But the situation is actually completely different.
Grandma always wanted to say something, but she was used to setting the stage first instead of getting straight to the point.
Lin Yunyan actually has no thoughts at the moment.
I didn’t make any plans, nor did I want to set the stage.
She said "stop here" because there is no need to say more.
However, Xu Jian's simple and clear reaction also showed his current mood.
He is unwilling to delve into this topic.
The backstory behind "You might as well just say it" is that it's better not to say it.
For Xu Jian, he will express a clear attitude when talking about Liu Jing.
Liu Jing is not good here, and there is something wrong there. How can we seize his problems and counterattack, and expand our advantages bit by bit...
Liu Jing was a complete "outsider" to Xu Jian.
But Mrs. Xu is different.
Therefore, Lin Yunyan summed it up with the word "complex".
If Xu Jianruo really didn't care about Mrs. Xu and treated her as an outsider, he wouldn't react like this now.
Asking Lin Yunyan to look at her like this twice, Xu Jian also realized that the little princess had not made up her mind before.
Raising his hand and pressing his eyebrows, he chuckled softly.
A game of chess was all-consuming, and because it was Lin Yunyan who told him this, he was so distracted that he didn't pay attention to it.
Normally, he would not misjudge.
This mistake...
Xu Jian is not afraid that Lin Yunyan will be angry.
With these two sentences, the little princess is not so stingy.
It’s just that she is too keen.
Many "past events" are like a picture scroll, rushing through Xu Jian's mind.
To be fair, it's not a comfortable scene.
Xu Jian calmed down, raised his eyes, and his eyes fell on Lin Yunyan.
Those beautiful eyes reflected his figure with deep concern.
Xu Jian collected her thoughts and said: "Her temperament must have some support."
Lin Yunyan nodded slightly.
Her relationship with Mrs. Xu is not very close.
In her impression, Mrs. Xu likes peace, no ups and downs, even if there is turbulence below, the water should be calm.
She has been trying to ease the estrangement between the old Mr. Guo and Liu Jing, and between Liu Jing and Xu Jian.
The former naturally failed.
When she realized that this was not a relationship that she could handle, she stopped interfering randomly to avoid adding fuel to the fire.
For the latter, she will work hard in the next few years.
When she realized again that she couldn't deal with it, she had no choice but to let it go.
She adapted to the calmness.
Once the turmoil starts...
When Liu Jing's words and deeds threatened Xu Jian with malice, Lin Yunyan remembered clearly that Mrs. Xu had a big quarrel with Liu Jing, causing Liu Ping to panic and ask for help from her.
After the quarrel, Mrs. Xu's health went from good to bad.
When the Duke Fu's mansion was confiscated and Xu Jian was in dire straits, Mrs. Xu's condition was also extremely bad.
As Xu Jian said, she needs "support".
Once her support collapsed, her mind couldn't bear it.
"Father and son are fighting. She couldn't stand her father raising his sword before, and she won't be able to see his son wielding his sword in the future." Lin Yunyan said.
Hearing this, Xu Jian laughed again, with a bit of mockery.
It's not directed at Lin Yunyan, it's more like mocking this muddy situation that is difficult to resolve in a drastic way.
Before leaving Beijing at that time, Liu Ping sent his grandma to secretly stuff some jewelry for them.
She didn't have much cash on hand. Xu Jian and Lin Yunyan were in such a situation that it was difficult to use banknotes outside. On the contrary, jewelry was easy to pawn.
The grandma mentioned that Mrs. Xu was exhausted mentally and physically, and sometimes she felt as if she was crazy. She also said that Mrs. Liu Ping's family was running around, and she might not be able to hold on for a long time.
Xu Jian added: "Sooner or later she will go crazy."
Lin Yunyan and Xu Jian have the same view on this point.
Mrs. Xu cares about Liu Jing and Liu Xun, and she also cares about Xu Jian and the Fuguo Palace, so she feels uncomfortable.
If she could really give up either side, she wouldn't go crazy.
Then again, if Mrs. Xu could happily let go of Xu Jian and Fu Guo Gongfu, then Xu Jian would not have such a "complicated" mood towards her now, but would be treated as an "outsider"
.
Lin Yunyan thought for a while and said: "I know what you think.
Sooner or later, you are going to go crazy, so it is better to do it ruthlessly than to use a blunt knife to chop the flesh from the beginning, and end up being a crazy person in the end.
No matter how hard you try to win over, or whether you try to expose him little by little, it’s all a dull knife.
I just thought of something, how about giving Mrs. Xu some support?"
Xu Jian said: "The airs must be set very high."
Lin Yunyan said very calmly: "On one side is the husband and the second son, on the other side is the natal family and the eldest son. If anything else is of equal weight, it is only Liu Ping."
Xu Jian was slightly startled and wanted to say something, but heard Lin Yunyan say something again.
"It may not be effective. Maybe when Liu Ping has ups and downs, Mrs. Xu can't hold on."
Xu Jian said: "But maybe, her tone has stopped."
It's all gambling.
Take advantage of that little bit of head start to gamble on other uncertain paths.
Winning and losing bets are common.
Give it a try.
Maybe this time is different.
Once you have made a decision in your mind, it will be much easier to move forward.
The two discussed the general situation, and Lin Yunyan left Taohe Zhai.
Nanny He was worried and asked Shen Chen: "Why did the princess leave without lunch? Didn't she have a dispute with me?"
If the princess and the master are unhappy because of her few words, then...
Shen Chen said: "I see that I am still playing chess and in a good mood. Besides, when the princess just left, she greeted her mother with a smile."
After hearing this, Grandma He felt a little relieved.
Lin Yunyan did not go back to Chengyi Bofu, but went directly to Guangde Temple.
It’s approaching noon, and there are many pilgrims in the temple.
Walking to the guest room at the back of the temple, Wan Yue took her belt and asked the monk: "I heard that in the morning, the wife of Mr. Liu, the minister of Honglu Temple, was worshiping Buddha in the temple. I wonder if she is still there at this moment? Our princess wants to ask my wife
Peace."
If ordinary people come to inquire about information, the monk will not answer.
But this is the residence of Uncle Chengyi, the princess, and he has a reputation for knowing etiquette and duty, so he will never cause trouble randomly.
The monk then said: "Madam has not left yet. The donor will wait a moment while the young monk goes to ask Madam if she is free."
In the guest room, Xu Miao was talking to the nanny beside him.
This morning, all their topics were about Grandma He.
Xu Miao recalled what happened in the past, and the more she talked about it, the more emotional she became.
Hearing that someone was looking for her, Xu Miao hurriedly asked: "Is she an old woman?"
The monk replied: "She is Princess Ning'an."
Xu Miao was stunned for a moment.
Princess Ning'an?
That, that's not...
She quickly sat down at the table.
The bronze mirror in the guest room was not as clear as the one used at home. She looked left and right without knowing it.
"Mom, please help me sort it out," Xu Miao urged, "That's Ah Jian's fiancée, and I can't neglect her."
