After rebirth, the violent prince waited online for the princess to reconcile and divorce.

Chapter 16 Decentralization
"The eldest daughter-in-law was born as a merchant, so she is not suitable. Yu'er, you are the legitimate daughter of the Zhongding family, so you are quite handy with these things."

Xie Lingyu stood up in fear: "Yu'er has only scratched the surface. It's okay to talk about some theories. If you really ask me to give it in the palm of my hand, I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

She wasn't lying.

Before getting married, she really didn't know much about these things.

Her mother is good at wielding swords and swords, but she herself is not very good at this aspect. Her grandma does it and her mother reviews it.

Therefore, her mother prepared a capable nun for her, but did not teach her much in this aspect.

It's just that grandma has been ill recently and is in bed recuperating, so she didn't follow her into the Marquis' mansion.

The things in my mind now are all learned through many twists and turns in the Hou Mansion in my previous life.

In her previous life, on the second day after she got married, the old lady asked her to manage the general affairs of the house.

She didn't shirk.

This made Mrs. Song dissatisfied, and she secretly tried to make things difficult for her, but on the surface she pretended to be a good mother-in-law.

Even with the help of my grandma, I still suffered setbacks.

During that time, she had doubts about her abilities.

This time, she would definitely not do such a thankless thing again.

Mrs. Song couldn't believe it. She had just received the news and thought it was a lie. She didn't expect that the old lady would actually surpass her and let Xie Lingyu take power?
This is just pressing her face to the ground and grinding it!
What would other lords and ladies from aristocratic families think of her? !
Xie Lingyu originally looked down upon her mother-in-law because of her arrogant family background. If she were to take power again, her life in the mansion would definitely not be easy in the future.

No!

She couldn't let Xie Lingyu get his wish!
"Yu'er is young. Even if she has studied before, she can't manage such a big Marquis Mansion alone!"

Old Madam: "It's okay, you can learn if you don't know how. Aunt Zhang can help Yu'er in the future."

Mrs. Song: "How can that be done? Granny Zhang is the most capable maid around the old lady. She should serve the old lady by her side."

"I have other maids to serve me."

"That's not possible. Yu'er has just entered the palace, how can she convince the public? Madam, please think about others!"

What Song said was very clear.

The eldest daughter-in-law is not good enough, and neither is Xie Lingyu. The other two widows in the house are widows with three or four bedrooms. They are immersed in grief and have no intention of taking care of the house.

She was the only one left.

Mrs. Song straightened her back and met the old lady's gaze without any fear.

It was supposed to be her!

Asking her daughter-in-law to take care of the house, no matter which daughter-in-law she is, is a slap in her face, and she cannot agree to it!
The old lady glanced at Mrs. Song with disgust.

"What my mother said is absolutely true. Yu'er is too stupid to be in a position of responsibility."

Xie Lingyu said softly.

For the first time, Xie Lingyu felt that the messy Song family was so pleasing to her eyes, and it was not in vain for her to have someone send the news.

If she just said it with her mouth, the old lady would definitely not let it go easily.

But with the Song family here, that's not necessarily the case.

Xie Lingyu slightly curled her red lips and watched the two fighting with a smile.

Mrs. Song came uninvited, and Xie Lingyu arrived late. Coupled with the sultry weather, the old lady was originally upset.

Now Xie Lingyu keeps declining, and the Song family presses harder and harder.

"Forget it! From today on, you two will manage the house together."

The old lady slapped the table and made the final decision.

Xie Lingyu knew that this was the lowest level of acceptance for the old lady.

A few people chatted casually for a few more common things, and then Xie Lingyu bowed and left.

Mrs. Song was both happy and angry that Xie Lingyu was on an equal footing with her.

As soon as she stood up and was about to leave, the old lady scolded her.

"After all these years, you still haven't made any progress or gained any brainpower!"

Being scolded suddenly, Mrs. Song shrank her neck.The old lady was stern. She was usually afraid of her. She was so angry about Xie Lingyu's palm just now that she dared to speak like that.

"You yourself should have been involved in the general affairs of the house a long time ago, and you also know what the situation in the Hou Mansion is now. Think about it carefully, what does the Hou Mansion need most now? What does Huai'er need most?"

The old lady spoke earnestly and thoughtfully.

"It's fame! It's money!"

"With the Xie family, fame is already in hand. Even if those civil servants look down on the Hou Mansion, they will still think highly of Huai'er. And money, of course, still needs to be spent slowly."

Mrs. Song murmured: "But didn't you promise that Mrs. Xie's dowry would not be confiscated?"

"Yes." The old lady's expression remained unchanged, "But when things like money are messed up, who can tell clearly?"

"On your side, you can go directly to someone else's private treasury to get it without fear of being penalized! Fortunately, Yu'er is a sensible person. Otherwise, if a commotion breaks out, you will lose all the face of the Hou Mansion!"

"You will assist Yu'er during this period. From now on, the Hou Mansion will still be in charge of her. Don't worry, Yu'er is kind and will definitely respect you as a mother-in-law!"

Song was educated a lot.

After walking out of Guzhuyuan, Nanny Zhou asked softly: "Madam, do you really want to give up the palm feed?"

Mrs. Song snorted softly.

"how is this possible!"

What the old lady said makes sense, but it is just the old lady's own imagination.

Xie Lingyu had just left the cabinet, how could he be a better housekeeper than her?

She was just young and made some small mistakes.

After so many years, she is no longer the same person she was before.

"To take charge of Zhongfu means to hold the entire Hou Mansion in your hands. Now that my son is the heir apparent, the Hou Mansion should be mine!"

Thinking of Xu Yinghuai, Song was very excited.

The old lady is not in good health, so she can't care too much, and she shouldn't care so much!

Return to Zhilan Courtyard.

He Yue was a little puzzled: "Why do you want to shirk, Madam? Whose daughter-in-law can feed you in the palm of her hand as soon as she enters the house, or go past Madam Hou? I think the old Madam is very fond of you, Madam!"

"Yes, that's right, and Mrs. Hou has a deep prejudice against you, Madam. What if we don't give our yard money for charcoal fires, don't give us food, and let us fend for ourselves and rot and stink?"

Taoyue followed and wailed.

Xie Lingyu was a little helpless: "Taoyue, you should read less of the talk book. You have said everything. Who is the richest in the house now?"

Taoyue stuck out her tongue: "Of course it's you, madam!"

"That's it. If you don't have charcoal fire or food, go buy it. If you don't have money, go to the treasury to get it."

Taoyue: "Yes!"

Xie Lingyu sighed and shook his head.

He Yue and Lu Yue can both live a good life outside the house, but Taoyue, if she is allowed to leave the house like this, she is afraid that she will be fainted and run away as soon as she steps out of the house.

This is why both Xie Lingyu and He Yue Luyue talked about leaving the mansion, but not to Tao Yue.

I really don't worry!
She turned to look at He Yue.

"He Yue, you also said that there has never been a person in Shengjing who handed over a gift in the palm of his hand upon entering the palace. Then why did the old lady do this? What is the reason why she would let the bride manage such a large Marquis' mansion? If I really go beyond Madam Hou's control Home, what will I face?"

He Yue hesitated: "I will do this only if I have greater interests! Madam will face Madam Hou's anger, and other aristocratic families may also think that the Xie family girls are power-hungry, and the second and fourth young ladies will also be affected."

Xie Lingyu nodded.

The fourth sister was young, so she was not affected for a while.The two younger sisters had already exchanged birthday notes, but the other sister found an excuse to regret the engagement.

It was she who missed the second sister.

The reason why she was given the gift in the palm of her hand was not just because the old lady was old and the Song family was unable to handle the big responsibility.

The old lady is one of the few people in the Hou family who treats her well.

But her kindness also has a purpose, but Xie Lingyu doesn't know what the purpose is yet.
