Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Yuan Ruolan was very satisfied with her daughter's performance. She was graceful, modest and polite. When everyone moved to the flower hall in front to eat, she secretly pulled Anan aside and reminded him, "Mrs. Teng was very generous. She gave everyone gifts yesterday. They were very valuable. You can ask them to give gifts in return quietly."

At this point, she looked at Anan who was looking silly, and then she said, "Forget it, I'll tell Madam Su later. Anyway, I'm afraid you don't know what's in the house."

Anan frowned and said unconvincedly, "Mother, this is true, how could it be possible?"

"Okay, let me ask you a simple question. How many servants are there in your old house now?" Yuan Ruolan looked at him with a smile.

Anan was speechless for a moment.

"How much did it cost for the day?" Yuan Ruolan asked again, "How did your mother-in-law maintain the two houses she bought over the years?"

Anan blushed for a moment, then held his mother's hand tightly and said coquettishly, "Don't say anything more, Mom, can't I go back later to see you?"

Yuan Ruolan couldn't help but touch her nose and sighed, "My son-in-law treats you very well, but he is busy outside. You should worry more about the things at home. It can be regarded as helping him, so that he can work outside with peace of mind. Look at you, you eat and sleep all day long, and come back to pester others and prevent them from doing their work!"

Anan glanced back at Madam Su. Yuan Ruolan turned her head and said with a smile, "Don't look at Madam Su, I asked her! My daughter is well-known for her talent in the entire Beijing business circle. She must be an outstanding housekeeper and director. But now she has become a spoiled little lady. She sleeps all day and has to wait for her husband to come home to deal with the family affairs. Is this reasonable?"

Anan stuck out her tongue. If Yuan Ruolan complained about their marital love, she would still think she could refute Yi Xi Ai's words, but now these words made her blush. She really had never thought about how the old house was dealt with. In addition, Jinyun also said today that Hongze was risking his life outside to provide her with a roof over her head. She felt annoyed and ashamed in her heart and could only smile awkwardly.

"The last time the son-in-law was detained in the palace, we all saw clearly that Earl Anyuan never treated them brothers as his own children. Now that you are the eldest sister-in-law, you should consider more for his brothers." Yuan Ruolan reminded her again.

"Don't worry about this, mother!" She had finally done this. Anan patted her chest and said with a smile, "Except for the few things Hongze asked me to bring back from the palace, I have kept all of them for him! Don't worry!"

Yuan Ruolan wanted to say something to her, but when they arrived at the flower hall, everyone was seated, so she quickly stopped talking and pulled Anan forward to sit down.

There were no such things at my uncle's house. Although men and women sat at different tables, they were only separated by a short half-wall, so both sides were lively. Anan saw Master Teng sitting between his two uncles, chatting and laughing with a large family of relatives.

Xiao Fu stared at the fish on the plate with a dull look, poked it twice with her chopsticks, and picked at the meat inside in a daze. Seeing her like this, Song Zhi took the initiative to stretch out her chopsticks, picked up the most tender piece of the fish belly and put it into Xiao Fu's bowl, and whispered in a low voice, "Sister Fu, this is for you."

Xiao Fu was stunned for a moment, turned around to look at Song Zhi, and forced a smile.

The two aunts were busy introducing their families to Mrs. Teng, and the elders were busy chatting and greeting each other. Songzhi was very timid and never participated in any topic. She didn't dare to look up at anyone and kept her head down the whole time. Among the people at the table, she seemed to only recognize Xiaofu and only talked to her and only picked food for her.

Xiao Fu was in a bad mood, but she felt sorry for the girl, so she was extra patient with her.
