Chapter 304 Returning Home

Su Qingwan returned to the backyard, and the maid brought hot tea and fruits. Lu Jing met a few confidants in the front yard, and Su Qingwan did not disturb him. Qingyun happily told the process of beating Lu Feng, and gave the stolen property to Su Qingwan to take a look. Su Qingwan smiled and said lightly, "Since you stole it, you can keep it!"

The newlywed days were extremely peaceful. If there was anything Su Qingwan was not used to, it was that there was an extra person beside her. Her life was gradually invaded, and both her body and her living habits gradually changed. She also tried her best to adapt to this change. After three days, she returned to her parents' home. Lu Jing and Su Qingwan went to Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion.

The Marquis's wife prepared a banquet early and asked the sons of the second house of the Marquis's mansion to come and accompany them. She took Su Qingwan to the backyard. Su Qingwan knew that the Marquis's wife cared about her very much. In fact, she was eager for such care and felt guilty. After the fall of the palace, the Marquis's wife was also ill for many years and stayed at home. Her temperament changed a lot. She was very concerned about Su Qingwan's happiness and peace. Su Qingwan tried to comfort her, but it was useless.

"Aunt, I am doing really well in the palace. Lu Jing is also a trustworthy person. The eldest wife of the Lu family does not live in the palace, so there are fewer troubles. My mother-in-law does not live in the palace either, so my life is very peaceful."

"That's good!" The Marquis's wife hadn't been eating or sleeping well these past few days. She was worried about Su Qingwan and was also afraid that something might happen on the day of her return home. Few people in the capital had seen Su Qingwan. There were no rumors yet. When she held a banquet in the future, she would always invite the ladies of various mansions. If others saw that she looked exactly like Xie Zhaolan, there would be more rumors. "What should I do in the future?"

"Mother, don't worry so much. Xiaowu doesn't care. You worry about her reputation every day. You can't eat or sleep well. You have lost weight recently." Chen Lanzhu said unhappily, "If you fall ill and someone bullies Xiaowu, then no one will support her."

"Yes, you are right, I have to take care of my health!"

Su Qingwan and Chen Lanzhu looked at each other and laughed. Su Qingwan didn't think that anyone could bully her. She was not a soft persimmon. Lu Jing was in a high position and had great power. Who in the whole Kyoto dared to provoke her except Lu Feng?

"Xiao Wu, when are you going to hold the banquet? According to etiquette, after the wedding, the palace will hold a banquet, and you will also have to meet the ladies of the various palaces." The Marquis's wife couldn't hide her worry between her brows, "Are you ready?"

"Lu Jing's wedding leave is ten days. I'll come and do it after ten days." Su Qingwan has much more free time after her marriage. There are fewer people in the palace, so there are fewer things to do and no disputes. It's very peaceful. In her free time, she manages the Xie family's business and inquires about the war situation in Huainan. Lu Jing is honest with her and does not hide the war in Huainan. Even if he wants to hide it, if Nian Qing really gets into trouble, the princess will come to find her.

Chen Lanzhu said, "You may not be familiar with the women of the various mansions in the capital. I will copy a list for you later. I have recorded the temperaments and preferences of the women of each mansion. You should think about it carefully. Some wives of the royal family are not easy to offend. They have a wide range of connections. Although Lu Jing is the regent, their royal family has a complex network of power. It is very painful to stab them with a soft knife. You'd better not offend them."

The communication between the ladies of various mansions is very complicated. From a sentence to the seating arrangement to whether the etiquette is thorough, everything is watched by countless eyes. Su Qingwan is the princess of a royal family. Although the ladies of various mansions want to curry favor with her, they also have to test her preferences. In addition, she looks similar to Xie Zhaolan, and many people have seen Xie Zhaolan. This banquet... I am afraid it will be bloody.

There must be rumors flying everywhere!

Su Qingwan didn't expect that Chen Lanzhu would do such a meticulous thing. Madam Hou said, "It's better to be meticulous, so as not to suffer losses. The ladies are very careful and their words are very careful. When dealing with them in Beijing, you must be careful in what you say and do. The relationship between in-laws is complicated, and the Lu family has not been deeply involved in the capital. These powerful clans think highly of themselves and may not take the Lu family seriously."

Even though Lu Jing was second only to one person, they still had clans and complicated in-law relationships, and one move could affect the whole body. In the future, Su Qingwan would definitely be the core of the female family, so she had to get familiar with him as soon as possible.
