Reborn to be a mistress, she went crazy killing the legitimate daughter

Rong Qingqing didn't like what she heard. She glanced at Shen Yiran who was sitting next to her and deliberately asked, "Sister-in-law, please teach me how to deal with this social event."

Shen Yiran smiled faintly after hearing this: "I won't go. The Marquis will turn down any invitations he can, unless it is a banquet hosted by a superior from the Ministry of War or a royal banquet, which he generally does not attend. I don't have much experience to teach my second sister-in-law."

The old lady nodded with her eyelids drooping, "That's right. Now Jinnian is a favorite of His Majesty. The power in the court is complicated. It would be bad to offend anyone. It's better to just not go."

Rong Qingqing just wanted to embarrass Shen Yiran, but unexpectedly, she was praised by the old lady. She fanned herself hard even though she was not hot.

Shen Yiran pursed his lips and smiled: "Second sister-in-law is indeed from the south, she always holds a round fan."

When Rong Qingqing heard this, she thought Shen Yiran was showing off that she was from Kyoto and implying that she was a bumpkin. She immediately twirled her round fan and said, "There is a strong trend of scholars and beauties in Jiangnan. Everyone likes to play with round and folding fans. They have elegant interests. I don't know what the ladies in Kyoto like. Why don't you introduce them to me, sister-in-law?"

Shen Yiran smiled softly and said, "Second sister-in-law, you are overthinking. I just saw that your fan has been used for a long time, so I wanted to ask someone to make a new one for you."

Rong Qingqing immediately said with disdain, "My round fans are all made by top-quality embroidery. The fans in our shop are all given to embroiderers to make, right? I don't like those."

"That's right. I'm thinking now that Jiangnan is a prosperous place, and the pens, inkstones, and silks there are better. I'm going to discuss it with the old lady. The fan shop will have no business when the weather turns bad, so why not do something else?"

After hearing this, Rong Qingqing became thoughtful and waited for Shen Yiran to propose.

“That’s good, but I don’t know what will happen.”

Shen Yiran looked at Rong Qingqing and said, "Second sister-in-law is from Jiangnan, what do you think?"

Rong Qingqing was waiting to express her opinion. When she heard the question, she immediately smiled and said, "Girls naturally make their own handkerchiefs, but we can make some exquisite fan-shaped handkerchiefs and sell the silk thread."

The old lady nodded thoughtfully: "This is good."

Shen Yiran immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Although I have this idea, I am unable to do it. Since this is the idea of ​​my second sister-in-law, why not let her do it?"

Hearing this, Rong Qingqing was somewhat confused about Shen Yiran's intention, but she would not let go of such a great opportunity. She immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Old lady, let me try. We Jiangnan women have been exposed to these things since we were in our mother's womb."

The old lady could tell that Shen Yiran was in favor of giving it to Rong Qingqing, so she agreed: "In that case, I'll leave it to you."

Rong Qingqing smiled and bowed, then sat down and chatted with the old lady for a while before going out with Shen Yiran.

"It seems that the third sister-in-law is really too busy, otherwise she would give the good things to others?"

Shen Yiran smiled generously, his expression dignified: "I am only thinking about the business of the Marquis' Mansion. Second sister-in-law must know more about this matter. Only by employing virtuous people can we do business well."

"Besides, Second Sister-in-law must be very bored staying in the mansion now. Why don't we do something so that we can live a peaceful life."

Rong Qingqing immediately frowned and glared at Shen Yiran, anger flashing in her crescent eyes.

Shen Yiran just smiled and didn't care: "Second sister-in-law, start preparing today. The account books should be handed over to the accounting office every month and sent to the old lady for review."

After giving the order, he left, leaving Rong Qingqing very unhappy.

She thought she had gained some benefits, but she was ordered around by Shen Yiran everywhere, telling him what people to employ and what account books to hand in. It was obvious that he was treating her as a subordinate.

But no matter how unhappy she was, she refused to give up, so she could only hold her anger and not say a single bad word to his face.

Shen Yiran was so smart that he gave her some sweet treats to make her calm down.

Xu was finally about to give birth. At three o'clock in the night, her water broke while she was lying on the bed.

The whole family was awakened and waited in the inner hall.

However, the delivery was not smooth and it was not until the end of the next evening that the baby was born.

The midwife immediately picked the baby up and looked at him. She was very happy and shouted the good news: "Congratulations, Master and Madam, it's a boy!"

The news immediately spread to the inner hall. The old lady chanted a Buddhist chant with joy and immediately got up and walked towards the delivery room.

Shen Yiran immediately supported the old lady and left, leaving Rong Qingqing alone behind. She quietly tugged at Bo Jinjue's sleeve, frowned, bit her handkerchief, and looked very jealous.

The midwife had just washed the baby, wrapped him in swaddling clothes and brought him to Xu.

Xu's face was pale and she was covered in sweat. She was so exhausted that she could hardly lift her eyelids. But when she looked at the child's face, she knew it was a boy and smiled with tears in her eyes.

Shen Yiran was moved by Xu's expression and couldn't help but hold back tears: "Sister-in-law, you have worked hard. Why don't you drink some ginseng soup and take a rest?"

The old lady was holding the child with a face full of joy. Upon hearing this, she immediately said, "That's right. Someone come and wipe the lady's body and change her clothes, and carry her to the upper room."

After hearing this, Xu finally closed her eyes in peace.

Because the Marquis's Mansion had a grandson and Bo Jinjue was promoted to Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, they both had to invite guests. The old lady meant to do it all at once and just have a banquet.

But the eldest brother of the second branch was not happy about it. He felt that this was clearly a matter between the two branches, with different natures, and the guests invited naturally had different focuses. He was unwilling to handle it all at once.

Shen Yiran had no choice but to persuade the old lady that it would be fine to wait until the child was one month old or to hold the marriage during the day.

The right thing to do first is to help my second brother pay back the bill.

The old lady was a little unhappy when she heard this, and said calmly with a gloomy face: "I have told them not to attend the banquet too much, but they didn't listen and ran outside all day."

Shen Yiran didn't say anything, but immediately told the scale and arrangements of the banquet and waited for the old lady's instructions.

"This troupe is fine, but forget about all the other stuff."

Shen Yiran nodded and did as the old lady wished.

Rong Qingqing wanted to find out something, so she took the time to ask about the scale of the banquet and deliberately mentioned many people, saying how close they were to Bo Jinjue and who must be invited.

As a result, many people were added in vain. They were supposed to help them repay favors, but instead they were used to repay favors for them.

Shen Yiran didn't say anything to refute it, but just let the old lady know these things inadvertently.

The old lady specially called the second wife over for a private talk, and the next day she deleted some irrelevant people from the banquet.
