The Fourth Prince gave Li Dequan a big red envelope, sent him away with a smile, and then looked bitter.

From the time Wang Ruofu gave birth to the birth of the child, he was immersed in anxiety and excitement, and had selectively forgotten that Wang Ruofu would be made the legal wife after giving birth to the eldest son.

Now that this matter has been put on the agenda, I suddenly felt dizzy. Wang Ruofu was already so arrogant when she was a concubine. Now that he has an eldest son and has become the principal concubine, will his words still count in the mansion from now on?

Different from the Fourth Prince's twists and turns, Wang Ruofu's simple mind only allows her to do one thing at a time. She is full of thoughts and eyes only on suppressing Rouze, the favored concubine, and not giving her the chance to become the second Lin Qinshuang.

Hengqingyuan was in great joy. The master had been promoted, and their monthly salary had also been increased. It would be an honor for them to serve the legitimate wife.

Nanny Fang and Ran Dong helped Wang Ruofu sort out the account books, while the three maids Chun, Xia and Qiu packed up Yixiu's dowry and the rewards she had received after three years of marriage in order to move into the main courtyard.

The child is taken care of by a wet nurse.

“Since that bitch will enter the mansion after my son’s full-month banquet, let her, together with Gangegege and Qigege, pay my respects and serve me tea on that day.” Wang Ruofu put down the manual, and her tone was as if she was talking about what to eat for dinner.

He looked around the layout of the inner room of Hengqing Garden and said, "Since she cares so much about my people, let her live in Hengqing Garden from now on. And the jewelry and clothes that are not up to the standard of a concubine will also be left to her."

Jianqiu, who was packing up her jewelry, smiled immediately upon hearing this: "In the past, Jueluo always picked up the clothes and jewelry that the young lady no longer wanted and gave them to Aunt Liu and the master, and asked the master to be grateful for the young lady's kindness. Now the master is returning them as they are."

"Things are different now. There will be no eldest lady in the future, only that princess." Wang Ruofu corrected, feeling quite a bit of wicked joy in her heart.

Jianqiu said cheerfully, "Yes, I will remember it."

"Fujin..." Ran Dong had a headache. After thinking for a while, he persuaded her, "La Gege is from the same clan as you. If you fight with her, I'm afraid it will benefit others."

Wang Ruofu didn't take it seriously, thinking that Qi Yuebin and Gan Shuyi were nothing to be afraid of, and her words made sense.

"Ever since Lord Beile was caned that day, he either comes to my room to eat or prefers to stay in the study by himself. He must be thinking about that little bitch. If I don't suppress her now, will I wait until she has a firm foothold in the mansion and challenges me in the future?"

This is what is meant by "once bitten by a snake, one becomes afraid of ropes for ten years."

Ran Dong didn't know the whole story and didn't understand why Wang Ruofu treated a concubine who couldn't get promoted and had difficulty getting pregnant so seriously, so he felt a little headache.

"You could have agreed to Gangege's surrender to you before. Although you don't ask her to do anything for you, it's better than her defecting to Naragege in the future."

"You are out of your mind." Wang Ruofu waved her sleeves and stood up. "I am a legitimate wife. When did I fall to the point of caring about the thoughts of concubines? Whose family rule is this?"

Wang Ruofu waved at Ran Dong impatiently, "Alright, alright, go down first. You are so young but you are talking like an old lady. Don't worry, I know what's going on."

Ran Dong: “…” I really can’t feel at ease.

After finishing the account books, Nanny Fang took out a few books of Tang and Song poems and placed them on the table: "Fujin, you have finished copying the Four Books and Five Classics and Women's Virtues and Precepts. So start studying and copying Tang and Song poems from today."

Wang Ruofu's face fell instantly, and she began to make excuses: "The emperor only told me to study and copy the Four Books and Five Classics, but he didn't ask me to learn these poems and lyrics."

Nanny Fang was still smiling, but her words were firm: "The Emperor also told you to keep learning day after day, and I dare not disobey."

"Instead of continuing to learn what you have already learned, you should learn something new. When Prince Honghui grows up, he will also go to school. You don't want to be unable to talk to him in the future, do you?"

These words touched Wang Ruofu's nerves. In her previous life, she could not understand what her children said, so she gave birth to one son and two daughters, but ended up like a lonely person.

Her son had never been close to her since childhood, but he was better before his two daughters got married. After they got married and had their own families, they became more and more impatient with her.

"Learn!" Wang Ruofu stared at the Tang and Song poems on the table with eyes wide open. "Isn't it just a few lines of poetry and ancient prose? How can it be harder than managing such a huge Prince's Mansion? I don't believe I can't learn it."

Under Nanny Fang's persuasion, Wang Ruofu began her painful study career. She regretted it every day, but also looked forward to having fluent conversations with the grown-up Honghui in the future.

Honghui’s third-day bath and full-moon banquet were held with great fanfare, and soon it was the day when Rouze would enter the mansion.

Wang Ruofu got up early in the morning and put on her makeup. She wore a cheongsam with a bright red background and peony embroidered with gold thread. The strand of hair that she had deliberately let down was also combed up, and she put on a phoenix hairpin made of red gold and inlaid with ruby ​​​​and southern pearls.

She is meticulous, dignified and generous, and has the demeanor of a legitimate wife.

Wang Ruofu glanced outside the screen: "Is everything ready?"

"Everything is ready, do you want to go out now?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Aren't we still missing one person?" Wang Ruofu looked at the bronze mirror again. The person in the mirror looked the same. She didn't get any spots or gain weight because of being pregnant and giving birth.

Su Ran was puzzled: "Three princesses, including Nara, have arrived, who else is missing?"

Wang Ruofu took the eyebrow pencil and pretended to draw her eyebrows: "Isn't Lord Beile here yet? He tried every means to get him here, I don't believe he won't come."

As they were talking, the fourth prince who had been resting in the study last night stepped into the front hall of the main courtyard. He smiled at Rouze and asked, "Is the wife not up yet?"

It’s here as expected.

Wang Ruofu rolled her eyes at the bronze mirror and pulled her facial muscles to show an awkward but polite smile: "It's here, isn't it? Lord Beile, why are you in such a hurry?"

He walked around the screen, taking in the seats and expressions of the three concubines, and said insincerely, "The three sisters are here quite early."

"It's what I should do." Gan Shuyi was the first to respond.

"Well, come here every day at this time from now on."

Gan Shuyi's face froze, Qi Yuebin and Rou Ze were also stunned. They didn't expect Wang Ruofu to act like the main wife in front of the Fourth Prince. Wasn't she afraid of being disliked by the Fourth Prince?

Sure enough, the Fourth Prince said, "Isn't it too early to pay respects at this time every day?"

Wang Ruofu didn't say anything, but glanced at him sideways. Seeing that he didn't change his words, she kept looking at him in this posture. The scene was silent for a moment.

Qi Yuebin sat with his head down, looking as if he had nothing to do with anything. Gan Shuyi's eyes flickered and she couldn't help but keep looking up at the two people who were confronting each other. Rouze looked at the Fourth Prince with expectant eyes.

"Ahem." The Fourth Prince was the first to lose his temper and changed his words, "I mean, they came to pay their respects so early, it will disturb you and Honghui's rest. You should also consider the children more...right?"
