After hearing this, Fu's eyes turned cold, and then she smiled at Yue in a soothing manner: "At the beginning, my eldest sister-in-law shouted at the gate of the Fu family that she had no intention of getting married to my family. Naturally, I respected the wishes of my eldest brother and sister-in-law."

"I have already arranged for my son Yuan'er to marry Princess Huide. She is a perfect match and has passed the imperial court's approval. Brother and sister-in-law should find another good husband."

"The only daughter-in-law I have chosen is Princess Huide."

Fu's tone was firm, and Yue looked at her elder sister-in-law and she didn't seem to be angry.

She smiled and said, "Sister, we are looking forward to the day when we can drink tea with our nephew and his wife."

When she returned home, she didn't plan to tell her family that her nephew already had a lover, so as to avoid causing trouble for her sister.

Fu imagined what Mingyuan and Xiao Wan would look like when they got married, her eyes full of smiles and anticipation.

She saw Fu Qiushuang talking obediently with her mother and aunt, her eyes full of clarity, and she didn't look around casually at the furnishings of the Zhao Mansion. She was obviously different from Fu Qiuyue.

Fu sighed inwardly. Fu Qiuyue was her own niece, how could she not love her? But this incident made her realize that she had been blinded by kinship in the past, but she could no longer do that.

Can a niece be closer than a son? Fortunately, I didn’t marry my niece at the beginning, otherwise I would have been heartbroken.

However, Fu Qiushuang and Fu Jinhuai obviously inherited the character of their second brother and his wife. The two siblings sat quietly, a little restrained, but their manners were still outstanding.

Fu was satisfied and asked about Fu Jinhuai's situation after he became a disciple. She also asked Fu Qiushuang to stay with her for a few days.

"I just came back, and the household affairs haven't been sorted out yet. Qiu Shuang is literate, right? Let Qiu Shuang stay here with me and learn how to manage the household. Coincidentally, I have an aunt from the palace in my house who can also teach Qiu Shuang a little bit."

"Qiu Shuang is almost at the age to get married. I'll help look for someone first. If there's a good match, we can settle it first."

"When her uncle and cousin come back, they can also support Qiu Shuang. What do you think, sister-in-law?"

Yue was surprised and happy. Of course she agreed. Their second wife was born out of wedlock, and the family of four and the concubine could only barely make ends meet. The Fu family was not a wealthy family, so any resources they had would definitely be given to the first wife who was born out of wedlock.

They didn't dare to argue. Their son was better than his father. Thanks to his elder sister-in-law, he was able to study under a famous teacher. After all, he would be a scholar in the future and had hope.

Even though he was so cautious, the eldest wife still disliked her nephew. The nephew would often provoke and scold her son, but the eldest wife was sensible and endured it.

At least my son has some provision. As for my daughter, apart from teaching her how to read and sew, I can't teach her the ability to be a housekeeper as a young lady from an official family.

I am just the daughter of a scholar, and when my daughter gets married in the future, I don’t know what kind of good family she can find, so the couple are very anxious.

When the elder sister-in-law said this, it was like a pie in the sky. The couple agreed without hesitation, but they didn’t know how to deal with it at home.

However, Yue couldn't care less. She and her husband were useless, and she didn't seize the opportunity given by her elder sister-in-law. Wouldn't she be a fool?

She could not control what they did, even if she was taking care of her mother-in-law, she wanted her daughter to learn from her elder sister-in-law.

The family of the sixth-rank chief clerk could neither afford nor afford to hire an aunt who came from the palace.

Fu Erlang and Yue nodded in agreement. Fu Qiu Shuang looked at her aunt in surprise and was very happy in her heart.

She didn't expect that her aunt would make such thoughtful arrangements for her. She was no longer a child and knew how important her aunt's arrangements were to her.

At home, my grandmother favors my cousin. When she goes out to visit friends, she always brings my cousin with her. So most people outside only know the eldest daughter and don’t know that there is a second daughter.

Fu Qiushuang learned to read and write with her mother and understood a lot of things, but her mother didn't know much about household affairs and socializing.

Having my aunt by her side not only allows me to learn things but also helps me improve myself.

After all, her aunt is a second-rank lady. When they propose marriage in the future, people will know that she was taught by her aunt who is a second-rank lady. Wouldn't they look up to her?

The parents nodded in agreement, and Fu Qiu Shuang also agreed. Fu smiled and asked what Fu Erlang was doing now.

Fu Erlang's face turned a little red, and he said that he was staying at home now, and would occasionally visit the farm and shop.

Because his father and brother were on duty, it was inconvenient for Hu to go out, so he was the only one who could go and take a look. Yes, take a look, not take care of it.

All the power was in the hands of the Hu family. When he went down to check, he only let his subordinates know that the master would keep an eye on it at all times. He had no right to touch the accounts and personnel transfers.

The Hu family is wary of him. He can do the work, but it is impossible for him to take power.

Fortunately, Fu Erlang is broad-minded and doesn't take it to heart, because even if he cared, it would be useless.
