Chapter 172: Cui Wan mocks Song Tingchen
When Cui Wan received Su Tan's sound transmission note, Song Tingchen was kneeling at the door of the Su family.
In this way, he forced Cui Wan, Gu Mingzhu and others to reveal Su Tan's whereabouts.
"In the past, Xiaoxiao and I were sorry for her, but now, Xiaoxiao can't live without her mother."
Liu Qingyin, who stood between him and Su Tan, is already dead.
He killed her with his own hands.
No matter how angry Su Tan was, he should calm down.
No matter what, he was wrong to Su Tan, and he would spend the rest of his life atonement for his sins.
But all this shouldn't be blamed on Song Xiao.
Just as Cui Wan was about to curse, Gu Mingzhu had already held her hand.
Gu Mingzhu politely asked someone to invite Song Tingchen to a restaurant.
This restaurant is also owned by the Su family.
Several people were in a private room.
Gu Mingzhu had a faint smile on her lips, her expression calm. She looked at Song Tingchen and simply asked, "A sister-in-law is like a mother. Now that Tan'er's parents and brother are gone, it's only natural that I can intervene in her marriage. May I ask, General Song, is this right or wrong?"
Song Tingchen frowned instantly.
But he didn't say anything.
Just a slight "hmm".
It is true that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother.
Gu Mingzhu smiled and took a sip of tea.
She gently placed the teacup on the table.
"If General Song wanted to win Ah Tan back, he shouldn't just say a few words and let her live in your Song family without any status, right?"
Song Tingchen raised his eyes instantly, "Of course not."
He will remarry Su Tan.
As long as Su Tan is willing, she will still be the legitimate mistress of the Song family.
Gu Mingzhu was waiting for her to say this.
She smiled and looked at Song Tingchen, "Okay, I feel relieved with General Song's words. However, since General Song wants to marry a wife, he must show sincerity."
"In the past, Tan'er was willful and ignorant, and she didn't know the rules of etiquette. She never even asked you for any betrothal gifts. This is against the rules."
"After all, General Song is not marrying into the family."
Cui Wan was originally angry, but after hearing this, she immediately realized that Gu Mingzhu was cursing her in a roundabout way.
There wasn't a single swear word used, but the curse was really filthy.
She understood what Gu Mingzhu meant and immediately said with a bright smile, "Yes, we treated our Tan'er very unfairly back then."
"General Song wants to get married now, so he should really show his sincerity."
"Especially since General Song has lost both his parents now, it's difficult for him to be a parent."
Although Su Tan has lost both his parents, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.
The Su family's foundation is still there.
If Su Tan wants to use those connections, he may not be unable to do so.
Otherwise, the divorce between Su Tan and Song Tingchen would not have been so smooth.
It is one thing that the Song family agreed, but once the divorce documents are sent to the government, there will be many procedures to go through, and there will also be several waves of people coming to persuade them.
After all, what’s the old saying?
It is better to demolish ten temples than to ruin a marriage.
Sometimes it takes three to five months to send the divorce documents and go through the whole process back and forth.
But once Su Tan and Song Tingchen's divorce papers were delivered, she managed to escape within two days.
Naturally, this required the help of Duke Dingguo's former subordinates and the secret efforts of the rest of the Su family.
Although Su Tan and Song Tingchen both lost their parents.
But Su Tan and Song Tingchen are really different.
Cui Wan looked at Song Tingchen with a hint of sarcasm. "If General Song wants to marry our Tan'er, not to mention the betrothal gifts, you should also be compensated for how harshly you treated Tan'er before, right?"
"Oh, by the way, the feng shui of your Song family's house is not very good. You should at least buy a new house with three entrances and three exits as a wedding house."
"Besides, Tan'er is now the Princess of Jiayi County appointed by the Emperor, so the betrothal gift will naturally have to be doubled."
Having said this, Cui Wan had already laughed softly.
"I wonder if General Song's family still has enough money?"
"Oh, by the way, I heard that General Song spent a fortune on that girl surnamed Liu. The bracelet he bought for her cost tens of thousands of taels of silver."
"Then, when it comes to our Tan'er, there should be at least ten bracelets worth ten thousand taels, right?"
Cui Wan's eyes were filled with a hint of contempt. "I wonder if General Song has prepared the silver yet!"
"Okay, Wan."
Cui Wan plays the good guy here, and Gu Mingzhu plays the bad guy.
She called Cui Wan in a nonchalant tone, but looked at Song Tingchen with a gentle gaze, "Awan is young, and her words may not be pleasant to the ear. Please don't mind me, General."
"But what Awan said does make sense."
"Tan'er has suffered a lot of grievances in the past. Since General Song is willing to make amends, I think he will listen to every word Awan says."
"Since General Song is also interested, I would like to ask, is General Song's betrothal gift ready?"
Song Tingchen's expression suddenly tensed.
The hot steam from the tea blurred his expression at the moment.
"I will definitely not let Su Tan down. I just hope Madam Gu can give me some time."
The Song family suffered a huge change and their previous business plummeted.
He can afford the betrothal gift.
Just wanting to meet the requirements of Gu Mingzhu and Cui Wan is a fantasy.
Gu Mingzhu said nothing, but just laughed softly.
But this kind of laughter is more painful than a knife stabbing into the heart.
"General Song, what you said is really nice, but it's a pity that time waits for no one. What's the point of giving us time?"
"If A-Tan doesn't want to, then everything will be different."
Song Tingchen's face was tense. He pinched the teacup in his hand. Somehow, he remembered Liu Qingyin's previous curse and subconsciously said, "She won't refuse."
As soon as she finished speaking, Cui Wan couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"General Song is so confident. He really thinks our Ah Tan can't let go of this little ungrateful kid?"
As she was speaking, Cui Wan's treasure bag flashed.
She opened her brocade bag and found that Su Tan had used the sound transmission talisman.
After listening carefully, Cui Wan immediately stood up and looked at Song Tingchen deeply when she turned around.
"Song Tingchen, you and A Tan are no longer the same kind of people."
"The inner house will only hinder her progress."
"Whether it's you or Song Xiao, you're both stumbling blocks to her."
After saying that, Cui Wan left immediately and headed straight for Prince Chen's Mansion.
The situation is too urgent and we cannot delay for a moment.
When Cui Wan arrived at Prince Chen's mansion, Sui Sui immediately rushed over and hugged her legs: "Master, when will the fairy sister come back?"
She now speaks more fluently than before and no longer calls her master "Shihu".
Cui Wan patted Sui Sui's head and said, "I don't know yet. Right now, Master and your father have something important to discuss. Can Sui Sui go downstairs and play first?"
Sui Sui hesitated for a moment and quickly nodded.
"Okay~"
She left reluctantly.
Cui Wan didn't waste any more words and immediately reported the disaster in Yingzhou to Lu Zhiheng.
