She was wearing a light blue dress and had a dignified and elegant demeanor.
"Oh, isn't this...?" Second Uncle was surprised.
The children and grandchildren below also had their faces filled with surprise, and the light in their eyes was fully revealed the moment Yuan Xueyue appeared.
What's more, he has several sons from his uncles.
That is, Guo Liangxian's cousins said,
"My eldest cousin's wife is extremely beautiful!"
"It is said that Lucheng is vast and sparsely populated, and beautiful women are rare, but the young lady of the Yuan family from Lucheng is so beautiful!"
"Back then, Master Yuan had such a sharp eye that he actually fell in love with my eldest cousin Liangxian!"
"What a blessing! If it were my family..." Unfortunately, he lost the competition that year and only received some reward money to live on.
"Cousin's wife."
Only the fourth uncle's grandson stood up slightly and bowed.
Fourth Uncle nodded in satisfaction, "You should marry a wife like your cousin's wife!"
The fourth cousin also smiled shyly.
All of this was seen by Nian.
They are so noisy!
Is there no one in the house?
Nian smiled and said, "Excuse me for making fun of you all. This is my daughter-in-law, Yuan Xueyue. Come, pay your respects to all of you uncles."
Yuan Xueyue didn't expect them to be so talkative. She was stared down as soon as she entered the room.
She bowed slightly and said,
"Fourth uncle, second uncle, third uncle, fifth uncle, and aunts."
These are the elders, and the rest are peers and juniors.
Among the uncles, only the fourth uncle is still alive. Among the uncles, only Guo Liangxian's father and the fourth uncle's son are gone.
This war brought disaster to many people.
Fortunately, the Guo family members are lucky and most of them are still alive!
Nian also rolled her eyes behind their backs, wondering why the war didn't kill them?
Fourth uncle smiled and said, "Great, great, it would be great if I had a granddaughter-in-law like this!"
The oldest elder was teasing, and everyone was laughing!
But Nian was not of high enough generation, so she smiled aggrievedly and said,
"Fourth Uncle, this is not a good thing to say. Where will our Liangxian put his face?"
Guo Liangxian also secretly clenched his fists in his sleeves. Has joking taken this far?
Seeing that the mother and son were angry, Yuan Xueyue remained calm.
I'm just worried that Yuan Xueyue is the mistress and it will affect the interests of the mansion.
In addition, the reputation of the General's Mansion, in the end, they just don't want their relatives to take advantage of it!
The second uncle said, "What the eldest cousin said is too harsh. The fourth uncle didn't mean anything else. He is old, so please don't take some of his words to heart."
Uncle San also said, "That's right, we all talk like this. We are all rough people, so don't be so formal, cousin."
The fifth uncle followed up, "That's right, this niece-in-law is so adorable and so beautiful, it's not too much for us to admire her."
After hearing what his three uncles said, Guo Liangxian could no longer sit still.
He said,
"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Fifth Uncle, I don't know how we entertained you in previous years, but this year I'm in the mansion. Even though you are the elders, you should consider who is the master of this mansion!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his three uncles became dissatisfied.
Second Uncle said, "Listen, sister-in-law, how dare a younger generation refute the words of an elder? How did sister-in-law teach Liangxian?"
Uncle Three and Uncle Five also started to blame.
Nian's face darkened, and she said in a slightly unhappy tone, "You are all my husband's cousins. When Liangxian's father was alive, you ignored him. Now that you have been in the capital for only a few years, you come to visit him every year. This year, Liangxian is a general."
"Thanks to the grace of the Xian King, Mr. Lian, all the dignitaries in the capital must show some respect to us, the virtuous ones!"
"As relatives, what qualifications do you have to act like elders in front of Liangxian?"
As soon as Nian's harsh words came out, the uncles immediately put away their playful smiles.
They realized that their words were too harsh, but after all they had already moved into the general's mansion, so they had to make some concessions in words in order to gain more benefits!
Second uncle raised his eyebrows and took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
"Look at your eldest cousin's wife. We brothers were just joking, but you took it seriously!"
"We are all the lifeblood of the Guo family. The ancestral hall is less than a few kilometers away from the general's mansion. How could we be disrespectful to Liangxian?"
"Isn't that right, General?"
General, what you said is too serious. Guo Liangxian is not a general.
This made Guo Liangxian look embarrassed, and the compliments were almost outrageous!
"Uncle, you're joking. Liangxian doesn't need your respect. He just needs you to stop acting like an elder to me. Liangxian should respect you uncles." Guo Liangxian said.
After he finished speaking, he bowed to the elders.
Uncle San laughed and said, "I'm afraid that Liangxian will become a general one day and won't take us three uncles seriously."
Uncle Wu also smiled and looked at Guo Liangxian.
Guo Liangxian gritted his teeth and said, "That won't happen..."
By then, how could you show up?
Nian couldn't bear to watch any longer and waved her hand, saying, "It's getting late, my cousins and their wives, please go downstairs and have dinner."
She turned her head and winked at Mother Cui.
Outside the main hall, there were four or five tables set up outdoors!
The main hall was too crowded, only enough for them to sit down, and they had to eat in the open courtyard.
The second uncles are not good people, they are here to cause trouble!
And then ask for benefits from it!
He looked around and said, "When I came to the capital, I asked about Liangxian. Didn't he have two concubines? Let's take a look!"
Guo Liangxian said,
"My concubine is not worthy of being in a noble place, and is not presentable. Uncle, please do not mention it again."
Second Uncle said, "Since it's in the mansion, we can't hide it, right? We brothers are not from a wealthy family, so we don't care about these worldly things."
Uncle San said,
"That's right, Liangxian, what are you afraid of? Are your concubines shameful? The uncles envy you so much. Unlike us who only have one wife each, you have three women!"
Uncle Wu also tutted, "There's no need to hide it, it's just a woman!"
Guo Liangxian's cousins also looked over with anticipation.
Nian's face darkened again.
Nian said, "My cousins, please be careful! This is not Lucheng, this is the capital!"
Seeing the awkward scene of Nian and Guo Liangxian entertaining relatives and being teased by them, Yuan Xueyue felt very happy.
Before, these were all answered by Yuan Xueyue herself.
Every reply left them speechless!
Now, Yuan Xueyue was just a lady in a corner, ordering the maids and servants to entertain the relatives well.
As long as no one takes action and nothing serious happens, Yuan Xueyue will not refute such indecent gossip.
Let go of other people's opinions and everything will disappear.
Sometimes, others just take advantage of the fact that you care about these details and use them to take advantage of you!
Seeing Yuan Xueyue sitting down, Nian said,
"Listen to what your uncles say, do they sound reasonable?"
What I mean is, let Yuan Xueyue refute it.
The three uncles looked over and wanted to hear what their niece-in-law had to say.
After all, my niece-in-law is beautiful and has a sweet voice, and they like to listen to whatever she says!
Yuan Xueyue smiled and said,
"The three uncles were just joking. Don't take it seriously, mother-in-law. It's not easy for relatives to get together once a year."
