Yuan'er finally understands his master's intentions. If the master carries medicine on his body and leads to poisoning His Majesty, then Your Majesty will temporarily favor the master, but as time goes by, the flaws will be revealed. And no one in the palace is a fool.
They will definitely think that the master did something to make His Majesty like this. Now, everyone will think that His Majesty loves Concubine Jing so much because of the Queen. Even if they find out the clues, they just think that Concubine Jing did something to make Your Majesty like this.
Such caring.
"Master, Concubine Jing has already met Mrs. Lan, why is there still no movement?" Yuan'er knew that Concubine Jing wanted to take revenge, but she didn't take any action, which made her very surprised.
"She is waiting for an opportunity. There is no palace banquet in the palace now. If she wants to summon Mrs. Lan or that Lan Zixian in the palace, it will arouse suspicion. Don't say it, I always thought she had no brains and was very impulsive.
"I didn't expect that she would progress so quickly. When the opportunity comes, she will not let go of Lan Zixian and her daughter." Concubine Shu said calmly.
As for Lan Mansion, quite a few changes have indeed taken place.
Ever since Mrs. Lan returned home from Qingshan Temple that day, her health has gradually improved. After Mr. Lan heard about it, he hesitated for a long time and went to see Mrs. Lan. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lan didn't mention anything about Lan Ziyu.
, which also made Master Lan breathe a sigh of relief.
In the past, Mr. Lan avoided Mrs. Lan just because Mrs. Lan would talk to him about Lan Ziyu every time he saw him, which gave him a headache. After all, she is his own daughter, so there is no reason not to feel sorry for him. But
, the accident happened, the Lan family must continue to live, and cannot be immersed in sorrow. Once Lan Ziyu left, let alone ruin the future of the Lan family because of this. So, over time, when he went to Aunt Zhi's place, he
After a while, he simply stopped going to Madam's place. But he didn't expect that Madam Lan would change a lot after going to Qingshan Temple. He thought Madam Lan had put it aside and felt relieved.
Now that Mrs. Lan is getting better, she no longer mentions Lan Ziyu's matter. Mrs. Lan discussed with Mr. Lan whether the middle minister in the mansion should be handed over from Mrs. Zhi to let her continue to take care of it.
On this day, it was Mrs. Lan who met Mr. Lan in the study and expressed her thoughts.
"Master, I know you are also hesitant. In the recent period, my sister has naturally taken care of the house very well. However, if you think about the fact that the head mistress of the Lan family is still there, and my health has improved, if
Is there something wrong with letting Mrs. Zhi continue to take care of the housework? Let’s not talk about what people outside will think, let’s talk about what the servants in the mansion will think? They will think that I, the mistress, is just a decoration. There is a mistress in the Lan Mansion, but I let Ping Ping
My wife takes care of the housework, what kind of words does this sound like?" Mrs. Lan did not use the sarcastic remarks in the past, but said these words gently.
Mr. Lan has been hesitating. He was a little surprised to hear that Mrs. Lan could say this to him in a pleasant manner. However, he thought that Mrs. Zhi was an equal wife and there was nothing wrong with taking care of the housework. But at that time, it was also
Because Mrs. Lan is indeed ill, she made such a decision. However, Lan Zixian has now decided to get married. It seems a little inappropriate if Mrs. Lan takes power again.
He was very embarrassed and said: "Madam, look..."
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lan didn't wait for Master Lan to finish speaking, but actually smiled slightly and said gently: "Master, I know you are in a difficult situation. I won't mention this matter again, so it's okay to let my sister continue to take care of it.
It doesn’t matter. If there’s nothing else to do, I’ll go back to the courtyard first.”
"Madam, you..." Mr. Lan was still a little bit dissatisfied.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lan did not cry, fuss or hang herself with him, but spoke so calmly. Moreover, when he wanted to say something more, he found that Mrs. Lan had already left the study.
Cui'er supported Mrs. Lan and walked slowly. Seeing that Mrs. Lan's face did not change, she asked in a low voice: "Madam, sir, has he agreed?"
Mrs. Lan smiled meaningfully, and then said: "How come? He is afraid that if Lan Zixian marries well, it will bring benefits to him. If at this time, he steals Mrs. Zhi's middle-income husband. He is afraid that Lan Zixian will have other ideas.
, so I will not agree to this request of my wife."
"Then, what should we do?" Cui'er was very worried that Madam would suffer a loss in the Lan Mansion. Madam finally got the news about the young lady, and the two of them also solved the knot at Qingshan Temple. But Madam Zhi is not a good person.
, if some tricks are used at this time, wouldn’t Madam suffer a loss?
"Tui'er, we don't need to be impatient. Why not do it if we don't have to manage the whole house? And we should also let the master see how the servants treat my wife. My wife's purpose has been achieved, and it depends on how the master will deal with it.
." Mrs. Lan said slowly.
Mrs. Lan is not a simple woman. She was only sad because of Lan Ziyu's incident and had no interest in fighting with Mrs. Zhi. In addition, Cui Er told her at that time that Ziyu did not really fall off the cliff and die, but Ziyu
Yu told her to pretend to be sad. Therefore, she did not know how to manage other things in the house. She just stayed in the yard every day, making people think that she was really sad.
But now, after meeting Lan Ziyu, she has confidence in her heart. Taking back her rights with Mr. Lan today is not her real purpose. To get to the point, the servants in the mansion don't take her seriously at all.
. She doesn’t necessarily want the power in Mrs. Zhi’s hands, but the dignity. She believes that Mr. Lan will definitely appear in her yard before dinner.
After she returned to the yard and said a few words in Tweet's ear, Tweetie smiled, nodded and said, "Madam, there is a way, Tweetie is really stupid."
"Twee'er is not stupid, she's just worried about Madam. Tweety, for so long, almost no one has taken care of me in this courtyard. You are the only one who treats me as well as always. Now that Madam has no control over me in this house,
Even when you had no status, you never left my wife. I will remember it, Cui'er, don't worry, I will treat you well." Mrs. Lan said gently.
"Madam, you don't know. When Cui'er first started serving the lady, she was really afraid of the lady. The lady often beat and scolded us. If we were in a bad mood, we would suffer. Sometimes, I wonder when we can
Out of the sea of misery. Madam, once again, my family found me. My younger brother is sick. My parents really have no choice but to ask me to find a way. In fact, I will send the monthly silver back home every month. Then
Is there anything left? Looking at the lady beside me frowning, I feel even more scared, fearing that the lady will beat the slave again. Who knows, lady, I just frowned and said, don’t you still have twenty taels in your sleeves?
Money note? I will treat your brother first. I am not short of money. I gave the money to my parents and my brother's illness is fine. In the eyes of the lady, twenty taels of silver is nothing. It has indeed saved our family. Because my brother
After the illness was cured, they had money left, so they started a small business with the money. They lived a good life and wanted to redeem the slave. In the end, the slave was willing to stay with the young lady, but she did not agree. Madam,
Although the young lady has a bad temper, she is actually very kind." After Cui'er finished speaking, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Lan nodded happily, if not
With the twenty taels of silver her daughter had at that time, I'm afraid Tweetie would have left her long ago. However, Tweetie is a good child who repays kindness, and if she had to leave, she would leave her as well.
"You go first, I know what I know." Mrs. Lan said with a smile. She will definitely treat Cui'er well. Such women are rare. In the future, it would be good to have a goddaughter.
"Yes." Cui'er walked towards the kitchen.
It wasn't until evening that Mr. Lan really walked to Mrs. Lan's yard.
Mr. Lan kept thinking about Mrs. Lan's words and always felt a little uneasy. After all, they were both young couples, so naturally they were very affectionate. Thinking about what the lady said in the study, he felt a little distressed.
When he walked into the yard, he felt something was wrong. There was not even a servant in the yard. What happened?
Little did he know that when his wife wanted to see him in the past, she always asked Cui'er to invite him. If he agreed, the servants would quickly get the news and they would naturally go back to work in the yard.
However, Madam didn't ask Cui'er to invite him today. He came here by himself, so naturally he wouldn't see any servants working in the yard.
He walked in slowly, only to hear voices inside.
"Mother Li, our lady didn't eat anything during lunch. Why did you bring us the same lunch food at night, and it was still cold? After all, Madam is the head of the Lan Mansion.
Mother, how can you treat me like this?" Cui'er's voice was filled with tears, which made people feel very distressed.
Of course Mr. Lan heard clearly at the door. Didn't you eat lunch? And the dinner that was delivered was the leftovers from lunch? No wonder it was still early for dinner, so the dinner was delivered.
Mr. Lan heard Nanny Li's voice: "Madam? Hey, isn't the head mistress of the Lan Mansion Mrs. Zhi? Besides, who doesn't know that the master doesn't like to see this lady? Even the head mistress is a thing of the past.
Now. If you only have one mouthful of food, it’s considered good. If you want to eat it, you can eat it. If you don’t want to eat it, you can take it to the kitchen later." There was no trace of politeness in Grandma Li's words, and she said it very unpleasantly.
Cui'er said excitedly: "That's Madam. She fell ill because of the eldest lady's affairs. Now she's getting better. Naturally, the middle child in the mansion will be returned to Madam. Besides, Madam is not in charge of the mansion, so that's what Ming Matchmaker is marrying."
My wife, how can I allow you to be trampled by a slave like you?"
"The eldest lady? Isn't she already dead? Now everyone in the house doesn't know that it is the second lady who is favored. That is the person who is going to be the princess. How can the eldest lady compare?" Mother Li said proudly, which she did not expect.
There was a 'bang', and Mr. Lan couldn't help but kicked the door open.
When Grandma Li saw Mr. Lan coming suddenly, her legs became weak and she knelt on the ground. She was trembling slightly and didn't know what to say. She didn't admit her mistake because she didn't know Mr. Lan's attitude towards his wife.
What on earth was it? He just knelt there and said nothing.
After Mr. Lan went in, he looked at the food on the table and became really angry. There was a dish with a sour smell and a few hard steamed buns. Mr. Lan pointed at the food on the table and roared: "Li
Mammy, even if you are a servant of the Lan Mansion, have you ever eaten such a meal? You actually gave this to the mistress of the house? Who? Who asked you to do this? When Cui'er said just now, you took these at noon.
The food has come? Because Madam hasn’t eaten it, so you will continue to deliver it in the evening? If you haven’t eaten it tonight, do you plan to deliver it again tomorrow morning?”
