Si Ning walked over with Li Xutang and Lu Qingling to pay his respects to Mrs. Jing'an Hou.
As soon as Mrs. Jing'an Hou saw Si Ning, she put a smile on her face and hurriedly asked her to get up.
"Come here and introduce me to you."
Si Ning responded with a smile, but before he could take a step forward, Li Xutang pulled Lu Qingling to the front of Mrs. Jing'an Hou first.
"Mrs. Luo, you are fine."
Madam Marquis Jing'an looked calm, and Li Xutang saluted the lady sitting next to her as if she hadn't seen her.
"Princess, Wan'an!"
Sitting next to Mrs. Jing'an Hou is the current Holy Emperor's biological sister and Qin Yi's biological mother, the eldest princess of the court.
Mrs. Jing'an Hou saw this and reluctantly introduced Li Xutang.
"Elder Princess, this is the second wife of the Ning'an Marquis Mansion..."
Li Xutang smiled and saluted again, and pulled Lu Qingling who was standing aside dumbly.
Lu Qingling obediently stepped forward and introduced herself in a low voice.
"The civilian girl Lu Qingling has met the eldest princess, and the eldest princess is Wan'an."
The eldest princess looked at the two of them with no expression, and responded with a slight hum.
Mrs. Jing'an Hou's face was full of displeasure. After all, Ning'an Hou's house was not considered a small family, so how could she have such a worthless daughter-in-law.
He passed the two people and waved towards Si Ning.
Only then did Si Ning step forward and said, "Si Ning, a civilian woman, would like to pay her respects to the eldest princess."
"Keep your head up."
The eldest princess, who had been silent until now, stared straight at Si Ning and suddenly spoke.
Si Ning raised his head. The eldest princess looked at him without saying anything, her expression vague and unclear.
Madam Marquis Jing'an on the side felt excited when she saw this. She didn't understand what the eldest princess meant, and she always felt that there was something wrong with that glance just now.
Li Xutang and Lu Qingling also speculated in their minds. Could it be that Si Ning had won the favor of the eldest princess?
If this is the case, it will be even harder to get rid of Si Ning in the future!
When the other ladies and ladies saw this scene, they also had different thoughts. They all looked at Si Ning, but they had no intention of coming forward to talk immediately.
Seeing that the eldest princess was still silent, Mrs. Jing'an Marquis stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Aning, go and play there quickly. You are young and can play with those ladies."
Si Ning smiled gratefully at Madam Jing'an Hou and walked towards the other end of the pavilion.
Seeing her coming, the ladies became even more curious, and some of the bolder ones raised their voices and asked.
"Are you General Lu's bride?"
The words "happy bride" sound particularly harsh, but this is the fact.
She nodded lightly, and the man became even more curious.
"Then you will be happy every day after marrying General Lu?"
Si Ning, "???"
She is happy every day, that guy can surprise her every day!
She nodded lightly again. Seeing that she was silent, the man found it boring and stopped asking any more questions.
She didn't ask, but others had no intention of letting Si Ning go.
"Look at how happy she looks. She doesn't know how to curse Brother Lu in her heart. She looks forward to leaving as soon as possible so that she can be intimate with others."
Moran, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion, did not shy away from making sarcastic remarks.
Although she was talking to others, she did not lower her voice deliberately.
Si Ning looked towards her and saw Sun Moran's eyes full of hostility.
Si Ning didn't understand. She and this young lady had never met before, so how could such hatred come from.
However, she had no intention of paying attention to her. After all, Mrs. Jing'an Hou was hosting a banquet, so she still had to give her the face she deserved.
She got up and walked into the garden with Qiu Ju. As soon as her front feet left, everyone started talking.
"How can she bear it when Miss Sun talks about her like that? I wonder if she has a softer temper?"
"Why are you so soft? I think you have a guilty conscience."
Sun Moran bit his lower lip and glared fiercely at Si Ning's back.
After hearing the report from the servant who followed Qin Yi, Qin Yi stayed with this woman in the teahouse for a cup of tea and even called the doctor.
She called the doctor who was treating her to ask questions. The doctor vividly talked about how much Qin Yi treasured Si Ning, which made Sun Moran anxious at that time.
She and Qin Yi grew up together, and their elders also approved of their marriage. She was destined to marry Qin Yi.
But Qin Yi has always been lukewarm to her, but he greets a person who is about to become a widow?
How could she endure this!
She felt that Si Ning must have used some foxy trick to seduce her brother Yi and make her brother Yi fascinated.
Lu Qingling on the side saw everything, stepped forward, and whispered to Sun Moran.
"Sister Sun, don't be angry. My aunt is like that. She is always so rude to my grandmother. If my aunt did something wrong, I will apologize on behalf of her and my sister."
Sun Moran frowned and looked at the person in front of him with a sneer in his eyes.
"and who are you?"
As the most favored young lady in the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, Madam Lu has tried every means to let Lu Qingling integrate into the circle of noble ladies in the capital, but the threshold of the Lu family is too low.
If it weren't for Si Ning's help this time, Lu Qingling wouldn't have been able to get to know these people.
"The civilian daughter Lu Qingling, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Ning'an Mansion, has met Miss Sun."
"My daughter, isn't your daughter married?"
Lu Qingling's face turned pale and she replied angrily.
"Back to Miss Sun, that is Minnu's eldest sister, she is my uncle..."
"Okay, no one wants to hear about those things about your family..." Sun Moran interrupted her and asked impatiently, "What did you mean when you just said that Si Ning has no respect for his elders?"
Lu Qingling naturally sensed Sun Moran's hostility towards Si Ning. Although she didn't know why, she vaguely felt that Sun Moran might be able to make friends with her.
In a low voice, she recounted the recent events in the house, including the fact that Si Ning's adulterer was caught secretly and was almost exonerated.
She spoke vividly, and Sun Moran's face grew colder.
"She is so shameless and openly hooks up with other men?"
The ladies around him all looked at Sun Moran immediately, and when they heard this, they greeted him coldly.
"I just looked at her and felt a little irritated. It turns out that I guessed it right. General Lu is also unlucky. Why did he marry such a thing?"
Sun Moran said with a cold face, "Brother Lu is indeed very unlucky."
Lu Qingling has been observing Sun Moran from the side, trying to pry out something from her words and deeds.
Just as she was plotting against Sun Moran in her mind, she saw everyone looking at her.
He raised his eyes with fear and asked at a loss.
"What happened?"
Sun Moran's face was full of disdain, "Why are you slandering her so much? She blocked your good deeds. Do you like Brother Lu?"
Lu Qingling's face was horrified and she was so frightened that she could not speak coherently.
"The third uncle is my uncle, how could I..."
"Oh, where are you going to talk about these lowly people's affairs? But I also understand what you mean. You want to use my hand to get rid of that bitch, right?"
