Afternoon.
Jiang Ranli was sitting lazily on the chaise longue, feeling drowsy, when she was suddenly awakened by a rapid knock on the door.
Sidai went to open the door, only to see that the person knocking was a maidservant of Mrs. Dong E.
"It's Sister Qingmei. How come you have time to come here today?" Sidai talked to her familiarly.
Qingmei smiled when she heard that, and then said, "The lady in chief asked me to invite the concubine. Please help the concubine to wash up. I still have to go and notify other masters, so I'll leave first."
Perhaps because they felt that Jiang Ranli posed no threat, Fu Jin Dong E's attitude towards her was a little cold, but not harsh. Although everyone in the mansion looked down on Jiang Ranli, because she posed no threat to them, their attitudes towards Si Dai and Si Xian were still acceptable.
After hearing what Sidai said, the sleepy Jiang Ranli couldn't help but feel puzzled. With her current appearance, no matter what happened in the mansion, no one would pay attention to her. Why did Fu Jin send someone to call her today?
Despite his doubts, Jiang Ranli quickly packed up and set off.
When she arrived at the main hall, it was already full of people, and Mrs. Dong E was sitting in the main seat as usual.
"My concubine greets the Madam, may the Madam live forever," Jiang Ranli bowed politely.
"Stand up and come sit over here," Dong E pointed to the seat on the left and motioned Jiang Ranli to sit down.
Although the Ninth Prince's concubines were extremely disdainful of Jiang Ranli, Jiang Ranli's status was higher than theirs after all, and Dong E was also sitting here at the moment, so everyone bowed to her reluctantly.
"I called all the sisters here today because I have something to discuss with you..."
Seeing that everyone was present, Dong E began to speak. After a long time, everyone in the hall kept their mouths shut, which was in stark contrast to the lively scene before.
Jiang Ranli looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose. He kept his eyes down and said nothing, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Oh my god, that Ninth Prince is really something. He just married me, his concubine, and within a few days, he brought three or four more concubines into the mansion. The point is, doesn’t he know that the backyard of the mansion is not big enough to accommodate him?
After sighing, Dong E was heard saying, "The house in the backyard is a bit crowded for the time being, and the sisters who have just come into the mansion are very much valued by the master, so everyone should come up with ideas and see how to settle the new sisters."
Dong E's life as the legitimate wife was really frustrating. Her husband didn't care about her at all and kept sending other women into the house every few days. If she were her, she would have been furious and would never be as calm as she was.
Looking at Dong E's face which never showed any emotion, Jiang Ranli once again cursed Yin'er in his heart as a heartless man and a pervert, and expressed his deep sympathy for Dong E.
"Madam, I wonder if you have any picture album of the mansion."
Seeing that more than a dozen women ignored Dong E, Jiang Ranli, who had his own plans in mind, spoke first.
"Atlas? What do you want that for?" asked Dong E.
"Oh, that's right. I thought that since my master has taken in a few new sisters, and the houses in the mansion are temporarily not enough, I wanted to see if there is any vacant place in the mansion. If there is, I will move there and give the current yard to the new sisters."
As soon as Jiang Ranli said this, the whole room was in an uproar. Everyone looked at her in disbelief. Even Sixian and Sidai were shocked by their master's words.
"Miss, you are a concubine, why do you have to give up your place to those concubines?" Sixian and Sidai anxiously tugged at the corner of Jiang Ranli's clothes.
