Chapter 38: The Duke is angry: The old lady has strong genes
Oh! There is one person, that is the old lady. She has forgotten what the old lady of the He family looked like before. When she heard the old lady of the He family wishing for harmony in the whole family, it seemed to hit something in her. Her face was moved, and she thought
Want to say something.
The Duke's wife stared at the old lady with a half-smile, but the old lady could only shut up angrily and turned her head away from the Duke's wife, for fear that if she kept talking too much, others would not help her daughter.
"Today I disturb my uncle, and another day my sister-in-law will come to apologize." He An finally did not point at Mrs. He before leaving, but said these words himself.
But neither the Duke nor his wife said a word to him. They had nothing to say to this self-righteous and self-proclaimed person. They had never asked for favors in person, so they treated him as a mere figure.
Yes! They should have thought long ago that without He An and Mrs. He directing the old lady from behind, would she have thought of stealing things from the Duke's mansion and giving them to the He family?
The old lady was so naive that she really thought that what was her daughter's was still hers, and what she gave to her daughter was her daughter's. She didn't even think about it. Luo Jinhui and her daughter had lived and ate in the Duke's Mansion for more than ten years. Could the things they sent to the He family be?
Will it really be well preserved in Luo Jinhui’s dowry?
The servants sent the mother and son out. The old lady looked at the two people hesitantly. She thought the Duke's wife would say something, but the Duke's wife seemed not to see it. The old lady had no choice but to ask the Duke.
Father-in-law.
"I'll leave this matter to you. I can't write two characters of "Luo" in this stroke. I'll be both prosperous and devastated. Your sister's reputation has been ruined and she won't be of any benefit to the government. You think you can let your sister do it today.
Come back?" The old lady asked tentatively.
Just as the Duke of Guo was about to open his mouth, the Duke of Guo's wife winked. Given the tacit understanding between the couple, the Duke of Guo naturally knew what his wife meant.
"Try your best." With these two words, the old lady dismissed her. After the couple came out of Ning'an Hall, the Duke of Guo looked at his wife with doubts.
The Duke's wife waved her hand, and the servants behind her were a few steps behind. She then told the Duke Luo Jinhui why this happened? If her daughter and sons hadn't seen through their scheme, I'm afraid they would be lying at the gate today.
The one in the temple is your biological daughter.
The Duke's wife's words shocked the Duke on the spot, her eyes were wide open, obviously in disbelief, but when she thought about the tempers of those two people, she immediately became furious, her jawline was tense, and her body was straight and stiff, obviously she was furious.
Already.
"In this case, what kind of reputation do you need to protect Luo Jinhui? Could it be that Baolai continues to hurt his daughter? The mother and daughter have no intentions. If they were grateful for the good things of the government, they would not attack their daughter.
, making her daughter struggle on the line of life and death time and time again. He Lingyao is a very evil woman, and her daughter has been injured countless times by her since she was a child."
The Duke's wife told the Duke what her daughter had said before. The more the Duke listened, the heavier her breathing became. Unbeknownst to them, her daughter had really missed death time and time again. They never doubted it.
After all, this matter was related to the young He Lingyao. After all, they were born on the same day, and they had never seen anything done. It turned out that their daughter could be hurt like this.
"How unreasonable. They plotted against my female life again and again. I wonder if it was their own doing or someone else instigated it?" It was true that evil comes with evil consequences. He was still thinking about the circumstances under which a biological mother could be so harsh on her biological daughter.
Hands, it turned out that they thought it was his daughter on the bed. Judging from He Lingyao's injury, there was no trace of emotion left, otherwise it wouldn't be so serious.
"Go collect the belongings of Luo Jinhui and her daughter and send them to the He family." The prince's government could not afford to accept these two people. They retreated again and again, but in exchange for making further progress, they had no intention of repenting.
"Let me tell you, it's not too late for He Lingyao to wake up before the deadline. The mother and daughter can't escape from the Shilang's Mansion. It seems that the feng shui of the Shilang's Mansion is not good and the place they live in is unsatisfactory. The Mansion of the Water Ministry Doctor would be more to their liking.
." The Duke of Guo raised his eyes, looked at his daughter's yard with deep eyes, and said in a calm voice that was neither low nor high.
"Master, I will give orders." As a clan, who in the court does not have many people? After Yan Zhong listened to the instructions of the Duke, he withdrew and went to find a mansion he liked for Luo Jinhui and his daughter.
There was a "run".
The doctor of the Ministry of Water belongs to the internal organization of the Ministry of Industry. The doctor is the chief minister and is promoted to the fifth rank. The current minister is a third rank. It is not easy to get promoted. However, because of their insatiable heart, He An has been working in the business for many years.
His level dropped by five levels. I wonder if He An will regret it to the point of beating his chest when he finds out. Will he regret everything they have planned?
This unvirtuous wife has caused trouble for three generations, not to mention a daughter who is restless, ambitious, and cruel-hearted. In He An's life, as long as he does not lose his official rank, it will be his greatest ability and fortune.
The most noteworthy thing is that, with the support of the Duke's government, I kept a low profile and offended many people. Now that I am better, I no longer have to live the days of being cautious and cautious, trying to curry favor with my superiors but having no way to ask for help.
The Duke's wife was obviously very satisfied with the arrangements made by the Duke, with a smile on her face.
So I asked: "I am not afraid of the old lady..."
"She is reluctant to leave the Duke's mansion, and she is reluctant to part with this luxurious life." The Duke of Guo naturally knows what his wife means. He does not want to be too clear about the old lady's thoughts. He only likes to live a good life. Today's life,
If we separate, I am afraid that these three points will not be enough. This is not only about food, clothing, housing and transportation, but the most worrying thing is probably the gap in status. Now that the name of the old lady of the Duke's Mansion is out, among the ladies in the backyard, she is the only one.
Even the royal relatives would show courtesy to those who were not suppressed. Without this title, the old lady would not dare to leave the house.
It's just ridiculous to say that she is the daughter of the old loyal king after all. But because she is a concubine, she is not taken seriously and does not receive good education, which makes the young family very angry. Her vision is incomparable with that of a person who was specially taught to be a mistress.
of.
"Will this matter harm the reputation of the Duke's palace?" When the Duke's wife asked this, she was also thinking that other families were afraid of damaging their reputation and affecting the marriages of their children, but she had no such knowledge.
anxiety.
Could it be that he is too confident in his sons?
"Of course it will happen, but there is no need to worry about it." The Duke's Mansion has shortcomings and criticisms, which makes people more reassured.
The Duke's wife naturally thought of this, nodded and returned to her yard.
In less than a day, Luo Jinhui's incident has already spread in the capital. After all, she was not given a carriage to ride from Tianmen Temple to Shuntian Prefecture. She walked on foot, and the people in the city had long known about it.
Those who are interested will naturally focus on the three places of Guogong Mansion, He Mansion, and Shuntian Mansion Yin.
The person sitting above is also watching the flow of things below to see how far he can go.
If I didn't step in to stir things up, it's because one of the people above was in a bad mood.
In fact, the reputation of Guogong Mansion among the people and the military is too great.
It was so big that anyone sitting in that seat would be scared.
Even if they have no other thoughts, they are focused on serving the country.
There was one person who was particularly concerned about the direction of He Lingyao's matter. He was also particularly concerned about whether He Lingyao was sober.
Luo Jin, the second room in the Duke's mansion, dropped a set of tea cups when he returned to his courtyard.
"Second Master, what you broke is ours." We don't have to pay for it ourselves.
After Mrs. Chu came out of her daughter's yard, her servants told her that the second master of the house was in a bad mood. As soon as she arrived in the yard, she heard the sound of porcelain falling to the ground.
It's strange that the sounds are all made of money.
"Can't I, the dignified Second Master of the Duke's Mansion, still not be able to afford a set of tea cups?" Luo Jinzhong was even more furious when he heard Chu's narration in such a calm and indifferent tone.
"Does the Zhenguo Palace belong to you? All the utensils used in our courtyard are recorded in the book, and all the bills will be taken from the government in the future." So, you are angry, why bother throwing things at home when you go out?
The plate and the bowl were thrown.
Do you think the second master of Zhen Guo Gongfu is great? You should not prefix it with the four words "Zhen Guo Gongfu".
"Even if it's a public account, can't you afford a set of tea cups? As for you to be so fussy about it? Look at how you look like the second wife of the Zhenguo Palace now?" I'm going crazy day by day, facing him.
The nose of the head of the family muttered.
"Then from the second master's point of view, what should the second lady's style be?" Mrs. Chu looked at Luo Jinzhong with a low eyebrow and asked.
"What? Do you think the second lady is not comfortable enough?" Luo Jinzhong made a fuss.
"Second Master is angry outside, why bother to return home and vent it on me?" If you have the ability, you should vent it outside.
Luo Jinzhong drove the Duke back because he didn't give him face when he was in Ning'an Hall, so he was furious at this moment. He originally threw a tea cup to vent his anger, but he didn't expect that the Chu family would not
You know how to comfort him with gentleness and carelessness, but instead you mock him with mockery. What's the point of this?
"Do you even look down on me? Nowadays everyone looks down on me." He is obviously a member of the Zhenguo Government, so why are you not allowed to participate in the handling of his sister's incident? What's the rationale for this?
Luo Jinzhong only focused on getting angry, but didn't think about it carefully. His brain was as if he had inherited it from the old lady. With him around, it would be better, but Luo Jinzhong couldn't see it.
, always felt that everyone looked down upon him.
"I naturally look up to the second master. If I look down on the second master, I will not marry into the Duke's palace as the second wife."
He thought Mrs. Chu was still going to say something negative to him, but he didn't expect that she actually softened her words. This made him use the topic no matter what, so he could only sit in his seat and wanted to take a cup of tea and take a sip of tea to cover up his embarrassment.
, but he felt lonely. Because he lost his temper before, after Mr. Chu came in, all the servants inside left. Now he doesn’t know what to do.
"Why should the Second Master be angry? This matter is definitely not as simple as you know. Since the Duke doesn't want you to participate, it's for your own good."
"Whose woman are you? How can you talk to him? What do you mean, for my own good, for my own good, but he won't let me listen?"
"Second Master, what are you talking about? Why are you so troublesome? Why do I talk to others? I am wholeheartedly for you, Second Master, but how can you not understand my painstaking efforts? Like the Duke of Guo, he won't let you
Isn't it just for you to participate? Isn't that sister-in-law the sister of the Duke of Guo? Isn't it just your sister? The Duke of Guo will naturally turn to the concubine. You have to know that the He family..."
Mrs. Chu stopped when she said this. Instead of interfering with Luo Jinhui and the others, she could see more things clearly. It was obvious that the He family wanted to take advantage of the Duke's mansion, and wanted the Duke's
It is impossible for the master to compromise. Naturally, there will be opportunities to attack. If this is the past of her family, why not give benefits to others? How many benefits can the Duke's government give to outsiders?
Wouldn’t it be nice to keep it to yourself?
Luo Jinzhong was still stretching his neck, waiting for Mrs. Chu's analysis. Unexpectedly, people said that this most critical part was broken. Isn't this heart-breaking?
"Tell me, why are you mute when you talk about this?" Luo Jinzhong said dissatisfied.
"Speaking of this, naturally I can only understand but not express it. Second Master, please think about it for yourself. I still have something to do and have to go see my sister-in-law, so I will take my leave first." Mrs. Chu stood up and bowed, turning around without taking away a single cloud.
In addition to the courtyard gate, head straight towards Liuguang Courtyard.
"It's unreasonable. It's disrespectful and wanton. I'm a man of heaven. I don't respect heaven. Are you trying to... slap your nose in your face?" Luo Jinzhong was so angry that he shook his sleeves. He almost said the wrong thing and went into the void with a guilty conscience.
After looking at it, he found out that the last time the Duke called him a fool, he naturally heard that someone was monitoring him. It was self-evident who this person was.
But when Mrs. Chu walked outside the gate of Liuguang Courtyard, she was not as comfortable and strong as in front of Luo Jinzhong. Instead, she hesitated. The little maid outside the hospital saw it and reported it to Lan Gu.
Lan Gu now doesn't know what to say to Mrs. Chu.
In the past, when she saw his wife, she would scream at the sky and the earth, but now she is much more sensible. This person has been standing outside for most of the day. No matter whether she comes in or not, she has to tell her master.
"Huh? You said it's the Chu family?" Madam Guogong leaned on the small platform and closed her eyes to rest.
"Madam, it's the second madam." After Lan Gu finished speaking, she took a few steps back and waited for her master's order.
"Don't worry about her. If you want to come in, you will come in naturally." She had just sent a few children out, so she rested on this small cave for a while. It would be better not to come in now.
So as not to disturb her.
As a result, as soon as the Duke's wife finished thinking about it, the little maid outside reported it, and the second lady asked to see her.
"Okay, I don't have time to spare today." The Duke's wife stood up and took a sip of tea to refresh herself.
Mrs. Chu was brought in by her servants.
"Sister-in-law." This is another standard etiquette.
"Come and sit down." After saying this, the Duke's wife raised her hand and signaled for people to bring the tea.
"Why are you looking for me now?" The Duke's wife took another sip of tea. She didn't feel sleepy at first, but now she actually felt sleepy.
"Sister-in-law, didn't I ask you to look at two for me last time? I'll let Ming Wu pick this one..." Mrs. Chu said quickly.
