The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight
Chapter 130 Cooperation again
Chapter 130 Cooperation again
When Lin Mowan returned to the Jiang family, it was not too late. Almost all the Jiang family members, except Jiang Wenqing, seemed to know the news. They were waiting at the door.
With that kind of scene, if you didn't know, you would think they valued Lin Mowan very much. And that was exactly the case. Even the bedridden old lady was helped up and had to move a chair to sit at the door and wait.
Lin Mowan got off the carriage, and Gongshu Tingyue hurriedly brought people to greet her. She had a bright smile on her face, but it still couldn't hide the coldness that flashed across her eyes.
She held Lin Mowan's hand as usual and whispered, "Look, you've lost weight after not seeing you for a few days. It's all my fault. Don't blame me. I just lost my child, so I'm inevitably impulsive."
Lin Mowan looked at her, returned the same smile as hers, and held her hand, saying, "It's okay, Madam. I don't care. As long as everyone truly accepts me, I don't care."
Gongshu Tingyue's eyes were full of relief. He said, "Good child," and led Lin Mowan into the house.
As soon as I entered, I ran into Hanyan, whose face was rosy. I hadn't seen her for a few days. She looked a lot more radiant and beautiful, and the pink skirt she was wearing made her look even more charming.
When she saw Lin Mowan, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared. She just greeted her politely and quickly walked around Lin Mowan and left.
After watching her walk away, Lin Mowan turned around and looked at Gongshu Tingyue. There was no unnatural expression on Gongshu Tingyue's face. The two of them just exchanged a few brief greetings before Gongshu Tingyue left, making the excuse that he was busy.
When everyone entered the house, basically no one stayed with Lin Mowan anymore, only Jiang Yanran stayed to talk to her.
It turned out to be like this...
Jiang Yanran pondered for a moment, looked around, and after making sure that she and Lin Mowan were the only ones around, she lowered her voice and said, "After returning from Qingqiu Temple, Madam couldn't have children anymore. She also had a miscarriage and had a period. Daddy didn't want to stay in her courtyard, so he often went to the Second Aunt's courtyard. She refused, so she gave her personal maid to Daddy to be the Third Aunt."
If you want a secret to remain a secret forever, the best way is of course to kill the person who told you the secret. Only the dead will not reveal the secret.
Thinking about Hanyan's smug look just now, Lin Mowan seemed to have some guesses in her mind, so she asked, "What's going on with Hanyan?"
Lin Mowan curled her lips and couldn't help feeling amused in her heart. This Gongshu Tingyue had been scheming against others all his life, but in the end, he still fell into her hands. It was really a tit-for-tat situation.
Lin Mowan didn't think that Hanyan would completely unite with her. Hanyan's ambition was not small at all. Even if one day she really took the position of the mistress of the Jiang family, Lin Mowan would be the only person who knew her secret.
She was still very satisfied with the result, but the biggest problem for her now was Hanyan. Hanyan was a smart person to put it nicely, but cruel and ruthless to put it bluntly.
Just as Lin Mowan had expected, Hanyan came to her house the next day after she came back, bringing some gifts in the name of visiting. She greeted Lin Mowan warmly, and Lin Mowan naturally responded with a smile.
After entering the house, Lin Mowan dismissed the maids in the house. Hanyan looked around and got straight to the point: "It is really thanks to Miss Lin's advice that I am here today."
Lin Mowan smiled, picked up the teacup beside her and said softly: "What? Are you satisfied with a small position of concubine?" "..." Hanyan didn't say anything, but looked at Lin Mowan with eyes that gradually became cold, inexplicably feeling as if her thoughts were exposed.
After a long while, Lin Mowan felt her cold gaze, then she slowly raised her eyes, met her eyes, and then curled her lips: "Of course, I didn't say that this is bad. If you feel satisfied with this level, I have nothing to say, Third Aunt."
As she spoke, she pronounced the last three words very clearly and heavily.
Lin Mowan certainly knew that with Hanyan's ambition, a little concubine could not satisfy her.
This naturally hit the mark, but she was not stupid. She knew that there was no such thing as a pie in the sky for no reason in this world. She curled her lips and said, "Miss Lin, what do you mean? Can you still help me?"
"Why not?" Lin Mowan asked her back, her eyes firm and with a hint of playfulness as if she was in control of the overall situation.
Hanyan narrowed her eyes dangerously but didn't say anything, as if she was considering her words. Lin Mowan blew her eyes and continued slowly, "You must be wondering why I should help you."
Hanyan still didn't say anything, but her expression confirmed Lin Mowan's words. Lin Mowan put down the cup in her hand, slowly stood up, and walked towards the window.
She said faintly: "Maybe we are different. My purpose of coming here is not to repay a favor, but I have said that we have the same goal. You want to be the mistress, and my uncle Tingyue will die."
As she spoke, she leaned against the window and looked back at the people in the room. The smile on her face became brighter and brighter. After a slight pause, she continued, "As for why I want her to die, I will tell you when you become the mistress of the Jiang family."
These words were tantamount to giving Hanyan great encouragement in disguise, as if Lin Mowan had stayed out of the matter from beginning to end and was in control of the overall situation. She had witnessed the outcome of the matter with her own eyes, and had also seen her accompanying Jiang Wenqing as the mistress of the Jiang family.
But for Lin Mowan, not telling her does not mean that he has high hopes for her or encourages her. Firstly, he simply does not want her to know the specific grudge between her and the Jiang family. Secondly, Lin Mowan will not let Gong Shu Tingyue go, and naturally she will not let Jiang Wenqing go.
Therefore, considering Hanyan's foolish devotion to Jiang Wenqing, the day she knows the truth will be the day they turn against each other. Before that, she will make good use of everything to alienate Gongshu Tingyue and Jiang Wenqing. She doesn't want them to die too easily.
"What is the exchange this time?"
For the position of mistress, Hanyan couldn't resist the temptation after all. Of course, she also knew that Lin Mowan would not help her for no reason, so she would naturally get some benefits.
Seeing her give in, Lin Mowan's smile became brighter. She said, "Okay, since our goals are the same, I need you to help me keep an eye on Gongshu Tingyue. No matter what plans she has, you have to tell me everything. Only then can we cooperate more perfectly."
Hanyan hesitated for a moment after hearing this. She must have still missed the master-servant relationship between her and Gongshu Tingyue. However, facing the wealth and glory that was within her reach, she gritted her teeth and nodded: "Okay, I will cooperate with you."
The two hit it off immediately, but in the end, Hanyan still said: "Although I want to be the mistress and always be by the master's side, Madam Jiang has done me a favor after all, I hope you can spare her life."
