Chapter 443 The Old Lady Praises Tao Yiran
Mrs. Xu felt a little regretful. In her opinion, Xin An was indeed smart and capable, but the situation in the court was too difficult for her. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, she stood up and said goodbye.
After seeing Madam Xu off, Xin An seemed to be lost in thought. Before she could turn around, a servant from Prince Jin's mansion brought her a letter, saying that Princess Jin invited her to her mansion tomorrow for a chat.
In the evening, Tang Mo picked up the old lady. The vegetarian old lady, who chanted Buddhist scriptures, got red in the eyes when she learned that Tang Gang's illness not only did not heal but became worse. Wang felt guilty for a moment. To her, the old lady was a kind mother-in-law who had taken good care of her over the years. She shouldn't make the old lady sad.
But if she wanted to make the old lady happy, that would mean harming her own son and daughter-in-law. She knew clearly what was more important.
"Given the current situation in the capital, we shouldn't have alerted mother so early, but the young master from the princess's mansion lives in the mansion, and the old lady of the Zhang family comes almost every day. It would be bad if there was no one to talk to, so we brought mother back early."
The old lady sighed, "You should have sent someone to tell me this earlier. I heard from my second son that you have been worried and overworked these days and your health is not good. Thank you for your hard work."
"As long as the Marquis can recover soon, your daughter-in-law won't feel tired."
The old lady didn't doubt her at all. In her opinion, the relationship between Tang Gang and Tang Mo had eased a lot in recent days. As a wife and mother, Wang should know what to do.
Seeing that Xin An had lost weight, he held her hand and talked about her hard work. Then, regardless of his own fatigue, he went straight to Chunhuayuan. She had a great-grandson, and she had been thinking about him for a long time.
In Chunhua Courtyard, Aunt Liu held the swaddling baby and carefully placed it in the old lady's arms, saying, "The little boy is very healthy, has a strong mouth, and is energetic. He looks very much like the prince."
The old lady looked at her adorable great-grandson in her arms with such fondness that her expression relaxed and wrinkles disappeared. She raised her eyes to Tao Yiran and said, "You have worked hard and safely gave birth to the great-grandson of the Marquis's family. Grandmother will remember your great achievement."
"honeydew."
Gan Lu held a large box and brought it to Tao Yiran. "Young Madam, this is what the old lady prepared specially for you. Do you like it?"
When the box was opened, inside was a complete set of head jewelry, made of pure gold inlaid with gems, looking magnificent.
Wang saw a flash in her eyes but soon returned to normal and forced a smile, "This was a gift from my father on my mother's birthday. He personally ordered a craftsman to make it, and the jewels inlaid on it were selected by him personally."
"I remember my mother wore it once on her birthday that year."
The old lady looked nostalgic, "This headdress is too valuable, and it was a gift from your father, so I have carefully kept it until today."
Neither of them noticed the flash of disdain in Tao Yiran's eyes. In her opinion, this kind of gold jewelry was simply vulgar. She smiled and said, "Grandma spent a lot of money, Aunt Liu, please put it away carefully."
The old lady only had eyes for her obedient great-grandson and didn't mind Tao Yiran's indifference, but Ganlu saw it clearly.
"This child really looks like the eldest when he was little. The eldest also looked like this when he was little."
The old lady was so fond of her that Ganlu smiled and reminded her, "The old lady has a little granddaughter. Would you like to let the wet nurse bring her to see her?"
Aunt Yue was a concubine, so the old lady naturally couldn't visit her room. She said, "Ask the wet nurse to bring Qi Jin here. The child should have a name."
Wang continued, "The child was ill a while ago, so Aunt Yu gave him a nickname of a slave. A humble name is easier to raise. As for a full name, she will give him a new one after the Marquis recovers. The child is well taken care of by Aunt Yu, and is plump and cute."
I have to say that Tang Rong is quite good at having children. All three children look good. Even Qijin, no, Nuer, and Wang Shi likes him very much.
Soon both children were brought in. The older one, Nuer, was almost half a year old, and was just the right age to be adorable. He looked around curiously with his big black eyes. The old lady gave the legitimate great-grandson to Aunt Liu, and held Nuer in her arms, and was amazed again, "This child is so good."
"Yes, he looks like the eldest. His little face is round and pretty."
Nuer loved to laugh. When she laughed, she would hold her hands and chew on them, which melted the old lady's heart. Because she liked her great-granddaughter so much, she didn't even hold her great-granddaughter. She just let the wet nurse hold the child closer. She took a closer look at her and praised her a few words.
She gave some goodies to Yu Niang and Yue Niang respectively, and urged Wang Shi as soon as she left the house, "The second son's wife has also returned from Huaijiang. As a mother-in-law, you should also urge her to have children. They got married on the same day. You have seen the three children of the eldest son. They are so cute."
"Second brother, don't be busy with errands all day. Having children is a big deal. You should learn this from your elder brother."
Even though the eldest grandson has some bad points, he has three children, and that is his credit.
Wang smiled and said, "It's all about fate. The couple knows it. Didn't the Taoist priest say before that the eldest son's family hopes for an heir? Now it seems that the Taoist priest is also an expert."
The old lady smiled, feeling particularly happy. "I'm afraid the boss is not doing well in his position. You must remember to bring him some money every two months. Don't let him down."
Wang almost couldn't hold back the smile on her face. Her son had not had a rest since he came back to Beijing. He was working so hard. As a father, she couldn't see it and just felt that he was stealing the credit. As a grandmother, she couldn't see it either. In her eyes and heart, there was only her eldest grandson who gave her three great-grandchildren.
The eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a son and became the hero, while the second daughter-in-law was busy and deserved the praise of the three words "thank you for your hard work".
At this moment, she felt unfair for herself and her son and daughter-in-law.
The old lady was tired, so she went back to Chunrong Hall and rested quickly. Wang stood alone in the yard for a long time, then she sighed deeply, and then she asked someone to tell the old lady as soon as possible about the things that had been hidden from her and the rumors about Tao Yiran outside.

The old lady has lived a carefree and happy life for too long, and everyone wants to care for her, which is not good.
At this time, Tang Mo was in the room reading the post sent by Prince Jin's Mansion, and he said with a sigh, "This is really not easy."
He never doubted his wife's ability to socialize and make friends, but even though she tried her best for several months, there was no progress. "It's really hard to make connections in Prince Jin's Mansion."
"This shows that Prince Jin is not only extremely powerful but also a cautious person. The more this is the case, the more we need to spend more time on this. The Xu family is already very good, but several Xu families may not be able to compare to a Prince Jin."
"Sister Lin said that in this capital, the words of Prince Jin's wife are more effective than those of the Crown Princess."
Xin An looked at Tang Mo and said, "You've lost a lot of weight recently. I'll have someone measure you again tomorrow and make you some more clothes. The clothes you wore last year should be a bit too big for you."
"Let Qin Bo come and take your pulse and prescribe two medicinal recipes for you. I asked you to go to the medicinal food shop for lunch at noon. Did you go?"
Tang Mo put down the invitation and said, "I went there. After my subordinates found out, they shamelessly followed me. They always went with those people, and they ate more. So I didn't go there often."
"Are you stupid?"
Xin An said that it was not a banquet, it was just a matter of how much a few dishes would cost, "Are you going to put yourself in a difficult position just to prevent others from eating?"
"Let's go starting tomorrow. You're already tired and the food is not good, how can you bear it? In order to make sure you eat well, I'm willing to treat those people to dinner every time."
Tang Mo was so moved by these words that he hugged his wife and his eyes turned red. "Where did you learn these words? They really move people who hear them."
