Chapter 1249 The Widow Queen
Rong Huilan still didn't know what happened in Rong Bo's house yesterday, but she was not a fool, so she could see Rong Xinlan's admiration for her husband, Jinchen Beile.
However, Rong Huilan was not worried at all. Apart from other things, from the attitude of Jinchen Beile not mentioning her sister after returning, it was known that Rong Xinlan was not in Jinchen Beile's eyes at all. Rong Huilan smiled and continued to take care of her own affairs.
Who knew that this morning, Rong Huilan got the news from the doorman that her third aunt was here.
Knowing that although this third aunt was not very close to her on weekdays, she was not the kind of person who would come to visit for no reason, Rong Huilan still asked someone to invite Rong San Madam into the main hall, and then she packed up herself, and then went to see Rong San Madam with a series of maids behind her.
Mrs. Rong San didn't feel strange at all. After seeing Rong Huilan, she took her hand with tears on her face and said, "Huilan, something happened in our house! Your mother didn't want me to come to you, saying that you are a married lady, but now, in the whole family, I'm afraid you are the only one who can save our family!" Hearing Mrs. Rong San's serious words, Rong Huilan's face changed. She immediately pulled Mrs. Rong San to sit down, and then said soothingly, "Don't cry, Aunt San, tell me first, what happened at home?" Jinchen Beile, who happened to walk in outside, raised his eyebrows when he heard Rong Huilan addressing the Rong family. The servant beside him trembled with fear, and at the same time, he was full of trepidation. He didn't know if he dared to inform the inside first, so that the new wife would know that Beile had come. However, the next second, the servant saw Prince Jinchen raised his arm, and understood that this meant that he was told not to talk too much, so the servant bowed his head and prayed for Rong Huilan, hoping that the new lady would not say anything nonsense. The prince he served was far from being as elegant as the rumors outside.
Fortunately, Mrs. Rong San quickly took over the conversation and did not let Rong Huilan express her attachment to the Rong Bo Mansion.
"You don't know, Rong Xinlan is crazy, and the whole family of the first house is crazy. Yesterday, the old lady called all of us in the main hall to discuss sending Rong Xinlan away. As a result, before the family came, the old lady's maid was beaten with a stick, and she hasn't sent her back yet.
When the family arrived, they were even more arrogant, saying that they were the real masters of Rong Bo's Mansion. Not only did they make the old lady angry, but they also humiliated your parents and my family to death! Not only did they want to divide the family, they also wanted to stop the household. We refused, so when we sent the old lady back to her room to rest, the family smashed the door of the accounting office and took all the account books and cards. , the indentures of the servants were all stolen.
That’s not all. That family went even further. They rushed directly into your parents’ yard, drove them away, and moved in. Now, your parents and your brother live in the cramped yard where that family lived before. They are living a miserable life. Even so, your mother is worried that your foundation in this mansion is not stable, so she didn’t come to tell you. But they are your parents after all, how can you bear it? Huilan, you can’t just ignore it! "
Rong Huilan’s face turned cold when the third lady was halfway through her words, and her face turned ashen when she heard that the second house’s family was occupied by the first house.
However, even though she was furious and wanted to go back immediately to teach Master Rong’s family a lesson, Rong Huilan was still clear-headed in her mind.
The words that the Third Lady said afterwards were indeed a wall in Rong Huilan's heart. Since she married into the Beile Mansion, although she seemed to be in harmony with the couple of Jinchen Beile, her control over the Beile Mansion was still sporadic. At this moment, she wanted to support her family, not that she couldn't, but she was not as powerful as Jinchen Beile personally.
With this in mind, just when Rong Huilan was thinking about how to get Jinchen Beile to help her, the Third Lady misunderstood more from Rong Huilan's expression.
She was furious, fearing that Rong Huilan would not go back to help, so she spoke with some force: "I say Huilan, this matter was originally caused by you. If your mother had not felt that Rong Xinlan coveted her son-in-law, she would never have poked the old lady to send her away immediately. Now, the old lady and your mother are almost sick because of this matter. If you really don't care about this matter, you are too conscienceless!"
When the third lady said this, Jinchen Beile outside raised his eyebrows together with Rong Huilan inside. However, the content of their actions was different.
Rong Xinlan? Coveting him?
Jinchen Beile thought carefully, but he could only think of a girl who he accidentally met when he was in a hurry before. He couldn't remember much else. He didn't even remember the girl's appearance.
Hearing this, he understood that the third wife of Rong was here only for some trivial matters at home. While Jinchen Beile was mocking the fact that only the second branch of the Rong family was still slightly worthy of attention, he had no intention of continuing to listen.
His new wife was a smart woman with some brains, but it was a pity that the people in this family were not worthy of her.
To Jinchen Beile, the matter of the Rong family was not a big deal at all. Originally, the first branch of the Rong family had been awarded the title, and it was normal for them to be in charge of the household and occupy the main courtyard. However, if his new wife asked for help, he could help and get the title to his father-in-law.
Thinking like this, Prince Jinchen left quietly just like when he came, and the people inside had no idea that he had been here.
Rong Huilan was very dissatisfied with what the Third Madam said, but after all, Rong Huilan was raised by the Second Madam, and her temperament was not comparable to that of the Third Madam, a daughter of a general. She forced herself to suppress her unhappiness and continued to comfort the Third Madam: "Third Aunt, what you said really chilled my heart. I'm just trying to find a way."
When the Third Madam heard this, she immediately smiled happily and slapped her thigh at the same time: "Hey! I said that my niece Huilan will never have the same character as Rong Xinlan, so don't think too much. With your current status, as long as you go back to the mansion and say a few words to her family, and then use the reputation of Prince Jinchen to intimidate them, I think that family will be honest."
In the final analysis, even though she saw the style of the Rong family tearing their faces yesterday, the Third Madam Rong still looked at the Rong family with a contemptuous attitude in her heart.
