Yuka remained silent.

She was the second wife's maidservant who came with her as a dowry. Later, when the second master passed away, the second wife let everyone go, but she didn't want to go out, so she registered her name in the temple and stayed there.

She knew every detail of the grievances between the Second Lady and her uncle's wife.

Speaking of which, my aunt's wife is good in every way, except for one thing that makes people feel a little unbearable - she likes to shout that she wants to go back to her parents' home when something happens. It is for this reason that Mrs. Xiang doesn't like this daughter-in-law very much. Once, Mrs. Xiang was so angry that she fainted. The relationship between the second wife and this sister-in-law became more and more tense. In the early years, the second wife had the second master by her side and was in charge of the household affairs of the marquis's mansion. She could still suppress her temper and sit with Mrs. Xiang. Later, when the second master died, the second wife's lonely temper gradually emerged. Seeing that the fourth wife was impatient, let alone this sister-in-law whom she didn't like in the first place!

She thought about it and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"Then, are you really planning to let the second young lady marry you?" Thinking of the second young lady who had been sandwiched between the dignified and quiet eldest young lady and the lively and lovely third young lady since childhood and seemed inconspicuous, Jiexiang couldn't help but ask.

"It turns out you haven't thought about it seriously." The Second Lady said, "I thought Eleventh Lady would definitely not agree if she knew about it. Given the Marquis's temper, he would most likely give up on this matter. I didn't expect Eleventh Lady to actually agree." As she spoke, she smiled.

The fragrance is not understood.

The Second Lady had extraordinary patience with this loyal but somewhat clumsy maid, and was used to chatting with her on lonely days.

"Think about it. This daughter-in-law has to set rules in front of her mother-in-law. If she is forced to marry her regardless of the Fourth Madam's wishes, and she asks her daughter-in-law to massage her legs today and massage her shoulders tomorrow, will she dare to say 'no'? But if she continues to do this, can there be peace in the family? The reason why the Marquis wants to marry my niece for Brother Yu is that our two families are originally relatives, and there is a relationship between relatives. It is reasonable for the second daughter to marry the eldest son of the concubine. Secondly, he wants to find a way out for Brother Yu, so that he will not be instigated by someone with ulterior motives to keep thinking about these things at home. If the daughter-in-law is not married and the Fourth Madam makes trouble first, wouldn't it be counterproductive? The Marquis can only let it go."

Jie Xiang nodded: "That's what Madam said!"

"But since the Marquis and the Fourth Madam came to thank us today, I think it's not bad for Rouna to marry into the family!" The Second Madam said with a smile, "Not to mention that this marriage will bring benefits to the Xu family, it will also bring benefits to Rouna.

"Brother Yu is a concubine's son, so he must feel guilty in front of Roune. If brother can help brother Yu in his career, with Roune's submissive nature, even if the couple cannot live in harmony, they can still respect each other. Moreover, with me as her aunt, the madam and the marquis will be more tolerant of her for my sake. Even if Eleventh Lady wants to act like a mother-in-law in front of her, she will be more or less afraid. Not to mention Aunt Qin, she will never dare to be disrespectful to Roune."

Jiexiang thought it made sense. She knew that in this case, given the Second Lady's personality, the Second Miss would definitely marry the Second Young Master.

She thought this was not bad, and said happily, "The Second Young Master and the Second Young Miss are doing well, and our place is also lively!"

"Marriage is the most unpredictable thing." The second wife smiled faintly after hearing this, "Man proposes, God disposes. It all depends on luck!"

Seeing that she was not happy, Jiexiang suddenly thought of the Second Master - since the Second Master passed away, even when the Second Lady laughed heartily, she no longer had the dazzling brilliance she used to have.

Her expression darkened.

It would be so great if the Second Master were still alive!

The thought flashed through my mind.

She quickly collected her thoughts, not daring to think too much, nor willing to think too much.

"Then when you go back tomorrow, you must have a good talk with Madam Uncle." Jie Xiang advised the Second Lady, "Since you are so heartbroken for the Second Miss, you must let her go out happily. Otherwise, the Second Miss will have her mother on one side, her aunt on the other, and the Fourth Lady in between. How difficult her life will be!"

The Second Madam remained silent, but stood up and said, "Let's go to the Madam! This way, she won't have to wait too long!"

Jiexiang knew her temper, so she said no more and stood up to accompany her to the lady's place.

The old lady pulled the second lady's hand and said to her on the kang: "What are they doing at your place?"

The second wife was a little surprised.

She didn't expect that the lady was asking this. But she realized immediately that the lady didn't know that Xu Lingyi was going to marry her second niece for Xu Siyu.

Speaking of which, when she went to Xishan, both the Madam Tai and Xu Lingyi kept a certain distance from Shiyi Niang and watched cautiously. But every time she came back, the situation changed - not only did the Madam Tai protect Shiyi Niang, but Xu Lingyi also began to treat her as his wife. She felt that this little girl was not simple at the time. Thinking of the two of them congratulating her together today...

The Second Madam couldn't help but laugh and said, "They came to thank me!"

"Thank you?" The lady was startled. "Thank you for what?"

The second wife then told him that Xu Lingyi had asked her to act as a matchmaker.

The lady understood everything at once.

No wonder the two of them were angry. Most likely, the old habit of the fourth son to be arbitrary and domineering came back. Without saying a word, he asked the second daughter-in-law to go back to her parents' home to plead for him. After everything was settled, he remembered to tell the eleventh lady.

The lady's face darkened slightly when she heard this.

"It's all my fault." The second wife saw it and sighed, "You also know that my sister-in-law and I are enemies. When the Marquis asked me to speak for him, I didn't want to offend him. I also thought that if someone else spoke, it might work, but if I spoke, my sister-in-law would definitely not agree. I was prepared to be perfunctory. So I didn't ask more questions, for fear that the Marquis would misunderstand that I was worried that he couldn't control the people in the house." As she spoke, an embarrassed expression appeared on her face, "Who knew that my brother thought it was a good idea. He agreed on the spot. I also heard that the Marquis wanted to find someone with a docile personality, so he immediately decided on Roune. This is the opposite. I was embarrassed. I met my fourth brother's wife at your place that day. She was a very polite person, but she didn't say a word when she met me. I thought to myself at that time, it's bad, either my fourth brother's wife doesn't agree with this marriage, or the marquis didn't mention it beforehand. "The second wife looked at the old lady and smiled bitterly, "I couldn't say anything. I was just thinking about how to untie this rope, but who knew they would come to my place." Then she smiled, "Not only did they thank me, but they also asked me to go back tomorrow to test my brother's mood!" She also advised the old lady, "Don't worry. I saw that the two of them were singing the same tune, and everything was fine!"

The Madam listened to what the Second Madam said, and then thought of what Madam Du said about them talking and laughing, her face lightened up a little: "It's just that the Fourth Master's temper needs to be changed! Fortunately, our family is simple, and there are several families living together. How can you let Eleventh Lady put her face!"

"The Marquis is the head of the family!" said the Second Lady. "He is the one who takes care of all the ups and downs in the family. Sometimes he really has to be more arbitrary. I think the Fourth Sister-in-law is also a reasonable person. If nothing else, at least the two of them didn't quarrel over this matter. Didn't you always say that a pot fits a lid? I think the Marquis and the Fourth Sister-in-law are really a good match!"

The lady couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "What are you talking about!"

Seeing the old lady happy, the second lady also laughed: "You didn't see that when the Marquis came to my place, he kept saying 'we'. Has the Marquis ever been like this before?"

The lady nodded slightly as she recalled the past. She asked about Xu Siyu's marriage: "...If it can be accomplished, it will be a really good marriage!"

The old man is also a very insightful person and can see the twists and turns in this matter.

"You know my brother." The Second Lady poured a cup of hot tea for the Grand Lady and sat down next to her again. "Unless the Marquis thinks that our Roune is not good enough for Brother Yu, then there is nothing that cannot be accomplished!"

The lady smiled and said modestly: "Brother Yu is a concubine's son after all..."

The Second Lady immediately interrupted the Grand Lady: "But he is also the Marquis's son! He is a descendant of our Xu family!"

The Madam Tai was very satisfied with the Second Madam's answer, and a trace of relief flashed in her eyes. She said, "Before we officially talk about this matter, please find a chance for me and Eleventh Lady to take a look at the child - there were so many people that day, I didn't see it clearly!"

The second wife responded with a smile.

Mother Du is back.

The Madam Tai did not avoid the Second Madam and asked Madam Du directly: "What did you say?"

Madam Du bowed to the Madam Tai and the Second Madam and said, "The old marquis said that he would send Madam here early tomorrow morning."

The lady let out a long sigh.

The second lady asked with concern: "What happened?"

"That girl from Danyang," the lady said with a rather helpless look on her face, "was summoned to Jining every other day for Sister Xin. She's going too often."

The second lady thought for a moment and said, "How about asking them to move somewhere else?"

The lady said, "You and I are thinking the same thing. I will discuss this with the fourth son when he comes. If it doesn't work, we can build a yard for them in the garden." Then she asked Jining, "Are you still giving lectures to the fifth lady?"

"No." Mother Du smiled, "She went to the Fourth Madam's place!"

The lady was a little surprised when she heard this: "Is the Marquis not here?"

"It is said that Lord Ma has arrived, and the Marquis has gone to the study in the outer courtyard."

The lady smiled and said, "No wonder Jining dared to go to Shiyi Niang."

The second lady asked, "Master Ma is here? Does Master Ma come here often these days?"

Mother Du smiled and said, "I've been here a few times. I wouldn't say I come here often."

As she was talking, a little maid came in hurriedly: "Madam, Eunuch Lei is here!" She added, "He is wearing ordinary clothes."

He was wearing casual clothes and came quietly.

The old lady's face changed slightly, and the second lady had already squatted down to put on her shoes.

"Don't worry about it." The lady looked at her and told her, "Mother Du will take care of it. Go and invite Lord Thunder to come in."

The second lady responded and left.

Mother Du hurriedly helped the lady straighten her clothes and went to the courtyard gate.
