Chapter 90: Does the young lady have a daughter?
Ji Rong's face turned pale and her eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
Madam Yu also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and her expression froze slightly. She took Ji Rong's hand and comforted her, "But don't worry, Yao'er will definitely not be as confused as before after waking up this time. I think he is in trouble now, and only you will stay by his side without leaving him."
"The prostitute he had previously spent a fortune to redeem now only knows how to hide in the yard and do nothing. She has no idea how to take care of her husband. When asked, she claims that she is clumsy and can't do anything."
The prostitute that Yu Yao redeemed was called Wange.
Everyone in the mansion called her Aunt Wan.
Wangge is good at singing and dancing, and is extremely beautiful, but she is also extremely arrogant and domineering, and she is always trying to seduce Yu Yao.
She even coaxed Yu Yao into disrespecting Ji Rong, his legal wife, for her sake.
Fortunately, Ji Rong has a son to accompany her, which is some consolation.
It’s a pity that Ji Rong’s daughter unfortunately passed away two years ago.
Mrs. Yu also disliked the elegy.
If she wasn't afraid that her son would make trouble with her after waking up, she would have sold that little bitch Wange.
Ji Rong smiled bitterly twice, her eyes fell on her mother-in-law, and she forced a smile, "I don't ask my husband to focus all his attention on me, I just hope that my husband can pay more attention to Jing'er in the future."
Jing'er is her youngest son.
She was pregnant and gave birth to twins.
Unfortunately, the eldest daughter died young.
Fortunately, her youngest son has always been in good health and has grown up to be very cute. Everyone likes her son, except Yu Yao.
Mrs. Yu also remembered that her grandson was not favored by her youngest son, and she suddenly felt sorry for Ji Rong and couldn't help but comfort her.
Instead, Su Tan fixed his gaze on the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and said calmly, "Madam Yu, please put aside your matter with Madam Ji for now. I want to know if your Second Young Master has been to any strange places or seen any strange people recently."
She spoke rather tactfully.
Cui Wan just rolled her eyes.
She said indifferently, "If you want Yu Yao to die without a complete body, then just keep crying and complaining about these useless little things."
"Let me make this clear first. His soul is lost. If his soul is not found within three days, his body will begin to decay. Then you can prepare for his funeral."
Cui Wan's words were so rude that both Madam Yu and Ji Rong turned pale with fright.
Ji Rong stuttered for a moment, "But...but I really don't know where my husband has been."
She twisted her handkerchief helplessly and cast her eyes on her mother-in-law. "Mother, do you know where my husband has been lately?"
Madam Yu's face froze, and she immediately flung her handkerchief away. "I usually don't bother to care where this little bastard is going. If I really want to know his whereabouts, I'm afraid I'll have to ask that vixen."
Although Madam Yu refused to admit it, the reality was that she knew her son better than the concubine her son had just brought into the house.
Mrs. Yu felt a tightness in her chest when she thought about stepping into that vixen's yard today.
Ji Rong could only glance at Su Tan and Cui Wan with a pale face, and said with a wry smile, "Then please wait a moment, I'll ask someone to invite Aunt Wan over."
Cui Wan's hands were still on her chest, and she looked a little tired. "Can't we go over now? Going back and forth will waste time."
The expression on Ji Rong's face was bitter again. She lowered her head and even stood beside Madam Yu in a somewhat cowardly manner, with her eyes lowered and silent.
Madam Yu felt a little disappointed with Ji Rong. Ji Rong was good in every way. She was virtuous, gentle, and even gave birth to her eldest grandson. The only bad thing about her was that she was too weak and actually allowed her concubine to get ahead of her.
"Rong'er, I think you're just too easygoing! Right now, human lives are at stake, and yet she's still putting on airs, asking us to urge her and ask for her help? Let's go now. I want to see what that little whore is doing!"
His son, a good man, was led astray by that lowly little whore Wange.
Ji Rong couldn't stand up either.
If it were her, she would have sent Wange to death with a bowl of poison and a piece of white silk. How could she tolerate Wange's repeated and insolent behavior?
Ji Rong still looked timid and obeyed whatever her mother-in-law said.
"Since... since that's the case, then let's listen to mother. Let's go to Wan's sister's yard first. I just hope that Wan's sister won't be angry."
Madam Yu raised her eyebrows, "She dares?!"
"The entire official residence of the Minister of Personnel is not something a prostitute like her can call the shots. She wants to put on airs and show off without even considering her own limitations!"
Ji Rong just carefully tugged at Mrs. Yu's sleeve, telling her not to be angry.
Finally, she turned to Cui Wan and Su Tan and said, "I'm so sorry, my sister Wan is not very sensible and made you two laugh at me."
Cui Wan lazily held the whip in her hand and yawned slightly sleepily. "Whether you understand or not, it doesn't count now. Let's talk about it after we meet the person."
Su Tan's gaze circled around Ji Rong's face.
Suddenly he asked, "Did the young lady have a daughter?"
Ji Rong was stunned for a moment, then nodded, tears welling up in her eyes, and her eye sockets instantly turned red. "Yes, my poor eldest daughter has been in poor health since she was born. She left me and passed away two years ago. I dream about her every day."
Mrs. Yu also sighed repeatedly.
In fact, before this, although her son was absurd, he had not been as absurd as he is now.
It was after her granddaughter passed away that her son started to become more and more aggressive, doing things that embarrassed Ji Rong.
She frowned and said, "Since you two masters are here to exorcise the evil spirit for my son, please don't interfere in irrelevant matters. This is still our Shangshu Mansion's family affair. If you mention it, it will make my daughter-in-law sad. It's better not to mention it."
Cui Wan and Su Tan looked at each other.
The two of them said nothing more, but changed the subject, "Then please ask Madam Yu to lead the way. We are going to take a look at Aunt Wan's courtyard now."
What happened just now seemed to be just a very small episode.
However, Ji Rong's gaze frequently swept over Su Tan, her eyes still misty and misty, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Walking all the way to Wange's yard, the maids in the yard didn't seem to show much respect to Madam Yu and Ji Rong. They just bowed and looked indifferent, as if they were too lazy to curry favor with Madam Yu and Ji Rong.
"Where's your aunt? Why hasn't she come out yet?"
Mrs. Yu looked displeased. She, Ji Rong, and the two distinguished guests from the mansion were coming over and they had someone inform them in advance and asked someone to prepare the funeral rites.
How come they are all here, but Wangge is still nowhere to be seen?
The maid bowed, glanced at the closed door, and said indifferently, "The concubine is putting on her makeup inside. If the Madam and the Young Madam want to see her, I'm afraid they'll have to wait."
During the day of Elegy, at least two hours are spent on putting on makeup and dressing up.
No one had ever seen her without her makeup.
It is said that it was because Yu Yao praised her for being beautiful with makeup on, saying that she was stunningly beautiful and that even princesses and concubines could not compare to her in one ten-thousandth place.
Therefore, Elegy appears in public every day with extremely delicate and gorgeous makeup.
On the day she paid her respects to Ji Rong, she was two hours late. Ji Rong made excuses for her and asked her if she had caught a cold and was not feeling well, which was why she was late.
Who knew that Wange would just sneer and say that she was putting on makeup.
He didn't take the young lady Ji Rong seriously at all.
But today, she doesn't even take Madam Yu seriously.
Even when Mrs. Yu came to her yard, she had to wait for her to put on makeup!
"presumptuous!"
Madam Yu's face turned pale. "You lowly little whore, you dare to put on airs in front of me!"
"Tell her to get out right now!"
The maid moved her lips but did not move her body.
Mrs. Yu was about to get angry when the tightly closed door suddenly opened from the inside.
"Huh? What's all the noise?"
"It's making my ears hurt~"
