Chapter 40 Stepmother Difficulty 5
Wu Chun'e and Shen Yuxue both said, "Sister-in-law, you're welcome."

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you? I heard you got hit?" Wu Chun'e always speaks straightforwardly and speaks quickly.

"Well, I accidentally bumped it." Tang Xin smiled calmly, "You also know that I am weak. This bump will cost half my life."

"Actually, it's not a big deal, it just looks a little scary."

The more Tang Xin said this, the more the two of them felt that the matter might be more serious than what Tang Xin said.

No one in the back house was too clever. In fact, they all got the news about why Tang Xin was injured.

But it's the big house's business, and it really has nothing to do with them.

The two of them chatted for a while, then stood up to leave.

Just after leaving the door of Liuguangyuan, Wu Chun'e suddenly said "Ouch", "Brothers and sisters, look at my memory, I'm going to leave something at my sister-in-law's place. You go back first, don't wait for me, I'll go back and get it now."

Shen Yuxue looked at Wu Chun'e quietly, nodded to her gently, and left with the maid first.

Looking at Wu Chun'e who had left and returned, Tang Xin raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Is there anything else wrong with the second brother and sister?"

She didn't think Wu Chun'e had really left something behind.

Wu Chun'e smiled at Tang Xin, "Sister-in-law, I'm here to thank you for saving Sister Wei yesterday."

"When I went back yesterday, she told me everything. If my sister-in-law hadn't come to help, she might have been pushed under the rockery by the older girl."

"Just thinking about that scene makes my heart tremble."

The third girl, Xiao Wei, was the legitimate daughter of the second wife. She had always disliked the old lady's preference for Xiao Yue, so she made a few sarcastic remarks.

Xiao Yue's temperament could not tolerate others' ridicule, so he was naturally angered.

Although children at this time are very precocious, they have grown up being pampered. Wherever they can withstand the stimulation of words, they will naturally be easily irritated.

Wu Chun'e's face was apologetic, "I have already reprimanded my sister Wei. She should not say hurtful words to the older girl. She will learn to cultivate her moral character."

"In the end, it's my family, not my family. Please ask my sister-in-law to put in a good word."

After hearing Wu Chun'e's words, Tang Xin just smiled slightly and said, "I understand what you mean, second younger brother and sister, I am indeed feeling a little uncomfortable today, so I won't stay as a guest."

"It's not mine, sister-in-law, take good care of your injuries." Wu Chun'e's mouth stiffened slightly, and soon she showed a smile, stood up and said goodbye to Tang Xin.

Until she left, she didn't hear whether Tang Xin agreed or not.

After Tang Xin and others left, his eyes gradually turned cold.

This second-bedroom Wu Chun'e doesn't seem to be a good person.

She was afraid that the old lady would hold Xiao Wei accountable after the incident happened, so she wanted to start from her.

No matter how you say it, Tang Xin is the mistress of the big house and the nominal mother of Xiao Yue.

If the old lady had spoken to help when she was blaming him, the matter might have gone unsolved.

After all, even the mistress of the big house said it didn't matter. Could Xiao Yue be able to twist a child through?

The old lady had to give her some thin noodles no matter what.

This is what Wu Chun'e hates. She only wanted to prevent anything from happening to her daughter, but she never thought about Tang Xin's situation.

The original owner's position in the Yongding Marquis Mansion was very embarrassing. As a step-mother, he did not dare to discipline the two children left behind.

If the control is too severe, people will say, look, this stepmother is vicious. If the control is light, there will be no force at all.

The key is that these two children of Marquis Yongding don't take the original owner seriously at all.

They just thought she had come and taken the mother's place.It's a pity that I didn't notice the old lady's intention at all.

If you don't marry a step-wife, can you still let the eldest concubine be the head of the family?
Yes, Marquis Yongding also had two concubines, each of whom raised a child, a boy and a girl.

Thinking of this, Tang Xin felt tired. She wondered if she was too heartless and unloving in the previous world, which led to her having to help others support their wives in this life.

It’s really a silence in my heart that I can’t let go of.

But there was nothing we could do. Fortunately, Marquis Yongding was missing. Otherwise, would she have sacrificed herself for a mission?
Tang Xin quickly shook her head. It was too scary. She thought she couldn't do it with a group of women serving a man.

It was because of her emotional mysophobia that she divorced her ex-husband.

The matter of cheating was a cross in her heart.

If she really spoke for Xiao Wei as Wu Chun'e said, Xiao Yue would hate her even more, and even the old lady would be more dissatisfied with her.

Is there any reason not to help one's own people but to help outsiders?
This will undoubtedly make Tang Xin's position in Dafang even more embarrassing, but Wu Chun'e doesn't care. Anyway, it's not her who is in trouble. As for Tang Xin's trouble, that's Tang Xin's business.

If Tang Xin hadn't already passed through, maybe the original owner would really agree to Wu Chun'e. After all, she was in an awkward position in the eldest house and was eager to build a good relationship with the other sisters-in-law.

It's just a matter of saying a few words. Maybe the original owner won't think so much and just agree.

However, Tang Xin was not someone who jumped down knowing there was a trap. She turned over lazily and said, "Dongtao."

"Madam." Dong Tao quickly picked up the curtain and came in, saluting Tang Xin.

"Find someone to go to the eldest girl's courtyard and keep an eye on her. During the past two days when she has been recovering from her injuries, there is no one who has said anything in front of her."

Dong Tao was stunned for a moment and realized that Tang Xin was staring at her. She quickly agreed and turned around to go out to make arrangements.

This was also a kind of temptation for Tang Xin. The original owner was soft-tempered and couldn't control his slaves, so Dong Tao was more obedient.

She asked Dong Tao to do this now because she wanted to see Dong Tao's ability.

Tang Xin has always been good at knowing people and making good use of them.

Moreover, she wanted to clean up the slaves around Xiao Yue.

To say that the old lady has a certain responsibility for Xiao Yue's current temperament, the people around her have a greater responsibility.

If that evil slave were to stir things up in front of her, her outlook would be easily affected.

Moreover, Xiao Yue was only seven years old, so he had to rely on others to instill him in him wherever he could distinguish between good and evil.

Tang Xin lay in bed for three days before getting up early again to greet the old lady.

In ancient times, this was not good. There was no way to sleep until you wake up naturally, and you had to be aware of the morning and dusk.

When Tang Xin arrived at the old lady's place, both Wu Chun'e and Shen Yuxue arrived.

The three sisters-in-law met and chatted for a while, then a maid picked up the curtain and invited them in.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked for a while, and the old lady left Tang Xin behind.

Wu Chun'e and Shen Yuxue withdrew with winks, leaving Tang Xin alone.

The old lady took a leisurely sip of peach nectar before speaking, "Has your injury healed?"

"Yes, thank you for your mother's concern. My daughter-in-law is almost in good health." Tang Xin answered respectfully.

"That's good." The old lady nodded, "In that case, you can take over the middle child from the house."
