After so many years, Chen has given birth to five children, but her appearance is still as good as before.
I see her pitiful look, which really makes people jealous.
[Wow, my mother is as good as the goddess of Luo River. Keep acting, mother, I love watching.]
[How many layers of white powder did mother put on her face? ]
Chen: If I had known not to bring the little one with me, I would have almost been unable to continue the performance.
The old lady frowned.
In the past, whenever she was angry, Chen would find ways to comfort her, but now, she just sat on the stool as if nothing had happened.
What she just said, if she punished Chen, it would make her seem like an unkind mother-in-law.
But looking at her pale face, it doesn't look like she is pretending.
But my son was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, and this matter cannot just be let go.
"Since you are ill, let the servants take care of these things carefully."
Chen: "Thank you, old lady, for your understanding."
Wu Cuirou's eyes kept moving between the two of them. Did the old lady forgive her just like that?
Every time Chen had bleeding, she also got a lot of good things.
But this time, why did the old lady's expression change so quickly?
Jiang Yuanxi, who was in Chen's arms, was worried about Chen.
[Mother always bleeds when she tries to please the old lady, why is it different this time? ]
Jiang Yuanxi was curious.
[Although my mother is wealthy, the Duke's Mansion is a hole. In my opinion, it is better not to have the housekeeper's power. ]
[Over the years, I have spent so much money to raise a family of ruthless people. My mother has suffered so much. ]
Jiang Yuanxi's words really touched Chen's heart.
The Duke's Mansion looked glamorous, but it did not have much property. In recent years, it had relied entirely on her dowry for its survival.
Although her dowry was generous, she no longer wanted to spend the money on these people.
Chen pretended to cough for a long time, and finally took a deep breath.
"Mom, my current health makes it difficult for me to take on such a heavy responsibility. I am willing to give up the power of housekeeper."
Seeing that she looked sick and dying, the old lady felt embarrassed.
Chen has been the housekeeper for many years, and over the years, she has managed the household very well inside and out.
She had been quiet for so many years, and now she suddenly gave up her housekeeper power, which she didn't agree with in her heart.
Just as he was about to persuade her again, he saw Chen coughing and gasping for breath.
Old Lady:......
"Forget it, forget it. I'll hand it over to you when you recover." If she were to continue to be the housekeeper, wouldn't everyone in the capital know that she was mistreating her daughter-in-law?
Wu Cuirou was happy in her heart. For so many years, the housekeeping power had always been in the hands of the first wife, making their second wife weak.
If they get the stewardship, wouldn't that mean they have an extra layer of help?
Thinking of this, Wu Cuirou began to recommend herself.
"Mother, my sister-in-law has worked hard, and you just came back. It's better to let your daughter-in-law do such tiring work."
Jiang Yuanxi laughed secretly after hearing this.
[Mother, just leave it to her. The Duke's Mansion was lost in the hands of the Second House. If the Second House hadn't produced a phoenix, the Duke's Mansion would have collapsed long ago.]
Chen was reluctant at first, but after hearing what her daughter said, she felt that if she didn't say something, she would be unworthy of the money she had paid over the years.
