Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Chen Zhilan took a deep breath and said, "Yes, I sent it to you. However, I made those snacks myself, not my wife. Such generous rewards should not be given to her!"

Madam Zhan didn't care about anything else. She hurried forward to explain: "I can testify that those snacks were indeed made by her. Since the eldest princess likes them so much, she should give them to Zhilan as a reward!"

Nanny Cheng couldn't help but frown. "You guys have confused me. She clearly said that she received orders from the Marquis' wife to deliver snacks. What's the trick here?"

Madam Zhan hurriedly shook her head: "There's nothing fishy going on. Madam, just give her the generous reward. After all, it belongs to our mansion!"

Matron Cheng scolded her in dissatisfaction, "How dare you! How can the princess's order be so unclear? I wonder what this young lady's status is in the Marquis' Mansion?"

Chen Zhilan murmured with a stiff face: "I, I am the prince's concubine!"

She spoke more and more quietly, wishing she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

It is so humiliating for her to be a talented woman in the court and yet she has to call herself a concubine.

But Nanny Cheng raised her voice and asked, "Tell me, what exactly are you? Speak louder. I'm an old woman with poor hearing. Are you speaking so quietly for the Earth God to hear?"

Lin Yiwan, who was standing next to them, could hardly hold back her laughter. This nanny from the Princess's Mansion was truly an expert at making people laugh.

She tore off Chen Zhilan's face and stepped on it hard.

Sure enough, Chen Zhilan lowered her head even lower, and her hands hidden in her sleeves almost tore the handkerchief in her hands.

She closed her eyes tightly, gritted her teeth and replied, "I am the prince's concubine!"

Matron Cheng scolded without hesitation, "How dare a concubine act so presumptuously in front of the Princess? Is this the rule of your mansion?"

Old Madam Zhan was so frightened that she quickly apologized: "Madam, please don't bother with her. She lost her manners in a moment of desperation, but the pastry was indeed made by her. She made it!"

Nanny Cheng asked sullenly, "Since she made it, I'd like to ask on behalf of the eldest princess, what's the filling in your pastry?"

When Chen Zhilan heard this, a look of pride appeared on her face.

She made the snacks herself, so of course she remembered what the fillings were.

Now, the reward should fall on her.

She spoke without hesitation, "I made osmanthus cake, but considering the princess's taste, I added some almonds and ground chestnuts!"

Aunt Cheng couldn't help but frown. She asked in surprise, "No more?"

Chen Zhilan blinked her eyes: "No!" Could it be that she was going to reveal that she used animal oil to make the noodles?

Just as she was hesitating, Aunt Cheng yelled, "Nonsense! You don't even have the most important ingredients, and you still dare to claim the credit! You're so bold!"

Chen Zhilan was so frightened that her whole body trembled. She asked in a trembling voice, "What other fillings are there?"

Nanny Cheng interrupted with a grim expression, "Don't worry about the fillings. You are claiming credit anyway. Madam Zhan, this is your concubine. How do you plan to deal with her and give the princess an explanation?"

Old Madam Zhan didn't expect things to turn out like this. The snacks were clearly made by Chen Zhilan herself, so why did they look different when they were delivered to the eldest princess?

What went wrong?

While she was pondering this, Lin Yiwan spoke up, "I'm sorry to have made fun of Madam Cheng. You can see that the old lady is old, and with so many people in the mansion, she can't manage it all. I dare to ask the Princess to send a few experienced and prudent maids to teach her some etiquette, so that she won't embarrass herself in front of others in the future!"
