After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home

Chapter 117 We Agree

"Are you sure?" Xu Cheng asked in a deep voice.

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then responded and said, "Yes, Wu Hen went to confirm it personally. And when I saw Su Qing in Baojintang that day, she was no longer wearing a maid's clothes. I was puzzled at the time."

"It seems that this incident should have happened at about the same time as the Fourth Young Lady's incident."

Zhou Yingrong suddenly realized and said, "Now that you mention it, I remember, is she the girl who helped the fourth young lady out on the day of Master Yue's wedding?"

Seeing the two men's puzzled expressions, Zhou Yingrong clapped her hands and said, "It must be her. That day, Xie Fen went to the wedding banquet with a big belly, and her maid sneaked up to Meng Qi. And Xie Fen was also very abnormal. She held Meng Qi's hand and talked non-stop, and was very affectionate. Later, the maid next to Meng Qi squeezed in between that girl and Meng Qi. At that time, I was wondering why Meng Qi's maid was so tactless. Why did a servant get so close to the master when he was talking?"

"Then what? Does Xie Fen want to do something bad?" Zhou Yu looked curious.

"What do you think? Which mother-in-law really loves her daughter-in-law and would let her go out for a walk with a big belly? When I paid attention to them again, Xie Fen's skirt was covered with bloodstains, and Meng Qi was helped up by that girl. Yes, it was Su Qing. Meng Qi also told Xie Fen that it was Su Qing who reminded her that Xie Fen was not feeling well and it was not good to hold her hand all the time and talk endlessly."

"Blood, could it be that Xie Fen wanted to frame that idiot and was discovered by Su Qing?" Zhou Yu said nervously.

"Yes, that should be the case, but Meng Qi's incident happened a little later, and I forgot to tell you about it. From this point of view, Su Qing is really good, brave and resourceful, really good. Now that she has the identity of the legitimate daughter of the Huainan Marquis's Mansion, oh, Danzhi..."

Xu Cheng looked at Zhou Yingrong's increasingly excited face, nodded with a smile, and said to Zhou Yu, "We agree."

Zhou Yu jumped up excitedly, turned around a few times, and rubbed his hands, "What should we do? Does my father need to step in?"

"No, this matter is best handled by the Huainan Marquisate." Xu Cheng said in a gentle voice.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Yu asked anxiously.

"Since they were able to treat a legitimate daughter as a maid for two years, and even made up such an excuse to cover up their lies, I think if we give this reason, Meng Changfeng will definitely not refuse. And if the Meng family insists, father-in-law will be hesitant and it will be difficult for him to object. When you go home, you must not confront father-in-law head-on. Just talk to mother-in-law and say that this is her decision. I don't think the princess can influence father-in-law."

"Brother-in-law, how are you going to tell Lord Meng?" Zhou Yu asked anxiously.

"Don't worry about this. I'll take care of it. Just wait for good news. Just don't cause trouble these days. Don't be impulsive at home and let them make trouble. And you have to continue to pretend that you don't know what to do. You can't let Mrs. Hu see what you are thinking. This matter must be cut into pieces quickly."

Zhou Yu felt light and relaxed after coming out of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion. He saw beautiful scenery everywhere. The things that had been troubling him for a long time could be solved. Thinking that he could marry Su Qing, he was so happy that he jumped for joy.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Yingrong and Xu Cheng asked their husbands as they walked towards the inner courtyard.

"I would like to ask Uncle Yue to come forward."

"Lord Pingxi?"

"Yes, if this matter did not involve you, father could have stepped in. But if our family took the lead, it would inevitably make the princess think too much, and it would be bad to complicate a simple matter."

Xu Cheng gently pulled away the branches that were sticking out from the side of the corridor, and Zhou Yingrong slightly bent over and walked over.

"Go directly to Lord Huainan?"

"Yes, because even if we find someone to tell the Crown Prince's wife about this, she will still have to report it to Lord Meng. It would be better to go directly to Lord Meng. Because the one who least wants to cancel this marriage with the palace is Lord Meng. We have solved such a big problem for him, he will definitely be happy."

"In fact, Lord Meng made such a fuss about the Second Miss's return home. Maybe he had the same idea in mind?"

Xu Cheng stood there and looked at his wife for a while before nodding, "What you said makes sense. Since the fourth young lady can't get married, then we can just find someone who can marry in her place. It's just a coincidence."

"Are you doubting that Su Qing is not the real second daughter of the Meng family?"

"It's hard to say. If it's fake, they can just find someone no one has ever seen. Then they can say what's right and what's wrong. Su Qing has been with the fourth young lady for a long time, and he also goes in and out of other mansions. It's not worth it for the Huainan Marquis' mansion.

"But if it is true, the timing is too coincidental. Just like you said, maybe this is also what Lord Meng thinks? I think there must be something we don't know. Maybe when A Yu really marries the new second lady, everything will have an answer."

Zhou Yingrong nodded and smiled, "Anyway, I haven't seen Ah Yu so happy in a long time. Whenever his marriage was mentioned before, he would either frown or sigh. It should have been discussed a long time ago, but he kept pushing it off. He had so many arguments with my father over this, and Hu Shi got the benefit for nothing."

"You are right. I think my mother-in-law's spirit in heaven feels pity for A-Yu. This time, A-Yu will marry someone she likes, and she seems to be smart. So, no matter what the situation is with this Su Qing, no, the second Miss Meng, you should not say anything more. If she doesn't know how to do something, you should teach her when you get the chance."

Zhou Yingrong took her husband's hand and said coquettishly, "Don't worry, I know this. As long as Ayu likes her and can help her deal with the people in that mansion, even if she doesn't like me, I will hold her in my hands."

"Don't like you? I don't think anyone dislikes you except the princess and the others. Look at how my mother acted when you first came in, and look at how she treats you now. Who wouldn't like you? I don't like to hear that."

Zhou Yingrong looked at Xu Cheng pretending to be angry, and felt relieved. If he hadn't insisted and knelt in the Xu family ancestral hall, saying that if he didn't marry her, he would live alone for the rest of his life, his mother-in-law would not be able to persuade him and finally agreed. Now she really didn't know what her fate would be. Either she would marry into that unbearable family as Mrs. Hu wished, or she would cut her hair and become a nun.

"In that case, this matter needs to be settled quickly before the princess responds. I will go find Hongliang now."

"Yes, you should go quickly, so as to avoid any more trouble. But have you thought of a reason?"

"Yes, don't worry." Xu Cheng patted his wife's hand and turned away.

Zhou Yingrong looked up at the azure sky, and all the turbidity that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time because of the matter with Meng Qi suddenly disappeared. Thinking of that pretty girl with lively eyes and sweet voice, Zhou Yingrong was suddenly full of hope for her brother's future.
