Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord Chapter 1030 Miscellaneous People

"So many people gathered here, what on earth is going on?"

Just at this mont, the Old Madam walked in, surrounded by several maids.

Xuexue had yet to speak.

Situtu Qinger had already eagerly stepped forward, smiling and saying: "Grandmother, it’s the Fourth Prince who graces us with his presence! Qinger and big sister are entertaining him!"

"Oh! It turns out to be the Fourth Prince, this old body pays her respects." The Old Madam perford a courtesy towards the Fourth Prince.

Originally, the Old Madam was but a commoner, and a prince seated would have received worship even so, but since his visit to the General’s Mansion had a purpose, he naturally needed to ingratiate himself with the Old Madam.

"The Old Madam need not be overly courteous, this Prince rely ca by casually, for a simple visit and a leisurely chat."

"How wonderful! The Fourth Prince’s personal visit is the greatest honor for the General’s Mansion, hehe...!" The Old Madam’s face was filled with smiles.

Indeed, in the Imperial Court, many an official family would go to great lengths to curry favor with the Royal Family, deploying manpower and resources to secure connections, all so soone in court could support their clan, preventing others from daring to bully them in the slightest.

"Hehe...! Wonderful, wonderful."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two settled down.

The Old Madam glanced disapprovingly at the Mo family crowd, thinking to herself, the Fourth Prince’s grand visit was the glory of the General’s Mansion, what business did these country bumpkins have here, coming to join the excitent?

"Xuexue, the Fourth Prince is of noble status, he is not soone any Tom, Dick, or Harry could approach, bid those idlers to depart, lest they mar the Prince’s eyes," the Old Madam said elegantly, yet her words were sharply pointed.

The Mo family were seething with anger, but in front of the Old Madam, they dared not retort even a single word.

Xuexue was not at all surprised by the Old Madam’s preference for the rich and disdain for the poor.

Indeed, since her birth mother was of lowly birth and was often troubled by the Old Madam, who also knew that Auntie Tang was fond of Situ Yongjie and had tried every ans to bring her into the General’s Mansion, hoping she might take Lady Li’s place.

Only, after they finally had their way and Lady Li was out of the picture, things were far beyond their control.

Because Situ Yongjie was still preoccupied with the late Lady Li, he was vague about elevating Auntie Tang to her position and had been evasive all along.

Over the past decade and more, it had been spent in such evasiveness, further compounded by the fact that Situ Yongjie was often busy with state affairs, following the War Prince to the Frontier to fight, a year or half a year’s absence was common occurrence.

Xuexue couldn’t have been more eager when the Old Madam said this!

She turned her head to the others and said, "The Old Madam says to withdraw; didn’t you hear her? Withdraw quickly."

The Old Madam represented the entire General’s Mansion, and the Mo family wasn’t foolish enough to offend her.

Seeing the Old Madam look rather angry, Situtu Qinger also dared not make a sound.

Hence, the people from the Mo family all left with drooped heads.

"By the way! I have brought gifts for everyone on my visit today," the Fourth Prince said. Then he lifted his arm and gently clapped his hands.

The guard behind him placed the gifts on the table one after another.

"My, my! The Fourth Prince is too kind, just your presence is enough, why bother bringing gifts? Hehe...!" The Old Madam uttered polite words, but her sparkling eyes betrayed her true thoughts.

"They are but trifles."

As he spoke, the Fourth Prince picked up a gift box, pressed sowhere on it.

"Snap!"

The box sprang open in response.

Inside, it was none other than a piece of Hetian Jade of fine quality, bright and green, its top-grade nature evident at a glance.

"Old Madam, do you like it?"

"I like it, I like it, it’s beautiful." The Old Madam couldn’t take her eyes off it, knowing it was an item from the Royal Family and unquestionably valuable; with that thought, her excitent grew and she couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
