Chapter 77: Madam Song performs a big show
Song Tingchen spent a long time alone looking at Haitangju, where Su Tan once lived.
It was already late at night, and his shoulders were covered with a thick layer of frost and snow. The wind blew over him, causing pain on his cheeks and gradually waking him up.
He took a deep look at the long-sealed gate of Haitangju, then turned around and left without any reluctance.
His relationship with Su Tan ended three years ago.
Now, he will marry Qingyin.
I think Su Tan will find her ideal husband again.
only……
Song Tingchen's brows were serious, but just like his mother, he began to look forward to the arrival of Old Lady Chen's birthday party.
He also wanted to know how Su Tan would react if he knew that he was going to get married.
…
The next day.
On the day of Old Lady Chen's birthday banquet, Old Lady Song came to visit early with Liu Qingyin.
The people in Jian'an Marquis Mansion are a little strange.
You have to know that for all these years, Old Madam Song has never set foot in the Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion.
This time, sending a letter to the Zhenbei General's Mansion was just a superficial effort.
After all, Old Madam Song could indulge herself as she pleased, but Marquis Jian'an always had to consider the friendship between his colleagues, so for the sake of courtesy, the invitation was finally sent to the General Zhenbei's Mansion.
I thought that Madam Song would pretend not to see it as she did before.
She came quickly today.
He even had a girl with a distinctive appearance by his side.
There was no need for anyone to introduce her; the people in Jian'an Marquis' Mansion knew who she was.
Who else could it be except Liu Qingyin, who has been with Song Tingchen for so many years but has no official status.
As soon as Old Madam Song sat down, she began to search for Su Tan in the crowd.
She looked forward to seeing Su Tan but never did. Old Madam Song became a little anxious.
Perhaps her searching gaze was too obvious, causing the people around her to frown frequently, and finally couldn't help asking, "Madam Song, who are you looking for?"
Old Madam Song rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"Looking for that cruel and short-lived former daughter-in-law who nearly pissed me off to death!"
She was right in saying everything. Wasn't Su Tan almost mad at her to death?
Su Tan was indeed a cruel and short-lived person. She thought that Su Tan would not live past the age of thirty!
As soon as she finished speaking, the people next to her quietly moved away from her.
Old Madam Song didn't feel that she had done anything wrong at all, and didn't even notice the strange looks from the people around her. She began to describe in vivid detail how cruel Su Tan was, not only abandoning her husband and children, but also asking for all the dowry back after the divorce.
this……
This made the person next to him frown even deeper.
Someone lowered their head and whispered, "After the divorce, returning the dowry to the former daughter-in-law, isn't that the right thing to do? Why is Old Madam Song still feeling aggrieved?"
A round-faced lady glanced over here, then suppressed the disdain in her eyes and said nonchalantly, "Who knows?"
"Perhaps it's because Old Madam Song grew up in a different environment than us, so the rules are also very different."
"Anyway, we've never heard of anyone taking over their ex-daughter-in-law's dowry after a divorce."
"Even if His Royal Highness Prince Yu divorces, he has to return the dowry to Miss Shen. Does Old Madam Song think that Song Tingchen is more noble than His Royal Highness Prince Yu?"
I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Yu has been suffering from some strange disease recently and has started to stay at home.
Oh, although he couldn't go out without the emperor's permission.
The fact that he favored his wife and then killed her made the emperor very angry, and he is still under house arrest.
Then there is him and Zhao Yu - this is a royal secret and cannot be discussed in detail, but everyone has a general idea of it.
His Royal Highness Prince Yu is now deposed.
From now on, anyone in the capital who dares to stand on Prince Yu’s side will be blind.
"Perhaps, that's what Old Madam Song thinks. If I were to ask you, the Princess Jiayi has a really good temper. She actually managed to get along with such a mother-in-law for five years."
This statement was highly agreed by everyone.
Someone even whispered, "If my daughter's fiancé had a mother like this, I would cancel the marriage even if it meant being ridiculed by the whole world."
"Who says it's not true? With a mother-in-law like this, how can a girl's life be easy after she gets married?"
As they were talking, Lady Jiayi, Su Tan, who was at the center of the topic, came over with Old Lady Chen.
In front of everyone, Old Lady Chen and Marquis Jian'an solemnly thanked Su Tan.
If it weren't for Su Tan, the entire Jian'an Marquis Mansion would probably have been in trouble.
These words are apparently a thank you.
But everyone is smart, how could they not understand that Old Lady Chen and the people from the Jian'an Marquis Mansion are supporting County Lady Jiayi.
Ever since the Su family members died on the battlefield, many people have taken advantage of their misfortune.
Marquis Jian'an and Old Lady Chen clearly meant that anyone who dared to bully Su Tan or make things difficult for the Su family would be in trouble with their Marquis Jian'an Mansion.
Immediately, everyone put on a smiling face and said that Su Tan was worthy of being the Princess Jiayi appointed by the emperor.
He also said that the people of the capital were saved from disaster thanks to Su Tan who eliminated the harmful water ghost.
All in all, there was endless praise.
Old Madam Song felt uncomfortable after hearing this.
At this moment, she suddenly stood up.
He also took Liu Qingyin's hand.
"Oh, it's great that you all came."
"Today is Old Lady Chen's seventieth birthday. This is a happy event, but I'd like to take this opportunity to announce another happy event to you all."
"Our family Chen is engaged to Qingyin."
Old Madam Song had a smile on her face, and that smile was filled with satisfaction.
He almost praised Liu Qingyin to the highest point in the world.
"I've been attracted to Qingyin for a long time. We weren't meant to be together before, but now we've finally been able to get married. Our family is truly blessed. A girl as good as Qingyin is hard to come by!"
Liu Qingyin looked a little shy.
Old Madam Song was even more delighted.
"Oh, the little girl is shy. She gets shy after just a few words."
