"Haha, that's all I'm saying."
Xu Maocai knew that what he had just said seemed to have implicated himself, and he could only explain awkwardly.
Xu Wanqing fell sadly into Zhao Yaru's arms and cried bitterly.
"Don't cry. If word gets out, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely become suspicious."
Hearing this, Xu Wanqing immediately stopped crying and looked at Huang Yueping and He with hatred.
"You kid, why do you look at your aunt like that?"
He was the first to disagree.
Hearing this, Xu Wanqing's eyes flashed with embarrassment, and she said slowly: "It turns out to be my aunt. I haven't seen you for many years, so I don't remember you."
He curled her lips and didn't want to talk anymore.
Xu Maolin and Xu Maoshan on the side quickly took out the gift box and handed it to Xu Wanqing with a smile.
"Wanqing, you were too hasty at the time, and your uncle and second uncle couldn't get here in time. You won't be angry, right?"
When Xu Wanqing mentioned the wedding day again, her face changed.
He took the gift box but didn't say a word.
Xu Maolin and Xu Maoshan looked at each other and stopped talking.
"Alright, today is Wanqing's return home. Everyone, hurry up and get busy, and give her a good reception. Although the Crown Prince hasn't arrived, the fact that he allowed Wanqing to return is a sign of his approval."
Old Master Xu spoke and everyone quickly dispersed.
Xu Wanqing followed Zhao Yaru back to Mingzhu Garden.
As soon as she sat down, Zhao Yaru began to cry, "Wanqing, my good daughter, you finally came back to see me. You don't know that I have been living a life worse than death these days."
Xu Wanqing's eyes flashed with impatience, but she asked sweetly, "Mom, did Huang Yueping bully you?"
Zhao Yaru covered her face and nodded, "It's not just that bitch who bullies me. Everyone in this mansion bullies me. Your grandfather, that old bastard, treats me with contempt every day. And your father, his soul has been seduced away by Huang Yueping and her son."
The more Zhao Yaru thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and she couldn't stop crying.
"Mom, I'm back. I will help you get revenge."
Hearing this, Zhao Yaru stopped crying instantly and looked at Xu Wanqing excitedly.
"Wanqing, are you telling the truth?"
Xu Wanqing nodded complacently, her eyes full of arrogance.
"Of course, I am the prince's concubine and will be the princess in the future. However, I am a member of the royal family, and the Xu family is just a minister. Do they dare not listen to me?"
Zhao Yaru burst into laughter instantly, took Xu Wanqing's hand, and said happily: "Wanqing, that's great, mother has been waiting for today, you have to help mother take back the power of the head of the family, and I will be in charge of the household."
Xu Wanqing's eyes flashed, "Of course, how can the prince's mother-in-law be a concubine?"
"That's great, that's great, Wanqing. I knew I could only rely on you, my dear daughter."
Xu Wanqing smiled triumphantly, looked at Zhao Yaru, and said sinisterly: "Mother, that Xixue seems to be pregnant."
Hearing this, Zhao Yaru couldn't help but spit and cursed, "That bitch is so lowly. She climbed into Lu Mingxuan's bed on the first day she went there. Wanqing, this Lu Mingxuan is really not a good person."
Xu Wanqing was furious, but she restrained herself strongly.
"Mother, find someone to kill Xixue, or sell her to a brothel. She's been competing with me for men, so it's time for her to die."
"Don't worry, Wanqing, this matter will wait for you to come back and make a decision. As long as mother gets the money, she will definitely help you with it."
Xu Wanqing's eyes darkened.
"Don't worry, I will go find my father."
"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Yaru couldn't help but put her hand into her clothes and grabbed it.
Xu Wanqing looked at her with disdain and asked dissatisfiedly: "Mother, what are you doing? Do you know that this is rude?"
Zhao Yaru's face was full of bitterness, and she said helplessly: "Wanqing, do you think mother doesn't understand? Mother has no choice. I don't know why these past two days, my body has been a little itchy, and I can't help but want to scratch it."
Xu Wanqing curled her lips and sat aside.
Zhao Yaru felt sad when she saw this, but her body was too itchy to care about it.
"Mom, if it's serious, you have to see a doctor, otherwise it might be a serious illness."
"Mom knows, Mom knows, just wait until I'm done with this busy period."
Suddenly, Xu Wanqing thought of something and looked at her and asked, "Mother, how much betrothal gift did Prince Chen give?"
When Zhao Yaru mentioned this, she stopped what she was doing and said angrily, "It's still quite a lot. Feiyun Garden can't hold it all."
Xu Wanqing's face darkened completely. "Why? Why does she have so many betrothal gifts?"
"Wanqing, didn't you say that Prince Chen was a cruel man? If Xu Wanyan marries him, what good will her life be like? She might even be tortured to death. What does it matter if the betrothal gift is large?"
“But I didn’t have that much.”
Zhao Yaru suddenly smiled, waved to Xu Wanqing, and whispered a few words in her ear.
After a while, Xu Wanqing smiled, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. Mother has made all the plans for you. You're in the palace, and you don't have any money, so it's hard to manage the servants. Mother prepared these for you so that you can use them more easily when the time comes."
"Thank you, mother. I knew you were the best to me."
Now, Xu Wanqing no longer disliked Zhao Yaru and snuggled affectionately in her arms.
"Wanqing, don't forget about your mother."
"Don't worry, I'll go now."
"Okay, Mom will accompany you."
Zhao Yaru and Xu Wanqing walked towards Huajinyuan with joy on their faces, looking at others with eyes full of arrogance.
"By the way, why is Xu Wanyu gone?"
It was only when she was halfway there that Zhao Yaru thought of this person.
"Xu Wanyu? Uncle's wild child?"
Xu Wanqing stopped.
Zhao Yaru nodded in surprise. "Yes, it's her. How do you know her?"
Xu Wanqing raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "Of course I know. I heard my grandfather mention this name a long time ago."
"Your grandfather is truly a wretch."
Zhao Yaru said bitterly.
Xu Wanqing didn't care about this. She asked doubtfully, "Where's Xu Wanyu?"
Zhao Yaru shook her head. "It was there yesterday, but I didn't see it today."
Then, she suddenly realized something and said, "Maybe your uncle is here, and she's afraid that your aunt will quarrel with your uncle, so she hid herself."
"Forget about her, go find father."
When the two arrived at Huajin Garden, Xu Maocai was indeed sitting there sipping tea proudly.
When he saw Xu Wanqing, his eyes suddenly smiled like the moon.
"Wanqing, you're here."
"Dad, I came to tell you something."
"Tell me, tell Dad, what do you want to say?"
"Dad, I am the prince's man now, so my mother's identity is not..."
Xu Maocai's expression changed instantly and he didn't speak for a long time.
"Dad, is the prince's mother-in-law his aunt?"
Xu Maocai was shocked and looked at Xu Wanqing in disbelief. "Wanqing, what did you say?"
