He Wenyan was so angry that he gasped when he heard his second sister say such shameless words.

He slammed the table and said, "If you have the guts, go and ask the chef and the teacher out yourself! I'm not as shameless as you! Your Gao family doesn't even care about a Jinshi. Does that mean I, your brother, don't care about your Gao family either? Get out! Don't come back to your parents' home anymore!"

He stood up suddenly, "Mom is not in the capital, and you, as the eldest brother, treat me like this? The eldest brother is a father, are you worthy of father? What did you promise when you knelt in front of father before he died? You will take good care of me, and this is taking care of me? You have the nerve to tell others that you are a Jinshi? You despise the poor and love the rich, and you are fawning on your eldest sister-in-law's family. If I marry poorly, you will kick me out! If it is not a good family, it is my parents who chose it for me, not me. Mother is not dead yet, what right do you have to kick me out?"

He Wenyan was so angry that his beard trembled. He raised his hand and pointed at the door, "Get out! Get out!"

He stood up and walked out, saying as she walked, "If you have the guts, wait until mother comes back and do the same to me, then even if you kneel down and beg for forgiveness, I won't forgive you!"

As soon as she left, He Wenliang came in. He Wenyan took a deep breath and said, "She's becoming more and more outrageous."

He Wenliang said, "What do you mean by 'getting more and more outrageous'? When my eldest sister-in-law first got married, she was always stirring up trouble in front of my mother. I was young then, so she didn't hide it from me. Maybe she was thinking about our family, so I would listen to whatever she said. I told my eldest brother about it, and he scolded me. My mother also said that I was a traitor.

"It turns out that in the eyes of mother and second sister, eldest sister-in-law is an outsider. When I told my eldest brother about this, he would say that as sons and brothers, we should be more considerate of mother and second sister. For almost twenty years, it is precisely because of my eldest brother's consideration that she has become more and more excessive. My eldest brother is angry now, and if I say something insincere, will my eldest sister-in-law be angry for the past twenty years?"

At this point, He Wenliang's expression suddenly changed. "Second sister will definitely go to the Wang family. She will use the eldest brother's name and say that the eldest brother asked her to go."

He Wenyan's expression also changed. He was no longer skeptical like before, but was certain that his second sister would do this.

He stood up and walked out. "Is the carriage at the door? Let's take it and go to Wang's house quickly."

He Wenliang followed him out and said, "Yes, I'll take you there."

After leaving the He family, He thought that if she returned home, she would definitely be scolded by her mother-in-law, who would say that she couldn't even handle such a small matter.

She thought about it and decided to go directly to the Wang family and say that her eldest brother asked her to come. She didn't believe that the Wang family would not even give her eldest brother face.

So what if the Wang family and the General’s Mansion know each other?

Isn't it just a business?

Apart from having some money, their status is not as high as the Gao family. After all, the Gao family is also a family of scholars.

Mrs. Wang heard from the doorman that Aunt He had arrived. She was the aunt of Young Master He, who was studying with her uncle.

She had never heard Mrs. Mo say anything about her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but she knew from Mrs. Zhou that Mrs. He was not a good person.

Mrs. Wang had never experienced what kind of people in ordinary families were like, so she let He come in and called Wang Huilan from the backyard to come and see for herself.

I saw a woman in her thirties come in. Although she was smiling, I could feel the resentment in her.

This was said by Wang Huilan. She said that a person always complains too much, and she herself doesn't realize it, but others can see that she is full of resentment.

He had never met Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Xue Si, but she could tell them apart by their ages. She bowed to them, but seeing that they were sitting still, she felt contempt for them, thinking they were businesspeople who had no manners at all.

After she sat down, she said in what she thought was very polite and courteous: "I didn't know that the Wang family bought a house and moved here. I just heard about it when I returned to my mother's house. As an aunt, I would like to thank Mrs. Wang for letting her brothers from her mother's family give my eldest nephew some advice. Actually, my eldest brother is also a Jinshi, but he has been in Tongzhou recently and has no time."

It was obvious from her words that your brother from your mother's side was a Jinshi, and my eldest brother was also a Jinshi, so it was nothing big.

Mrs. Wang and Wang Huilan looked at each other, and then looked at Mrs. He together.

He thought to herself, they were speechless as soon as I opened my mouth.

She continued, "It's like this. My eldest brother asked me to come here this time. My eldest sister-in-law is not good at speaking and is shy in front of outsiders. My eldest brother was afraid that she might not say it well, so he asked me to come over and tell her. My son is six years old, which is also the age for enlightenment. I originally wanted to study with Mr. Nie with Shanluo, but then I thought that there are several other students in my husband's family, and it would not be convenient for them to come with him. My eldest brother said that if Mr. Nie goes to my husband's family, my husband's family will not mind if my two nephews go there. We can have a meal there every day, and then I will ask my eldest sister-in-law to send a cook to cook, so that Mr. Nie will not suffer any loss."

Mrs. Wang and Wang Huilan looked at each other again, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Mrs. Wang asked, "Then how much money will your Gao family give?"

He thought to herself, this is a lowly businessman, he just asks for money.

"I'm embarrassed to hear you say that, Mrs. Wang. I can afford the small amount, but isn't this a bit too formal? I know the Wang family has worked hard to help my sister-in-law's family. I'll treat the Wang family to a meal later."

Mrs. Wang couldn't help it and covered her mouth with her hands while laughing. Wang Huilan also covered her mouth while laughing, for fear of laughing too loudly.

They grew up in an environment where they had never encountered such people who would speak nonsense in front of them.

He could see that he was mocking her, and immediately frowned, "My eldest brother also told me not to talk about money. I thought that no matter what, I couldn't let Mr.'s hard work be in vain."

She thought to herself, humph, if you guys collect the money, you’ll have to ask my sister-in-law to help pay for it later.

He Jingyi heard it at the door and her face turned red with embarrassment.

She knew something was wrong when she heard her second aunt coming, so she hurried over. When she got there, she heard her second aunt say this, and she felt very embarrassed. She didn't know whether to go in or not, and thought to herself, "How could I have such an aunt? It's so embarrassing."

She heard footsteps behind her and turned to see her father and third uncle. She hurried forward and said, "Dad, my aunt is talking..."

Tears came to my eyes when I said this.

He Wenyan went in without waiting for the Wang family's servants to inform him. After entering, he was too embarrassed to look at anyone and bowed, "I'm sorry, my sister has gone insane."

He saw her eldest brother chasing after her and was about to stand up and smile apologetically, but when she heard what he said, she immediately retorted, "You're the one who's gone crazy. I'm doing this for your own good..."

He Wenyan didn't argue with her at all, he just walked up and pulled her away.

Behind him, He Wenliang was busy apologizing to Mrs. Wang, but he was too embarrassed to look up. "I'm sorry, my second sister talks nonsense when she's sick. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you two."

His face flushed red, and he turned around and saw that his second sister was still struggling, so he helped his eldest brother pull his second sister out.

He Jingyi followed. She was afraid that her second aunt would make excuses in front of her father and third uncle, so she wanted to repeat everything she heard to her father and third uncle.
