Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 68: Strategies (1)
After Yuan Lu got the news, she didn't dare to delay, so she went directly to report to the old lady.

The old lady already had some points in her heart, but she almost fainted when she heard the news.

Gao Lan was left in the back room by the old lady for three days. At this time, the old lady called her to her, pointed at her and scolded: "Thanks to your useless aunt! You have to thank her! It was bestowed by the emperor Taizu!" I dared to send things to the pawnshop, but now I can't find them, and they really came into the hands of someone with a heart... Our whole family will go down to your aunt's funeral together!"

Gao Lan couldn't help but kowtow: "Mom calm down, mother calm down."

How confused her aunt was, of course she knew.Otherwise, she wouldn't have lived like that, but now that her aunt is gone, she, the daughter, is of course responsible for these things, so no matter how badly the old lady scolds, she can only admit it.

The old lady wandered around the room on crutches. Nanny Sun made her a cup of tea and asked her to sit down and rest for a while.

The old lady was really in a hurry, pushed away the teacup, and said, "What are you waiting for, I have time to rest after entering the coffin." The jade pendant looked inconspicuous, but now her son was working hard at the border. It was captured by someone with a heart, and there was no man who could support the door.

Yuan Lu thought for a while, now that the marriage of the three girls is nothing to do with the face of the Duke's House, it is even more of a hidden danger if they lose the imperial gift and pawn it anyway.

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, it doesn't necessarily mean there is no room for change."

"You have a solution?" The old lady glanced at her.

Yuan Lu said: "This thing was rewarded by the great grandfather when he was not on the throne in the early years. Although there are many people who know it, it should not be recorded. After so many years, maybe not many people remember it. And town The matter of the general of the country is at the forefront, and our mansion is now considered to be full of holy family members. The saint may not embarrass us because of such a jade pendant... If the palace comes to warn us at that time, at most it will be a name for lax family management. But in this high-ranking family, which family doesn’t have someone who can’t make progress? Besides, the old aunt is gone, can the sage punish our whole family for the crimes of the living because of a dead aunt?”

Although Gao Lan knelt down, but her aunt did such a thing, Yuan Lu didn't have the heart to worry about her anymore.

After the old lady heard this, she felt less anxious.At least there is no one who advises me now.

Yuan Lu stepped forward to help her sit down, and said in a low voice, "Of course, whether it's a big deal or a small thing, it all depends on the sage. heart. So the jade pendant must be retrieved."

"Then this..."

Yuan Lu took the tea made by Nanny Sun and put it in the hands of the old lady, "Don't worry, our jade pendant is not lost. The daughter-in-law checked the booklet in the house, and the grandpa bestowed her father-in-law back then. Yun Baifu's jade pendant, the auspicious wishful pattern was not given to our family, just throw it away."

The old lady froze for a moment, looking at her with her mouth slightly open.

Yuan Lu smiled slyly, "Since the family of the right servant of the Ministry of War has married another, this token should naturally be returned. And since they broke their promises first, they would be ashamed to ask for their things back."

The old lady grinned, smiled halfway and then stopped smiling, "This... will it work?"

Yuan Lu blessed her body, "If the mother-in-law can trust her daughter-in-law, I will leave this matter to the daughter-in-law. Tomorrow I will post a post and come to ask for it."

The old lady nodded, and said to Gao Lan: "Leave this matter to your sister-in-law. You will live in the mansion until the news dies down, so don't wait until later."

Although Gao Lan was concerned about the business in the cloth village, she dared not mention this matter in front of the old lady.
