Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xie quickly waved her hands and said: "His sister's matter is still a confused matter, but business matters are more important. Let's get over the current busy schedule first and then talk about it!"
It's not that Mrs. Xie doesn't care about her daughter, she is really worried about things outside.
If Emperor Yufeng really gave up and passed away like this, the Xie family would not be able to be reused unless both sides relied on him.
But if Xie Yuncang stabilizes the cabinet at this time, even if the new emperor ascends the throne, he will have to obey the public. He will handle all government affairs properly as a deputy minister in the cabinet. What reason does the new emperor have to let him sit on the bench?
Mrs. Qi understood what Mrs. Xie meant, and she frowned and said, "It's not that I, as a sister-in-law, don't feel sorry for my sister-in-law. In this situation, it's really not suitable for my sister-in-law to talk about reconciliation.
If one of them makes a bad move and is read by the imperial censor, and someone catches the conversation, I don’t know what the outcome will be, especially when my daughter-in-law hears that both sides are eyeing the vacancy in the cabinet."
These words truly reached the old lady's ears, and she felt that someone had the same thoughts as her, so she became somewhat interested in talking.
"Hey, you don't know what kind of temper your sister-in-law is? When you came in, she wasn't married yet!"
"What mother said is wrong. My sister-in-law has always been the most sensible person. Although she is sometimes stubborn, she can always distinguish the priorities. I don't know what happened this time. She seems to be determined.
.”
The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze falling on Qi's face, "You mean someone is inciting Wen Yuan and Li?"
"My daughter-in-law doesn't dare to say anything now. If I say anything to her, the master will reprimand me again."
Speaking of this, how could the old lady not know that she was talking about Xie Songhua.
Even though the incident between the Qi family and Jiang Shuhua last time made the old lady consciously separated from Xie Songhua.
But it doesn't mean that she is willing to listen to Qi's arrangement of Xie Songhua.
So when he heard this, he couldn't help but said: "You are also her mother after all, why do you always target the third girl in everything?"
Mrs. Qi's heart still felt cold after hearing this, but this time she knew how to relent, and said calmly: "Don't blame me, mother. It's true that I don't get along with this girl. Even if I try to think carefully, it's hard to say anything."
Go everywhere.
What's more, although I can't treat her as my own daughter, she doesn't treat me as my mother or our family as her own!"
"What do you mean?"
The old lady's brows furrowed and her tone became a little serious. She stared at Mrs. Qi with a burning gaze and said, "I just said that you have improved a bit now, and now you are so unscrupulous. Are you saying that Princess Chen and
Don’t get along with your mother’s family?”
Mrs. Qi realized that she had said the wrong thing and said quickly: "Conscience of heaven and earth, mother, I didn't mean that. It was clearly..."
Halfway through his words, he refused to say any more.
The old lady had already heard the words, how could she let her pass him by lightly? She immediately said with a long face, "Don't pretend to be weird in front of me. I'm impatient to guess. If you want to say something, just make it clear now and turn around."
When the scorpion stings me, I won't pay any more attention to it."
Mrs. Qi was aroused by the old lady's words, and all her previously brewing emotions were gone.
But I also know the old lady’s temperament, and everyone in the house respects her. In most cases, the old lady really doesn’t need to give anyone much face.
So she gritted her teeth and simply lowered herself and bowed to Mrs.
I’m afraid I might break my mother’s heart.”
Hearing this pile of things being laid in front of her, Mrs. Xie only felt a pain in her head. Dangjie waved her hands and became impatient. Seeing this, Mr. Qi stopped elaborating and told Dangjie that one of her people accidentally discovered Xie Songhua.
My son told me everything.
He also repeatedly emphasized that he discovered it accidentally and had inquired carefully, so there was absolutely no way he could have made a mistake.
As he talked about it later, he saw that the old lady's face became darker and darker, and her voice became smaller and smaller. I don't know what the old lady's attitude is towards this discovery.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Because when Mrs. Qi was about to say something earlier, she had already dismissed everyone inside and outside, and now only the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were present.
Occasionally, there would be more leaking sounds, but it became more and more dull here.
In the end, it was Mrs. Qi who couldn't help it and said quickly: "Don't be angry, mother. My daughter-in-law really didn't know whether she should hide this matter or not. If mother gets angry because of this, it will be my fault.
In fact, it’s nothing. That couple only raised two more people in that house. Now that she is the princess, she can afford to support even two hundred people, not to mention two people..."
"Okay!" Old Madam Xie suddenly spoke, directly interrupting Mrs. Qi's words, her eyes already full of anger, "No wonder she seems to be a different person after getting married. It turns out that she has never changed herself from the beginning to the end.
Thank you family.
He actually took over the Jiang family couple! Jiang Shuhua is obsessed with escaping, but she is following him like a duck, she is really affectionate and righteous!"
This strange sarcasm made Mrs. Qi breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the old lady's reaction was similar to what she had guessed. She really couldn't accept Xie Songhua's rip-off.
But she still pretended to comfort her, "Don't be too angry, old lady. She comes from a small place after all. I don't know what it means to do such a thing. But although I am her biological mother, the relationship is so tense, so I can't
Discipline her, plus her current status, ugh..."
He sighed heavily afterwards, with a rather helpless tone.
"Send a message and ask your master to come down from the office and come to me."
When Mrs. Qi heard this, she quickly said: "Mom, don't be impulsive!"
Seeing the old lady looking over in confusion, Mrs. Qi quickly said: "Don't forget, mother, now that she is Princess Chen, she has many people who can be used by her! There were even Jinyi guards at Xiangshan Temple to take her back.
If I were to alert the snake, it would make her take precautions. It would not be as simple as transferring two people. In the eyes of the master, I am not good at all as a mother. If the time comes to bite me back and say that I framed her, I'm afraid...
...Master will not let me go."
Although Mrs. Xie felt that Qi's current deference was much more pleasing to her eyes than before, she was really displeased with such a coy attitude.
But then I thought about it, and what she said made sense. If she didn't do it well, it might be more difficult for her to gain a foothold in front of her son.
This matter must be resolved and its roots must be eradicated!
"Don't worry! I have a sense of discretion in my heart, and your master is not a reckless person. As you said, this matter needs to be carefully planned."
Mrs. Xie lowered her eyes slightly, and her face seemed to have calmed down. In fact, she was really thinking about what would happen after this matter was revealed, and how to make a profit.
She couldn't just earn face by marrying such a granddaughter to the palace.
King Chen holds great power. If the two families can cooperate and share their needs, no matter who takes the throne in the future, will the Xie family still not have a place?
The most important thing is, what is King Chen's attitude towards Xie Songhua?
Mrs. Qi felt happy and knew that she could not say anything more at this moment, so she retreated obediently, and then immediately ordered people to guard the house carefully and report any slightest disturbance.
