Concubine's Survival Handbook

Chapter 41 Continuing the Incense?

Hearing this, Jing Ning laughed in his heart.

The facts are already obvious. This Taoist priest was obviously found by Mrs. Yang, and Mrs. Yang was very smart. She didn't directly point out her identity as a disaster star to make the old lady suspect her. Instead, she went around and said that the prime minister There are people in the house who worship the Buddha and are dishonest.

There are only three people who worship Buddha in the prime minister's mansion.

The old lady, Zheng Xiuning, herself.

Who is that dishonest person, needless to say.

What was even more unexpected was that she actually used the matter of the lack of males in the prime minister's mansion to fool the old lady. This hit the old lady's heart. son.

If the Yang family really gave birth to a son, the Prime Minister's Mansion must be in Yang's hands, right?

Thinking of this, Jing Ning's heart turned cold, but there was no dissatisfaction on her face. Instead, she smiled and watched the old lady send the Taoist priest out of the house gratefully.

She showed a look of surprise and joy, "Grandmother, is what the priest said true? As long as there is a younger brother, will this kind of thing not happen again in the family?"

There is hope in her eyes.

All the reactions without any omissions fell into Yang's eyes, and she couldn't help frowning.

What happened in the past few days has already made Yang suspicious of Jing Ning, so Yang can't help but carefully analyze in her heart at this moment, is Jing Ning's reaction a real reflection, or is it a deliberate feign?

"It's natural."

The Taoist priest took Yang's money, so he naturally wanted to read the script according to Yang's script.

"It's a good thing. There are only my sister and I in this house. It's a bit lonely. It would be best if I could add a younger brother, and"

Yang Shi was taken aback, and suddenly looked at her, feeling unbelievable.

She agreed so easily?

Jing Ning bit her lips: "They all said that the family property is to be left to the male family members. If there is no younger brother, if my sister and I get married in the future, who will the property go to?"

It has to be said that this is something that the old lady also cares about.

Jingning and Xiuning are always daughters, and they will be married off in the future.

If there is no male, who will inherit the future family business?

The old lady turned her mind, and subconsciously patted Jing Ning's hand: "Good boy, grandma is very happy that you can figure this out, but your father needs you to persuade him a lot, and analyze the pros and cons with him. "

As Zheng Anyan's mother, she knew her son's temperament very well.

There is only one word to describe Zheng Anyan's character - stubborn.

He loved his wife dearly, so he didn't remarry for many years, even if he welcomed the Yang family into the prime minister's mansion to take care of Jingning, he never had a son, no matter how much she threatened and forced him, it was useless.

The only person who could talk to him was probably Jing Ning.

Jing Ning nodded, and said with a smile: "Jing Ning listened to grandma, but grandma can choose a continuation candidate for father?"

As soon as this statement came out, the stone was shocked.

The entire gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion fell silent.

Jing Ning looked at Mrs. Yang, then at the old lady, blinked her eyes, and said innocently: "What's the matter, why don't you aunts and grandmothers talk?"

"."

"Did Jing Ning say something wrong? But father wanted to have a younger brother, so didn't he want to marry a stepmother for Jing Ning? That's what they did in Zhen Guogong's mansion! Lan Yao's mother didn't give birth to her younger brother, her The younger brother was born to her after her father reunited."

By the end, her voice was getting lower and lower.

"Is it not?"

"No, you're right, it's true."

Only then did the old lady come to her senses, her eyes lit up, and she took Jing Ning's hand.

"It's just that your father misses your mother, so he's afraid he's not willing to continue. You need to enlighten him a lot. Grandma knows that you are young, so she will definitely choose a gentle and magnanimous mother for you and Xiu Ning!"

If Jing Ning hadn't mentioned it suddenly, she would have almost forgotten this point.

That is - the prime minister's mansion without a mistress!
What she thought at first was to let the Yang family give birth to a boy, so that their Zheng family would not have an endless succession, but Jing Ning reminded her of one thing——

The status of the Yan Kingdom is very strict, so how can there be a grandson born of a concubine who has a noble status and a smooth official career?
On the side, Yang's expression changed slightly, and he stared at Jing Ning firmly.

The gleam of joy that had arisen in his heart just now completely dissipated in the innocent-looking words of the other party.

Especially when Jing Ning responded to the old lady's words with a smile on her face - "Don't worry, grandma, Jing Ning will definitely enlighten my father." It completely turned into resentment.

She thought that when the old lady was worried about the question of the male, she would think of herself first, but she didn't expect Jing Ning's few words to make the old lady change her mind.

She actually wants to continue Zheng Anyan!

If there is a mistress in the prime minister's mansion in the future, then what am I?Could it be that everything I touch must become a mirror image?

At this moment, Yang lost all the calmness she had in the past, and said uncontrollably: "Mother, this is not good. For such a big matter, you have to ask the master what he thinks. If the master is not willing, there will be a gap between you and your mother." "

The old lady looked over coldly, and said coldly: "You don't need to worry about these things, just be your aunt honestly."

This is already very clear.

There will always be a mistress in this family, even if there is no one, it will definitely not be the turn of someone from Yang's background to take the position.

Even though she didn't face Yang Shi directly, she also knew that her heart must be full of unwillingness at this moment. Jing Ning lowered her head so that no one could see the sneer and sarcasm in her eyes.

It was not until she returned to the room that Jing Ning took off the disguise she had been outside.

She took a deep breath and sat down slowly.

Yang already doubted herself, even if she didn't doubt, after what she just said outside, she must have a grudge against herself.

But even so, she didn't regret it.

She will not let the Yang family give birth to a boy. In her previous life, the Yang family had only one daughter, Zheng Xiuning, and it has reached such a point. If she gives birth to a son again, her position will become more and more unshakable. Perhaps the entire prime minister's mansion It will all be in her pocket.

That's why she risked being noticed by Mrs. Yang just now, and said those words.

Thinking of this, her gaze sank, she got up slowly, and found a hairpin from the drawer.

The hairpin was blood-red, and under the sunlight it had a thrilling magnificence.

Just as old Mrs. Zheng spent countless hours carving hairpins for the old lady to express his heart, so did Zheng Anyan. This hairpin was a gift he gave to Jing Ning's biological mother back then. After her biological mother died, it fell into Jingning's hands. .

She looked at the hairpin and murmured to herself: "Mother, I didn't mean what I said, please forgive me."

She will do her best to prevent the old lady from persecuting her father, and will not influence her father's decision, but whether to continue or not is her father's personal thought and decision, and she cannot interfere.

In short, under the current circumstances, no matter whether her father will reunite or not, she will make the old lady give up the idea of ​​supporting Yang!
