Chapter 1012, Doubles
What's happening outside the theater is still unknown in the flower hall.
At this time, Mrs. An was praising An Xin highly.
At the beginning, there were female relatives who agreed, but later on, the ladies of each family spoke of their own and ignored Madam An.
Although Mrs. An was a little angry about this, she didn't care too much. What annoyed her was that Daohua never responded. Her stubborn attitude made her hate her to the core.
After hesitating for a moment, Old Madam An deliberately told everyone about Xiao Yeyang's previous visit to the An Mansion.
By doing this, she was certain that today was the Duke of Fuguo's birthday. She believed that even if the girl from the Yan family was dissatisfied, she would not dare to cause trouble at this time.
"My An Xin loves painting. Prince Weiyuan knows this. He has even given An Xin some pointers before. If Princess doesn't mind, please summon her to the palace more often to paint for you in the future."
Daohua looked at Madam An expressionlessly. At this moment, she was too lazy to even maintain her face.
She admired the shamelessness of this old lady An very much. It was as if she couldn't read people's expressions and was taking advantage of her age to bully others.
The other female relatives present also looked at Madam An with indescribable expressions, all of them showing an expression of watching a show.
"Mrs. An, is your granddaughter an actress?"
Madam An was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage: "Princess Xiao, you are going too far. Although my An Xin is only a concubine's daughter, she is still a daughter of the An family. You actually compared her to an actor. You are too..."
Daohua interrupted Madam An directly: "Madam An, I don't mean to humiliate Miss An, it's you who made me think she was an actor."
"Didn't you tell me to summon her into the mansion at will?"
"Miss An isn't a servant in the palace. If she summons him at will, wouldn't she just be a street performer?"
Mrs. An was furious: "You"
Daohua looked at Madam An with a mocking look: "Madam An, if you want others to respect you, you must respect yourself first. If you don't take your granddaughter seriously, then there's no need for me to take her seriously."
The other ladies all lowered their heads to hide the smiles in their eyes.
Princess Xiao did not disappoint them. She slapped Madam An in the face without any mercy.
If they still can't see the An family's intentions, then they have wasted most of their lives in the backyard.
Old Madam An looked at Daohua's cold gaze, knowing that the Yan family girl was unwilling to even put in the superficial effort, and immediately snorted coldly, "The princess is really well-educated. Today, I have really opened my eyes."
Daohua said indifferently, "It's not even close to the upbringing of the An family. You've already treated your granddaughter like an actress."
Madam An was furious: "Yan Yiyi, don't go too far. Don't think that you can ignore everyone just because you are a princess."
As he said this, he sneered.
"That's right. Back then, you didn't even care about the deceased Princess Ping, let alone an old woman like me!"
Mrs. An San, who was standing by, saw that her mother-in-law was going too far and hurriedly stood up to stop her, but was pushed away by Mrs. An.
"Yan Yiyi, you are a jealous woman. What other woman is like you, tying a man down so tightly that he won't even take a concubine? A woman like you who doesn't follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues should be divorced."
When these words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
Daohua was disgusted by what Mrs. An said. How twisted must this person's mind be to want all women to share their husbands with other women.
After the falling out, Madam An threw the can down and said, "Yan Yiyi, you are a young man who has not been taught much, that's why you are so unruly. If I were Prince Weiyuan, I would have divorced this jealous woman long ago."
Just as he finished speaking, a voice with obvious anger came from outside the house.
"Who do you think you are? When did it become your turn as an old woman from the An family to take charge of the affairs of the Weiyuan Palace?"
The door curtain was lifted with a swish, and Guo Ruomei walked in with a sullen face.
Seeing the person coming, everyone's expression changed.
Guo Ruomei never attended banquets in the palace, and this was her first time appearing in public.
Guo Ruomei stood in front of Daohua, looking at Madam An with a sullen expression, "Madam An is so arrogant! Do you think that just because you have the power of Concubine An and the eldest prince, you can act lawless and make a scene in the Weiyuan Palace?"
"The Emperor personally ordered the marriage of Yan to Ye Yang. What qualifications do you have to make such comments?"
"I heard you yelling outside the courtyard. I didn't know you were the master of Weiyuan Palace!"
Facing Guo Ruomei, Mrs. An instinctively felt a little weak.
There is no way. Guo Ruomei is from the Duke Dingguo's Mansion, and her family background is much stronger than the An family.
Seeing that her mother-in-law came and suppressed Old Madam An, Daohua's mouth curled up. She didn't want to take any action herself, but just watched her mother-in-law deal with Old Madam An.
Guo Ruomei looked at Madam An coldly and said, "If you want to be your old feudal lord, go back to the An family. This is the Weiyuan Palace. It's not your turn to show off your power. Get out of here and never set foot in the palace again."
Old Madam An was furious. Thinking that Guo Ruomei had already divorced Prince Ping, she said sarcastically, "Guo, stop being so arrogant. Do you still think you're Prince Ping's consort?"
"Think about your current status. I'm too embarrassed to even speak it out. Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to tell me to get out?"
Before he could finish his words, Daohua angrily threw the teacup beside him to the ground with a "bang".
Daohua felt disgusted with Mrs. An just now and didn't take it to heart. But when she heard her say that about Guo Ruomei, Daohua became angry.
Daohua supported her belly and stood up, looking at Madam An with a cold face: "Who do you say she is? She is Xiao Yeyang's mother, my son's grandmother. Whoever she tells to get out of this Weiyuan Palace must get out!"
"Someone come here."
Maybe she was too emotional and affected the baby in her belly. Before Daohua could finish her words, the baby kicked her.
"Ouch!"
Everyone was shocked to see Daohua bending over and holding her stomach.
"Yiyi!"
"princess!"
Guo Ruomei and the maid beside her were so frightened that their faces changed drastically. They all came forward to help Daohua sit down.
"Princess, are you okay? Please don't disturb the fetus!"
After helping Daohua sit down, Guo Ruomei looked at Madam An with a cold expression: "Madam An, if anything happens to my daughter-in-law and my unborn grandchildren, I will never forgive you!"
Daohua was actually not seriously injured. The child didn't kick her hard, but the kick was too sudden, causing her to scream.
However, seeing everyone's worried eyes and Mrs. An staggering as if she was about to faint, Daohua decided to rub her belly and pretend to be weak.
Who doesn’t know how to act pitiful?
"Mom, my stomach hurts."
Guo Ruomei held Daohua's hand tightly and anxiously shouted at the maid, "What are you still standing there for? Go get a doctor." As she spoke, she noticed that Madam An was trying to pretend to faint and sneered,
"Stop pretending here and get out of here!"
Mrs. An San's heart trembled as she watched the servants from the palace running in a panic to call for help, and Guo Ruomei sweating profusely in anxiety.
If something really happened to Princess Xiao, the An family would offend Prince Siping's Mansion and Prince Weiyuan.
Looking at her mother-in-law who was obviously frightened, Mrs. An San was really nauseous: "Mother, let's leave first."
On the other side, Xiao Yeyang received the news and learned that Daohua had a miscarriage because of Madam An's anger. He shot a glare at Lord An like a knife: "Your An family is really doing well!" After that, he quickly went to the main courtyard.
