Chapter 249: empty
Chapter 249 Empty
In the past few years, Cheng Wenmin's children have all started families one after another. Although the family has grown, there are fewer and fewer people who can accompany her.
Qi Heng is very old now, and he only cares about the government affairs of the court, so he is happy to have a leisurely time. Of course, the couple are very happy to have Zuo Ruchan by their side.
Yesterday, Zuo Ruchan went to play with Cheng Wenmin as usual, and they had a good chat, but suddenly burst into tears.
Cheng Wenmin was puzzled, and asked her if something happened. She hesitated at first, but later, under Cheng Wenmin's questioning, Zuo Ruchan finally told the whole story.
According to Zuo Ruchan, Zhong Ning has become a widow who does not obey women's morals. After her deceased husband left, not only did she not stay at home to be filial to her parents-in-law, but even contradicted her. The relationship with her husband's family was very bad.
In the end, Hongxing even cheated out of the affair, hooked up with Qi Xiao by some means, and even married him.
Now that Qi Xiao is back, she chased her to Xiliang and stayed in the Duke's Mansion. Her purpose is obvious.
Such a woman has nothing to do with the three obediences and four virtues, how could she become the mistress of the Duke's Mansion.
Qi Heng and Cheng Wenmin believed in Zuo Ruchan's words, so naturally they also thought of Zhong Ning as a woman who is easy going and scheming.
No, I followed the Zuo family brothers and sisters here early in the morning, trying to settle the marriage, and wake Qi Xiao up in time before he made a big mistake.
Unexpectedly, it was these two who were awakened in the end.
Listening to Qi Xiao's words, they are clear and reasonable, and they don't look like a person who has been dazed by women.
Thinking about it carefully, what Zuo Ruchan said cannot stand scrutiny. Regardless of whether the news she knows is true or not, Qi Xiao must not have told her, so how did she know? It is possible that she has planted an eyeliner in this mansion.
Qi Heng and Cheng Wenmin were also concerned about it, but they didn't doubt the truth of Zuo Ruchan's words at all.
However, how could they have thought that the girl they watched growing up has already used those shady tricks.
Thinking of this, Cheng Wenmin glanced at Zuo Ruchan, then at Qi Xiao, and sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, mother can't control your affairs."
When Zuo Ruchan heard what Cheng Wenmin said, his eyes widened immediately, his face was full of unwillingness.
"Aunt"
Zuo Rujing sensed that something was wrong, probably the old father-in-law and his wife had already reacted. He really didn't expect that Gu Sheng would really tear himself apart with them because of that widow.
After all, he has been away for a few years, and the help of the Zuo family must be indispensable if he wants to come back to power again, but now we are all talking about this, and it is useless to talk more.
He tugged at Zuo Ruchan and walked out, still saying flattering words on his face.
"Since it's a family matter, it's not easy for us brothers and sisters to interrupt, so let's leave first."
Qi Heng and Cheng Wenmin nodded and said nothing more.
After Zuo Ruchan went out, she looked reluctant.
"Let's just leave like this? Qi Xiao didn't even agree."
Zuo Rujing shook his head.
"I don't think it's going to work. Look at Qi Xiao's attitude, hey... Besides, my parents didn't agree with us taking the initiative to come to the Duke's mansion to look for it. Forget it."
Zuo Ruchan was dragged away reluctantly, and looked back at the gate of the Duke's Mansion reluctantly.
…
In the mansion, Qi Xiao briefly told his parents how he and Zhong Ning met. After hearing this, Qi Heng and Cheng Wenmin felt very complicated and were unable to speak for a while.
After a while, Cheng Wenmin said hesitantly. .
"Since everyone is here, why don't we meet first?"
Gu Sheng nodded after thinking about it.
"But she doesn't know my identity yet. I'll go in and tell her later."
Just like that, several people went to Zhong Ning's yard. Gu Sheng thought Zhong Ning would stay in the house as usual, but when he opened the door, he found that there was no one there.
