Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 516 Blatant Partiality

Although Rong Yu also calls her grandmother, the two of them actually have no blood relationship, so she is very likely to be partial to her grandson Rong Jin.

"It's right to listen to me. This is what your grandfather meant. Feng is short-sighted and only sees what's in front of him. Rong Yu has been spoiled by her, and his talent is just so-so. He doesn't understand many complicated things.

But what about Rong Yu's wife Qian? She can't be said to be bad, but compared to you, she is a world away.

Actually, before, your grandfather and I were not very optimistic about Rong Yu's wife. We originally wanted to find a legitimate daughter for Rong Yu who was from a lower-class family, had better education, and was more capable, and could be used as the head of the household.

But Feng was determined to have her son marry someone from a wealthy and powerful family, probably thinking of helping Yu'er when the time comes.

So Rong Yu's wife, Qian, does seem to come from a decent family background, and her grandfather was also the right vice minister in the Ministry of Justice.

However, Qian was born out of wedlock, and her aunt was just a maidservant of her stepmother. So her upbringing and vision were there.

Moreover, her biological mother also had both sons and daughters, including three daughters, so she would not care about the upbringing of her concubine's daughter.

So Rong Yu's wife is also a short-sighted person. Sometimes, she is a little confused. I heard from people below that she is a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong, and who has high expectations but poor skills.

I heard that Rong Yu's wife's second brother and second sister-in-law will go together this time on the trip to Mobei. As for Qian's second sister-in-law, on the one hand, she is quite shrewd, but on the other hand, she is rather petty and looks down on the weak and flatters the strong.

You are going to Mobei together this time, and I guess you will meet them. I am afraid of them. They will see that you are thin-skinned and bully you everywhere, openly or secretly.

If something like this really happens, you don't have to be afraid. Remember, you are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion. If you run away, you are the face of our Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion. You don't have to be tolerant everywhere. In terms of family background, the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion is no lower than the Minister's Mansion.

If Yu'er's wife dares to disrespect you, you can just take action. Don't worry about who her family is? Who your family is? As long as you marry into our Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, you will be ranked according to seniority according to the rules of our Marquis Mansion.

Remember? You are the eldest daughter-in-law and eldest sister-in-law of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion. If the younger sister-in-law dares to look down on you by relying on her family background, you don't have to worry about it, just teach her a lesson. "Old Madam Pei was worried that Hua Lei was too shy, so she warned her.

"Grandma, I understand. Don't worry. If my second brother and his wife dare to bully me, I will just go up and give them a slap in the face.

Tell her that I have my grandmother's support, and let her think it over carefully. Right?" Hua Lei said with a smile, hugging Madam Pei's arm.

"Haha, yes, just say that. No matter what happens, I will support you. I'm just afraid that you won't dare to go up then." Old Madam Pei said with a smile.

"I understand, grandma. Don't worry. Although I am thin-skinned and tolerant, I do have a bottom line. If my bottom line is really touched, I will get angry." Hua Lei made a grinning gesture.

"That's good, that's good." Mrs. Pei smiled, "When you get there, remember to write home, okay? Everyone in your family is thinking about you."

"Got it, Grandma. I'll let you know I'm safe as soon as I get to Mobei. You and Grandpa should take good care of yourselves at home, okay? Eat when you need to, drink when you need to.

Don't worry about me and my husband. Compared to others, my husband and I are already in very good conditions. My father and mother are also in Mobei. If anything really happens, I can discuss it with them.

Although my mother-in-law doesn't like me, as you said, she doesn't have any bad intentions, so I can handle it.

Besides, my father has some influence in Mobei. As long as I work hard and try not to make mistakes, even if others don't like me, they can't do anything to me, so you can rest assured.

When my husband and I come back from Mobei, we will honor you and grandfather!" Hua Lei also comforted Mrs. Pei.

"Yes, I know, don't worry." Mrs. Pei nodded.

"By the way, grandma, please help me take care of my parents and Xiaoyuan on weekdays. My father has a stubborn temper.

He bears some resemblance to my grandfather, and has an air of a self-righteous scholar who would rather break than bend. So I am worried that he might not be able to handle many things well.

There's nothing wrong with my mother, except that she's a little weak. But her character is good and she can still bend down.

Xiaoyuan is also a bit stubborn and likes to get stuck in a rut, but he is quite smart, so as long as he doesn't go astray, there should be no problem. You can just ask your grandfather to guide him from time to time.

When it is time to admonish, just do it. If jade is not polished, it will not become a useful object. I will not blame you, I will only be grateful to you. "Hua Lei was a little worried about her family.

"Don't worry, I will watch over it. Your grandfather has also sent a few more guards over." Old Madam Pei nodded.

"Thank you, grandma." Hua Lei held Mrs. Pei's hand. In the front yard, Marquis Pei was also saying similar words to his two grandsons.

The next morning, Hua Lei and Rong Jin bid farewell to Lord Pei and his wife, and took a carriage with a group of servants to the gathering area at the north gate. Pei Rongyu and his wife's carriage followed behind.

Hua Lei didn't know exactly how many officials were sent to Mobei. She only knew that the court had sent more than a dozen officials from almost every department to Mobei, and there were even more ordinary people without official positions.

As for the Silin Bureau, there were two sixth-rank colleagues who went to Mobei. However, I heard that there were 15 or 16 grassroots staff members who went to Mobei, which was actually quite a lot for a small department belonging to a branch.

It is estimated that because of the capital, the court sold a lot of barren mountains, so the number of patrol officers can be reduced. I wonder if Gao Tiedan, Xiao Yuanzi and others have signed up to go to Mobei? Hualei didn't see them at the scene.

She was now assigned to the Ministry of Revenue, so she needed to be together with her colleagues in the Ministry of Revenue. However, there were relatively many colleagues in the Ministry of Revenue going to Mobei, and she had not yet recognized them all.

Hua Lei looked around and saw officials in various official uniforms, as well as their wives and children, and hundreds of horse-drawn carriages.

In addition to the servants and women who accompanied them, there were many mule carts, and there were also many horse and mule carts carrying supplies. The mighty procession stretched for several miles. It seemed that the big cake drawn by Emperor Shengwu did play a big role.
