"It's in my name. I am his mother and have the responsibility to educate him. If my eldest sister-in-law really likes Min'er, why not adopt the child into your name." Xie Wanyu raised her eyebrows and said.
Her tone became increasingly aggressive.
No matter how calm Xue Xuening was, her expression still changed.
She really wished she could directly educate the child herself, but for the sake of her child's future and her own future, she could only swallow the words that came to her lips.
She couldn't feel her nails digging into her flesh, and she clenched her fists tightly.
Of course Mrs. Xiao would not allow Xue Xuening to raise her children personally. Although she was the biological mother, the character of the Xue family was worrying, so she would not rest assured.
"I won't let him walk around in the future, but you can't hit the child again." After Mrs. Xiao finished speaking, she looked at Xue Xuening, "You should go out less in the future. If you don't take care of the child well, I'll take care of you."
"What does it have to do with me?" Xue Xuening said bitterly.
Xie Wanyu smiled slightly. She was very satisfied with the current result. It was estimated that it would be difficult for Xue Xuening to see her child in the days to come.
Mrs. Xiao looked at Xie Wanyu, "The child is still young, you have to tell him properly."
"Yes, I know about grandma. Because I was often beaten by my father when I was young, I felt that a filial son was born under the stick, which made grandma worried." Xie Wanyu lowered her head and said.
Mrs. Xiao was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Xie Wanyu to change the subject so quickly. She thought she was right just now. Why is she so easy to talk to now?
In the end, this matter did not affect Xie Wanyu's interests.
However, everything started because of Xue Xuening. It is estimated that Mrs. Xiao will be more wary of her.
The next day.
Xie Wanyu prepared gifts and some commonly used things, and was about to go find the miracle doctor.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jing came in person.
"Won't the Marquis go to court? How come you have time to come to my place?" Xie Wanyu asked.
Xiao Jing placed a printed invitation on the table, "There will be a flower banquet at the eldest princess's house. It is written on it that you must attend."
Xie Wanyu opened the invitation and saw that it was not only Xiao Jing's name, but also hers.
"I'll come to pick you up at noon." After that, he said uneasily, "You'd better not make any mistakes. The eldest princess is not someone we can offend." After that, he left in a hurry.
Xie Wanyu put down the invitation.
Princess Lingyun was so easy to deal with because she was not a direct relative of the emperor after all, but the eldest princess was different. She was my elder sister and the late emperor's most beloved eldest daughter.
"Madam?" Zhu Fang was still holding the sandalwood box.
"Put it down. Let's go to the eldest princess's mansion first, and then go to the miracle doctor tomorrow." Xie Wanyu sighed.
She has been a lonely ghost for so long, and she also knows that Xue Xuening has a good relationship with the eldest princess. Since she became a widow, she has tried every means to make friends with dignitaries, but the eldest princess cannot be dealt with with just a little gold, silver and jewelry.
Xue Xuening is also a good socializer. She quickly figured out the eldest princess's preferences and directly gave her several excellent-looking souvenirs. She immediately became the eldest princess's guest.
Without Ling Yun as a fake best friend, it would be a good choice to become the lackey around the eldest princess.
Xie Wanyu fiddled with the invitations. It seemed that the eldest princess suddenly held a flower banquet and it had something to do with Xue Xuening.
The arena was set up, but if she didn't go, how would the show be performed?
Zhufang and Aunt He put away the things they had packed away. Pei'er made a pot of tea for Xie Wanyu with a clear face, "Madam, the new clothes for autumn have been delivered. Which ones do you plan to wear?"
"Of course it's this one." After hearing this, Zhu Fang took out one.
Xie Wanyu looked over. Probably in order to flatter the Hou Mansion, the shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop specially made a dark purple narcissus-patterned skirt for Xie Wanyu. The collar and cuffs were embroidered with gold thread, which looked very luxurious.
She always dressed in a low-key manner, and she had never worn such clothes.
Seeing that Xie Wanyu was silent, Zhu Fang smiled and said, "Madam, there must be a lot of people attending the eldest princess's banquet. We must not be left behind."
"The eldest princess is the protagonist, and I'm afraid that wearing this outfit will overshadow her." Xie Wanyu is still very low-key.
Zhufang and Pei'er looked at each other, and finally they looked at Aunt He together.
After all, Aunt He is Xie Wanyu's wet nurse. Sometimes, Xie Wanyu can still listen to what she says.
Nanny He walked up to Xie Wanyu and said, "Madam, the shopkeeper of the clothing store made you such a dress because the one in the west courtyard made a gold-embroidered underskirt. It is said that in the sunshine It can shine brightly."
The boss knows how to wink. After all, Xie Wanyu is Mrs. Hou, so she cannot let Xue Xuening overshadow her.
"Okay, then wear this suit." Xie Wanyu relaxed. She was still Mrs. Hou after all, so she couldn't dress too shabbily.
Only then did Zhufang and Pei'er smile and change Xie Wanyu's clothes.
Her skin was as good as snow, and with the help of this outfit, her appearance became even more gorgeous. After the solemn makeup faded away, Xie Wanyu's original appearance was undoubtedly exposed, and she was extremely beautiful.
"Madam, you are so beautiful." Zhu Fang admired from the side.
Pei'er glanced at Xie Wanyu, then lowered her head in shame.
With her beauty, she was really fooled by lard at first, and she actually wanted to get a piece of the pie from Xie Wanyu.
At the same time, I feel that Xiao Jing is in the midst of blessings and does not know how to be blessed.
At noon, Xiao Jing was waiting for Xie Wanyu in the carriage.
After seeing her, he was stunned for a while without saying anything. He was also very puzzled. He obviously felt that Xie Wanyu was getting bolder and more reckless, but she was getting more and more beautiful.
So much so that he couldn't bear to lose his temper.
Xie Wanyu didn't notice what was going on in his mind, "Why are you looking at me like this, Master Hou?"
"It's so flamboyant." He was stunned for a moment, said these words angrily and stopped looking at her.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis." Xie Wanyu was used to his way of speaking and didn't care at all.
When there is no place for that person in your heart, nothing he does can make you have any emotional fluctuations.
Soon we arrived at the princess's mansion.
The housekeeper was greeting her at the door with a few capable girls.
Xie Wanyu was walking towards the mansion with Xiao Jing when she saw Xue Xuening following quickly and standing in a row with Xiao Jing.
Her clothes today were sparkling and brilliant, and she successfully attracted Xiao Jing's attention.
"Sister-in-law's clothes look very nice today." He whispered into Xue Xuening's ear.
Xue Xuening couldn't hide the smile on her lips and tidied her hair proudly, "Thank you, Lord Marquis."
At this time, Lin Yanran came over and was very happy after seeing Xie Wanyu. "Wanyu!" She waved and then said hello to Xiao Jing, "Wish you all the best, Lord Marquis."
"Master Hou, Yanran and I are going to reminisce about old times." Xie Wanyu said.
In front of outsiders, Xiao Jing was still very decent. He smiled and nodded, and then went to say hello to his colleagues.
Xue Xuening turned her attention to Xie Wanyu again, "This must be the first time for my younger siblings to come to the Princess Mansion, right?"
