Tang Rong wiped his face and saw some oil on his fingertips. He walked to the mirror and suddenly wanted to die. The face he was so proud of was somewhat greasy. Fortunately, he could lose weight by eating less, so he was not too worried.

The only person who made him so angry was Tao Yiran. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes burning with anger. Not to mention that Tao Yiran was his wife, even the dog beside him could not be treated like this.

"Crown Prince, Crown Princess..."

Whispering softly, his eyes slowly filled with poison...

In Qiushi Courtyard, Xin An waited until Tang Mo fell asleep before he breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Tang Mo did not get drunk and crazy tonight.

I thought I would fall asleep quickly after a tiring day, but I stayed awake until midnight. I sorted out today's events carefully before falling asleep. When I opened my eyes again, it was daybreak and Tang Mo had already gone out to work.

Chunyang and Chunlu came in to serve. Thinking that he might have to go to the front yard to confront the Tao family today, Xin An's eyes became more excited.

"I'm not going out today, so I'll keep my hair simple."

Nanfeng came in, after giving Fu Li, and asked if he wanted to change to some autumn cosmetics, so that the owners of all the cosmetics shops in the city could send all the cosmetics in for selection.

"When I have some free time, I'll go and see it myself. No need to send me off."

She also thought that her mother should be preparing for her brother's wedding at this time, "I'll ask the cloth shop owner to pick out some good fabrics."

She had to support her brother and save his face.

"Young Madam, Aunt Ganlu from the old lady's side is here."

The old lady asked Ganlu to bring another gift to Xin An. Ever since she learned that Tang Gang and Tang Mo, father and son, were drinking in the mansion, and that the relationship between the father and son would be cleared up, the old lady was extremely satisfied. After Ganlu inquired about the whole process, she felt that she valued Xin An.

Yesterday afternoon, people from the Empress Dowager's palace sent her a few pieces of fabric, and today they sent a piece to Xin An.

"It was sent by the Empress Dowager's attendants yesterday. The old lady said that this piece of material has bright colors and is perfect for the Second Young Master's wife. So, she asked me to send it here early."

The color of the material is like the red maple in autumn. Both the color and the texture are extremely high-quality. Xin An likes it very much. He picked it up and tried it on himself, "This material is really good. Come and take a look at how beautiful it is."

"It looks good, just right for the occasion."

"It looks brighter when worn by the Second Young Master's wife."

"The old lady has a good eye. This material looks bright and noble."

Several maids flattered her, Xin An and Gan Lu were happy too. They put down the material and asked them to make new clothes as soon as possible. "You will go to the Autumn Banquet in a few days, and you will wear this."

The material that can be sent to the Empress Dowager is one in a thousand. If one had obtained such good material in the previous life, it would definitely be kept in the bottom of the box, and it is very likely that it would end up falling into the hands of Tao Yiran.

But in this life, she believed in enjoying blessings in time, so as not to let others get them for free. So of course she would get such good material as soon as possible.

"Aunt Ganlu, grandma hasn't had breakfast yet, right?"

Gan Lu smiled and said, "The old lady knew that the second young master's wife was going to go, so she specifically ordered us to wait until the second young master's wife arrived before setting the table for dinner."

"I just know that my grandmother loves me."

Xin An smiled as she went out with Gan Lu, thinking that the old lady knew everything about the mansion, but older people all wanted harmony in their family. The old lady was not unaware of the grievances her mother-in-law and Tang Mo had suffered in the past, but since the parties involved did not make a fuss, she pretended not to know and maintained superficial peace.

Now that people have made a fuss, she is trying to make amends, and what she still wants is a harmonious family.

You can't say that the old lady is bad. After all, even if you are in her position, you can't guarantee that you can do better than her.

The old lady at the dinner table was still kind, and Xin An made her happy as usual, and the two of them were very harmonious.

After having breakfast in Chunrong Hall, Wang came. After sending Xin An away with just a few words, she told the old lady what happened last night.

"My Lord, what you mean is that since she went back on her own, we shouldn't take her back. This should teach her a lesson."

"She also refuses to give in to the Tao family. The eldest daughter-in-law is really confused."

The old lady was furious, but not because of Tao Yiran.

"It's only been a few years since your father passed away, and she, a Crown Princess, can humiliate the people of my mansion like this?"

The Crown Princess dares to do this. What will happen if she is really allowed to sit in a high position?

The old lady has always regarded protecting the Marquis' Mansion as her responsibility, because the old man told her to live well before he died. As long as she is alive, the old man's glory will always be there, and no one else will be allowed to bully her.

Wang tried to comfort her again and again, but the old lady remained unmoved. She told Ganlu to deliver a letter to the palace, saying that she wanted to pay her respects to the empress dowager.

"If we remain indifferent to such humiliation, we will be laughed at. From now on, the status of the Marquisate in the capital will plummet."

"If someone from the Tao family comes, tell them that it was my idea. Our mansion cannot afford the daughter of the Tao family. Since you left on your own, then don't come back. If you really want to come back, then demote your wife to a concubine. The prince of our mansion should marry a better woman."

The old lady was furious. She and the old man had been married for many years. Even though he had a illegitimate son behind her back, which made her unhappy, it still could not erase the fact that he was a great hero. He earned this huge family fortune and glory for the Tang family, but died in agony. If she, his old wife, could not maintain the glory of the Marquisate for him, how could she see him a hundred years later?

"The old master was born in a humble family, but he was made a marquis through his military achievements and established himself in the capital. If our descendants can't even keep this glory, how can they say they are descendants of the Tang family?"

"I will immediately write a letter back to my clan, asking the clan elders to bring the outstanding men in the clan to the capital. This proposal was made when your father was alive, but it was not realized for various reasons. Now the grandchildren of the Marquisate are only two brothers, which is too weak."

Wang stood up and bowed, "Everything is up to mother."

"The Marquis will be back after the court session. My daughter-in-law will ask him to come see mother immediately after his return."

I thought to myself that I was afraid Tang Gang wouldn't agree.

There are outstanding sons in the family, but how could Tang Gang be willing to let other people's sons steal his son's limelight? He has always been selfish and not broad-minded, otherwise he would not have tried so hard to refuse when Tang Yong came to him for help, because Tang Yaoming is his nephew.

The old lady said "hmm", indicating that it was useless this time and she just had to be obedient.

About half an hour later, Tang Gang came back and appeared in Chunrong Hall immediately. The old lady spoke to him harshly, which was unusual for her. Although it was not Tang Gang who had lost the person, he was the head of the family and anyone in the family could find him if they made a mistake.

When Tang Gang said that he would never let this go, the old lady's expression became better. Before she even mentioned about bringing the young men from the clan, Tang Gang changed the subject, "But if we make too much trouble, I'm afraid the prince will be killed."

"Noisy?"

The old lady got angry again and slapped the coffee table. "You are making trouble without reason. Do you think you haven't lost enough face?"

"Where's your spine?"

Tang Gang stood up and knelt in front of the old lady, "Please calm down, mother."

Angry at the humiliation in the Marquis' Mansion and afraid of offending the Crown Prince, Tang Gang was undecided.

But the old lady has always been good-tempered. She didn't take care of the household in her early years and lived a wealthy and leisurely old lady. Now she suddenly got angry, and he was a little scared.
