Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 3
Concubine Runan stared at the golden lock thoughtfully. Jiang Changning held the Queen Mother's golden lock in his hand. It was impossible for Jiang Changning to recognize her as his goddaughter and make a marriage instead of his daughter.

Then befriend her and get on with the queen mother, so that the emperor will not set his mind on his daughter.

After making up her mind, Princess Runan smiled and said, "Chang Ning, this golden lock looks like the one the Empress Dowager is looking for, but it's a very important matter, and the Empress Dowager has to decide it herself."

"I listen to your mother." Jiang Changning trusted Princess Runan more than Mrs. Zhuang in this matter.

"This matter will trouble the empress." Mrs. Zhuang is the wife of the emperor, and she can also enter the palace, but she is not good at competing with Princess Runan.

But Jiang Changning is her grandniece, as long as the Queen Mother recognizes this kindness, the benefits of the dealer cannot be lost.

It's just that Jiang Changning has brought this golden lock by her side for six years, but she doesn't know how many things this girl still keeps from her.

The old lady Zhuang glanced at Jiang Changning, and saw that she lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, as usual.

Princess Runan put the golden lock back into her purse, got up and walked out, "Then I will go into the palace to meet the empress dowager."

Mrs. Zhuang led the whole family and sent the Princess Runan to the second gate respectfully.

When the palace carriage left, Mrs. Zhuang and Mrs. Wu looked at Jiang Changning at the same time, with complicated eyes that were surprisingly consistent.

Wu said with a smile: "I've been making a fuss for so long, I think the cousin is tired, so go back and have a rest."

The old lady Zhuang was not very happy with Jiang Changning who had hidden the golden lock for six years without her telling her, so she told Xiulan lightly, "I'm so good to serve you, go down!"

"Yes, old lady." Xiulan hurriedly responded, helping Jiang Changning to turn around and leave.

Seeing Jiang Changning's slender back, Wu Shi squinted her eyes. Even if this girl was favored by the queen mother, she didn't want her to be her daughter-in-law.

"Old lady, I see that the cousin has lost weight again. It must be that those little girls are not good enough to take care of her. Why don't you send a few more honest and honest girls to serve, so as not to worry about everything to the cousin and wear yourself out?" Wu said. I have always wanted to put someone next to Jiang Changning, but it has never been successful.

But she didn't give up, and would try whenever she had the chance.

Having been a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for decades, Mrs. Zhuang is well aware of Wu's intentions, and said coldly: "I have made my own arrangements for this matter, so you don't need to worry about it."

After saying that, he took the maid's hand and left.

Wu shi squeezed the veil tightly in her hand, this dead old woman.

Seeing Mrs. Wu deflated, Mrs. Zou laughed mockingly, flattered her horse's leg again, and raised her hand to caress her forehead, "When the sun comes out, I'll get dizzy from the sun, sister-in-law, I'll go back to my room first."

The old lady Zhuang returned to the room and lay down on the soft couch. Today's events made her very tired. She never thought that Jiang Changning, who had been raised for six years, had other thoughts.

It looks like a weak little rabbit, but it is actually a fierce white-eyed wolf.

The old lady Zhuang sat up and told the little girl, "Go and call Guixi."

After a while, Guixi came in, "Old lady."

"Guixi, tell me from beginning to end what happened when you went to invite your cousin girl."

Guixi said it honestly, and the old lady Zhuang pursed her lips, with a stern look on her face, "I really underestimated this girl!"

Guixi's heart trembled, she quickly lowered her head, pretending not to hear.

The old lady Zhuang lay back on the couch, half-closed her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

After a long time, she said: "Go and call Mrs. Liang in."

"Yes." Gui Xi took three steps back, turned around and walked out quickly, ordering the little girl to find Mrs. Liang.

Mrs. Liang is the chief steward of Mrs. Zhuang's yard, and she is watching the maids and daughter-in-laws doing things in the small yard behind.

After a while, Mrs. Liang came, "Old lady."

The old lady Zhuang sat up, "Nurse Zhou next to Miss Cousin has been out of the house for a while, can you arrange for the old lady who has been there to serve her?"

"Responding to the old lady's words, the cousin said that there are enough people around to serve, and there is no need to arrange more people." Mrs. Liang replied.

"Bastard, the girl in the house is not surrounded by a bunch of maids and women. She is so young that she understands the difficulty of the house. Are you bullying the Jiang family by neglecting her like this?" Mrs. Zhuang said angrily.

Granny Liang hurriedly knelt down and said, "Forgive me, old lady, and this old slave will make arrangements."

"Choose a few good ones and send them to Cousin to choose." Mrs. Zhuang said.

"Yes." Granny Liang exited the room and wiped off the sweat that didn't exist on her forehead.

As an old slave who had served Mrs. Zhuang for decades, she could see that the old lady's harsh words just now were just a bluff.

The old lady has a heart of love for this cousin girl, but there is also a sense of calculation in it.

Mrs. Liang took two shrewd old mothers to Jiang Changning's yard, "My cousin, Mrs. Zhou has gone out to recuperate. There is no reliable old man here to take care of my cousin. The old lady asked the old slave to bring Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Lin to offer sacrifices." Cousin girl orders."

Jiang Changning looked at the three women in front of him, and said with a smile: "The old lady loves me again, Mama Liang, please thank the old lady for me, and I will stay."

Mrs. Liang smiled and saluted and left. She didn't follow the rules and left the deeds of prostitution of the two women.

"Xiulan, let someone tidy up the corner room in the west courtyard and let the two mothers live in it." Jiang Changning ordered lightly.

She still lives in the dealer's house, and she has no choice but to be controlled by Mrs. Zhuang before she broke her face with the dealer's house.

"Cousin girl, the old slave was sent by the old lady to serve the girl." Mrs. Qin emphasized.

As the nanny next to the girl, she should live in the main courtyard and serve her personally.

If they lived in the corner room across the courtyard, it would be like dispatching the ministers of the court to the frontier, then how would they complete the tasks the old lady told them to do?
"The old lady sent you to serve the girl, not to tell her what to do. If you are not willing to serve the girl, then send the two mothers back to the old lady." Fu Cui said quickly.

Mrs. Lin tugged Mrs. Qin's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Why wouldn't this old slave want to serve Biao girl? Being able to serve Biao girl is what this old slave dreams of."

"People say that Lin's mother is eloquent. When I saw her today, she is indeed so." Jiang Changning smiled meaningfully, "The two mothers go back to the room to tidy up, and come over tomorrow to serve as servants."

"Yes, Cousin." Mrs. Lin dragged Mrs. Qin, who was full of resentment, out.

After entering the Xikua courtyard, Mrs. Lin let go of Mrs. Qin, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

When the two women came, they discussed it, one to sing the red face and the other to sing the bad face. Only in this way can they handle the cousin girl.

But they didn't expect that they would have no chance to get close to Jiang Changning in the future, let alone handle her.

After sending the two women away, Fu Cui stomped her feet anxiously, "Girl, they have evil intentions, so they can't stay."

"You can see that they have bad intentions, can't the girl see it, but if you drive them away, the old lady will replace them with two others." Xiulan threaded the silk thread into the needle.

"At that time, the girl still has to keep him." Fangju lifted the curtain and walked in, "It's better to keep him than to drive him away and offend the old lady."

"Could it be that these two rat shit are allowed to spoil the tranquility of our yard." Fu Cui said unwillingly.
