Bestow glory to the king

Chapter 239 Young couple (2)
Yesterday the old matriarch sent Nanny Sang to inform her, meaning that she should not try to snatch the power of the Duke's mansion, but what the old matriarch said today made Xie Meng sneer in his heart. In the past, Canglan Court and the Duke's house had separate accounts, that is to say, they could not be the masters of Canglan Court in the past. Now that she has entered the door, she wants to use the management rights of Canglan Court to lure her and the eldest son to go scramble.

If she really has that ambition and makes her husband feel bad about her, they will just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.Such behavior is actually no different from exclusion.It can be seen from this that the husband's life in the Duke's mansion is indeed not very good. Xie Yan guessed in his heart that the old matriarch must not know that the husband is the son of Emperor Tianhe, but he must know that the husband is not Shen Ye's seed. The Taijun's attitude towards her husband is already known, it's not like a grandmother who treats her eldest grandson with estrangement in her words, and also calls her husband the eldest son, and doesn't even want to call her name.

After the old matriarch finished explaining the matter, all the female relatives in the hall began to talk, and Xie Meng sat on the side, drinking tea indifferently.

"I'm not afraid of my sisters' jokes. The second master went to my room yesterday, touched my belly and said, this baby must be a boy. If it's a boy, the old lady will reward me."

The person who said this was a beautiful woman, as gorgeous as a peony, with a small cinnabar mole on the corner of her mouth, wearing a bean paste-colored silk auspicious pattern cardigan, no waist, and a bulging belly. Xie Meng saw her yesterday. It is Aunt Ping, a concubine that the Second Master just took in at the beginning of the year. She is only 16 years old this year. The Second Master loves her very much. She stayed in her room for a month. The second master is even more like something for her, like a jewel like a treasure, one can imagine that if this fetus really gave birth to a boy, although it will be fostered under the name of the aunt, but in the future, he will finally have a backer, in the future The Shen family will not have to worry about it. After a few more years, they might be able to help the second wife manage the house like Aunt Lian and Aunt Lan.

The old lady always treats her daughter-in-law kindly, and she also likes those who are more lively. Sitting there like Xie Mo, who is dull and silent, the old lady doesn't want to talk too much. After listening to what Aunt Ping said, the old lady didn't He poked her forehead angrily and said:
"You! Let's talk about it after you are born. You know the rules in our mansion. They came here like this. How can I treat you badly?"

The rule of the Shen residence is that no matter if it is the wife of the main house or the concubine's aunt, as long as a boy is born, the old matriarch will allocate 1 taels from her private treasury to reward the person on the spot. This is probably what Aunt Ping said.

Xie Yu was drinking tea while observing the expressions of everyone present. Mrs. Changsun was serious and looked very similar to Xing's posture. She didn't care about these things. Wan's face was always smiling, but it just fell on Aunt Ping's belly. There was inevitably a bit of contempt in her gaze, while Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Dai didn't look at Aunt Ping at all. They seemed to be chatting about clothes and jewelry when they got together.

The old matriarch changed the subject, and suddenly said to her: "Sister Tong, you have to work harder, the eldest family is really not prosperous, and I hope you will bring me good news."

Xie Meng looked up and saw the old lady's eyes flickering, she couldn't understand the meaning of her words for a while, and then saw Wan and Zhang laughing with their veils covering their lips, Xie Meng blushed in embarrassment and stood up He leaned down to the old lady, Jun Fu, and whispered, "Yes."
