The drama of recognition is over.
Wu Qianqian reluctantly followed the British father-in-law and her siblings back home. Butler Wu saw her off with tears in her eyes, no one was there, and she was crying so hard.
The old lady no longer looked moved, but scolded her with displeasure.
"You almost offended the British lady-in-law. You're such a fool. It's an honor for you to have your daughter. Why are you so stupid!"
Butler Wu turned pale after being scolded, and the old lady left angrily.
"Ling'er, come back with me."
Lu Qingling followed the old lady back to the courtyard, while Butler Wu went to Si Ning's courtyard to reply.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Butler Wu knelt down directly.
"Thank you madam for your kindness. Both my servant and Qianqian will remember your kindness forever."
Si Ning glanced at him lightly, but did not ask him to get up immediately, but replied coldly.
"I don't need anyone to remember how good I am, as long as you remember that you are doing things for me."
What she wants is loyalty, not those illusory favors.
The reason why she helped the Wu family and her daughter was just because she had no one to help, and she wanted to achieve some good results.
No one knows if there will be an unlucky day. She doesn't ask for help at that time, just don't step on her.
Butler Wu showed his loyalty again, and Si Ning let him get up.
"Go back and tell your daughter that the stage has been set up for her. Whether it can go as she wishes depends on her own destiny."
Si Ning couldn't help with what happened next, and he wouldn't help either.
She finally had a peaceful life, and she didn't want to cause any more trouble.
Butler Wu repeatedly promised that he would tell Wu Qianqian not to let her mess around.
Then he said some words of loyalty to protect the Lord before retreating.
As soon as he left, Qiu Ju stepped forward to serve him and asked in confusion.
"Madam, what is going on? Why did Wu Qianqian become the niece of the British princess?"
Qiu Ju felt that this matter had something to do with his wife. A few days ago, her wife went to the British Duke's mansion, and then the British Duke's wife came to the door.
But Qiu Ju didn't know how her wife arranged it specifically.
She's not talkative, she's just curious.
Si Ning intended to cultivate her and did not hide it from her.
"Lu Zhiyuan values profit. He wanted Wu Qianqian, but he was far from letting her in. Wu Qianqian's status was too low, and Wu Qianqian knew this, so even if she was pregnant, she didn't dare to say it, but asked me here."
"She wants Lu Zhiyuan to marry her willingly. This requires her to have the ability to seduce Lu Zhiyuan. Her identity is a good breakthrough point..."
Si Ning also told Qiu Ju that she didn't know many wives in the capital, and that Mrs. Jing'an's status was too important for Wu Qianqian to afford.
The other ladies are not close to Si Ning and may not be willing to help her with this favor. The British father-in-law is just right.
"Although I have only dealt with the British princess a few times, the time at Fuyuan Temple, she did not hesitate to offend the third prince, but also argued for me, which shows that she is trustworthy, so I begged her and did not need to give anything to Wu Qianqian. The status is too high, as long as the bait thrown out is enough for the Lu family to take the bait."
Everything was as Si Ning expected, the Lu family was fooled.
Mrs. Lu saw huge benefits, and she would let Wu Qianqian recognize her ancestors no matter what.
Even if there is something fishy about this matter, even if Wu Qianqian is not Mrs. Qian's natal niece, the old lady will make it come true.
But Si Ning didn't expect Lu Qingling to be involved.
"How are Lu Qingling and the third prince doing lately?"
"There is no connection. The third prince has never been looking for her."
Si Ning nodded and understood Lu Qingling's anxiety.
"This is a case of seeking medical treatment indiscriminately, but the old lady won't really do anything to her."
What Si Ning said is absolutely true.
The old lady called Lu Qingling into the room and just scolded her lightly.
Lu Qingling knelt in front of the old lady and cried, "Grandma, I really think about it for the sake of the family. I didn't think too much, and I didn't want to hide it from you. I am a child of the Lu family. Even if there is any situation in the future, I will be the same." Remember your identity."
The old lady was just angry, not to criticize her harshly.
She pulled Lu Qingling to stand up and touched her hair distressedly.
"Good boy, grandma is very angry. Now all her hopes are on you. Now it's okay. You helped the British princess settle a trouble. They owe you a favor. You have to use this to ask for a good one." Marriage, you know?”
Lu Qingling nodded, "Grandma, I know."
Old lady, "Grandma knows that you have an idea. In the future, you will go to the British Duke's Palace more. Although it is not as good as the Jing'an Marquis Palace, the old British Duke and the Emperor have a life-long relationship, and the status of the British Duke's Palace will not be affected." Even if you waver, you won’t miss a good opportunity.”
The old lady also wanted Lu Qingling to marry into the British government, but Lu Qingling felt that the old lady's vision was too narrow.
If she wants to use this kindness to fight for greater opportunities, the British princess should be willing.
Lu Qingling was thinking about it, but forgot about another thing.
The adulterous affair between Wu Qianqian and her father Lu Zhiyuan!
Soon, the news that Wu Qianqian was the niece of the British princess spread in the city. People left the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion, and those who wanted to know the inside story came to the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion to inquire about the news.
Si Ning always closed the door to thank guests, not only now, but also in the past, so people who didn't come to him went to the second room.
Some ladies asked Li Xutang about Wu Qianqian's affairs. Li Xutang only found out about this and felt unhappy.
Why did Si Ning get all the good things?
It's crazy that even a lost person can be found in their yard.
However, this was a good opportunity to contact various governments. Instead of pushing people away, Li Xutang enthusiastically answered their questions.
Her patience won her back some favor, and the ladies no longer rejected her.
In addition, I heard that her daughter Lu Qingling helped find this person, and I had a bit more respect for her that I didn't have before.
For the first time, Li Xutang felt that he was taken seriously, and he was so happy.
She told Lu Zhiyuan what those ladies said, and Lu Zhiyuan was thoughtful.
"Those ladies value the British Duke's niece very much?"
"Why are you so stupid? The British princess's natal family is also the home of the old minister. Although no one in the family is serving in the court now, how do you know that no one will make a difference in the future?"
"After all, the British government is backing me. Don't you know? The British government is quite mean to the British government."
These were what she heard from the ladies, and she told Lu Zhiyuan.
Lu Zhiyuan was silent. Li Xutang thought that he didn't like what happened between their wives, so he didn't say anything more, and happily went to find Lu Qingling.
Si Ning sat in the courtyard, and Qiu Ju would report to her what happened in the house every day.
Si Ning would not say anything most of the time and would just let her continue to stare.
It was not until this day that Si Ning spoke.
"Tell Butler Wu that it's time to close the net and let Wu Qianqian take action."
