Several young masters who were good friends with Zhang Jie injured Huo An because of their booing. The parents brought their children to apologize to Huo Erhuai and Yang.
Because of the British public's face, I apologized.
But to apologize to a common fisherman, the nobles were really embarrassed.
No, as soon as Mr. Wu stirred up trouble, several women gathered around Ms. Wu and complained.
"You are also generous. Even though your son's position as heir apparent has been robbed, you still help with the affairs with a smile as if nothing has happened."
"No, this banquet was bigger than the battle when your father-in-law was granted the title."
"Common people are just common people. They insist on crowding into the rich and powerful. No, they can't understand people. It's a joke."
"The two people you welcomed back to your home probably don't understand what they were taught by such a family. I'm afraid you still have to worry a lot."
Wu felt relieved after hearing this.
"It's not as bad as you said. Although they grew up in a commoner's family and their etiquette is a bit lacking, I think they can just hire some nuns to teach them."
A woman then said: "But I heard that they brought in more than a dozen servants from outside and didn't ask you to arrange any girls. I'm afraid they are guarding against you. Thank you for being so generous and doing it for them."
For your own sake.”
Wu sighed: "Who makes me the mother of the big house? I was worried that they didn't understand the rules and made mistakes, and people looked down on our Duke's mansion, which made us sleep poorly. Unexpectedly, something happened today."
"You are just too generous. When they make a mistake, don't others accuse you of not being able to educate yourself?"
"It's hard for you. You have nothing to do with the child in front of you, and you have nothing to do with it. If you manage it well, no one will say it's your fault. No matter what, if something happens, everyone will say you are vicious."
"I feel sorry for them too. Their mother is gone, and my grandfather's family has been exiled. I don't care who else cares about them..."
Mrs. Wu was playing the role of a good wife and mother, talking to several women about her difficulties.
"I would like to ask, how do you, a concubine who climbed into the master's bed while your mistress was pregnant, discipline your wife's legitimate children?"
Huo Xi approached with a smile.
Wu was not given a chance to speak: "You are a distant relative who came to your door with two pairs of old clothes. You are ungrateful and have no regard for love. You have stepped on my mother's position all these years. It has been so long that you think others will not remember you."
What’s the past? Do you really think that you are the royal wife of the Duke’s Mansion?”
"Both of the two children were born as concubines. Do you really want to become the master and rise to a high position?"
Several noble ladies surrounding Wu were shocked and looked at her one after another.
This daughter-in-law who has just returned home is not simple.
Huo Xi's appearance caught people off guard, and she spoke so fast without stopping that Wu couldn't get a word in at the moment and wanted to tear her alive.
Huo Xi watched her change of expression with a smile, and had to praise Wu's good mental quality for not jumping up yet.
He also tried to argue: "Your sister and brother have misunderstood me..."
"Misunderstanding? Is it a misunderstanding? You don't know it in your heart? All these years, you have a high bed and a soft pillow, making you a servant. Poor my mother, she doesn't even have anyone to help her. You sleep peacefully, and you are not afraid of my mother coming at night.
you."
With a smile on his face: "My adoptive parents are common people and fishermen, which is good, but they don't steal or rob, and they raise us for the Duke's government even if they don't want to eat. As for your family, you rely on your daughter to crawl into bed and enjoy the good life in the capital. You are
Have you forgotten why your brother Wu Youcai was exiled to the north?"
Several ladies lowered their heads, and those passing by pricked up their ears.
Wu wished she could eat Huo Xi alive, her eyes were full of murderous ferocity.
"Madam, Concubine Zhang is calling you to come over." A maid appeared at the right time.
Wu glared at Huo Xi hatefully and followed the servant girl away.
Several ladies rubbed oil on their soles and ran away quickly.
Huo Xi looked at Wu's back gradually walking away and ordered Hu Hu next to her: "Let someone call Wu's parents over and bring their grandchildren. Tell the Crown Princess and Princess Fuqing that they see how pitiful they are and want to reward them."
them."
"Yes." Amber went with a happy expression.
Mrs. Wu wanted to say that her siblings grew up in a commoner's home and did not understand etiquette and rules, so she wanted to show the world what her natal family was like.
Wu Youcai was exiled, and his wife left the family with more than a dozen children, took a divorce letter and remarried.
Wu's father and Wu's mother brought about ten grandchildren to the Duke's Mansion every day to enjoy the autumn breeze. Wu wanted to hide it, but Huo Xi was not used to them.
Sure enough, Wu's father and Wu's mother had brought a dozen of their grandchildren to the Duke's mansion early to eat ready-made food, but the Wu family detained them in the courtyard and could not get along with the nobles, so they had long been impatient.
When they heard that the Crown Princess and Princess Fuqing wanted to reward them and invite them to a banquet together, they were so excited that they brought all the grandchildren over.
This one child will be rewarded a little, and a dozen other children will be rewarded once, which will be enough for his family to eat for a long time.
He rushed away excitedly.
Having a granddaughter in the Prince's Mansion is very useful.
Mother Wu brought a dozen children to the Crown Princess and Princess Fuqing, crying and acting miserable, which frightened the Crown Princess and Princess Fuqing.
This man extended his hand to ask for a reward, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, the Crown Princess and Princess Fuqing had no choice but to endure their nausea and rewarded him with some money before sending him away.
They were so disgusted that if Mrs. Wang hadn't taken them away by force, they would have thrown away their sleeves.
The Crown Princess and Princess Fuqing left without throwing up their sleeves, but the Crown Prince took the Emperor's grandson and left the banquet early without even taking a bite of the meal.
Father Wu called his grandson-in-law and asked the prince to make the decision for his son. Where can the prince eat in peace?
He walked away with a puff of his sleeves.
Zhang Fu is so annoyed, who released Father Wu?
Wu's father hugged him and called him his son-in-law. He couldn't deny his relatives when he became the Duke of the country. The family was so poor that they almost had no food to eat. How pitiful.
Zhang Fu pulled him away, chased after the prince, made excuses and apologized, and was so frightened that he broke out in sweat. Then he coaxed the prince and sent him out of the house.
If he hadn't thought about his son still waiting for him to introduce him, Zhang Fu probably wouldn't have returned to the banquet.
Mu Yan watched the whole process and was in a good mood.
I heard that the Wu family's mother also took her nieces and nephews to ask for rewards, and even grabbed an extra bowl of rice.
Such a losing move is something that a small-time liar can figure out.
Now, who dares to doubt that the young prince grew up in a commoner's family, something Si Liu didn't understand? Do you want to compare him with Zhang Jie?
With such blood flowing from Zhang Jie's body, and a concubine becoming a legitimate son, how could having a Yuan wife and a legitimate son be more noble?
Well, today's dish is delicious.
He turned around and saw that his cousin Mu Jie was also using his chopsticks very quickly, which must be because the food was delicious.
Otherwise, this child is very picky and might not even be able to pick up two more chopsticks.
Mu Yan also took a chopstick and put it into his mouth. When he turned around, he saw that his cousin had slipped off the table, "Brother, I went to watch the sideshow in Sister Xi's courtyard!"
He ran away in a flash.
Mrs. Wu also received a report from her servants early, knowing that her parents had brought great humiliation to her. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth and was too ashamed to go out to rescue her.
Zhang Biyao almost fainted when she heard that her maternal grandfather still called her the prince's grandson-in-law.
