However, thinking about how Hu Family could be considered to be standing by the side of Fifth Prince and the fact that the youngest concubine of her family had already secretly given the right to the son of Fifth Prince, her heart felt a lot more comfortable.
It seemed that with such a wangfei in the Hu Family, life would be easier.
If they waited another two generations and properly nurtured the men of their family, perhaps their Hu Family would also be as glorious as their Xu Family today.
Dong Shu had been quietly standing beside them the entire time, listening to their conversation. Out of the corner of her eyes, she sensed that some of the ladies and ladies surrounding Aunt Sister had noticed Xu Yanzhu, causing her to unconsciously raise the corner of her mouth into a smile.
Up until now, everything had gone smoothly, and they hoped that after today, the outside world would proceed as they had planned.
Xu Nuanwen was already a little tired, she wanted to show her face to the people around her, but when she thought about how her husband was at her most important moment, she endured it.
When she turned around and saw Dong Shu's secret hand gesture, she immediately became happy.
”Look at me, we were happily chatting here, but we ignored those few madams over there.” Xu Nuanwen said as she led a large group of people to Dong Shu's side.
No one suspected anything when Xu Nuanwen said that. After all, there were still wives with Dong Shu and her Zhang Family.
Although there weren't any officials with high positions in the Hu Family, there was still a Empress Hu in the palace.
As for Zhang Family, they were an outer sect of the Fifth Prince, and would definitely be a family that everyone would want to depend on in the future.
Sensing Xu Nuanwen's movements, Dong Shu immediately led the few ladies and leading them towards her.
Seeing Dong Shu walk over, Xu Nuanwen hurriedly laughed and joked: ”Aiyo, sister-in-law, are you seeing us coming towards you guys so you took the initiative to come over?” As she spoke, Xu Nuanwen reached out to grab Dong Shu's hand.
Dong Shu's expression was a little awkward, as if she wanted to cover up someone behind him.
Some sharp-eyed people already knew that Xu Yanzhu was sitting not far behind Dong Shu. They thought that Dong Shu's actions right now, were definitely to hide the Xu Yanzhu who was not that far behind them.
However, those who came to the Xu Family today had all been warned by the elders of the family, so after coming to the Xu Family, there was no need to mention the matter of Xu Yanzhu.
Therefore, although there were a few people who used their eyes to communicate, no one was the one who actually opened their mouths to ask.
Looking at Dong Shu's expression, Xu Nuanwen was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood the reason behind her action.
Her expression changed for a moment, and then she quickly looked at the crowd and laughed, ”We forgot the time when we came out. Just now, mother told us to go back earlier.” How about we go back and have a taste of Xu Family's specialty? ”
Since the future empress had spoken, how could they not be justified?
What's more, half of the people had already guessed that Xu Nuanwen would speak up, because they did not want to see him.
They all felt that was the reason. Although there were still people who exchanged glances on the way back, no one said it out loud.
There was no need to mention the time when Xu Nuanwen's father went to the army to fight in the northwest. Not to mention that Xu Nuanwen's family had cooks who could cook in the northwest, but even after ten years, there were still cooks who could cook at home.
It wasn't convenient for the capital to buy seafood, but there were some seafood that could be dried in the sun.
Today, Xu Family cooks performed steadily, eating a table of delicate and delicious dishes.
Although in the end they still did not manage to find out whose family the Fifth Prince Concubine had taken a fancy to as his first wife, but taking advantage of the banquet that was held today, their relationship with the Xu Family increased.
With such a harvest, when these wives and girls returned to their residences, they couldn't help but sigh for Xu Yanzhu, who was about to enter the Xu Family.
Those wives and girls who had seen Xu Yanzhu from afar, when they were chatting with others, they also pulled Xu Yanzhu out and said some words that belonged to the Xu Family Mistress and her Madame Dong.
When these words spread, it would change a little, but the effect that the Xu Family desired already existed.
After confirming that there were no rumors spreading outside that Xu Yanzhu was not a woman anymore, Xu Family prepared to use this excuse to send Xu Yanzhu to the temple, to send her away from the capital.
