Mrs. Fu received the report that the prince was coming over for dinner and hurried to the kitchen to arrange meals.
From the soup at the entrance to the tea after the meal, everything was arranged properly. Mrs. Fu breathed a sigh of relief, came out of the kitchen, and went to the dining room to watch people change potted flowers, change fruit plates, and change curtains and screen cushions.
The three Wei sisters followed their mother-in-law from the kitchen to the dining room.
Mrs. Fu was sitting on the couch against the wall, watching the eldest daughter, the Fourth Lady, standing in the middle of the dining room, checking on the command. The second, sixth, and third lieutenant, the Seventh Lady, sat beside Mrs. Fu on the left and right, watching.
Follow my sister's command and control, while chatting.
"Why does my cousin come to dinner?" Qi Niangzi asked.
"What are you talking about?" Mrs. Fu patted her little daughter on the head.
"I also want to ask. My cousin never goes to the Three Treasures Hall for anything." The Sixth Lady smiled.
"That's right, my mother-in-law also said this." The seventh lady immediately answered.
"We'll find out when he comes," Mrs. Fu said with a smile.
"Let's guess!" The Sixth Lady stretched her head forward and laughed with the Seventh Lady.
"Looking for daddy?" Qi Niangzi answered quickly.
"Definitely not. If we were looking for my father, my cousin would definitely go to the Yamen." Liu Niangzi simply denied it.
"Then I'm looking for A-Niang." The Seventh Lady immediately gave her second answer.
"I think so too." Lady Six nodded.
"Then you two guess again, if he really comes to see your grandma, what will happen?" Mrs. Fu said with a smile.
"I'm definitely not here to pay my respects to my mother-in-law or anything." Sixth Lady smiled first.
"It's not like I'm asking for advice. My cousin doesn't like learning. He's most afraid of dad talking to him about learning." The Seventh Lady chuckled.
"Don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Fu patted her little daughter again.
"You should say: My cousin is determined to study, but he is too busy with official duties and really has no time!" The Sixth Lady laughed out loud before she could finish her words.
"What are you laughing at?" Mrs. Wei Si put the last pot of flowers and sat on the armchair in front of the couch.
The Sixth Lady and the Seventh Lady exchanged words. Mrs. Fu looked at her eldest daughter and said with a smile, "What do you think it is?"
"Has aunt arranged the marriage for him?" the fourth lady answered very quickly.
"It's best not to do this. If it's really for this, I'm afraid it won't work." Mrs. Fu sighed.
If the princess has approved the marriage for the prince and he comes to her for this purpose, then as usual, he has already refused and asked her to persuade the princess to prevent the princess from becoming angry.
"I think on the bright side, maybe I want to ask my mother about the temper of that girl?" the fourth lady said with a smile.
"I don't think so. My cousin, if you tell him about so-and-so, he will look at you like this." The Sixth Lady turned her head, raised her chin, and looked at the Fourth Lady from the corner of her eyes.
"One more thing: does your mother-in-law know that you talk about people's rights and wrongs like this?" Qi Niangzi immediately answered.
The Fourth Lady laughed out loud.
"The prince teaches you this, it is for your own good!" Mrs. Fu laughed angrily.
"Perhaps he has taken a fancy to someone and came to Aniang to be a matchmaker." Qi Niangzi said with a smile.
"It's getting more and more nonsense." Mrs. Fu patted the Seventh Lady.
Mrs. Wei Si's heart moved slightly when she heard this.
After cleaning up the dining room, mother and daughter came out. Madam Wei Si pulled Mrs. Fu, and they were a few steps behind. Madam Wei Si took Mrs. Fu's arm and asked in a low voice: "Auntie, I know that Miss Li
?"
Mrs. Fu glanced at her daughter for a moment before replying: "I probably don't know."
"You didn't tell your aunt?"
"What you said is nonsense. Prince Rui's Mansion has two villas in the south of the Yangtze River and thousands of servants. Do you need me to inquire about things for her? Besides, it's not like you don't know the rules of Prince Rui's Mansion.
It is most taboo to pry and inquire, so you shouldn't ask such questions." Mrs. Fu frowned and scolded.
"I know." Madam Wei Si frowned, not because of Auntie's lesson, but because she didn't expect that her aunt didn't know about Miss Li.
After seeing Gu Yan off, Mrs. Fu sat and drank half a cup of tea, then called her eldest daughter, Mrs. Wei Si, in.
Mrs. Fu motioned her daughter to sit next to her and said in a low voice: "Your seventh sister really got it right."
"Ah? Miss Li?" Mrs. Wei Si's eyes widened.
"Well, guess what he said to me first?" Mrs. Fu's voice was very low. "He asked me: What should he do to be the best for my grandmother? Look! He is really caring."

"I have told you a long time ago that my cousin is very kind to Miss Li, but you haven't taken it to heart at all. When has a person like my cousin ever worried about tea, food and snacks for others? What does Miss Li want to eat?
My cousin explained carefully what to drink!"
Madam Wei Si let out a long sigh. Regarding this unexpected event, at least for the moment, she was almost filled with gossip and excitement. As for the shock and countless chain troubles caused by this incident, she had not thought that much.
"How could I have thought of this! Your cousin has been arrogant since he was a child. Oh, I really didn't expect it." Mrs. Fu was filled with emotion.
"Auntie, can you nod?" Lady Wei Si asked worriedly.
Mrs. Fu glanced at her daughter speechlessly.
"I asked the wrong question." Mrs. Weisi reacted very quickly, "My cousin asked me what is best for Miss Li. My cousin cannot tolerate my aunt's refusal. Alas! My aunt's tough temper means my cousin
I can suppress her, but alas!"
"Alas!" Mrs. Fu sighed, "In their mansion, it is the prince who has the softest temper. Alas!"
Mother and daughter sighed at each other for more than ten times, and Mrs. Wei Si held her breath slightly and asked: "Why did you tell your cousin?"
"I asked him to take Miss Li back to the capital first." Mrs. Fu lowered her voice, "It's not that we look down on Miss Li's background. Her background is so different from that of the palace. Another one,
The customs and customs of Pingjiang Prefecture and Beijing are also very different.
"That Miss Li is a thoughtful person, and she is not the kind of person who is just greedy for wealth and power. Go to the capital and let the prince see it, and let Miss Li see it. Maybe the prince, maybe Miss Li, can see it.
This job is no longer suitable."
"Then what if after reading this, my cousin still thinks Miss Li is good, and Miss Li also thinks she is suitable?" Lady Wei Si asked with a frown.
"When Miss Li enters the capital, it's your aunt's business. If everything is suitable, it will be a happy event!" Mrs. Fu gave her daughter a disgusted look.
Madam Wei Si suddenly let out a sigh of relief. She understood that her mother-in-law was bringing the person to the capital and placing him in front of her aunt. This was not something that relatives like them could intervene in, but...
"Then we have to have an attitude, right? Should we go back to the capital with them then? If we go back together and arrive in the capital, if my aunt thinks it's inappropriate, how will I get along with Miss Li?" Mrs. Wei Si asked a series of questions. "Let's talk about it then." Mrs. Fu rubbed her temples, she had a headache.
