Compared with her previous life, Concubine Kong is now calm and confident. She no longer has the panic and anger of her previous life, and she is desperate to seek justice for her sister.
Jiang Jin felt at ease. If her aunt calmed down, she would not be plotted. It was about her mother's body. If others didn't tell her, her aunt still had to tell her.
"The concubine is joking, this matter is just a misunderstanding." The old lady said with a smile.
"A misunderstanding cost my sister's life? This aunt in the house is so noble that even the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Xin'an House has to make way for her?" Concubine Kong said coldly.
"Concubine, what you said is wrong..."
"Is it wrong? Mr. Zuo Xiang thinks that now that he is the head of the officials, he can sit back and relax and do whatever he wants. Now he has reached the point where he wants to pamper his concubine and destroy his wife? This is throwing the face of Anxin Houfu into the Trampled on the ground?" Concubine Kong asked with a sneer, interrupting Mrs. Jiang rudely.
"Concubine Concubine, I have already discussed this matter with your father-in-law." Mrs. Jiang's face also darkened, and her anger suddenly increased. She glanced at Jiang Jinxin and wondered how Concubine Kong knew about her family affairs. Her little granddaughter Did Mrs. Kong say that?
"Old madam, my mother came to the government to tell me, but mother is mother, I am me, and I also represent the Huai'an County Prince's Palace."
As soon as Concubine Kong saw the old lady giving Jiang Jinxin a dirty look, she knew what she suspected, and she took the words away with a sneer.
The old lady choked for a moment, and came to the floor with a surge of anger. Is this going to be over...
Mrs. Kongtai wanted the benefits herself, but asked her second daughter to make trouble too.
"Mrs. Kongtai said that this matter ends here, and nothing like this will happen again in the future. Aunt Gu will go to the nunnery tomorrow to clean up and pray for blessings."
"Qingxiu? Just Qingxiu at this time? Is my sister's life only worth her Qingxiu?" Concubine Kong patted the table,
"What do you want Concubine Kong to do?" The old lady couldn't help but said coldly.
"Old madam, I don't blame you for this. You are an elder and you are old. Some things may not be so clear. I would like to ask Aunt Gu directly, is that possible?" Concubine Kong said.
Jiang Jinxin raised her eyes and looked at the old lady. In this life, because her mother was fine, her aunt did not lose her mind after all.
"Concubine, this matter is over!" the old lady said solemnly.
"Mother asked me to come over and have a look and ask more about this matter." Concubine Kong did not give in.
The old lady was silent for a moment, looked at Concubine Kong, and knew that it would be impossible not to see her today. She frowned and asked someone to call Aunt Gu over.
Aunt Gu didn't come quickly. She didn't come alone. She came with Jiang Linhan. When she heard that Concubine Kong was coming, Aunt Gu immediately panicked. Jiang Xuncheng was not in the house now, and the only one she could rely on was Jiang Linhan. She immediately Someone was sent to call Jiang Linhan over.
After entering the door, Jiang Linhan walked in front and Aunt Gu walked behind. The mother and son entered the main room.
Jiang Linhan first bowed to the old lady, and then bowed deeply to Concubine Kong, saying with great respect, "I've met my aunt."
"I don't dare to call you the eldest son's aunt." Concubine Kong said coldly, looking at Jiang Linhan with a cold smile.
"Aunt... what does this mean?" Jiang Linhan was confused. He looked at Concubine Kong and then at Jiang Jinxin, his eyes filled with disappointment. "Second sister... do you still misunderstand me now? What happened before was really true. It's just a misunderstanding, Aunt Gu sent someone here to deliver the message, but the people around me heard it wrong!"
"There is a misunderstanding on the left, and there is a misunderstanding on the right. Mr. Jiang is really Aunt Gu's good son. All of this is Aunt Gu's business."
Concubine Kong said sternly.
Jiang Linhan's face turned red: "Aunt, although Aunt Gu is only my father's concubine, she is also an elder in the house. I have to respect every elder."
"Respect?" Concubine Kong looked Jiang Linhan up and down, "Your aunt is so ill and you don't go to visit her. An aunt was called over for something, but you followed her uneasily? Could it be that Aunt Gu is you? My biological mother? Are you so worried? Mr. Jiang is really filial."
Concubine Kong sneered.
Without Jin'er, she wouldn't have thought so much. Now that she has connected the two people together, there is nothing she doesn't understand when she sees the two people appearing together.
My sister really raised this son in vain, he is a white-eyed wolf.
"I heard that my aunt was coming, so I came here to say hello."
Jiang Linhan said awkwardly.
"Concubine, Brother Han asked his father to ground him before. Although what he did before was a misunderstanding, a mistake is a mistake. You can't let it go like this." The old lady said.
It looked like a rebuke, but in reality he was explaining to Jiang Linhan.
Jiang Linhan reacted quickly and hurriedly lowered his head with shame on his face: "I'm really happy that my aunt is here. My mother is not in good health and is still ill, and my father doesn't allow me to visit. I'm really worried...but my father's fate is as big as God, I dare not disobey it.”
"Brother is not afraid of father's scolding now?" Jiang Jinxin looked at Jiang Linhan.
"I have secretly visited my mother before, but I dare not go in and disturb her from a distance. Now...now, now I really can't rest assured...Father can punish me if I want. I have been in the study these past few days, copying scriptures and praying for my mother. ." Jiang Linhan lowered his head and forcefully rounded off his words.
It sounds like it's very affectionate.
Jiang Jinxin looked at her coldly, fluttered her long eyelashes twice, and turned to Aunt Gu.
Compared with the past situation, Aunt Gu looked timid and lacked the power of the past.
"Aunt Gu, I heard that you found a woman to frame my sister?" Concubine Kong ignored Jiang Linhan and her eyes fell on Aunt Gu.
"Concubine, my... people discovered that the woman was very sneaky..." Aunt Gu whispered, biting her lip hard to suppress the anger in her heart.
Her own son, the noble son of the prime minister, actually forced Concubine Kong to this point. If she were the wife of the left prime minister, how could she allow Concubine Kong to be so presumptuous!
"Whose wife is this?" Concubine Kong asked.
"It's... she's from Madam's yard. I... didn't dare to dispose of it at will, so I sent it to the old lady." Aunt Gu said in a low voice.
"With all the manpower in the wife's yard, you dare to question a concubine?"
"I am... a person who is very sneaky when I meet this woman outside."
"Because she was sneaky, she sent it to the old lady, so she falsely accused my sister? My sister almost lost her life? Aunt Gu is really good at calculating!"
"Concubine, I don't know anything."
"Yes, I don't know anything, but I almost drove my sister to death. If I knew something else, I would have driven the entire Anxinhou Mansion to a dead end."
Thinking that something almost happened to her sister, Concubine Kong was so angry that her eyes were red and she stood up suddenly.
Aunt Gu was startled and subconsciously moved away from Jiang Linhan. Jiang Linhan gave her a surprised look. Aunt Gu felt inexplicably insulted and extremely ashamed and angry. She couldn't help but stand still and defended:
"My concubine...husband...Madam has been away all this time. I am in charge of everything in this house. Whenever you find someone in the courtyard, you must ask, it's not because of Madam."
"Ask me?"
"This is a matter of concubine status!" Aunt Gu insisted through gritted teeth. Her son was still watching. She could not show weakness too much or let her son look down upon her.
No matter how proud she had been in front of her son in the past, she would be so embarrassed now when Concubine Kong forced her to do so.
"A despicable concubine sent a woman with ulterior motives to the wife of the wife, and almost forced the wife to death. Is this also the responsibility of a despicable aunt like you?"
Concubine Kong retorted.
"The side concubine is a noble person. I heard that she is also in charge of affairs in the Huai'an County Prince's Mansion. Is it possible that she doesn't care about the servants around the Huai'an County Princess?"
The old lady frowned and glared at Aunt Gu, how dare she mock Concubine Kong's identity.
"Pah!" A heavy slap hit Aunt Gu on the face.
"Concubine..."
"Pa!" Another slap came with the backhand, and Concubine Kong almost used all her strength: "You despicable slave, how dare you mock me. Is this the rule of your prime minister's house?"
"Concubine...Mother, it's over!" The old lady couldn't sit still and said with a cold face.
Aunt Gu's ears were ringing, she was dizzy, her head was buzzing, she staggered, and fell heavily to the ground.
Jiang Linhan's face changed drastically, and he stepped forward with cold eyes. He stretched out his hand to block Aunt Gu: "Please... Auntie, please show mercy."
The sound seemed to come out of his mouth almost word by word.
The old lady couldn't sit still anymore, she stood up suddenly and walked towards Concubine Kong. Looking at the sinister look under her brows, Jiang Jinxin knew something was wrong. Did the old lady think that the situation was out of control and wanted to blackmail her aunt again?
I coughed heavily, now it depends on my aunt's performance...
"Show mercy? You, the eldest son, actually protect an aunt like this?" Concubine Kong sneered again and again, "I raised your aunt carefully and turned a blind eye, but you treat this aunt as a treasure. Okay, okay, you agree? The Mansion is really a well-behaved family, and I have seen the rules of the Prime Minister’s Mansion today.”
After saying that, he took another step forward and stretched out his hand as if to push Jiang Linhan's sleeve. Jiang Linhan subconsciously swung his hand outward. Concubine Kong became unsteady and fell forward.
Jiang Jinxin rushed forward and hugged Concubine Kong, her panicked voice trembling: "Aunt...mother, aunt, you...what's wrong with you?"
"The concubine fell down!"
"Quick, come here, Concubine Kong has fainted." Several maids and wives from the Huai'an County Prince's Mansion panicked, and they all rushed over. Some were holding them, and some were protecting Concubine Kong, glaring angrily. Jiang Linhan's.
"Master Jiang, even if our concubine beats your aunt in your house, you should not just throw our aunt out like this. You...you are trying to kill our concubine!"
The mother-in-law's high-pitched voice was sharp and trembling, "You...how can you do such a thing? Where is filial piety, where is dignity?"
In the crowd, Jiang Jinxin hugged Concubine Kong, wiped the "blood" on her lips with a handkerchief, and looked up at the old lady outside the crowd. The two of them looked at each other...
