The old lady's tone was not very good, and the look she looked at Zi Yan was not very friendly either.
If Zi Yan hadn't been so anxious about the child, she wouldn't have been so flustered. She didn't even understand the matter, so she asked Wenying as soon as she left.
Now that the daughter-in-law has returned to her parents' home, she doesn't know how to talk about the child to her parents-in-law.
Zi Yan has always been observant and can make Fu Wenxuan keep her in his heart. That is because she can provide Fu Wenxuan with a lot of emotional value.
Take care of Fu Wenxuan's emotions, instead of being like the mistress of the Hou Mansion, who is arrogant, can't tolerate sand in her eyes, and has a high self-esteem.
Zi Yan knows her relationship with Fu Wenxuan. She is on the weak side, but she can achieve her goals by making good use of the weak side.
Seeing the old lady like this, Zi Yan immediately apologized: "Old lady, it's all my fault. I didn't understand the situation. She has the power to do everything in the Hou family. I thought it was because the lady didn't like me or the children. That’s why I’m anxious.”
The old lady's expression softened slightly, "I know you are also anxious, but Wen Ying will not care about Qingyu Pavilion's affairs. Wenxuan has discussed it with her, and Wenxuan will arrange everything about Qingyu Pavilion in the future."
"Now Wenxuan is on duty, I'll make the arrangements."
The old lady is also the daughter of a big family, and she is very familiar with managing affairs. But since she handed over the affairs to her daughter-in-law, she has not been in charge of it.
The daughter-in-law handled everything very well, and the old lady lived a very comfortable life.
Suddenly I started to manage trivial things, and I suddenly felt dizzy and exhausted. I don't know if it was because I was unfamiliar or because I was old.
She thought to herself that these matters would have to be left to her daughter-in-law to handle in the future. Worrying too much is not conducive to health.
Perhaps because of her irritability, the old lady felt a little unhappy when she saw Zi Yan. Such a person could give birth to an heir from the Marquis, but as a mother, Zi Yan was really not lovable.
As a mistress, I don't like such an enchanting woman.
And she really likes to complain and listen to her daughter-in-law. Yesterday she complained, and her son blamed her daughter-in-law. Today, she complained again, and she blamed her daughter-in-law.
The daughter-in-law felt aggrieved and had to return to her parents' home.
This has never happened before.
Wenying wanted to be filial and respectful to her mother-in-law, but now, she has admitted her mistake, and Wenying wants to return to her parents' home.
The old lady thought in her heart that her grandchildren should be taught by a daughter-in-law who was born in a big family, instead of a Yangzhou skinny horse who only thinks about seducing men and how to serve them.
She deceived her son into hiding the child's affairs for so long, otherwise, she would have been able to see her grandson a few years earlier.
For so many years, she had been worried about the issue of the heir of the Hou family, but as for Zi Yan, she clearly gave birth to an heir, but she coaxed Wenxuan to hide the child's affairs, making her anxious. She couldn't eat well or sleep well. I'm afraid that the Hou Mansion will be extinct.
The more the old lady thought about it, the more unhappy she became. She said to Zi Yan: "Wen Ying is the mistress of the Hou Mansion. She can't go anywhere in the Hou Mansion. Why can't she come to Qingyu Pavilion like you?"
"The child should also call Wenying mother. She endured it for the sake of the child, but you should not push it too far. You really think you can trample the dignity of the mistress under your feet."
"Your background is not good, but your child needs a mother with a good background and a good reputation."
He really took himself seriously and made Qingyu Pavilion transcend the existence of the Hou Mansion.
Tea is disrespectful, Anbu is not invited, you really do what you can.
Zi Yan's face turned pale due to the old lady's harsh words, but she endured it and saluted the old lady: "Yes, I have all remembered it."
Tears welled up in her eyes, and Zi Yan felt aggrieved. She had never suffered such aggrievement since she got Fu Wenxuan's heart.
When she came to the Hou Mansion, Zi Yan knew that she would be a thorn in the side, but she never thought that the first person to speak harshly to her would be the old lady.
After all, she was the one who gave birth to an heir for the Hou Mansion. As a mother-in-law, the old lady would definitely treat her, a great contributor to the Hou Mansion, kindly.
But no, the old lady disliked her origin.
Zi Yan gritted her teeth secretly, knowing that she was too anxious, so she pointed the finger at the mistress of the Hou Mansion, Fu Wenxuan's wife.
This is a woman who benefits from each other.
Most importantly, it looks very tolerable.
There is ample time.
Her disadvantage is that she comes from a humble background, while the other person is from a noble background, but she has a child, and the other person has been barren for so many years, so he probably cannot have one.
As long as you have three children, you can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai. There will always be a day when the situation becomes desperate.
The old lady was tired. When she saw the three children, she teased them for a few words and then left. She seemed a little cold, unlike before, where she kept saying, "My dear grandson, please kiss me dearly."
Zi Yan gritted her teeth, didn't that old woman even like her grandson?
The child is Zi Yan's strong support. If the old lady doesn't care about her grandson, Zi Yan's support will be useless.
This made Zi Yan feel a little panicked. She was previously confused by the way the old lady cherished her precious grandson, but now she is much calmer.
Sure enough, the Hou Mansion is not a good place to stay.
Zi Yan missed her old courtyard very much, where she was the master of the house, instead of being in the Hou Mansion, where so many people were looking after her.
Lixiang saw Nanzhi patrolling one store after another and asked, "Miss, aren't we going home?"
For Lixiang, the Fan family is home.
Her parents are at Fan's house and are rarely seen. The young lady can only see her parents when she returns home.
Nanzhi just said: "Wait until I see the shop and go back later."
Lixiang asked: "If the wife at home asks, how should I answer?"
To answer the question about the Hou Mansion.
Nanzhi said: "Just tell the truth."
Nanzhi never thought of covering up for Fu Wenxuan. I failed as a matron, but Fu Wenxuan failed even more as a human being.
Li Xiang immediately said: "Okay, I will explain it properly."
Tell the lady's grievances to the ladies at home.
The young lady was trying to avoid them, but they really went too far.
The lady is so pitiful!
Nanzhi inspected all the assets of the Hou Mansion. Now that she had the assets of the Hou Mansion in her hands, she was thinking about how to transfer the assets of the Hou Mansion to her own name.
And her dowry...
As for giving the dowry to Zi Yan’s daughter?
What are you thinking? You can gain merit by helping the poor and accumulate some shady virtue. What's the benefit of giving it to Zi Yan's daughter?
The dowry prepared by the Fan family for the original owner, why should it be given to others.
Even if something happened to the original owner, it was the Fan family who should have taken away the dowry instead of leaving it in the Hou Mansion.
If Fu Wenxuan wants to give Zi Yan and the child the best things, he will inevitably spend money like water. She doesn't care about Qingyu Pavilion's affairs, so she won't put money into Qingyu Pavilion.
Hey, what a pleasure! (End of chapter)
