When Lan heard this, she was surprised to learn that her daughter-in-law, the best in the world, could cause trouble.

He put down the scissors, motioned for Lu Zhenzhen to come over, wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, and asked, "What trouble have you gotten into? Did you set the house on fire? Or did you offend someone?"

Lu Zhenzhen told Lan everything that had just happened, and finally lowered her head: "It's all my fault for not thinking it through, otherwise I wouldn't have caused such a thing——"

Lan initially thought she had gotten into some major trouble, but it turned out to be such a small matter.

Looking at Lu Zhenzhen's depressed look, I felt distressed.

How could this be considered a disaster? My daughter-in-law had good intentions and was spending money to treat her sister-in-law and several sisters-in-law to a good time. Who could find fault with that?

If Brother Jian's daughter-in-law had a clear mind, she should have refused first without being reminded by others.

After all, the child in her belly is her support for the rest of her life.

Did she forget Mingge's plan so quickly, which had almost been made public?

You are not careful enough yourself, you don't protect your own children, and you take your anger out on others?

It seems that everyone has been praising her so much in the past few months that they have gone a little crazy.

In other words, my own Zhenzhen has a good temper and a good heart. Not only does she not care, she also blames herself.

Alas, this child is too kind-hearted and too indifferent to the people in the mansion. This is also my dereliction of duty as a mother-in-law.

Before, I was protected by Zhenzhen, and seeing that she was steady and generous in her work, I became lazy and left everything to her to handle.

I forgot that although this child is smart and capable, he still lacks the various twists and turns between brothers and sisters-in-law in this wealthy family.

I have to protect myself more and give more advice in the future.

Lan thought of so many things in an instant and looked at Lu Zhenzhen with even more loving eyes.

Just as he was about to say a few words of comfort, he heard someone outside saying that someone was coming from the eldest wife's side.

Lan frowned and patted Lu Zhenzhen's hand, signaling her not to be afraid.

Only then did he let someone in.

The one who came was Wang Dajia, the first wife's companion.

She was the maidservant that came with the first wife, Jin, as a dowry. Later, she was assigned to Wang Da, the second steward of the Marquis's Mansion. She was the most trusted and confidant of the first wife.

Now he is helping the eldest wife to manage all the affairs in the mansion, which is very respectable.

Even if Fu Zhijian saw it, he would call her "Mammy" and would not dare to accept the full greeting.

Normally, the Hu family and their friends were very polite when they met the Wang family.

When Mr. Wang came in, he saw Lu Zhenzhen next to Mrs. Lan at first sight.

His eyes moved, but he still walked forward respectfully and greeted Lan first.

Lan waved her hand, asked her to get up, and asked for a small embroidered stool to be brought over for Wang to sit on.

Then he asked, "Sister-in-law asked you to come over, what's the matter?"

Before Wang Dajia even sat down, he hurriedly stood up and said, "In reply to Third Madam, our Madam asked me to come because she wanted to ask Fourth Madam for a favor."

Lan looked at Wang Dajia with a half-smile: "Oh? Big sister-in-law has so many talented people over there. Is there anything that our Zhenzhen can help with? Our Zhenzhen is young and straightforward. How can she help? Tell me about it."

When Mr. Wang heard this, he knew Lan's attitude.

But he had to convey his wife's words. He gritted his teeth and spoke, "Let Third Madam know that Fourth Madam invited our eldest grandmother to tea today and mentioned going to Wangyue Tower. It's a pity that our eldest grandmother, as you know, is pregnant, so how can she go?"

Lan smiled and said, "What's the problem? If you can't go, then don't go! After all, your health is more important. Doesn't your grandmother even understand this?"

The Wang family hit a snag, swallowed their saliva, and then smiled and said, "Isn't that right? Our wife said the same thing! But you know, Third Madam, it's common for pregnant women to have a bad temper for a while! The eldest grandmother cried so much about not being able to go to Wangyue Tower that she almost had a miscarriage, so -"

She felt embarrassed to say the following words.

Lan practiced Tai Chi, feigning surprise. "You're already in labor, why didn't you call a doctor? You came to see my Zhenzhen, but she's not one to treat illnesses! You should go see a doctor before you delay! After all, crying alone can cause labor, which isn't right, is it?"

At the same time, he added: "If you need any medicinal herbs and don't have them on hand, don't be afraid to bother and tell me. I don't have much else here, but I do have some medicinal herbs-"

She knew from Wang Dajia's bitter smile that if she didn't tell the truth, Lan would have to wait until tomorrow.

After thinking it over, he decided to go for it: "It's our wife who's thinking about it. Our grandmother is angry because she can't go to Wangyue Tower. If she keeps thinking about it, she'll either cry or get angry, which won't be good for the baby in her belly."

"But the eldest grandmother is pregnant now, and she is extremely delicate. I dare not say too much, for fear of making her angry again. I just want to ask the fourth grandmother for help, otherwise we should not go to the Moon Viewing Tower for the time being-"

After he finished speaking, he met Lan's cold eyes, closed his eyes, and finished the rest of his words in one breath: "Of course, our wife also knows that this is unfair to Fourth Grandma! But don't worry, Fourth Grandma, this grievance will not be in vain. Our wife will definitely have a good gift to send you off. Please, Fourth Grandma, for the sake of our past relationship with the eldest grandmother, don't go!"

"I guess Fourth Grandma wouldn't want to see First Grandma get upset and hurt the baby in her womb, right?"

There were a few more words to say, but after seeing Lan's expression, Mr. Wang swallowed them down obediently and didn't dare to say them out loud.

Lan was so angry that she laughed: "Why? Is it your grandmother who is spoiled? Our Zhenzhen is just as spoiled!"

"Your eldest grandmother is pregnant and can't go out. So why should we, the people from the third room, stay at home too? What kind of logic is this? Tell me."

"Even in the imperial court, when those old concubines passed away, they only banned folk celebrations and music and dancing for a month. Why, just because Grandma is pregnant, does that mean my Zhenzhen has to stay indoors for a whole year and can't go out and have some fun?"

"Is this child conceived for my daughter Zhenzhen? Or do you think our third branch is easy to bully now that we don't care about anything? Are you deliberately trying to harass us?"

"This is simply too much! I'm going to ask the old marquis and the old lady to seek justice! Whose family rule is this? My cousin's wife from the next room is pregnant, but my cousin's wife can't go out to play!"

The more Lan spoke, the angrier she became, and the angrier she became.

Pulling Lu Zhenzhen, he went to Ruixuan Hall.

Mrs. Wang was at a loss as to what to do. She had always felt that this was not right.

I have also tried to persuade my wife, but she has become a little stubborn and crazy since the last time the eldest master insisted on giving the purchasing rights to the third grandmother.

I kept saying to myself every day that this baby must be a son.

Otherwise, there will be no place for them in this mansion in the future! With the eldest master's temper, I'm afraid the family business will be handed over to the third master in the future.

He was muttering something, saying that he had to take advantage of the old marquis's life and give birth to a son. He was afraid that the old marquis would pass the title to the eldest master, and then his own master would be made the crown prince.
