The Duke’s wife is beautiful but has a dark heart

Chapter 357 Hidden Opportunities
When the couple returned home, Xiao Xiang said: "Madam said that the Fifth Master and you are coming back, so please go to the back. The Fang family is our guest today!"

"I know! Wash your face first... I'm more tired than usual these two days." Wen Yu was not in a hurry.

Several girls surrounded her, washing her face and putting on make-up, changing her clothes, and finally arranging her hair. Qi Wu quickly washed his face and changed his clothes, but he was not in a hurry. He sat calmly and watched Wen Yu fuss.

After cleaning up, the two of them went to the back hand in hand.

There was already laughter in the back hall.

The ones here today are the family of Fang Jiajun, Qihou’s friends. The two of them have been together since childhood and have worked together for many years, so they have a very good relationship.

His wife, Mrs. Fang, is older than Mr. Tan and is upright and serious.

I remember that at the beginning, the Marquis of Qi lost his wife and wanted to remarry the Tan family. Mrs. Fang strongly disagreed, which meant she had no objection.

But she really doesn’t give Tan’s face!

Later, Mr. Tan became friends with Mrs. Fang for several years. Old Mrs. Fang said unpleasant words and gave an ugly look, but Mr. Tan could not hold any grudge against her.

Moreover, Mrs. Fang recognized Tan's character after seeing how well Tan brought Qi Youyi. He completely let go of his prejudices and became friendly with her.

This friendship is a real deal.

Outside, if people want to gossip about Tan, Mrs. Fang will take the initiative to defend her and quarrel with others!

With her strong help and guidance, the Tan family gained a foothold in the capital and it became a lot smoother.

Mrs. Fang's hair is almost white, she is dressed properly and has a serious expression. Sitting next to her were her two daughters-in-law, and several granddaughters-in-law and granddaughters were standing behind her.

Mrs. Tan was complaining to her, "Juniors have their own way of living. You are old enough, and the only thing you can't do is follow the rules! The whole capital knows that you..."

But Mrs. Fang said: "There is no rule without rules! You say I am strict, but I think you are lax! From the beginning, everyone is used to it. If you make a sudden request, people will think they have made a mistake and are being punished. !”

Mrs. Tan smiled: "You! Everything makes sense! You are very energetic. If I have to live up to your standards, I will have to lie down exhausted!"

Mrs. Fang smiled with a lot of trouble on her face, "If you worry less, you will not grow old! No wonder, although I am only six years older than you, we look like two generations."

"No way? You have a straight figure, but I can't compare to it. My waist has to be kneaded by them every day. If you accidentally slip it, it will hurt so much that you can't get out of bed for several days."

Mrs. Qi was sitting in the crowd, laughing to herself: She was injured doing heavy work when she was a child. When I first entered the house, she mentioned this. Over the years, I haven’t listened to her anymore...

The girl came in and reported: "Old lady, Fifth Master and Fifth Grandma are back!"

Mrs. Tan smiled and said to the old lady, "Look, the busy people are back!"

Wen Yu and Qi Wu came in and saluted the old lady, "Grandma, Mrs. Fang! Madam..."

When Mrs. Fang looked at Qi Wu, her heart started to tumble.

It turns out that she has a little granddaughter whom she loves very much, who is about the same age as Qi Wu. He once wanted to marry the Qi family and marry her to Qi Wu.

Although Qi Wu was not well-known in the capital when he was young, she had certainly seen him due to the relationship between the Fang family and the Qi family.

Like a beauty!
I really like it, but at the same time I am hesitant: it looks too good!
Ten times better than my own granddaughter!
It’s definitely not a good thing for a man to look too good! Therefore, I did not take the initiative to promote this matter. But I couldn't let it go, and I didn't know when it came out.

What a thief Tan is, it was immediately clear that she would definitely not want to do it. Although the Fang family's family background is not as good as that of the Qi family, this old woman is strong and upright. She got her granddaughter into the house, and with her supporting her... how can I be allowed to talk too much?
What did I say and do, and she wasn't the first to jump out? Then hasn't it been a waste of time maintaining it all these years?
So, pretend to be stupid. Steer the subject calmly.

Mrs. Fang has never played tricks on her before. This matter has not made any progress!

In fact, at that time, if Mrs. Fang had directly approached Mrs. Qi, maybe this matter would have happened!

Although the girl looks ordinary, she has a really good temperament. With the Fang family behind him, Qi Wu couldn't suffer any loss.

It's a pity that the two old ladies had a good personal relationship, so the news didn't reach her.

Later, Mrs. Qi was worried about Tan's plot and went to the south.

Mrs. Tan began to complain to Mrs. Fang again, bringing out all her helplessness. Mrs. Fang felt the same way and couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with Mrs. Qi.

When Qi Wu returned to the capital to make a splash, Mrs. Fang felt like she was fried. She regretted that she had not insisted on it, and she should have asked her old man to tell Qi Hou.

Now, her granddaughter has also married and lives a normal life with her son-in-law.

She also heard that Qi Wu's wife, this Wen, was out and about all day. Her business was big and she made a lot of money! But for a family like the Qi family, why would they need her to do this?
Thinking of the bitter smile and helplessness on Mr. Tan’s lips...

Seeing the flamboyant looks of Qi Wu and Wen Yu, their tone couldn't help but be cold: "Are you going to pay New Year greetings? At this time, the host didn't even leave any food!"

Wen Yu knew in her heart that she must have been instigated by Mrs. Tan, and was too lazy to argue with her. "To answer the old lady's question, my husband took Wen Yu to her aunt's house. When Wen Yu was a child, she was often taken care of by her aunt! When she grew up, her aunt also took care of her. I am accustomed to relying on Wen Yu. I want to discuss everything with Wen Yu. It has become a habit to come to you every time. I know you are coming today, so I only take a quick look and come back to serve you! "

Mrs. Fang had nothing to say about her flexible attitude. Mrs. Tan pointed at Wen Yu and smiled: "Did you see that? I am the fifth grandson's daughter-in-law! I don't know whether it is because she was born so that I love her so much, or because she is always flawless in everything she does. No matter what happens, I can't bear to accuse her. of!"

Wen Yu smiled sweetly: "It must be said that grandma, you are kind to the younger generation and you are never picky!"

Mrs. Fang nodded: "Your grandmother was orphaned when she was young, her family was poor, and she suffered a lot. Therefore, she was particularly considerate of her children and grandchildren. But you should also treat these as good intentions, the rules you should have, and the filial piety you should fulfill. , it should be a bit heavier than others!”

"Mrs. Fang, that's what you taught me! My natal grandmother often said: As soon as she saw her, she knew that she had suffered a lot when she was young. Let us listen to her words and take care of her in every way!"

Now that Mr. Tan is today, how can he still be willing to mention the hardships he suffered back then?

This time: What? Old thief Wen can see that I am suffering? Are those your dog eyes?

Mrs. Fang nodded: "Although your grandmother was a farmer and businessman, she had a lot of experience. She raised your father extremely well! As for you, you were born well and you speak well. However, you still need to be less busy with chores outside. . It would be better if you get more training in front of your grandmother!"

Both Wen Yu and Tan felt that this old lady was a little confused...

After a while, the meal was served. Wen Yu sat next to Zhang Moqing, "Can you go to the princess's house tomorrow?"

Zhang Moqing smiled and said: "Of course! It's not like climbing a mountain! There is a lot of good singing and dancing in the princess' place. It must be fun! Ayu, what are you busy with this year? Why are you always away?"

"I went to the Song family again today. There are a lot of things. Zhuzhu asked me to go to the Wen family, but I didn't make time. Tomorrow, I will pick her up first and then go to the princess's house. Oh, I haven't gone to the Zhang family yet. New Year greetings! I wonder if Aunt Zhang has taken issue with it?
Zhang Moqing smiled ghostly: "When I went home that day, my mother said that my eldest aunt received a gift from you! She scolded you with a smile: "You always spend money randomly! So, the gift is heavy enough, and it doesn't matter if people don't receive it!"

"Tch! Aunt Zhang is not like what you said!" Wen Yu rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "I haven't seen Jiang Qing and Jin Qing for several days. You can always see them when the shop is open. "

At this time, the girl was holding a plate with a glass of fruit wine and a cup of fruit tea. "Fifth Grandma, this is 20-year-old Osmanthus Aged Wine."

But Wen Yu said, "I won't drink today! I'm tired lately. I'm afraid I'll doze off after drinking."

With that said, she was going to get the cup of tea. The girl took advantage of the situation and hid for a moment. Before Wen Yu could respond, the girl said, "Then I'll go get two more cups of tea."

Wen Yu was startled, but Zhang Moqing pulled her and said, "Do you know that your grandmother wants to marry Wen Su to Jiang Qing?"

"Ah? Is this the case?" Wen Yu came back to his senses.

"When I came home, my mother mentioned it."

"Let's not talk about anything else, how do the ages of two people match up?" Wen Yu was unhappy.

Zhang Moqing smiled: "Your grandmother may want to get married. But..."

Wen Yu sneered and said, "She is becoming more and more confident!"

She secretly thought that she really wanted to get married, but Wen Jiao and Brother Jiang Qing were barely the same age. It's a pity that she is still pointing at Wen Jiao and climbing up. The Wen Wan below is a concubine, and she would be too embarrassed to open her mouth even if she were beaten to death. The next one is Wen Su... It is said that Wen Jing and Wen Su are within two days of each other, but the old lady will definitely not take advantage of Wen Jing.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. What did Mrs. Wen think of Brother Jiang Qing? The meat on her plate?
"Hmph! All the good things in the world should be hers! Tomorrow I have to tell Aunt Zhang that the Wen family has given me a good bamboo shoot. If you want to find a wife for Brother Jiang Qing, go to another house!"

Zhang Moqing smiled: "Don't be ashamed!"

At this time, the girl brought several more cups of fruit tea, "Grandma, this is jasmine fruit tea..."

Wen Yu looked at her and asked, "What kind of tea was that just now?" His tone was stern.

"Go back to Fifth Grandma, what I just had was apple tea."

"I like apple tea. I was just about to bring you a cup. Why are you leaving?"

The girl's smile remained unchanged, "I've already gone around in a circle, I'm afraid it's a little cold. If you like apple tea, can I bring you a cup of hot tea?"

Wen Yu picked up a cup of jasmine tea and smiled: "Forget it. No matter how hot it is, it won't be the same cup just now, right?"

"Grandma Wu was joking." The girl seemed to have heard something funny and laughed happily.

After the girl left, Wen Yu said to Zhang Moqing: "Be careful about what you eat and drink, especially in the old lady's house. Don't use things indiscriminately."

Zhang Moqing was also holding a cup, his smile unchanged: "What, do you feel something is wrong?"

"Be careful and don't make any mistakes. Xu Minghui made several troubles before, and I felt something was wrong."

"it is good."

"And your Aunt Liu, she looks smart but is actually stupid. Especially since she wants you to have the eldest grandson of the Qi family, don't be stupid and be taken advantage of!"

Wen Yu was just a casual comment, but he didn't expect that it would turn out to be a prophecy in the future.

There is so much sand in Beijing.

The next chapter will be late, I’ve been really struggling lately.
