Chapter 36B: Always Clever and Eloquent
"You’re speaking nonsense!"
Sun Yingxiang heard Luo Qing Luan say that about her brother and she yelled. "Stop slandering my brother. He isn’t that kind of person!"
"Oh~?" Luo Luan calmly and unhurriedly responded. "Then the day before yesterday, for the sake of winning Miss Meng’s company, a leading courtesan at Heavenly Dream Tower, someone publicly got into a fight with another person in the middle of a busy street. In the end, that person even had Hu Cong break his adversary’s leg. I heard that the person’s name is Sun Feng. Don’t tell me that he’s not Miss Sun’s brother?"
"You......" Sun Yingxiang was at a loss for words, as her complexion blushed a deep red.
Immediately, the upper-class women and young ladies started whispering as they saw that Madam Sun’s complexion changed completely.
They were unlike Luo Qing Luan, who could go shopping in the streets at any time, so they had not heard of this matter before, but they discerned that Luo Qing Luan described everything extremely clearly. Moreover, this matter also happened in the middle of the street, so every one of them believed it.
Previously, people even flattered her for educating her children well, setting a moral compass for them, yet now, Madam Sun’s face had been slapped. How could her face endure it? Even though she restrained herself, at this moment, she could no longer help but get angry.
But everything Luo Qing Luan said was true. Even though she wanted to berate Luo Qing Luan, she could not find any grounds for doing so.
"The Second Miss Luo is indeed clever and eloquent. However, this is my Sun family’s personal affair and there’s no need to trouble you."
Madam Sun was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down, yet she could only suppress herself and continued coldly. "Moreover, men and women are not the same. If my son marries several women, that reflects his ability. I’m also happy that he can spread more seeds to produce more offspring for the Sun family. However, you have been divorced by Fifth Prince. I don’t know which family will dare to marry you in the future. It’s better that you stay at home and learn more home arts. Perhaps there’ll be a tiny bit of hope."
This matter had always been something that Wang Xue Ru and Luo Qing Shuang was most happy about. Even though Luo Qing Luan was currently helping them by speaking up, once this matter was brought up, it immediately gave them a dog-eat-dog feeling, a feeling of rejoicing in someone else’s misfortune.
Wang Xue Ru also didn’t want to totally offend Madam Sun, so she immediately spoke. "Qing Luan, Madam Sun is right. Why don’t you thank Madam Sun?"
Luo Qing Luan was as before and did not get angry as she stood up, straightened her clothes, then turned towards Madam Sun. "Yes, thank you, Madam Sun, for your instructions. In the future, I must remember not to marry someone like Mister Sun and Envoy Sun, who are both men who loves to take in concubines. If it’s like that, I’d rather not marry so as to avoid becoming as forlorn as Madam Sun."
This information was something that Nangong Yu casually told Luo Qing Luan when she was at Heavenly Dream Tower. Otherwise, she also wouldn’t have learned of it. Now, merely by mentioning this matter, Madam Sun’s supremacy was suppressed and became an amusement for Luo Qing Luan, instead.
Her own husband had been wanting to take in a younger wife. Madam Sun had been indignant and vexed about this matter, yet now, it’s been revealed by Luo Qing Luan in front of everyone. Her previous anger had not even dissipated, so now, how could she still sit still?
She got up as her face hardened and coldly retorted. "Madam Luo, this daughter of yours is truly quite impressive. Humph!" After she finished speaking, she brought Sun Yingxiang and left in a huff.
"Madam Sun......Madam Sun!"
Wang Xue Ru cried out in alarm and yelled quite a few times wanting to call back Madam Sun, yet the other person didn’t care and just left. She kept walking and vanished.
Wang Xue Ru calmed her face and turned around. "Qing Luan, how can these things be something that an unmarried girl like you can talk about? No manners at all! Once we return home, I’ll make sure to have your father properly scold you!"
Even though she’s been helped by Luo Qing Luan, Luo Qing Shuang didn’t possess the slightest bit of gratitude. On the contrary, she hated Luo Qing Luan for ruining her friendship with Miss Sun, so she followed coldly with, "Younger Sister, in any case, this is Fifth Prince’s Mansion, can you refrain from offending the guests I invited here? This is not the General’s Mansion, so I ask that you restrain your ’mistress disposition’."
She knew from the start that this older sister did not like her, but this mother and daughter pair became so hostile without taking into account persons nor circumstances at all. Luo Qing Luan more or less also felt a bit unwell. However, she was unwilling to let everyone look upon the General’s Mansion as a laughingstock, so she only smiled faintly, and did not pay any more attention to them.
Everyone observed everything while keeping their own counsel. They all felt that it’s a bit strange. This second Miss Luo was apparently nothing like what the rumors say. Not only was she not ugly, she was actually intelligent and eloquent. Instead, it’s the oldest Miss Luo who clearly was not only not grateful to her younger sister for having helped her, she even spoke to her coldly. Therefore, everyone became even more clear about something.
Just at this time, a human voice sounded from the distance. The multitude of women turned towards the sound and saw Nangong Chen wearing a purple official robe and pearl crest on his head. In addition, accompanying beside him was Luo Cheng, General Luo. They approached escorted by a crowd of servants.
Even though there were only women inside this pavilion, Fifth Prince carried an identity as the host and should meet his guests, whereas Luo Cheng visited to see his own daughter, so he could also be considered as half a member of Fifth Prince’s Mansion. There was nothing improper about their coming together.
"Greeting to Fifth Prince, General Luo." The multitude of womenfolk expressed their greetings in succession as required by propriety.
Luo Qing Shuang welcomed them even earlier and pulled at Nangong Chen’s hand in a cute and helpless looking manner before speaking coquettishly. "Chen, why are you here? Look, I’m wearing the hairpin you gave me today, does it look good?"
Nangong Chen drew her hand in and as he walked, he replied gently. "Yes, it looks good. You accompanied the guests for such a long time, are you tired? Does your body feel any discomfort? Don’t let it affect our son."
"No. I’ve merely been sitting down and chat a bit, that’s all. That’s right, my mother also came......"
She had not finished speaking when Nangong Chen already noticed Wang Xue Ru standing by the side. He had just started to nod his head neither energetically nor indifferently when he suddenly saw Luo Qing Luan standing behind her. He couldn’t help but become totally stunned.
Last time, when he accompanied Luo Qing Shuang to return to the bride’s home, he abruptly saw Luo Qing Luan’s true appearance. It practically startled him like she was a celestial being. He originally thought that she was a cousin of the General’s Mansion, yet didn’t expect that she was actually the fiancee that he just divorced. At that moment, he was so vexed that his intestines turned green*.
