As soon as Mrs. Shen came out, she went up to her, "Godmother, I heard that you have lost your appetite recently, so I specially made some bird's nest porridge over here, and I also put some hawthorn in it. It's sour and appetizing. You, Eat something later, don't starve yourself."
Mrs. Shen took Murong Yuer's porridge and took a sip, "It's really delicious."
"As long as the godmother likes to drink."
Mrs. Shen sighed, "I don't know when the rumors will subside. Thinking about it, my Shen family has always been self-disciplined and innocent. Why did I tarnish their reputation because of me?"
"What did the godmother say? It's the people outside who like to gossip. What does it have to do with the people inside? Even if it has something to do with it, it's not up to you, the godmother. Let me tell you, if you want It wasn't because Yue'er got the wind and cold, it wouldn't have happened."
Murong Yu'er pretended not to know about Xiao Mingyue's infertility, so she asked Mrs. Shen innocently, "But a good wind and cold can spread infertility in this way, people who spread rumors are really not ordinary vicious."
Mrs. Shen originally wanted to blurt out this matter with Murong Yu'er, but suddenly thought that so many servants were still there, so she sent them all away.
Seeing that the servants walked away, Mrs. Shen said, "I'll just talk to you."
"What the godmother wants to say, I just listen."
Mrs. Shen sighed again, "The thing about Yue'er's infertility is actually true. That man, Mr. Liu, came to help her see the wind and cold, and when he saw half of it, he called me and Xiao'er out, and told about it. He also Said, Yue'er's disease is very difficult to cure, even the empresses in the palace can't cure it."
After hearing this, Murong Yu'er opened her mouth and pretended to be surprised, "How could this happen? Yue'er always looks alive and kicking, how could she have this disease."
"I think she just loves to jump around too much. Girls are like girls, and quietness is better than anything else."
Murong Yu'er supported Mrs. Shen and nodded in agreement.
After a while, she seemed to think of something again, and said cautiously, "Then let's put it this way."
Murong Yu'er deliberately swallowed a few words, but as expected, Mrs. Shen asked her, "Yu'er, just say what you want."
Murong Yu'er said submissively, "Forget it, if people find out, they will say that I'm a tongue-twister."
"Yu'er, just say what you want. Since you call me mother, you can just say what you want to say. There are still scruples between mother and daughter."
"Then Yu'er will tell." Murong Yu'er deliberately pretended to be hesitant, "Godmother, I think Xiao Mingyue may have spread this rumor by herself."
Mrs. Shen turned pale with shock, "How can you talk nonsense? What good does Yue'er tell the story of her infertility? Besides, Xiao'er and I have also discussed it. We didn't tell her. She never knew about it. thing."
"Godmother, my brother-in-law and Xiao Mingyue are husband and wife. They sleep in the same bed at night. They might slip up at some point. It's very possible. If Xiao Mingyue knew about this, she would definitely be flustered. Afraid that she would not be able to keep her place in the Hou's Mansion, she spread the news and added some bad things about you, putting herself in the position of the victim. Think about it, if you let brother Xiao If you divorce her, the world will have to blame you."
"What are you talking about me?"
"You have been rumored by others as an evil mother-in-law who caused abortions. Of course, it is said that you cheated your daughter-in-law and kicked her out of the house. At that time, the truth will not be all on her side."
When Murong Yu'er analyzed each sentence, Mrs. Shen heard it in her heart, and it made sense.
Master Liu only talked about this matter with himself and Xiao'er. Master Liu is not a person who likes to gossip in his spare time, so he should not talk about other people's family affairs. This matter spread like this, Xiao Mingyue is actually the beneficiary.
"But Yue'er is really capable of such a thing?" Mrs. Shen seemed to be asking herself.
"Godmother, you know people and faces but you don't know your heart."
Bad things really can spread thousands of miles away, especially places like Kyoto where there are many outsiders and people flow widely.
Chu Rong, who is far away in Wen County, entertained a boss from Kyoto today. The merchant knew about Chu Rong's shop through the Zhuan Zhu Banquet, so he came here specially to discuss business with Chu Rong. His business is nothing more than providing some snacks and preserved fruits to some teahouses. He knows many tea house owners, and those owners buy their goods from him.
Chu Rong thought that the best situation would be to supply directly by herself. Unfortunately, her network is not as wide as this boss, so she can only agree. After all, it is a matter of mutual benefit.
The two chatted and chatted, thisThe board talked about the situation in Kyoto recently.
Xiao Mingyue hadn't written to Chu Rong for some days, so she casually inquired about the Zhongyonghou Mansion.
"You mean this Zhongyonghou's Mansion? Then the sky has been turned upside down recently." The boss's tone was quite gossip.
"The sky-shattering? Such a sky-shattering method?" Chu Rong asked curiously.
"Marquis Zhongyong and his wife just recognized their son who has been missing for many years, do you know?"
