Chapter 36A: Always Clever and Eloquent
These words were like iced water as they immediately penetrated everyone's heart and cooled them down. Each and everyone's expression became embarrassed.
Luo Qing Shuang's complexion changed even more precipitously, becoming as white as a piece of white paper.
This was originally the matter that she was most troubled about. She formerly thought that since she already married Nangong Chen, what had passed would become the past and at most, only a few people might notice.
How could she have imagined that she had been too happy and momentarily leaked this weakness through her words, allowing someone to immediately grab it. It was even more unexpected that this woman hadn't finished speaking before she faintly casted Luo Qing Luan a glance then turned to look at Luo Qing Luan and continued, "I am surprised that General Luo, whose courage is unrivalled, fails when teaching his own daughters. Not only did the oldest daughter get pregnant before she was married, even his main wife's daughter is more or less the same. No need to talk about how she seduces Fifth Prince, she even stabs her elder sister in the back. Your entire family truly can not be described with words."
Luo Qing Luan's expression turned cold as she looked towards that woman.
She originally only wanted peace and quiet, without any intention of provoking anyone. Who could have imagined? It's already good enough that she didn't provoke others, yet someone actually took the initiative to provoke her?
"Madam Sun, you can't make such irresponsible remarks….." Wang Xue Ru originally wanted to confront her on the spot, yet once she looked at the woman who was speaking, she discovered that it surprisingly was the wife of the military department's head envoy in charge of five cities. Wang Xue Ru immediately lowered her voice and then cut herself off.
This Madam Sun's face was brimming with arrogance while her entire body exuded luxuriousness, and a noble and graceful aura, as if none of the people at the scene was of any worth in her eyes. She took an indifferent glance at Wang Xue Ru. "What, you must be the oldest Miss Luo's mother, right, General Luo's second wife? Do you feel that I'm wrong?"
How could a concubine, Wang Xue Ru, dare to go against the wife of the military department's head envoy? She smiled obsequiously. "No, no……"
Madam Sun showed no mercy and cut her off. "Madam Wang, it's not like I want to talk about you, but you already failed to become a main wife, so forget about having your daughter become a consort. Otherwise, when you stir things up until your daughter became pregnant before marriage, so that His Majesty reluctantly had to bestow her to Fifth Prince as a concubine, even if she becomes an imperial concubine in the future, the past will cause her to be forever unable to lift her head."
After she finished speaking, she looked at her own daughter beside her. "Did you hear that, Yingxiang? A girl needs to be reserved and maintain dignity. You mustn't do those things which makes an exhibition of yourself. Otherwise, you father will beat you to death for sure."
"Yes, I'll keep Mother's instruction in mind."
Lecturing somebody to their face like that, this Madam Sun totally depended on her status as the most respectable person among those here. Otherwise, how would she dare to say these things?
Luo Qing Luan's complexion darkened upon hearing these words. If this woman only talked about Luo Qing Shuang and Wang Xue Ru, she could just ignore and forget about it. In any case, she didn't consider them to be her family members anyway. But to display authority, this woman unexpectedly turned to step on her head. She's not going to take it sitting down!
The atmosphere within the entire pavilion changed. No one praised the Luo Qing Shuang and Wang Xue Ru mother and daughter anymore. Each and everyone of them turned docile. Those who were daring reluctantly forced themselves to go fawn on Madam Sun. There were also those who praised that Sun Yingxiang was dignified and graceful, noble and magnanimous, quite taking after her mother.
"Madam Sun is indeed extremely strict in educating her children. No wonder she's the wife of the military department's lead envoy for five cities."
Suddenly, only a single young woman's voice could be heard. Everyone looked towards the voice before they noticed that it belonged to the uncommunicative girl who had been sitting behind Wang Xue Ru. It's just that her skin was as bright as the snow, and she was strikingly beautiful. For a moment, no one could figure out how there was one more of such a remarkable girl in the General's Mansion.
No one thought that she was in fact the general's second daughter. Who didn't know that Luo Qing Luan, the second Miss Luo, was tasteless and vulgar, as well as extremely ugly? Absolutely nothing like the young lady before them.
Surprise filled Madam Sun's eyes. Nevertheless, her daughter, Sun Yingxiang was the first to speak. "What, are you also someone from the General's Mansion?"
"No matter who I am, I naturally can't compare to Miss Sun's noble status. My birth mother has already passed away, so I can't compare even more with Madam Sun's strict family education, having brought up such an educated and well-balanced daughter like Miss Sun."
Once Wang Xue Ru heard Luo Qing Luan speak, she immediately berated her. "Qing Luan, how can you talk like that to Madam Sun? Still not apologizing to Madam Sun and Miss Sun? You really don't have any manners!"
Once everyone heard this, they simply couldn't believe it.
There was only one daughter in the General's Mansion named Luo Qing Luan. Could it possibly be this clever and bright young lady before them? But that's impossible. Hasn't it always been said that the second daughter was unbearably ugly. Why was it that now, not only was she not ugly, she even overtook the oldest daughter by quite a distance?
Although the status of those madams and young ladies at the scene could not be considered the most noble, who among them wasn't extensively experienced? With but a bit of thought, they already understood the reason well. It's very likely that the oldest Miss Luo envied her own younger sister, so she deliberately spread rumors to vilify her sister, right?
Madam Sun became even more disdainful as she said levelly. "Madam Luo don't need to scold the second Miss Luo. I also would like to hear what she wants to say when all was said and done."
Luo Qing Shuang actually became anxious and glared ferociously at Luo Qing Luan, afraid that she'll say those things in public. If Luo Qing Luan put her on the spot and made her lose face, she's going to have Father properly give her sister a lesson.
How could Luo Qing Luan not notice the gaze that turned towards her?
However, she simply didn't look at Luo Qing Shuang and instead, she smiled faintly towards Madam Sun and spoke mildly. "I don't dare. This younger one just doesn't understand how is Madam Sun able to educate Miss Sun into such a magnanimous and refined young lady, yet is unable to discipline your own son well? I heard that Mister Sun has always been reluctant to leave the pleasure quarters. He's already quite a few years older than twenty, yet not only does he have no scholarly achievement, he's extremely adept instead at taking in minor concubines."
Listening up to this point, Madam Sun's complexion already changed greatly, yet Luo Qing Luan was still not finished. "It seems that recently, the capital has been abuzz with cacophonous talk that Mister Sun was again infatuated with a certain courtesan, creating a big disturbance, right?"
