As a clan wife, Madam Hou would naturally not bother to call a bastard wife to take care of things, because since ancient times, the position of the clan wife had always been passed down to the direct wife.

Yang Juan Er did not understand how things worked around here. Seeing that her mother had something to give her, she was happy and only felt that it would not be difficult to meet her handsome husband once again after fawning on Mu Rousang. Thinking about it this way, his thoughts went to Mu Jinzhi, who was still studying in Office of the Crown Prince.

”Juan Er?” Madam Hou's heart shivered, it seemed like Yang Juan Er had something on her mind.

”Fourth Sister, Mother is calling you!” Mu Rousang turned her head and realized that Yang Juan Er was sitting there in a daze.

”Ah, Mother! What else is there? ” Yang Juan Er did not dare to reveal the intentions of his lover in front of Madam Hou, because he would definitely be severely punished by him.

Madam Hou's face sank as he asked, ”Why didn't I call you out just now?”

Yang Juan Er secretly looked at her, and seeing that his mother was actually interrogating him, he quickly said: ”Didn't mother ask me to do that matter of receiving guests back home? My daughter had never done it before, so she was thinking about how my sister-in-law did it, but no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't remember. ”

Thanks to her cleverness, she remembered to use it as an excuse.

Madam Hou's expression relaxed, and he laughed: ”You may not remember, but your eldest sister-in-law just entered the room and is now a new bride. How could she be arranged to do such a thing?”

Mu Rousang pulled on the handkerchief at the side and could not help but retort in her heart: ”Your daughter has never cared about home before, at any rate, Su Waner was taught before she got married.

Yang Juan Er pestered the Madam Hou to ask some more questions, while Mu Rousang sat on the side and watched from the side. She did not want to face the Madam Hou directly, so as to not ruin her reputation, but Su Waner had always been a smart person, why did he do such a foolish thing this time? Doesn't seem like her? Thinking about it, her eyes slightly squinted, and secretly sized up Madam Hou from the corner of her eyes. Could it have been her idea?

At that time, Mu Rousang had watched the drama of her mother's filial piety all morning. Seeing that it was getting late, she went to pay her respects to the Matriarch Yang, and then left the Madam Hou's courtyard.

After greeting the Matriarch Yang, the old man did not keep her any longer. He only said that he wanted her to go and take a look at Su Waner, and that the two of them were definitely sister-in-law.

Mu Rousang thought for a bit before she left the courtyard. She then called a little girl over and said, ”Go report to Eldest Young Lady first, I'll be there shortly.”

He then said to the following spring scenery, ”You know where the family's food is. Didn't my family's sister-in-law send someone to send some Lotus Blossom Cake yesterday? Go and fetch some for Eldest Young Lady. ”

Not only did Mu Rousang bring the maidservants over, she only said that the little girl had rushed over to Su Waner's residence with quick steps to report this matter to him.

Su Waner was originally slouched on the soft couch, but upon hearing Yue Shuang's report, she couldn't help but say angrily: ”Is she here to laugh at me?”

The hot tea that Zhui Er had just poured for her was overturned with a pat of her hand, her small and tender hands leaving a red mark, causing Su Waner to be even more annoyed: ”Your little hoof is truly trying to kill me!”

Chai Er, Huan Er and Pei'er were initially talking to each other in the hallway, but after hearing the noise in the room, Huan Er pushed her away, pointing towards the room with her mouth, she said softly: ”Quickly, go take a look.”

Pei'er sneered: ”Wasn't it she who called Zhui Er over that day?”

Huan Er tugged at her, and said: ”Say less, Master in the house is not feeling good right now!”

Chai Er stood up and entered the house, seeing that Zhui Er was wiping his tears with grievance, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, Zhui Er was not willing to become a maid by herself, so she called for a little girl to come in and clean up the broken teacups, then took out a handkerchief and wiped Zhui Er's red hands and said: ”Why do you have to suffer, she's currently holding back her anger, even if I had to scold you, you wouldn't take it so hard, let her take this breath.”

Then he turned around and walked to the soft couch, pushed Su Waner who was lying on the side, and said: ”Eldest Young Lady, you still don't know Zhui Er's intentions. If it wasn't for the fact that she only has you in her heart, she wouldn't have listened to you so wholeheartedly.

Su Waner was furious, she did not truly blame Zhui Er. With the steps that Chai Er had given him, she sat up and said: ”Come, let me have a look.”

Zhui Er walked over while crying and showed her his hand. He said, ”You have wrongly accused this servant, who would know that in your heart, you only have the eldest young master. This servant's life is the young mistress's, so no matter what you do, you will listen to the young mistress.”

Su Waner saw that her hands were indeed burnt and her eyes were red from crying. After all, they grew up together, and their hearts softened a little.

”I'm not trying to annoy you. I'm just waiting for the Third Young Madam to come over.”

The slap mark on Su Waner's face had already turned dark purple, making her pale and delicate face seem even more frightening.

She touched her left cheek and felt that it was still swollen, she hated Yang Zizhi more in her heart, and wished that he would die outside.

Chai Er understood what she was thinking, and said: ”It just so happens that a few days ago, Young Mistress's house sent people over to send some good materials, I saw that the lakeside material was not bad, so I cut a few to make a handkerchief for Young Mistress to wear, I heard that there are many people wearing this outside.”
