As soon as Mistress Xiao heard Mistress Duan's words, she knew that this must be Mrs. Duan's idea, otherwise Mistress Duan would never have the courage to say these words.

Anyone with a discerning eye could guess what Mrs. Duan meant. It turned out that the third room didn't seem to be close to the eldest room, and she thought that Xiao Liuhua was no longer helpful to her family, so it was naturally not worth retaining.

Moreover, Mr. Duan holds a position in the court, so to speak, he is an official, and the Duan family is an aristocratic family. The threshold is much higher than that of the third family who is engaged in business, so he dares to talk to the third family that he wants to divorce his wife.

But now that the eldest princess asked her only son and daughter-in-law to make a special trip for this matter, she felt that maybe she could move from the third bedroom to the eldest bedroom. Xiao Liuhua, who originally wanted to give up, naturally became a favorite again.

The Duan family was so capricious, arrogant at first and respectful at the end, that Mistress Xiao couldn't help but curl her lips slightly, and she looked down on the Duan family from the bottom of her heart.

However, before going out, the Third Madam asked Second Mistress Xiao to cooperate with Yuan Miaoyi, so Second Mistress Xiao did not speak, but turned to look at Yuan Miaoyi.

Yuan Miaoyi guessed last night that the Duan family would definitely change their minds after knowing that Xiao Yunyue and her were here, so she was not surprised at this time.

She gently pressed the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said with a soft smile: "So the Duan family also knows that the child that is missing in my cousin's belly is named Duan? It's just that after I came, let alone see the Duan family coming. I sent some ginseng tonics, but even the people who came to visit me didn’t see any of them.”

Having said that, before Second Grandma Duan could speak, Yuan Miaoyi looked at Second Grandma Xiao and said, "Or maybe it happened before, but I just didn't see it when I happened to be here these few days, or did I remember it wrong?"

Second Grandma Xiao looked at Second Grandma Duan, who was already a little restless, and then took over Yuan Miaoyi's words and said, "My brother and sister remembered correctly. It is true that no one from the Duan family has been seen since my sister-in-law returned home."

In fact, Mrs. Duan also sent someone to deliver some tonics and the like a few days ago. After all, the child who lost the child was a bloodline of the Duan family. At that time, Mrs. Duan still felt a little distressed.

It's just that the concierge of the third room threw all those things out after receiving the third lady's order. Mrs. Duan, who felt that she had been humiliated, never sent anything or sent anyone to visit her.

Second Mistress Duan didn't expect that Yuan Miaoyi would not give her any face when she came up, and directly broke through the last layer of cover between the two families. Although she comes from a famous family, she is still the second daughter-in-law, and her family has never taught her this.

In addition, the Duan family was indeed unreasonable in this matter, and Mistress Duan was speechless for a moment.

From the corner of her eye, Yuan Miaoyi saw a nun beside Mrs. Duan quietly retreating to the back hall, and guessed that it was because Mrs. Duan couldn't stand it any longer and was going to bring in reinforcements.

She didn't stop her at all. After all, it didn't matter what Grandma Duan said about the divorce. She still had to have the right person come before the rest of the play could continue.

Yuan Miaoyi looked at Second Grandma Duan and raised her eyebrows and said: "Second Grandma, have you ever mentioned the matter of divorcing your wife? You and I know it very well, so there is no need to cover it up with those extravagant words. It's just the matter of divorcing my wife that I can't say anything about." It’s impossible, it can only be peace and separation.”

As soon as she finished speaking, a weak-sounding female voice came from outside: "What's wrong with being reconciled? Mrs. Pingyang Hou, I would rather demolish a temple than ruin a marriage."

Upon hearing this voice, Mistress Duan immediately stood up and went to meet her, and helped a woman who looked about thirty years old, plump and graceful, but with a somewhat pale face, to the main seat.

After all, Mrs. Duan was a bit older than them. When Mistress Xiao saw her coming in, she originally wanted to get up. But she felt Yuan Miaoyi, who was sitting next to her, reach out and gently hold her hand, patting it gently before taking it back. Second Mistress Xiao knew that Yuan Miaoyi had made up her mind to shame Mrs. Duan today, so she also slowed down her body and did not stand up, but just sat up slightly straighter.

As expected, the mama who had just left went to reply to Mrs. Duan in the backyard, saying that Mrs. Pingyang Hou was quite powerful and that the Second Mistress was no match for her.

Mrs. Duan knew that it might not be so easy to fool her today, so she had no choice but to take action herself.

It's just that she put on a full show. Although she was just saying she was sick to the outside world, when she came out to meet people, she didn't forget to put on some powder to make herself look weaker.

After all, today's meeting is not that formal. Since it is a family meeting, if Yuan Miaoyi gives her some face, she will meet her as a junior.

However, after Mrs. Duan came in, the two people from the Xiao family who were sitting did not even move their bodies, and it seemed that they did not take her seriously at all.

It's just that Yuan Miaoyi is a county lady personally granted by the imperial court. She is a married woman outside the family. In terms of rank, she is only lower than the country lady. Mrs. Duan is just a county prince. If Yuan Miaoyi doesn't care that the two families are still relatives, there is no need to give her gifts.

Mrs. Duan was angry, but it was hard to get angry. After being helped by his daughter-in-law to sit down, he looked at Yuan Miaoyi calmly.

The Marquis of Pingyang has a very beautiful face, and the most eye-catching thing is her eyes, which are as black as paint and calm, making it difficult to see what is going on in her heart.

This is definitely not the look a young lady of this age would have.

Mrs. Duan originally thought that because of Second Mistress Xiao's status, the two families had not yet broken off their relationship, so there were some things she couldn't say directly. And Mrs. Pingyang Hou is about to get married and is still young. No matter how much she has eaten for so many more years than Yuan Miaoyi, how can she still be able to handle a young lady?

But Mrs. Duan also vaguely understood why her daughter-in-law was no longer a match for the awe-inspiring person who had just walked in and Yuan Miaoyi's temperament.

Mrs. Duan felt some subtle timidity in her heart, but she still had to say what she should say.

So she covered it with a handkerchief, coughed a few times and said: "It turned out that they were just a young couple. They wanted to fight each other for a moment, so they had an argument. At Chen'er's place, his father had already beaten him severely. I have also taught him a lesson. I have also sold that concubine. I think he will never dare to treat Liuhua badly in the future. After all, we are married couples, and there is always a friendship that no one else can match. How can we talk about divorce? Where’s Ben Heli?”

Mrs. Duan's words seemed to be an explanation to the Xiao family. After all, the concubine who once showed off her power has been sent away, and the culprit has been punished. After all, he is his biological son, so he can't force others to beat his biological son to death, right?

The Duan family has denied that this is not the case, and Mrs. Duan is not willing to divorce her. This is a step forward in trying to reconcile with the Xiao family.

But Yuan Miaoyi despised the Duan family in her heart, not to mention that the third lady had already stated yesterday that she would not let Xiao Liuhua return to the Duan family again, so Yuan Miaoyi said sternly.

"It's true that we have a deep friendship between husband and wife. It's just that Mr. Duan pushed his pregnant wife and caused her to have a miscarriage. Afterwards, he didn't even bother to apologize. In my opinion, it seems that he didn't take his wife seriously? "
