Aunt Wang, who has always been steady, took the initiative today to say that she would accompany Xin An to the front yard to see Cuiping. She was more concerned about Cuiping's arrival than Xin An.

Even though her eldest daughter seems cheerful all day long, she is actually very tired behind the scenes. She doesn't even want to say how tired she is after socializing with those noble ladies. She feels sorry for her, but apart from taking care of her food and drink, she can't help. As long as Cuiping is capable and has no bad intentions, why wouldn't it hurt for her to give up her position?

When the old lady learned that someone from the palace was coming, she said that if anyone had seen the person and thought him good, they could bring him to her for her to see and check.

"The Queen Mother has replied to my invitation and summoned me to the palace in two days. You should accompany Grandmother."

"You want to enter the palace?"

Xin An felt that this was a little sudden. The old lady said, "Come back later and I will tell you the rules of entering the palace. You will have to go sooner or later. I will take you there once, and things will go more smoothly for you in the future."

"grandmother?"

The old lady's words sounded like she was entrusting someone with a heavy responsibility. Before Xin Ando could ask more questions, she said, "Don't be nervous. You are the daughter-in-law of the Marquis's Mansion. It's not surprising for you to enter the palace. If the second boy has a promising future, you will have many opportunities to enter the palace in the future."

Tang Gang acted first and reported later, and set his sights on the women in the clan. When she learned the news, the matter was already a foregone conclusion. What was important was that she knew that the people in the clan were very willing to do so, and had mentioned such a thing two years ago.

This is a matter of two people willing to fight and one willing to be beaten. Even if you are angry, you can't do anything about it. You can only think that since it has come, you have to manage it carefully and have a happy result. Don't end up with a lot of resentment.

I couldn't help but think of the old man again. If he were still alive, I wonder how angry he would be when he found out about his children and grandchildren's plans.

Her eyes fell on Xin An, thinking that since the women of the clan had come, she would have to ask Xin An for help. Tao Yiran could not rely on her at all. Although Xin An was a good person, her status was somewhat weak. The old lady wanted to give her face and raise her status so that it would be easier for her to make friends outside.

The old lady didn't say what she thought, and Xin An didn't ask. After the ceremony, she said, "I will follow my grandmother's arrangements."

"Okay, go ahead and don't keep people waiting."

After Xin An left, the old lady sighed. This was the only woman in the mansion that she could count on. She also thought how great it would be if Tang Rong remembered the old man's words and married Xin An. Since Tao Yiran was useless, Tang Rong's road was destined to be difficult.

Ganlu wanted to say something but stopped herself, and in the end could only shake her head silently.

In the front yard, when Xin An arrived, Wang was talking to Cui Ping. When she saw Xin An, she said to Cui Ping, "This is my second daughter-in-law. Take a look."

Cuiping stood up to greet her and Xin An nodded. She thought that those who could enter the palace were all good-looking, and those who could become an aunt must be smart too. What's more, Xin An knew Cuiping's abilities in her previous life, so there was nothing to complain about.

"I've heard that Aunt Cuiping is a very respectable person. Now that I see her, I know it's true."

"Aunt, please take a seat."

Cui Ping looked at Xin An without leaving any trace, "The Second Young Master's wife is more outstanding than I thought."

Xin An did not beat around the bush and stated his purpose directly, "I think Auntie has also learned about my situation. I came from Huaijiang and I don't know much about the affairs of the capital. I hope someone who is familiar with the situation in the capital can help me. I wonder if Auntie is willing?"

She was direct and Cuiping was also not vague. Her parents were long gone and her brother died of illness the year before last. Now her nephew was the head of the family. Although her nephew had been nice to her in the past two days, after all, the two of them had never lived together for a long time. It was okay for him to stay for two days, but if he stayed for a long time, there might be problems.

Of course, with her conditions, it would be no problem for her to become an aunt in a wealthy family, but the higher the family status, the harder it is to gain a foothold and it is harder to be trusted.

After Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion found her, she made detailed inquiries. The Crown Prince's family was muddle-headed, the Second Young Master's family did not look prominent, but the Second Young Master's wife was wealthy. Unfortunately, the people around her were not familiar with the situations of the various families in the capital, and the Second Young Master's wife often went out for social events. Her role was unquestionable. Instead of sitting on the bench and engaging in intrigue in other mansions, it was better to be decent here.

After figuring this out, he stood up again and bowed slightly, "If the Second Young Master's Madam doesn't mind my little ability, I will definitely help her with all my strength."

Cuiping's staying was within Xinan's expectations.

In her previous life, she always chose the wife of the newly crowned number one scholar who knew nothing and had no money. Why couldn't she choose the wife of the second young master of the marquis's mansion, who had a higher starting point, like her in this life?

Wang had no objection, and the old lady nodded after reading it. However, she warned Cuiping, "Since the Second Young Master's wife has chosen you, and you are willing to stay, you must not have second thoughts in the future. You must help with your wholeheartedly. If you do your job well, good things will be waiting for you."

"Thank you for the reminder, old lady."

Cui Ping was extremely respectful in front of the old lady. "I am grateful that the Second Young Master's Madam is willing to take me in. I will do my best to repay her."

"Ah."

The old lady was satisfied and said, "Go down."

Aunt Wang still had to go back to bring her luggage, so Xin An asked Aunt Wang to send two people to help her. After they left, Xin An smiled and asked the old lady, "Grandma, are you okay?"

"good."

The old lady could see that Cuiping was capable, but she was a little worried that Xinan could not control such a person. It was not a good thing for the servant to be strong and the master to be weak.

"Have you thought about where to place her?"

Xin An said that Aunt Wang had already cleaned up the house in Qiushi Courtyard and left. The old lady said, "Although she is from the palace, you are the master, the second young lady of the Marquis's Mansion, so you don't need to praise her too much."

"Let her live in Luoyan Pavilion. It's not easy to live in the master's courtyard."

"You can use this person first. If she wants to dominate you, send her away. Don't worry about other things."

Xin Anfu thanked him, "I don't have to worry about anything with my grandmother here. Aunt Cuiping is a smart person and should know when to advance and when to retreat. If she wants to commit an act of disobedience, I will not tolerate her."

"Don't worry, grandma. I won't let a servant bully me."

The old lady was very satisfied with her attitude. The more she looked at Xin An, the more she felt that she had the potential to become the next mistress of the house.

It has to be said that the better Xin An performed, the more the old lady felt sorry for Tang Rong, and she couldn't help but be a little biased towards him. She always thought that if that incident had not happened, he and Xin An would be in charge of external affairs, and with Xin An's ability in socializing outside, Tang Rong's future would be much smoother.

After the people left, he couldn't help but sigh, "It's all fate."

Gan Lu advised, "Don't worry too much. The Second Young Master's wife is outstanding, and the Second Young Master is also making progress. This is a good thing."

The old lady shook her head. It was certainly a good thing that all her children and grandchildren were outstanding, but the second boy must have an irreconcilable resentment in his heart. There was only one Marquis, and when the brothers fought, she would not be willing to let either of them get hurt.

Ganlu did not try to persuade her anymore, thinking that people should not enjoy happiness too early. The old lady let go of her early and she had enjoyed a few good years. Who could have known that she would be so worried now?
