"Have you figured it out and want to live a good life with the Kong family? I've told you before, how can Aunt Gu, with her background, be compared to the Anxin Marquis Mansion..."
At this point, the old lady paused and said, "Although Mrs. Kong is a shameful person, her two sons-in-law are still pretty good."
One thing that the old lady knew clearly was that her son's rapid rise to the position of Prime Minister was related to the two sons-in-law of Anhou Mansion, especially the second son-in-law, Prince Huai'an.
"No matter what Mrs. Kong is, she is still your head wife. You are now the left prime minister. You can't always let your aunt come out for entertainment and other things in the future. What's the big deal? It makes people look down on you," the old lady advised. road.
"That's what mother said." Jiang Xuncheng said casually, his brows furrowing even more tightly. Today's matter... was beyond his expectation, and he didn't think through many things.
The old lady nodded and called a servant to inform Kong that he would enter the palace tomorrow.
Looking back, he saw that Jiang Xuncheng was still distracted and said: "That's it for today. You are tired today, so go and rest first!"
Jiang Xuncheng stood up, saluted the old lady, turned around and left.
After walking a few steps, I thought about Aunt Gu and came back: "Mom, Aunt Gu and Linglong are still in the Buddhist hall. It's getting late now, so let them go back and rest!"
The old lady slammed the table: "Your eldest daughter made a fool of herself today. Her clothes were torn when she played Cuju, which made people laugh."
"What's going on?" Jiang Xuncheng was stunned.
He really didn't pay attention to this matter before, and it was the same as not hearing it.
The old lady then told Jiang Xuncheng the story again, and specifically said that the jewelry Mrs. Kong gave to Jiang Jinxin were all fake, but they were sent pretending to be real gold.
"Mrs. Kong really doesn't know etiquette. I asked Mrs. Kong to have less contact with Anxinhou's Mansion in the future. Anxinhou's Mansion is of little use anyway. At most, you can have more contact with the Duke's Mansion." After saying this, the old lady said disapprovingly, "As for that big girl of yours, it's really embarrassing. You know that this dress was sent by Anxin Houfu, but you still have to wear it. If you can't put it on, you squeeze it hard, and the dress is stretched and torn."
"Can't Linglong wear the clothes Mrs. Kong sent her?" Jiang Xuncheng's eyebrows were knotted.
"Isn't this an obvious thing? Can Jin Xin's body shape be the same as Linglong's? Linglong is two years older than Jin Xin, and these two years are the two years when the figure is the most visible. How can it be the same? I really don't know how Aunt Gu taught her My daughter, she has raised a daughter to be so petty and petty, she can even do things like forcing clothes on her."
The old lady said disdainfully.
"Is there... any misunderstanding here?" Jiang Xuncheng didn't believe it.
"Is there any misunderstanding? It's just that you, the eldest daughter, have a narrow vision and don't see good things in others. You know that someone else's mother-in-law specially customized it, but you try to wear it. It's not just Aunt Gu's face, but also our whole family. The government has lost all face and even mine, thinking that I treated the concubine harshly and only made new clothes for the legitimate daughter, not her."
The old lady mocked.
"Mother..." Jiang Xuncheng wanted to say something else.
The old lady interrupted him impatiently: "Okay, you go back and rest first. The mother and daughter will kneel down in the temple today, and then let them out tomorrow. You have spoiled them so much on weekdays." You know, one of them is a concubine and the other is a concubine, do you really think you can step on the faces of the Kong family and their daughter?"
"Although I will ask Kong to remedy this matter tomorrow, I'm afraid there will still be some gossip. If you don't punish them, if outsiders find out, they can only say that you are a rebellious prime minister who can't even clean up a backyard. , how can you help the emperor manage this world?"
Although the old lady came from a poor family, she was the daughter of a scholar. She had been able to read and write since she was a child. Jiang Xuncheng's first enlightenment was this old lady. In some aspects, he really couldn't compare to the old lady, especially the old lady's reasoning. .
Today's matter was not only the mistake of Aunt Gu and her daughter, but also the matter of the Sixth Prince. Jiang Xuncheng had no intention of arguing with the old lady. Seeing the old lady's insistence, after thinking about it, he stopped interceding and went directly to his study.
The matter is not settled yet, he still has to go to the study to do some work.
This matter is troublesome...
Early the next morning, the carriage from the palace came over. Not only did Luo Fei want to see Kong, but she also wanted to see Jiang Jinxin.
The mother and daughter said goodbye to the old lady, got on the carriage in the palace, and left Jiang Mansion all the way to the palace gate!
On the carriage, Jiang Jinxin touched her sleeves. There were several items she had specially prepared there. One item was necessary, and a few others were not useful. After leaving the palace, she had to go to an important place...
On the path behind them, they almost met Aunt Gu and her daughter.
Each person was supported by two servants. After kneeling all night, the two of them could hardly walk. Aunt Gu had never suffered such a great injustice since she entered the Jiang Mansion.
Seeing the Kongs and their daughters dressed up beautifully and leaving, Aunt Gu showed hatred in her eyes and gritted her teeth.
"Mom!" Jiang Linglong also saw it and looked at the backs of Kong's mother and daughter with jealousy.
"Go back and rest first." Aunt Gu said through gritted teeth.
The servants helped them back to their aunt's yard.
Although Aunt Gu lives in not the main courtyard, it is still a large courtyard, and it is quite close to Jiang Xuncheng's residence, even closer than the Kong family.
She didn't originally belong to this yard. When she moved in, she moved a place for herself. Although the old lady didn't agree, with Jiang Xuncheng here, Aunt Gu finally moved here.
The mother and daughter freshened up and had breakfast, and then they felt like they were alive again. Aunt Gu waved her hand, and everyone retreated.
"Mom, what should I do?" Jiang Linglong asked impatiently.
Aunt Gu's face was as gloomy as water. Yesterday was supposed to be the moment when she climbed to the top, but in the end she had accidents one after another.
"Mom, it's Jiang Jinxin, it must be Jiang Jinxin." Jiang Linglong gritted her teeth and said, among all the people, she still recognized Jiang Jinxin.
"Let this matter go for now." Aunt Gu said coldly.
"Mom!" Jiang Linglong became anxious and screamed.
"Let it go first. It's not that I don't care. How can this be done if Mrs. Kong wants to stay in the house! First, I have to drive Mrs. Kong away. I have been in charge of her for so long. Now she wants to come back and she actually lets her go. Why should I give her the power of management?" Aunt Gu has already heard that Kong will no longer go to Zhuangzi this time.
"Mom, go ahead and tell your father... let her go back, let her go back right away!" Jiang Linglong cursed angrily, "Take Jiang Jinxin away too, you are a bunch of troublemakers."
Thinking of what I had just heard from the servants that the Kong family and their daughter actually went into the palace to see Luo Fei, I became even more jealous. She took Aunt Gu's hand and said, "Mom, ask father to drive them away. Drive them away immediately. This palace This is our family, father, eldest brother, aunt and me, we are the real family, who are they?"
"Linglong, don't worry! If she wants to stay...it depends on whether she can stay!" Aunt Gu sneered,
"What do you mean, mother?" Jiang Linglong's eyes lit up.
"Let her take care of the middle feed first!"
