Then Huang told the story of Zhao Qingyan and Tu Haoyu.

Coincidentally, Tu Haoyu was the grandson of Marquis Anping.

I wonder what the purpose of the invitation from the Marquis of Anping's residence is.

Princess Yan Yue did know some things about the Marquis of Anping's residence.

Especially that illegitimate daughter, who is said to have not appeared in the capital for several years.

"The Lady of Anping is a formidable woman. Her illegitimate children were separated from their families and lived separately once they came of age, so the household was relatively peaceful."

This post was clearly made by Lady Hou, and it's unlikely it was to stand up for her illegitimate daughter.

Even though Pang Huifang was the only aunt in the Pang family, she was still born out of wedlock. The fact that she could maintain some dignity at home was due to the magnanimity of the Lady of the Marquis.

Once married, they are considered outside the Marquis's household, and the Marquis's wife naturally wouldn't care about them.

Marquis Anping was never a council member.

Especially in recent years, I've heard that people have been indulging in the beauty of nature.

He especially loves drinking, and whenever he drinks too much, he'll lie down anywhere, using the sky as his blanket and the ground as his bed—he's incredibly carefree.

The Tu family had long since left the capital, and as for their troublesome son, it was said that he had gone to serve as a county magistrate in a local area.

If my sister-in-law and nieces-in-law want to join in the fun, then they can.

Besides, you are all my family. I don't think anyone would be so bold as to lay a hand on you.

Yan Yue spoke casually, yet with a very domineering air, which reassured the women of the Zhao family.

After thinking it over, Madam Huang finally decided to take her two daughters-in-law to the banquet at the Marquis of Anping's residence.

Of all the banquets I've attended recently, the Anping Marquis's family is the most prestigious.

The old woman first led her daughters-in-law to step over the thresholds of these high-class gates.

Huang's decision was entirely driven by curiosity.

She always felt that unsolicited kindness was either malicious or thieving. Maybe it really was that crazy woman, Pang Huifang, causing trouble.

The older this old lady gets, the more unconventional her thoughts become.

I guess they've been too comfortable in the capital and want to find some fun.

As for Wang Caixia and Tian Xiaolan, they were simply following their mother-in-law's lead, and they went to see the scale of the banquet at the Marquis of Anping's residence.

When my husband comes to the capital in the future, he won't lose face when entertaining colleagues or hosting banquets.

When the day arrived, the three women, Huang and her mother-in-law, boarded the carriage prepared by Princess Yanyue, with their maids following behind in the carriage.

The Marquis of Anping's residence occupies a large area. Standing in front of the main gate, Tian Xiaolan glanced at the surrounding walls.

“We just came from the east wall, right? This Marquis’s mansion must have at least ten acres of land.”

As he spoke, he didn't forget to confirm with his sister-in-law.

Wang Caixia nodded, "More than that, you can keep guessing."

Tian Xiaolan's eyes widened in disbelief. If they weren't at someone's front door, she probably would have yelled "Mom!"

Mrs. Huang looked at her two daughters-in-law.

"Have you two forgotten about the Princess's Residence and Prince Rui's Residence? They're much bigger than this."

The two daughters-in-law immediately nodded in agreement, straightened their backs, looked straight ahead, and waited for the servants of the Marquis's mansion to check the invitations before entering the house.

The Marquis of Anping's residence invited quite a lot of people this time; basically, all the prominent families in the capital were among those invited.

Looking around, there were many ladies and young women queuing up to enter.

Tian Xiaolan then sidled up to Wang Caixia and whispered something to her.

"Sister-in-law, this looks like a bride selection to me."

Wang Caixia shook her head and whispered, "I don't know, these girls are dressed so beautifully."

Standing in front, Mrs. Huang listened to her two daughters-in-law whispering to each other, saying, "If you have something to say, say it at home."
