Chapter 218 Xin An is getting better at playing dumb

With Li in charge of the family, the news of Tao's family was cut off from leaking out, and the news of Tao Yiran's pregnancy did not spread.

"She's pregnant. She's been taking care of the baby these days. She should go pick her up tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Xin An put down the ginseng teacup, yawned, and leaned lazily against the back of the chair.

"Pregnant?"

After being surprised, Lin Yao understood why the Marquis' Mansion had not taken any action. You know, many people were waiting to see the Marquis' Mansion and the Tao family become enemies. It turned out that Tao Yiran had a talisman.

"She's lucky, but the Tao family seems to be different all of a sudden."

Xin An said that the Tao family had changed to Li as the head of the family. "It's normal for something shady to happen in a large house, but if it gets out, it's a problem. I heard that Madam Tao was so angry that she fell ill, so the head of the family was changed."

"What about Tang Rong and Tao Yiran?"

"Can you say that?"

Xin An smiled meaningfully, "It's just that the young couple couldn't help themselves. There's no need to make a big deal out of it. Just punish those servants who were gossiping and the matter is over."

"Besides, only my family knew about the Autumn Banquet after the rumor spread. My father-in-law fainted on the spot, and my eldest brother was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall. It was raining and stormy all night. When we found him in the morning, he was almost feverish and had been sick for several days."

Mrs. Liao said with a sigh, "Your father-in-law must be heartbroken, right?"

Everyone in the Beiya Army knew that Marquis Weiyuan was a biased man. He treated his eldest son like a treasure and his second son like a grass. Liao Zhi was very sad when he talked about this.

Of course, it was just a sigh. He still disliked Tang Mo for being too indecisive. You know, he was the one who personally sent his grandfather and father off.

Although this move was to find a way out for all the Liao family members, there are only a few such ruthless people in the world.

Xin An smiled without saying anything, as if everything was self-evident. The more Lin Yao thought about it, the more she felt that Tang Mo must have teamed up with Xin An to do something. However, she did not have any grudges. Instead, she felt that this was normal and reasonable.

"Did you know that Huang Wei is seeking a divorce?"

Xin An and Madam Liao shook their heads together. Xin An was a little surprised. She originally thought that Huang Wei would conspire with the young lady of the Tao family about something, but in the end, was he just going to leave directly?

Lin Yao said: "Huang Wei said that she and Zhu You were doomed to be together, and she didn't want to delay Zhu You's search for happiness, so it's better for them to be happy."

"The Huang family has gone to the Duke of Xiangguo's mansion. The Duke of Xiangguo guaranteed that Zhu You would not do anything foolish, but Huang Wei seemed to be determined. The Huang family has taken Huang Wei back. I think they were furious and deliberately let the news of the two families spread."

"The divorce should be a done deal."

Xin An admired Huang Wei's decisiveness. "So Miss Huang is still a free and easy woman."

Mrs. Liao said that the Huang family was strong enough, and if her mother's family was not strong enough, they would have to swallow their anger.

Lin Yao sighed, when aristocratic families marry, no one would care about the relationship between the husband and wife, all they care about is the benefit of both families. Many couples have become resentful of each other because of this, and in the end they can only live together.

The Huang family dared to confront the Xiangguo Mansion, so they naturally had the strength. "The key is the love of the family, otherwise it would be a surprise."

This is the difficulty of being a woman, unable to fit in with her husband's family and unable to go back to her parents' home.

Xin An wondered if Zhu You would pursue Tao Yiran even more vigorously if he regained his freedom.

Tang Rong should have a wonderful life in the days ahead.

"The Crown Princess has been punished. I'm afraid Tao Yiran won't go out for a year or so. You have to be more careful."

Lin Yao kindly reminded him, and Xin An raised his eyebrows, "Could it be possible that the Crown Princess could implicate me?"

"Why not?"

Lin Yao said that the second day after the old lady of Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion entered the palace, the imperial edict to reprimand the Crown Princess was issued. The reason was not difficult to guess. "She prides herself on her noble status and will not tolerate others not obeying her. Now that she has lost face, she will definitely hate Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion. What's more, you are close to the Second Prince's wife."

"It's unjust."

Xin An was helpless. "What kind of identity do I have to be so close to the Second Prince's wife? I was just called in to ask a few questions. It's not hard to guess what they asked. What does the trouble caused by my good sister-in-law have to do with me?"

This cry of injustice was heartfelt and quite innocent. Xin An's acting skills were so good that Lin Yao, who was originally a little skeptical, gave up the idea and then told her the reason why she asked the question.

"There are rumors out there that the Marquisate failed to hook up with the Crown Prince, and instead wanted to curry favor with the Second Prince."

Xin An said this was a joke. "My husband and I have accomplished nothing and have no real power. You all know my father-in-law's attitude towards us. How could he let me go to such an important event?"

"Don't say we don't have the ability, people don't trust us either."

Lin Yao was also testing Xin An by saying this, but she was more excited and speechless than she thought, as if she had been poked in a sore spot. "Who do you think I am? Apart from you guys, how can I see the nobles in the capital whenever I want, or refuse to see them when I don't want to?"

Mrs. Liao could empathize with Xin An in this regard. "You are telling the truth. Such a big thing, let alone you and me, even the most important people in the mansion would not be allowed to know about it. What would happen if you let it slip?"

"Isn't it?"

Xin An said that the person who spread this rumor didn't think about it, and then he laughed to himself and said to the two people: "I heard that those smartest women can make clouds and rain with a flip of their hands, and plan and plan without omissions. It would be great if I really had that ability."

Mrs. Liao smiled and said, "Why is your personality so interesting? You were excited one moment, and beautiful the next."

Lin Yao also agreed, "Seeing her so excited, I regretted asking this question. I was still thinking about how to comfort her, but she laughed first."

Xin An joked, "Then Sister Lin, please comfort me quickly and tell me that I am awesome and that I am very capable."

The look of "I'm waiting to be praised" successfully made everyone present laugh, causing a burst of laughter.

Then Xin An deliberately lowered his voice again, "Did the Marquis really go to pick up the prince?"

"You don't know anything at all?"

Xin An sighed, "How would I know? I only know that my eldest brother often goes to my father-in-law's study. Tang Mo has only been there twice recently and was scolded every time he went in. Not to mention me."

"You two really are..."

Lin Yao felt that he was indeed a bit pitiful. Xin An was fine, as she was both a female relative and a daughter-in-law, but Tang Mo was his biological son, and he didn't even have the right to enter the study?

Too biased.

"It's a good thing I don't know, so I don't have to worry about it."

Xin An sighed, "I am just an ordinary person, all I want is to live a stable life. If someone else makes a mistake and gets me implicated, how unfair would that be to me?"

Lin Yao said seriously, "Then you have no choice but to admit it."

"If you enjoy the family's protection, you must naturally bear the family's guilt."

Xin An leaned back, "Don't scare me, I've only been enjoying it for a few days?"

Lin Yao chuckled, "I was just teasing you. Marquis Weiyuan is famous for being cautious. He won't go that far."

It sounds nice to say that he is cautious, but in fact he is just timid. Otherwise, with the old marquis's military achievements, he would not be like this today, leading an idle job.

Xin An pretended to be scared, then breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm timid, and I can't stand being scared."

Lin Yao laughed even more happily and told Xin An two interesting things about Beijing. Only then did Xin An smile again. Even she admired herself for getting better and better at pretending to be stupid.
