"Second Miss, is that golden lock really given to you by Third Miss? Why don't I remember that you went to see her?" Caixiang asked in confusion on the carriage.
Wan Su smiled and said nothing, looking at Mo Chuan aside.
Mo Chuan smiled and said: "Of course not. She is so hostile to the young lady. How could the young lady go to see her? The golden lock was just stolen from her when they left, as per the young lady's instructions."
"Miss, you are so powerful. Did you expect that Fifth Yiniang would kidnap me?" Caixiang asked.
Wan Su smiled and said: "I am not that powerful. I just feel that the eldest lady will not give up so easily, and will definitely provoke the third aunt who is hostile to me to harm me. So I keep her.
It’s my daughter’s stuff, I just thought it could contain her.”
Caixiang was shocked, "Miss, you asked the third aunt to meet the third lady. They will betray the matter as soon as they meet."
"It doesn't matter. As long as the mother and daughter meet, Liang Ruolan will know what dangerous things the eldest lady asked her mother to do. She is such a smart person, and she will naturally make her own choices." Wan Su said.
Mo Chuan was a little worried, "Miss, how can you be sure that the third lady will cooperate with you?"
Wan Su explained: "Because she has no choice. If it hadn't been for what happened today, maybe she would still hate me and hate me. But after what happened today, she would have a grudge against the eldest lady. Even if she doesn't cooperate with me,
, she will no longer be obedient to the eldest lady as before. This eldest lady! She originally wanted to use my hand to kill the third aunt, and then she tempted Liang Ruolan to turn around and come to me for revenge, so she could just sit back and take it easy.
She has the power of a fisherman. It's a pity that her wishful thinking is so loud that she is not a smart person in this world."
People from the Shangshu Mansion and the Prince's Mansion sent ten boxes full of rewards, which made everyone's eyes widen.
Especially mother and daughter Li and Liang Yunxi, if their eyes could set off fire, I am afraid that the entire capital would be on fire at this moment.
Mrs. Li took Liang Xiu's arm.
"Master, would you like to put these rewards in the public treasury?"
Liang Xiu frowned, "Didn't you listen to the chamberlain who came to deliver the reward just now? This is a reward specially given to Late Su by the Crown Prince and Crown Princess. How can we keep it?"
Mrs. Li was a person who valued wealth as much as her life. If she were allowed to watch so much gold and silver being sent to Wan Su's yard, she would be so angry that she would vomit blood.
"Master~" Mrs. Li said coquettishly: "Do you think I am doing it for myself? Do you know how much our Shangshu Mansion spends every day! Although you use your salary, you have always been honest, and that money is of no use to us.
It's also very tight! The food and clothing expenses for the hundreds of people in this house are not a small amount! In addition, there are welcome and transportation, worldly connections, and the wedding expenses of several children in the future, with money
The place is still behind! Besides, Wan Su has not left the cabinet yet, so give her a reward. Isn’t it just a reward to the entire Shangshu Mansion?"
Liang Xiu did not refute, which meant he agreed with Li's statement.
It's just that he subconsciously ignored the antiques, calligraphy and paintings that were given to him by others, the yard full of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, as well as the house deeds and land deeds under Li's name, and Li's gold and silver jewelry that could fill the entire private courtyard.
.
"What you said makes sense. Nowadays, the household expenses are quite high. But my mother has asked about it before, so I can't just withhold it. I still need to ask her for her opinion."
Qingsongyuan
The old lady almost trembled with anger when she heard Liang Xiu's opinion. How could she be so greedy for money?
"You two husband and wife, you are so shameless. We, the Liang family, have been officials in the court since your grandfather's generation. Although the gold and silver we have accumulated is not much, it is still more than enough to support this big family! You guys
The property under the husband and wife's name has always been guarded by each other, and they have never added any more to the public house. Now they have the nerve to take their daughter's reward and spend it. The euphemistic name is to put it in the public house, but in reality, it is not.
Are you taking those rewards as your own? I am your mother, so I can’t understand your thoughts. Don’t forget that you slapped your daughter in Baiyun Temple and wanted to sever ties with her. Now.
Are you embarrassed to ask for her reward in the name of your father again?"
The old lady's words were merciless at all, and Liang Xiu, who spoke bluntly, wished he could find a place to get in.
He came out of Qingsongyuan full of shame and anger. Li was only thinking about the rewards and didn't notice anything unusual about her face.
He hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "How is the master? Does the old lady agree to confiscate these rewards?"
Looking at Li's greedy face, Liang Xiu felt that his anger finally had a place to vent. He raised his hand and hit Li's face hard.
"As a mother, you don't think about your child's safety all day long, and you only focus on this reward for your child. How shameless are you!"
The eldest lady was completely knocked unconscious by this slap. Although she was full of grievances, she couldn't speak anymore when she saw the anger on Liang Xiu's face.
I could only look at the rewards in pain as they were carried into the Lianxiang Pavilion like water.
At night, Wansu sat on the beauty's couch and drank tea, while Aixiang stood aside and read to her the gift list sent by the prince.
"Five thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of gold, six clumps of deep-sea shark tears, a set of emerald heads and faces, a set of sapphires, a set of Persian glass tea cups, two strands of sardonyx dzi beads, and twenty pieces of the finest Shu brocade...
···”
There are a lot of them, and Caixiang spent almost half an hour reciting them before she finished them.
"This prince is so generous. He can spend so much at any time. Now the small warehouse may not even be able to fit it in!" Caixiang said happily.
"Yes! How can a prince of a country not be generous? Leave the sardonyx dzi beads and the Persian glazed tea cup. I will send them to the old lady tomorrow. The rest should be locked in the warehouse first!" Wan Su
He ordered.
"I must say that the old lady really loves you, otherwise all these rewards would have gone into the palace's treasury! Didn't you see the look on the eldest lady's face? It was as if she had taken poison, she was green from head to toe!
"
Caixiang thought about how angry the eldest lady looked when she saw her when she came back today, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
'I asked you to come up with the idea to let Third Yiniang kidnap me. You deserve to be so angry that you get internal injuries.'
Wan Su just smiled and said nothing when she heard what she said!
Old lady? I do like her, but I can’t say how good I am to her.
This matter can be seen from the fact that Liang Ruolan framed her last time and sprinkled salt on her confidence. The old lady felt that she was humiliated and reprimanded her in front of everyone.
The old lady was nice to her just because Wan Su was like a pretty good commodity in her eyes. She could gain face for the Shangshu Mansion. If she got married in the future, she would also be a good match-in-law for the Shangshu Mansion.
Everything is based on the interests of Shangshu Mansion, and it actually has nothing to do with so-called family ties.
Just like working for a boss in the 21st century, people who can generate income for the company will always be treated differently by the boss.
Fortunately, Wan Su was open-minded and didn't care much about these things.
As long as she is valuable to the old lady, the preference she gives to Wan Su will be enough for her to establish a foothold in this family.
