Chapter 186 I can't explain it
It’s not that no one can deal with her, but this person is of the same generation as the Empress Dowager. Those who are alive nowadays are basically the younger generation. Filial piety has always been the most important thing, especially for people of high status. Who would tarnish their own reputation!
Unless this old lady has really done something unforgivable, at her age, she is smarter than anyone else and people will definitely not touch her!
If it's just being a little arrogant, what's the problem?
Wen Yao had a very good chat with the old lady, and also had a happy chat with her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law. They made plans to go somewhere together on a certain day, and she also invited them to see the latest bags.
"You guys chat here, I'll go over there and take a look," Wen Yao said to them and then went in another direction. She greeted them from a distance and it seemed that they knew each other.
The Third Lady and the others no longer wanted to follow Wen Yao around, so they decisively chose to return to their own place and find a place to chat, otherwise it would be so awkward!
The Fourth and Seventh Concubines didn't mind either, they just followed the crowd.
The Seventh Lady looked at the Fifth Lady, "This is such a good opportunity, why don't you go and chat with your Ninth Sister-in-law? In fact, it's not that scary when you chat, we are all the same." She didn't think it was scary, but now that their Ninth Sister-in-law was here, and the Third Sister-in-law and the others called her over, there was no need for her to go over.
However, they have to go over there later, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
"Naqi, you know, let's wait until there is a banquet in a while," the Fifth Lady shook her head and whispered to the Seventh Lady as she approached her.
There was some helplessness on the Fifth Lady's face. She had thought of all this a long time ago. After all, no one was a fool. Many people were aware of her calculations. But only if she let the illegitimate sons and daughters survive could she talk to the people here!
Otherwise, as soon as she opened her mouth, she would be met with ridicule, sarcasm or...ignorance.
Even though she was the Fifth Lady, this group of people would not really take her seriously!
It is said that the Empress Dowager now holds a very high status, but so what, what impact does it have on others?
Almost negligible!
The Fifth Lady smiled and looked at the Fourth Lady, "Fourth Sister-in-law, how are you doing? Is that Li still causing trouble?"
The fourth lady smiled and looked in the direction of Yinzhen in the distance. When their eyes met, the fourth lady's expression became a little gentler. "Li is very smart. She knows who to rely on. When her support is gone, she knows what to do. She is doing well now. She has been protecting her belly. The fourth master can sleep well now."
"Fourth sister-in-law, look at what you said, it's because Fourth sister-in-law did a good job, it's not that Li is self-aware," Eighth Lady really thinks that Fourth Lady is the best as a concubine in her heart. Eighth Lady also glanced in the direction of Hesheli Hengruo and chuckled, "That person is also very quiet."
The Third Lady was now interested, because she really didn't want to hear about the Fifth Brother's wife's house. It was a mess, and she felt wronged, but... forget it, it was bad, so she decided to listen to the Eighth Brother's wife's house. She found it very interesting, "Hui Shu, didn't that girl cause any trouble? Didn't she say she liked the Eighth Master?"
The Seventh Lady poked the Third Lady, and the Third Lady pulled the Seventh Lady, "Naqi, don't pull me, this is not a secret. If that Hesheli Hengruo wants to plot against that idiot Wen Yao, how can he be the quiet one? I don't believe it!"
If you believe it, you will become a fool like Wen Yao!
The Fourth Lady lowered her head and held back her laughter. Only the Third Sister-in-law dared to scold the Ninth Brother's Wife like that. "I remember when the Ninth Brother's Wife told us about it, she scolded the Third Sister-in-law like that!"
"(ˉ▽￣～) Tsk~~ That idiot of hers is a coward, she can only bully me at home, but you don't know that when I was a kid, she scolded me and I pushed her, so her father came to my house and threw a tantrum. Don't you think it's infuriating? The point is that my father is not as good at talking as her father, so I am the one who suffers in the end. Can I swallow this?"
The third lady got angry when she thought of this, "Guess what happened?"
"Do we need to guess? It keeps repeating, and everyone else thinks you're bullying her," Eighth Lady couldn't help laughing. "Third sister-in-law, why don't you just move your mouth? How could you push Ninth Brother's wife? She was so young at the time."
"Hui Shu, stop laughing, you seem to be very happy," the Third Lady sat dignified, wanting to roll her eyes but it was not appropriate in this situation, so she smiled without showing her teeth, "I won't move my mouth, because... I have no reason!"
The Third Lady did not hide anything. Thinking of this, she laughed out loud, "Wen Yao is full of lies. I can't argue with her. I'm still very angry. Who told me to..." The Third Lady looked in Wen Yao's direction, "Whose family is like Wen Yao's? The concubine treats the legitimate daughter like her own daughter. The family is extremely harmonious. It's really enviable."
She is still envious and jealous. She quarrels with Wen Yao from time to time, which makes her feel more balanced. But Wen Yao is such a fool and never bears grudges. She will take revenge soon!
This way she will feel at ease!
"It's really enviable," Fifth Lady looked in Wen Yao's direction, "I think everyone is envious of Ninth Brother's wife."
"I'm not envious. I'm doing well myself. Aren't we doing well now?" The Seventh Lady said with a smile, "My Seventh Master is doing well, and the sisters in the backyard are also doing well. Third sister-in-law, aren't you doing well now? Why envy others?"
"Seventh brother's wife is right," Third Lady didn't dwell on this. She and Wen Yao were used to quarreling with each other. That fool Wen Yao couldn't stand her doing harm to the child. Third Lady sneered in her heart. Not doing it?
Those people in the backyard are not peaceful either, not all of them are my Ninth Brother!
The Third Lady knew very well that her Ninth Brother was different from the other princes, but she couldn't say how. Her Ninth Brother also talked about taking a concubine and having princesses in the backyard, but she always felt that her Ninth Brother was very distant from others, but very close to Wen Yao!
It was as if the two of them were a world, and everyone else was a world!
The Third Lady looked at the Eighth Lady, "Don't talk about me and idiot Yao, what's wrong with that person? Can he be quiet?"
The Eighth Lady glanced in the direction of Hesheli and said, "Who knows, does Third Sister-in-law think I can detect it?" She really didn't realize what Hesheli was trying to do. She didn't consummate the marriage nor compete for favor. She was very respectful in front of her. As long as the Eighth Master came to the main courtyard, she would leave. She was very well-behaved!
So the Eighth Lady wanted to label her as someone who wanted to fool herself first, gain her trust, and then deal her a fatal blow!
But the Eighth Lady really didn’t realize how much Hesheli loved the Eighth Master. She didn’t notice it!
The Eighth Lady didn't know, but the Seventh Lady knew what Hesheli Hengruo was thinking at a glance, "Sister-in-law, do you mind if the Eighth Master has a concubine's son?"
"Eighth Master will eventually have illegitimate sons and daughters," Eighth Lady laughed at herself. Should she mind it or not? Then she looked at Seventh Lady, "What does Seventh Lady mean by that?"
