“It is indeed a blessing for her to have the opportunity to follow Mr. Primus and take care of him. It doesn’t matter whether she becomes the second or third section of the family. Sister-in-law, you’re a practical person, and Mr. Primus is also kind-hearted. He would never mistreat her.”
“When my youngest daughter was little, a traveling Daoist priest even bestowed his fortune upon her. He said that she would encounter a benefactor in her life and would surely have a n.o.ble son in the future. She will be blessed abundantly! Haha, Sister-in-law, look, this is not what she should be doing!”
Speaking of n.o.bles, who could be more distinguished than the Primus?
Ms. Niu Senior didn’t believe that Ms. Fang wouldn’t be concerned about the Primus’ child since his wife hadn’t given birth yet.
Her daughter was blessed and leading a good life. Ms. Niu Senior wasn’t worried that she wouldn’t be enticed.
Ms. Niu Senior felt quite proud.
Surprisingly, Ms. Niu Senior wasn’t the only visitor to Ms. Fang today.
Everyone witnessed how the Shao Family transformed from an ordinary farming family into an ill.u.s.trious one.
Shao Yunduan, who believed he was fortunate to be chosen as the first Primus, couldn’t attribute it solely to luck.
Yang Xiaoni’s former siblings and sister-in-law were so ashamed that they wanted to bang their heads against the wall!
Initially, everyone was resentful and envious, but now their envy was complete.
Since the officials had already gone to the capital, what was there to doubt?
While they were envious, they couldn’t help but feel excited.
If they could establish some connections, would they have to worry in the future?
Many people had their eyes on Shao Yunduan the moment he returned.
The Primus held an official position in the capital, so it was only natural for him to take a concubine. Furthermore, since Ms. Qiao hadn’t given birth, how could she tolerate someone else?
If their own daughter gives birth to a son before him, they would become the eldest son. Why should they fear not receiving affection?
While others might have had similar intentions, they didn’t dare to voice them aloud. However, Ms. Niu Senior couldn’t contain herself and said it with a smile.
As Ms. Niu Senior spoke, she even mentioned all the traveling Daoists, though no one knew if they were genuine or not. Nevertheless, everyone worried that Ms. Fang might believe them, so they began recommending their own daughters.
“My daughter is also highly capable and knows how to take care of others!”
“My daughter is renowned for her beauty in our village!”
“All the girls who marry from our family are well-mannered. My youngest daughter will undoubtedly be the same!”
“And as for my household…”
Observing this, Ms. Niu Senior became both angry and anxious. She exclaimed, “You’re all so wicked! I was the first to suggest it. Why are you fighting over it? It’s utterly unreasonable!”
Why would others fear her words?
“Oh, Auntie Niu, it’s you who’s being unreasonable! So what if you mentioned it first? Claiming it’s your house? What a joke!”
“That’s correct. We should decide whose daughter it is. If you’re afraid of comparisons, then don’t say anything.”
“My daughter is the finest!”
“Our family is excellent!”
Ms. Niu Senior was so furious that she nearly got into a physical altercation.
Ms. Fang became so angered that she burst into laughter and snapped, “Stop arguing! It’s Erlang’s day today, and we’re all here for the wedding banquet and celebration. Why are you making such a ruckus?”
Immediately, someone flattered her. “After all, she’s Sister-in-law Fang. What she said makes sense! Absolutely!”
The others didn’t want to be left behind. “That’s right, that’s right. If you have something to say, say it. It’s unsightly to be so noisy!”
“Absolutely correct!”
