In the elegant room of Zuixiao Tower, one of the largest restaurants in the capital, a young girl sat on the table.
She has a beautiful appearance. She is dressed in splendid clothes and a jeweled headdress. She has a haughty face and cold eyes, and every part of her looks rich and honorable.
This is the daughter of Prince Guangning, sister of Zhou Biao, and the head of Jili County.
Su Jin knelt on the ground, not daring to raise her head.
The Lord of Jili County became angrier as he listened and was so angry that he threw the tea cup! Tea splashed all over Su Jin!
Su Jin didn't dare to move, but she was ecstatic inside!
Su Jin used money to pave the way, and finally got acquainted with Xue Ye, the most considerate maid beside the county master.
After Xue Ye's help, Su Jin burst into tears after meeting the Lord of Jili County!
Su Jin said how the Ji sisters used the names of Guangning Crown Prince Zhou Biao and Jiangxia Crown Prince Zhou Huan to make a lot of money!
Not only that, but she was also domineering in the Huai'an Marquis' Mansion. Except for the Marquis and his wife, all the ladies in the Marquis' Mansion did not look down on her. They, the aunts, were even oppressed to the point where they had no place to live, and even life was worse than death.
Su Jin said angrily again,
"The sisters of the Ji family are still saying in the Huai'an Marquis' Mansion that they are about to marry the prince, the county lord. Doesn't this ruin the reputation of the prince? The prince is a royal relative, how can he be a small fourth-rank official like him or them? Is it possible for a daughter to have a relationship with a merchant girl? However, even if the prince does not take them seriously and does not want to marry them, but they publicize it so vigorously, the noble ladies in the capital may have misunderstandings about the prince. What if... …”
Xue Ye also frowned and pretended to be angry and added:
"County Lord, who are you! How can you have a sister-in-law who is a merchant girl or a fourth-rank official's daughter! They are not worthy of carrying your shoes! How dare they be so shameless! Doesn't this make the whole capital laugh at you?"
The head of Qili County shivered with anger when he heard Su Jin's cries and Xue Ye's instigation.
She had heard about the "Prince's Burrito Set" that had been circulated in Beijing before. She was very surprised and a little angry when she asked her father and brother, but they smiled lightly and said that it was just a joke.
Her father also told her not to take it seriously, and that this was her brother's matter, so don't get involved.
The head of Jili County didn't take it seriously.
The Lord of Jili County himself is not very bright-minded and has soft ears. When others poke him, he will take the lead and charge into the battle for others.
As for why she charged into battle and the consequences of charging into battle, she never thought about it.
Therefore, among the royal relatives, the head of Jili County is a "wonder".
Once, the head of Yangxu County did not like Juqu Qingshan, the daughter of Juquyan, the Minister of Household Affairs.
Mainly because of jealousy, at a palace banquet, everyone was shocked when Juqu Qingshan sang "High Mountains and Flowing Waters"!
There is no harm without comparison. Yangxu County Master also plays the piano, but he can play it before Juqu Qingshan.
After listening to Ju Qu Qingshan's performance, she felt that she could play like cotton!
However, there were a total of five people playing the piano and performing at that time, and the father and brother were both very prominent, so no one else thought much of it.
Only the head of Yangxu County felt that he had lost his position, so he encouraged the head of Linli County and said:
"Look at that Juqu Qingshan, how can she be so good at pretending? She doesn't take our royal family seriously at all. Look, she doesn't even come to say hello to you!"
The county magistrate of Jili County was stupidly interested in watching the singing and dancing, and had little knowledge of the piano. He didn't pay any attention to who played well and who didn't play well.
Do you think that anyone who dares to show off his talents in public can be too bad? Yangxu County Lord’s is actually pretty good.
But when County Master Yangxu persuaded him like this, he immediately felt that it made sense.
So, after the banquet, the head of Jili County went to find trouble!
As a result, they met the third prince and Juquyan’s son Juqubeitang!
Juqu Beitang is the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army and has a good relationship with the third prince.
And the most embarrassing thing is that the Lord of Qili County loves the third prince!
Juqu Qingshan dared to use her talent to overwhelm County Master Yangxu on such an occasion, and she had two skills.
There is nothing he can do when facing the head of Jili County alone. With different identities, there is nothing he can do. The seventh-grade county magistrate may be able to struggle when he sees a first-grade official. The seventh-grade magistrate is also a "rank".
The Lord of Qili County has "good character", but he has no "good character" at all.
It's like a little fox meeting a big wild boar, it's absolutely one-sided.
Juqu Qingshan saw the third prince and her brother from a distance, and originally planned to make excuses or run away.
At this time, he quickly transformed into a "little white rabbit", "plopped" and knelt down in front of County Lord Jili, grabbed the hand of County Lord Jili, and cried loudly and sadly:
"County Lord, County Lord Qili, please spare me!"
Then, he grabbed the hand of County Lord Jili, and with the face of County Lord Jili in a circle,
Slap yourself hard in the face!
Naturally, the Lord of Jili County was speechless.
Although he could not be punished for beating and scolding the female officials at will in the palace, the label of "unreasonable, rude and domineering", or even "ferocious and cruel" was firmly nailed to the head of Qili County!
Qi Li originally didn't take his brother seriously when he saw him, so he naturally stopped thinking about it.
But today, Aunt Su Jin from the Marquis of Huai'an Mansion cried out, making her suddenly feel that the situation was very serious.
The head of Jili County remembered that his mother-in-law had arranged for his brother to go on a blind date with several noble girls from aristocratic families.
Her brother always pushed back and blocked her, which was strange to her.
Could it be that my brother was really confused by these two sisters from the Ji family?
No, Ji Ning lives in Geke, she must save her brother!
"Let's go! Go to "Good Neighbor" and teach those two girls a lesson!" The Lord of Jili County suddenly stood up.
"County Lord, no!" Xue Ye and Su Jin said anxiously.
Xue Yeye stepped forward and helped the Lord of Jili County sit down slowly and said:
"County Lord, why did you hurt your relationship with the Crown Prince for those two bitches?"
Su Jin also said:
"County Master, now the Crown Prince is deceived by two foxy girls, and the people don't know that they are of bad character. They only think that the County Master is bullying others. Once these two complain to the Crown Prince again, won't it mean that you are not pleasing to you both inside and outside?"
The Lord of Jili County lost his mind after hearing this:
"Then what should we do? Let them run rampant?"
Xue Ye and Su Jin looked at each other with pride in their eyes.
Su Jin knelt and took two steps forward with a smile on her face and said:
"County Master, the slave family has a plan, why don't you listen to it?"
In the Marquis of Huai'an, Aunt Mu had a cold face. Listening to Aunt Xu's intention, she was pondering in her heart.
Prior to this, Su Jin also sent someone to ask Madam for the deed of renouncement of Lonicera.
He said that it was Hong Xianglin who injured Lonicera after all.
Su Jin also felt that she couldn't bear it. Originally, she wanted to settle the three maids properly, but the other two maids' contracts were in the hands of your aunt, so she couldn't ask for them.
So I planned to take Lonicera's deed of betrayal.
Su Jin said she planned to find a good family for Lonicera.
Mother Mu actually didn't quite believe what Su Jin said.
However, Su Jin had always been disrespectful to his wife before, and this time he acted in a lowly manner, which greatly benefited Yang and Aunt Mu.
Just a maid, if she bumps into her master, she will be beaten to death.
Now Su Jin said that she would treat this maid well and find a good place for her. In fact, she and Yang really had no reason not to agree.
But at that time, when Yang was about to hand over the deed of betrayal to Su Jin, the eldest lady Liuli asked:
"Then how does Aunt Su plan to deal with this maid? I would like to hear it. After all, when I enter Chen Guogong's mansion in the future, I am afraid that I will encounter similar things. I also want to see how my mother and aunt at home are dealt with. I also It’s good to learn from.”
Su Jin didn't expect Liuli to directly ask about the measures to resettle Lonicera.
Where is Su Jin's resettlement method? She actually wanted to pretend to treat Lonicera for a few days after taking Lonicera's bond of sale.
Then, Lonicera japonica will be "unfortunate to endure" and "severely injured" and die.
After Rendong died, she would give her family some pension, and that would be all. Su Jin didn't even think about saving Rendong.
When Liuli asked, Su Jin was immediately speechless. But Su Jin reacted quickly after all, and immediately said to Liuli with a smile on her face,
"Mama Liu has a distant nephew who is about the same age as Lonicera. There are several acres of thin farmland at home. The slave family thinks this is a good match and wants to marry Lonicera to her."
After hearing this, Liuli's eyes turned slightly cold and she smiled slightly:
"There are so many maids in Aunt Su's Kejiju. Since Aunt Liu's nephew is as good as you said, why didn't Aunt Su marry one of her maids instead of marrying one of her maids? If we marry the seriously injured Lonicera, wouldn’t this harm Grandma Liu’s nephew?”
Liuli ignored Su Jin's surprise and continued:
"Even if Aunt Su wanted to take care of the honeysuckle, she shouldn't have tricked Grandma Liu's nephew. Wouldn't that hurt Grandma Liu's heart?"
Su Jin was stunned for a moment. After all, it was Liuli who was questioning her, and she didn't dare to contradict him.
Liuli turned to Yang and said,
"Mother, several maids are currently recuperating in Danguiyuan. It is not appropriate to move or do anything at this time. My daughter heard that the sisters of the Ji family have comforted the three of them at home. If we do this By marrying off Lonicera in such a hasty manner, doesn’t it mean that my Huai’an Marquis’ Mansion is so cold? If my daughter marries to Chen Guogong’s Mansion in the future, she will also be looked down upon by the people in Chen Guogong’s Mansion.”
Yang suddenly felt justified and waited for Su Jin to exit. Liuli said with some worry:
"Mother, Aunt Su is a sinister person, please be careful. When Xiang Lin failed to tease the maids, he became so angry that he beat them almost to death. If the censor knew about such cruel behavior, he would probably bring disaster to the Hou Mansion. My daughter thought, I'm afraid your aunt or Miss Ji will come and ask for Lonicera's body deed, so I'll just give it to them."
Seeing Yang's hesitation, Liuli sighed and said:
"If the mother really doesn't want to give the osmanthus garden, just give the honeysuckle to the daughter. Quan Dang, you have done some good deeds for your daughter and brother! Mother, now, the Ji sisters have made friends with the prince, and they are also helping the Dali Temple. I hope my mother won't do anything wrong. The Ji sisters hold too many prejudices. Apart from making Aunt Su happy, it has no meaning for mother and daughter. "
Aunt Xu was used to Aunt Mu's cold face and was not angry. She just smiled and said:
"Mom, please tell me that I got the Lonicera Deed today. Your aunt and the two young ladies from the Ji family will be grateful to my wife. If I don't give it, Aunt Su won't be able to thank my wife. Why not make a good relationship?"
Aunt Mu said calmly:
"It's not like the Hou Mansion can't afford to support a few patients."
Aunt Xu said hurriedly:
"Of course I can afford it! To be honest, our aunt just wants to make the two girls of the Ji family feel better, and it's all in their minds. The sisters of the Ji family feel that the maids have been hurt by them, and want to make up for it. I'm here to express my gratitude. Madam, I beg you for mercy. Don’t forget, Aunt Su was the proudest and the most gloating after the eldest son disappeared."
Aunt Mu looked at Aunt Xu, with a smile on her lips. I was very pleased, as the young lady expected.
Although the eldest young master is no longer here, the eldest lady is sober, resourceful and calm, and is just as generous as the men.
