Chapter 78: Laying a hidden stake

The hairpin ceremony for the eldest daughter of Mu Mansion is considered to be the top priority of the entire Mu Mansion. It started to be busy half a month ago. Seeing how busy Lin was, Liu Yun suggested that Jiang be asked to assist Lin.

Mr. Mu agreed to share some of the burden, and he valued his daughter's maturity more and more.

On her face, Mrs. Jiang was as knowledgeable and sensible as before, but in her heart she was very grateful to Liu Yun for her help, especially when she saw the precious medicinal materials Liu Yun sent her to help her body, she shed tears of gratitude.

She came from a small family, and she became a concubine when she came to Mu Mansion. The Lin family held great power and would not let anyone take away the power. Therefore, although she had no worries about food and clothing in Mu Mansion, she really did not have much money left because she spent time in the snow when she was a child.

Her body was damaged by the cold, so she could only try her best to have a baby. If she used the medicinal materials in Mu Mansion, Mrs. Lin would definitely be able to get some clues as to why it was extremely difficult for her to get pregnant, so she could only secretly raise money and go outside the mansion.

She wanted to buy medicine, but she didn't expect that the eldest lady had an insight into everything and ordered people to send many of the medicines she needed privately.

Jiang has been repaying kindness since she was in elementary school. She is smart and tolerant, and she can see the strange relationship between the eldest lady and Lin. She is naturally happy to see this situation. After all, the Lin family is the only one who makes her in Mu Mansion.

Life is like walking on thin ice, and now that the eldest lady is standing in front of her, she can spend more time trying to please her master.

Originally, she was worried that the eldest lady would see through her thoughts, but unexpectedly, the eldest lady ordered someone to secretly send a lot of clothes and jewelry, including rouge, gouache, and ointment. Jiang suddenly understood what the eldest lady meant.

"Master, Wan Qing from the eldest lady's side is here." The little girl Shishu led Wan Qing into the small courtyard. Wan Qing swept away the furnishings in the courtyard without leaving a trace. It was indeed simple and old as people said.

"Miss Wan Qing is here, come in quickly." Mrs. Jiang stepped forward to greet her with a slight smile. She did not hesitate at all because she was a maid. This actually made Wan Qing appreciate this calm and gentle concubine a little more.

Good impression.

"The young lady asked the servant to bring some books and some gadgets to Madam." Wan Qing pointed to the things in the hands of the little girl behind him, and motioned to the waiter to bring the person in, and then helped Jiang sit down, while

He said, "The eldest lady heard that Madam has had a cough these past few days and has ordered someone to call a doctor. The doctor will be here soon."

Hearing that the doctor was coming, and seeing something else in Wan Qing's smile, Mrs. Jiang seemed to realize something. She secretly sighed at the eldest lady's carefulness. She had eaten a lot of precious medicinal materials sent by the eldest lady recently, but she

She didn't dare to see a doctor at will, for fear that the doctor would discover the secret of her body. However, she didn't expect that the eldest lady had thought of this for her and actually used the excuse of coughing to call a doctor for her.

"I also ask Miss Wan Qing to thank the eldest lady on my behalf." Mrs. Jiang said, taking off a jade bracelet from her hand to put it in Wan Qing's hand, "I know that Miss Wan Qing is favored by the eldest lady."

, I must look down on these little things from me, but I don’t know how to express my gratitude, and please ask the late Qing girl to accept it."

Naturally, Wan Qing would not accept her things. Not to mention that the Jiang family was not rich to begin with. Even if she had the spare capacity to reward Wan Qing, she would not accept them. After all, she was working for the eldest lady and she had won her trust. Why?

She would covet these small profits, not to mention that the eldest lady’s original intention was to take care of the Jiang family, so she would naturally not compete with the eldest lady for these credits.

"As long as madam can understand the painstaking efforts of the eldest lady, we shouldn't be too rigid about these external things." Wan Qing helped her put the jade bracelet back into her hand. The jade bracelet was completely translucent and had a warm jade color. Come to think of it,

This should be the best thing in Jiang's hands.

"What does the eldest lady mean?" Mrs. Jiang always felt that there was something wrong in Wan Qing's words, and she couldn't help but frown.

"In the future, when a new mistress enters the house, she will inevitably need help from others. Compared to the strength of the second wife, the eldest lady still prefers the lady's sense of propriety." When Wan Qing finished speaking, Mrs. Jiang was shocked in her heart.

New mistress? Where did the new mistress come from? However, if the eldest lady said it, then it must not be groundless. There has not been any news in the house yet, but the eldest lady told her this matter. What is the purpose?

Seeing the confusion in Jiang's eyes, Wan Qing smiled lightly and said: "Madam, there is no need to panic. The eldest lady is just informing the madam. There is no harm. By the way, the eldest lady has something to say to the madam. In this Mu Mansion, only

Only heirs can ensure the prosperity and stability of my wife for the rest of her life."

Originally, Mrs. Jiang was suspicious of Liu Yun's behavior. One of them was the eldest daughter and the other was the master's concubine. She was also worried that the eldest lady sending medicinal materials was actually a test for her. After all, if she was pregnant with a son, what would happen to her?

The status of the eldest lady always has an impact.

But she didn't expect that the eldest lady would be so generous as to ask her to produce children for her father. She really couldn't understand what the eldest lady said.

"It's getting late. The eldest lady is still waiting for the slave to return the favor. The slave will leave now." After that, she bowed and left.

Mrs. Jiang looked at Wan Qing's leaving figure and remained silent for a long time.

"Master, do you really want to help me, Master?" The servant came over, his brows also furrowed, feeling that it was hard to guess what the young lady was thinking.

"What do you think?" Shishu is Jiang's dowry maid. The two grew up together and have a sisterly affection.

The servant shook his head, and his tone became more solemn: "If it were the eldest lady in the past, I could guess a thing or two, but I really can't see through the eldest lady today. How could she suddenly be in opposition to the second lady?

It is really puzzling. The whole Mu family knows that the second lady dotes on the eldest lady. What else can the eldest lady be dissatisfied with? Besides, if the eldest lady is dissatisfied with the second lady, she should go to the third lady Xia.

, she is the one who is at the top of my heart. However, she has come to seek you, Master. I really can’t understand this slave."

"Pampering? Shishu, do you remember the youngest daughter of our Jiang family? My father doted on her extremely, but later, because of her pampering and willfulness, our Jiang family fell to this point. What is this kind of pampering?

None of us know whether it is good or evil." Jiang was a bystander and could naturally see clearly.

After hearing what Jiang said, Shi Shu immediately understood something and nodded repeatedly.

"Xia is weak. The Xia family is a well-known family in the capital. Now she is just an aunt, so the master will naturally dote on her. As for me, I am the one who can really help the eldest lady. The matter of Rilan Ruocao will be

It's a test." Thinking about it carefully, Mrs. Jiang suddenly felt a little frightened. It's really surprising that the eldest lady is so scheming at the age of fourteen.

The servant naturally knew the reason for Mrs. Jiang's worry, so he could only comfort her: "Master, no matter what the eldest lady is planning, it is a good thing for us. As long as you hold the master's heart firmly and give birth to an heir for him, when the time comes,

No one can shake your position."

Mrs. Jiang nodded. After saying this, she felt a lot calmer. Now that she was a useful chess piece, she should make good use of this opportunity to get everything she deserved.
