Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 413 Bringing up the past again, Mrs. Lu is insane (1)
Thinking of this, Qiu Mingyue couldn't help but think of the second master.Unexpectedly, the second master, who seems taciturn and ignorant of human feelings, has a deep love for the second wife?The Eldest Master can be regarded as a lover, and so is the Second Master.However, men in this era will have three wives and four concubines no matter how much they fall in love with a woman.She thought of Feng Qingli again, who promised her that she would not take a concubine to carry the whole house.

Qiu Mingyue's footsteps suddenly slowed down, as if she was thinking about something.Smile for a while, this is just the beginning, why think so much?What will happen in the future, no one knows, why bother yourself with that unrealistic illusion?
Shaking her head, her steps became brisk again.

After returning to Xueyue Pavilion, Qiu Mingyue didn't go out.Rumors were flying all over the sky outside, but she turned a deaf ear to them and lay in the house all afternoon.It wasn't until the third quarter of Xu time, when the moon was hollow, that she woke up leisurely.

The green kite came in a hurry outside the door.

"Miss, the third lady was fined and grounded. Seventh Miss and Eighth Miss moved to the old matriarch's house. The old matriarch said that the Shou'an Courtyard is the cleanest, which is good for Eighth Miss to recuperate. Seventh Miss will take care of her at the side. Before Miss Ba got married, she stayed in Shou'an Courtyard."

Qiu Mingyue was not surprised to get this result.

"The third lady exposed by Youlian?" An affirmative sentence, not a question sentence.

Lu Yuan nodded, "Youlian said frankly that when Mengzhi went to take a pee, she had sneaked into the kitchen and put the seven spirit herbs in Miss Ba's medicine jar. Many people in the kitchen saw her appearing at that time. Youlian also took out the Seven Spirit Grass hidden in the third lady's room. And Shui Xiang, the maid beside the third lady, also confessed in due course how the third lady used to persecute Aunt Yu, and used Miss Ba's repeated threats It belongs to Aunt Yu and Miss Seven."

"Shuixiang?" Qiu Mingyue was a little surprised, "Isn't she Third Aunt's personal maid?"

"Do not."

"No?" Qiu Mingyue lay down again, fingers playing with the soft cigarette at her waist, and the corners of her mouth were playful.

"She belongs to the second brother?"

Lu Yuan was a little surprised, "Miss, how do you know?"

Qiu Mingyue smiled lightly and remained silent.

Lu Yuan said again: "In the afternoon, it was Han Dan who told the servant, so the servant knew. It turns out that Shui Xiang was bought by the third young master long ago. The third lady deliberately set aside Shui Xiang before, just to let Shui Xiang destroy the evidence. But But Shuixiang ran out and told Youlian, and gave Youlian the box containing the Seven Spirit Grass from the third lady's room."

Qiu Mingyue sipped her tea and said, "Youlian testified against Third Aunt, what does Third Aunt say?"

"At first, the third lady did not plead guilty to death, saying that someone framed her, and said how virtuous and magnanimous she was after being married to the Qiu Mansion for so many years. The third master took so many concubines, so he put her aside as a regular wife. She endured the indifference, and even went out of her way to send a woman to the third master... Now she is not convinced that she poisoned Aunt Yu just based on the one-sided words of a few maids."

Qiu Mingyue smiled, "She's quite stubborn." She lay down again and asked lazily.

"What happened later? How did grandma and third uncle react?"

"The third master has not spoken, the old lady only let Shui Xiang and You Lian continue to talk. In the end, Miss, guess what happened? Shui Xiang actually had more than half of the maids in Xiyuan to testify against the third lady, and many of them were still in the third lady's house. You Lian also admitted that she was the eyeliner that the Third Madam placed next to Miss Eight, and she also said how the Third Madam used to persecute Miss Eight, and poisoned Miss Eight's medicine almost every half a month..."

Lu Yuan couldn't help feeling a little resentful when she said this, "Youlian said that the third lady was just flattering and killing the fourth lady, and besides the fourth young master and the eighth lady, the third lady also killed many children of the third master."

Qiu Mingyue's eyelashes trembled, "Oh?"

Lu Yuan was a little angry, "Miss, you don't know how hateful the third lady is. She looks soft and weak, but her heart is more poisonous than snakes and scorpions."

Qiu Mingyue picked up a book casually and flipped through it casually.

"Third Uncle has quite a few children..." She suddenly stopped. Of the three lords in the Qiu Mansion, the Eldest Man has the most children.But they are all daughters, and only Mingrui is a son.Counting, the second master and the third master each have two sons.No, besides Qiu Mingxuan, there is only one Qiu Mingxi.

She didn't have a deep impression of Qiu Mingxi, but she only knew that he was weak and unyielding.But on second thought, with a mother as shrewd as Aunt Yue, is Qiu Mingxi really so ineffective?For a moment, I thought of Qiuming Brocade again.There are too many people hiding in the Qiu Mansion, even a random maid has a secret, let alone these masters?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but think of the second lady again.The Second Madam is such a good means, and possesses superb martial arts skills, she seems to know how to use poison, and the Second Master pampers her like that.Even if Aunt Yue has some skills, she shouldn't be still proud of herself until now.

Now, she finally understands.The second master has known for a long time that the second wife has a heart and is pregnant with someone else's child, and according to what Qiu Mingzhu said, for so many years, the second master and the second wife have been in name only.No wonder the second wife has no children except Qiu Mingxuan.As the second son of the Qiu family, how can the second master have no offspring?

Therefore, Qiu Mingxi, Qiu Mingzhen, and Qiu Mingzhu were born safely and grew up safely under the clutches of the second wife, it should be the second master who secretly protected them.The second lady was angry with the second master, so she became more and more indifferent to the second master.The second master neglected the second wife. On the one hand, he felt that he had hurt the second wife's heart by repeatedly accepting concubines. On the other hand, he didn't want him to treat the concubines too much, which would make the second wife even more jealous and exterminate them.

If this is the case, isn't the second master a heartless person?
Qiu Mingyue felt that the second lady was simply a weird person.Since she doesn't like the Second Master, why does she care about the Second Master's concubines?Could it be that he was hurt too deeply by Xuanyuan Jiong before, coupled with the 'betrayal' of the second master, which led to a psychopath?
But if she really hated Xuanyuan Jiong, why did she give birth to that man?In this world, how important is a woman's reputation?How can someone as noble as the second wife give birth to a child for a person who destroyed her family?
unless--

She thought of Qiu Mingxuan constantly telling herself his mission and responsibility, of the exhaustion and sadness in his eyes, of the cold tone of the second wife that night in the grove, of his saying that he would take her away...

Could Qiu Mingxuan be the second wife's revenge tool?
It is said that the hearts of parents in the world are pitiful.As a mother, which one is not dedicated to the good of her children?Arrogant and arrogant like a big lady, but doting on Qiu Mingyu like a treasure.Insidious and hypocritical like the third wife, isn't she also wholeheartedly fighting for the future and glory of her son?

And this second wife, selfish, only for her own deep hatred, even using her own son.
