”That's exactly the reason. Servant said it, please don't be angry Madam, this is easier to fool.”
Shen Mama did not know Mu Rousang's personality. After eating hers and taking hers, she was afraid that Mu Rousang would make all of them puke.
”That's true. A village girl, not to mention those valuable antiques, even if she were to get some pretty colored porcelain or outdated brocade, she would still be extremely happy!”
The more Madam Hou spoke, the more he felt that this marriage was worthwhile, and that it was better than marrying Huang Lian. Although he could hold onto Huang Lian, because they were nephew's wives, he couldn't go overboard, so he might have to split up some of his family property to let her live.
”Madam, there's no need for you to worry about this matter. I'm afraid that there will be a day when Second Young Master will eat the head of the steak when we enter the restaurant.”
Shen Mama's words had touched upon Madam Hou's heart. Forget about everything else, once this village girl marries into the main wife, Yang Zixuan would give up on marrying into a rich and noble family, and would not be able to help with this marriage. Although she had a big brother from raising child, even if she were to pass the examination, she would not be able to get a good position.
”Needless to say, when spring breaks, I will help my son propose a good marriage and help Juan Er look at each other in detail. This way, the two siblings would be able to support each other.”
As for Yang Zixuan? It was to snatch the fat from her hands from the bastard, who did not come out of her stomach. It made his look down on him in all sorts of ways, wishing that he would fall into the mud.
The Shen Mama knew what she was thinking so she said it as she continued, ”Don't be so angry, Madam. You still have to wait for New daughter-in-law's tea in the future, until you carry your grandson!”
”That's right. We'll do as you say. However, I'll have to stop him first. Also, I'll send someone to report to the madame.”
When Shen Mama heard this, she hurriedly said, ”Aiyo, your servant's good wife, you better not say it now!”
Madam Hou had been pampered since she was young, if not for the few capable marriage concubines by her side, she would have been eaten up by them. After all these years of training, she had slowly turned into a fine girl.
”You're right, the old lady values her family the most, why don't we wait until we change the Geng patch before reporting this matter to the old lady? We don't know how this little bastard said it to the Marquis, but he actually said it to the old marquis who values his family the most.”
”Was it a lie?”
When he was young, Shen Mama could still see the hatred in Yang Zixuan's eyes, but as he grew older, he became more reserved, and was truly unable to see through his thoughts.
As long as he doesn't marry a lady from a noble family and no one comes to fight for my son's family property, I'll just pretend that I don't know anything and go back and ask around to find out how he mentioned it to Master Hou. Then, I'll return to the old mistress' place.
Shen Mama laughed: ”Madam is too anxious, the old lady did not say that she is going to the temple to eat and drink on February 2nd, I am afraid she will not be back until the end of April.”
”That's true. I might as well stop him for a bit, delay him until the second day of the second month, and then post Geng to him. When the madame asks again, I can just get rid of him.”
The more Madam Hou talked, the happier she became. When she saw the door curtain sway, she knew that Huang Lian had come in.
Upon hearing this, she felt that she was a person who was the best of the best, ”Aunt, it's just that Niece has remembered the worries that my parents had had, and after thinking about how my Aunt had doted on me all these years and enjoyed the prosperity, my life has been worth it.”
Hearing that, Madam Hou was happy, and scolded jokingly: ”What nonsense are you saying, my son's good days are not too bad, today Aunt will stand up for you, and insisted that he marry you as his principal wife. In the end, he's my niece, so it's only right that I look for a good marriage for you.
Her father was someone to be trusted by the crown prince, and he was also the head of the Liu family. No one dared to gossip about her, not to mention that she was an orphan girl with no property and was only worth a few acres of land.
”Thank you for your trouble, Aunt!”
Huang Lian couldn't do it either. With her parents not here, and her relatives not able to get close to her, if it wasn't for Madam Hou who brought her here to raise her, she would have been eaten up by her black-hearted relatives long ago.
At this time, Yang Juan Er came in with a smile on her face. She was wearing a fiery red brocade robe with snow fox skin at her waist.
Seeing that, Madam Hou hurriedly called her over, his hands caressed her small hands, and asked: ”Did you freeze it? You are all dead people, yet you let the girl run away like this. It's cold now, so you can't cut her delicate skin. ”
Seeing that no one was holding a warm sleeve or a warm hand stove, she shouted angrily towards the Wives outside: ”Men, drag these disrespectful little girls out and beat 20 boards again. If you chase them out, then go pick 6 other girls to cover up for me.”
When the time came, Yang Zixuan saw the few girls kowtowing and begging for mercy.
His handsome eyebrows creased slightly. He thought for a moment before moving to the side and standing far away.
