Seeing Shen's mother being frightened, Mrs. Xie smiled lovingly, then waved her hand and said: "That's all, this kind of thing doesn't scare you anymore. You are already old. If I scare you,
Anyway, what should I do?"
Mother Shen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I will serve you for the rest of my life! I can't do any harm to you until you live a long life."
Older people usually cannot hear such words, and the same goes for Mrs. Xie. Her eyes shed a little tears when she heard this.
"It is said that children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, but after all, they are all descendants of oneself. Until the day when you close your eyes, you can really feel at ease."
Mother Shen knew she had said the wrong thing, but she didn't dare to say anything else.
He quickly changed the subject with a smile, "Old Madam, don't think about this anymore, let's tell this old slave what to do next! Looking at what Old Madam Fang means today, I think she and Old Madam are thinking of the same thing.
Originally, this slave thought that she might not be willing to get involved in such a thing because she seemed to live so transparently. But now I realize that this is not the case. Madam, you are more accurate in judging people."
"You don't have to flatter me. The reason why you can't see it is because you are not the same as us. When we were born, Daqi didn't exist yet! We even watched Emperor Taizu bring this great empire to the world with our own eyes.
I typed it down and watched it gradually get to what it is now.
The blood of many people has been exchanged for the prosperity and peace of future generations. No one cherishes our current life more than us. Do you think she can really be that comfortable in the south?
If we really pursue the life of a hermit, how could we send our grandchildren to the capital? People like us! The heart will never die, it’s just that the height we want to reach is different."
Mother Shen seemed to understand, but with her status, she didn't need to know too much about such things.
She just needs to know how to do it.
"It won't be long before she posts again. This time, remember who she invited, and then quietly ask someone to go out and find out. Who are the children and nephews behind these people?"
Yamen, who do you interact with more often on weekdays?
And if my guess is correct, there won’t be only one such gathering in the future, so you have to be aware of it every time, and I will need to sort it out carefully later."
Mother Shen knew the seriousness of this matter and immediately expressed her position: "Don't worry, old lady, this slave is well aware of such things, and you will never make a mistake."
After saying that, she still couldn't help but remind her: "Where are the gentlemen..."
This incident really touched Mrs. Xie's mind.
What happened today was her own decision, but that didn't mean her three sons would agree.
She thought for a while and said softly: "In the evening, I will ask your third master to come over. As for your second master, I will keep it secret from him for the time being. The other thing is to find out when your eldest master will come back."
If there is no reliable information, send a message to the camp, saying that it was me who said it, and that I want to ask him to come back and have a look, saying that I haven't seen anyone else for a long time."
Mother Shen agreed one by one, and the old lady added, "Don't let your eldest lady know in advance, otherwise with her temperament, there will be a lot of relatives and friends visiting the house."
Speaking of this, Mother Shen couldn't help but laugh, "Madam, there's nothing we can do about it. Just like what people said today, our eldest young master is now in his twenties and is so young and promising. He hasn't gotten married yet. No.
It is said that as elders, we are anxious, and people outside are prone to gossip.
Don’t you see, the young prince-in-law of the British Duke’s family is already married, and just because he left the bride behind and went out, those rumors that had been stopped have started up again.”
Mrs. Xie was silent for a long time before she said: "Although he and Brother Lang are both civil and military, in the end he is the eldest grandson of this family.
Your second master is a capable man, and Brother Lang is also like his father. His future achievements may not necessarily be lower than his father's. It's a pity that only your eldest master is the only one. In this family, I still have to prefer bigger houses.
When I close my eyes in the future, the three brothers will split up and it will be up to Brother Wen whether the eldest brother can get up. The situation in the government is unclear at the moment, and I think there will be changes in the next two years.
Brother Wen's marriage is very important, I have to make careful plans for him, it would be better to wait until everything is settled."
Mother Shen didn't expect that Mrs. Xie would actually have this idea. No wonder she loved the young master so much, but she didn't care much about his life-long events.
She quickly smiled and said: "The eldest young master always listens to you, old madam. As long as it is what you have in mind, the eldest young master can understand it."
Mrs. Xie's face no longer had the smile she had just now, and her whole face looked a little serious. She did not take over from Mother Shen, but fell into deep thought.
In fact, as Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Fang expected, it was impossible to hide this gathering.
After all, one is an old lady in the palace of the current chief minister, and the other is the mother's family of the fourth prince. Just showing the identities of these two people is already impressive, not to mention that this time many people have been invited.
An old feudal lord from a wealthy family.
So within two days, the news spread.
Old Mrs. Qi also made a special trip to the palace and complained bitterly to Jiang Shuhua, "Tell me, what do you mean, grandmother? You didn't even call me for such a thing?"
After all, our two families are also in-laws. Now that you are favored in the East Palace again, you may have to take the place of concubine when the new year comes. When His Highness ascends the throne in the future, you..."
Although Mrs. Qi was very flattering, she still had some sense of propriety and did not speak too clearly. However, the provocation in her words did not weaken at all.
"I don't know what the Xie family is planning to do, but because your grandfather offended His Highness some time ago, he has fallen into disgrace and is no longer qualified to be in the cabinet.
But the relationship between Beijing and China is originally a human relationship. I don’t know how to establish a relationship with others right now. Logically speaking, no matter what happens, I should look at your face. The two families can live together in harmony.
, leaving me like this is really shameful to me, and in the final analysis, it is also shameful to you."
Jiang Shuhua slowly plucked the floating leaves in the tea bowl, and smiled lightly when she heard the words: "If you ask me, grandma, don't seek such disapproval. If you don't say anything else, you are wrong to talk about me.
.
It's true that I recognize you as my grandmother, but the Xie family does not recognize me as their granddaughter. Not to mention that the Xie family seriously called me "Jiang Liangdi" when they met me!
People don’t think I’m grateful, so how can I connect the Xie Qi family together? So, if you really feel uncomfortable, you might as well go to the second wife and ask her what’s wrong with the old lady of the Xie family now?
Something happened."
Old Mrs. Qi never expected that she would eat such a soft nail at Jiang Shuhua's place today.
So I hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to say.
Jiang Shuhua yawned and said, "Grandma, what else do you have to do? Now I am in charge of everything in the palace. I really don't have much time to chat here."
This was actually an eviction order. Mrs. Qi was very annoyed, but she didn't dare to say anything. Instead, she could only lick her face and say with a smile: "It's just delaying your business. In fact, there is nothing else.
I just came to see you."
After Mrs. Qi left, Jiang Shuhua lowered her face and said, "What the hell, you actually have the nerve to come in front of me and confront your elders now!"
Mingyue quickly comforted her: "The old lady of the Qi family has always been so ignorant of propriety. Master, please don't get really angry."
Jiang Shuhua snorted coldly, then remembered, "But you should go check it out and see what's going on."
