Remarry 9,000 Years Old
Chapter 24: She is an expert at making jokes
Pingyuan Hou has experienced Ning Su's protection of his own people in the past few days.
On the day of the tea ceremony, he actually attacked Shen Jingyi personally just because she offended the new wife of the factory official.
After years of ups and downs in the officialdom, Pingyuan Hou thought he had a unique vision and thought it was just the first three days of honeymoon excitement, plus he was a protective person.
Unexpectedly, Ning Su even alarmed Emperor Ming for her.
In this way, the young aunt cannot be easily moved.
"My young uncle is right. I was wrong." Pingyuan Hou changed the subject very quickly. He was not of the same generation and had no say in whether the family should be divided or not.
Ning Su was brought up by Old Lady Ning. Although she didn't take good care of him when he was young, he has never brought up past grudges over the years.
So he thought he had some face in front of Ning Su.
At this moment, the old lady glanced at Shen Nanqiao with a smile.
"After all, we are close family members. We should visit each other more often so that we can develop feelings for each other. If we live in separate houses, we will become estranged."
Shen Nanqiao raised his head slightly and looked at the plaque on the door, his face calm and peaceful.
"Maybe the old lady is old and doesn't remember much. The Seventh Master entered the palace when he was sixteen, and has only returned to the mansion a few times in recent years. If we are to say that we are estranged, we should have been estranged over the years."
The old lady clenched the walking stick in her hand, and scratched the longevity character on the nanmu stick with her fingernails. She couldn't believe that she was being scolded by a little girl who was old enough to be her granddaughter.
"A man's ambition is to serve in the imperial court, so the affairs of the harem should not affect him, right?"
Although the Seventh Brother is cunning, he has been quite kind to the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion over the years. It cannot be said that he has promoted his own family members, but he has not put any obstacles in the way.
As soon as Shen Nanqiao arrived, he started to instigate the division of the mansion, but Old Seven actually fell for it. It was really infuriating to see this.
After years of struggling in the rear quarters, the old lady had subdued her son's daughter-in-law and her grandson's daughter-in-law.
She thinks she is invincible as just a sister-in-law.
"We are all family, so if you have any dissatisfaction, feel free to speak up. But let's not talk about the matter of the separate residence anymore."
This hit the mark exactly what Shen Nanqiao wanted. She had not originally planned to move, but was just retreating to advance, just waiting for the old lady to say this.
"Since the old lady said so, I have a few questions to ask. Although the Marquis has inherited the title, his husband is a real important official of the court. In terms of position and seniority, why is it that the Marquis' wife is the head of the family?"
The old lady's heart skipped a beat. She had planned everything, but she had never expected that this was what she wanted.
She looked at her sister-in-law again meaningfully. This girl grew up under her nose and always came to play when she was little.
Later, because the two families had an engagement, they wanted to avoid suspicion, so they had less contact.
I didn't expect this girl to be so slippery.
"Does my sister-in-law mean that she wants to take charge of the family?"
"What are you talking about, old lady? I'm just asking out of curiosity." Shen Nanqiao was calm and just smiled gently, "It's just that the position of the Crown Prince's wife is vacant, and the Marquis's wife can't handle it alone. I want to learn from her. Since the Marquis said that we are all family, I also want to share some of the worries."
The wife of Marquis Pingyuan was born into a wealthy and aristocratic family, but she had been suppressed by the old lady for many years and had not been able to make much of a splash.
Hearing this, he immediately lost his temper.
"What are you talking about, little aunt? Are you so powerful that you want to take charge of the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion?"
The old lady wished she could shut her mouth.
Shen Nanqiao sneered slightly.
"The old lady just said that we are close relatives, and now the Marquis's wife is saying that my hands are too long." She looked at the old lady with clear eyes, "I was young and ignorant, and I didn't know who to believe."
Mrs. Hou knew that she had said something wrong, and after being glared at by the old lady, she dared not say anything more.
"My sister-in-law's request is not excessive. It's just to help with household chores. Let's try it tomorrow."
Shen Nanqiao achieved his goal and decided to quit while he was ahead.
After returning to Ningsu's side courtyard, Shen Nanqiao thought carefully and came up with an idea.
She called Linglong to count and organize the dowry list one by one, and asked Madam Liu to help compile a list of the servants and their origins.
Ning Su watched her busying around coldly, and only spoke when there was no one around.
"Do you plan to be the head of the family?"
Although Shen Nanqiao was completely open with Ning Su, she didn't intend to let him interfere in this matter.
So he smiled slyly and started practicing Tai Chi.
"You take care of the outside, so I will take care of the inside."
Ning Su rarely saw her acting like a child, so he felt a little curious.
"Tell me what you are planning."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Shen Nanqiao simply sat down beside the bed.
"The power to manage the Marquis's residence has always been in the hands of the Marquis's wife. Logically, it should be handed over to the Crown Prince's wife in the future."
Ning Su raised his eyebrows.
If it weren't for Ning Ziyu's incident, it would be perfectly legitimate for her to take over the reins of the household from the Marquis's wife.
But now he married himself...
"Are you unwilling?"
"Why shouldn't I give up?" Shen Nanqiao continued to untie her hair. "I got what I wanted and married the person I wanted to marry. Why shouldn't I give up?"
That weird feeling came back again, as if the remarriage on the spot at the wedding that day was premeditated.
Before Ning Su could ask what was in his mind, he heard her speak again.
"My concubine is also a concubine. The old lady will never give the power to run the household to Shen Jingyi. So in comparison, I am naturally the best choice in the old lady's mind right now."
"What if Ning Ziyu marries a wife?"
Ning Su admitted that he was actually a little curious about this matter at the moment.
Officials were not allowed to discuss politics with their wives, but Ning Su was willing to bring her into the palace to experience the political ups and downs, which meant he treated her as one of his own.
She was returning the favor, so since Ning Su asked about her plans, Shen Nanqiao was not going to hide it.
"Then I will make sure he can't get a wife."
Ning Su raised his eyebrows.
He thought the little girl didn't care, but he didn't expect that she was still thinking about it.
It seems that her feelings for Ning Ziyu are much deeper than she thought, regardless of love or hate.
Otherwise, true indifference should be turning a blind eye.
"I broke off the engagement in public, and Shen Jingyi married in with a bulging belly. No noble lady would be willing to marry in and be the wife of this prince."
In his previous life, Ning Ziyu actually dared to betray Ning Su at the last moment, so this account cannot be ignored.
"I have nothing against the power of the family, but I want them to have a taste of what it's like to have nothing."
