"Last time, it was all thanks to the Yang family's old lady." When Madam Wen mentioned her last dispute with her husband, she still looked displeased. "If it weren't for her guidance, I wouldn't have been able to turn this situation around so quickly!"

When Lady Wen brought the female servants of the Residence to welcome her, I felt that it was a little strange. It was originally just a relationship between the younger generation, so why would Lady Wen personally welcome me?

So it turns out that I'm basking in Grandmother's glory!

"Madam, you and Master Wen have always been in love with each other, and this matter has caused you to feel anxious. My grandmother was just accompanying Madam in a few casual words to ease your mood. In fact, Madam has already decided on this matter!"

It was often the sort of thing a husband and wife would quarrel with, depending on who could lower their head first. Madame Wen might not have thought it through in her anger at the time, but after staying at her aunt's house for a few days, she had definitely turned the corner. Since the entrance of Master Wen Cheng's house had already become a foregone conclusion, the most urgent matter now was no longer arguing with Master Wen about why he should behead Master Wen first and not discuss with Madam Wen, but who should he befriend with instead, and whether he could come into contact with his biological father and mother in the future, and whether or not he could bring his biological father and mother into the mansion. However, at this time, Lady Wen needed an opportunity to go back and forth. She couldn't let her pack her things and go home alone. Thus, the old master's attitude became the crux of the matter.

The most important thing was to persuade Master Wen to bring his mother back, Miss Wen.

Perhaps my words were too polite, or perhaps my words were too old and experienced. Lady Wen's gloomy face suddenly broke into a smile. "A child like you seems to understand everything!"

Even though I understood the irony, I pretended to hear a compliment.

"I didn't bring any good stuff with me last time. I was afraid that if people talked too much, it would ruin the friendship between our two families. Thus, I didn't even send a gift of thanks, leaving the matriarch exhausted from not eating at all." After posting a few times, Matriarch He did not reply. It just so happens that you came this time to help me bring something to your grandmother, and told her to be at ease, because I won't let those people succeed! "

Now that Madame Wen had regained her usual shrewdness, her face couldn't help but twitch with a diplomatic smile.

"Aunt, please don't blame me!" I stood up and saluted. "Actually, the reason why my grandmother didn't reply back for a long time wasn't because of anything. It's just that there are too many things in the family and there's something wrong with it. He was only just able to move around in the fields. As for the gift, I can do it for my grandmother. "My grandmother always does things according to her heart. It's really because of Madame Chong Zhong that she is willing to interfere, not because of this money. If I bring her back, Grandmother would be unhappy."

"Good child, what you said makes sense!" Lady Wen pulled me onto the brick bed and nodded with a smile. She didn't bring up the matter of the gift again and asked, "Doesn't that mean your mother is very busy?"

It's here! It's here! I expected to ask that question just before I went out!

I seriously nodded. "You should know that I have an aunt who is pregnant at home. My mother had made the decision to bring in one of my father's concubines, and in the end, these people made a ruckus for a few days. Everything had to go through my mother's hands, and at night, my mother had to go to my grandmother's room to tend to her ailments.

As I expected, Lady Wen's eyes lit up the moment she heard about the lady in the outer chamber.

"Your father has a pregnant aunt? Your mother took the initiative to receive your father's room entrance? "

I smiled and nodded. "That aunt was taken over by my mother last year. The entrance to the outer chamber was arranged by mother herself, and that aunt even brought three of her younger brothers in. "

The smile on Lady Wen's face deepened as she smiled and nodded. "Your mother has indeed been too tired these past few days. No wonder she didn't even attend Lady Xu's birthday!"

Mrs. Xu's birthday post was handed over to me, but at that time, my mother was already locked in the courtyard by me, so I could only send a mother to return to my mother's home with difficulty.

Seeing that Madam Wen had assumed that I had hinted for her mother to be ill from the entrance of the outer chamber, I smiled to myself and nodded in relief, "Mother has lost a lot of weight recently. I'm afraid that I won't be able to attend the banquet for some time. Or else I wouldn't have come out alone to send a box to Sister Wen. "

"It should be so! This is how it should be! " Lady Wen smiled and nodded, looking extremely pleased.

The Wen family and the Yang family were the same family of merchants, and Madam Wen and her mother only had one daughter, so it was hard to avoid comparing the two. At first, Mrs. Wen was upset because Master Wen had returned with a new son, but it was also because she was different from my mother, who was still standing there unmoving. Grandmother and I had talked about this while we were talking. Although things had changed, it wasn't hard to understand the overflowing happiness of letting Madam Wen know that her mother, who had always been luckier than her, was far worse off than she was. Furthermore, her husband had secretly given birth to three sons.

Women are all gossipy creatures, I'm afraid that it won't be long before my mother will be able to become 'famous'. I don't need to spend so much effort explaining why my mother can't come out for social meetups.

Raising an inner chamber was a debilitating affair for a man, but the matriarchs of these inner chambers, without exception, deeply hated concubines, especially those who were kept outside by their husbands, Jin Zifu. As long as I managed to get some information out and say that this Madam from the outer chamber was very powerful, she would immediately intimidate my mother the moment I entered the door. Even a mother who hadn't come out for three to five years wouldn't suspect that my mother was locked up in her house, even if it was just a talk after dinner.

According to the three children's character, even though Aunt Mo's eyes weren't too sharp, she could still be considered a reasonable person. If there comes a day when I want to leave, I might as well leave the house to her for the time being. In the end, this family still had to fall into the hands of their brothers, and the internal affairs of the family would eventually be handed over to their eldest brother's wife. At that time, Aunt Mo would be nothing more than a concubine, whose reputation would not make sense, and it would not be wise to openly seize power from the hands of her own son's wife, while her mother would not have a biological son, and she would also have a capable and astute Aunt Mo watching from the side.

What she said today was first to create a situation for Aunt Mo to take over her family's rights, and secondly to scrape a hole for her, telling the world of this Aunt's methods. If one day she really did lift a finger, it would be impossible for her to speak and work as a proper lady.

Madam Ye was in a great mood. She pulled me along and asked me a few questions about the outer chamber and my younger brothers. I answered them one by one as per the truth. Hearing me say that all three of her brothers were very outstanding, especially her eldest brother who was good at reading and acting like a gentleman, made her feel a wave of disappointment. After asking a few questions about my grandmother and mother's bodies, I said that I must take good care of them. Old people are the most prone to getting sick in the fall, and it's not easy for them to recover, so you can ask her for some medicinal herbs. If she finds some free time, she will definitely go and see my grandmother and mother and instruct them to send me to Miss Wen's courtyard.

I knew that Mrs. Wen was anxious to have a few intimate words with her mother, so I bowed and followed her.

Outside the inner room, Wen Chengzu was still standing behind the door writing. When he saw me leaving, he raised his head and sweetly called "Big Sister Yang".

Since I didn't hit a smiling person, I naturally wouldn't make things difficult for a kid like him. I nodded at him with a smile, then took out two gold coins from my pocket and placed them on the table in front of him.

Glancing at it, I caught a glimpse of the slightly yellowish writing paper that was unique to the Haven. The words on it were beautiful, and it was Lady Wei's hairpin, little kai.

Beautiful then, completely charming manner, completely lost the true color of men.

I sighed inwardly. Such an intelligent child, yet he was destined to fall into the trap of the inner chamber. Wouldn't it be lamentable?

When the boy in front of me saw me looking at him, the corners of his mouth curled, and his calligraphy became more and more beautiful.

It was a fake name that actually harmed such a beautiful and intelligent child!

"Miss Yang, let's go quickly!" Mrs. Wen's mother urged me on. I gave the child one last look and followed her to Miss Wen's yard.

Miss Wen was standing in the warm pavilion with her maidservants to count the dowry. When she saw me enter, she hurriedly put down the booklet in her hands and invited me to sit in the main room. "I've been waiting for you for quite a while, and you've already changed several pots of tea. What did you say to my mother?"

I picked up what I had said to Lady Wen and told her a few important words before changing the subject. "You don't have enough dowry? And you still need to do it yourself? "

I had an ulterior motive for telling Lady Wen, but there was no need for me to explain these family matters to Miss Wen.

"You little hoof with a beard in your mouth!" Miss Wen lightly pinched my cheek: "See if you don't have a nanny more formidable than your mouth in the future!"

The two of us joked around for a while, and Miss Wen also put on a grateful face. "If it wasn't for my sister, my mother wouldn't have come back so soon!"

"Elder sister is being too polite!"

I had to repeat what I had said to Madame Wen.

Miss Wen only said a few words. Currently, the biological parents of ancestor Wen Cheng no longer bothered her, and her mother had already accepted the Heir and turned to ask if I was at home these days, why don't you come and visit her.

Since I didn't want to discuss my own affairs, I naturally wouldn't pry into the affairs of others.

"I know your family has a spice shop. I made this from an ancient book. Although it is not as fragrant as the avocado on the market, it still lasts a long time. If you don't mind, you can take it!" I'm afraid you'll need more of it in the future. This is a recipe, and I've given it to your family. "

At my words, Green Buckner took two bottles of yellow incense out of the small box he carried with him, and I took a folded piece of paper out of my sleeve and handed it to her.

The two of us chatted idly for a while, and then she took me to see the Jiang sisters, the Xu sisters and the Xue sisters' gifts. The two of us joked about their gifts, and I told them that we still had patients at home, so we had to go home early.

Thinking that she had been busy counting things the day before the wedding, and obviously had other things to do, she did not ask me to stay, but smiled and said goodbye to Madame Wen.

"Is Qiu Yu your servant girl?"

At such a time, it was rather strange for Qiu Yu to not help her mistress pack her things in the yard but to wait for me at the door.

Miss Wen's expression was somewhat dejected.

"Mother left her at home."

When she thought of her words and how she ran around randomly just now, she lacked some discipline. If she married Miss Wen in the future, it would be hard to say if she could help. If Miss Wen and Young Master had any conflicts, it would only worsen it for her.

Although Madam Wen's actions were quite impressive, she definitely had sincere plans for her daughter. This time, she left this autumn rain in the mansion and did not marry Miss Wen.

But in the end, she had grown up with Miss Wen. It was only natural for Miss Wen to be reluctant to part with her.

After bidding farewell to Lady Wen, she repeatedly told me that even if Miss Wen married me, I would still have to come often to play. She smiled and warned me to be careful on the road, and also sent one of her mother to follow our carriage back. When she saw me enter the mansion and report back to her, she and Miss Wen personally sent me back to the Second Gate to meet me in the carriage.

On the way, he felt that the speed of the car was exceptionally slow.

It wasn't easy for me to get to the second door. Just as I got off the car, I saw a young maid with tears all over her face, standing at the door as if she was looking for something.

I know this young maid, she is the young maid in Grandmother's courtyard.

Seeing me get off the car, she hurriedly surrounded me and pulled at my sleeve while crying, "Miss …" Miss … Not good! "Madam, she …"

When I heard the words "Madam", I deeply felt that things were not going well and hurriedly gave a look to Mother Song who was beside me.

The mother that came with the Wen family was either blind or she could not say anything in front of her!

Mother Song quickly went up and yelled at the young maid, pulling her to the side.

Of course, being sent by Lady Wen wasn't a stupid person. That mother came up to pay her respects with a smile and said that I still had to hurry back, so I quickly fished out a two dollar bill from my waist purse and handed it to her before ordering Lan Lingyun to send her out.

"What the hell is going on?"

What was wrong with this one and this one? Why did they have to embarrass themselves!

Mother Song's expression was also a bit ugly. She came over and leaned on my ear, and whispered the cause of the matter to me.

How could this happen!?

This was truly a rainy night!

"Go and call a few strong and sturdy women over, then call those idiots outside the mother's courtyard over as well!" I was busy giving orders to Mother Song before bringing the two maidservants to run to Grandmother's courtyard in a fluster.

Who in the world could have carried the letter in while I was heavily guarded? Who would tell her such news?
