Raising a wife? The mistress of the Hou family divorced and remarried her younger uncle

Chapter 308 Rumors
Su Qingwan wasn't worried about others ruining her reputation; they would find out sooner or later anyway. She couldn't control what others said. Lu Yunshu said, "Third sister-in-law, don't worry. I will definitely explain for you when I go to the banquet in the future."

"People can say whatever they want, it's their freedom. What's the point of you explaining yourself? It doesn't matter!" Su Qingwan said with a light laugh. "If they dare to spread rumors, they should see if they have the guts."

Princess Xinyue also arrived. She was already married to a family of upright civil officials. When she was in the palace, she had a close relationship with Su Qingwan and greatly admired and respected her. At that time, Su Qingwan was impersonating the Southwest Princess, and she hadn't revealed her true identity yet. Princess Xinyue was furious and distressed when she learned of Lu Jing's arranged marriage. She had hoped the Southwest Princess would marry Lu Jing and that they would have more contact in the capital. Who knew that someone would be switched at birth? When she entered the mansion and saw a face exactly like Xie Zhaolan's, she was even more enraged.

However, Princess Xinyue was no longer as willful as she was before her marriage. With the young emperor's ascension to the throne and the regent's excessive power, the imperial clan was weak. Back then, everyone knew that she liked Lu Jing, and others advised her not to have a conflict with the princess.

Princess Xinyue's gaze was extremely unfriendly. It seemed the rumors of an affair between the uncle and sister-in-law were true. What a pity for the Southwest Princess, she was betrayed by the Lu family. What a disgrace!
asshole!!!!
Princess Xinyue wanted to curse, but she tried her best to control her temper. If the royal family were powerful, she wouldn't be afraid of offending people and would have started cursing long ago. She was convinced that Lu Jing and her eldest sister-in-law had been having an affair for a long time. He used the Southwest Princess as a cover, and after gaining power, he kicked the princess aside, married his eldest sister-in-law, and gave her a beautiful and innocent identity.

What a scoundrel! She had liked such a despicable man for so many years, how foolish! Xinyue truly hated Lu Jing, feeling that he had not only betrayed the Southwest Princess, but also her years of affection, and her eyes reddened.

“Xinyue…” Su Qingwan felt a little reluctant. She was quite popular with young girls. She was upright, efficient, and had a personality that was somewhat like a man's, yet she was a woman. Girls would often rely on her when they were with her. Both Lu Yunshu and Xinyue showed this tendency. She was also willing to protect the younger girls.

"I don't know you at all!" Xinyue said angrily, turning away and running off to complain to her female friends. She was determined to say bad things about Lu Jing today.

The loss of moral principles and ethics is despicable.

The princess is no good either!

Su Qingwan's identity cannot be revealed to too many people to avoid potential problems. Chen Lanzhu said, "Don't worry about her. Xinyue is just short-tempered. She's not the type to stab people in the back. She'll say whatever's on her mind."

Su Qingwan had long since figured out Xinyue's personality and was trying to find a way to appease her, but judging from Xinyue's eyes, she felt that Xinyue disliked her quite a bit.

Let's wait a while; there's plenty of time.

Su Qingwan was a very responsible hostess, handling everything meticulously. She was very experienced in hosting such banquets and took good care of every female guest, speaking and interacting with people with proper etiquette.

Many people gathered to gossip about her and Lu Jing, but dared not speak openly. Everyone said Lu Jing had gone mad, and so had she. Divorced from her brother, she married her younger brother, and he was her first wife, not a concubine hidden in the mansion. Zhang and Lin were both there; how could the Lu family have kept it so well hidden?

Lu Yunyan's best friend couldn't help but ask, "How come your family has so much drama? Did the younger brother steal his older brother's first wife and children? Did the brothers turn against each other?"

Lu Yunyan's expression was indifferent. "She is the Princess of Huainan, not Miss Xie. You should know your place and not speak carelessly."

"Don't be angry. It's not just me saying this. After today, the whole capital will be talking about it. They really are capable of doing such a thing!"
