Chapter 104 Where there are people there are fights

She couldn't understand why the prince brought the princess back to live with him. She felt like he was torturing the princess.

When you come to live in the Duke's mansion, you will inevitably have to move around with your mother-in-law, old lady, and aunt. There will definitely be bumps and bruises, and the princess will not be able to adapt to it.

Chaohua looked in the mirror and said, "Isn't it the same in the palace? I am a princess, and no one in the Xie family will embarrass me."

What's more, if you don't go to say hello on the first day, it will leave a bad impression on people, and they will not have a good impression of her when they find out about her acceptance test.

If she wants to be liked, she must play a role that Xie Juan likes.

Xiuhe said, "I can't say for sure. Mrs. Xie and the old lady have nothing to say to the princess, but others don't know."

It’s not that she is unfounded. The wives of the third and eldest members of the Xie family are of lower background, but the wives of the second and third members are actually not bad.

Both of them came from noble ladies in the capital.

And wherever there are people, there are fights.

A little girl in Chaohua was well protected by the empress. She had never even experienced a palace fight, let alone a house fight. In fact, the back house was full of chicken feathers, and the Xie family was so peaceful that they only saw the surface.

"Did you hear any gossip?"

Xiuhe nodded, "Yesterday, I heard some girls talking about what the princess was doing when she came to live in the Duke's Mansion. Why didn't she just stay in the Princess Mansion? It would make them come out to greet them every day and they would have to be careful in their words and deeds.

Something like that.”

If the girl dared to say this, she must have listened to her master's complaints.

Chaohua narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are they the girls from the second and third bedrooms?"

"It should be that our place belongs to the eldest house. The eldest lady is charitable. There is only a nanny and a girl around. There are not many people. Yesterday, people from the eldest lady's side sent things. I think it's okay and I understand the rules.

polite."

"The second wife's wife is Tao, and the third wife's wife is Xu. When they married into the Duke's mansion, they brought many dowry girls and servants with them."

"There are two bedrooms in the Beiyuan, three bedrooms in the West Garden, and the old lady and our big room in the East Garden and Nanyuan."

The official residences in the capital are all divided into east, west, north and south. The three masters of the Xie family are all direct descendants, not concubines. They are all sons of the old lady. There is no big conflict between the brothers.

But the second wife and the third wife only got their wives after arriving in the capital.

Chao Hua smiled and said, "It's just some minor complaints. There's no need to worry about it. I won't live in the Duke's Mansion permanently."

Xiuhe thought it was right. Fortunately, the master was a princess, otherwise she would have suffered. She dressed up Chaohua.

After having some breakfast, Chaohua took people to Chunhui Garden to pay his respects to the old lady.

Everyone in the other rooms came early in the morning, but the child went to private school and did not come.

The Xie family is still small in number. Except for Xie Juan, who has a wife, the other two adult young masters have not yet married.

Those who came to pay their respects were Xie Xu, Xie Li, and Xie Tao.

When the princess arrived, the old ladies stood up to greet her and said, "Princess, please sit down quickly."

Others dare not neglect it.

Chaohua quickly stepped forward and helped her sit down, "Grandma, please sit down. Mother, second aunt, and third aunt, you can also sit down! We are a family and we don't need to be so formal."

Although Chaohua is very kind, she is a princess, so it is difficult for her to do so.

They will still be very cautious in their words and deeds.

After chatting for a while, two girls came.

They are Xie Yuxin from the second house and Xie Yushu from the third house. The daughter of the eldest house is still young and is working as a female celebrity in the house and did not come today.

They were of the same age, and Xie Yuxin was born one day earlier. Both girls were slim, beautiful and generous.

I've been here a few times but haven't seen either of them. It's said that they both haven't come back to my grandfather's house.

"I've met my sister-in-law."

The old lady looked at the two of them and frowned: "There are no rules, why are you here so late? The princess arrived before you."

Xie Yuxin and Xie Yushu both turned pale, and they knelt down and said, "Grandma, we didn't come late on purpose."

It was because they heard that the princess was very beautiful, and they didn't want to look bad when they lost, so they spent time dressing up and it was too late.

Seeing their daughter being scolded, Mrs. Xie Xu and Mrs. Xie Tao felt bad. They could not help but resent the princess but did not dare to say anything.

The reason why the old lady was so strict about rules suddenly was because Chaohua was here and she felt that no one could keep her waiting.

Having a princess wife is troublesome.

"Okay, everyone, get up! Don't be so late in the future."

The old lady just reprimanded them and said nothing more, "The princess will stay at the Duke's Mansion for a few days. You and the princess are similar in age. Please spend more time with the princess in the future."

Xie Yushu and the other two nodded in agreement.

Looking at the two of them, Chaohua didn't know him very well. He probably rarely showed up at banquets or anything like that.

But they all look good, fair and beautiful.

…

"Sister-in-law, I heard that you like peonies. These flowers were specially planted by the Duke's Mansion."

The two accompanied her to visit the garden of the Duke's Mansion.

"You don't know, there used to be no peonies in the Duke's Mansion, because planting these precious flowers and plants would make it impossible to raise chickens and ducks in the garden."

"Grandma doesn't like growing flowers, so she loves farming."

The gardens of the Duke's Mansion have become vegetable gardens.

Therefore, Mrs. Xie Tao and others disliked the old lady's behavior very much. They were afraid that their daughter would develop such a petty attitude, so they sent her to her parents' family to educate her.

They want to raise their daughter to be a real lady.

Chaohua didn't know these things. He looked carefully at the soil in the garden, which was all loose and new. "When was it planted?"

"Yesterday! I heard that my eldest brother was going to take you back to stay for a while, so my grandmother asked someone to put the vegetable garden in immediately..." Realizing that she had said something wrong, Xie Yuxin hurriedly covered her mouth and smiled, "The garden of the former Duke's Mansion

They grow vegetables and raise chickens and ducks for my grandmother.”

Xie Yushu was also quite disgusted, "At that time, there was a stinking smell everywhere."

Chaohua was surprised, "Does grandma still grow vegetables by herself?"

That's a really down-to-earth old lady.

Xie Juan brought her local eggs and said they were eggs from the old lady's own chickens. This time she believed him.

"My grandmother grew up in a mountain village, and she was used to farming."

"But it's okay now. Sister-in-law, if you come back to live, the garden will no longer stink. Because my grandmother used to raise chickens and ducks in the yard, so no one came to our house to play."

"It's so bad that the second brother and the third brother still haven't got a wife."

After getting along with each other, he found that they were no different from other noble ladies from aristocratic families. Chaohua frowned slightly and said, "Well, I'm a little tired. Let's go back and rest first."

When the two of them were talking animatedly, the princess made an excuse and left.

"Why is the princess gone?" Xie Yuxin asked in surprise.

Xie Yushu raised her lips and said with a smile: "You probably can't accept the Duke's mansion using the garden to grow vegetables!"

Xie Yuxin said: "When the princess comes back, the Duke's Mansion will spend a lot of money. These peonies cost thirty thousand taels."

"Grandma and aunt must be very distressed."

Huh, that's just a petty thing.

"Don't worry! The princess doesn't want us to accompany her, but it's not that we don't want to accompany her."

After saying that, the two of them left together.

Chaohua walked out of the rockery, and his brows were knotted when he looked at the two figures.

She really doesn't know the Xie family well enough.

Xie Juan didn't seem happy to see her when he came back, "What's wrong? But is there anyone in the Duke's mansion who makes you unhappy?"

"No."

"You still have two cousins. You didn't see them last time when you came back. Don't they live in the Duke's Mansion?"

When mentioning his two cousins, Xie Juan's expression became much more indifferent, "Well, they grew up in the Tao family and the Xu family since they were young. The second aunt and the third aunt felt that the Duke's mansion could not raise a young lady."

"..."

"Is it true that grandma raised chickens and ducks in the garden?"

Xie Juan smiled and said, "Have they all told you?"

"Um."

"Then the princess thinks my house smells bad?"

Chao Hua rolled his eyes at him and said, "You brought me back to stay here just to test me, right?"

Xie Juan sat down and put his arms around her shoulders, "No, I just want you to integrate into my family better. Xie Yushu and Xie Yuxin, you don't have to worry about them. Anyway, they didn't grow up in our parents, and their words and actions cannot represent our family.

Just look at my mother and grandmother."
