A car accident, our family of three crossed

Of course, Zhou Rong was unaware of Zhou Yan's little calculations. Her mother had said she would sell the shop that she had promised to give her as a dowry, and she never mentioned it again.

She tried every possible means to get Zhou Yan to make a scene in front of her mother so as to test her mother's attitude and whether she would compensate her for her future dowry.

But at the moment, it seems that the mother is obviously unhappy about this incident. Naturally, she is still the considerate and caring daughter as always.

So, she pretended to be disappointed with Zhou Yan and started to scold her.

"Yan'er, you are not young anymore. You have reached the age of marriage. Why are you still so ignorant?"

As she spoke, she acted a little regretful, sighed and said, "There are priorities. Although I feel a little pity that the shop I brought as a dowry is gone, mother sold the shop to take care of my eldest brother's affairs. As long as my eldest brother is safe and sound, it doesn't matter if I don't want any dowry. Those are external things, how can they compare to blood ties and family ties?"

After this long speech, Zhou Yan was almost ashamed.

Even the maid who was serving the marquis's wife couldn't help but feel moved after hearing this, and thought, the young lady is really sensible!

However, only the Marquis's wife knew that her eldest daughter had always been scheming. Only she herself knew how much truth and falsehood there were in what she said.

After all, being young and inexperienced, Zhou Rong’s performance was not entirely natural and could not escape the eyes of Mrs. Hou.

After all this commotion, the Marquis's wife didn't want to say anything more, and she didn't want to get to the bottom of who instigated the commotion.

After going through this incident, she now understands that some children are born to collect debts. Maybe she owed them in her previous life, and they came to her in this life to collect the debt.

"Let's leave it at that for today! Sister Yan, you go back first, and Sister Rong, you stay and talk to me."

"Yes, mother."

Zhou Rong responded obediently and sensibly, and took over the nanny's position, massaging the Marquis's forehead and temples considerately.

Zhou Yan looked reluctant and stood there not wanting to leave. She was worried that if she left, the marquis's wife would give the shop that she had promised to her to Zhou Rong, which would be bad.

Mrs. Hou enjoyed Zhou Rong's massage and had to say that her headache was relieved a lot.

After a while, he didn't hear Zhou Yan leave, so he opened his eyes and saw Zhou Yan still standing there, "Why don't you go back to your own yard? Have you finished copying the female training that your grandmother punished you to copy?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan could only stomp her feet and leave reluctantly.

After Zhou Rong watched Zhou Yan leave, she advised, "Mother, Yan'er is not sensible, please don't be angry with her."

The Marquis's wife hummed in an ambiguous tone and fell silent. Seeing that she didn't want to talk more, Zhou Rong had to shut up tactfully and quietly massaged her temples.

The room suddenly became so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard. Just when Zhou Rong thought that the Marquis' wife had fallen asleep, she started to move.

She just sighed slightly, opened her eyes, and motioned Zhou Rong not to press it anymore. "Are you tired? Come over here and have some hot tea."

Zhou Rong quickly sat down as she was told.

The Marquis's wife took her hand into her own, patted it gently, and asked, "Do you blame your mother for selling the shop that was originally promised to you as a dowry?"

Zhou Rong lowered her head, her eyes flickering slightly under her eyelashes, but it was fleeting. When she raised her head, she had a well-behaved smile on her face again.

"How could I blame my mother! Even if it was me, I would do the same thing. It's just a shop, how can it be as important as my biological brother."

"I'm glad you think this way. Among all of you brothers and sisters, you are the most sensible and the least worrying."

Regardless of whether what she said was sincere or not, at this moment, the Marquis's wife felt relieved to hear it.

"As for the dowry, without the shop, other shops are indeed much worse. Mother will compensate you somewhere else. No matter who is wronged, you will never be wronged. After our plan is completed, mother will prepare your dowry again and find a good family for you."

The mother and daughter looked at each other and knew exactly what she was talking about.

"Thank you, mother."

"Why are you being so polite to your mother?" Madam Hou said as she gently stroked the hair on Zhou Rong's forehead and sighed lovingly, "Time flies so fast! My sister Rong is already old enough to get married."

Zhou Rong smiled shyly when she heard that. After all, she was still unmarried, so it was inevitable that she would feel a little shy when talking about getting married.

The mother and daughter talked in the room for a long time until Mrs. Hou got tired and let Zhou Rong leave.

The nanny saw Zhou Rong out and watched her leaving. She didn't return to the inner room to serve her until she left the yard.

"Madam, do you think Yan'er was really instigated by Miss Rong'er to make such a scene? From what I see, Miss Rong'er doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing."

In contrast to the willful and capricious Zhou Yan, Zhou Rong's usually considerate image has become more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

In the Marquis' Mansion, Zhou Yan was always the one who was harsh on the servants, and Zhou Rong would say something good for the servants every time Zhou Yan acted like a young lady, creating a good image of being gentle and kind. As a result, there was no servant in the mansion who did not like this young lady.

The Marquis's wife closed her eyes slightly and said nothing.

No one knows a girl better than her mother. It is not a bad thing for a woman to be a little scheming. The bad thing is that she should not use her scheming on her own people.

In the conversation just now, she gave Zhou Rong a lot of advice, hoping that she would not use these tricks on her own people in the future.

Earlier, Zhou Yan was scolded by the Marquis's wife to go back to her own courtyard. In fact, after she came out of the main courtyard, she kept wandering outside and never returned to her own courtyard.

When Zhou Rong came out, she saw her at a glance and deliberately coughed twice so that the other party would notice her.

Zhou Rong was a little surprised to see that she was still there. It was so cold, didn’t she know it was cold?

"Yan'er, why haven't you gone back yet?"

Zhou Yan snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Why? You don't seem to want to see me here?"

"No, I just think it's too cold today. Aren't you cold waiting here for so long?"

It would have been fine if she didn't say this, but once she said it, Zhou Yan shuddered.

How could she not be cold? Her hands were almost numb from the cold, and she was rubbing them vigorously.

Zhou Rong held her hand and walked forward, scolding her as she walked: "It's so cold, why don't you talk about it later? Why do you have to wait here? Are you stupid?"
