"Isn't it just a hundred taels of gold and a jade ruyi? Why can't it be given to Xin girl?" Fu said angrily: "Shao Xun has already taken all the advantages, why can't he let us take advantage of it? He is too selfish!"

Madam Shao was unwilling to give in, but she still had some rationality left, and soon her anger was suppressed. She waved her hand in a disinterested manner: "Forget it, forget it, there is no need to mention this matter anymore. As long as the second son works hard, there will be many good things in the future, not just this one, so don't keep thinking about it. Forget it!"

"That kid is used to being unscrupulous. How can it be so easy to get what he has?"

Fu thought about it and it seemed to be right, so he had to give up.

Neither the mother-in-law nor the daughter-in-law thought that Shao Xun had already given all the rewards to Lin Yulan.

They took it for granted that since it was a gift from the emperor, Shao Xun would of course keep it for himself.

Lin Yulan agreed to Fu's request.

Now that the family has not yet been separated, Shao Zhixin and the second son of Meng have destroyed their innocence in broad daylight. This matter really should not be delayed any longer. If it is delayed for too long, Shao Zhixin will be criticized, and the entire Wuwei Marquis Mansion will also be criticized.

There was no need for Lin Yulan to get angry with them over this.

What's more, Lin Yulan was eager for Shao Zhixin to marry into the Rongguo Mansion as soon as possible, as that would definitely make things more lively.

Old Madam Shao said that she was worried that she was young and shy, and might offend someone, which would be inappropriate, so she sent Nanny Tang to go with her, and Lin Yulan had no objection.

Lin Yulan just casually told Shao Xun about this matter. Unexpectedly, when she went out the next day, Shao Xun did not rush to the Five Military Commander's Mansion, but saw Lin Yulan off to the carriage at the door.

"Madame Tang, take good care of the Marquis's wife. You are an old lady by the old lady's side, you are experienced and know everything. That's why the old lady let you go out with her. If you can't take good care of her, I won't listen to any explanations. You are the only one who will ask. Remember that?"

Shao Xun stared at him coldly, and Aunt Tang felt her scalp tingling. "Yes, yes, Lord, don't worry, I've remembered everything..."

"That's good. I'm relieved then."

Shao Xun sneered and helped Lin Yulan get on the carriage: "Madam, go early and come back early."

Lin Yulan nodded and smiled: "My Lord, take care."

Watching their carriage slowly moving away, Shao Xun mounted his horse and left.

In the carriage, Nanny Tang raised her eyebrows and winked. Lin Yulan felt that she looked much more pleasing to the eye.

Madam Tang was originally arrogant because she was an old lady by the side of the old lady, and she didn't take Lin Yulan seriously at all. Before leaving today, Madam Shao gave her a lot of instructions, asking her to control Lin Yulan, and she agreed without hesitation.

I was originally so confident and well-prepared, but now... I suddenly feel a little uncertain.

After thinking for a while, Aunt Tang said, "When we get to the Duke Rong's mansion later, I wonder how the Marquis's wife will bring up this matter?"

Lin Yulan: "Does Aunt Tang have any good ideas?"

"After all, I am just a servant. This is the eldest lady's lifelong event. How can I have any say in it? The Marquis's wife will have to come forward. The old lady has something to tell me. We must fight for the dignity and benefits for the eldest lady. We can't let the Rongguo Mansion look down on our eldest lady."

Lin Yulan just made a nonchalant "hmm" sound and stopped talking.

Nanny Tang waited for a while but didn't see her answer, so she became impatient and asked, "Madam Hou, do you have any idea?"

Aunt Tang felt contemptuous. She didn't think Lin Yulan could come up with any good ideas. She had already put the words in front of her, so why didn't she ask her and seek her advice?

Could it be that she didn't understand what I said?

Nanny Tang laughed again and said, "Madam Hou, if you don't have any ideas, would you like to listen to me? Madam -"

"No need, let's talk about it when we get there. We are all relatives, there is no need to be so scheming."

"..."

Aunt Tang choked.

What a word!

Aunt Tang smiled with a fake smile: "Since the Marquis's wife said so, just treat it as my old servant's nonsense..."

Lin Yulan glanced over and said, "Madam Tang, it doesn't matter if you say too much now, but when we get to the Duke Rong's mansion later, please don't talk nonsense."

Aunt Tang choked.

Lin Yulan: "The Rongguo Mansion is a real aristocratic family, and the rules of respect and inferiority are extremely strict. Don't let people look down on the Wuwei Marquis Mansion and think that the servants of the Wuwei Marquis Mansion have no rules."

Lin Yulan had no intention of listening to Aunt Tang's instructions from Old Madam Shao or her random suggestions. She knew this little thing well. As long as no one came to cause trouble, it would be fine.

Aunt Tang was ashamed and angry. She was about to take advantage of her seniority and retort, but wouldn't that just happen to be in line with what the Marquis's wife said? Thinking of the Marquis's cold eyes, she lowered her eyes, responded with a "yes" and said nothing.

I want to see what Lin Yulan can do.

As soon as she heard that the wife of Marquis Wuwei was coming to visit, the wife of Duke Rong knew what was going on.

No matter how dissatisfied or unwilling Mrs. Meng was about this marriage, she had to cheer up and continue the discussion when she saw the wife of Marquis Wuwei coming in person.

Everyone knows that Marquis Wuwei has now won the emperor's favor and is a favorite in the imperial court. He is very popular, and his status has risen with the tide. No one dares to look down on Lin Yulan either.

The Deng family is powerful and impressive, isn't it? But it can be reduced to ashes just like that.

Although the Deng family's destruction was entirely their own fault and they deserved it, it is inevitable that people will be reminded of the dirty dealings between the Deng family and the Wuwei Marquis and his wife.

In the blink of an eye, it wasn't just a matter of one person falling over, but one was in heaven and the other was in hell.

Who would believe that there is no such thing as fate?

The powerful and wealthy families all believe in things like luck to some extent, so they are even more reluctant to offend Lin Yulan.

At first, Mrs. Meng thought that Lin Yulan was young, knew nothing, and was easy to fool, so she tried to set a trap for her without making a sound. Unexpectedly, Lin Yulan saw through her little tricks at a glance.

She saw through it but didn't say anything, and responded in a roundabout way. It took Mrs. Meng a long time to come to her senses. She was so angry that her face was burning and she felt a little embarrassed.

Although she was embarrassed, she didn't dare to show it, and had to pretend to be calm and smile. After all, she was the one who had bad intentions first, and Lin Yulan didn't point it out openly, which was already giving her face.

Not only did Madam Meng stop her attempts, but the wife of Duke Rong was also secretly surprised. She had never expected that the young wife of Marquis Wuwei, the concubine's daughter of a fourth-rank official, would have such abilities. It was truly extraordinary.

Lady Rongguogong's wife felt emotional, thinking that even in a small family, there would be someone who could be outstanding. Unfortunately, she did not have this blessing.

Look at her illegitimate son's wife, who is always jumping up and down, scheming everywhere, and has made countless jokes without even realizing it.
