The mother of the Hou family eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and went crazy, I won by sucking milk

Old Madam Zhou didn't know that Zhou Ziran was thinking this way.

With a reproachful look on his face, "If you want to start a family, you naturally have to rely on your parents' matchmaking. At worst, your sister-in-law will find a good marriage for you."

At the end of her speech, Madam Zhou jumped up and said, "In short, you must not do this by yourself! Moreover, you are doing this in front of so many people. Do you want to save your reputation as the second daughter of the Marquis' Mansion?"

Old Madam Zhou glanced at the maids and servants around her with a threatening look in her eyes.

The maids and servants all lowered their heads, as if they had not heard what had just been said.

Zhou Ziran seemed to have thought of something and gave a mocking smile.

He smiled at Madam Zhou and said, "Face? Do people in my mansion still need face? Even if we need face, I'm afraid we would have lost it all long ago. Didn't you teach me to be like this? Back then, my elder brother..."

"Shut up!" Seeing Zhou Ziran getting more and more excited, Old Lady Zhou quickly scolded him and interrupted him.

She was afraid that the other party would say something he shouldn't.

Then, he continued, "Your marriage will be carefully arranged with your sister-in-law. You should study the art of managing a household during this period. When you get married, I will return the management power to your sister-in-law."

It didn't look like Mrs. Zhou was joking when she said this.

Zhou Ziran then became a little anxious.

She asked hurriedly, "Mother! Are you really going to let me manage the household? The account books are all in the red now, how can you let me manage it? I can only manage it if you have money, right?"

Old Madam Zhou glanced at Zhou Ziran coldly.

Before Madam Zhou could speak, Jiang Wanqing, who was standing by, said kindly, "Second sister, what you said is wrong. The money in the monthly account book is enough to cover the expenses of the Marquis' Mansion. However, you just spent the money this month, so it is naturally not enough."

Zhou Ziran suppressed the anger in his heart.

Turning back to look at Jiang Wanqing, he said with a fake smile: "Sister-in-law, you really are talking about things that are not related to the topic."

Jiang Wanqing had a smile on her lips, and explained in a very understanding manner: "I'm worried that my second sister doesn't know how to manage the household, so I'm telling you that the money in the Marquis' Mansion is enough for normal expenses. Next month, my second sister, remember to save some money."

When Zhou Ziran heard this, he felt that Jiang Wanqing was here to laugh at him and said this on purpose.

She said with a hint of anger: "Even if the normal expenses are enough, that is for next month's expenses. However, the silver in the account book of the Marquis' Mansion this month has been spent. For the remaining days, we will all starve together!"

Jiang Wanqing didn't care at all about Zhou Ziran's unfriendly tone.

She replied calmly, "Second sister, what are you afraid of? I remember that you bought a lot of clothes and jewelry. If it doesn't work out, you can just pawn a few pieces of jewelry."

Xiaoxiao, who was in Jiang Wanqing's arms, felt extremely refreshed when seeing this scene.

Waving his little hands excitedly and smacking his lips.

【Mother finally stopped accepting it! 】

[Just don't agree to everything they ask for. Let's see what kind of trouble they can stir up without their mother's support! ]

Jiang Wanqing heard Xiaoxiao's thoughts clearly and a smile appeared on her lips.

When Zhou Ziran heard that the other party was still eyeing her jewelry, she finally couldn't help it.

She stepped forward and said, "Do you really have to force the second daughter of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion to pawn her things to support the family? Do you want everyone to see this joke?"

Old Madam Zhou, who was standing by, suddenly picked up her walking stick and knocked it heavily on the ground.

"That's enough! Ziran, don't you think there are enough jokes? The scene you made here today has already brought shame to my mansion!"

Zhou Ziran looked at Madam Zhou in disbelief: "Mother! Why do you also want to be partial to Jiang Wanqing!"

Old Madam Zhou took a deep breath.

Looking at Zhou Musheng, who was standing obediently at Jiang Wanqing's feet, his eyes flickered.

Of course, it was because she was still thinking about Jiang Wanqing trying to persuade Mr. Wu Chen to be Zhou Musheng's teacher.

Madam Zhou frowned and looked at Zhou Ziran: "Just listen to your sister-in-law and sell a few pieces of jewelry to get through this month. Don't do this again next month."

Zhou Ziran's face started to crack.

His pupils shrank slightly, and he asked tentatively, "Could it be that the housekeeper's power will be handed over to me next month? Do you really want me to manage the mansion until I get married?"

Zhou Ziran was a little devastated when he heard this.

Old Madam Zhou looked at Zhou Ziran who seemed somewhat desperate.

He tried to signal the other person with his eyes.

Zhou Ziran's originally collapsed appearance began to improve.

In the end, Zhou Ziran left reluctantly with her maids and servants.

After Zhou Ziran and his men left, the entire yard became much emptier.

Old Madam Zhou looked at Zhou Musheng again.

Zhou Musheng came to Old Madam Zhou obediently.

There was a look of doting in Madam Zhou's eyes.

But after a moment, he realized why he came here this time.

Madam Zhou's face suddenly became anxious.

She looked at Jiang Wanqing and said in a friendly tone, "Wanqing, you see, since you don't want to be the housekeeper, I have already let Zhou Ziran be the housekeeper and asked her to apologize. As for Mu Sheng, Mr. Wu Chen suddenly said this morning that this child is not meant for him, and he will not accept our Mu Sheng."

At the end, there was a hint of worry on Madam Zhou's face.

What she wanted most was to help Zhou Musheng invite Mr. Wu Chen.

All the students accepted by Mr. Wu Chen passed the palace examination and obtained official titles.

Thinking of this, Old Madam Zhou sighed deeply again.

Then he said, "Wanqing, please help Mu Sheng to speak well of Mr. Wuchen. Otherwise, ask him to give Mu Sheng another chance."

Holding little Jiang Wanqing, he shook his head.

He said helplessly: "Mother, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that Mr. Wuchen only has one chance to help. Now he and Mu Sheng are not destined to be together, and this cannot be forced. But mother, don't worry, before Mr. Wuchen leaves, I will continue to ask about his feelings and ask him to give our Mu Sheng another chance!"

There was a smile in Jiang Wanqing's eyes.

The master is leaving, and as a student, I should at least see him off, right?

Madam Zhou responded repeatedly, "Okay, Wanqing, you can plead for Mu Sheng. If you can persuade Mr. Wuchen, you will be a great contributor to our Xingchang Marquisate!"
