My Stepmother is Soft and Charming

The fifth old man took a look at the tea cup. He thought it was a good thing before, but now he looks down on it.

He was so satisfied, as if he had already established a relationship with Prince Min's Mansion, that he couldn't even remember who he was.

So he said to Shang Yukuan rather arrogantly.

"Goudan'er, my fifth uncle came here today to tell you something. The old prince of the Min Palace has fallen in love with our seventh mother and said that he wants to take her as his concubine. Are you here? Why don't you just find out what day and time it is and just go to their door to settle the matter with them?"

Shang Yukuan was confused after what he said.

Mrs. Wei next to her frowned fiercely after hearing this.

Prince Min's Mansion?

How come they suddenly fell in love with Shang Qiniang, who has been at home all this time?

She didn't want to believe it.

But looking at what the fifth old man said, he was determined, so he asked tentatively.

"Is it possible that Fifth Uncle was drunk and talking nonsense? The old prince of Min Palace has fallen in love with Qiniang? And he wants to take her as his concubine? Why don't you and I know any news?"

The Fifth Old Master does not like Mrs. Wei at all at this moment. Anyone who wants to prevent him from getting the 10,000 taels of bride price should get out of here.

Therefore, his tone was no longer as polite as before, and his mouth returned to its original nature.

He said maliciously and mockingly to Mrs. Wei.

"What? Your girl can climb into King Fu's bed, why don't we have a decent person from our fifth room? Who are you looking down on?"

"you……"

Mrs. Wei's face suddenly turned ugly when she was suddenly scolded by the Fifth Old Master.

Auntie's affairs have always been a worry for her. She didn't expect that Auntie's idea was so powerful at first, and she would do it like this regardless of her reputation.

By the time she found out, she had already hooked up with King Fu.

What can she do?

After all, it’s the child that came out of your belly, so you can’t just ignore it.

Fortunately, things took a turn for the better with King Fu, and this allowed them and their daughter to escape. Otherwise, they would still be living a miserable life in Zhuangzi now.

Therefore, this matter is an unspeakable taboo in Mrs. Wei's heart.

Today, the fifth old man said it as a joke, and Mrs. Wei was immediately unhappy.

Mrs. Wei is also a smart person, and she always shows weakness in front of Shang Yukuan.

Seeing this scene, it was natural to cry with scarlet eyes.

So, seeing her with tears in her eyes, she said to the Fifth Old Master.

"What are you doing, Uncle Fifth? Isn't this stabbing someone's heart with a knife? How long has it been since my aunt's incident happened? People outside said she would just let it go. Are we going to use this matter to insult her?"

"She took the wrong path, but she also brought back a powerful husband for the family. Without her help these years, the Duke's Mansion would not have been so smooth. You are eating and drinking outside in the name of the Duke's Mansion. When you are having fun, why don’t you think about who is taking care of the aftermath for you?”

"Are you going to tear your face apart to speak?"

He was crying and wiping away tears while talking, which made the fifth old man a little unhappy.

What he hated most was the sound of a woman crying. Just as he was about to burst into tears, he was stopped by Shang Siye and Shang Wulang.

His eyes signaled him not to speak anymore, and instead it was their father and son who comforted him.

The one who spoke was Fourth Master Shang. He was somewhat tougher among his cousins, so his words were a little more convincing.

"Sister-in-law has misunderstood my father. He speaks so straightforwardly. You know that, don't you? Don't argue with him. What we are talking about is a good thing. When you cry, it seems like we are forcing someone else, right?" "

"That's right, my eldest aunt is kind-hearted, and my eldest sister is also capable. When I was making friends with friends outside these years, whoever heard that I had a cousin named Princess Fu wouldn't look at her twice, right?"

The father and son would serve Mrs. Wei honey. After hearing this, Mrs. Wei's crying finally stopped a lot.

But when I wiped my tears in the dark, there was still a flash of disgust for the Fifth Old Master.

Seeing this, Shang Yukuan also came out to smooth things over and said.

"It's a good thing that Qiniang can find a good home, but I haven't figured out what exactly is going on. How about my fourth cousin explain it to me."

"OK."

Then Shang Goro opened his mouth and told everything he heard.

At this point, Shang Yukuan and Mrs. Wei finally understood.

The feeling is that after knowing the news, he rushed to send Qiniang to the prince's house, but because Wu Fang didn't have many connections, he "begged" them to come here.

Asking Shang Yukuan to use the dignity of the Duke's Palace to set up Shang Qiniang, I have to say that these five houses are really good at planning.

Just a bit shameless.

But when I think about those days and things in the past, few people in Wufang want to show their face.

Mrs. Wei fell silent. She was obviously here to ask for help, yet she was so bossy.

She is not a living Bodhisattva, yet she is rushing to be a matchmaker for her niece who is several generations apart.

Besides, if being a matchmaker can really help the family, she might be able to put some thought into it.

The fifth house looks like a wolf at first glance. If Qiniang gets involved, you don't know how much trouble it will cause.

At the moment, she has no time to pay attention to the people in Wufang, so naturally she is not willing to help.

She was silent. Shang Yukuan was a person without any opinions.

So he said with some embarrassment.

"Fourth brother, it's not that I don't help with this matter, it's that I have little contact with the Min Palace. You also know that I only have a casual position in the court. If you really want to talk about it, it is not as important as Liu Lang."

"Even if I am determined to come to Qiniang's house to help her, I don't think anyone will pay attention to me."

What he said was true, but it fell into the ears of the Fifth Old Master as a shirk.

He immediately slapped the table and jumped up.

"Hey, is this plot now on the table? I don't want to think about your father escaping to fight, who gave you food and drink, and kept you at home. What, now it is so powerful that they don't recognize our poor family. Are you a relative? How about I go to the ancestral hall, kneel down and cry under your father’s memorial tablet, and ask him to see how his good son treated his uncle?"

The threatening tone could not be more obvious, and Mrs. Wei's face darkened again and again.

After all these years, I still don’t feel embarrassed about the three melons and two dates. It’s really a joke.

The little bit of friendship in the past has been returned long ago, otherwise they wouldn't have been left in the Duke's mansion for so many years.

But whenever something happened, he would come up with these words and say them here and there. His mouth didn't hurt when he said it, and Mrs. Wei's ears felt like calluses.

If it were in the past, she might still help her master and say no.
