"Second Miss, the old lady invites you to come in." The curtain was raised, and a maid greeted outside.
Jiang Jinxin entered the room holding a vase.
The biological mother of Jiang Xuncheng, the Prime Minister of the Left, was sitting inside. She was wearing a mandarin with a blessing pattern and a horse-faced skirt with dark green and gold edges. Her kind eyes showed a certain nobility of looking forward to her old age.
Seeing Jiang Jinxin come in, he smiled kindly and waved to her: "Why did you go so long? Where is Linglong?"
"Grandma! Something happened to the eldest sister." Jiang Jinxin handed the vase to a maid, her eyebrows slightly frowned.
"What happened?" The old lady was surprised.
"Sister said she was going to the lake to see fish, but she slipped and fell into the lake." Jiang Jinxin said lightly.
"Why are you so naughty? What's going on now?" The old lady frowned displeased.
Very familiar words, it used to be about Jiang Jinxin.
"We've been rescued. It's just that it's cold. Sister may catch a cold. Grandma, please send someone to call the doctor." Jiang Jinxin said solemnly.
"Come here, go and call the doctor." The old lady said loudly.
A woman took the mission, turned around and ran out.
"Grandma, could someone want to harm the eldest sister?" Jiang Jinxin's eyes flickered and he looked towards the direction where his mother-in-law left, with a look of uneasiness and fear.
"What should I say?" The old lady's face darkened.
"I don't know... I just find it strange! Didn't people sweep that place in the past? When my eldest sister and I called for help, it took a long time for a woman to come. Are there very few people in that place? And..."
Jiang Jinxin hesitated to speak.
"And what?" the old lady asked eagerly, her originally kind face looking a bit gloomy.
"That place is actually not close to the lake. Why did the eldest sister's feet suddenly slip and slide into the water... How could she fall into the water so coincidentally, and there was no one around to save her? How could she almost fall into the water? Something big happened." Jiang Jinxin looked suspicious and took the initiative to provoke such a topic.
In the last life, Aunt Gu and Jiang Linglong didn't mention this topic because they were afraid that their hands and feet were dirty; in this life, she took the initiative to bring up this topic. She was not afraid of investigating. It was Aunt Gu and her daughter who had done something secretly. .
The old lady in front of her is her grandmother. On the surface, she seems to be very strict with rules. She seems to be on her mother's side and pays attention to the distinction between concubines and concubines. In fact, what she cares about most is her son's career. Anything that is not good for her son. , will immediately become ruthless.
Jiang Jinxin will never forget that after her mother fainted on her knees, it was this kind old lady who asked her to lie on the ground and refused to let anyone help her back, saying that her mother was too delicate and would have to continue kneeling when she woke up.
It was such a cold day that my mother was woken up by the cold after she fainted, and then she was continued to be forced to kneel...
She dragged her sick body over and knelt down to beg her. Blood was pouring from her forehead where she knocked her head. She even asked people to help her up with a kind face, saying that her mother had made a mistake and she had to be punished. This was also the intention of the palace. Who could I can’t disobey it! The punishment must be satisfactory to the nobles in the palace.
If others don't know it, how can the old lady not know that this spring banquet is clearly organized by Aunt Gu, and the mother just has a name, so why should the mother be pushed out if something goes wrong?
If it hadn't been made worse by repeated attacks, my mother would not have passed away in a few days.
Jiang Jinxin was glad that she was reborn. She was reborn when she was thirteen years old. The Spring Banquet of the Prime Minister's Mansion had not yet been held, the Sixth Prince had not yet had trouble outside the walls of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the palace had not angered the Prime Minister's Mansion, and her mother had not yet been raped by her father. It's not too late to take on this matter!
"Do you think...it's because of your father?" The old lady was startled and responded quickly, "Tell me about it!"
"Grandma, I don't know... I just feel strange. With my eldest sister's temperament, she can't be so close to the lake, let alone slippery. It's already spring and there's no ice on the lake. Why are my feet slippery? It happens to be at the stamping entrance. The most important thing is that this house was newly given and we only moved in a few months ago."
Jiang Jinxin said respectfully and submissively.
Every word leads in that direction.
Many of the servants in the newly moved house were newly bought, so it's impossible to say that someone put people in there.
"Come here, go check it out." The old lady's expression changed drastically. This matter sounded very strange.
Another woman took the order.
"Grandma, do you want to tell father to be more careful?" Jiang Jinxin suggested thoughtfully.
The old lady nodded heavily: "What you are saying is that you need to remind your father that now that your father is the head of the officials, more and more people are staring at him. Every word and deed may cause trouble."
In her heart, the old lady felt that this matter had something to do with her son's political opponent, most likely another prime minister.
"Grandma, what about the spring banquet the day after tomorrow?" Jiang Jinxin asked again.
"It's okay. After your mother comes, the whole government will investigate and see if there is anything wrong with anyone or anything. All will be dealt with severely." The old lady said sternly.
"Grandma, do you want Aunt Gu to check now? I'm afraid it's too late for mother to return home."
"No, your mother has to be involved in such a major matter for the whole government. No matter how powerful Aunt Gu is, she is just a concubine. Is it possible that she can be compared to your mother?"
The old lady shook her head, stretched out her hand and patted Jiang Jinxin's hand gently. She looked like she paid the most attention to her concubine, and said sincerely: "Your mother is the real Mrs. Zuo Xiang, and she will never change."
Jiang Jin sneered in his heart, if the Jiang family paid attention to the rules, her mother would not have died.
It is obviously the most unruly place, but yet it always acts like it has rules. If it really followed the rules, would it send an illegitimate child born from an illegitimate wife to its mother to be adopted as an adopted son?
Later, a cousin was arranged for this outer room to enter the Jiang Mansion.
It was the old lady who came forward and said that the reason why my mother had nothing to do after being married for a year was that not only did she have to raise a son, but she also had to keep concubines for her son, so that she could show her dignity and decency as a married woman.
So Aunt Gu entered the Jiang Mansion naturally.
rule? There are no rules in this house!
A group of filthy people, but they insist on claiming to be the cleanest!
"Grandma, let Aunt Gu check it out first. Aunt Gu will definitely be angry if the eldest sister falls into the lake. It won't be good if grandma gets into trouble later."
Jiang Jinxin said with an unchanged expression.
"What is there to cause trouble for? She is asked to take care of the affairs of the house, but it is so useless. Linglong almost got into trouble. What can she say about an aunt who is in charge of things?"
Perhaps she was irritated by what Jiang Jinxin said, so the old lady scolded unhappily.
She really looked down on Aunt Gu. If her son hadn't begged her, and for the sake of her smart grandson, she would never have let Aunt Gu enter the house.
The Gu family was not to his liking, and the Kong family was also useless. Instead of presiding over the affairs of state properly in the palace, he went to a village outside the city to recuperate. There was no trace of filial piety.
Another point is that there are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is not having a descendant. Kong’s lack of sons is the greatest form of unfilial piety! Even Aunt Gu can't compare to this.
However, the granddaughter in front of me made the old lady very happy. She was very pretty despite her age, and she was very dignified in everything she said and did. She was a true lady of the family. With her talent and beauty, she could marry well in the future. It will be of great benefit to your son’s career!
"Old madam, old madam, you have to make the decision for me. The second girl wants to kill the eldest girl!" A cry came from outside, followed by the sound of footsteps.
The old lady suddenly turned back, her face as gloomy as water!
coming! A cold smile appeared in Jiang Jinxin's eyes, and it came as soon as it came. She had been waiting for a long time, and some things should be settled...
