Son of Heaven Assistance System

Chapter 99
Zhining Yuan main hall.

"Sister-in-law, this is getting more and more elegant."

After the eldest lady took her seat, the fourth lady kept looking at the furnishings in the main room.

Her natal family only started to make a fortune in her grandfather's generation. Compared with the Bai family and the Zhong family, which have been passed down for hundreds of years, the background is really shallow.

It's not that she doesn't have the same things, but she often gets one or two, and they will only keep them as treasures, where can she release them so carelessly.

The eldest lady smiled, and put the newly released sapphire teacup on the low table by her hand.

"Your brother and sister were joking. The main room was still a mess a few days ago, and it was unsightly. It was just cleaned up in a hurry yesterday. If you came back sooner, I'm afraid I don't have the face to invite you over for tea. .”

"How could it be? If my sister-in-law has no face, I'm afraid that I, a small family, will have to stay behind closed doors every day." Saying this, the Fourth Madam began to appreciate the sapphire teacup in her hand against the light.

Appreciation and obsession gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Although this sapphire is common, but it is so moist and waxy, and it needs to be carefully carved. It is really rare to get a single one, but my sister-in-law has assembled a whole set. I really envy others."

The eldest lady couldn't help laughing, the four siblings were really "simple" as always.

But today, she really wasn't in the mood to chat with the Fourth Madam and discuss these things.

"Siblings, what's going on with Mrs. Mei?"

The eldest lady came straight to the point and directly expressed the doubts in her heart.

The smile on the fourth lady's face turned pale in an instant, tears fell immediately, and she couldn't even hear the word "Mrs. Mei".

Tears instantly wet the whole area, but the eldest lady, who has always been calm, suddenly became a little confused.

This brother and sister are not a few years older than her eldest daughter. Seeing the fourth lady crying so miserably, the eldest lady can't help but think of her eldest daughter who was married far away, and wonder how she has been in the past few years?
"Why are you crying? You are the main wife, why is she just a concubine, how can you still let a concubine over your head?", the eldest lady hated the iron.

The fourth lady twisted her handkerchief and cried.

"Sister-in-law, what kind of concubine is she? Everyone calls her Mrs. Mei, and even Fourth Master calls her Mrs.... If my father hadn't taught Fourth Master a lesson, my so-called regular wife might be It’s already time to go down.”

"Is your surname Mei? The Mei family that rose up in Yangzhou?"

The fourth lady nodded, "It's the Mei family. My sister-in-law doesn't know about it. This Mei family is very evil. In less than 20 years, not only have several high-ranking officials come out, but even Jiangnan, the most profitable of all kinds. They have dabbled in all kinds of business, and in recent years, even the Zheng family has had to avoid it."

The Zheng family in Yangzhou is the most respected among the big and small families in Yangzhou. Although they are not among the four big families, they are not far behind.

The eldest lady has an aunt from her natal family who came from the Zheng family in Yangzhou, so she also has some understanding of the prosperity of the Zheng family.If even the Zheng family had to give way to the Mei family, wouldn't that mean that the Mei family could already rival the four great families?
It seems that she is ignorant.

"Since the Mei family is so powerful, why does the daughter of the Mei family know that the fourth brother already has a wife..."

"She said, she didn't know!" The Fourth Madam suddenly interrupted the Da Madam, her expression was filled with resentment.

"Then Mei Sisi, she has no choice but to speak one by one, weeping and crying, saying that love is unavoidable and uncontrollable, and she doesn't want to be like this."

Da Madam's face turned black when she heard it, "Then you agreed to let her in like this?"

"Where do I need to agree or not? My sister-in-law doesn't know about it. This Mei Sisi is just like me. She has a matchmaker and hired her. She is a genuine wife. On the day she entered the house, the prefect of Yuhang County also served as the officiant. All my life I've been treated as if I didn't exist. Sister-in-law, tell me, is she a wife?" The fourth lady's voice was full of misery.

Da Furen's expression was inconceivable, "Here, the government doesn't care about whether a wife is a wife or a concubine?"

"Heh", when the eldest lady mentioned the government, the fourth lady showed a mocking look, "Sister-in-law, maybe you have forgotten that the fourth master is an official, and the officiant is still the prefect of the county."

"These four younger brothers are too nonsense. Don't worry, younger brothers and sisters. Even if there is a matchmaker's advice, they don't have the orders of their parents. It doesn't count. Father is the most important etiquette and rules. He will definitely not agree."

In this regard, the eldest lady is very confident.

The old man of the Bai family must not have known about Mei Sisi!

If the old man knew about it early in the morning, he would acquiesce.

Naturally, there should be a seat for Mei Sisi at the main tables of these tables today.

Sure enough, after hearing what the eldest lady said, the fourth lady showed hope, "I hope, Dier and I have been forced to the point of crossfire now, I really dare not think that if she has a son in the future, How am I going to stand?"

Speaking of Bai Jidi, the First Madam didn't want to see the Fourth Madam crying, so she immediately changed the subject of Bai Jidi.

"Dier is also six years old. The young master of the Bai family has to live on his own when he is six years old. He lives in the front yard. It's just that he didn't know what Dier's preferences were before, so he didn't dare to make decisions for his younger siblings. The front yard is more Elegant, there are several good places, one is Baihuatang near Fanyuan, one is Xunyuzhai, and the other is Qiyunxuan, I don’t know where my brothers and sisters belong.”

The Fourth Madam has been away from the Bai family for too long, and many memories of the Bai family have been blurred.She put aside her sad mood and began to seriously recall the three places that the eldest lady had just mentioned. After a long time, she was vaguely sure that they were indeed good places.

"It's good for the sister-in-law to decide. If the sister-in-law chooses, it must be good, and it doesn't matter where it is. It will definitely not be wrong." The fourth wife said.

"In that case, let's choose Qiyunxuan, which is closer to Xiuyuanzhai, which is far away, so I can help you two." The eldest lady suggested.

The Fourth Madam thought that when the banquet was just over, it was the Sixth Young Master Bai Jiyuan who brought her son, and she couldn't help feeling satisfied.

When the sixth young master was young, he looked naughty, but now that he is a little older, he is still very sensible and friendly to his brothers.

There is nothing wrong with nature in the present moment.

"That's a good relationship. I just watched their brothers play well. The sixth young master was taught by his sister-in-law really well. I saw that he was very polite. Although he is not very young, he already has a very aristocratic demeanor. I don't know what will happen in the future. Only a woman can match the Sixth Young Master."

When the eldest lady heard these compliments, she couldn't help looking at the fourth lady with a little more sincerity.

"That child is very skinny. You don't want younger siblings in the future. They often come to me to complain and say that Yuan'er brought Dier to death."

...

But at this time, Bai Jiyuan is not a friendly brother.

He dragged Bai Jidi to the courtyard of Jing Wu's house.

He shouted at the top of his lungs, "Jingwu, Jingwu, I've brought it back for you... Jingwu!"
