The middle minister of the Hou Mansion has been in the hands of Aunt Wen all these years, and every house and hospital has to look at her face to act.

In her early years, the old lady never thought of giving the power of running the family to Mr. Tang, but Mr. Tang was unwilling to marry her son.

Moreover, he was a coquettish person. Since he entered the government, he has been hiding in his yard claiming to be sick for three days without seeing anyone.

Mrs. Shi didn't dare to set rules for the Tang family casually.

She is a stepmother herself, and her natal family is somewhat respectable in Ganzhou, but it is not enough when she comes to the capital. How dare you blatantly rub your daughter-in-law to offend the Protectorate?

So even though she had changed her son to someone else over the years, she never regretted it. Sometimes I'm secretly proud of myself, so what if I'm the concubine of the Duke's mansion? Why don't I just let her do what I want?

But now the situation is different, the competition for the title is imminent; resetting her fate is the best way she can think of to break the situation.

If some unsighted people like Mother Chen casually spread the word at this juncture that their Hou Mansion is actually managed by an unworthy aunt, not only will the son's career be affected, but how will the Hou Mansion retain its reputation?

What's even more frightening is that his wife was killed by a doting concubine in a book of ginseng. The current emperor attaches great importance to etiquette...the consequences are disastrous.

Mrs. Shi's mind suddenly rang.

Seeing that her granddaughter, who was usually quiet and discreet, was doing things that were quite in line with her wishes and that everything was done to her heart, she thought, "Sister Xia, in a blink of an eye, you are fourteen years old. You will have hairpins next year." Later, it’s the time of marriage. Now, the middle prince of our Marquis Mansion will be handed over to you for the time being. How about you also learn to be a housekeeper?"

Aunt Wen couldn't believe what she heard, "Aunt, how old is Sister Xia? She's still a child. What kind of house can she take care of?"

An almost invisible trace of laxity escaped from the corners of Shi Anxia's lips.

Thinking about the coldness of the Imperial City, the former harem, and even the entire North Wing country, she once held it at her fingertips. What does a mere prince's mansion mean?

She looked down on the Hou Mansion, but she didn't want Aunt Wen to get an advantage. Besides, this is a gift she will give to her eldest aunt sooner or later, why not?

Then he stood up and gave the old lady a gentle blessing, "My granddaughter, it is better to obey my orders than to be respectful."

Mrs. Shi looked at her granddaughter who was not surprised by the favor and humiliation, and felt very comforted.

With such courage, are you afraid that you won't be able to find a good husband? The position of Princess Jin is currently vacant, but it is not unthinkable.

When Shi Anxia left He'an Courtyard, she saw Mother Chen kneeling on the ground and turned into a snowman. She sighed softly, "Mother Chen, why are you doing this? Isn't it good to kneel in Mingsongtang? You have to kneel in this ice and snow." . I feel sorry for your inconvenient legs and feet, but you don’t appreciate it.”

Mother Chen also regrets it. If I had known this, I might as well have gone to Mingsong Hall and knelt down honestly. At least there was a soft futon there, and there was no need to get wet in the snow.

She was filled with anger in her chest, but she didn't dare to show it on her face.

She was angry that the old lady was so heartless. When she got angry, she would reveal those shady things to see who would suffer!

Shi Anxia turned a blind eye to the dark light flashing in Chen's mother's eyes, and turned her peripheral vision to Nan Yan who was following beside her.

She saw Nan Yan walking past Mother Chen without any strange look.

No care, no sympathy whatsoever.

Shi Anxia felt relieved, presumably Chen Jinfu hadn't had time to talk sweetly at this time. She had to keep an eye on this silly girl, lest she lose her life by mistake.

Nan Yan was focused on their girl right now, and he was so happy at the moment, "The old lady is actually willing to hand over the power of the family to the girl!"

Shi Anxia smiled and said, "Silly girl, it's not that easy. I can't leave this family in my hands."

"The old lady said it just now." Nan Yan murmured, "Is it possible that I can still regret it?"

Mother Zheng smiled and said, "What you old lady said on impulse is not to be taken seriously. When she calms down, she will think about it again and again. Just watch."

Nan Yan pouted, "Oh. I think our girl is the most suitable person to run the business."

Everyone was amused by her, and a group of people headed towards Haitang Courtyard.

When Shi Anxia came to He'an Courtyard today, it seemed like he was chatting, but in fact, he smashed several big rocks on the calm lake. Some people can't hold their breath.

She didn't know that someone was staring at her back in a daze at this moment, with huge waves rolling in his eyes.

The man was wearing a black fox fur and had a slender figure. He stood motionless at the corner of the entrance to Haitang Courtyard.

This is Shi Anrou who is as quiet as a wisp of air. She dug her nails into the flesh of her palms to prevent herself from looking strange at all.

But her inner fear of Shi Anxia was engraved in her bones and deep in her soul.

Could it be that Shi Anxia was reborn like herself?

Or is it that Shi Anxia was already thoughtful at this time?

But even so, she couldn't possibly know that Shi Yunqi and Shi Yunxing had been exchanged. Otherwise, with her vengeful nature, how could she have let her mother go in her previous life?

If it is not rebirth, why is the situation in this life completely different?

She clearly remembered Shi Anxia in her previous life. It took a long time to recover after falling into the water.

Shi Anrou was filled with uneasiness.

Half a month ago, she came back from rebirth and remembered that her brother Shi Yunxing would soon die.

She immediately sent a letter to her mother, hoping that her mother could stop Shi Yunxing from committing suicide.

As long as Shi Yunxing survives, he will be her backer from now on, and even the Duke Protector's Palace will be her backing.

But for some unknown reason, the letter was delayed elsewhere. The letter was delivered to her mother the day after Shi Yunxing's death.

By then, it was too late to do anything.

When An Rou returned home last night, her mother asked her all night long, how did she know that Brother Xing would fall into the water and die?

She only said that she had a dream, and after dreaming about this scene, she wrote a letter and hurried back to Beijing.

As a result, Aunt Wen slapped her and complained why she didn't write more letters? He also complained about her life-saving work, why didn't he hurry up and send it to her as soon as possible?

After all, in Aunt Wen's heart, her daughter is not important at all, only her son is important.

When she was beaten by her mother, she thought viciously that it would be better for Shi Yunxing to die, since it was not a good thing anyway.

In fact, His Highness Prince Jin didn't send Shi Anrou back last night at all. He just sent Prince Jin's carriage to a distant cousin of the Shi family to do something, and she bumped into him.

She had met that cousin a few times, so she came up with a trick, saying that her carriage was broken down and she could ask her cousin to take her back home.

That cousin was a staff member of His Highness King Jin, and he went out of the city for errands last night. He agreed without thinking that he was in a hurry.

Shi Anrou thoughtfully refused to let her cousin get out of the car to see her off, which gave the concierge the illusion that His Highness the King of Jin was personally sending her home.

She wanted to let Mrs. Shi and her mother know that she was favored by His Highness Prince Jin, so that she would not have to go to Prince Jin's palace as a favored concubine like she did in her previous life.

It sounds like a concubine, but in fact she is just a bed-warming girl.

Otherwise, how could His Highness Prince Jin not even give her a position when he became the Rongguang Emperor, leaving her unable to hold her head high for the rest of her life, and any palace maid could manipulate her.

She must be a master in this life, and marry His Highness the King of Jin in a glorious manner.
