When the third lady saw Madam Cao and her people leaving, she became extremely anxious.

She stepped forward to block it, forcing a smile on her face: "Madam, Madam, it is my fault. You are right to blame me. I apologize to you here."

After she said this, she bowed.

Madam Cao sneered: "I dare not blame you. How high is the Wu family? Even the princess and the princess don't care about it."

Madam Cao said as she bowed to Yan Ruyu: "I dare not be disrespectful to the princess. Have you ever bowed to her since you left home?"

The third lady's breathing became slightly choked, and she turned back to Yan Ruyu and the others.

"Princess, Princess, Madam, I am impolite. I apologize to you all."

Mrs. Cao glanced quickly at Yan Ruyu, who smiled and nodded.

Mrs. Cao then snorted, "Hmph, go in and call your head room!"

The third lady was unhappy, but she didn't dare to show it, so she quickly stood up and said, "Yes."

She turned around and hurried inside, and as she turned the corner she angrily threw the handkerchief away.

The maid whispered, "Mrs. Cao is too much. Aren't you the mistress of the house? What's the point of calling that person?"

The Third Madam glanced at her and shook off her arm: "Shut up, you were silent just now, but now you are excited."

Mrs. Wu was not in the greenhouse at all. She was in the front hall, chatting with a few ladies who had arrived earlier.

She turned around and saw the third lady coming in. Although she couldn't tell anything from her expression, based on her understanding of the third wife's family, it was obvious that she was unhappy.

The third lady came closer and bowed quickly, "Sister-in-law, so you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time. The governor's wife has arrived. You should go out to greet her quickly, otherwise she will blame us for being rude."

The other ladies looked at each other in bewilderment. When they came, they did not let the master of the Wu family go out to greet them.

The wife of the governor is really arrogant.

Madam Wu felt vaguely that what was said was not right, but it was not easy to ask. She turned around and said a few polite words to the ladies, then turned around and walked out of the mansion.

As soon as the third lady entered the house, Madam Cao couldn't help but chuckle.

"Princess, are these few words of mine okay? You've got her in your hands!"

The eldest lady said, "That's great. Let me act it out when we have a chance. Look at the Wu family. They have a serious problem of looking down on others."

The eldest lady came from the capital and had seen everything. She had seen countless plays of flattering the powerful and bullying the weak.

She saw through the behavior of the old woman and the third lady at a glance.

Madam Cao snorted and laughed: "Then cure her problem. Anyway, we won't have any contact in the future."

As they were talking, Mrs. Wu and the third wife came out together.

Yan Ruyu looked at Madam Wu. She had a pretty and dignified appearance, and was less shrewd and calculating than the third lady.

Mrs. Wu stepped forward and greeted everyone one by one, proceeding and retreating in a measured manner.

The Third Madam said, "Madam Cao, my sister-in-law went to your house before..."

Before she finished speaking, Madam Wu interrupted and said, "Madam Cao is busy, and she has a daughter and a little grandson to take care of. It's not the right time for me to go. Everyone, please come in and have a good talk."

The Third Lady was still thinking of using the fact that Lady Cao had not met Lady Wu for several times to save Lady Wu's face, but she was unexpectedly interrupted by Lady Wu.

I can't help feeling dissatisfied.

Madam Cao said calmly, "Madam San wants to remind me that I didn't have time to see you before. It was my fault, right?"

The third wife was startled, and hurriedly said with a smile: "How could it be? I..."

Mrs. Cao was annoyed when she saw her fake smile. She snorted coldly, ignored her and walked straight inside.

The third wife ended up in the end and was filled with resentment.

As soon as they entered the front hall, the other ladies also stood up to greet them.

Mrs. Cao glanced at them all; they were all familiar faces.

Among them was a Mrs. Lu. Her husband worked under Governor Cao, and she had a good relationship with Mrs. Cao.

Madam Wu turned to look at Yan Ruyu and was about to ask her to sit in the first guest seat when Madam Three stepped forward and said, "Madam Cao, please take a seat."

Madam Cao glanced at her and said, "Madam, didn't Madam Wu teach you the rules? With the princess and the princess here, is this the seat that I can sit in?"

Madam Cao said to Yan Ruyu, "Princess, please take a seat."

Yan Ruyu was not polite and looked at the eldest lady. The eldest lady nodded slightly. She sat down and the eldest lady sat next to her.

Huo Changhe is the Prince of Zhennan, Yan Ruyu is the princess consort, and the first lady is the prince's mother and also the elder, so she should have one.

Princess Mingzhao sat down next to the eldest lady, and then Madam Cao sat down and asked Madam Lu to sit next to her.

The Third Madam was rebuked several times, and she felt a little embarrassed: "Please sit down for a moment, I will go and invite my mother."

She turned and left, and Mrs. Lu took the opportunity to whisper what had happened before.

When Mrs. Cao heard this, her eyebrows raised.

Old Madam Wu was getting a little impatient. Now that Madam Cao had arrived, she should go to the front yard as well. She waited and waited, but the Third Madam did not come to deliver the letter. She could no longer hold back and led people to the front yard.

Halfway through the journey, I met the third lady.

When the Third Madam saw her, her eyes turned red: "Mother..."

The old lady was puzzled: "What's wrong? Who offended you?"

The Third Lady pressed her handkerchief against her eyes and said, "It's nothing. It's such a good day. Don't spoil your fun."

"No, tell me the truth. What happened? Are you from the palace?"

"No," the third lady lowered her head, "please don't ask. My daughter-in-law doesn't want others to say that I am complaining."

Madam Wu looked at the little maid: "You say."

The little maid hurriedly said, "The Third Madam went out to greet them. For some reason, Madam Cao was very unhappy and even asked about the First Madam, insisting that the First Madam go to greet them."

"Did she go?"

"Yes, they are all in the front hall now. The first seat for distinguished guests has been returned to Princess Zhennan."

What the little maid said was all true, but when she nitpicked, things became completely different.

"This bitch!" Madam Wu was furious when she heard this. "How dare she do that! That position was reserved for Madam Cao. This flower-viewing party was just to show the power of the Zhennan Palace. Does this bitch know that she is honoring them so much?"

"Let's go! To the front hall."

Old Madam Wu walked towards the front hall angrily, but stopped after a few steps.

"No, I'll go directly to the flower hall. Third brother, go and invite them to the flower hall."

"Yes."

The third lady turned around, and the tears in her eyes disappeared completely.

Yan Ruyu secretly calculated the time when the Third Madam would leave, and she had a premonition that something was going to happen. These people really were constantly scheming.

She suddenly felt that being in exile was not bad. She could ride in a car all the way, not afraid of wind and rain, and she didn't have to play these superficial tricks or deal with these boring things.

The eldest lady whispered, "What? Are you bored?"

Yan Ruyu smiled lightly: "Mother is wise."

"You're lucky you're not in the capital, otherwise, there would be banquets like this every other day, comparing clothes, jewelry, and all kinds of things. I was exhausted at that time, and now thinking about it, it's really ridiculous."

The eldest lady changed the subject: "I dare say that this old lady Wu will not come."
