Chapter 14 Sisters' Negotiation

"This... this is not made by my Yu'er!" The fifth wife widened her eyes and looked up.

Old Mrs. Ren had a clear look of disappointment in her eyes: "Did she do it? She admitted it herself. What else do you defend her?"

"Grandma, it's really not me!" Ren Yaoyu said with tears on her face and felt aggrieved.

Old Mrs. Ren did not look at her, and told Madam Gui with a stern face: "Please lock Miss Eighth to the ancestral hall. She is so disrespectful and vicious. What's the point?"

The fifth wife was so scared that she knelt down immediately and begged: "Mom, the sky is so cold, there is not even a warm stove in the ancestral hall. What should I do if Yu'er is frozen and sick?"

"I asked her to think about her mistakes! I didn't let her enjoy her happiness!" Old Mrs. Ren was unmoved.

The fifth wife wiped her tears: "Mom, my grandmother was so worried that she couldn't eat or sleep when she was sick last time. In the end, she personally sent the nanny around her to see her before she felt relieved. The wife didn't feel sorry for her suffering, but she just didn't want her elders to worry about her."

The fifth wife’s grandmother is the old lady Ren’s aunt. Every time the fifth wife brings out this grandmother, it will play a role.

Sure enough, although Old Mrs. Ren's face was still bad, she frowned and said nothing.

Seeing this, Ren Yaohua's mouth felt a sarcastic sneer, and he was about to say a few words.

Ren Yaoqi, who was standing next to her, pulled her clothes from behind quickly with quick eyes and hands.

Ren Yaohua turned his head in anger, and Ren Yaoqi turned his eyes at her and asked her to be calm.

Originally, Ren Yaohua didn't want to pay attention to her, but saw the eldest lady suddenly and softly said: "The fifth brother and sister-in-law are inappropriate. This is well known to Mrs. Lin love her great-granddaughter, but our old lady has always been very fond of her younger generations. Today, the punishment of Yu'er is just out of the elders' painstaking efforts to make their children successful, rather than deliberately making things difficult for them."

Old Mrs. Ren's face looked a little better: "It's still the eldest daughter-in-law who has a clear mind."

The fifth wife glanced at the eldest wife. Although the Ren family was the head of the eldest wife, with the old lady's favor, she also took over several real powers in the mansion. The eldest wife is a good-natured and always gives in to her. She always plays a role that is mixed when encountering any problems.

But for some reason today, I didn't speak for her.

The fifth wife was thinking that the eldest wife had already walked to her side quickly and whispered: "The old lady is angry, so you can just accept it first. Ask her love to wait until her anger is gone before it can be done. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a mistake?"

Although she spoke in a low voice, she could hear it. She persuaded the fifth wife in public, but seemed to be biased towards her, but she did not make the old woman disgusted with her behavior.

The fifth wife knew that what she said made sense, so she reluctantly suppressed her words, thinking about waiting for another way.

Madam Gui asked the maid to help Ren Yaoyu go out with tears in the rain.

Because old lady Ren was in a bad mood, everyone stepped down for the time being.

When Ren Yaoqi brought his maids back to Ziweiyuan, he saw Ren Yaohua standing under the eaves of the east wing, as if looking at her, or as if admiring the ice hooks hanging upside down on the pomegranate tree in front of the door.

Ren Yaoqi paused and did not walk towards the corridor connecting the west wing, but turned to the direction of the west wing.

When she was about to walk to Ren Yaohua, Ren Yaohua turned her head and looked at her coldly: "Come in." As she said that, she turned around and went into her room.

Ren Yaohua followed her in. The two maids behind her looked at each other and wanted to keep up, but they asked Ren Yaohua's maid Xiangqin to stop him.

"Did our third lady let you in?" Xiangqin looked at them with a squint eyes, full of momentum.

The third lady's amazing maids in Ziweiyuan were all aware of. The two maids shrank their necks and stood in the corridor without saying a word.

Ren Yaohua's house is arranged similar to that of Ren Yaoqi, but Ren Yaoqi rarely comes here, so he is still very unfamiliar.

Ren Yaohua walked straight to his inner room and sat on the kang, not entertaining Ren Yaoqi, but just looked at her with an scrutiny look.

Ren Yaoqi didn't care about her gaze and sat on the other side of the kang.

"Do you have anyone in the outer courtyard?" Ren Yaoqi knew that Ren Yaohua was waiting for her to explain, but she did not tell the matter straight to the point, but instead asked an irrelevant question first.

Ren Yaohua narrowed her eyes slightly and her eyes were sharp: "What does it mean?"

"If you don't want others to involve today's matter on you, please send someone to check the Lu'an family that suddenly appeared and the dog before."

Ren Yaohua heard something in Ren Yaoqi's words, and frowned: "What does this matter have to do with me?"

"There is no relationship now, but there may be something going on soon. Some people are unwilling to miss this good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. On the doll, the old lady's horoscope was not written by Ren Yaoyu at all." Ren Yaoqi said softly without any haste.

Ren Yaohua was stunned when she heard this. After all, she was a smart person. After thinking about it carefully, she felt that this matter was indeed a bit strange.

She knew Ren Yaoyu's temperament. She might even disgust her with a curse. She really didn't have the courage to ask her to harm the old lady, although she often complained privately about the old lady being partial to her and Ren Yaoyin.

"I was the one Ren Yaoyu wanted to harm, but the birth date and horoscope were changed to grandmother?" Ren Yaohua concluded.

Her sister is indeed extremely smart, Ren Yaoqi smiled slightly.

"What if someone asked the old lady and the fifth lady to misunderstand that you did this?"

Ren Yaohua's pupils were all night long, and she turned her head to stare at Ren Yaoqi.

"With the fifth wife's character, we may not have a good life in Ziweiyuan in the future." Ren Yaoqi sighed.

The fifth wife, Lin, eats everything, but you won’t suffer any loss.

"Turns!" Ren Yaohua called her maid.

A girl who was about the same age as Ren Yaohua walked in: "What are the instructions for Miss?"

Ren Yaohua said: "Did you contact Ying'er and Zhu'er?"

Ying'er and Zhu'er were originally two big maids around their mothers. When Ren Yaohua and Li went to the village, Aunt Fang found a way to be given to the servant in the outer courtyard.

Wu Turnip nodded: "I went to see them the day before yesterday, and they were very happy to know that the wife and the lady were back."

Ren Yaohua nodded and was about to explain, but Ren Yaoqi suddenly interrupted: "There is no one else available except them?"

Ren Yaohua frowned: "They have been in Ziweiyuan for many years and are their mother's confidants."

Ren Yaoqi did not refute, but said indifferently: "Yes, everyone knows that they are from Ziweiyuan, so it is not easy to use them casually. Change another one, be careful."

Ren Yaohua looked at Ren Yao for a while before saying to Wu Jing: "Didn't you ever recognize a godmother when you entered the mansion? I remember the last time you said she was working in the tea room in the outer courtyard?"

Wu Zhen nodded quickly: "Yes, Miss. Two years ago, her son was sick and asked me and Xiangqin to borrow some silver from her. In the end, Madam Zhou begged her wife and I to collect all the silver."

"You go and ask her for some things." Ren Yaohua gave Wuzhu a few words in detail.

Ren Yaoqi waited for her to finish speaking, and added a few more words, and finally said, "Before noon, I want to know the news, go."

After writing down the turnips one by one, they hurried away.

Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua had nothing else to talk about, so they went to Li's place together.

Seeing that they came together, Li and Madam Zhou were very happy. They didn't say much, and only said something with Li without saying a word.

Turnips came back before lunch in Ziweiyuan. Ren Yaoqi and Ren Yaohua called her to Dongshaojian for a question.

"Miss, the Lu'an family was originally in charge of tea in the outer courtyard, and my servant's godmother happened to recognize her. I really asked the fifth lady to guess correctly. She really has something to do with our Ziwei Courtyard. Not only her, but even the owner of the big wolf dog is related to us!"
