When Gongsun Wanyan heard that Li Qingyi did not call the old lady "grandmother", but called herself aunt, she moved her butt forward involuntarily and smiled, "Good boy, we are all members of the family, there is no need to pay attention to these false etiquette."
The old lady gave her a dissatisfied look, but since Li Qingyi was present, she couldn't say more and said calmly: "Get up."
"Yes." Li Qingyi stood up straight and asked, "I wonder what the old lady wants to do when she comes to see her granddaughter-in-law?"
The old lady looked at her with half-lowered eyes, "I have something to ask you. Please sit down."
Li Qingyi held the girl's hand and walked slowly to sit opposite Gongsun Wanyan, smiling and saying: "Old madam, please speak."
The old lady glanced at Gongsun Wanyan and saw that her eyes were full of pleading. She frowned slightly and asked in a very roundabout way: "You lived in the Wei family before. I must have heard that Wei Shangshu was going to join the cabinet?"
Li Qingyi knew that she wanted to find out who would fill the vacancy of the Minister of Civil Affairs after Wei Shicheng entered the cabinet, so he couldn't help but smile and said: "The old lady really thinks highly of my grandson-in-law. She is just a housewife, and she is young and ignorant. How can she know how to go to court?" If the old lady wants to know about the doorways in the hall, why not call the uncle over and ask?"
The old lady suddenly choked up when she heard this, and she didn't know whether Li Qingyi was deliberately trying to shirk it or if he really didn't know.
Gongsun Wanyan sat beside him, worried, and winked at the old lady frequently.
The old lady's face couldn't help but darken.
Li Qingyi looked at the quarrel between mother and daughter and pretended not to understand. The old god was sitting there waiting to ask questions and did not feel embarrassed at all.
In the end, Gongsun Wanyan couldn't help but said, "Niece-in-law, my aunt actually wants to ask you something..."
Li Qingyi smiled gently and said, "Auntie, please ask."
"That's it...your uncle's re-election term has expired, and he is currently waiting to be transferred back to the capital to take up a post. Originally, there was no rush, but the personnel transfer in the Ministry of Personnel has also affected your uncle's appointment. There is no news after waiting. , I want to ask Brother Zhen if he knows something inside, but Brother Zhen has been away from home for many years, and I, the aunt, am too embarrassed to open my mouth..."
Li Qingyi looked at her with a smile.
She was embarrassed to speak to her nephew who had been away from home for many years, but it was easy to speak to her, a niece-in-law whom she had never met.
"My aunt is out of touch with what she said. Zhenlang is your nephew after all, so what can't you ask? Why don't I just ask someone to call him over? If my aunt wants to ask anything, why don't I ask him personally?" not cheap?"
Li Qingyi said, then turned to look at the old lady, "What do you think?"
The old lady looked at her, her eyes unknowingly gleaming with ice.
It was clear that Li Qingyi could just ask Gongsun Wanyan, but he still had to ask her for instructions.
This is forcing her to speak to Qin Zeng!
Gongsun Wanyan was anxious and her voice was almost pleading, "Mother..."
The old lady didn't seem to hear it, watching Li Qingyi squeeze out three words, "No need."
"Mother!"
"Okay! Once someone from the Ministry of Civil Affairs fills the vacancy, these matters will be taken care of naturally. Why are you anxious?"
Gongsun Wanyan bit his lip.
There is an emperor and a courtier, and the same is true for the appointment of lower officials. If the Minister of Personnel is changed, the performance appraisal will be re-evaluated. I don’t know what will happen!
Li Qingyi lowered his eyes, pretending that he didn't know anything.
Old Mrs. Gongsun looked at her well-behaved but indifferent appearance, and her face was extremely ugly, "You go down."
"Yes, grandson-in-law is resigning."
Li Qingyi blessed them and left Jingyuntang.
Woad whispered in a low voice: "The old lady won't bring grandma over tomorrow to set the rules, right?"
Heng Wu said: "If the old lady wants to set rules for grandma, I have to set rules for my second aunt and grandma."
Silan smiled: "That's really what happened, then I'm relieved. Grandma, what should we do in the afternoon?"
Li Qingyi thought for a while and said, "There is nothing wrong with you in the house. Why don't we find the uncle and let's go out of the house."
When they arrived in the east courtyard, Qin Zeng was waiting for her in the study.
Her expression remained normal, so she didn't even ask.
Li Qingyi was extremely happy when he saw how relieved he was about him.
"Can we leave the house?"
Qin Zeng raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why not?"
"After all, we have just gotten married, and I am a bride. Isn't it a good time to go out and hang out?"
Qin Zeng looked at her and said, "If you thought you couldn't do it, you wouldn't have mentioned it to me. Since you did, you're not afraid."
Li Qingyi smiled, stretched out his hand to grab his sleeve and shook it, "We haven't gone shopping together yet!"
Qin Zeng was so shaken by her that he was afraid that he would lose control if he continued like this, so he stood up and pecked her on the forehead, "Let's go."
"Hey, wait." Li Qingyi grabbed him and told Heng Wu, "Go to the princess's courtyard and talk to her."
The princess is a kind-hearted person and will not stop her. If you go to the old lady for advice, you are asking for trouble.
Sure enough, Heng Wu left for a while and then returned, smiling: "The princess gave me a few words of advice, but didn't say much else."
Li Qingyi looked at Qin Zeng with a smile and said, "Let's go."
After the two of them left the house, the news spread to Jingyuntang.
The old lady slammed the tea cup in her hand to the ground, and the shattered pink and blue porcelain pieces flew to Gongsun Wanyan's feet, making her tremble, "Mother..."
"Little beast! They don't even take me seriously!"
Gongsun Wanyan looked at his mother's fierce look and frowned slightly, "Mother, you are not at all tolerant of Brother Zhen, how can he give in?"
The old lady looked at her daughter, "Why, you still want to scold me for him?"
"Mother! Do you really want to continue this stalemate?"
The old lady turned away her eyes coldly, not looking at her.
Gongsun Wanyan was helpless at her stubbornness, and he complained in his heart that she refused to help him for the sake of face. Without even saying a soft word, he stood up and said: "My daughter has been out for a while, so I will go back now and see you another day." you."
When the old lady saw her turning around and leaving, she was so angry that she slapped the table table loudly, "Okay! Every one of them is reversed!"
Mother Tong quickly advised her: "Old madam, please calm down! My aunt is also worried and angry. How can mother and daughter really have any complaints?"
The old lady snorted coldly, "What if I never ask for help from that little beast?"
Mother Tong sighed after hearing this, "If the old lady really wants to compete like this, I'm afraid my aunt will be heartbroken."
The old lady snorted coldly, "I don't believe it. Only that little beast can do anything in this world. Go and get my private self."
Mother Tong knew that she was determined, so she stopped trying to persuade her and went to get the things.
The old lady took out some banknotes and said, "Have someone send them to Yan'er."
"yes."
Mother Tong looked at the banknote in her hand and agreed, but her heart ached.
She feels dizzy when she sees the banknotes now. How great it would be if these banknotes were hers!
She has to go to grandma's place to order some ham in the evening!
