Shen Ningning patted the back of her hand to comfort her.

"Sister Jiang, don't worry. After we go back, Mrs. Zhang will know that it was a misunderstanding, and Mrs. Shu will teach Su Zhirou a lesson."

Even so, Jiang Zhi was still worried.

She was afraid of causing trouble to Chen Shaobei.

Mo Lingwei leaned against the doorframe. Although his attitude towards Jiang Zhi was still a little cold, it was not as tit-for-tat as before.

"Don't worry. Based on my understanding of Chen Shaobei, I am not sure that he will not leave you in the military camp."

Hearing Mo Lingwei say this, Jiang Zhi could only nodded slightly.

Jiang Zhi hurried back to the military camp, and Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei also left early.

On the way home, Mo Lingwei looked sideways at the girl beside him, with a faint smile hanging on his lips.

"Why didn't you tell Jiang Zhi that she was a woman earlier?"

"I promised Sister Jiang to help her hide her identity."

After Shen Ningning finished speaking, when she saw Mo Lingwei smiling, the girl tilted her head, a little confused.

"Brother, what are you happy about?"

"No," Mo Lingwei denied, but raised his eyebrows and asked, "Will you tell me one day that Lu Shaoyuan is also a woman?"

Shen Ningning didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I really can't do this. He is a genuine man."

When he heard the words "genuine goods", Mo Lingwei's smiling face suddenly turned gloomy.

Seeing him tightening his thin lips, there was a chill in his thin eyes.

Shen Ningning blinked her innocent eyes: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? He is really a man!"

Mo Lingwei gritted his teeth: "You - that's all."

He folded his arms and looked out the car window, looking as if he was annoyed by Shen Ningning.

After sending the girl back to Xie's Mansion, Mo Lingwei couldn't help but say something else: "Shen Ningning, you are a girl after all. Don't talk about genuine goods. You and he are not that close. I listened. dislike."

After that, he lowered the car curtain and said, "Let's go."

The carriage drove away in a hurry.

Shen Ningning was left blinking her long eyelashes in confusion.

"The real thing..." She muttered and pondered: "How can it be so ambiguous and intimate? Brother is so weird!"

Su Mansion.

In the hall, Mrs. Shu sat on a chair with a majestic expression.

Su Zhirou knelt on the futon in front of her with a pitiful look on her face.

"Mom, please calm down, I know I was wrong."

"Zhirou, ah Zhirou, I asked the best gentleman to teach you etiquette, justice and integrity. How can you make noise about other people's family affairs outside?"

Mrs. Shu said, shaking her head: "You really disappoint me."

Su Zhirou was anxious: "Mother! Why don't you believe me? I really saw...Vice General Zhang interact closely with a woman."

She did not testify against Chen Shaobei because Chen Shaobei's official position was higher than that of Deputy General Zhang.

If the wrong person caught today was Chen Shaobei's own mistake, I don't know how big of a joke it would be.

Su Zhirou was afraid that Mrs. Shu would be completely angry if she said so.

However, Mrs. Shu's complexion is no longer good now.

"Whether it's true or not, it's the business of someone else's husband and wife. What does it have to do with you?"

"Not only are you not related to Mrs. Zhang, but you also go to other people's houses to sow discord. It's okay if it's true. If it's fake, like now, how should you let Mrs. Zhang and Vice General Zhang face Mancheng? The ups and downs?"

Su Zhirou trembled and hesitated: "The storm in the city? How could it be so serious? Besides, didn't we catch it?"

"You!" Mrs. Shu pointed at her, suddenly rolled up her sleeves, and pressed her eyebrows helplessly.

She sighed: "In a few days, I will send you back to Shuzhou. There are better etiquette nuns there who will teach you well."

Su Zhirou was shocked: "Mother! Are you sending me away from the capital?"

"Otherwise? Will you stay in the capital and continue to make jokes? Shuzhou is also very good. There are more connections there that can cultivate you, and there are also promising people in the area who can find you an excellent marriage."

As soon as Mrs. Shu finished speaking, Su Zhirou stood up suddenly.

With tears in her eyes, she said angrily: "I won't leave! Mother, I know, you have never regarded me as your biological daughter, but as a burden."

"Now that I have done something wrong, you are rushing to send me away, but I won't leave. I won't leave the capital!"

After finishing speaking, Su Zhirou picked up her skirt, wiped her tears and ran out.

Mrs. Shu didn't expect this girl to be so angry.

Even more disappointed.

Over the years, she had treated Su Zhirou well and raised her as her own daughter.

Why wasn't there any understanding in exchange?

That night.

Vice General Zhang, who was extremely angry, made a scene at the door of Su Mansion.

No matter how hard Mrs. Zhang pulled, he refused to leave.

Standing outside the door and yelling, give him an explanation.

"Young lady of the Su family, if you can, come out and meet me. We are strangers to each other. What are your intentions in spreading rumors about me, Zhang?"

Mrs. Zhang pulled him twice: "Okay, let's go. We'll talk about it when we get home. I told you it was a misunderstanding."

Vice General Zhang is a tall man with a black beard.

His eyes widened, showing the power of a military commander.

"Is it a misunderstanding? The misunderstanding was stated in a clear and logical manner. I have never offended her Su family! I don't care. If you don't give me an explanation today, I will go to the emperor and let him comment!"

"We are living a good life. I am out there protecting our family and the country. Someone actually provokes my wife. It is really unreasonable. Young lady of the Su family, come out! Tell me clearly!"

His voice was so loud that several prominent people in the alley came out to see what was going on.

Mrs. Zhang had no choice but to get in the carriage and wait for him.

Su Zhirou hid in the house and heard the maid say that Deputy General Zhang was looking for trouble. She was so frightened that she covered her head with the quilt.

"I don't see you. It's so late and I'm almost asleep. Let him make the noise. It's his people who are being lost anyway."

The maid had no choice but to bother Mrs. Shu.

Finally, the door of Su Mansion opened, and Mrs. Shu walked out in plain clothes, followed by two servants holding lamps.

Vice General Zhang glanced behind her angrily: "Where is that nonsense little lady of yours? Come out and see me! I will only ask her about this matter, no matter what others say."

Mrs. Shu sighed: "Vice General Zhang, my daughter-in-law did not know how to handle this matter. She did not confirm it clearly and just talked nonsense outside. She already knows that she was wrong. How about I ask her to come to your door to apologize to you some other time?"

Vice General Zhang's face turned red with anger.

"Mrs. Shu, I know you have a kind-hearted nature, but this little lady of yours is so annoying. Why are you trying to provoke me and my wife? I, Zhang, have never offended her!"

Mrs. Shu is such a noble person. She has been noble since she was born.

How had I ever been pointed in the nose and lectured like this for the sake of an adopted daughter?

She had no shame in her face and could only nod sadly: "That's what you said."

Vice General Zhang didn't want to cause too much trouble.

After all, although Mrs. Shu is no longer the princess, she is still well cared for by the prince.

He also saw that Su Zhirou didn't dare to come out.

So, he raised his voice and said: "How can she clear my innocence just by apologizing to me? Let's do this, you hold a banquet and let her clarify that she was wrong in front of everyone at the banquet. , this matter has nothing to do with me, Mrs. Shu, this is my only request!"

Mrs. Shu frowned slightly.

She glanced at Vice General Zhang and finally nodded: "Okay."

Seeing that she had agreed, Mrs. Zhang sat on the carriage, raised the curtain and shouted: "Okay, just accept it when you're ready. Why are you embarrassing Mrs. Shu?"

Vice General Zhang naturally knows this truth.

Before leaving, he cursed at the people in the house: "These days, you have to be careful when you adopt a child, lest you raise a white-eyed wolf who gets into trouble and just acts like a coward and lets the elders handle it. What's this called?" Rules! Huh.”

The Zhang family's carriage left.

Mrs. Shu stood at the door, the two lanterns under the plaque swaying back and forth, and she sighed softly.

The housekeeper was concerned: "Madam, do you want to tell His Highness the Crown Prince?"

After all, what kind of reputation does the Su family have, to actually hold a banquet to apologize is a slap in the face.

If the prince came forward, it would definitely not be so troublesome.

Mrs. Shu shook her head: "This matter should be clarified at a banquet. Vice General Zhang is right, and Zhirou should be taught a lesson."

Su Zhirou later heard the maid tell her everything that happened outside the door.

She gnashed her teeth angrily in the quilt.

Madam Shu actually didn't ask her to apologize in front of all the nobles in the capital? !

She insisted on finding evidence that Chen Shaobei kept a beautiful concubine, so that they all knew that she had done nothing wrong!
