Perhaps it was just as Princess Yong'an said, her existence made the entire General's Mansion re-evaluate the value of Shen Yuerong.
Ever since Du Wan returned to the general's mansion, they always sat together when they had meals at the old lady's house.
During dinner, Du Wan stood aside, serving the masters like a servant.
"Rong'er, we are a family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. You have to tell your mother the truth now. What is your relationship with Princess Yong'an now? And why did she come here today?"
The old lady's eyes were almost fixed on Shen Yuerong, as if she wanted to stare a hole in her.
"I helped save the young marquis before, and I also met the princess. The princess and I hit it off right away, and we became friends. She came here today because she wanted to invite me to go with her at a poetry gathering in the next few days."
"Poetry gathering?"
Fu Hengyue's eyes suddenly widened, "Are you talking about the poetry meeting that will be held in Long'an Mountain in a few days?"
"I have never asked the princess for details, but she said it was definitely not in the capital. I think it should be the one Yue'er mentioned."
Fu Hengyue subconsciously picked at the bracelet on her hand and said, "That poetry gathering, all the people who went there were high-ranking officials in the capital, and they were personally invited by the organizer. Without the relevant invitation letter, you are not allowed to enter. How could you be qualified?"
The old lady became more energetic after hearing Fu Hengyue's words, and set her eyes on Shen Yuerong, "Rong'er, since this poetry meeting is so important, why don't you take Yue'er with you? After all, she is your own sister, and you should support each other."
Shen Yuerong felt a little irritated.
This family really wants to take advantage of everything!
Shen Yuerong put down her bowl and chopsticks.
"Princess Yong'an only invited me verbally. I don't have an invitation now. Even if I wanted to bring Yue'er, I'm afraid I can't do it."
Fu Hengyu snorted coldly.
"You don't even have an invitation in your hand, what's the point of saying something like that?"
Fu Hengyue's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at his brother with some disgust.
"Brother, although mother doesn't say some things, there is always a gap in her heart. I want to ask brother, when you were away, sister-in-law was in charge of the house inside and outside, and it was fine for her to show up outside. Now that brother has returned, sister-in-law is still entangled with others outside. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"
"If this gets out, people will say that our General's Mansion has no rules."
On the surface, she was speaking for Shen Yuerong, but in fact, she wanted Shen Yuerong to give up this opportunity.
Fu Hengyue was a little angry. She had prepared a lot for the invitation to the poetry meeting, but because there was no one behind her, she didn't even know what the invitation looked like.
But Shen Yuerong clearly did nothing, yet at this moment, she was able to become Princess Yong'an's guest of honor and attend the poetry reading without even an invitation.
She just wanted to trap Shen Yuerong at home so that she could go out and show off.
"this…"
Fu Hengyu looked at Shen Yuerong hesitantly.
"Although what Yue'er said is a little biased, it also makes some sense. When I was away before, I really had to trouble Madam to deal with it for me, but now that I'm back, Madam doesn't have to change..."
Killing the goose that lays the golden eggs and then destroying the bridge after crossing it, Shen Yuerong had already experienced the strength of this family.
Shen Yuerong looked at Fu Hengyu calmly.
"A few days ago, Princess Yong'an's young master got into trouble. Didn't my husband say that I had to solve this matter? Why is it that now I am not suitable to show up in public?"
"In that case, my husband, why don't you tell me clearly at once when you need me to show up in public and when you need me to stay at home, so that I won't make you unhappy!"
"I will not be in charge of the shop outside or the affairs in the mansion. I will leave them all to you. I will live out the rest of my life in my courtyard. Are you satisfied with this?"
Shen Yuerong's nails dug into her flesh, and the pain made her more sober, so she didn't say anything more extreme.
Fu Hengyu didn't expect him to be so sharp-tongued and was speechless for a moment.
At that time, Du Wan on the side spoke up.
"Sister, my husband is worried that you will be too tired, so..."
"Mother."
Shen Yuerong put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked at the old lady. "The people in the general's mansion are really becoming more and more unruly. Since when has it been the turn of a concubine who has not yet married to the family to give instructions when the mistress is speaking?"
"If someone hears this, they will say that you, an old lady, are not strict enough in your management."
The old lady gave Du Wan a vicious look and then lowered her eyes.
"Don't get down yet! You're an eyesore here!"
As the old lady spoke, she stretched out her hand and asked someone to take Du Wan away.
Then, a smile appeared on her face.
"Rong'er, what Yu'er said just now makes sense, you see..."
Shen Yuerong chuckled.
"Mother, what Yue'er said does make some sense. Now that I am a housewife, I really shouldn't go out all the time. I am also tired of these three years. As I said just now, I will leave everything to you and I will not ask about it anymore."
"You mean... you don't want to manage the family business anymore?"
The old lady was a little hesitant. After all, no matter what she said before, Shen Yuerong was unwilling to let go.
Shen Yuerong nodded, "Didn't I tell my mother and sister before that if they can solve the problem, I will naturally be willing to give it to them. But I always thought that my sister was still young and couldn't bear the responsibility, so it always fell on me. But some things that happened recently have changed my mind, so I want my sister to learn more from me."
"That's the best thing."
The old lady took Fu Hengyue's hand, then took Shen Yuerong's hand, and put their hands together.
"We are all one family. There is no need to distinguish between you and me. We should love each other like this."
Such good news made the old lady smile so hard that the corners of her mouth almost reached her ears.
Shen Yuerong watched coldly.
Recently, she has sorted out the dowry and her own property. As for the other things, let them make a fuss, the bigger the better.
The bigger the fuss, the more evidence Shen Yuerong will have.
Fu Hengyue didn't care about these things. She was only worried about the poetry meeting. "Sister-in-law, your legs have not been good for a long time. I'm afraid it will be hard to go to Long'an Mountain. Why don't I go on this trip in your place? I can also... get to know Princess Yong'an."
Shen Yuerong had to bear all the hardships.
The blessings are enjoyed by the Fu family.
Their calculations were really good.
Shen Yuerong raised her eyebrows.
"You mean... I want Princess Yong'an to sit in the guest seat and give it to you?"
Fu Hengyue nodded without hesitation, then came to Shen Yuerong and grabbed her sleeve and acted coquettishly.
"Sister-in-law, that's where all the talented men and beautiful women in the capital gather. I've never seen the world since I was a child, so I thought... if I could take this opportunity to get to know those young ladies in the capital, maybe it would be helpful to the general's mansion in the future."
"Sister-in-law, you have always satisfied me with everything I have asked for since I was a child. This time should be no exception, right? I promise that I will never embarrass you, sister-in-law. Please agree, sister-in-law. Please, sister-in-law."
