"Ayan, do you still remember what you promised me when you took over the Chu family?"
After the old lady's vicissitudes of words fell, Chu Yan was silent for a long time.
"My child, remember." He said calmly: "I don't seek merit, but I seek no faults."
Just eight words were all the old lady's hopes for him, but his talent was indeed only slightly better than Chu Shun and Chu Gui.
Before Huating County Lord came in, he was relatively independent. But as Huating County Lord came in and gave birth to a son as outstanding as Chu Ling, the indecisive side of his character became increasingly exposed, and gradually developed into what he is today.
How it looks today.
The head of Huating County no longer loved him, probably because he realized that this man was no longer the same as when she first met him.
How high-spirited the eldest son of the Chu family was back then, how incompetent the eldest son of the Chu family is now. Time has smoothed his edges and faded away the halo of the eldest son of the Chu family. He is actually nothing.
The old lady looked at him calmly, her cloudy eyes unable to conceal her disappointment, "Then have you done it?"
Chu Yan lowered his head and shook his head in embarrassment, "I didn't do it."
Not only did he fail to maintain the status quo of the Chu family, he also made the Chu family into chaos. What he did as the head of the family was really incompetent.
Seeing that he was still honest and didn't quibble, the old lady's expression softened slightly, "The second and third bedrooms are very ambitious. It's understandable that you can't manage them, but Jiang Ya is just an insignificant little character. How could you be treated like this?"
I am so disappointed by such a scheme by a woman!"
These words were very heartbreaking, and Chu Yan felt quite ashamed after hearing them.
But did Jiang Ya really plot against him?
He has been the head of the Chu family for so many years, and countless women have fallen for him. How could he be so easily plotted by a mere Jiang Ya?
The reason why he fell in love with her was simply because he subconsciously wanted to escape and avoid today's farewell.
After leaving the capital, Chu Ling will embark on an official career, and may not return to the Chu family for many years. Qingqing has no ties with the Chu family, so naturally she will not come back to suffer. This woman who has always been disliked by him for being strong,
He should be happy to finally part ways with him, but why doesn't he even have the courage to face her?
"Everything is the child's fault." Chu Yan retracted his thoughts and admitted his mistake with a calm face, "I have already discussed Jiang Ya's side. If I allow her to stay in the Chu family, she will treat everything as normal.
That didn't happen."
"Is she willing to do this?" The old lady looked suspicious.
Chu Yan nodded, "I was so drunk last night that I didn't have the ability to do anything to her. Besides, if she really lost her innocence, she wouldn't be so calm as to find Chun Equinox to catch her."
"I see." The old lady understood that the other party just wanted to take a gamble, but had not really accepted Chu Yan psychologically. Chu Yan took advantage of this and negotiated terms with her.
"This woman is really greedy." The old lady sneered, "We have come to this point, and we are still reluctant to let go of A Ling."
"This shows that she really cares about A Ling." Chu Yan smiled nonchalantly.
At least she was better than that time. She occupied the position of the eldest mistress of the Chu family, but managed the business of the Huating County owner. She really didn't think about A Ling at all.
A good daughter-in-law should try every means to bring her parents-in-law together. How could anyone break them up like her?
The more Chu Yan thought about it, the more he felt resentful. He didn't notice that his subconscious thought that separation from the Huating County Lord was a very bad thing. He thought he didn't care at all, but in the end he cared more than anyone else, even when he expressed his anger, he didn't care.
Self-aware.
Seeing that he had a good impression of Jiang Ya, the old lady frowned and said, "Would you rather believe that a woman who plots against you treats A Ling sincerely than that the Spring Equinox is not as bad as you imagined?"
Chu Yan was stunned and turned his head unnaturally, "So what if she is a good person? What we need is a young lady who does everything properly, not a stupid woman who can only do things based on her conscience."
The old lady did not refute this point. The progress of the Spring Equinox was indeed too slow.
"It's okay to keep Jiang Ya." The old lady said calmly: "If someone forces her, she will always grow faster."
Seeing that she had revealed his intention, Chu Yan touched his nose and said nothing.
It's one thing that he hates the equinox, but a father can't bully his wife while his son is away. He still has some tolerance for this.
…
When she returned to her room at the Spring Equinox, she was so worried that she couldn't even eat because of this sudden change.
As soon as Chu Ling left, something like this happened to Jiang Ya. How will she explain to him when he comes back in the future?
Is it possible that Chu Ling would be so angry that he would strangle Jiang Ya to death if he told him directly that your carefully chosen shield changed his target and wanted to be your father's aunt?
Seeing her frowning face, Lu Tao persuaded her patiently: "Grandma, would you like to eat something first? Miss Jiang's matter cannot be settled in three or two days."
Now is the time when Chu Yan values her the most, and only a fool would hit the wall at this time. It is better to wait until their relationship fades away, and then find an excuse to send Jiang Ya away. This is the best way, but in this case, it will
There is no guarantee that Jiang Ya will come up with any crooked ideas during this time.
Shi Chunfen understood what she meant, but she was worried not only about Jiang Ya, but also about the old lady's expectations for her.
If this matter is not handled well, the old lady's disappointment in her will become even more severe. She really doesn't want to make her old lady sad anymore.
"How are the oriole and lark?" Shi Chunequin asked.
Lu Tao quickly replied: "Same as last time, Jiang Ya was drugged and locked up in the room. When we rushed to rescue them, they were still awake."
"Medicine again..." Shi Chunfen's face darkened, and he quickly came up with an idea, "Go and send someone to destroy Jiang Ya's medicine garden. From now on, she will not be allowed to grow any herbs in the Chu family, nor will she be allowed to grow any herbs in the Chu family."
When she buys medicine and brings it back to the house, all the medicinal materials in her house, no matter they are poisonous or not, will be searched out and burned. From now on, when she comes in and out of the house, she will be searched by her grandma to make sure she can't play any more tricks."
Without the medicinal materials, Jiang Ya is a useless person in the Chu family.
She was so naive before that she thought that the medicinal materials Jiang Ya carried with her were all for saving people.
If doctors have no benevolence, the medicine in their hands will be deadly poison.
Lu Tao received the order and went to do it quickly.
Shi Chunfen later heard that Jiang Ya had made a big fuss at Chu's house in order to save her medicine garden, and even tried to break into Chu Yan's yard to ask for help, but Chu Yan ignored her on the pretext of taking a nap and waited for her to rush away.
When I returned to my yard, the medicine garden had been burned to the ground.
That night, Shi Chunfen happily ate a whole bowl of rice.
