and muttered: "Master, I am not a concubine."

"Aunt, I never sent a letter asking you to come to the capital..."

Mrs. Song originally wanted to stage a drama of reunion after a long absence, but it was obvious that Mr. Shen ruined the situation as soon as she came up.

Immediately, he glared at Mrs. Shen, glanced at Grandma behind him, and motioned for Grandma to bring up the things.

The grandma came forward with a black box in her hands. Mrs. Song stepped forward and opened the black box. Inside was a bottle of white jade Guanyin.

"This is the gift you ordered to give to me, this old woman. You said that you have made a mistake in the capital, and you asked me, this old woman, to take charge of your family!"

"Here, this thing, I gave it to the second lady yesterday. I hope the master will find out!"

After Shen finished speaking, the eyes of everyone in the room fell on Song Jinyue.

She was still kneeling in the main hall, her head lowered, wondering what she was thinking.

"Yue'er, tell me!"

Song Guogong's voice came, and Song Jinyue slowly raised her eyes. As soon as Mrs. Song came in, she lowered her head and counted the days. Yesterday, Mrs. Song received the letter she sent in the name of Shen.

I don’t want to think too much, maybe my luggage is still on the way?

I think I set off for the capital early this morning.

"Returning to father, this thing was given to me by my mother. Just seeing this white jade Guanyin, my daughter thought of her little grandmother in Jiangnan. After all, the whole family is closely related to each other. Now she sees the decline of the people in the Duke's mansion..."

When Song Jinyue said this, her eyes completely fell on Mrs. Shen, implying that she had not made any progress for many years since she entered the family, but she did not know how to take a concubine for her father so that she could spread the fragrance of the Duke's palace.

"I just thought that I would ask my little grandmother to come to the capital to stay for a few days. It's been a few years now, so I can make the house lively and lively."
