Fang Yueru's happiness was of course all fake. With so many people at home who were causing trouble for her, how could she be coaxed away with just a few words?

She is no longer the stupid woman who could be emotionally affected by Lin Yanming's words and deeds. Everything she shows now is just to make Lin Yanming relax his vigilance.

In front of everyone today, Fang Yueru couldn't do anything to Yuan Ruomei.

Instead, she had to act more generous and kind, so that she could recover some of the face she had lost in front of everyone.

Early this morning, the old lady sent people to each room to inform everyone to go to Xinyuan Hall to meet Mr. Yuan and the two children and get to know each other.

Although Mrs. Yuan is just a concubine, she is still a newcomer to the Hou family, and she must be known to everyone.

Aunt Liu and Fifth Miss Lin Qinghan only found out that Lin Yanming had welcomed the foreign concubine into the house after receiving the notice.

While the two were shocked, they also understood more clearly the status of their mother and daughter in the Hou Mansion. They were afraid that they would be the last to know about this matter in the entire Hou Mansion.

Yuan's entry into the mansion has no substantial impact on the two of them. Yuan and Liu are both concubines, and Yuan's arrival will not change Liu's status.

They just need to greet their mistress on time as before, and try to reduce their presence as much as possible at other times.

Over the years, mother and daughter have been living cautiously. Fang Yueru has never threatened them in the slightest, and Fang Yueru has never felt sorry for them.

To be precise, I don't bother to care about them, because there is no need at all.

Their mother and daughter are also satisfied with this kind of life. They don't have to worry about food and drink, they don't have to worry about anything, and no one will come to trouble them for no reason.

Xinyuantang

Xinyuan Hall is now full of people, and even the old Marquis is here today.

When the old lady saw that everyone had arrived, she slowly spoke: "I think everyone already knows why I summoned everyone here today. Yesterday, there was a new person in the third room, which is considered a happy event, so I will ask everyone to come today. See you."

Everyone had already known about this, and no one had any special changes in their expressions after hearing the old lady's words. Lin Yanming was the only one who was very happy.

Logically speaking, Yuan Ruomei's identity does not require everyone to come to meet, but the old lady organized the meeting today.

Although it is mainly for the sake of the children, she also pays some attention to Yuan Ruomei.

Lin Yanming valued Yuan Ruomei in her heart and was naturally happy for her.

"Huazhu, let Mrs. Yuan come in."

"Yes, old lady."

Huazhu took the order and left, and soon he helped Yuan in.

When everyone saw Mrs. Yuan being helped away by Huazhu, they were still wondering at first that Ms. Yuan was such a tall girl that she let the old lady's maid carry her away.

Then they saw Yuanshi carefully holding her belly while walking. Only then did everyone realize that Yuanshi's belly was slightly bulging, and it looked like it had been there for some time.

Everyone was a little surprised. They heard that Yuan had given birth to a child for Lin Yanming, but no one knew that she was pregnant again.

Apart from Lin Yanming, the only people here who knew about this were the old Marquis and his wife and Lin Qingyao.

The most shocked person was Fang Yueru and her daughter. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with resentment.

Fang Yueru dug her nails into her flesh unknowingly and trembled slightly with anger.

The old lady tried to persuade her that day, but she didn't mention Yuan's pregnancy at all.

If she had known about this in advance, she would not have agreed to let Yuan in so easily.

Lin Yanming has reached middle age, and it is difficult for him to have any more children. Now that Mrs. Yuan is pregnant, one can imagine how much Lin Yanming and Mr. Hou and his wife attach great importance to this child.

Fang Yueru deeply felt that her position was threatened, and the tricks she had thought of before to torture Yuan were probably useless.

Since Yuan is pregnant, she will naturally receive preferential treatment, and Fang Yueru is afraid that she will be criticized even if she is embarrassed.

Thinking of this, Fang Yueru looked at the old lady with some resentment, but the old lady seemed to have predicted in advance that Fang Yueru would look over, and did not give her a look at all.

The old lady felt guilty at this time. She deliberately did not tell Fang Yueru that Mrs. Yuan was pregnant that day.

On the one hand, she was worried that Fang Yueru would not allow Yuan to enter the house because of this, and on the other hand, she was also worried that the jealous Fang Yueru would find ways to harm her grandson.

In the eyes of the old couple, the heir was naturally more important than anything else, and she had to keep the child in Yuan's belly.

With the support of Huazhu, Yuan first saluted the old Marquis and his wife, but was interrupted by the old lady when she was about to salute others.

"Ms. Yuan, you are pregnant, so I will skip today's ceremony. Third child, just introduce me to Mrs. Yuan one by one."

Fang Yueru's face turned even worse when she heard that the old lady gave Yuan family preferential treatment.

She was already prepared to receive Yuan's gift today, but she didn't expect that the old lady spared Yuan's gift.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Yuan responded obediently: "Thank you, madam."

Lin Yanming was very happy and quickly stood up to introduce everyone to Yuan Ruomei one by one.

Yuan Ruomei was inconvenient and got permission from the old lady, so she nodded and greeted everyone.

Others did not pick on the Yuan family. After all, Yuan family is in a special period now.

Besides, the old lady had already spoken, and they had nothing to say.

Fang Yueru was very dissatisfied, and her face became increasingly ugly.

When Yuan looked at everyone like this, they naturally discovered that Fang Yueru's expression was different from the others.

That's it for everyone else. As a concubine, she should give Fang Yueru a big gift today.

If she really doesn't salute Fang Yueru today relying on the old lady's permission, then her life will definitely not be easy in the future.

So Yuan Ruomei said respectfully: "Old Madam, today is the first day that I have entered the house, so I should give a big salute to my sister. Although I am pregnant, I can't be arrogant because of my favor. That would be disrespectful to my sister. Please also ask Old Madam. permit."

The old lady was very satisfied with Yuan's understanding of etiquette, so she no longer stopped her.

"Since you have this intention, I, the old woman, won't stop you. Just be careful."

Yuan Ruomei smiled when she heard this and said softly: "Yes, old lady."

Fang Yueru, who was sitting next to her, was quite happy at the moment, thinking that this Yuan family was quite sensible.

If Mrs. Yuan dares not to salute her today, she will definitely find a way to get it back later.

Mrs. Yuan slowly knelt down and gave Fang Yueru a big salute.

Huaping was very discerning and brought a cup of tea. Yuan took the cup and brought it to Fang Yueru, saying respectfully: "Sister, please have tea."

Yuan's etiquette was thorough, and Fang Yueru couldn't find any fault with it.

Besides, Mrs. Yuan had already obtained the old lady's permission, so she still bowed to her according to the rules. If she didn't treat Mr. Yuan more kindly, it would be her fault.
