He Qiuniang carried Shi Yu to the Fushou Hall of Old Madam Shi.
Last night, Shi Mianzhi's newlywed wife, Wei Yanyan, was already having a pleasant chat with Madam Shi at Fushou Hall.
Although Madam Shi disliked Wei Yanyan for cheating on her son.
But since being cuckolded could lead to promotions and wealth, the old woman accepted it.
As long as the powerful figures in the capital don't say anything, she can simply ignore them and pretend she knows nothing.
If it doesn't work out, we can always find another one later.
Anyway, his son is so outstanding and good-looking, it won't be difficult for him to remarry.
"Mother." He Qiuniang greeted them as she entered the room, carrying her child.
She secretly glanced at Wei Yanyan, the bride who had just entered the house yesterday.
Hmm~
Her complexion was terrible; even thick makeup couldn't cover the injuries on her face.
It seems the two of them had a pretty serious fight last night.
Seeing that the two of them were not getting along, He Qiuniang felt relieved and happy.
However, when the old lady saw He Qiuniang's elegant demeanor adorned with gold and silver, her face instantly darkened.
"I've told you so many times, you should be humble."
"You are so extravagant, with your head full of gold, silver and pearl hairpins."
"We want everyone in the entire capital to know."
"Is our Shi family's daughter-in-law from a lowly merchant family?"
“Mother, that’s not what the Shi family said when they asked me to marry them,” He Qiu Niang retorted calmly.
She was no longer the He Qiuniang of the past; she would no longer be submissive and try to please the mother and son without any principles.
"How dare you!" Old Madam Shi slammed her hand on the table in anger.
[Oh no, I'm peeing! Quick, find a basin to catch it!]
"..."
As soon as Shi Yu uttered his teasing, childlike voice, Old Madam Shi choked up instantly.
Wei Yanyan secretly glanced at Old Man Shi's lower body.
Is this old woman really leaking urine?
Ugh, that's disgusting.
She quickly turned her head to the side and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
He Qiuniang glanced at them: Do you need me to call someone for you?
"You...you're a complete scoundrel!" Old Madam Shi cursed angrily.
"It seems that I was right to let Mianzhi remarry!"
"Never mind, I won't say anything more to you."
"Now that the new lady has entered the house, you shall hand over the power of housekeeping."
"Mother, are you sure you want me to hand over the power of managing the household to the new wife?"
He Qiuniang frowned slightly, as if she were somewhat saddened.
"She is the first wife, and you are the second wife. The power to manage the household should rightfully be handed over to her," Old Madam Shi said domineeringly.
[That wicked old woman!]
Shi Yu angrily waved her little fist.
They even dared to ask my mother to relinquish her power as housekeeper.
It seems like everyone knows you just received a ruby the size of a pigeon's egg from Wei Yanyan.
A ruby the size of a pigeon's egg?
He Qiuniang looked at Old Madam Shi with eyes full of disappointment.
It turns out that the new lady could be won over with just a ruby the size of a pigeon's egg.
Does she know that the delicacies she enjoys every day are worth more than countless pigeon eggs and rubies?
She was, after all, a pampered lady who had never seen the world, so poor that she lacked discernment.
He Qiuniang was indifferent, and her face was also indifferent.
[Hey, I'm so angry! Quickly find me some gossip to cheer me up.]
Shi Yu's sweet, childlike voice continued.
Melon 66, [Haha, Yu Yu, there just happens to be an old lady's melon here.]
It smells delicious!
Does it smell good now?
Madam Shi instinctively tightened her legs and quickly brought them together.
She wondered, she hadn't actually wet herself.
I like melons that have a good flavor.
[Speak quickly!]
Shi Yu nestled happily in He Qiu Niang's arms.
Gua66, [Yuyu, your grandma's room has a lot of men's sweaty underwear hidden inside.]
I take it out and smell it every night before bed.
Madam Shi's face immediately turned pale: She was just trying to help me sleep! She absolutely didn't steal anyone!
He Qiuniang: Mother, you've been a widow for so long, do you want a second spring?
Wei Yanyan: You shameless old man!
Gua66, [And the sweatier the clothes, the more your grandma likes them.]
【Oh~ Whoosh~】Shi Yu excitedly whistled in his mind.
[Those sweaty, smelly clothes from emptying manure were exactly what my grandma liked best.]
Gua66: [Yuyu, you know what, you actually guessed right.]
Your grandma's favorite smell before bed was the sweaty, smelly clothes of old man Sun who emptied the manure bins.
She found the smell of feces mixed with sweat on it particularly comforting, a way to remind herself of past hardships and cherish present happiness!
"Why doesn't she just eat shit and live right next to the latrine?!" Shi Yu said with utter disgust.
[Oh, what a pity.]
Such a huge scoop, and I can't let my mother know about it.
Otherwise, we can arrest that old man Sun and then search my grandmother's room.
Caught red-handed in the act of adultery, his reputation is ruined in his later years.
Just thinking about it is so exciting, hahaha...
Shi Yu nestled happily in He Qiu Niang's arms.
Old Madam Shi, who had been eavesdropping, secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
Arrest Old Man Sun, then search her room?
That won't do.
Her chastity memorial arch has stood for almost 30 years, how could someone find a stain on it?
"I suddenly feel unwell in my chest, you two get out of here right now."
Madam Shi quickly got up and sent them away.
She needed to hurry back and destroy the evidence to avoid being discovered.
"Mother, what about my power to manage the household?" Wei Yanyan asked unwillingly.
At this moment, Madam Shi was too busy playing with fire to pay any attention to Wei Yanyan.
"We'll talk about it later."
