However, when Ren Yaoying thought about marrying into the Lei family and recalled the talent and appearance of the Lei family head, she felt a little hesitant. At this time, Ren Yaoying hated her status as a concubine even more. If she had been a legitimate child, there would be no such trouble. Ren Yaohua had fallen out of favor in the Ren family, and Old Madam Ren would definitely let her marry in her place.
However, Ren Yaoying also considered that since Ren Yaohua had already fallen out of favor with the elders of the Ren family, and given her temperament, she was sure to have a rift with Old Madam Ren in the future, then between her and Ren Yaohua, the Ren family would definitely choose her, the obedient one, over the bad-tempered and difficult-to-control Ren Yaohua. She had her own family's support for Ren Yaohua, and with the tactics she had learned from her aunt, it wasn't certain that Ren Yaohua would be able to dominate her after marrying into the Lei family.
Ren Yaoying looked at Ren Yaohua, who was standing with Ren Yaoqi, with a flickering look in her eyes. As long as she could gain the favor of Old Lady Ren, she could convince Old Lady Ren to let her stay in the old house until she got married. With the help of Old Lady Ren, she could replace all the people around her with her own people. Then she wouldn't have to worry about Ren Yaohua's revenge anymore.
Thinking of this, Ren Yaoying became excited again. This excitement even overcame her fear of Ren Yaohua these days, and it was filled with a thrill of excitement. She was afraid of Ren Yaohua, but she hated Ren Yaohua even more. She even dreamed of stepping on Ren Yaohua and running over her several times.
Neither Ren Yaoqi nor Ren Yaohua looked at Ren Yaoying. Ren Yaoqi kept his eyes slightly lowered, while Ren Yaohua looked at the pastel beauty bottle opposite, with no expression on his face.
Old Madam Ren also looked towards Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua. Her gaze swept across Ren Yaohua's face, and finally stopped at Ren Yaoqi: "Qi'er, you came at the right time today. You should also come and learn how to select people. Maybe it will be useful in the future."
When Old Lady Ren spoke to Ren Yaoqi, her voice and demeanor were gentle and loving, but her words hinted at a certain killing of a chicken to scare the monkeys. She was using Ren Yaohua's case to warn Ren Yaoqi of the consequences of disobedience.
Ren Yaohua's betrayal completely infuriated Old Madam Ren and Old Master Ren. Old Master Ren realized that even if Ren Yaohua married into the Lei family, she might still be out of the Ren family's control, so he decided to have Ren Yaoying marry Teng. Compared to Ren Yaohua, Ren Yaoying was much easier to control, so in order to gain an advantage over Ren Yaohua, she had to rely on her natal family.
Old Lady Ren couldn't help but think of Ren Yaoqi again. Ren Yaoqi's future would definitely not be too bad, so she had to keep Ren Yaoqi under control and make her understand that if she wanted to live well, she had to have the support of her natal family.
How could Ren Yaoqi not understand the meaning behind Old Lady Ren's words? If it weren't for the wrong occasion, she would have wanted to laugh.
She seemed to have completely misunderstood Old Lady Ren's hint. She took a serious look at the maids and said with a smile, "Grandmother is so thoughtful! These maids are all good-looking, and my granddaughter likes them right away. How about I give these four in the front row to me, and the four in the back row to my third sister?"
The two most beautiful maids were standing in the front row. Ren Yaoqi picked them up in a pile like picking carrots.
Old Lady Ren's smile faltered, and she frowned, glancing at Ren Yaoqi. She wondered if this girl was too young to understand these things. Old Lady Ren was simply trying to use this opportunity to teach Ren Yaoqi a lesson; she had no intention of actually choosing a dowry for her. Besides, these maids were specially retrieved by Old Master Ren, and two had even undergone special training. Their purpose was to send them to the Lei family to win over Lei Ting.
