It's just that life is quiet, but it also smells of despair.

Ding Lan is only twenty-six or seventeen years old now, and if she is left to guard her child for the rest of her life, Ding Lan always feels that she has no end in sight and cannot see what the future will bring.

Seeing the rise of her natal family in recent years, Ding Lan was worried about the Xu family. She was not worried about the Xu family, but about her son Xu Fu.

Xu Fu is only four years old now, and his eldest brother Xu Jian has already been crowned the crown prince. He is ten years older. It is almost impossible for Xu Fu and Xu Jian to compete for the title. It is one thing for the age gap to be too large, but Xu Jian's

Although his uncle Zhu Ziheng was a civil servant, he was not someone to be trifled with. I heard that Jian was in the emperor's heart and that he might become a minister in the future, or even join the cabinet to worship the prime minister.

Both her eldest brother and sister-in-law had analyzed this with her. Zhu Ziheng suddenly went from the position of Minister of Civil Affairs to Jiangnan to take charge of weaving. There were too many things that could not be understood.

With Zhu Ziheng standing behind Xu Jian, Xu Jian's position as the heir apparent cannot be shaken. Now it seems that when Xu Jian's sister Xu Wanru came back, she was immediately summoned to the palace by Suzong. This Xu Wanru's future fortune may be extraordinary.

.If she gets married, Xu Jian will have another helping hand.

If this is the case, it is better to win over Xu Jian's heart. Even if he becomes a loyal and shun uncle, he will take good care of his younger brother. This is what Ding Lan is thinking at the moment. Moreover, in the past few years, Xu Jian and her, as well as the Ding family

They have a very good relationship. Although Ding Lan also wants his son to be proud and not look at others, but this is the case now, so he can only rely on the best direction.

After receiving the imperial edict in the morning, Ding Lan sent someone to send a message to his eldest brother Ding Xun's home, asking him to quickly send people to Xuan Mansion to find Xu Jian and go home. If Xu Wanru becomes prosperous, Xu Jian will benefit the most in the future.

.And Xu Jian has benefited, and she and Xu Fu can also benefit in succession.

However, while she was very busy, Xu Wanshu came crying, saying that Xu Wanshu didn't take her to play with her, which was bullying her because she was raised by her aunt.

Ding Lan has one head and two heads. Didn't Xu Wanshu go to Xiao's house to see Xiao Ying? Why is she crying and complaining about Xu Wanru's condition now?

Xu Wanshu never expected that under such circumstances, Deng Jie would actually go to Zhongshun Mansion to see Xu Wanru. Therefore, she was only thinking about her own pride, and without noticing, she told everything.

But as soon as she arrived at Jianshan Tower, she met the fourth young lady of the Deng family. On the way to Zhongshun Mansion, Deng Jie met Xu Wanshu's carriage. At that time, Xu Wanshu was in a very good mood, and she exchanged a few words and said she was going there.

The Xiao family is a guest.

A few years ago, because Xu Zheng doted on her and Xu Wanru got lost again, Xu Wanshu always felt that she was the eldest lady in the house. However, Ding Lan's daughter Xu Wanying also gradually grew up, and she displayed the appearance of a prince in front of her.

The dignified appearance of a daughter, Xu Wanshu

After seeing this, my teeth were itching with hatred. Now, the legitimate eldest lady Xu Wanru has returned home again, and she, a concubine, has become the object of ridicule by these people! Xu Wanshu burst into tears on the spot, and Xu Wanru had no choice but to tell Xiaolian,

Helped Xu Wanshu out.

After hearing about this, Xu Wanshu couldn't sit still. She resigned from Xiao Ying and wanted to go back to the palace to see what happened. Could it be that Xu Wanshu's matter had become a big deal and the palace sent someone to scold her and even issued a warning.

Got the imperial edict?

What a serious crime this was. Xu Wanshu was very happy about the misfortune. She ordered the carriages and horses to move quickly and rushed home to watch the fun.

When she entered Jianshan Tower and saw Xu Wanru, Deng Jie asked her, "I wonder how Miss Xiao Er is doing?"

Who would have known that as soon as Xu Wanshu entered the house, she heard about the imperial edict summoning Xu Wanru to the palace.

Who would have known that when Xu Wanshu's carriage and horses arrived at General Jingyuan's Mansion, they heard that a chamberlain from the palace had gone to Zhongshun Mansion to deliver the imperial edict. The people in General Jingyuan's Mansion didn't know exactly what they were conveying.

Before Xu Wanru could think of how to fight back, a girl in the room laughed, "Why don't I recognize Miss Xiao Er?"

Therefore, Xu Wanshu put Xiao Ying among her friends. Some people make friends who are evenly matched, some make friends with people who are desirable, but some people, like Xu Wanshu, only choose those who are not as good as her.

After being slapped in the face, he came to pretend to be a good sister to her. This face was really big.

Deng Jie was a little surprised that while she was having a banquet at home, her host went out to visit, but she didn't ask much. After all, ladies in the capital have clear barriers to concubine and concubine, and they don't interact with each other. At most, they meet each other and are polite to each other. That's all.

What they said was right, but when Xu Wanshu heard it, she felt it was very harsh. Of the three sisters in the family, she was the only one born to her aunt.

Although Xu Wanshu was extremely jealous, she also knew that she could not offend Xu Wanru now, so she hurried to Jianshan Tower to find Xu Wanru, trying to act like a good sister.

The other one laughed, "She was born to Aunt Ye from their third room. She rarely goes out, so of course you don't recognize her."

Xiao Ying was a concubine from the third room of General Jingyuan's residence. Although she was the second young lady in the family, she never had much confidence. She was a year or two older than Xu Wanshu, but she was timid in doing things and speaking, which gave Xu Wanshu a lot of sense of superiority. .

In fact, the matter is very simple. Xu Wanshu wanted to see Xu Wanru's joke, knowing that no one would come to the door today, so she deliberately took the girl out to visit Xiao Ying and talk bad things about Xu Wanru together.

Xu Wanru knew as soon as she heard it. How could such a narrow-minded person like Xu Wanshu come to make a scene for her? Sure enough, he deliberately slapped her in the face early in the morning to make her alone and embarrassed. When the time comes, the capital will say, No lady of the family was willing to come to Zhongshun Mansion, and even her younger sister deliberately avoided seeing her and secretly went to visit outside the mansion.

Xiaolian's hands and feet were rough and she said she was helping her, but it was clear that she grabbed Xu Wanshu and threw her out of Jianshan Tower. Xu Wanshu didn't know whether she felt sad or was hurt by the clumsy maid, so she had to slap Xiaolian. After a few moments, he took his maid and went back to Song Hongzhuang to cry.

When Song Hongzhuang heard this, she immediately took Xu Wanshu to Ding Lan to discuss the matter.

Ding Lan finally heard the twists and turns, and just sighed in her heart. Who told Xu Wanshu to slap her in the face? If she didn't mention the second young lady of the Xiao family, people wouldn't ask her like this. And then again, they didn't say anything. What? I just mentioned that Miss Xiao Er was born to Aunt Ye. It is a fact. There is something wrong.

Even if she was unhappy after hearing this, she couldn't offend the guests just because Xu Wanshu was unhappy. If someone really said something unpleasant, it would be reasonable for the mistress, Ding Lan, to come forward and say it, but it was unreasonable to make such a fuss. , Ding Lan is not stupid, so naturally he is unwilling.
