Chapter 51 The Young Master Protects Her
"I'm sorry, young master. Just now I was..."
"It's an emergency, I know."
Seeing that his face was still not very good, Gu Qingning whispered: "Young Master, Shen Ruoying knows that she feels guilty about the marriage exchange, so she took the initiative to make it difficult for you to make trouble with her again."
Lu Jingyu: "I never thought of causing trouble with her."
On the first day after he came back alive, Lu Jingyu was a little angry when he learned that his future fiancée had married his younger brother.
But that's all.
Just as he said, he never thought of her becoming a widow.
Just remarry.
But who would have thought that the other party would actually use the means in the backyard to plot against him like this... Lu Jingyu suddenly looked at Gu Qingning who was calm and composed.
"You have to deal with them all day long. It's hard work for you."
Gu Qingning was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook her head, "It's not hard, and they didn't take advantage of it. But young master, you should still check the matter of the spices. By the way, Aunt Chen knows all the relevant witnesses and evidence."
"good."
Looking at Lu Jingyu's back, Gu Qingning knew that the other party would be able to easily find out that both Feng and Shen Ruoying were involved.
Granny Liao whispered, "Master, this won't bring down Feng. At most, it will make the Duke dissatisfied with her. Moreover, it won't even bring any substantial trouble to the Second Young Master's wife. After all, she's still pregnant."
Gu Qingning: "It's enough to make the Duke hate Feng. As for Shen Ruoying, she regretted seeing the young master come back alive, and she has done so many vicious things. Lu Hangzhi likes her, but the love in his heart will eventually wear out."
Moreover, Gu Qingning saw that Shen Ruoying was not in a good condition just now.
There were a few times before when I cried wolf and pretended to have stomachaches, but there were also times when I really felt uncomfortable.
If Shen Ruoying continues to make trouble, the child may really not be able to be saved.
When Gu Qingning returned to Songtao Pavilion, he saw Chen Fenfang teasing little Mo Yu.
"Xiao Moyu, the young master also gave you a big red envelope, right? Auntie will help you save it and keep it for you to marry a wife in the future, okay?"
Mo Yu pursed her lips, holding a red envelope, and sat on the corridor.
When he saw Gu Qingning coming, his eyes suddenly lit up and he jumped over in two steps.
"Here, save it!" He stuffed the red envelope into Gu Qingning's hand.
Gu Qingning laughed dumbly, "Mo Yu, do you want me to save it for you so that you can marry a wife in the future?"
Mo Yu nodded, then his face turned red, he turned around and used his Qinggong skills to jump onto the roof.
Chen Fenfang said speechlessly, "This kid, I teased him for a long time, but he refused to give it to me. As soon as my wife came back, he gave it to me. Tsk tsk, it seems that little Mo Yu and you get along very well."
Gu Qingning also smiled gently and nodded, "Yes, I liked this child very much when I saw him. By the way, Aunt Chen, Lu Yun said that Mo Yu looked familiar, and he also knew that his whole family was gone. Have you told the young master about this?"
Chen Fenfang: "I have already told the young master."
Since the young master knew about this, Gu Qingning didn't say anything more and turned around and went back to the house.
As for Lu Jingyu, he quickly came to the conclusion.
After all, the witnesses and evidence are all there.
However, there is still a little doubt...
Su Ziyuan: "Young Master, the maid Tao Ye confessed that it was the Second Young Master's wife who used this incense to plot against the First Young Master's wife, but the Prince Consort and his cousin appeared there, so I'm afraid someone else did it on purpose."
Lu Jingyu's eyes were deep.
He had known for a long time that Gu Qingning had suffered a lot after marrying into the family, but he had never expected that she had almost been ruined several times?
Lu Jingyu had a feeling that she actually knew everything but just kept it to herself and handed all the evidence to him to deal with.
As for the two incidents that occurred in the mansion later, Shen Ruoying was the mastermind, but at the same time, stepmother Feng also condoned it.
Su Ziyuan said cautiously: "Master, you just came back, what are you going to do about this matter?"
Aside from the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet and matters related to the Prince Consort, all other matters are considered matters within the Duke's Mansion.
Lu Jingyu thought of Gu Qingning's cautiousness last night and his face was calm.
"Since they have done something wrong, they must pay the price."
When it was getting dark, Gu Qingning learned from the servants that Lu Jingyu had returned from outside and went to find Duke Qin.
She was stunned but remained calm and continued to do what she had to do.
But in fact, I was a little more curious about Lu Jingyu's decision.
How will he choose?
Duke Qin, who was sitting on the armchair at this time, stood up in shock after hearing his son's words.
"Jing Yu, is everything you said true?"
"The evidence is there, and now I'm suddenly glad that I didn't marry Shen Ruoying."
Duke Qin's expression was not very good.
If the incense incident was all done by Shen, then he had married a vicious woman to his second son!
Duke Qin's face grew darker when he thought of the vicious woman who had killed his grandson.
Duke Qin fell down on the armchair and held his forehead. "It's a misfortune for our family. It's really a misfortune for our family! Jing Yu, have you told anyone else about this?"
Lu Jingyu: "No, but Gu Shi actually knew about it, including what Fifth Brother did not long ago, which was instructed by Mother, and she also knew it. For the sake of our Duke's Mansion's reputation, she has been aggrieved and forbearing."
Duke Qin sighed, "That girl has indeed suffered a great injustice. As for Feng, I will punish her myself, but Shen is Hangzhi's wife, so he has to punish her himself. After all, the matter was not a big deal, and they did not succeed. Jingyu, go back and persuade Qingning. By the way, I promise to make up for the injustice Qingning has suffered."
Lu Jingyu looked at his father quietly.
Since childhood, my father has always been partial to Hangzhi. Every time Hangzhi made a mistake or Fengshi made a mistake, my father would ask for his forgiveness.
Of course, although his father was partial to Hangzhi, he was also nice to him.
But in today's incident, he has to protect Gu Qingning.
Lu Jingyu: "Father, I remember you praised Qing Ning before for her good housekeeping skills, and she has managed my business well in the past six months. Since mother is old and not in good spirits, let Qing Ning be the housekeeper from now on."
Duke Qin wanted to say that Feng was not very old and was a dozen years younger than him, but when he saw the determination in his eldest son's eyes, he finally gave in.
"Then let Qing Ning be the housekeeper. However, she is young after all. If there is anything she does not do right, let her ask Feng for instructions."
"Um."
"Jingyu, it's Chinese New Year, and Hangzhi has to accompany Shen back to her parents' home tomorrow, so let's wait until they come back."
Lu Jingyu nodded.
When he returned to Songtao Pavilion, he suddenly realized something.
Tomorrow is the second day of the Chinese New Year. As a son-in-law, does he also have to accompany Gu Qingning back to her parents' home?
At the same time, Granny Liao was helping Gu Qingning sort out the account books.
She reminded, "Miss, tomorrow is the second day of the Chinese New Year, which is the day when newly married ladies return to their parents' home. I heard that the one in Cuiwei Pavilion no longer has any stomachaches, and has started to prepare to return to her parents' home tomorrow. Are you going back too?"
