Logically speaking, such a family background was not worthy of the Wang family, even if second brother was a businessman and had no prominent status.
There were two reasons for this. Before Wang zhenwen rose to power, he had been at his lowest point several times. One time, he was framed by a political enemy and was imprisoned.
Zhao Yurong’s father had been in charge of the Supreme Court and had a good relationship with Wang zhenwen. He had spent a lot of money to bribe his way through and finally pulled through.
His sister-in-law, li xianghan’s father, had also given Wang zhenwen a similar favor.
Thus, after Wang zhenwen made a name for himself, his two sisters-in-law married into the Wang family.
His sister-in-law, li xianghan, said,
“Simu, did the matriarch of the Xu family set any rules for you when you went to the Xu residence last time?”
Wang simu shook her head.
Her second sister-in-law, Zhao Yurong, glanced at her and smiled, ”
“I think there is. Didn’t you say that the Xu family’s matriarch is a very skilled person? Simu, don’t be embarrassed to say this. When a new daughter-in-law comes in, the mother-in-law has to set the rules.
“When my sister-in-law and I entered the family, we were also beaten by my mother-in-law. However, you’re different from us. You’re the young lady of the Wang family, and if you marry Xu Erlang in the future, you’ll be marrying a man of lower status.
“Xu Erlang has to rely on our Wang family to rise to the top. In the future, when you go to the Xu family, you can simply act like a tyrant. This time, we have to set some rules for miss Xu and let her know the difference between the Xu family and the Wang family.”
It’s still not certain who’s the one making the rules, and you guys want to arm-wrestle with that girl Xu lingyue … Wang simu muttered in her heart and shook her head.
“There’s no need for that. Little sister lingyue is very intelligent. There’s no need to provoke her.”
His sister-in-law, li xianghan, showed a smile full of superiority as if she had been through it.
“Simu has no experience. Before marriage, the two families” women interact with each other. Do you think that mother-in-law doesn’t have such thoughts?
“Then whatever that young lady of the Xu clan has seen and heard here today, I will bring it back and tell the Xu clan’s matriarch. Let’s give her a little warning to the Xu family’s matriarch not to bully you in the future.”
Since ancient times, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could be summarized with the words “open and secret strife.” They were fighting for the power of the housekeeper.
The more wealthy a family was, the more intense the struggle for financial and domestic power would be.
“This … Isn’t good ..
Wang si mu resisted the urge to raise the corner of her mouth and said with a frown.
“Don’t worry, we know what to do,” the eldest sister-in-law said with a smile.
“Alright, since it’s a rule, we’ll do as you say,” Wang simu said helplessly.
As she spoke, she picked up the teacup and made a drinking posture, covering the slightly upturned corners of her mouth.
In a marriage between two families, regardless of the relationship between the man and the woman, the “game” between the families would still exist.
The mother-in-law would set rules for the future daughter-in-law, and the future daughter-in-law’s family would show enough wealth to ” warn ” the husband’s family to treat their daughter well.
It was only human nature.
Wang simu was relieved to see her two sisters-in -law being so enthusiastic.
The last time she was a guest at the Xu family, Xu lingyue, that wretched girl, had caused a lot of trouble. She did the first thing, and Wang simu did the fifteenth.
As they were talking, a pair of sisters walked in from outside the hall. The younger sister’s head was not even as tall as the older sister’s waist, and she was being held by her little hand. It was a somewhat silly little girl.
As for the older sister, her appearance made the eyes of the two sisters-in-law light up. She was wearing a brocade and fur cloak, sheepskin boots, and her neatly trimmed bangs made her small face look beautiful and lovely.
She gave off the feeling of a weak, gentle, and pretty daughter from a humble family.
The moment they saw Xu lingyue, the two sisters-in-law of the Wang family knew that they had her in the palm of their hands. This kind of girl from a small family who had been raised in the boudoir and had not seen much of the world, they were afraid that if they showed even the slightest displeasure, she would be in fear and at a loss.
If he asked a little tricky question, he would feel embarrassed and his two little hands would not be able to place.
It was really boring to bully such a little girl.
As for the innocent child, he was naturally ignored by the two sisters-in-law.
“Little sister lingyue is here.”
Wang simu stood up to welcome him and introduced, “This is my eldest sister-in-law and this is my second sister-in-law. I’ll call you whatever I want, little sister lingyue.”
“Greetings, sisters-in-law,” Xu lingyue said in a soft voice.
“You’re such a pretty girl. I wonder which family’s young master will marry our little sister lingyue in the future,” li xianghan, the sister-in-law, smiled.
Xu lingyue smiled reservedly, lowered her head and said, “”Lingying, greet your sister-in-law.”
Xu Ling raised his head and frowned.”Why is she also my sister-in-law? Are they also going to marry second brother?”
The four women’s faces froze.
Second sister-in-law, Zhao Yurong, immediately looked at Xu lingyue. Seeing that her face was red and that she had forgotten to scold her sister, she could only laugh dryly.
“Children’s words carry no harm, children’s words carry no harm.”
Wang simu glanced at Xu lingyue and smiled without changing his expression.
“Mother should be up by now, let’s go pay our respects to her.”
He was going to take the Xu sisters to see the old Madam.
Thus, led by Wang simu, the group walked deeper into the Wang Residence, through the corridors and courtyards, and came to a large house.
There were two soft couches in the room, covered with soft and warm wool blankets. On the couches were small square tables, on which were dried fruits, dried meat, candied fruits, cakes, and other food.
Wang zhenwen’s first wife, Madam Wang, was sitting on the soft couch on the left.
Madam Wang was over fifty years old, but she maintained herself very well. She was neither fat nor thin, her Qi was ruddy, and the fine crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes added to the charm accumulated over time.
“Mother!”
“Granny!”
“Old Madam!”
The girls saluted one after another. Only Xu lingying was a little reserved. She was not used to this kind of atmosphere.
The little boy had been living in a carefree environment since he was young, and he wasn’t bound by many rules..
