Chapter 128 How did Mr. Xu San discover the birthmark?
Xie Yunqing was anxious to see Shen Ning, so he went straight to Yongping Lane after entering Pingning, but Shen Ning's place was not big enough and there was no place to accommodate them.
In addition, there was a young lady from the Xu family, Xu Wanqing, in Xie Yunqing's group. Xu Wanqing was good friends with Shen Nian, and when she heard that they were coming to Xinzhou, she followed them willingly.
Xu Mao, the eldest uncle of the Xu family, is a rather strict person, but knowing that his younger brother is now in Xinzhou, he agreed to his willful daughter's request to go out for a trip.
In this case, it would be impossible to accommodate Xie Yunqing and the other three with Shen Ning, not to mention the guards and servants.
Xu Zhiyi now lives in the Xu family in Pingning, so he moved his cousin Xie Yunqing and niece Xu Wanqing into the Xu family.
The Xu family's large compound can naturally accommodate so many people.
When Xu Ying learned that the person living in her house was actually the granddaughter of Lord Xu, she was overjoyed. She changed her clothes and dressed up before going to try to establish a relationship with him.
After meeting Xu Wanqing, Xu Ying instantly became more yearning for the capital.
Although they both have the surname Xu, Xu Ying is envious of Xu Wanqing's luxurious dress of fine texture and the gorgeous yet not gaudy jewelry on her head.
Compared with Xu Wanqing, her clothes, which were no longer fashionable in the capital, and her luxurious yet somewhat tacky jewelry made her look like a country bumpkin.
Xu Ying is one year younger than Xu Wanqing. Now seeing the dignity of Xu Wanqing, the daughter of the cabinet minister, she put aside all her airs and temper, calling her "sister" affectionately, and put herself in a very humble manner, flattering the spoiled Xu Wanqing very appropriately, and also calling her "sister" all the time.
But then Xu Ying learned from Xu Wanqing the reason why she came to Pingning: it was because of Chen Ning!
What made Xu Ying even more unacceptable was that the lowly widow had not only suddenly transformed herself into a county lady, but was also the legitimate daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and was a relative of the Xu family in the capital.
How will she take revenge in the future?
Xu Ying was so shocked that she couldn't even keep the smile on her face. Across from her, Xu Wanqing looked puzzled: "Sister Ying, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like that?"
Xu Ying suddenly came back to her senses, and in a flash, an idea suddenly came to her mind.
She showed a somewhat embarrassed smile and said hesitantly: "I, I was just too surprised. That Chen Xiangjun... turned out to call Master Xu Uncle."
Xu Wanqing nodded subconsciously: "Although my third uncle is young, his seniority is there."
Before she finished speaking, Xu Wanqing suddenly realized something and looked at Xu Ying with a frown: "What do you mean by that? Why do I feel like you want to say something?"
Xu Ying looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated: "I, I don't know if I dare to say it."
Xu Wanqing raised her eyebrows. "What's there to be afraid of? Just speak up. We're the only two sisters here. What do you have to be afraid of?"
Xu Ying pursed her lips, then said cautiously: "But a while ago, Chen Ning and Mr. Xu were very close... She even entered Mr. Xu's room several times while he was bathing. This..."
As she spoke, she pretended to be panicked and said, "But at that time, I guess they didn't know she was Miss Shen. However, many people in the mansion knew about this, and I was worried that someone would gossip about it later."
Before Xu Ying finished speaking, Xu Wanqing's expression changed: "She hooked up with my third uncle?"
She stood up quickly, her face suddenly turning pale: "Are you sure?"
Xu Ying looked embarrassed and uneasy.
Xu Wanqing suddenly remembered something, turned around and ran away, all the way to Shen Nian's residence.
Shen Nian had just finished feeding Xie Yunqing the medicine soup, and when she came out, she saw Xu Wanqing rushing over. She was immediately puzzled: "Sister, is there something wrong? Why are you so anxious?"
Xu Wanqing reached out and pulled Shen Nian aside, lowering her voice and asking her, “Do you know how my third uncle discovered your sister?”
Shen Nian was stunned for a moment, then said, “My mother seemed to say it was because of the birthmark.”
Xu Wanqing's expression changed drastically: "What birthmark is that? Where is it?"
Shen Nian seemed to have thought of something, her expression suddenly became very uneasy, and she even stuttered when she spoke: "My sister's birthmark is on her chest..."
At that word, Xu Wanqing's face turned dark. She gritted her teeth and said, "Chest! How could a man see a woman's chest? Nian Nian, think about it, what would that be like?"
Shen Nian seemed to be frightened as well, speechless and not knowing what to do.
Xu Wanqing snorted coldly, "I heard from Xu Ying that your good sister, who grew up in the countryside, used to be very attentive to my Third Uncle. She even shamelessly entered my Third Uncle's room while he was bathing... Seeing the birthmark on his chest, Nian Nian, what kind of situation was that?"
Shen Nian was speechless.
Xu Wanqing gritted her teeth and said, "I heard that your sister has already married and become a widow. As a widow, she didn't think about being loyal and faithful, and actually did such a shameless thing. If she returns to Beijing in the future, won't she bring shame to your Shen family?"
Xu Wanqing was going crazy: "My third uncle is her uncle. If this matter gets out, then Shen Ning will have no shame, but how will my third uncle live?"
Shen Nian was obviously frightened, but she still hesitated to explain: "At that time, my sister didn't know the relationship between the Third Master and her. She, she was alone, so even if she had a crush on a man...it was understandable..."
"Don't be silly, Nian Nian!"
Xu Wanqing gritted her teeth and said, "One glimpse reveals her true appearance. You are a talented young lady from the capital, and if you were to have such a frivolous, lewd and lowly sister, how would you cope with the future?"
Thinking of something, Xu Wanqing continued: "Have you forgotten that the one who was engaged to your cousin Xie Lianyu was supposed to be Chen Ning...If she is recognized back, what will happen if your mother wants your brother Lianyu to marry Chen Ning?"
Shen Nian was completely bewildered: "I, I, I don't know either."
"If you don't know, just listen to me."
Xu Wanqing made a quick decision: "We can't let your mother take her back to Beijing."
Shen Nian suddenly became anxious: “That won’t work, my mother finally found my sister, she can’t not take my sister back.”
Xu Wanqing was angry at her for not fighting back: "What are you afraid of? Everything depends on human effort."
Xu Wanqing waved her hand: "You are timid. I won't talk to you anymore. I will go find your brother."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked out quickly. Shen Nian chased her for several steps but couldn't catch up. For a while, she paced in panic, not knowing what to do...
