Song Wanning is now married to Yin Yichen, so the job of housekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion will naturally fall on her in the future.
It seemed impossible to count all these things, but fortunately Song Wanning had a very good upbringing and had been in charge of the household at the Marquis of Zhongping's mansion, so she was naturally familiar with the job. Song Wanning accepted the housekeeping key given to her by Yin Yichen and began to calculate the property of the Prime Minister's mansion.
If you don't count it, you won't know. The Prime Minister's Mansion Yin Yichen's wealth is really huge, which actually surprised Song Wanning. The General's Mansion is also considered a wealthy family in the capital, but she didn't expect Yin Yichen's wealth to be so large.
Yin Yichen even handed over all his properties to Song Wanning. Before they got married, Yin Yichen came to Song Wanning to invest in the property, so it was normal to hand it over to her to manage now.
Although Yin Yichen was the only one in the Prime Minister's Mansion, his family was extremely wealthy. He owned a lot of land and shops in the capital, not to mention the manors and orchards further afield. Managing all of these things would be no easy task.
Yin Yichen said that in the past, they just let the managers do their work freely and gave them enough benefits. Now that there is a mistress in the family, those business that should be regulated must naturally be regulated.
Song Wanning was counting her possessions when her subordinate Caique came in from outside and said to her, "Madam, the Yin family sent someone with a message, inviting you to come over and have a seat."
Zhuque stood aside, a look of worry in his eyes. "Madam, the relationship between the Prime Minister and the Yin family is weak now. Do you want to go there? If you go, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with you. I think that the eldest lady is not a simple character."
"This will happen sooner or later. I might as well go meet this family." Song Wanning now looked at it with a more open mind. She smiled faintly and said, "I am Yin Yichen's wife now. Naturally, they dare not do anything to me. Maybe they are just afraid of some sour words. There is no need to be afraid. Sandra Ng is the same character as Nan Hongqiu, but she is a little more capable than Nan Hongqiu."
Zhuque and Caique both nodded and followed Song Wanning to the Yin family.
The Yin family mansion looked quite large, presumably due to their wealth, which was why they could afford such a large house. When Song Wanning entered, her mother led her to the main hall, where she could see from a distance that it was bustling with activity.
Wu Junrou gave birth to two sons, both of whom are now married, so it is naturally lively with the whole family sitting in the front hall.
Song Wanning was led into the main hall by her mother and said to Wu Junrou, "Madam, this is Yi Chen's daughter-in-law. I brought her here."
When Wu Junrou saw Song Wanning, she immediately stood up with a smile on her face and said to her, "I was wondering, no wonder Yi Chen is so obsessed with her. It turns out she's such a banished immortal. When he was little, Yi Chen said he didn't like beautiful women, but look at him now, he's chosen someone who looks like this."
Song Wanning smiled faintly at Wu Junrou, "Aunt, you're joking. I wonder if you asked your niece to come here today, but is there anything important you want to say?"
Wu Junrou was stunned at first, then smiled at Song Wanning, "It's nothing serious, it's just that Yi Chen and I had some disagreements. There were some misunderstandings on the day of your wedding. I didn't want to scare you, so I called you here to explain it to you."
Song Wanning bowed slightly, "Aunt, you're joking. Since I'm married to Yi Chen, husband and wife are one, so naturally I should be considerate of my husband in everything I do. Such a small matter can't scare me."
Seeing this, Wu Junrou remembered to ask Song Wanning to sit down, "Look, I've been talking for a long time, and I only remembered to ask you to sit down."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Song Wanning sat on a chair and listened to Wu Junrou introduce the two people next to her. She pointed at the taller woman sitting in front and said, "This is my eldest son Yin Wentang's wife. Her name is Yue Lian. We usually call her Lianzi, so Wanning will follow suit."
Wu Junrou's eyes moved to the woman next to her and she laughed out loud, "This is my second son Yin Wenzhi's wife, Qi Shu, and she's also easy to get along with. The sisters-in-law and relatives are all in the capital, so we should visit each other often and take care of each other. Now that Yi Chen has little contact with us, and his reputation outside is not very good, since Wan Ning is married, she should think of a way to protect Yi Chen's reputation."
After Song Wanning said this, she only said lightly, “Aunt is right.”
Wu Junrou was known for being easygoing and polite, but her two daughters-in-law were not so easy to get along with. As soon as Song Wanning sat down, Qi Shu, who was sitting at the other end, started to challenge her. She smiled and said, "My grandmother is now married to Yi Chen, holding all the power in the Prime Minister's Mansion. I'm afraid her life will be much easier than it was in the Marquis of Zhongping's Mansion."
"I just got married, so it's hard to say whether life will be easy or not." Song Wanning knew that Qi Shu was deliberately making things difficult for her by bringing up her other marriage and ridiculing her for having been married once.
Song Wanning was not angry at this. She just looked at Qi Shu and smiled, "Now the Prime Minister has given me the position of housekeeper. It may seem respectable to outsiders, but I have to manage such a large house. I don't know how busy it is. I treat you so well, so I call you that. But now that the Prime Minister's Mansion has been divided into different branches and courtyards, Yichen has become the Prime Minister. If Second Madam wants to be polite, she should at least call me Madam."
Qi Shu's face suddenly darkened, "This..."
Wu Junrou, who was sitting over there, stepped forward to smooth things over. "We're all family, there's no need to be so clear about the differences."
Song Wanning put on a puzzled look, looked at Wu Junrou and said with a smile, "Aunt, I thought that after the separation of the mansions, we were two families. Everyone said we were relatives, but it was just a courtesy. I didn't expect that there was actually a saying of one family."
Wu Junrou looked at Song Wanning's expression and smiled awkwardly, "It was originally because of some misunderstandings that we were divided into two families. If the misunderstandings are resolved, we can become one family again."
Song Wanning's smile remained unchanged. "After all, we are still two families now. Aunt, please don't blame your nephew's wife for being unreasonable. Although I am now married to the Prime Minister, I cannot make decisions for him without authorization. I'm afraid he will be angry if he finds out when he comes back."
Seeing this, Wu Junrou didn't say much. She just looked at Song Wanning and smiled, "Wanning is right. It's natural for Yichen to be the one making the decisions in this family. It was I who was abrupt in today's matter."
Yue Lian, who was sitting in the back, spoke up at this time, "My mother-in-law has devoted herself to the Prime Minister's affairs since she was young, and now he is still so stubborn. From my perspective, my mother-in-law shouldn't have been so kind to the Prime Minister back then. She would have been so accustomed to him even if she had a dog at home."
