Chapter 98
Dong Shu didn't hear the deep meaning in Xu Nuanwen's words, but she looked at the expressions of the other people around her, and still noticed the subtlety of the atmosphere between them.

Opening her mouth, Dong Shu finally took the initiative to look at Xu Nuanwen and asked, "What did my sister mean just now?"

With Dong Shu speaking, the atmosphere among them returned to normal.

Xu Nuanwen looked up at Xu Shiqiu, and seeing that her younger brother had no intention of stopping her, she looked at Dong Shu and said, "Sister and sister, the Xu family has already boarded a boat with the fifth prince's residence, do you understand this?"

"I understand." As soon as Xu Nuanwen finished speaking, Dong Shu nodded at her, "My husband told me about this."

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Nuanwen looked at her and continued: "The empress has no children, and the two generations of the Hu family have nothing to offer, so they can only think about working hard from the inner house."

After saying this, Xu Nuanwen seemed to sneer, and then continued: "The empress marrying her grandniece to Brother Qing is the first step. Use the relationship between in-laws to build a good relationship with Uncle Duan and the fifth prince's residence." is the second step.

No matter which prince will be enthroned in the future, Uncle Duan will be the younger brother of his father, so it is safe to marry Uncle Duan's grandson or grandson.It's just that there are many families staring at the descendants of Uncle Duan's family, and the Hu family didn't want to be too prominent to be noticed by their father, so they took a step back and chose Brother Qing.

Brother Qing, who is the grandson of Uncle Duan, is not only the grandson of Xu's parents, but also the uncle of the Fifth Prince.The Hu family saw that brother Qing was kind to the Hu family, and now the Hu family has found out that she is pregnant with a boy, so this time the Hu family took the initiative to contact the Fifth Prince's House, revealing that they would help your brother-in-law. "

Dong Shu didn't expect that there are so many twists and turns in these things. After listening to Xu Nuanwen's words, she blinked her crescent eyes, then looked at Xu Nuanwen and said, "Then what does the Hu family want to do?" What?"

"Of course they want to use their in-laws to keep the Hu family's prosperity and wealth. Now that Hu's daughter has married into the Xu family, once your brother-in-law succeeds in the future, if the next generation of the Hu family still doesn't have a man who can take the burden of the Hu family, Then the daughter of the Hu family must use her in-law relationship to send the daughter of the Hu family to your nephews."

When Xu Nuanwen talked about this, she looked quite unhappy.After all, the Hu family wanted to send their daughter to the fifth prince's mansion before.

It's just that the fool in her family has only her in his heart, otherwise the Hu family might have sent the concubine daughter into the fifth prince's mansion.

Xu Nuanwen didn't intend to tell her mother and younger brother about this, but Mrs. Xu and Xu Shiqiu guessed what the Hu family might have done after seeing Xu Nuanwen's expression.

After all, the Hu family likes to have daughters, and they prefer to marry well-educated daughters to someone they find useful.

But because the Hu family has a current queen, and the daughters of the Hu family are very good-looking, so the daughters of the Hu family are quite popular with these people.

The old lady Xu, Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu all understood, but Dong Shu didn't know this.

She is now thinking about what Xu Nuanwen said just now, and when she thinks that Hu, who has never met, may do such a thing, her expression is a little ugly.

When Xu Nuanwen saw her expression like this, she hurriedly said, "You don't need to be surprised, brother and sister. In big families, there are many such things. There are many superficially beautiful families, but in fact, the family relies on their daughters in the inner house. Only through the relationship can we maintain our current position.”

After saying this, Xu Nuanwen glanced at Xu Shiqiu next to Dong Shu, then looked at Dong Shu and continued: "Sister and sister, let me tell you, I will wait for your housekeeper in the future. If the Xu family's man is worthless, then An'an will guard her ancestral property and become a rich man, but she must never expect her daughter to work for the welfare of her mother's family after she gets married."

Xu Nuanwen watched Dong Shu just finished saying this, Dong Shu looked nervously at the mother-in-law sitting at the top, and after noticing Dong Shu's gaze, Xu Nuanwen waved her hand and said: "Sisters and sisters, don't worry, what you said back then It was my mother who told me." After saying this, Xu Nuanwen paused for a moment, then said with a sad expression: "Actually, it was my father who said this to me in the first place."

Thinking of her deceased father, Xu Nuanwen looked a little sad. As the only daughter of the Xu family's generation, Xu Nuanwen had been favored by the patriarch, General Xu, since she was born.

It was precisely because General Xu doted on Xu Nuanwen that he doted on her like she is now, and said whatever she wanted.

When she was not married before, she was protected by her father, and after she got married, she was protected by the husband of the fifth prince.

Even if the Xu family was defeated, the fifth prince still pampered and protected her.

Although the youngest son in the family is weak, the eldest son and the second son also protect her and pamper her. Xu Nuanwen feels that she is too lucky, how can others have such a happy life.

But even though someone has always pampered and protected Xu Nuanwen, it should be understood, Xu Nuanwen has always understood.

"Daughter's family is suffering. If you and I are like you, it's okay if your husband loves you. If your husband doesn't love you, and your mother-in-law and sister-in-law are bothering your daughter's family, you have to not only deal with the affairs of your husband's family, but also work for the welfare of your mother's family. It's really too hard." .”

Xu Nuanwen watched Dong Shu's words, and Dong Shu instantly understood what she meant.

"Sister, don't worry, I understand what you said." After saying this, Dong Shu looked at Xu Nuanwen and continued: "Since we already know what the Hu family wants to do, then let's just let it go on like this? "

"Otherwise?" Xu Nuanwen could see Dong Shu's nervousness, looked at her with a comforting smile, and continued: "Since you have stepped into this big dye vat, you must make some concessions in a timely manner. Some benefits , you know that others are plotting against you, but you still have to smile and let others plot against you."

What Xu Nuanwen told Dong Shu today was the truth that Xu Shiqiu and Xu Yanzhu had long understood.

But Dong Shu had never been exposed to these things before, and these things were too shocking for her.

"When you don't really reach the top and don't have absolute rights, these things are inevitable." Xu Nuanwen watched Dong Shu finish speaking, and seeing her sad expression, she smiled and said: "But you don't have to worry, Shiqiu will take good care of this house."

When Dong Shu heard Xu Nuanwen mention Xu Shiqiu, she looked at him shyly and smiled.

It's just that Dong Shu didn't expect that when she looked at Xianggong, Xianggong would also look at her at the same time.

Xianggong looked at her eyes full of doting and joy, and her cheeks couldn't help getting hot.

Sensing the eyes of everyone looking at her, Dong Shu was suddenly ashamed and didn't know what to do.

It happened that Yuan Xi was sleepy at this time, Dong Shu hurriedly regained consciousness, hugged Yuan Xi from Xu Nuanwen's arms to her own, and then called the nanny to carry Yuan Xi down to sleep.

After Yuan Xi was carried down to sleep, Xu Nuanwen told Xu Shiqiu that she would go to see Master Xuanling as soon as possible.

"Shiqiu, don't worry, as long as I let someone reveal the news that you have returned to Beijing, Master Xuanling will definitely take the initiative to see you."

Xu Nuanwen said firmly, and Xu Shiqiu who heard her words also felt that what she said made sense.

Seeing that the siblings had agreed on the matter, Mrs. Xu told her that she had received a lot of posts and planned to invite a few acquaintances as guests.

As soon as Mrs. Xu finished speaking, Xu Nuanwen frowned and said, "Mother, the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law haven't come to see you yet?"

Although the two elder brothers have separated from the younger brother, their mother is still there.

Mother has been back to Beijing for a few days now, but could it be that they haven't received any news yet?
The old lady Xu didn't expect that Xu Nuanwen would suddenly bring up this matter. She nodded to Xu Nuanwen, and then said indifferently: "It's good that they don't come to see me." Old lady Xu has experienced a lot, She doesn't want to tie her children and grandchildren like those ordinary old ladies.

She felt that her daughter, eldest granddaughter, youngest son, youngest daughter-in-law and youngest granddaughter were pleasing to the eye, so she naturally wanted to see them.

As for the others, they are out of sight and out of mind. She has lived to this day, but she doesn't want to suffer anymore.

Although the old lady Xu didn't say these words, Xu Nuanwen could tell from her expression.

Seeing that her mother didn't want to mention them more, Xu Nuanwen didn't mention them any more.

After Xu Nuanwen chatted and laughed about the people who had been friends with the Xu family before, and which ones they had secretly established relationships with, the old lady Xu had roughly figured out the current relationship network in the capital.

Dong Shu was confused, she had never memorized the relationship networks of various families, and she didn't know what kind of connection the in-laws of the officials and eunuchs above the court had.

So when the old lady Xu and Xu Nuanwen were talking vigorously, she took the initiative to look at Xu Yanzhu and said, "Will Jiang Han come today?"

"What is he here for?" When the third aunt mentioned Jiang Han, a trace of displeasure flashed across Xu Yanzhu's brows.

Seeing that the third aunt had been looking at her, Xu Yanzhu looked up at the third uncle, then took the third aunt's arm, leaned close to her ear and whispered: "Third aunt, I think there is something wrong with Jiang Han."

Xu Yanzhu saw that Dong Shu had just finished speaking. Before Dong Shu could speak, Xu Shiqiu, who Xu Yanzhu thought he hadn't heard her, spoke first, "Why didn't you say something about Jiang Han earlier?"

Upon hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, Xu Yanzhu immediately looked at him in embarrassment and said, "Why did Third Uncle eavesdrop on my conversation with Third Aunt?"

"I didn't eavesdrop. You just spoke to your third aunt in front of me. I have sensitive ears, so I heard it." Xu Shiqiu was not at all guilty of overhearing the whispers of his niece and wife.

Seeing Dong Shu glaring at him, she looked at Xu Yanzhu restrainedly and said, "The point now is not that I eavesdrop, but what you just said about Jiang Han is not right."

In fact, Xu Yanzhu didn't intend to tell these things to her family at first, but she had a flirtation with Dong Shu before, and now when the third aunt asked, she naturally said it out.

Now she is extremely regretful, and feels that she should not have said this just now.

Seeing that Xu Yanzhu pursed her lips tightly, Dong Shu looked at her hurriedly and said, "Yan Zhu, just speak up if you have anything, and we will help you find a solution together." After saying this, Dong Shu After thinking about it, he continued: "Don't worry, even if something happens, we will protect you."

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Yanzhu hesitated for a moment, but before she could speak, the old lady Xu who had been staring at her suddenly said, "Yan Zhu, you haven't consummated your marriage with Jiang Han yet?"

As soon as Mrs. Xu said this, Xu Yanzhu who was sitting on the chair was shocked immediately.

She looked at Mrs. Xu in panic, and wanted to speak, but she opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word in the end.

Seeing her expression like this, Dong Shu immediately exchanged glances with Xu Shiqiu.

Xu Nuanwen really didn't notice these things at first. Although she didn't have as many people as her mother, she would be mentioned by her mother. She stared at Xu Yanzhu carefully, but she didn't expect to see that she was still perfect body.

"Yan Zhu, you just said that Jiang Han has a problem, but is this a convenient thing?"

Xu Yanzhu didn't expect her aunt to ask herself, and now she feels ashamed and annoyed.

She wanted to let the third uncle leave, but she thought that the third uncle had been following the third aunt all the time, and she wanted the third aunt to be with her, so she was embarrassed and didn't know what to do.

Seeing Xu Yanzhu's expression like this, Xu Shiqiu took the initiative and said, "Yanzhu, don't think too much, just pretend that Third Uncle isn't here."

Although Xu Yanzhu heard Xu Shiqiu's words, she was not blind. A tall man like Third Uncle was sitting here, so how could she pretend that he was not here.

Seeing Xu Yanzhu's hesitant expression, Dong Shu said, "If you are too embarrassed to speak, Yanzhu, why not write it down and let us see it?" After saying this, Dong Shu saw Xu Yanzhu's expression loosen Finally, he continued: "I won't show it to your third uncle."
