Song Yang nodded, stood up and followed Grandma Shun out.

On the way, Aunt Shun looked at the lost Song Yang, her eyes flickered slightly, she shook her head and said calmly, "Aunt Song, why do you think the eldest son brought that woman to the house?"

Song Yang didn't know, she just said casually, "Maybe Tianchen thinks she is pitiful, so..." She paused.

Aunt Shun smiled, "There are so many pitiful people in this world. I watched the eldest young master grow up, but I didn't see him bringing anyone back home just because he felt sorry for him!"

"Maybe……"

"No way!" Song Yang was interrupted by Aunt Shun before she could say anything.

"Aunt Song, please stay calm later. You must know that the old lady is willing to protect you, but even the eldest young master does not dare to touch you. Since you have become a member of the Su family, even if the eldest young master likes that woman,

There is only one way to die!" Aunt Shun said this with a solemn face.

"You want to kill her?!" Song Yang asked in surprise when she heard this.

Aunt Shun smiled and said, "The old lady may not bother to take action, but the eldest lady is not willing to settle the matter. She comes from the Duke of Dongling's Mansion, and has been the treasure held by the Duke of Dongling since she was a child. She is a noble daughter under the pampering of the Duke of Dongling.

How gentle and tolerant can you expect her to be? Don't look at her filial piety to the old lady, because she is her mother-in-law, and she doesn't have that much patience for others!"

"Then...then she wants to kill someone!" Song Yang simply couldn't understand it. Even if Tianchen fell in love with someone else, the worst he could do was to kick him out. It was just for...killing people!

"So what?" Aunt Shun's face remained unchanged, her eyes were as calm as water, she looked at Song Yang and smiled, "So, Aunt Song, you are so lucky to be recognized by the old lady!"

Song Yang suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Yes, maybe without the help and recognition of the old lady, she would have been eliminated by the eldest lady without her noticing.

"I will be filial to the old lady in the future!" Song Yang said.

Aunt Shun smiled, "Aunt Song, this is great!"

As she said that, she brought the topic back. "As my slave told you, no matter what happens later, you can't be impulsive. You have to know that arguing with a dying person is just a waste of words. Also, big

No matter you change your mind, Sir, you cannot make a fool of yourself just because of your impulse."

Song Yang lowered her head. Even though she was speaking for herself, she could always hear the contempt for her in Aunt Shun's words. Even if she didn't show it clearly, she really felt it because there were many people in this house.

Months, she had experienced this kind of words and this kind of look countless times.

"Aunt Shun, can you tell me where all the ladies are from?" Song Yang suddenly asked.

Aunt Shun said, "Aunt Song is asking why?"

Song Yang lowered her head and smiled slightly, her eyes a little tired, but not as bitter as her heart. She replied, "It's nothing, I just want to get to know the family. After all, no one has told me this before." Could it be that family background was different in ancient times?

Is it so important? Even if she gave everything she had, she could only be a concubine, just because of her so-called birth.

Aunt Shun said, "Well, I'll tell Aunt Song." She didn't simply think that the woman in front of her was just asking, but since she wanted to hear it, she just said it.

Then, Aunt Shun said, "The eldest madam, my servant just said that she was born in the Duke of Dongling's palace and is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Dongling. The second madam is the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Rites. She has a grandmother who was from the previous dynasty.

The princess is now the emperor's biological aunt. The third lady is the most noble in terms of status. She is the little princess of the Liang Palace and the emperor's cousin. The fourth lady is slightly inferior to the other ladies in terms of status, but she is also from a noble family. Even if she is not the legitimate daughter of the main family,

Her identity should not be underestimated, not to mention that she has a brother who is also a border guard general. The fifth lady is the granddaughter of the prime minister and the queen's cousin who has not yet graduated from the fifth uniform. The sixth lady is the niece of Qin Tianjian, and her father is also prominent in the court.

As for the grandchildren, the eldest son and the second son have a family, the second son is the consort, and his wife is the eighth princess of the dynasty, you know this."

Aunt Shun gave a brief introduction, and Song Yang smiled and said jokingly, "It seems that I am the least conspicuous among these people."

"But...I don't know something." Song Yang frowned.

Aunt Shun smiled knowingly and said, "Do you think the in-laws in the Hou family are so powerful and can conquer the master with their great achievements?"

Song Yang nodded, "Yes, but this is not what we should discuss." One of them is a concubine and the other is a slave. This is the government's affairs, and women in ancient times are not allowed to interfere.

"The reason why the Hou Mansion is not afraid of shocking the Lord with great achievements is because we have already done so. Now the Queen Mother is old and the Emperor is not young anymore. The old Lord Marquis and the old lady have long seen the future, and the Protector's Mansion has also

It’s not about immortality, it’s precisely because we have seen the future clearly that we need these in-laws, because with these in-laws, our Protector’s Mansion can survive for at least a few more years!” Aunt Shun said calmly.

"Is this the reason why the old lady disagrees with Tianchen continuing to be the heir apparent?" It was her background that made Tianchen lose his position as heir apparent.

Even if you don’t want to admit it, it’s true, isn’t it?

"It's not entirely like this. There are many reasons why the eldest son cannot be the heir. As a slave, I don't know what the old lady is thinking, but I also understand that she will not depose him just because of his affairs with you.

Probably, it’s the result of the combined effects of many aspects!” said Grandma Shun.

"Okay, let's not talk anymore. Let's leave quickly. I have to rush back to serve the old lady after I'm done." Aunt Shun ended the topic, and Song Yang wisely said nothing more.

They were walking in the corridor of the Hou Mansion. Every plant and tree here symbolized wealth. The carved beams and painted buildings were full of wealth. Song Yang suddenly sighed softly. She was like a nondescript ugly duckling that inexplicably broke into the Wutong where Phoenix lived.

The nest is average.

When they arrived at the courtyard where Song Yang lived, they walked in.

"Xiaoyang, you're back!" Su Tianchen happened to see her and smiled gently, because Aunt Shun was at the very back and did not see Aunt Shun behind her.

Song Yang smiled back, with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes, as if he was joking, he blinked and said, "Yeah, I heard you brought a beauty?"

Su Tianchen's eyes averted for just a second, but that second of hesitation stung Song Yang's heart. Sourness and doubts came to her heart together, with mixed feelings, but she didn't go up to make trouble now. The situation was unclear.

I still choose to trust him and don't want to regret because of my impulse.

"It's just a poor person who was rescued. It's not what you think. Xiaoyang, don't think too much." Su Tianchen came over and hugged her with warmth and attachment.

At this moment, Song Yang almost forgot the purpose of coming, but his somewhat cold embrace made her heart shiver, so cold that she felt disgusted by the smell of him. It was the smell of women's rouge and gouache, and it was so rich,

It lingered in her nose like a dead breath, as if she was suffocating to breathe!

Ha! She didn’t even say anything, so he decided that she was overthinking it?

But he didn't say it, and she wouldn't ask, why he smelled like a woman, or who the woman he brought was, or why he went to a place like Hualou.

She tried her best to persuade herself that the smell of powder on her body was because the smell of the woman's body was too strong, and he accidentally got it. He took that woman back home because he really felt pity for her, and it was just his kindness. As for going to the Flower House,

I heard that men here all discuss business in that kind of place!
