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

Holding little Jiang Wanqing, he suddenly felt happy.

I haven't even sat down to relax yet, and now everyone comes to blame me?

Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows, with confusion in his eyes.

When Zhou Zigu saw Jiang Wanqing's ignorant look, he became even more angry and felt that he had lost face in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Then he scolded Jiang Wanqing, "You know very well that today is your mother-in-law's birthday, and I have informed you early that Her Royal Highness the Princess will come today.

How could you have made such a mess of this birthday party? You didn't even send out a single invitation. What kind of birthday party can you even call it?

It's not easy for my mother to manage this large family. Now that she's old, I want to treat her better and let her have a happier birthday party. Why can't you even do this?"

Jiang Wanqing was immediately amused when she heard the other party's accusation.

She refuted word by word: "What are you talking about, Lord? Doesn't a half-birthday banquet cost money? In the past, birthday banquets were big because of my dowry. Now my dowry has been donated.

Your Xingchang Marquis Mansion is just an empty shell. The monthly expenses have become a problem. You are still thinking of holding a big birthday party? You can do it, no problem, but you have to give me the money first, right? You can't rely on my dowry to live as a family, right?

In the past, my eldest sister-in-law would come to ask for money every month, and my second aunt would also come to ask from time to time, and I still had to support my cousin on the farm.

Why do you still want me to support the family now that you're back?

Your mother had a hard time. Does that mean anyone else's mother has an easy life? My mother raised seven children, including me and my siblings. How many did your mother give birth to?

If you want to be filial, you can't just be a lip service, right? Are you just saying you care about your mother-in-law? You want to hold a birthday party for your mother-in-law, you can't just talk about it and let me pay for it, right? "

Jiang Wanqing's complaints did not give face to anyone in the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion.

Zhou Zigu and Zhou Ziqi both blushed immediately.

Zhou Zigu still subconsciously glanced at Her Royal Highness the Princess.

I was afraid that Jiang Wanqing's words would leave a bad impression on Her Royal Highness the Princess.

And Baili Yanqing indeed looked at Jiang Wanqing with a complicated expression when he heard these words.

She didn't expect that Jiang Wanqing's perspective on the issue was so tricky and impossible to refute.

This time, Baili Yanqing actually had some appreciation for the other person.

Zhou Zigu and Baili Yanqing have spent quite a bit of time together.

He also had some understanding of the changes in Baili Yanqing's expression.

At that moment, he looked at Jiang Wanqing and said quickly: "You have always been the steward of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion. How should I know the income and expenditure of the mansion, whether it is losing money, and whether it is enough. If there is no money, you can tell me.

Besides, now that you have married into the Xingchang Marquisate, you are a part of the Xingchang Marquisate. Your mother-in-law is also your mother. If you show filial piety, I will show filial piety. We are husband and wife as one. You..."

"My Lord," Jiang Wanqing suddenly interrupted Zhou Zigu and asked with interest, "Does my Lord really think that we are one? We are inseparable?"

After saying that, Jiang Wanqing glanced at Baili Yanqing out of the corner of his eye.

Zhou Zigu was stunned, and followed Jiang Wanqing's gaze to look at Baili Yanqing. Seeing the slight displeasure on Her Royal Highness the Princess's face, he suddenly understood what was going on.

He quickly said, "That's not what I meant... I just think that some things can be discussed in advance. There's no need to make it into such an ugly situation now."

Now, Baili Yanqing is the last life-saving straw that Zhou Zigu can grasp, and he cares a lot about Baili Yanqing's feelings about the past.

Zhou Ziqi didn't notice the weird atmosphere.

She yelled at Jiang Wanqing, "Jiang Wanqing! If you are incompetent and can't manage this family, then you should give up your position early. If you can't sit in the position of Marquise, there are many people who can sit in it."

After saying that, Zhou Ziqi stood up and came to the side of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

He raised his eyebrows, with a proud look on his face: "I think Her Royal Highness the Princess is a hundred times or a thousand times more powerful than you!"

Baili Yanqing had a calm expression on his face, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Zhou Zigu, who was standing by, was also a little confused about Baili Yanqing's mood.

After a struggle and hesitation in his heart, he stood up.

He came to Jiang Wanqing and looked down at her: "Jiang Wanqing, maybe, just like Ziqi said, since you can't be my wife, you might as well leave me!"

Zhou Zigu finally broke off relations with his wife and wanted to divorce her.

At this time, Baili Yanqing's expression also changed. He raised his eyebrows, and there was some happiness in his eyes.

"I don't agree." Jiang Wanqing suddenly said.

As soon as these words were spoken, the first person to feel unhappy was Baili Yanqing.

She looked at Jiang Wanqing with a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.

I just felt that Jiang Wanqing was going back on his word.

Jiang Wanqing had clearly said before that she would file for divorce herself.

Why is it that now that Zhou Zigu proposed divorce, she doesn't agree?

Could it be that he is playing a trick on himself?

Zhou Zigu was stunned for a moment, then replied: "Do you think you have the right to refuse?"

Zhou Ziqi's face became a little excited, and he scolded: "Jiang Wanqing! You should have some self-knowledge! Since you came to the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion, you have made the Zhou family a mess! The sooner you leave, the more peace this mansion will have."

Jiang Wanqing held the child in his arms, shook his head helplessly, and sneered: "When did I say I didn't want to leave? But, asking to leave is impossible? What I want is a letter of release! Not a divorce letter!"

"A letter of divorce?" Zhou Ziqi narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard it, "Are you worthy of it?"

Baili Yanqing was relieved. It seemed that Jiang Wanqing did not lie to her.

Before Zhou Zigu could say anything.

At this time, there was a noisy sound coming from outside.

A servant came in hurriedly, his clothes seemed to be blackened by smoke.

Seeing the servant being so unruly, Zhou Zigu scolded him, "Why are you so panicked? Can't you see Her Royal Highness the Princess is here? You really broke the rules of the Xingchang Marquisate!"

The servant knelt on the ground immediately, with an anxious look on his face: "My Lord, there's a fire in the old lady's yard!"

"what!"

Zhou Zigu suddenly became excited and asked quickly: "Where is the old lady?"

Zhou Ziqi also looked worried.

The servant lowered his eyes, revealing a difficult expression. "There was a fire in the house next to the old lady's Buddhist temple. Now the fire has spread to the Buddhist temple. The old lady is still inside the temple. When we found out, the fire was already out of control."
