Then Su Fangfei and Ren Yaoting took them to the eldest wife of the Su family. The courtyard of the eldest wife of the Su family was much more lively. In addition to them, there were several young girls of the same age as them, as well as several wives.
Although Old Lady Su is the eldest in the Su family, it's the eldest wife who truly rules the household. It's said that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law once fought for a while, but now Old Lady Su has settled down, while the eldest wife thrives. It's a story of the east wind prevailing over the west, or the west wind prevailing over the east, with some families rejoicing while others are sad.
"Cousin, can you talk to my aunt and let us go to the garden to play?" Seeing a gentle young woman walked in, Ren Yaoting let go of Ren Yaoqi's hand, walked over to her, and whispered coquettishly.
Ren Yaoqi's gaze was also fixed on the young woman. The smile on his face did not change, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
Zeng, the eldest young master's wife of the Su family, stretched out her finger and gently scratched Ren Yaoting's nose, with a soft and doting smile on her face: "Smart boy, you just order me around. You wanted to go out, why didn't you tell your mother-in-law?"
Su Fangfei also came up, took Zeng's other hand, shook it gently, and smiled slyly: "Sister-in-law, mother loves you the most, you will definitely win if you go and tell her."
Zeng looked at them, suppressed her smile, sighed, and said helplessly: "I can't afford to offend my sister-in-law, what else can I say?"
Su Fangfei and Ren Yaoting looked at each other and laughed.
When Zeng came to Ren Yaoqi's side, she subconsciously glanced at him, smiled at him, and nodded. Then she went to the Su family's eldest wife and whispered a few words to her.
Mrs. Su looked at the young ladies here and nodded.
Seeing Zeng coming back, Ren Yaoting was the first to greet her, and couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? How is it? What did my aunt say? Did she agree?"
Zeng sighed, then smiled and blinked: "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission."
Ren Yaoting's face suddenly broke into smiles.
Su Fangfei still remembered that she was the host, and hurried to invite the other ladies to go stroll around the yard together.
The ladies all laughed when they heard this, but no one refused to go.
Everyone knew that it wasn't just the ladies and wives who came to the Su family today. The second son of the Su family was holding a poetry reading, and there were quite a few young men from prominent families, erudite and talented, who had come to the Su family today. They said they were going to stroll around the courtyard, but in reality, they were all just trying to sneak a peek at the elegant demeanor of these talented people. Everyone knew this tacitly. As long as it wasn't out of the ordinary, the elders would turn a blind eye.
It is not very likely to do anything out of line, after all, the maids and servants in the yard and garden are staring at you with fiery eyes and they are not for show.
The eldest lady of the Su family and Su Fangfei asked several young ladies to walk in front. Ren Yaoting deliberately pulled Ren Yaoqi's sleeve, and the two of them walked a few steps behind.
"Fifth sister, I heard that he will be here today too."
Ren Yaoqi watched her maid Ping Guo quietly retreat. After hearing Ren Yaoting's words, she subconsciously asked, "Who's coming back?"
After asking, she saw Ren Yaoting gently pulling at her skirt with a shy look on her face, and she immediately understood that the "he" Ren Yaoting was referring to was no one other than Han Yunqian.
Perhaps because Ren Yaoqi knew that she had a crush on Han Yunqian, Ren Yaoting had always been closer to Ren Yaoqi than to other sisters, and was willing to tell her everything in secret.
"Fifth sister, Master Yun will definitely write a poem today." She looked around and then lowered her voice, "I'll have someone steal his poem later."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned. Looking at Ren Yaoting beside her, whose face was flushed but eyes were bright, she thought for a moment and advised, "Seventh sister, what do you want the poem he wrote for? What if someone finds out?"
Ren Yaoting frowned, then pouted, "Just let it be! It's the best if it's discovered! My uncle and aunt love me the most. If they find out, they definitely won't scold me. They'll even find a way to help me make amends. Besides, because of the salt well incident, my uncle and the Han family have been getting closer recently. If my uncle steps in... Fifth sister, do you think I have a chance?"
