Favoring Concubines and Neglecting the Wife? The General’s Wife Calls it Quits and Divorces! – Chapter 31

Ch 31: Family Banquet

Old Madam Nian’s steps were a little fast, and Mama Cui could hardly support her.

“Old Madam, slow down!”

But Old Madam Nian couldn’t wait. Only when she saw her son, Guo Liangxian, enter the door with her own eyes could she feel at ease!

“Son!”

“Mother!” Guo Liangxian quickly came to her, his face full of joy,

“It’s done! It’s done! Prince Xian agreed to help with the manor. Our family will have a harvest!”

Old Madam Nian was full of excitement, “Good! That’s great, I knew my son was the best!”

Guo Liangxian was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Yuan Xueyue who was about to walk by,

“It’s Xueyue, she also contributed a lot. We had a very pleasant conversation with Prince Xian.”

Old Madam Nian glanced over, her eyes slightly hesitant, but she didn’t deny it, “Good, good, good, you are all good, hurry up and go in to wash your hands, rest for a while and have a meal.”

Mama Cui raised her hand and said, “General, Wife, follow this old servant.”

The maids and servants in the residence were all busy!

Tonight’s family banquet was very lively.

For the first time, Old Madam Nian also let Lin Yan’er from the side courtyard come over.

In terms of status, she was about to be promoted!

The seats should have been arranged, but Lin Yan’er sat directly in the position of the house master!

Guo Liangxian glanced at it and didn’t say anything.

Yuan Xueyue smiled faintly in her heart, and went to sit in the side seat, with Ju Niuer and Xing Ge’er beside her.

“Why are you sitting in Mother’s seat?” Xing Ge’er said anxiously, pointing at Lin Yan’er.

Old Madam Nian also happened to step in, seeing this scene and Xing Ge’er’s words, she couldn’t help but glare at Lin Yan’er!

Old Madam Nian said, “A wild girl? So ignorant of the rules!”

Lin Yan’er pretended to be aggrieved and leaned towards Guo Liangxian,

“General~ I just wanted to accompany you and serve you… but I didn’t know this was Wife’s seat.”

“Stop talking! Get up quickly!” Old Madam Nian said coldly.

She had already asked Mama Cui to call her over, and she still wanted to steal the show?

“General~ I don’t want to leave you!” Lin Yan’er’s tears hung in her eyes, extremely weak.

Guo Liangxian lowered his voice and said,

“Mother, she is still weak, it’s just right for her to be by my side.”

Old Madam Nian said loudly, “It’s really rude! Are there no maids and servants in the residence? Do you need a house master to accompany you? What status should sit in what position!”

While speaking, Old Madam Nian did not forget to glance at Yuan Xueyue’s direction to see what her expression meant.

But at a glance, Yuan Xueyue was sitting in the side seat, without any movement.

“Xueyue, you come and sit here!” Old Madam Nian pointed to the position occupied by Lin Yan’er.

Helplessly, Guo Liangxian had to comfort Lin Yan’er,

“Go, this is Wife’s seat, you can’t be ignorant of the rules, be obedient!”

As he spoke, Guo Liangxian also gave her a look.

The meaning was, bear with it, anyway, he had her in his heart!

Lin Yan’er stood up helplessly, bowed to the Old Madam to apologize, and then went to the side seat.

The side seat was only one seat away from Ju Niuer!

And the position that Lin Yan’er had previously occupied was on Guo Liangxian’s right, which should have been the position of the house master’s wife, and on the left was the position of the Old Madam.

Ju Niuer rolled her eyes,

“What a big show! The position of the house master is not something anyone can sit in just because they want to.”

Xing Ge’er also didn’t have a good face, looking at this sudden Lin Yan’er, he deliberately leaned closer to Ju Niuer.

After sitting down, among the six people at the table, only Lin Yan’er was the most isolated!

Old Madam Nian looked at the table full of delicacies and said with a smile,

“Eat, Liangxian can get Prince Xian’s help, and the days to come will be better!”

Everyone picked up their chopsticks, and each had maids waiting on them.

◈◈◈

Lin Yan’er was dissatisfied, her eyes kept looking at Guo Liangxian opposite, hoping he would say something!

Guo Liangxian ate quietly, having already noticed Lin Yan’er’s eager eyes.

But he didn’t want to say it so quickly. After the meal was halfway through, the maid brought a handkerchief, he wiped his mouth and said,

“Mother, in two days, Brother Xiaozhao will take me to divide the land, prepare the staff, and the Prince’s Residence will also provide a sum of silver taels.”

Old Madam Nian nodded knowingly, very satisfied in her heart!

Old Madam Nian said, “Good, it’s a matter of time. Now that it’s peaceful, we have to do something with the manor.”

Guo Liangxian continued,

“It’s just that Yan’er’s body has not yet recovered. Can we support her with the allowance of a concubine first? The residence is not short of that little bit of silver, is it?”

At these words, Old Madam Nian’s eyes instantly changed, and she frowned, “In the end, you want to take her in as soon as possible, right?”

Guo Liangxian, “Yes.”

Old Madam Nian turned to Yuan Xueyue and said, “Xueyue, what do you think?”

The meaning was, she wanted her to refuse.

A concubine who has not yet entered the door, publicly challenging the rules and dignity of the General’s Residence several times, overriding the house master.

Old Madam Nian had long been displeased, but she couldn’t see through Yuan Xueyue’s mind!

As the dignified house master, why doesn’t she care?

Letting her husband indulge in his concubine?

In the future, will she ride on the Old Madam’s head after being taken in?

Old Madam Nian would never easily let Lin Yan’er succeed in such a shameful thing!

“General, Mother-in-Law can decide. After the decision is made, I will take care of it carefully.”

Yuan Xueyue lowered her eyes and said, not giving too many emotions.

What’s the use of caring? It was the same in the previous life, and she became an unreasonable wife!

Thinking about it now, it was really a waste of worry!

Instead of preventing it, it’s better to let Guo Liangxian and Lin Yan’er court death!

An ignorant concubine entering the hall will sooner or later cause a stir!

“You…” Old Madam Nian hesitated.

But Guo Liangxian kept looking over, trying to seek consent!

Now only Old Madam Nian is refuting, which seems a bit unkind.

Ju Niuer leaned forward, seemingly having something to say.

Old Madam Nian said, “Niuer, are you willing to have another sister to serve Liangxian with you?”

Ju Niuer was immediately interested when she heard this.

“No! Niuer doesn’t want to!”

“What’s the point of having more or fewer? Now the General often stays in Miss Lin’s side courtyard, and rarely even sets foot in the Pear Garden!”

“Even if a concubine is taken in, Miss Lin will be even more unscrupulous!” Ju Niuer has a very strong temper, and her words revealed this scandal.

Old Madam Nian’s face darkened.

Mama Cui also often came to inform her that Guo Liangxian rarely went to the Pear Garden to cultivate feelings with Yuan Xueyue!

When he came back, he was busy flirting with Lin Yan’er!

With a bang!

Old Madam Nian slapped the table, startling everyone.

Ju Niuer was stunned.

Old Madam Nian said, “Two concubines cannot be taken in within one month!”

“The reputation of our General’s Residence cannot be ruined by you!”

“Liangxian, Mother knows you love her dearly, but you have to take care of the overall situation, don’t let this b*tch mess around!”

A few words shook the hearts of everyone present.

Especially Lin Yan’er, she hated it so much!

This old woman, why is she so pedantic!

Guo Liangxian said,

“Yes, my son does not want to take another concubine immediately, but to let Yan’er recover first. Mother, don’t misunderstand, my son will not ruin the family’s reputation.”

Old Madam Nian snorted coldly, “It’s good that you know! Mama Cui, tell the people below to take good care of that Miss Lin!”

After that, no one spoke again.

Now there are two updates at zero o’clock every day! Love you all! （￣3￣）╭
