Chapter 106: Throwing stones to ask for directions
Maybe Lan Xi was still waiting for her father to let Lin go because he loved his daughter, but she didn't expect that the news she got was that Mu Qingyang ordered people to send Lin to Beiyuan, the most remote and dilapidated place in Mu Mansion, overnight.
Many people guarded the door, so Lin was imprisoned in Beiyuan and no one was allowed to visit.
The servants took notice of this and took action. The stewards who used to rely on the Lin family all clamped their tails between their legs and secretly recalled whether they had done anything wrong that would get them punished, and silently guessed who would be in charge next.
No one expected that the old lady would actually suggest that the eldest lady be the housekeeper, and Xia naturally agreed.
Mu Qingyang initially disagreed, but then he agreed after thinking about Liu Yun's promise to exchange the freedom of marriage with Murong Villa that day. He suddenly wanted to see how far this daughter had grown.
What's surprising is that Liu Yun readily accepted the power to take charge of affairs, and also asked Jiang for assistance. This move made Mrs. Mu smile. She found this girl more interesting and thoughtful. Of course, the old lady had a certain affection for her.
The biggest reason for such a good impression is that she persuaded Mrs. Ji to stop intervening in the Mu family's marriage, which was a great thing for Mrs. Mu.
As for Liu Yun's method of persuading the stubborn Mrs. Ji, that is not a matter for others to ask. Mrs. Mu is also a person who knows current affairs. If she is smart, she only cares about whether her goal has been achieved, and there is no need to ask about the process.
.
In this way, the person in charge of Mu Mansion became Liu Yun, while Jiang was responsible for the execution of daily affairs. However, in the eyes of most people, Liu Yun was just a cover. The real person in power was Jiang, and the servants came to court one after another.
As Ms. Jiang began to flatter her, it was hard for Ms. Jiang, who had always been quiet, to get used to people being so attentive.
However, Liu Yun was particularly interested in her next actions. She wanted to know what her vision was like. Will Mrs. Jiang become the second Mrs. Lin, blinded by the flattery of her servants? Or maybe she
Slowly becoming the real person in charge of Mu Mansion's backyard.
That afternoon, Mrs. Jiang was reconciling the accounts with the steward in the accounting room. Liu Yun was hiding in the room comfortably eating snacks. After a while, Wan Qing came in with a letter. The signature was Luo Shao. Wan Qing placed the letter in
After sitting on the table, he went to the kitchen to get some sugar water. Liu Yun opened the letter and read it slowly.
In the past, Luo Shao would appear in the Mu Mansion at such a sensitive time and reveal the little tricks Lin had made in the Mu family's business. Naturally, it was Liu Yun who instructed her, but instead of using her own identity, she secretly sent
Someone sent a letter to Luo Shao. Luo Shao was a smart man and naturally knew how to deal with the Lin family mentioned in the letter.
In fact, even without the reminder of the letter sent by Liu Yun, he was still investigating those things, but he did not direct the investigation towards the Lin family. However, he believed that given a little more time, he would be able to find out whether the Lin family was in Mu Mansion.
Excellent role in business.
Of course, Liu Yun was not a clairvoyant. She knew all these things from Qiu's mother and Ning Xiang, especially Qiu's mother. Since Qiu's mother was so worried about Lin Ping, she naturally couldn't pass up such a good opportunity.
Liu Yun is very smart. She carefully hides her identity. She does not want to reveal her identity prematurely. Although she is the daughter of the Mu family, her father does not like the daughter's family's involvement in the business. At this point,
Her father is actually a dictator and very overbearing.
As a daughter, she naturally doesn't need to touch her father's side, but she needs someone of her own in Mu Mansion's business, and Luo Shao is the first one.
"Miss, there's a commotion in the kitchen. The Jiang family is weak. Do we want to help?" Qianlan rushed back excitedly and talked about what happened in the kitchen.
"What are you going to do?" Liu Yun asked with raised eyebrows. His idle look didn't look like he was going to help at all, but rather he was a bit gloating about his misfortune.
"..." Qianlan originally thought that the young lady not only wanted to promote the Jiang family, but also wanted to win over the Jiang family. Now that the Jiang family was in trouble, the young lady should naturally go to help, but now she saw something.
Knowing that, she raised her eyebrows slightly and asked tentatively, "Miss, did you deliberately let Mrs. Jiang stand at the forefront of the storm?"
Liu Yun smiled, narrowed his charming eyes, half-smiling but not smiling: "Do you think Mrs. Jiang is such an easy person to catch?"
At this moment, the Lin family has just fallen, and various forces in the Mu family are lurking secretly. No one will act rashly at this time, because no one knows whether the suppression of the Lin family by the master is temporary or permanent, and no one knows about the Jiang family.
Should the superiors send her out as a target or give her a chance to see how good she is?
Liu Yun was not worried at all about Jiang. How could a concubine who had lived under Lin's care for several years be so stupid? What she was more curious about was how Jiang would deal with the forces left behind by Lin.
Lin was not divorced, but imprisoned, so her connections in Mu Mansion were only temporarily dormant. Whether Jiang could break up or eliminate Lin's connections in the shortest time, that was her decision
The ability.
"Miss, are you asking for directions?" Qianlan pursed her lips and her thoughts began to race.
"I just want to know whether she is keeping a low profile because she has no chance, or because she has other motives." After experiencing what happened in her previous life, she is wary of anyone, even the seemingly harmless Jiang family.
It may not be that he is hiding evil intentions, so he still needs to do some testing.
Qianlan frowned and asked in confusion: "But Miss, now that the Second Madam has fallen, the power in the house is in chaos. If Miss doesn't come forward at this time, she will let Mr. Jiang step forward. If she has impure thoughts and bites her back,
What should the young lady do?"
Liu Yun smiled silently. The more important reason why she did not come forward was that many things could only be seen clearly as a bystander. If she were in the authorities, she might ignore many things. Now that someone is taking the lead, why should she lie down?
A trip into troubled waters, not to mention that based on her understanding of the Lin family, the current house arrest is very likely to be temporary, and she will definitely make a comeback as long as there is a chance.
Therefore, if you stay out of the situation, you can see Lin's every move more clearly.
"How is Aunt Xia doing?" Liuyun was always worried about her miscarriage. Thinking of this matter, he asked Qianlan again carefully, "Remember carefully, when you checked her pulse, she didn't
No slippery tires?”
Qianlan thought that her medical skills were pretty good. Although she was not an expert, she could still tell whether a tire had slipped or not, so she nodded decisively: "The tire pressure is unstable, but there is no slip."
