The prince only allowed me to have a baby, so the pressure is a bit high!

Chapter 26: Stewardship Obtained

After thinking about it, the old lady still didn't say the next words. It was really impossible for Bull to have no grudges in his heart this time.

Ever since Buerhe returned to the mansion, the old lady had sent someone to observe him secretly. Previously, she could have said that because they didn't live together often, she hadn't had the chance to show concern. This year, from the time Buerhe returned to the time she got married, she stayed home for the better part of half a year. But other than asking Buerhe to learn how to manage the household, Jueluo Shi didn't seem to care much about her.

Even Wang Jia, who had just married into the Ulanara Mansion last year, could still receive extra supplements such as bird's nest, shark fin, and ginseng from the Jueluo family on weekdays. However, in Buerhe's small courtyard, there was only the usual share of the mansion.

Even when Fei Yanggu asked whether Buerhe was comfortable living at home, Jueluo just said that the power of housekeeping was in Buerhe's hands, and if she wanted something, she could just take it. With the power of housekeeping in hand, there would be no discomfort in her life.

Men are rough, and since Jueluo is her biological mother, if she says yes, then Fei Yanggu will definitely not doubt it. But when the old lady heard the servants report this matter, she frowned. Whether or not one has the power to manage the household does not conflict with the care of the family. If a newly married and pregnant daughter-in-law can be treated well, then there is no reason not to care for the biological daughter born from one's belly, right?

But what did the Jueluo family do? If there were no illegitimate children in the Ulanara family, others would have thought that Buerhe was a illegitimate daughter!

The old lady couldn't quite understand Jueluo's thoughts. Could it be that she had embarrassed her by taking Burhe away, and later she took a concubine for her son, which made her angry. Because of filial piety, she couldn't vent her anger on herself, so she took it out on Burhe?

Alas, the old lady guessed right this time. Jueluo really thought so. At the beginning, she only hated the old lady because she destroyed her perfect image in her husband's mind and also broke the idea of ​​being a couple for life.

But later, as Burhe grew up, she always got close to the old lady, but was indifferent to her biological mother. At that time, Jueluo transferred her anger to the little Burhe.

For this reason, she doubly loved her eldest daughter, subconsciously ignored her younger daughter, and devoted all her energy to cultivating her eldest daughter.

She found a teacher who was a Jinshi (imperial scholar) for her eldest daughter, arranged lessons in music, chess, calligraphy and painting for her, and often took her to banquets with her. Gradually, her eldest daughter grew up to be very beautiful and became a famous talent in the capital. Everyone praised her for raising a daughter.

However, the youngest daughter raised by the old lady was only known to be frail. Apart from this, the outside world knew nothing else.

How happy and excited she was at that time. She wanted to run to the old lady and show off: "Look, how capable I am. What an outstanding daughter I raised. She is a girl praised by everyone in the capital and admired by countless men. But what about the one you raised?"

However, a sudden change occurred. His eldest daughter, who made him proud, drowned during the palace selection. Then Burhe came back.

What kind of girl was she? She was beautiful, gentle, strong and calm, completely different from the girl she raised. However, this little daughter who had been unknown for more than ten years was warmly received by the whole mansion when she came back. Not only that, her brothers also took out all their treasures and gave them to her.

Then, the palace assigned her two nurses, and she began to teach her housekeeping skills in her spare time. It was then that she realized how talented her youngest daughter was. She was very good at housekeeping and needlework at such a young age. It was just that she had been accustomed to ignoring her for years, so she stubbornly believed that she was ordinary and that the eldest daughter would always be the best.

Finally, she was summoned into the palace by the Empress Dowager, and became the Crown Princess the next day. Then she was busy preparing for the wedding for more than a month. By the time she had calmed down and thought about her relationship with her daughter, Burhe had already married into the deep palace.

It was at this moment that she realized that she had not thought about her eldest daughter for a long time. She had always thought that she loved her eldest daughter the most. It was at this moment that she clearly realized that the person she loved the most was herself, and only herself.

The youngest daughter married into the palace and became the Crown Princess, the future Empress, so her status would only rise. As the mother of the Crown Princess, and with her mother-in-law getting older, the entire Ulanara Mansion was her world, and she would have the final say in everything.

It takes ten years for a daughter-in-law to become a mother-in-law, that's all.

Once in power, Jueluo felt elated, embracing all the admiration from outsiders. Yet, fearing a turbulent future, she was deeply concerned when Concubine Li mentioned that Burhe was too young to bear children. If Burhe's position in Yuqing Palace faltered, her own position within the family would be instantly impacted. She didn't want to be oppressed by her mother-in-law again, watching Burhe focus solely on her grandmother and neglect her. Burhe was a child of hers; no matter what, he was expected to be filial and obedient.

Because of this idea, she agreed with Aunt Li's idea of ​​sending concubines to Yuqing Palace, but her family was from the royal clan, so her nieces could not be sent there. She had quite a few nieces, but she didn't spend much time with her sisters when she was young, and the age gap between them was quite large, so she didn't know much about her nieces.

At this time, Aunt Li suggested bringing her younger sister to be seen by Jueluo. It was said that Aunt Li was the concubine that the old man gave to Fei Yanggu in anger that year. However, because she had been honest over the years, she never took the initiative to seduce Fei Yanggu, and was respectful to Jueluo, so Jueluo had a good impression of her.

However, although it was good, when it came to sending the concubine's younger sister over, Jueluo still disagreed. The reason was that the person was not under her control and could not be trusted.

But Aunt Li is very good at talking. She directly proposed to sell her younger sister to the Ulanara Mansion and become a slave in the mansion. By then, Jueluo would have the indenture contract in her hands, so why would she be afraid of losing control?

After all, Jueluo had experienced very few shameful things, so when she heard that she could sign a contract to sell herself, she felt it was very safe. In addition, she had met Miss Li and found that she was only slightly outstanding in appearance, so she agreed.

So, on the day when Buerhe returned home, Jueluo brought up this matter.

After Bu Er and Pai Xiu left, Jueluo realized that her daughter had already married. Her current identity was the Crown Princess. She had to bow and greet her every time she met her. She was her master, not the person who had just returned home and could be manipulated at will.

It was at this moment that she realized how wrong she was. This meeting did not bring Bull and herself closer together, but instead deepened the gap between mother and daughter, making their relationship even more distant.

Jueluo couldn't help but hate Aunt Li who made the suggestion. She immediately ordered her servants to carry out her order to have Aunt Li confined to her house for a year, kneeling in front of the Buddha statue for an hour every day to pick up Buddha beans. The punishment would end when she reflected on her mistakes and realized them.

At the same time, Li Yi Niang's younger sister was immediately sent out of the house and was not allowed to come back.

After explaining herself, Jueluo wanted to go to Shou'an Court to find Buerhe and say that she didn't mean it, but she took her foot back just as she was about to leave the main courtyard. How could she, as a mother, apologize to her daughter? If she apologized, would she still have any prestige in the mansion? How would her daughter-in-law view her? How could she, as a mother-in-law, still maintain her dignity?

In Shou'an Courtyard, the old lady, who had been hoping that Jueluo would come here to speak softly so that she could cover up and let the matter go, waited and waited, but no one came from the main courtyard and she became angry.

You were wrong in the first place. You made her angry, and then you just ignored it. Fortunately, you thought she had made a lot of progress over the years. It turned out that she hadn't encountered any major problems, so you didn't notice it.

The old lady didn't want to care about it anymore. After all, it was her beloved granddaughter who was wronged this time. There was no reason to let her granddaughter take the initiative to bow her head and ask for peace.

My old bones should be able to hold on for another ten years or so. Buerhe's brothers are also very good to her. I think Buerhe's influence in Yuqing Palace should be big enough in ten years or so. By then, with a few more young princes around her, her life will not be difficult.

As for the Gioro family, let them do whatever they want. Buerhe has grown up safely and happily even though she hasn't enjoyed maternal love for all these years. There is no need to expect that she will be treated sincerely by the Gioro family after becoming the Crown Princess.

Also, Jueluo herself doesn't want to take care of it now. She has been spoiled by Fei Yanggu all these years. He only spoils and takes care of her, educating her son in public and educating her wife behind her back. Now this matter will be left to Fei Yanggu to worry about. She also needs to take better care of herself and spend more time with Buerhe for a few more years to see her really stand on her own!

Time passed quickly. Just when the old lady was still comforting Buerhe, a maid came to the front yard and said that lunch was ready. The old lady asked the servants to bring warm water, helped Buerhe wash her face, and took two cooked eggs to apply hot compress to her already red and swollen eyes.

After Buerhe had washed up, they went to the front yard together.

Two tables were originally prepared in the front yard, and a screen was placed in the middle as a cover. However, when Yinreng learned that the people having lunch were all Buerhe's relatives, he directly ordered his servants to remove the screen.

He also said to Fei Yanggu: "We are all family. Buerhe will not have many opportunities to see his father and brothers in the future. This time we are all family, so let's eat at the same table."

Fei Yanggu was instantly overwhelmed with emotion and his eyes turned red. The prince respected Buerhe so much and always considered his daughter. This made Fei Yanggu feel that the emperor was so good to her and found such a good son-in-law for her.

When the prince saw his father-in-law's eyes were red again, the corners of his mouth twitched. This father-in-law was good in every way except that he was too emotional and would be moved to tears at any time. If it was a weak woman with tears in her eyes, it would be interesting to watch, but a burly man who was always crying would just make people feel disgusted.

Seeing that Burhe, the old lady, and Jueluo all appeared, Yinreng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, someone came to rescue him. This father-in-law was too difficult to deal with. Not only that, Burhe's brothers were like idiots. When they saw Fei Yanggu crying, they could only stand there at a loss, not knowing whether to comfort her or change the subject.

Yinreng had no idea. Because Buerhe's brothers were too honest, Fei Yanggu had told them last night that no matter what happened today, they should stay behind him honestly and let him do what he wanted.

The brothers were all simple-minded. They knew that their father was simple-minded on the outside but smart on the inside, so they treated their father's instructions as if they were an imperial decree and did everything he said.

Moreover, my sister was taken advantage of by a pig when she was so young. Even if it was a royal pig, it was still a pig. My brothers were stupid and had no choice but to let their old father have sex with her.

According to the rules, lunch officially began after the prince sat at the top seat. Then Fei Yanggu started to pick up the wine pot and first praised the royal family. He expressed his gratitude to the emperor for his grace in allowing his family to have a princess. Upon seeing this, the prince hurriedly joined him in drinking a glass.

Then he thanked the Empress Dowager and the Emperor for their rewards, allowing Buer and Jiu Ri to return home and bringing infinite glory to the Ulanara family. Fei Yanggu raised his glass to the prince, and the prince hurriedly picked up the filled glass and drank it all.

Next, they praised the prince for his handsome appearance, extraordinary character and outstanding talent. He also took the trouble to accompany Burhe to his parents' home today and was considerate in every way, which made the whole family very satisfied.

Seeing his father-in-law's praise, Yinreng had no choice but to pick up the full glass and drink it all again. He hadn't even taken a bite of the food, but he had already drunk three cups in a row. Even if he could drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, he couldn't do that. Especially since this wine wasn't just any low-alcohol wine. I wonder where Fei Yanggu got such a good wine, with a rich aroma and endless aftertaste.
