The mistress of the Hou family worked herself to death, and she did not serve after her rebirth

Although she had expected Shen to say this, Pei Jiuniang still couldn't help feeling a little chilled when she actually heard it.

When she was a child, she also longed for Shen to treat her well. At that time, she naively thought that as long as she was good enough and filial enough, Shen would treat her the same way as Shisan Niang and Shen Yuyan.

That's why in her previous life, she tried hard to be a good daughter who always answered requests.

But what do we get in the end?

Pei Jiuniang felt a sinking feeling in her heart.

He stared at Shen without saying anything.

Shen thought it was possible, and continued to persuade with a smile, "Nine Lady, you are already the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion. Although you have no talent or virtue, you are lucky. This is your destiny. You should now be a good mistress of the Marquis' Mansion, serve your mother-in-law, be considerate to your husband, and raise your children. This is what you should do.

As for that so-called teacher, you'd better not be one. After all, the teacher only sounds good, but it is actually of no use to you, and you have to spend time and effort on it.

Your mother is an experienced person and you are her real mother and daughter, so she will give you advice.

If you neglect the Marquisate, your position will be in jeopardy."

"So, mother is doing this for my own good?"

Pei Jiuniang sneered. She had no talent or virtue. It turned out that she was so unbearable in Shen's eyes.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath to prevent herself from showing her sadness.

"Of course it's for your own good. You are my flesh and blood. How could I harm you? You are my child and Yuyan is my niece. You are sisters. You should take good care of your mansion. Yuyan has the status of a teacher in the Imperial College. She may not be able to marry into a good family in the future. You sisters should work together in the future. There will always be a place for you in the capital."

The more Shen spoke, the more excited she became, as if she had already seen the scene of Shen Yuyan marrying into a high-ranking official despite being a teacher at the Imperial College and a member of the sixth rank. Her somewhat aged face even looked bright and energetic.

Liu held Gu Tingzhi's hand and walked along the way, complaining to him about Pei Jiuniang's faults. It was a mistake for a woman to show up in public. Since she could recommend people, she should think of her own family first, instead of thinking of her mother's family for all the good things.

Also, Pei Jiuniang had caused Gu Lanzhi to be unable to hold her head up in front of the Chu family, and this was something she should have made up for.

Gu Tingzhi didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say to Liu. After all, it was only a short time and she had already forgotten that Gu Lanzhi had brought it upon herself. Now she had the nerve to blame Pei Jiuniang.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Liu realized that what she had just said was a bit extreme, so she didn't continue.

In a blink of an eye, the group arrived outside the main courtyard. Liu saw Shen at a glance and just happened to hear Shen telling Pei Jiuniang to give up the position of teacher and the sixth rank to Shen Yuyan.

Liu couldn't help herself and said to Gu Tingzhi who was standing beside her with a serious face, "Did you hear me? I told you that the Pei family would come with bad intentions. Why? Pei Jiuniang was able to become a tutor at the Imperial College, and she was a sixth-rank official. It was all thanks to our Marquis' Mansion. No matter what, we can't let outsiders take advantage of her."

As Liu spoke, she looked at Gu Tingzhi beside her. Seeing his face becoming more serious, she was immediately delighted. Seeing Gu Tingzhi walking in, she hurriedly followed him, saying, "Tingzhi, you can't be confused. Your sister is your sister after all. Can you watch her being excluded by the Chu family?"

"This Pei Jiuniang, I used to think she was fair, but she gets confused when it comes to the Pei family. And what about Shen Yuyan, what kind of person is she? Giving the teacher to her would only embarrass her. If someone doesn't know, they would think there is no one left in our mansion..."

Liu became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She was about to step forward and curse when she heard Pei Jiuniang's voice.

"You have a point..."

"Yes, you are..."

Shen didn't expect Pei Jiuniang to be so obedient suddenly. She was very happy for a moment, but was interrupted by Pei Jiuniang.

"Sister Yuyan is very smart. She is capable of teaching a simple foreign language. Don't worry. I will tell the chief priest tomorrow and ask him to tell His Majesty to appoint Sister Yuyan as your teacher. However, I still have to remind you that teaching a foreign language is a serious matter. If there is any mistake, it will lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan."

"Wha, what?!"

Shen was stunned.

Foreign language?

what is that?
