Chapter 163: The Cannon Fodder Sister Who Was Married Instead in Ancient Chinese Literature 43
Yun Xi secretly resented it in her heart. Teaching two people is teaching, and teaching three people is also teaching. It's just an extra pair of ears listening. She was clearly refusing.
Yunxi didn't know what to say, so he could only change the way he put it.
"Mother, I was inconsiderate and didn't take your health into consideration. I was also thinking that Hui'er would marry into the Marquis' Mansion in the spring after the New Year, after all, earlier than Shushu. Shushu's marriage hasn't been settled yet, so I don't think it's that urgent. Besides, if Hui'er goes to the Marquis' Mansion, it will represent the reputation of our Prime Minister's Mansion. If this gets out, he won't even be able to hire a housekeeper. Isn't it a bit..."
Yunxi said embarrassedly.
Only then did Old Mrs. Jiang look up at her eloquent daughter-in-law with a serious look in her eyes.
"Yun, Hui'er got married earlier than Shu'er. Do you remember the order of seniority? Don't pretend in front of me. Everyone in the mansion knows that the one in power is the Marquis's concubine Hua. Hui'er will be taught by her. Besides, didn't my son mention that the two girls should learn to be housekeepers? What were you doing at that time?"
Yunxi blushed at what she said. She just wanted to push Jiang Yueshu out at that time, but she never thought that Jiang's father would actually let Jiang Yueshu learn how to be a housekeeper from the old lady.
In her opinion, it doesn't matter whether they learn or not, after all, Hui'er will have someone to teach him when he arrives at the Marquis' Mansion. But seeing that the two of them are learning more and more every day, she becomes jealous and anxious.
"Anyway, my energy is limited and I can't teach so many people. If you want to teach, go teach it yourself!"
As soon as Mrs. Jiang finished her words, she ordered the maid to chase the people away.
Yunxi had to be driven out of the yard in embarrassment, and immediately met Jiang Xinghui, who was waiting outside anxiously and full of expectation.
"How is it going? Mother? Did grandma agree?"
Yunxi shook his head hesitantly. Jiang Xinghui was stunned for a moment, and then felt extremely disappointed.
Why? They were obviously her granddaughters, so why would she rather teach that idiot Jiang Yueshu than teach her, who was smart and was about to become the wife of the Crown Prince?
"How could grandma do this...?" Jiang Xinghui was angry.
Seeing this, Yun Xi quickly covered Jiang Xinghui's mouth and looked around.
Seeing that there was no one around, she spoke sternly, "Hui'er, be careful with your words!"
She pulled Jiang Xinghui directly back to her own courtyard, and after sending the maid away, she spoke earnestly.
"No matter what, she is your grandmother! No matter how aggrieved you are, you must not show it easily. There are many people in the mansion and there are many eyes. If someone with ulterior motives finds out and spreads it, not only will your grandmother be disappointed in you, but it may also damage your reputation. You are going to marry into the mansion, it's not like staying at home."
Jiang Xinghui listened to his mother's words irritably, and still felt upset.
Yunxi also noticed it, so she could only continue speaking.
"If you are in a bad mood, you can vent it in your own room, but you must not let anyone with ulterior motives spread it. Although the Marquis's Mansion is good, everything in the mansion is now managed by Concubine Hua in the Marquis's Mansion. I don't know why the Marquis's wife doesn't take care of the household? Concubine Hua is quite nice to the prince, but she has her own biological children after all. Who knows what she thinks in her heart? You must never do this again!"
This was the first time that Jiang Xinghui learned about the situation in the Marquis' Mansion. Since it was related to her future happiness, she naturally calmed down her anger and listened nervously.
After listening to it, his brows were tightly furrowed.
"This mansion is so weird! They obviously have a mistress, so why do they let a concubine run the household?"
Yunxi shook her head, she didn’t know either.
"Whatever the reason, it's always better to be careful."
