Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Chapter 409 Princess Rong comes to question

That sigh made Ling Chaowen stiffen all over, and a surge of anger suddenly rose in his heart.

He knew his own worth. There were many people who looked down on him and thought he was unworthy of the title of Duke. He had long been accustomed to it and was not angry.

But Princess Rong will soon be Jinlan's mother-in-law. This is the first time they meet, and she has such an attitude. I'm afraid she has bad intentions.

Just then, Ling Jinlan came in.

He slowly stepped forward and saluted Princess Rong, "Greetings, Princess Rong."

Ever since Ling Jinlan appeared, Princess Rong looked her over and over. "Are you Ling Jinlan?"

Ling Jinlan nodded slightly, "Yes."

She tried her best to remain calm and composed.

But Princess Rong could still see her fingers tightly clutching her sleeves, and she could see that she was nervous.

"He looks frail and has none of the Ling family's style." Princess Rong sounded somewhat disappointed.

These words made Ling Jinlan feel awkward and at a loss.

Ling Chaowen immediately spoke up: "Jinlan is just a bit quiet, but she's not weak."

If a fight really breaks out, how many punches can Princess Rong withstand from Jin Lan?

Princess Rong added, "You are a quiet person and you should know the rules. I have been in Kyoto for several days and I haven't seen you come to visit me."

"You're getting married soon, so shouldn't you first pay a visit to me, your elder?"

"You have to wait for me to come to your door."

When I heard it, I thought, are you here to call me to task?

Ling Jinlan hurriedly tried to answer, "According to the rules, I shouldn't go to the man's house before the wedding. I'm not being disrespectful..."

"Alright." Princess Rong interrupted coldly, "If you were wrong, you were wrong. Just admit it. Don't make excuses."

"I don't blame you. After all, there are no elders in the family. How can a few children who are still wet behind the ears understand how many rules they should know?"

Hearing this, Ling Chaowen almost slammed the table and stood up.

His hands clenched into fists, but he endured it again and again. Their wedding was about to begin, and he couldn't let the marriage be ruined.

He was also afraid of offending Princess Rong, who would make things difficult for Jin Lan in the future.

After all, it concerns Jinlan's lifelong event.

Ling Jinlan politely retorted, "Princess Rong, you're wrong. How can the Ling family claim to have no elders? The current Imperial Concubine Rong is my aunt, and her last name is Ling. How can she not be considered my elder?"

When Concubine Rong was suddenly brought up, Princess Rong's expression changed slightly. She could tell that Ling Jinlan was using Concubine Rong to pressure her.

When Princess Rong was about to speak again.

Ling Jinlan spoke first, interrupting her: "And what Princess Rong said about us not visiting in time? It was precisely because we strictly abided by the rules that we did not go to Prince Rong's Mansion."

"What kind of girl would rush to the man's house before getting married? If I really did that, I would only be laughed at, not only me, but also the Rong Palace."

These words made Princess Rong look unhappy. She had just arrived, and Ling Jinlan was going to give her a warning?

"What a sharp-tongued Miss Ling."

Princess Rong's tone suddenly turned cold, and her eyes became sharp.

Ling Jinlan lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Princess Rong, for the compliment."

Princess Rong's face suddenly turned angry, "You!"

Just then, a figure strode over from outside.

With a somewhat unhappy look on his face, he walked into the main hall.

"Mother, what are you doing? You told me you were going out to buy something, but you came to the Duke of Ling's mansion without even saying hello."

Qin Huaizhao's tone was dissatisfied and questioning.

It was definitely not a good thing that his mother came to the Duke of Ling's Mansion to find Ling Jinlan without telling him.

Princess Rong did not feel guilty at all and sat firmly on the chair.

"I just stopped by to take a look. Whose son is getting married and the mother-in-law has never seen what the new bride looks like?"

"If I hadn't insisted on attending your wedding, you wouldn't have even thought of inviting me. Marriage is a matter of parents' and matchmakers' decision!"

"It's all very well that your marriage is granted by the Emperor, but how can you not have your parents present on the wedding day?"

"The bride's parents are not here, but your parents are still alive!"

Princess Rong had a stern face, a serious and angry expression, which brought a strong sense of oppression.

Qin Huaizhao explained, "It was the Emperor who granted the marriage, and the wedding was held in Kyoto. We didn't have time to invite you over, and given my father's status, it's not convenient for him to come to Kyoto."

Although his father is Prince Rong, his fiefdom is far away in Liyang. He has not returned to the capital for so many years, and he cannot return to the capital just for his wedding.

The more dutiful you are in guarding your fiefdom, the better.

How many of the late emperor’s sons are still alive?

Those who died in accidents died in accidents, and those who died of illness died of illness. Everyone knows the reasons.

So when he got married this time, he didn't think of inviting his father to come. At worst, he could hold another wedding in Liyang later.

"Okay, let's talk about it when we get home. Don't disturb them!"

The wedding is coming soon, and he doesn't want to cause trouble for Jinlan.

He immediately stepped forward and pulled Princess Rong up.

Princess Rong was even more furious, but she had to maintain her dignity and not lose her status, so she could only leave angrily without even saying goodbye.

Ling Jinlan followed behind, feeling a little lost.

She reflected on whether she should not have refuted the elders. When the elders spoke, she should just listen and nod in agreement.

"I'm sorry, I made your mother angry." Ling Jinlan faced Qin Huaizhao, feeling a little guilty.

Qin Huaizhao patted her shoulder, feeling extremely guilty.

"It's my fault. The wedding is coming up in a few days, and I shouldn't have come to see you at this time, nor should I have come without saying hello. If my mother said anything unpleasant, I apologize to you."

"I'll explain it to my mother when I get home, don't take it to heart!"

Ling Jinlan nodded.

Princess Rong, who had already walked out of the door, looked back and saw the two of them talking.

Although I couldn't hear what they said, I was furious when I saw Ling Jinlan's aggrieved look. She must be complaining!

Got on the carriage.

Qin Huaizhao came up soon.

"Mom, why did you come to Jinlan without saying hello? That's so rude." Qin Huaizhao was a little angry.

When questioned like this, Princess Rong immediately became furious.

"What? Can't I even come and see the new bride? She's going to be my daughter-in-law, but I don't even know what she looks like. Are you guys just secretly getting married?"

"She complained to you? She said I bullied her, right?"

Hearing this, Qin Huaizhao quickly explained: "Jinlan is not the kind of person you think. She just apologized to me and said that she shouldn't have made you angry."

Upon hearing this explanation, Princess Rong sneered.

"Apologize? Why don't you apologize to me in person? Why do you have to apologize to you alone?"

"You're so sharp-tongued when you talk to me, and you act like you're wronged in front of you."

"I've seen a lot of girls like this. They say one thing and mean another. They look gentle and quiet, but they have so many tricks up their sleeves that I can't even count them."

"Which of the girls around your father isn't like this? You haven't been in Liyang for long. If you had seen the tricks of those little bitches, you wouldn't be fooled by this girl from the Ling family!"

Princess Rong became more and more angry as she spoke.

Her husband was fooled by such a woman, but she didn't expect that her son would also fall into the hands of such a woman.

What evil had she done?

Hearing these unpleasant words, Qin Huaizhao's heart tightened and he couldn't help but clench his palms.

If his mother came to Jinlan and said these unpleasant words, what would Jinlan think?

She is sensitive by nature.

"enough!"
