She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine

Madam Han interrupted Lin's complaint again.

"Ordinarily, as a mother-in-law, I don't think highly of you.

But since you came here, I have never made things difficult for you, given you a sense of intimidation, or been intentionally mean to you.

At the beginning, you were just the daughter of a fourth-rank official."

Lin was speechless and didn't know how to refute. She could only continue to press the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief to hide the embarrassment on her face.

The old lady continued, "How come after you became a mother-in-law, you..."

She snorted out a disdainful particle from her belly. As the eldest daughter-in-law, probably the youngest daughter in the family, she was brought up in pampering and never appreciated the blessings she had.

"Do you know what Fuhui's identity is?"

Lin was indignant. "My daughter-in-law knows that she is a princess, the adopted daughter of the queen, and the beloved daughter of Mo Huai. But! Since she married into our Han family, she is the daughter-in-law of our Han family. Just because of her noble status, can she be disrespectful?

If that happens, wouldn't it be like leaving the reputation of our Duke Ding's Mansion on the ground for others to step on? ! "

Madam Han sighed and looked away, not wanting to even look at the stupid woman.

After Princess Fuhui entered the house, she was polite to everyone around her. She didn't make anyone feel that she was willful or arrogant at all, so how could they say that she was stepping on the reputation of the Duke's Mansion?

But they are just excuses.

This eldest daughter-in-law only does it for her own face.

And from beginning to end, she refused to listen to other people's advice.

In that case, the old lady thought, she didn't need to give her too much face.

"Speaking of which, I have been very tolerant of you since you came in. You have never behaved in front of me, which shows that you have stepped on the face of the Duke's Mansion." Madam Han no longer looked at her, "Starting tomorrow, you will come to Songhe Hall at half past the morning hour to serve you."

Lin was stunned, "Mother, mother...what are you talking about, my daughter-in-law, my daughter-in-law is the wife of the Duke."

Madam Han laughed, "Why, just because you are the wife of a duke, you are no longer my daughter-in-law? Your daughter-in-law who is a princess can serve you in your courtyard without any complaints. Compared with her, how are you noble?"

“My, daughter-in-law…” Lin was speechless again.

The old lady waved her hand in annoyance, "Go ahead, come on time tomorrow."

Lin's mind was confused and he turned around and walked out in a daze.

After walking two steps, she heard Madam Han say behind her: "There is something I forgot to tell you. Your eldest brother's qualification for the Imperial Merchant next year has been eliminated. Maybe he will never be able to join the Imperial Merchant again in the future."

Mo Huai is only targeting the Lin family now. If she doesn't show her attitude, who knows what he will do next.

Lin turned around suddenly, her eyes wide open, "What? Mother, what...what's going on?"

Madam Han looked at her with a half-smile, "What do you think? It's all your credit."

She paused, then added, "If you don't want to embarrass your third brother who is an official, then control your temper."

Lin was stunned, and the blood on his face disappeared in an instant.

Only then did she understand where the real power of her noble daughter-in-law lay.

The two mothers who were dragged away to serve her were just a tickling joke.

……

"Princess, the mother from Songhetang is here." Xia Xiang reported outside the study.

"Let her wait a moment, I'll be there soon." Qiao Zhenzhen put down the book in her hand, wondering what was going on with the old lady.

She had just returned from Songhetang.

When they met, it was a strange mother. After greeting Qiao Zhenzhen, she said, "The old lady said that the first lady will serve the old lady in Songhe Hall from tomorrow, so you don't have to get up early tomorrow, and you don't have to pay respects to the first lady in the evening."

Qiao Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't expect her father to be so efficient.

After thanking his mother, he asked Xia Xiang to stuff a purse into the person's pocket and sent him out.

After Han Zheng returned home, Qiao Zhenzhen told him the news.

Without asking anything, Han Zheng just said, "That's great. You can sleep in later tomorrow and don't have to go to Anyuan and waste your time."

Although he spends a lot of time away from home, he is not completely ignorant of what's going on at home.

I asked her many times if she was tired.

Qiao Zhenzhen always smiled at him and never complained about his mother's behavior in front of him.

He didn't want to interfere too much in the issues between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, especially since his mother's behaviors were all reasonable and logical in the secular world, and not unreasonable, so he couldn't say anything.

I just feel that for someone like his wife, time must be very precious.

It would be a real pity if I just spent my time in Anyuan taking care of my mother-in-law.

So after hearing what Qiao Zhenzhen said, he actually felt relieved.

Qiao Zhenzhen said: "Yes, and Suiyuan will be rebuilt soon. Master stayed in the city for a while before, but he didn't have a good place to stay, so he went back to the temple.

After a few days, when the courtyard is ready, I will send Yiwan to give him a letter and ask him to come and live with us.

I have only studied medicine for a little over a year, and I am still a long way from my master’s level. If I don’t study hard, I will be ashamed of his medical skills.”

Han Zheng nodded and said, "That's true. You are now responsible for entering the palace regularly to check the pulse of His Majesty and the Crown Prince. If nothing happens, it's good. If something happens, you didn't find it..."

"Yes, walking on thin ice, that's what it means. After all, living with the emperor is like living with a tiger. Even though the emperor and his wife treat me very warmly now, that's because I'm useful. Although it's not to say that I will be treated badly because I'm useless, but if a person is more useful, others will think more highly of me."

"Indeed."

Qiao Zhenzhen didn't mention that she had secretly reported to Mo Qingyang and messed with Han Zheng's in-laws.

If Han Zheng will be unhappy after knowing this in the future, then let him be unhappy.

This is called you can't have your cake and eat it too.

However, based on Qiao Zhenzhen's understanding of Han Zheng, he probably won't take it to heart. After all, he didn't rely on his in-laws to secure his position as the crown prince.

On the contrary, the Lin family, as an outside family, has been sucking blood from the Duke's Mansion.

However, Mrs. Lin mistakenly believed that it was all the Lin family's own credit, and it was time for her to clear her mind.

Understand clearly who is the boss in this family and who must not be messed with in this family.

All Lin cares about is the Lin family, herself and her son.

To discipline her, we naturally have to start from these three aspects.

After much thought, Qiao Zhenzhen decided that quarreling was not a good idea. If it ended up with a fight, she, as a daughter-in-law, would be at a natural disadvantage. It would be better to leave the conflict to the elders to resolve and cut off the Lin family's source of trouble.

As someone who has found a lofty goal to achieve, she doesn't have the time to play this kind of house-fighting game with Lin all day long.

Sure enough, Lin became quiet after that.

For this reason, Qiao Zhenzhen gave Old Madam Han a generous gift.

On weekdays, they are very close to the old lady and give each other enough face.
