Chapter 264 Good days are yet to come!
The second master of the An family was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes turned red instantly.
He hurriedly knelt down with his wife and daughter, and kowtowed heavily to Tang Bao:
"I will never forget the princess's kindness today! In the future, if you have any orders, I will do it even if it means losing everything and sacrificing my life!"
Tang Bao lowered his eyes and looked at the three people kneeling on the ground. He shyly tapped the ground with the tip of his shoe and said in a baby voice, "You're welcome. Get up!"
She didn't help them for nothing. She did good deeds, punished bad guys, and captured evil spirits. She gained a lot of merit today!
As she spoke, she secretly glanced at the considerable number of merit points, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth into two dimples.
Mr. An knelt stubbornly and took out a stack of banknotes he had prepared long ago. "Here are five thousand taels of banknotes. I beg the princess to grant me some amulets to protect my wife and daughter..."
Little Tangbao's eyes rolled around, and he thought that their family of four really needed some amulets and calming talismans right now, so he stretched out his little hand and took the banknote.
Ruan Shi was sharp-eyed. She noticed the icing sugar on the princess's collar and quickly offered her another three thousand taels of silver: "Your Majesty, we are so grateful for your kindness... This little gift is for you to buy some candy. Please don't refuse it!"
“…” Little Tangbao stared at the banknote with sparkling eyes.
Could she really use so much silver to buy candy? Would Daddy and Sister Chuntai really not be angry?
"Princess," Chuntai couldn't help but hold her forehead, "We should go back..."
Oh my god! Three thousand taels of silver, how much candy can I buy?!
Why did Madam An insist on buying candy for the princess? Wouldn't it be better to buy ink and paper?
What if the princess takes it seriously, buys and eats as much as she wants, and eventually all her teeth will be decayed!
I didn't listen! I didn't listen!
I hope the princess didn’t listen!!
The girl kneeling beside Ruan saw Tang Bao staring at the banknote, looking as if she wanted to accept it but was embarrassed...
He quickly stood up, took the banknote from his mother's hand, and stuffed it into Tang Bao's backpack. "This is a small gift from the adults, please accept it, Princess!"
She leaned close to Tang Bao's ear and whispered, "If you are free during the New Year, please come to my house. There will be lucky money!"
"Thank you, Sister An!" The little one smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. "Thank you, Lord An! Thank you, Madam An!"
As soon as the voice fell, Xiao Tangbao turned around and was about to leave...
Suddenly, the two old ladies staggered out of the room, crying and rushing towards the second master of the An family. They looked like two old cats whose tails were stepped on!
Master An knew that the little princess always loved to watch the fun, so he quietly moved a step and blocked Xiao Tangbao's way...
What family disgrace or not...it's worth it if I can make the princess smile!
"Second brother!" Aunt An grabbed Second Master An's hand, her nails almost digging into the flesh. "I was wrong at the beginning. I apologize to you!"
She sobbed and pointed at her bloodstained face, staring at the Second Master of the An Family without blinking. "How dare that bitch Zhao attack an elder! She's violated one of the seven grounds for divorce. You must kick her out of the An Family!"
She gasped and pointed at An Junting viciously, "And that bastard, he's just as much of a nuisance as his mother! Get them all out!!"
"..." The corners of Mr. An's mouth twitched, and before he could answer, Mrs. An stumbled over to him.
"Nonsense! Jun Ting is the only bloodline of our second branch!"
"Sooner or later, he will be registered as the legitimate son under the name of the main wife and inherit my son's family business!"
The surroundings suddenly became quiet...
Chuntai bent down and picked up Tangbao. She couldn't help but give Madam An a cold look. "Tsk, she wants that bastard to inherit more than just her son's family business, right?"
"This old lady from the An family is so greedy! She wants a legitimate grandson, but she's reluctant to give up Ruan's family background and dowry... She's trying to force Ruan to death!"
Tang Bao: "..."
For the first time, Master An saw the word "madness" on his mother's face...
He looked at the pale faces of his wife and daughter and sighed helplessly, "Since that's the case, then please ask mother to arrange to open the ancestral hall!"
Upon hearing this, Madam An slapped her thigh and said, "Oh! I'll go and invite the elders!"
She ran away in such a hurry that she completely forgot about Xiao Tangbao's existence, fearing that if she was any slower, she would regret it...
Second Master An cast a cold glance at the Zhao mother and son in the corner, then turned to Tang Bao and bowed deeply: "I dare to ask the princess to stay and be a witness for us..."
Seeing Xiao Tangbao nodded in agreement, Aunt An lost her balance and fell heavily to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was settled, after everyone had left, Zhao walked slowly to the front of Aunt An and squatted down slowly: "Mother, do you know why you fell into the water that winter?"
The corners of Zhao's lips curled up slightly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes...
"Back then, my father was at the end of his rope, his wife and children were about to starve to death. To find a wealthy marriage, he came up with the idea of a hero saving a beautiful woman..."
"That night, he took advantage of the Lantern Festival crowds and quietly gave you a push by the river. Who knew you'd bring a bunch of maids and nannies with you... There was nothing he could do. Even if he saw you struggling in the ice hole, he could only pick up your purse and run away!"
"Heh..." Zhao covered her lips with her sleeve and couldn't help but sneered, "It's fate, after all these twists and turns, he finally married you."
"Oh, by the way, I'm afraid you don't know yet, but Hua'er has an older brother who is from the same mother as him."
"Thanks to your money over the past few decades, my mother and my brother have not only not starved to death, but have actually lived a prosperous life... Hua'er is here to thank you, aunt!"
What a shitty mother!
When she becomes the second master's concubine, calling her aunt will be considered well-educated!
"You, you..." Aunt An was so angry that she was shaking all over, her face flushed red, and her triangular eyes were almost bulging out.
She raised her hand to hit Zhao, but suddenly her eyes rolled back and she fell backwards like a puppet with its strings cut.
"You fainted already?" Zhao slapped An's face fiercely. "My father is crazy, but you've beaten and killed so many maids out of jealousy... This is all retribution for you!"
Zhao stood up, left her unconscious adoptive mother behind, and took her son with her head held high and chest puffed out, heading straight for the An family ancestral hall.
Ruan is ignorant of current affairs and stubborn... The Second Master wants to open an ancestral hall, so he must record her and her son directly in the family tree...
From now on, she will be on equal footing with the Ruan family...
No!
She has a son, but Ruan doesn't!
From now on, this second room...will be hers sooner or later!
Her good days are yet to come!
