The young woman's voice was not as gentle as Aunt Kang's, but rather the sharp and lively voice of a common woman.
Old Madam Ren did not reply immediately. There was a moment of silence outside. After a while, she said calmly, "I don't deserve it."
Mrs. Kang immediately smiled and said, "You deserve it, you deserve it. You are the ancestor, there is nothing you don't deserve."
This Kang sister-in-law must be a powerful person, but she was still a little reserved in front of Old Lady Ren. Old Lady Ren was deliberately giving her a cold look, and she also had a hint of uneasiness in her words.
This was exactly the effect Old Madam Ren was looking for. She immediately interrupted Mrs. Kang and said calmly, "I have guests arriving soon. If you have nothing else to do, please leave. Aunt Gui, please have the kitchen prepare a table for the guests from the Kang family to eat before they leave."
Old Mrs. Ren is about to see the guests off.
Mrs. Kang finally managed to get in and see the person in charge. She was unwilling to leave and immediately said with a smile, "Grandpa, I have something to ask you."
"What do you want?"
"This...can you ask the people around you to step back first?" Mrs. Kang seemed a little hesitant.
Mrs. Ren paused and said, "No need. You can do it."
The maids and servants who stayed with Old Lady Ren were all her confidants.
Seeing Old Lady Ren like this, Mrs. Kang stopped forcing her and just asked, "Is my sister-in-law okay?"
Old Madam Ren was speechless. Aunt Gui, who was serving beside her, said, "Our old lady treats Concubine Kang very well. If you are worried, go and take a look."
Mrs. Kang said hurriedly, "No, no, I'm not worried. Who are the Ren family? How could they treat my sister-in-law so harshly?"
"In that case, why are you here, Sister-in-law Kang?" It was still Aunt Gui who asked on behalf of Old Lady Ren.
Mrs. Kang smiled and said, "I'm here to take my sister-in-law back to her parents' home."
As soon as these words were spoken, the outer room fell silent. Even Ren Yaoqi and the others in the inner room paused as they threaded their needles.
"Madam Kang is still weak, so it's not convenient for her to go back to visit her relatives now. Moreover, she is still a concubine of our Ren family. If she wants to go back, she should first get permission from our old lady and her mistress, the Fifth Madam. Otherwise, wouldn't it be against the rules?" said Aunt Gui.
Nanny Gui thought that the Kang family thought their daughter had been wronged by the Ren family. That's why she did this. She wanted to stand up for her daughter. But Aunt Kang was just a concubine. Even if she gave birth, she had no relationship with the Kang family. Nanny Gui was reminding Mrs. Kang to recognize Aunt Kang's identity.
Old Mrs. Ren thought so too.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Kang said, "That's not what I meant. What I meant was... since our sister-in-law has lost her child, it's embarrassing for her to stay in the Ren family anymore. I'm here to take her home."
"Ridiculous!" Old Mrs. Ren lost her temper. "What do you think our Ren family is? A theater? You can come and go as you please?"
Nanny Gui hurried forward to comfort Old Madam Ren and served her tea and water.
Mrs. Kang was just an ordinary woman in the market. Seeing Old Lady Ren get angry, she was still a little scared. She forced a smile and said, "Old Lady, please don't be angry. I am actually doing this for the good of your Ren family."
Old Mrs. Ren snorted coldly.
