"Really?" Tong's mother was stunned when she heard this. "In that case, if I make grandma happy, maybe this matter will be over?"
Mother Jiang nodded, "It's possible, but Grandma doesn't need anything. How are you going to make Grandma happy?"
Mother Tong rubbed her hands and sighed, "I'll go back and think about it carefully!"
Mother Jiang nodded, "Okay...then if you have anything to ask, just come to me!"
After sending Mother Tong away, Mother Jiang returned to the house.
Li Qingyi smiled: "Is it sent away?"
Mother Jiang nodded, "She didn't want the old lady to notice that she was still doing things for others, so she covered herself up and didn't mention it to the old lady."
"It's not good, lest it cause complications and hinder us from gathering Mother Tong."
Silan said: "My grandma has forced her into a dead end, how can I get her back?"
Li Qingyi took an apricot and put it in her mouth. It was 30% sour and 70% sweet. It was just right. She looked at Mother Jiang with a smile and said, "Mom, teach this silly girl a lesson for me."
Jiang’s mother is a god, “What you are here for is not business. The more you want to win over someone, you have to push the person out first, lest she becomes suspicious, and lest she thinks she is of great use and will show off to us when the time comes. . She is currently racking her brains to think of ways to please our grandma, and after thinking about this account, let her put it on by herself, and we don’t have to work hard. "
Isatis opened her mouth, "So that's what happened."
She turned to look at Li Qingyi, "Grandma used to be smart, but she wasn't so clever. It seems she has been with the uncle for a long time, and she is so close... so close to Zhu Zhe!"
Isatis touched her nose and almost said something wrong.
Li Qingyi glared at her dissatisfied, "He is Chi and I am Mo."
Ji Lan chuckled, "Grandma is also naked, you are all naked..."
Li Qingyi was overjoyed, "Okay, let's get down to business. Princess Zhenbei is so mysterious that even the uncle has not been able to find out her true identity. We can't be too anxious. She is hiding, and we have to turn from the light to the dark... Think first. The way is to pull out a thread from Mother Tong, and then dig deeper bit by bit."
Isatis nodded, "What grandma said is that even if she cuts off the fox's tail at the root, there will be no trace left."
Mother Jiang said from the side: "Grandma said, did the princess instigate the old lady about the adoption?"
"It's possible, but it doesn't matter if it's not. I'm a bride and I don't know how to raise children. When the old man sends someone over, let her and the old lady worry about it, so as not to waste all their energy on them. Leave it to me and uncle."
It is impossible for the children to come alone, and they must be accompanied by at least two servants. Let’s not talk about whether the children know the ways here. The servants who come with them must know what they are here to do, and intrigues and deceptions are inevitable. .
When the house becomes a mess, she will be able to find something out of the chaos.
Even if the princess knew her intentions, it would be useless. After all, there were huge interests involved, and those who came from the old house would not be completely under her control.
Isatis blinked, "As for the girl's dowry, I thought there would be quite a few successors to the girl's name, so why don't we send five, seven or eight people for the girl to choose from?"
"Fifty, seven or eight?" Mother Jiang sneered, "I'm afraid you underestimate the power of money. Besides, grandma's children are uncle's children. With money backing, many people's eyes will be bright red! "
Li Qingyi thought for a moment and said, "When the time comes, let Changlan Changning watch carefully and don't cause any casualties. I mean, don't let anyone hurt those children."
Mother Jiang nodded: "Grandma, don't worry, I understand."
"There's one more thing. In addition to Mama Tong's side, there might also be a way for Second Aunt Grandma's side."
Song Zhenhe, the husband of the second aunt Gongsun Wanyan, worked hard as a local official for three terms and was finally transferred back to the capital, which meant he had to wait at home for a few days.
As a result, the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion and the Ministry of Personnel delayed the appointment because he had such an unlikely relationship with the fourth prince.
He has never relied on Zhenbei Palace for a single cent.
On the other hand, Zhenbei Palace caused him to lose his future. How could he not be angry and even revealed his intention to marry an equal wife?
Jiang's mother said: "This second uncle, for so many years, has not disliked his grandmother because of the downturn in the Zhenbei Palace. He has great respect for her and can be regarded as a gentleman. But this matter is suffocating and can't be ignored by anyone." I don’t feel comfortable either.”
"So, the second aunt felt guilty and anxious, and wanted to find a way out for her husband through the uncle, so as to avoid a rift between the couple, but the old lady refused to bow her head to the uncle and say a word of begging. On the day of the wedding, she looked at me His eyes are very warm, and he will most likely find an opportunity to mention this matter to me."
"No, the Second Aunt's grandma's greeting gift is also very thoughtful. It's just... If the Second Aunt's grandma really asks for this from you, the old lady will probably be dissatisfied with you."
Li Qingyi smiled softly, "Gongsun Wanyan is the most beloved daughter of the old lady. Will she really watch her daughter fall into an unbearable situation? If she doesn't nod, Gongsun Wanyan will still come to ask for help until the matter is resolved. Now, if she complains lightly about her daughter, will there be any deep hatred between mother and daughter?"
Silan curled her lips, "This old lady is really planning her best. She pretends to be noble on the surface, but secretly she wants to take advantage of her. You girl can't let her get her wish!"
"That's natural. It's not that we can't take advantage of it, but it depends on whether we let her take advantage of it. I just want to see if it's our heart that's hard, or the old lady's mouth that's hard..."
******
Maybe Li Qingyi had just agreed to the adoption. In the past two days, apart from sleeping in the morning and dusk, the old lady didn't take her over to set rules or anything. The people in the second and third bedrooms haven't figured out her temper yet, and no one has come to test or test her yet. It's a sign of goodwill.
Li Qingyi took advantage of the fact that Qin Zeng didn't have to go to the Yamen for these three days and asked him to accompany him to get familiar with the palace.
This house was given by the emperor when the King of Zhenbei got married to his late wife. It could not be said to be extravagant, and the layout was quite satisfactory, exuding a quaint atmosphere.
Although Qin Zeng has not lived here for many years, his childhood memories are enough for him to travel everywhere with his eyes closed.
Walking in a familiar place, Qin Zeng could not help but think of the past and his father, that tough but soft-hearted man. There was a different light in Qin Zeng's dark eyes, like a bunch of people ready to go. The fire can warm his limbs when he needs it.
Li Qingyi looked at him and asked tentatively: "What kind of person is your father...father-in-law?"
Qin Zeng looked down at her, his eyes unconsciously showing affection, "You and I are one husband and wife, why should we be so cautious when speaking?"
Li Qingyi pursed his lips and nodded, "Why don't you tell me what happened when you were a child?"
