Ms. Pei has been the head of the house for so many years, and has experienced times of glory and dignity, as well as times of downfall and despair.
The storm was coming, and to this day, she didn't realize there was anything wrong with relying on her granddaughter to vent her anger.
As long as you can vent your anger, the details are not important.
Lu Xinran received the news in the evening that her grandmother would recover early tomorrow morning. She had a smile on her lips when she went to bed.
Early the next morning, she didn't need Cuizhu and Cuixi to wake her up. She put on a brand-new dress in high spirits and tied her hair into a neat bun with a hairpin made of thumb-sized pearls.
The Buddhist beads given by the Queen Mother were worn on her wrist. She looked at herself again and again in front of the bronze mirror, then took out a gold lock ring from the box and hung it around her neck.
Well, it looks rich and impressive, very good!
When the granddaughters came back and there were people to support them, Pei's illness was almost completely cured immediately.
When Lu Xintong and Lu Xinling heard that they were going to visit Aunt Wang in her room later, they were so happy that they couldn't stop chattering around Lu Xinran.
Lu Kanghe's wife Wang's eyes are still a little swollen, and she has been very unlucky during this time.
She is the concubine's sister of Wang Jianmin, the minister of Honglu Temple. First, Wang Jianmin's errand went awry. All the evidence of these corruption crimes were found out, and a booklet was presented to the emperor.
Although she was just a concubine's sister and not of the same mother as Wang Jianmin, Lu Kanghe was favored by Lu Jinchuan. As the wife of Lu Kanghe's matchmaker, she was also highly valued in her natal family.
Over the years, the couple has taken the opportunity to go back and reap the benefits.
Originally, when something happened to Wang Jianmin, the Wang family asked her to help find a solution.
As a result, before she had time to mention the matter to Lu Kang, she was imprisoned in Shuntian Mansion for manslaughter.
"Mom, Third Master, I beg you to think of a solution."
As she spoke, tears began to fall again.
Her family was in ruins, her husband was in ruins, and her world was about to collapse.
Mr. Pei looked at her kindly, his eyes were indescribably kind, but his words were not pleasant to hear at all.
"What good solution can I, an old woman, think of? This matter, hey, there are all witnesses and material evidence, and it is still a case that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince personally handled, so it is difficult."
"Mother, you have an old relationship with the Queen Mother. Please help me."
Mrs. Wang knelt down with a pop, and crawled to Ms. Pei on her knees, as if she wouldn't get up if she didn't agree.
This turn of events immediately made several people in the room pay attention. Lu Xinran had already pulled out Wang's pamphlet.
[What does this mean to her? Force your grandma to do some moral kidnapping? 】
[Why doesn’t she ask Aunt Wang to find a solution for Lu Kanghe at this time? 】
[Before, I tried my best to help Aunt Wang to stumble my grandmother, and followed Aunt Wang to rob the public property. Now when something happened, I realized that my grandmother was her serious mother-in-law. She really showed that she didn't burn incense and was just improvising. 】
[How could she have the dignity to ask her grandmother to beg the Queen Mother? For a concubine who was always in trouble, even if her grandmother didn't applaud her when something happened, she was just a good-natured person. 】
Wang's cries just started to get louder, and then her face turned red as if someone had pinched her.
Mrs. Pei still looked at her kindly and kindly, but if you looked closely, you could see that her eyes were completely cold.
"My third daughter-in-law, your father loves the third child the most. If he can't find a way, it's useless for us to ask anyone. Don't worry too much. Go back and take good care of yourself. We'll see how it goes over the next few days. Everyone has lost weight."
After Pei finished speaking, Aunt Xu and her two wives dragged the person up from the ground forcefully.
Mrs. Wang left in despair. Ms. Pei patted the newly wrinkled hem and stood up with a smile.
"After such a big incident, Aunt Wang is a pitiful person. Let's go see her."
Lu Xinran immediately came up to her happily and held her arm, "Grandma is kind and kind. She is lucky to have a mistress like you."
Lu Xintong and Lu Xinling followed behind and praised them, and the smiles on the faces of the group were not covered at all.
The yards of Lu Jinchuan's two aunts are close to the lake. The yards are only surrounded by trees. People can see the lake view in the garden by pushing the windows in the room.
[As expected, he is the person that the old scumbag loves, and the accommodation he has arranged is the place with the best scenery in the house. 】
[However, if you live near a lake and the humidity is high, you will easily get rheumatism, right? 】
[When the time comes, there will be two aunts, one with old cold legs and one with rheumatoid arthritis...]
Lu Xinran laughed out loud as she thought about it. The crow's feet piled up in the corners of Pei's eyes, the two aunts were one with cold legs and the other with arthritis.
The imperial doctor who came to the mansion to treat them mentioned it vaguely several times, but the old lady thought it was because she didn't want those two people to live well. After rejecting it several times, the imperial doctor who came to diagnose them never mentioned it again.
Originally it was just a small thing and she had already forgotten about it, but when her precious granddaughter mentioned it, she suddenly felt extremely happy.
Lu Xinran looked at the lake, and the scene of her original body and Lu Xinlan falling into the lake flashed in her mind.
I don’t know where they are now, whether they have exchanged souls with them, or have completely disappeared into this world.
Mrs. Pei glanced at the sparkling lake, raised his hand and patted the back of her hand.
Lu Xinran came back to her senses and suddenly grinned.
"Grandma, if Third Aunt and Aunt Wang beg you again, you don't have to refuse them flatly."
She chuckled, met Pei's questioning gaze, and blinked.
"Third Aunt and Aunt Wang both have plenty of money. I believe they will be willing to spend some money to travel around for the sake of their husband and son."
Ms. Pei was startled, and then started laughing.
"You're so clever!"
In front of the ajar gate, the gatekeepers were chatting together.
Seeing a group of them walking straight over, one of them hurriedly went in to deliver a message, while the other welcomed everyone in with a smile on his face.
Aunt Wang was looking at the curtain on the top of the bed with swollen eyes.
When the servant said that Pei was here, she struggled to sit up and asked the maid to apply makeup on her.
She had been ill for several days, and her palm-sized face was dull and sallow, with obvious spots on both sides of her cheeks.
Even if she was ill, she would ask the maid to apply pearl powder on her before Lu Jinchuan came back, covering up all the ugly face, leaving only the lovely paleness.
She had been fighting with Mr. Pei all her life, how could she let her see her most embarrassing side.
Mrs. Pei came in very quickly. When she saw the pearl powder in the servant's hand, she smiled and stepped forward, blocking the servant behind her.
"Lie down quickly," she stepped forward to the bedside, not forgetting to pull up the corner of her back to tuck Aunt Wang: "You have to concentrate on recuperating now, don't worry about these details."
She said this, but the ridicule in her eyes was reflected directly in Aunt Wang's eyes.
Aunt Wang was so angry that her eyes hurt, and she forced out an ugly smile with blood in her throat.
"Mrs. Law is worried."
"Hey, it's a pity. I can't help you even if I'm worried. I can't even think of a way, and I can't help you."
Mrs. Pei spoke so sincerely that she could almost express the joy of schadenfreude directly on her face.
Lu Xinran huddled in the crowd and started flipping through the pamphlet excitedly.
[Sure enough, Jiang is still very old, and these few words from my grandmother will make Aunt Wang angry to death. But her own son failed to live up to expectations, and she couldn't refute him. 】
[I would rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine. Let me see how she got into the house and how she sank into becoming a concubine. 】
As soon as her heart dropped, even Mr. Pei, who was sitting beside the bed, pricked up his ears attentively.
