Reborn and married to uncle, husband and wife teamed up to abuse scum.

Zhang had hit a wall with the dowry, so she didn't complain about Xin An for the time being. But after she sat down at the table, she suddenly discovered that one person was missing.

Tang Mo had been drinking outside and hadn't come back yet. No one had sent him any news, so Zhang asked, "Why hasn't the second young master come back?"

Xin An answered before Wang could, "It's the end of the year, and he's very busy with work."

Zhang put down the chopsticks she had picked up. "I forgot to ask, where is the Second Young Master on duty? Why is he so busy?"

Don't be afraid it's just a job to get by.

"It's not a very important job in the Beiya Army, and it's not worth my aunt's concern."

"What did you say?"

Zhang smiled wryly, "Speaking of which, the Second Young Master is also my nephew, and he has to call me aunt. As his aunt, can't I care a little bit?"

He also said to Wang: "I have met the Second Young Master several times before. He seems to be a very smart person. I think there is nothing wrong with liking to eat and drink. As long as he doesn't commit crimes, it's good enough."

Xin An felt his head buzzing. "I am grateful for my aunt's concern for my husband and me. My husband is not very capable and can only do some hard work. I am also afraid that my aunt's smile will not be as bright as my brother's promising future."

Xin An picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish with bones for Zhang. "If I said something inappropriate, I'm here to apologize to my aunt. Aunt, please forgive me for this time."

Tang Gang's eyes twitched, and he felt that Xin An looked exactly like Tang Mo recently. The couple seemed to be possessed by evil spirits. You said one word to him, and he said ten words to you.

But seeing her squeezing out Zhang, he still felt secretly happy.

Zhang forced a smile, "You kid, you took your aunt's joke seriously. It doesn't matter what the job is, as long as it's a serious job, it's better than being idle."

The smile on Wang's face began to change visibly, but Xin An was not annoyed. "Aunt is right. There is a big gap between me and my elder brother. No matter what the job is, as long as it is a job for the court, I dare not slack off. I can't say that I should be on par with my elder brother, but I can't lose face."

Xin An said this and looked up at Tang Rong, "Right, brother."

That look made Tang Rong feel very uncomfortable, but fortunately his expression did not change, and there was still a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "My second brother has just been promoted to the deputy commander of the Northern Army. It is normal for him to be busy. If he hasn't come back yet, I guess he won't come back for dinner tonight. Let's start eating."

He was a little afraid of Xin An, fearing that Xin An would say something embarrassing if she was unhappy.

Zhang was a little surprised when she heard the word "commander-in-chief", but then she was relieved. She thought it must be an assignment that the marquis got for her. That's how it is in a marquis's mansion. As long as you are not a fool, you can have a good future.

But no matter how good you are, it’s useless. Can you become a marquis?

The old lady also invited Zhang to eat. Adhering to the rule of not talking while eating and not talking while sleeping, Xin An did not say a word during the whole process. Meal time is a happy thing, but how much torture is it to eat with someone you don't like?

Xin An didn't leave after dinner. She was interested and wanted to see what else Zhang would say. If something made her unhappy, she could retort on the spot to vent her anger from her previous life.

The old lady noticed that something was wrong with Xin An, and used the excuse that she was tired to ask Xin An to accompany her back. Xin An then stood up regretfully and helped the old lady back.

On the way, the old lady spoke earnestly, "Grandma knows you are unhappy, but you can't show it on your face. The second young lady of our Marquis's Mansion is a respectable person. Don't argue with those ignorant people."

"I'm just angry. It's only the first day and she's already nitpicking and showing off. Even though she didn't show off to me, I feel sorry for my mother-in-law. I have to smile everywhere and I don't owe them anything."

The old lady smiled and said, "I know you are filial, but if you offend someone, won't it be even more difficult for your mother-in-law?"

Xin An stopped talking, "Okay, I'll hold it in."

The old lady was relieved and reminded her to go to the palace tomorrow.

After being delayed for a while, I happened to meet Tang Rong on the way back to Qiushiyuan. Qing Mo was following him. Isn't this the opportunity?

Xin An didn't hide her dislike for Zhang at all, especially because she felt that she was too cowardly in her previous life. She hated Tang Rong and was even angrier. She was just about to find a reason to criticize Tang Rong, but Tang Rong spoke first, "Sister-in-law, what did you mean by that look at the dinner table last night?"

He really didn't like that look.

"You don't understand?"

Xin An rolled her eyes at him and said, "I really don't like your aunt. She's so noisy and doesn't have the poise and elegance of a wife of an official. She doesn't even have the sense of being a guest. Does she think the Marquis' Mansion is the domain of the Wei family?"

Tang Rong, who was used to speaking in a roundabout way, was a little uncomfortable with such directness. "Did your aunt offend you?"

"I didn't like her at first sight, is that okay?"

Xin An pursed his lips, not caring about his thoughts, and not being tactful in his words, he just said whatever made him feel comfortable, "They are so picky today, why do they put themselves in such an important position? No one invited them here, but they really think they are rare guests."

"They say that the eldest brother has the best rules. Don't you think your aunt is a little bit unpresentable?"

"She has shown off her power in the Marquis' Mansion. Fortunately, you are still the prince of the Marquis' Mansion. If you were a Marquis, the Marquis' Mansion would not be able to contain her pride. Wouldn't she go out to show off with drums and gongs?"

"I don't know what you mean. People who don't know would think you are the prince."

After saying that, she snorted, turned around and left, leaving Tang Rong with only his back. Qing Mo, who was standing next to Tang Rong, quietly moved back. The Second Young Master's wife was too bold to say that. It really... hit the nail on the head. Isn't it just nonsense?

Today, he also punished the servants of Chunhua Courtyard, saying that they did not serve the prince well and were meddling in other people's business.

Tang Rong looked unhappy, and Qing Mo said, "My Lord, Madam Wei was dissatisfied with not being able to stay in Ningcui Courtyard today, so she made some nitpicking remarks."

Tang Rong did not say anything. Although he knew that his aunt was picky and unpopular, he was still unhappy because he felt that he was looked down upon because he had not made proper arrangements for the people from his uncle's family.

He also thought about what his aunt said today. When Zhang knew about the marriage exchange, she blamed him, saying that he was confused and should not let go of Xin An's dowry. Only then did he realize that part of the Xin family's dowry was for his future use. Xin Kuan mentioned this when the two families were discussing the betrothal gift.

At that time, everyone was blaming him, but he was so busy dealing with the troubles caused by the marriage exchange that he forgot about this matter.

In other words, Tang Mo was using the money and items that originally belonged to him today.

Unfortunately, it’s too late to bring it up now.

A gust of cold wind blew, and Qing Mo shivered. He thought that it was becoming increasingly difficult to serve the prince. The prince's temper became more and more unpredictable. He often remained silent, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
