As soon as she entered Rui Yingtang, Ji Lan knelt down for the old lady with tears in her eyes, "Thank you Niang for giving that breath for Ah Cui and Ah Cheng, it's just that Wang Yueniang has such an ugly thing, I don't know if the Wang family will give up, I'm just afraid that the eldest uncle and the second uncle will be affected." Ji Lan choked up as she spoke.
The old lady said to Yun Jin on the side: "Why don't you go and help the third lady up." ”
After Ji Lan sat down, the old lady spoke: "It's all a family, no matter who is hurt, this is all hurting the hearts of our Shen family." You don't have to thank me, nor do you have to thank your uncle and second uncle, they all feel sorry for Ah Cui's niece. If the girl of our family tramples on it like this, and she can't even make a sound, even the ancestors will jump out in the grave and scold us unworthy descendants. ”
Ji Lan's face was hot when she heard this, and she knew that the old lady was scolding herself in disguise.
The old lady was very disappointed in Ji Lan, in the end, she was the daughter of a merchant family, she only talked about interests in everything, and she had no character at all, which was why she didn't allow Shen Ying to marry Ji Lan in the first place. Looking at Ji Lan, the old lady naturally remembered Ji Cheng, an aunt and nephew, Ji Lan couldn't even compare to a little girl. However, the old lady thought that Ji Lan was like this, and she didn't dare to expect too much from Ji Cheng, so she didn't want to ask Ji Cheng about his family.
Disappointment is disappointment, but after all, it is her daughter-in-law, and the old lady can't watch Ji Lan live in such a daze, she glanced at Yunjin and let the room of people who were waiting retreat.
Only then did the old lady speak again: "Alain, you must know that if a person has no backbone, even if he is powerful, people will look down on him from the bottom of his heart. Look at the Yan family and the Xu family of the previous dynasty, once they fall, what is left now? If you look at the Lu family and the Xiao family, although there have been many twists and turns, their roots have always been there, and their children and grandchildren are also fighting, and they soon made a comeback. This is the difference between those who have wind and those who don't. I'll also talk to you today, people like the Wang family won't last long, you don't have to interact with the people of the Wang family in the future, otherwise I'm afraid the third child will be dragged down by you in the future. ”
As soon as Ji Lan heard this, her tears stopped flowing, and she looked at the old lady stubbornly, she just dragged no one down and wouldn't drag Shen Ying down, who is her heart for? "Mother, I did all those things for the master, can I still do it for me?"
"Since it's for the third child, you shouldn't be so close to the people of the Wang family. The third child's ability can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, why do you have to touch the scenery of your relatives, but let people chew the root of their tongue behind their backs. The old lady said.
Ji Lan thought to herself, you also said that the third child has the ability, but why is this happening, isn't it clear to your old man? "Mother, my lord has been depressed over the years, you also said that he is a capable person, but no matter how capable he is, he can't resist the pressure of someone above him, I feel sorry for him, I feel sorry for him, I feel sorry for him, I ...... to him" before swallowing his anger. Although the excuse given by Ji Lan to stop Shen Zhuo and them from looking for the Wang family's theory at that time was that they were afraid of affecting the big house and the second room, but what the truth is, I am afraid that everyone knows it, and at this time, Ji Lan has no need to hide it.
The old lady frowned, how could she not see Ji Lan's heart knot. The palms and backs of the hands are full of meat, and the old lady can't do it, and the three sons are very good, but they are too good, so they are easy to break. The eldest Mingrui is fruitful, the emperor let him still have the princess, and gave the military power to the second child, the second child is a generous person, these years guarding the northwest, not letting foreign races step into my Central Plains, Daqin can not do without the Shen family, Emperor Jianping can see clearly, so the second child can't move. If the third child is called to get the will, and the second child is corresponding in the court, no emperor can rest assured.
Even if the emperor is relieved, the old lady herself is not at ease, for fear that the cunning rabbit will die and the lackeys will cook. The old lady is thinking about the overall situation, so she hasn't taken the road for the third child all these years, not only did she not go, but she also deliberately asked someone to press him.
But Ji Lan can't see the overall situation, only sees the selfish interests of her family, in order to be able to raise her eyebrows between the concubines, she has no overall situation, which makes the old lady very disappointed, but disappointed is disappointed, but the words in this can't be said clearly, after all, they are all their own sons.
The old lady listened to Ji Lan's words, and finally could only sigh lightly, "This person, you will know when you live to my age, you only want peace and security, and there is nothing better than the peace and security of the family." ”
But the old lady herself knows that this is an idea that people only have when they are old, and young people want to fight hard.
Ji Lan followed the old lady's words and said: "Yes, peace is a blessing, but this time something like this happened to the Wang family, they are used to being domineering, what impact will it have on our family?" Ji Lan was afraid that Shen Ying and Shen Jing would be affected.
The old lady looked at Ji Lan's eyes and didn't speak, Ji Lan herself knew that she was ashamed, and gradually lowered her head, after all, the old lady was angry for Shen Cui and Ji Cheng, but Ji Lan was afraid that she would be affected.
"Archer will take care of this, you don't have to worry." The old lady said lightly, "I'm tired, you can go out if you're fine." ”
Only then did Ji Lan know that Wang Yueniang's affairs were all done by Shen Che, and she wanted to see how Shen Che would end up with this matter. She didn't understand why the old lady was so partial to Shen Che, just because he was the sister-in-law of the big house and the son of the princess? It's just a gentleman who only knows how to eat, drink, and gamble, and let him do it, no wonder the means are so straightforward and scary, as if people don't know that it was the Shen family's people who did it.
According to Ji Lan, when Shen Zhuo and the princess go, where can Shen Che afford the Duke of Qi, sooner or later it will decline, and she will naturally have to find another way.
While Ji Lan was making her own calculations, Ji Cheng was thinking about who arranged Wang Yueniang's affairs, and the people who did it were none other than Shen Zhuo, Shen Yu, and Shen Che, the Duke of Qi. Although he couldn't say the reason, the first thing that Ji Cheng thought of was Shen Che.
And Ji Cheng also remembered that Shen Che saved her and Shen Cui at that time, and he mentioned Xiang Da Girl in the carriage, which shows that he had already guessed what was going on at that time, and this person's mind was not simple.
As for the Shen family's treatment of Wang Yueniang like this time, it is indeed very happy. Otherwise, even if the Shen family comes to the door to hold them accountable, then Wang Yueniang will be sent to the family temple at most, which is still heavy, if it is lighter, it will send her to marry farther.
Ji Cheng was happy in her heart, and danced the sword in the courtyard for a while at night, if it was cold today, she moved back to the small cross courtyard from the garden, and it was much easier to dance the sword. She was in a good mood, the dancing swords were much smoother and more comfortable, and she danced to her heart's content.
After dancing the sword, it was really enjoyable to take a comfortable bath. Ji Cheng was waited by Liu Ye'er to clean it, and when he saw Yu Qian'er take the milk and pour it into the bathtub, he asked, "Where did you find all this milk?" "Needless to say, it must have been silver again.
Yu Qian'er turned around and replied to Ji Cheng while pouring milk, "Aunt Guo in the big kitchen is filial." In the past, girls loved to use milk to bathe at home, but it was inconvenient to get here, and I hadn't used milk for a long time. The girl has been in a bad mood recently, and I accidentally mentioned it to Aunt Guo that day, and she said that she knew where to sell milk, so I asked her to buy it. ”
Now the people in the kitchen are very enthusiastic about Ji Cheng, a person who crosses the courtyard, money can make ghosts grind, plus Yu Qian'er has a sweet mouth and is used to coming to things, Ji Cheng's life is much more comfortable now than when he first came.
Ji Cheng didn't bother to say that Yu Qian'er, she was also kind, but other girls didn't have this kind of enjoyment, and she was too prominent just to have it, as if she was showing off her silver. There are too many people in this family to talk about it, and they have to scruple about everything, and it's really boring to think about it. In Jindi, even if the eldest lady of the Ji family eats dragon liver and phoenix marrow, no one will talk much.
Ji Cheng sighed lightly in his heart, there will be gains and losses, "Don't buy milk in the future, no one in the house uses it like this, you can't start this with me." ”
Yu Qian'er stretched her neck and said "oh", "Girl, you said that something happened to Miss Wang, what can you do in the future?" Yu Qian'er asked.
Yes, what should Wang Yueniang do, the most nerve-wracking thing about this matter is still the people of the Wang family. The second lady of the Wang family is such a baby daughter as Wang Yueniang, who has been pampered since she was a child, although her temper has been raised a little badly, but she is also a beautiful woman with both talent and appearance.
"Master, you have to be the master of Yue Niang. How dare the Shen family bully people like this, Yue Niang is going to commit suicide, if Yue Niang dies, I will put her body at the door of Shen's house, so that everyone in the world can see how black-hearted and shameless those people in the Shen family are, how can they do such a thing without the king's law-" Second Mrs. Wang's eyes were swollen from crying for the past two days, "I want to go to the palace and let Niang Niang make the decision for us-"
"Nonsense, Niangniang has a lot of bad things now, you don't have to trouble her." Wang Rong frowned and reprimanded, "Besides, do you have evidence that someone from the Shen family did this?" ”
This can be asked by the second lady Wang, if there is evidence, they would have entered the palace to face the saint, but the thing that Chen Bin and Wang Yueniang did, Mazi has not been found now, and it must have fallen into the hands of the Shen family, but the Shen family did this, there was no trace left, if it wasn't for Chen Bin to tell all the things they did, Wang Yueniang's experience was like a copy of Shen Cui, and they would not know that this matter was done by the people of the Shen family.
Since there is no evidence, if you want to face the saint, you have to tell what Wang Yueniang did to Shen Cui, so that Wang Yueniang is self-inflicted.
"What then, sir? Their family Shen Cui is fine now, our family Yue Niang is really hard, master, do you just let the Shen family go? Second Mrs. Wang cried and cried.
"Don't say it. If she wasn't stupid enough to move Shen Cui, would the Shen family be able to tear our faces apart? Niangniang is already difficult in the palace, we have easily won over the Shen family, and now we are all ruined by this rebellious girl, do you think Niangniang will stand up for her, don't dream, Niangniang may want to strangle her with her own hands. ”
Second Mrs. Wang understood what Wang Rong meant, "Then what should we do with Yue Niang?" What else does she have to live? Our Wang family's face was beaten like this, didn't they even dare to say anything? ”
