After saying these words to Xu Nuanwen, Dong Shu turned to the other wives and girls and said: ”The garden in the palace was all cleaned up by Big Sis previously. Everyone watch it later, you must properly tell Big Sis that this Big Sis is is so nice, in the future, come and look at the Xu Family's garden more often.”

Once Dong Shu said that, the entire hall erupted with laughter.

The juniors did not dare to laugh even if they wanted to. The only ones who could laugh without fear were the few Old Madame s who sat there without moving.

”Since you're going to the garden to admire the flowers, then hurry up. After you're done with the flowers, go eat some of the food unique to Xu Family; this way, you guys did not come here for nothing.”

The Old Madame Xu sat on the seat of honor, smiling as she said those words, but her words made the hearts of the interested madams and young ladies quiver when they heard it.

Did this mean that they were destined to have come here for nothing?

No matter what, Xu Nuanwen still brought them to the Xu Family's garden in the end.

There were many gardens in Xu Family, but the largest garden in the backyard was for guests.

Today, the garden had been specially tidied up. As soon as he walked in, he could smell the fragrance of chrysanthemums.

Some of them spoke around Xu Nuanwen, while others simply came to talk to Dong Shu.

Those surrounding Dong Shu were mostly in-laws, such as the mother and wife of Madame Hu and the wife of the Xu family.

The few of them gathered together, followed by the girls from home. Due to their marital relationship, the girls were on good terms with each other, chattering merrily, as if they were young daughters.

As for the few ladies at the front, although they had their own thoughts, they did not speak carelessly when they spoke to Dong Shu.

After they finished admiring the scenery, they started to talk about their children.

Amongst the few of them, Dong Shu was the youngest. Even though they were of the same generation, she and Xu Shiqiu was currently the only one under her feet.

As he spoke of Yuanxi, although Dong Shu's words were a little irritable, there was a trace of happiness between his brows.

”Now that Yuanxi is older and bigger, I can't coax her. She didn't seem to know how to talk, but she was quite smart. I really don't know how this child grew up.

Just as Dong Shu finished speaking, the Xu family's Madam Xu immediately followed up: ”Then your Yuanxi is really clever, our two girls were at her age but not this clever.” After saying that, the Madam Xu smiled and continued, ”Everyone says that nieces are more like aunts. I heard that when the Fifth Prince's Concubine was young, he was praised by a lot of people.”

When the Madam Xu's words came out, the Madam Zhang Family followed suit and nodded her head, ”Yes, extremely. In the past, Yuanxi's aunt was renowned throughout the capital, otherwise the prince would not have left the palace frequently. ” After saying that, Madam Zhang Family winked at Dong Shu and the rest.

Dong Shu understood that Madam Zhang Family was referring to the matter of her brother-in-law coming out of the palace to meet the Aunt Sister after coincidentally meeting him once in the past.

Although this matter had been going on for many years, quite a few people knew about it.

Zhang Family were brother-in-law's outer sect so they naturally knew about this matter.

It was not good for Madam Hu Family to give more evaluation of Fifth Prince's frequent visits to find Xu Nuanwen. She could only open her mouth and say: ”I think that Niece's words are reasonable. Our family's girls are indeed somewhat similar to Aunt.”

Dong Shu did not know which generation of ladies the Madam Hu Family had mentioned, but with the personality of the Madam Hu Family, she must be thinking of capturing the girl from the Hu Family at the palace.

However, Dong Shu's objective for the day had already been achieved, so she did not investigate any further. She led the few people forward for a distance before she saw the hidden and indistinct Xu Yanzhu in front of her.

Upon seeing Xu Yanzhu, Dong Shu's footsteps immediately stopped, and her strangeness also attracted the attention of the other wives.

Everyone followed Dong Shu's gaze, and when they saw Xu Yanzhu, who was seated on the porch, they did not know what to say.

Sensing that everyone was already looking at Xu Yanzhu, Dong Shu let out a long sigh.
