Emperor Yongzheng defeated his brothers and ascended the throne, only to die exhausted after thirteen years, leaving behind ambitions unfulfilled. Unwilling to accept this fate, his soul wandered t...
Many people laughed when Madam Liu said this.
Madam Zheng was indeed looking for trouble. Madam Liu's words were quite satisfying to hear. Moreover, Madam Zheng was really muddle-headed. Now, sitting in someone's daughter-in-law's shop, she was subtly mocking the daughter-in-law in front of the mother-in-law. Everyone looked at each other and agreed that it would be best to have less contact with Madam Zheng in the future.
I've heard that Madam Zheng has many children. I should be careful when arranging marriages for her in the future. It's best to avoid contact with such families, as marriage to one of them will only lead to trouble.
Just as Madam Liu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Then a maid entered and said, "Greetings, ladies. This servant has come to pay respects to Madam Liu."
Madam Liu: "You are..."
“This servant is a servant of the Fucha family. Our Fujin is here today as well. My aunt (Wu Yiming) just went to see Fujin and heard that Madam Liu and her friend have also come. So she couldn’t invite Madam over. Fujin is also busy, so she sent this servant to apologize to Madam.”
Madam Liu didn't really care. She knew her own family's worth. Wu Yiming had also made it clear that when Consort Fucha sent someone over, it was actually to elevate her.
Madam Liu smiled and said, "I heard that Consort Fucha is here. I was just about to send someone to apologize, but I'll trouble you to make the trip first."
"I heard from the young lady that Madam treats you like her own daughter. Before you came, please ask me to thank Madam properly. I'm not available today, but I've already said that I'll go to see Madam in a couple of days!"
“Ming’er is such a lovely child, it’s only right that I dote on her, you’re too kind, Madam.”
After exchanging pleasantries, it was clear that the Fucha family had a good attitude towards the Liu family. In fact, anyone could see that Wu Yiming was somewhat reluctant to be a concubine of the Fucha family, but since the Fucha princess was willing to give Wu Yiming face, they naturally couldn't say anything.
Besides, apart from those like Madam Zheng who are not quite right in the head, everyone who came today has a good relationship with the Liu family. Madam Liu is usually easy to get along with and they are close to each other. Even if the Fucha family is not the Empress's maternal family, they are still top-tier noble families in the capital. People like them don't usually see people like that.
Now that the Liu family has become associated with such a family, they are envious, but they also understand that they can't have it by envying. As the Liu family gets better and better, they will be able to help them in the future.
Even if we can't pull them out, we can at least prevent some trouble when necessary.
