Ye Xiang hurriedly stopped Chen Xin. Chen Xin was so good at making trouble, except for making things worse, there was no benefit at all.
Ye Xiang advised: "Don't worry. Since she has placed people around you, you should also promote them. You just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. When they fight to the point of losing, you can reap the benefits."
Chen Xin scratched his hair irritably, "Where should I find someone now?"
Something suddenly occurred to him and he looked straight at Ye Xiang.

Hou Fu and others took a carriage to Shao's house.
I originally thought that the Shao family would be busy with traffic, and their carriage would not be able to squeeze in.
But when I got off the carriage, I saw that the door of Shao's house was deserted.
There was a boy guarding the door who even sat on the steps and dozed off.
Everyone in the Hou Mansion, who had specially dressed up, thought they had arrived early.
Finally, a woman from the Shao family led everyone in the Hou family to Mrs. Shao.
There was not much joy on Mrs. Shao's face, and her expression was also light when she looked at the people in the Hou Mansion.
Especially Mrs. Chen, who was much younger than her, and Mrs. Shao put on airs even more.
Mrs. Chen also stopped laughing and said, "Why haven't the guests arrived yet?"
"Didn't the guests arrive?" Mrs. Shao laughed.
Mrs. Chen finally understood, so the Shao family invited the Hou Mansion, and no other guests were invited.
The attitude of the Shao family illustrates their attitude towards Chen Yayuan.
Thinking that Chen Yayuan had given birth to a pair of daughters, Mrs. Chen immediately understood.
Chen Yaying couldn't see through these twists and turns, so she couldn't wait to say: "When are we going to see the second sister?"
"Go now." Mrs. Chen stood up.
A group of people from the Hou family are going to visit Chen Yayuan, and Mrs. Shao should accompany them.
But she didn't move at all. She only called a maid and asked her to lead Mrs. Chen and others there.
This behavior angered the people in the Hou Mansion, but Mrs. Chen didn't say anything, and the people below couldn't say anything.
Mrs. Chen didn't want to cause trouble, so she followed the maid.
After leaving Mrs. Shao's room, Qian couldn't help but said: "Mother, this Mrs. Shao has gone too far!"
Mrs. Chen said calmly: "It is better to do less than to do more."
Others can't say anything about Mrs. Chen's attitude.
When Chen Yayuan arrived, Chen Yayuan was genuinely happy to see Mrs. Chen and others.
"Mother, sisters-in-law, you are all here." Chen Yayuan said happily.
"There are still us."
"Yes, yes, there are Sisters Ying, Yun and Yurong." Chen Yayuan happily held the ladies' hands.
While several people were talking, they suddenly heard the cry of a baby in the inner room.
Chen Yayuan left Hou Fu and others behind and hurried inside.
Mrs. Chen and others also followed in.
I saw a baby's wooden bed in the house, and the two children started crying together.
The wet nurse held one child in her arms and went to feed the baby behind the screen. Chen Yayuan held the remaining child in her arms and coaxed her.
Fu Zhaoxian walked up to Chen Yayuan and asked: "Second sister, where is the other wet nurse?"
Chen Yayuan smiled bitterly, "My mother-in-law only hired one nanny, saying that one is enough."
Fu Zhao couldn't help but said: "How can one wet nurse be enough for two children?"
Chen Yayuan's voice became softer and she said, "My family is in trouble, so I can't ask for too much."
The child in her arms has been crying and will definitely not stop crying until her stomach is filled.
When Chen Yayuan gave birth, she suffered a lot and hurt her body.
Now after standing and hugging the child for a while, my back hurts so much that my face changes.
Seeing this, Fu Zhao said: "Second sister, when I was at home, I would often take care of my niece when she was born. If you don't worry, second sister, let me coax her."
Chen Yayuan carefully put the child into Fu Zhao's arms, and Fu Zhao rocked it gently.
But the child was hungry, his mouth was open, and he was crying in grievance.
Behind the screen, the wet nurse said, "Okay, we can send the other little lady here." Chen Yayuan took the child over again and sent it to the back of the screen.
Then he put his daughter, who had eaten and drank enough, back on the crib.
She did all this herself, which made everyone in the Hou Mansion frown.
Mrs. Chen asked: "Where are the maids serving in the house? When you got married, there were four maids accompanying you."
Chen Yayuan smiled helplessly, "Today is the birthday party for the two children. We are busy at the front, so we called the maids to help."
No matter how well-educated Mrs. Chen was, she couldn't help but laugh angrily, "Busy? You just invited us to the Hou Mansion. What can you do for that? It's obvious that you want to..."
Mrs. Chen's words stopped abruptly.
Based on the principle that one thing is worse than one thing less, and Chen Yayuan is not her biological child, she does not want to say any more.
It was clearly Mrs. Shao who deliberately made things difficult for Chen Yayuan.
It is said that Chen Yayuan was injured during childbirth and it will be difficult for her to become pregnant in the future.
This time she gave birth to two more girls, and Mrs. Shao must have complained in her heart.
Mrs. Shao, who was being greeted inwardly by the people of the Hou family, was looking at Shao Geng with resentment.
Shao Geng advised: "Mom, please be nicer to Yuanyuan and your two children. Those two are your granddaughters after all."
Mrs. Shao said indifferently, "They are just two girls. They will eventually marry into someone else's family."
"Mother," Shao Geng shouted helplessly, "didn't you say before that our family should live a good life?"
Mrs. Shao snorted disdainfully.
When she said those words at that time, she was chilled by the Lu family and her daughter, and she was eager to find a trace of warmth.
And at that time, she thought that Chen Yayuan was carrying two grandsons in her belly. No matter what, they should be twins, but she didn't expect that they were actually two girls.
Mrs. Shao was very angry.
When she heard the doctor say that it would be difficult for Chen Yayuan to get pregnant in the future, she became even more unwilling to give Chen Yayuan a good look.
Moreover, she and the mother and daughter of the Lu family are related by blood.
It has been so long since the incident happened, and the bad things that happened to the Lu family and their daughter have disappeared. Now she only thinks about the good things that happened to the Lu family and her daughter.
She secretly regretted that when Lu Shan came over, why didn't she just take Lu Shan in and let Shao Geng take in Lu Shan?
No matter how bad-tempered Lu Shan is, she still has her own heart.
Seeing that his mother remained silent, Shao Geng continued to persuade: "Mom, please invite another wet nurse, one is really not enough!"
Mrs. Shao slammed the table and said angrily: "You are not unaware of the difficulties at home now. You don't know how to be considerate of the family, and you keep making sarcastic remarks? Why is one wet nurse not enough? I was the only one who supported you back then.
Without anyone’s help, haven’t you grown up properly?”
Shao Geng had always been filial in front of Mrs. Shao, but when he saw that Mrs. Shao was angry, he did not dare to continue talking.
He also wanted to persuade Mrs. Shao to calm down.
