I'm reborn, so it's not too much to kill the one who traveled through the book, right?

The old lady couldn't refuse Xiao Chen's request.

After all, the Gong and Chen families are still in-laws. Although Mrs. Chen has done a lot of bad things, she is not from the same branch of Mrs. Chen.

Besides, for more than a year, Xiao Chen had been staying in the yard every day without causing any trouble, and now she was sick. Considering all these, she couldn't chase her away.

But the daughter-in-law only told her mother-in-law after she had brought everyone here, so the old lady couldn't help feeling unhappy.

"Since you're here, just stay!" said the old lady calmly.

A smile appeared on Little Chen's pale face, "Thank you, mother, for your consideration for your daughter-in-law."

After saying that, she turned around and glanced at her niece who was hiding behind her, "Zhi'er, why don't you come up and thank the old lady."

Chen Zhier's face flushed red. She took two steps forward and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Thank you, old lady."

The old lady looked at the thin girl in front of her, her expression relaxed, "Your aunt has not been in good health for more than a year. Now that you have come here with great difficulty, you can live with your aunt and be intimate with her." The old lady did not mention the matter of opening a separate courtyard for her niece from Chen's natal family.

Everyone in this mansion knew how difficult life was in the past.

Since Shen Rong and his wife came, life in this mansion has gradually improved.

It can be said that Shen Rong and his wife have made great contributions to the current status of Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

If the old lady's relatives from her mother's side, or relatives from the Shen family, came to stay at the mansion, there would naturally be no problem in cleaning up a yard to entertain the guests.

But what is the relationship between Shen Rong and his wife and Xiao Chen?

Apart from anything else, the fact that her grandson became a fool was closely related to her daughter-in-law.

The old lady doesn't have the nerve to ask her grandson's wife for this.

Cleaning a yard is simple, but you still have to prepare all the supplies in the yard, as well as servants, maids, etc...

All these scattered expenses would cost quite a bit of money!

It is said that this money was paid by the public, but in fact, wasn't it paid by Shen Rong and his wife?

The old lady felt that she was not confident enough to make the decision.

When Xiao Chen heard what the old lady said, she didn't want to mention opening a separate courtyard for her niece.

She smiled and praised the old lady for being considerate to her daughter-in-law, but only she knew what she was thinking in her heart.

"Don't worry, old madam, Zhier will take good care of your aunt." Chen Zhier smiled shyly.

Chen Zhier knew from a young age that her aunt's family had fallen into poverty.

She had been to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion before and had seen many deserted courtyards in the mansion. She used to think that the Pingyang Marquis Mansion was just a bigger house and was no different from the homes of ordinary people like them.

But this time, she saw a different mansion. It was no longer as desolate and deserted as before. There were many more servants than before. The whole mansion was full of flowers and fruits. The mansion was full of vitality and looked lively.

After Chen Zhier arrived, she no longer wanted to go back to that cramped home.

The old lady really had nothing to say to Xiao Chen. She looked at Xiao Chen with a tired look on her face and said, "You are not feeling well, why bother making this trip? Just let the servant come and tell her. All right, go back and rest!"

The old lady asked them to leave, so Chen had no choice but to take her niece and leave Minghui Courtyard.

Chen Zhier followed her aunt out of Minghui Courtyard. She saw the pomegranate flowers on the pomegranate tree by the path and couldn't help asking Xiao Chen, "Aunt, I heard that the fruits and vegetables in the fresh food shop in the west of the city are grown in the mansion. Is this true?"

Who in the capital doesn't know about the Fresh Food Shop in Pingyouhou Mansion?

Last year, watermelons were only sold in Shixianfang in the whole capital. I heard that they were grown in an empty yard in the mansion. During that time, many people were jealous of the money made by selling watermelons in Pingyang Marquis Mansion.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen looked at the pomegranate tree beside her with disdain, curled her lips and said, "Huh! A country girl like you actually did something ridiculous!"

Xiao Chen has been in the capital for so many years, but she has never heard of any family in the capital growing fruits and vegetables. It's no wonder she feels cheap.

Chen Zhier opened her mouth, wanting to say that the pomegranate flowers were beautiful and that pomegranates had good meanings, but when she thought that she was now relying on her aunt to stay here, she closed her mouth.

.........

"Madam, your niece has been brought into the mansion. She is said to be here to take care of the patient. She just came out of Chunhui Courtyard!" Qiuxia ran in from outside the yard and said to Shen Rong.

Although Qiuxia rarely stays in the yard, she loves chatting and gossiping with people, and she usually hears a lot of gossip outside the yard.

Seeing this, Shen Rong did not stop her.

Just then, Qiuxia happened to hear the news that Xiao Chen had brought her niece to the mansion, and then she went to wait outside Minghui Courtyard for a while. Sure enough, she saw Xiao Chen coming out of Minghui Courtyard with a young girl.

Qiuxia confirmed that the news was true and immediately ran back to inform Shen Rong.

Shen Rong put down the account book in her hand. Seeing Qiuxia's face flushed from running, she couldn't help but smile, "Why are you running so fast? Look, your face is flushed."

Qiuxia stamped her feet, "Madam, I'm talking to you about serious matters! You're still teasing me!"

Seeing this, Shen Rong couldn't make fun of the maid anymore and just said, "Just stay here. The old lady has agreed. Can I, your wife, kick her out?"

Qiuxia stamped her feet again, "Madam, what if the girl from the Chen family is coming for the Marquis? You can't be careless!"

Shen Rong raised her eyebrows, "No way? I just came in and didn't do anything. It's not nice for you to say that about me, right?"

"Oh! You probably don't know what kind of life the Chen family leads. My mother told me that the Chen family used to come to our house to beg for money. Later, our house was completely ruined, so they stopped coming. Now that they see that we are living a good life, maybe they come here just to live a good life!" Qiuxia talked a lot.

Anyway, she didn't like Chen Zhier. Just now, she followed behind Xiao Chen, her eyes rolling around, and it was obvious that she was a restless person.

Shen Rong never looked down on others, and she took Qiuxia's reminder to heart.

She thought for a moment and said, "Call the other people in the yard over here. I have something to tell you."

Qiuxia saw that Shen Rong had taken her words to heart, and a smile immediately appeared on her face. "Yes, I'll go call someone right away."

Soon, all the maids and old women in the yard gathered in the front yard.

Shen Rong came out of the main room. Qiuxia followed her and brought her a chair and placed it in the corridor. Shen Rong sat on the chair and glanced at the maids and old women in the yard with a dignified look.

“I believe everyone knows that there will be a banquet in the mansion soon. During this period of time, everyone has been busy preparing for the banquet, but we cannot neglect the things in our yard.

"Gatekeepers Wang and Zhang, your job is very important. You must watch the yard and don't let anyone who doesn't deserve to be here come in."

"Yes, I will remember it."

Mrs. Zhang: "Yes, I will not let that outsider enter Guiyuan."

Shen Rong nodded, pointed out Juxiang and gave her some instructions, and finally looked at everyone and said, "Don't worry, as long as you hold the banquet well, I will give you a month's salary increase."

As soon as Shen Rong said this, the servants standing in the yard showed joy on their faces.

"Madam, rest assured. We will do our job well!" the servants promised in unison.

Young Master Chengjue, the old lady has already rewarded them with one month's salary, and the lady has also rewarded them with one month's salary. If after this banquet, the lady rewards them with another month's salary, it will be three months' salary in total.

For the elderly people in the mansion, this was something they dared not even think about.

"Okay, let's all go!" Shen Rong stood up and went into the main room.

Shen Rong had just finished beating the servants in the yard when Xiao Chen's maid Lai Xi brought Chen Zhier to ask for a meeting outside Guiyuan.

Wang Pozi and Zhang Pozi had just received Shen Rong's instructions, so they naturally did not dare to let the people in. They asked the two to wait outside the door. Wang Pozi passed on the message and then let the people in.

Shen Rong listened to what Wang Po had said. Before she could say anything, Qiuxia started to grumble, "Didn't you say you were here to take care of the patient? You must have bad intentions to come here now!"

Shen Rong pretended not to hear Qiuxia's muttering and nodded to Mrs. Wang, "Let her in!"

"Yes!" replied Mrs. Wang.

After a while, Lai Xi and Chen Zhier came to the living room on the main side of the house.

"Madam, this is the madam's niece. She has come here today to make the acquaintance." Lai Xi spoke eloquently. After introducing Chen Zhier, he stepped behind Chen Zhier.

Chen Zhier had a shy smile on her face and looked at Shen Rong obscurely, "Cousin, I'm Zhier. I've been in the mansion for the past few days, thank you, cousin and cousin."

Chen Zhier heard from her aunt that her aunt's concubine's daughter-in-law was a country girl. She originally thought she was a vulgar woman, but she realized she was wrong after meeting her.

Shen Rong sat elegantly on the chair, wearing a light yellow silk shirt embroidered with a willow pattern, and a white moonlit skirt with dark flowers. The pearl hairpin on her head was delicate and expensive.

At first glance, Chen Zhier felt that Shen Rong was no different from those noble ladies in the capital.

If she didn't know Shen Rong's background, no one would think she was a country girl.

Shen Rong curled the corner of her mouth. She didn't dare to recognize this cousin.

"Miss Chen, you are joking. As long as your aunt is here, it will be my turn to take care of you."

Chen Zhier showed a worried look on her face. "My aunt is not in good health. If anything happens, I can't bear to trouble my aunt, so I can only... can only shamelessly come to my cousin...cousin's wife..."

Shen Rong's breathing stagnated and her eyes turned to Qiuxia who was standing beside her.

This girl really said it. Could it be that Qiuxia really

Qiuxia didn't notice Shen Rong looking at her at all. She stared at Chen Zhier and said, "Your Chen family is..." Are you so poor that you can't afford to eat?

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Shen Rong's cough interrupted Qiuxia's next words.

She looked at Chen Zhier and said, "I'm sure Miss Chen knows that I'm just a girl from the countryside. Now that the mansion is hosting a banquet, I'm so busy that I really don't have the time or energy to take care of other things.

What's more, I heard that you came to the mansion to take care of your aunt. If you can't even take care of yourself, how can you take care of your aunt?"

Shen Rong's words left Chen Zhier speechless, and she almost covered her face and left Guiyuan.
