Chapter 207.2
Lancao’s lack of composure drew sidelong glances from the others. Deep in her coronary heart, Yaoniang sighed silently and stated nothing, merely casting a look at Hong Chou.
Hong Chou tactfully helped her sit and stated with a smile, “Madam, please sit down. That is the correct etiquette to observe.” Her phrases had been neither abrupt nor domineering.
After the greetings, Yaoniang had Hong Chou take the kids away, and Lancao adopted to handle them. Everybody understood her emotions, and Yaoniang didn’t say something both.
As soon as everybody had left, Yaoniang requested, “Is she like this at residence as properly?”
The individual she was referring to was naturally Lancao.
Wu-shi sighed instantly, not sure of the best way to reply for a second.
Huiniang spoke up, “Since Father was ennobled by His Majesty, she has turn into much more cautious. She’s fantastic at residence, however getting into the palace for the primary time would possibly make her really feel considerably constrained.”
Each Huiniang and Yaoniang had been light souls and by no means spoke harsh phrases. Nevertheless, Huiniang didn’t reveal one factor: Lancao’s unease in entrance of Yaoniang was not solely as a result of she was the empress but additionally as a result of Lancao was once a servant in Jin Wang Manor earlier than marrying the consort’s brother and turning into her sister-in-law.
Yaoniang knew extra about Lancao than Huiniang did. Lancao’s preliminary look beside her elder brother wasn’t easy, and maybe neither the Su nor the Yao Household knew the reality. Nevertheless, His Majesty knew, Lancao knew, and that’s why she felt awkward and uneasy.

“Mom, why can’t you assume it via? Now that massive brother and Lancao’s relationship is nice, when you meddle a couple of times, fantastic. However when you do it too many instances, are you not afraid of being distanced from massive brother?” Yaoniang identified.
Wu-shi was speechless.
Huiniang had stated related issues earlier than, however she couldn’t settle for them. Now that her youngest daughter stated the identical, she felt considerably misplaced.
“Yucheng is my son. Would he distance himself from his personal mom?” Seeing Wu-shi like this, she was clearly heading right into a lifeless finish.
Yaoniang and Huiniang exchanged glances earlier than Yaoniang stated, “Mom, you shouldn’t be worrying your self over such issues. Why did you even comply with massive brother marrying her when you didn’t like her? You might’ve saved your self a lot hassle. In case you actually don’t like her, I may also speak to His Majesty and ask him to rearrange one other marriage for large brother.”
“Can we try this?” Wu-shi appeared to understand {that a} easy sentence may change somebody’s marriage, however she was not a merciless individual and couldn’t carry herself to hurt others, so she stated, “Let’s overlook about that concept. It’s not proper to hurt others together with your phrases.”
Yaoniang helplessly stated, “Take a look at you, neither altering nor staying the identical. Mom, you really want to cease worrying about her remedy of Ming Ge’er and the others. At worst, there’s Huiniang and me to observe over them. If she actually treats them poorly, she received’t cross our scrutiny.”
“Then I don’t must regulate her?” Wu-shi requested.
Yaoniang nodded, “If she treats Ming Ge’er and the opposite kids badly, I’ll report it to His Majesty.” In reality, Yaoniang may deal with the matter herself, but it surely was evident that mentioning ‘His Majesty’ gave Wu-shi extra reassurance, so she sacrificed Emperor Jin’an.
