Chapter 49 The Selfish Old Lady

In the half-acre garden, looking at Jia Shulian lying on the bed
"I will send you away early tomorrow morning. Although life on the mountain is a bit more difficult, at least you can maintain your reputation and live well."

Jia Shulian's face was pale, she was still trembling when she looked at Lian Xiyu, Lian Xiyu was too terrifying, even though she was a few years younger than herself, the coldness in her eyes almost made her suffocate.

Lian Xiyu ordered Qingsun to stay and watch, but she went back to the flower hall, because there was another person waiting there.

"I've seen grandma." At this moment, only Lian Xiyu and the old lady were left in the flower hall.

"Kneel down." The old lady looked at Lian Xiyu for a while before saying coldly.

When Lian Xiyu heard the old lady's words, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she stood up straight.
"Why did grandma want Xiyu to kneel down?"

Seeing Lian Xiyu like this, the old lady chuckled lightly.

"Very good, you are quite courageous and dare to contradict me."

Even Xiyu smiled, but the chill all over her body was even worse.

"It's not that Xiyu is bold, but I just want to know the reason why grandma wants Xiyu to kneel down. If it is Xiyu's fault, Xiyu is willing to kneel." The old lady wanted to show her power, and she didn't listen to the good advice last time. , this time it's straight to the point.

The old lady looked at Lian Xiyu for a long while, and the smile in her eyes grew bigger and bigger. This time she was right, this Lian Xiyu must be the person that the crazy monk said, but this time Fu must come first!

"Haha, my Ling Yi really married a good wife this time." The old lady smiled and stood up and walked to Lian Xiyu

"Grandmother believes that you can take good care of Rongguo Mansion and my grandson." The old lady took Lian Xiyu's hand, took off the jade bracelet on her wrist and put it on Lian Xiyu's wrist.

Lian Xiyu frowned slightly, and was about to take off her wrist and return it to the old lady, but she could tell the weight of the jade bracelet with just a glance. At the same time, a huge pit will be buried somewhere!
The old lady pressed Lian Xiyu's hand
"Only you can wear this bracelet. You should take good care of Rongguo Mansion in the future."

Lian Xiyu held back the anger in her chest, is the old lady planning to forcibly force this Rongguo Mansion to herself?She herself said that the current Rongguo Mansion is not as good as it used to be. If she is in charge, she will have to pay for her own dowry money, even the farm restaurant her father prepared for her. Although she didn't care about the money, she would have to apologize if she wanted to forcefully take it from her. She would never do such a thing!
"Grandmother, Xiyu is still young, and my mother never taught me how to be a housekeeper when I was at home. I still have a lot to learn from my grandmother and mother. According to Xiyu, my mother is a shrewd and capable person. It is also true that my grandmother entrusted this matter to her." It's okay." Lian Xiyu took a step back, took off the bracelet and put it in the old lady's hand, bowed her head respectfully and stopped talking.

The old lady frowned fiercely.
"Could it be that Xiyu dislikes the current Rongguo Mansion as an empty shell and is unwilling to take over?"

Lian Xiyu sneered in his heart, since you know you want me to take over?If I accept everything like this, then I am really a pawn for you to use. She hates being treated as a pawn, even though she is doing the same.

"Grandmother misunderstood, Xiyu's dowry is enough to fill the empty shell of Rongguo Mansion, why would she not want it because Rongguo Mansion has no money?" Lian Xiyu looked up at the old lady with a smile. Forcibly handing Rongguo Mansion into her hands can only be said that the old lady's face is not ordinary thick, and her reluctance is just because of the old lady's exploitative heart and selfish attitude, let alone Rongguo Mansion. Did not intend to go deep.

The old lady was indeed stunned for a moment, but laughed when she looked at Lian Xiyu
"In this case, why Xiyu refuses to accept the Rongguo Mansion? You have to know that even if you put in the dowry, the entire Rongguo Mansion will belong to Ling Yi in the future, and naturally it will be yours. Now everyone in the Rongguo Mansion knows who is strong and who is strong. We are all waiting to see the jokes of Rongguo Mansion, Ling Yi needs to take care of everything inside and outside as an official, this is your duty as a wife, don’t you understand?” The old lady seems to take all this for granted, yes, In her heart, a woman is born dependent on a man, and it is worth sacrificing everything for her husband, but Lian Xiyu has no such idea.

"Could it be that my husband can't even do some housekeeping?" Lian Xiyu still didn't answer the old lady's words but changed the subject.

old lady chuckled

"It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice."

Lian Xiyu lowered her eyes, and just this time she has seen the old lady thoroughly, she is extremely selfish but feels at ease, everything that others have paid for the Rongguo Mansion is taken for granted.

"If my husband can save the money in Hualou, I believe that the silver taels that have been dredged up and down should be enough." Lian Xiyu's tone was not much disappointed, because she didn't expect much from an old lady, and now it's like this It can only be said that her eyes were opened again.

"It's common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, so you don't have to worry too much about it." The old lady seemed a little dissatisfied with Lian Xiyu's words, thinking that she was feeling sorry for her dowry money and jealous Zhao Lingyi went out to find flowers and ask Liu
"Even if you marry tens of millions, your in-laws are only fifth-rank imperial merchants. Although Ling Yi is only a seventh-rank civil servant, the Rongguo Mansion is a rich family, and the family background is not comparable to that of an imperial merchant who got rich overnight."

Lian Xiyu curtsey

"Xiyu understands that it is precisely because his family is a merchant and Rongguo Mansion is a rich family with a deep foundation, so Xiyu must be careful and careful in every way, and he dare not take this big job rashly. Then there is only death to apologize."

The old lady looked at Lian Xiyu, who was not allowed to enter the oil and salt, and there was a faint look of anger on her face, but she endured it when she thought of Lian Xiyu's usefulness. Left and right Lian Xiyu had already married into the Rongguo Mansion. It was a matter of time, but before stepping out of the room, the old lady still looked back at Lian Xiyu.

"Do you know why I asked the Holy Majesty for a marriage and chose you instead of a famous lady in Beijing?"

The corners of Lian Xiyu's mouth curled up indifferently

"Xiyu believes that there is a reason for her grandmother." Even if she chooses a famous lady in Beijing, would anyone like Zhao Lingyi be willing to marry?Not being favored is still romantic, not to mention Rongguo Mansion has no capital to be proud of.

The old lady looked at Lian Xiyu, her face darkened slightly.
"If you have free time, you might as well think about it carefully. If you figure it out, you can come to me again. I will hand this jade bracelet into your hands."

Lian Xiyu nodded

"Xiyu knows." Now she knows why Zhao Lingyi doesn't like her grandmother, such a strong selfishness, no matter how kind she pretends to be, it can't withstand the chill brought by this selfishness. She, an outsider, was also heartbroken.

The old lady didn't say any more, just turned around and left the half-acre garden, she didn't say a word about the auntie, how could she help the auntie because she was the cuckold of her own grandson?Not to mention the child in her womb, it's just that the family ugliness is inconvenient to publicize, if Lian Xiyu doesn't kill the auntie, then she has to do it.

"Miss?" Dongzhu walked in after the old lady had gone out, looking at Lian Xiyu with lowered eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

Lian Xiyu looked up at Hongluo who was waiting on the side
"That person doesn't need to stay anymore, clean up."

Hong Luo naturally knew that the person who attacked Jade Finger was Chen Qi, so she turned around and ran out.

Xiulan was a little timid, and stood far away from Lian Xiyu with her head bowed.

Lian Xiyu took a look at Xiulan, turned around and went into the room without caring anymore, she had to sort out what happened tonight again to prevent any mistakes.
