Because of Qiu Tianyun's kneeling, and with Wang Mengyun's instigation, more and more people spread rumors that Yang Cui and Cen Xiao were indifferent, and Yuan Qiu and An Xiaohu got into several fights because of their anger.
"Godmother, are we just going to let everyone continue to misunderstand like this?"
"This is an adult matter. You children shouldn't worry about it so much. Be careful not to become a shorty and never be able to get a wife."
Seeing that Yang Cui was still in the mood to joke, Yuan Qiu frowned even more: "At a time like this, you are still in the mood to joke."
"Alright, old man, your uncle and I know what we're doing. Don't worry, it won't be spread tomorrow."
Yang Cui and Cen Xiao had no way to explain anything. It wasn't that Yang Cui was soft-hearted, but rather that Cen Xiao's reputation was too good for his position, which wasn't necessarily a good thing.
Of course, more importantly, Yang Cui and Cen Xiao had a more direct way to shut them up...

The Yongchang Earl's Mansion.
Wang Mengyun felt she had gotten revenge on Yang Cui and was secretly pleased with herself.
Just then, a young maid rushed in and reported, "Madam, something terrible has happened..."
"Slap!" Wang Mengyun's head maid, Ziyu, slapped her across the face. "Can't you speak properly? Madam is perfectly fine, what's wrong with her? Madam is pregnant with the young master, so you all need to watch your words and actions!"
The maidservant hurriedly knelt down: "This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die."
Wang Mengyun said impatiently, "Alright, alright, hurry up and tell me, what is it?"
"Yes...it is that the master brought back four concubines, all of whom are top courtesans at the brothel."
Wang Mengyun jumped up: "What did you say?"
"Madam, please don't get agitated, be careful not to upset the baby." Ziyu stepped forward to support her, fearing that something might happen to Wang Mengyun.
At this moment, Gu Minghua walked gracefully in with four beauties of different styles.
"Yuyin, Leqi, Yunshu, Hua'er, come and pay your respects to Madam."
After Gu Minghua finished speaking, the four beauties said in unison, "This concubine greets Madam."
"Master, what do you mean by this?" Wang Mengyun asked, barely suppressing her anger.
"What do you mean? From now on, they will be my people, the concubines in the mansion. You are the mistress of the house, so I brought them here to pay my respects."
Gu Minghua was very displeased with Wang Mengyun's tone, especially after hearing that she had targeted Yang Cui at the entrance of the General's Mansion yesterday.
She's so concerned about other people's business. So many onlookers, why doesn't anyone else stand up for Qiu Mingxuan? Why does she have to be the one to stick her neck out? Who knows if it's because of Lin Shikang?
Yunshu, on the verge of tears, said, "Master, is Madam unhappy? Perhaps... perhaps Yunshu should return to Yanyu Tower."
Wang Mengyun angrily rebuked, "You lowly hussy, do you even have the right to speak here?"
Hua'er said sweetly, "Is Madam angry and doesn't want us to enter the manor?"
"How could that be? Madam is the most magnanimous. Which man doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Don't you agree, Madam?"
Upon hearing Yu Yin's words, Wang Mengyun's eyes widened in horror: "You...you are Yang Cui's people!"
These were the words she had said to Yang Cui yesterday. Today, these four women not only entered the house, but also repeated those words verbatim to her. This was definitely Yang Cui's revenge!
That bitch said she'd stuff someone into Gu Minghua's hands, and she actually did!
Wang Mengyun was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.
"How could I be Madam Cen's woman? Madam is truly bewitched. I am Master's woman." Hua'er leaned weakly against Gu Minghua, her sweet voice making Gu Minghua's bones melt.
Gu Minghua said to Wang Mengyun in an annoyed tone, "Alright, you should take good care of your pregnancy and stop worrying about other people's business all day long. I'll take them to settle in and won't be coming over tonight."
Countless men in Kyoto long to have the company of these four sisters, yet none of them have the chance. Even Chen Shaoyun, who claims that "all the beauties in the world are my soulmates," has not had this opportunity. Gu Minghua is the first person to have had this chance so far.
So of course, I had to have a "candlelit talk" with the beauties.
Does it matter who sent it?
...
The next day, news that Gu Minghua had taken the two most popular sisters from the Misty Rain Pavilion into his harem spread throughout the entire capital...
"It seems that Wang Mengyun said that it was perfectly normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, and advised Yang to be more magnanimous, so Yang sent four women to Gu Minghua."
"This Yang family member's move was truly precise and ruthless; the slap in the face was quite something..."
"Those four women are the most sought-after courtesans in the capital. They are outstanding in looks, figure, and charm. They have bewitched countless men. The Yongchang Marquis's mansion is going to be quite lively now..."
