Chapter 218: Dilemma
"What's going on?" In the Jingci Courtyard, Mrs. Jiang looked at the third lady Jiang Lin's whose eyes were a little red, and saw that her face was a little haggard, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Did something happen last night?" Do you have anything to say to me? ”
Because of the catastrophe ten years ago, the string in Mrs. Jiang's mind has always been tight.
Last night, a thief broke into the house, and after she received the news, she couldn't sleep anymore, and ordered someone to investigate it thoroughly.
However, after tossing a big pass, I got nothing.
The thief finally fled without a trace, and nothing was lost in the mansion, but this result could not satisfy Mrs. Jiang.
If something was really lost in the house, she might be able to feel more at ease.
However, nothing was lost!
This made her heart linger for a long time, hanging in the air, and spent the night in fear, for fear that the person who broke into the mansion would leave something behind in the waiting mansion.
No, after the day was just dawn, she opened her eyes, and anxiously asked people to find her three daughters-in-law, and ordered them to search carefully all over the mansion, and quietly search, so that no one could hide anything that could bring disaster to the mansion in a place they didn't know.
The catastrophe ten years ago was too great a blow to Weiyuan Houfu, and Mrs. Jiang, who lost two sons in a row, really couldn't bear the same catastrophe again.
The third lady, Jiang Lin, got up early in the morning to toss, and last night she always remembered what Jiang Zhengou had mentioned, so she didn't have a good rest at all.
Before, she had already told the old lady that she was okay with her sister-in-law and sister-in-law, and there was nothing abnormal.
However, after leaving Jingci Courtyard with her eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, she had no way to relax at all, and wanted to take a good breath, but the things hanging in her heart made her so anxious that she couldn't even drink a sip of water.
No, she didn't even use her lunch, and hurried to the Jingci Courtyard again.
"Auntie......"
The third lady stood in front of Mrs. Jiang, she almost shouted with a crying voice, and the rest of the words were pressed in her heart, and she couldn't say it anyway.
When Mrs. Jiang heard the third lady Jiang Lin call her aunt, she couldn't help but wonder in her heart, and secretly thought in her heart: Could it be that there is something tricky in the mansion that she can't solve?
Before, didn't you say that the house is normal, and there is nothing more than it shouldn't have?
Why is it now that it looks like it has been hit hard?
Although Mrs. Jiang was very puzzled in her heart, her face was still calm, she leaned on the half-used pillow and did not make a sound, just waiting for the third lady Jiang Lin to calm down and tell her what she wanted to say.
"Auntie, please help us!"
The third lady, Jiang Lin, approached Mrs. Jiang's side and "pounced"
Knelt on the ground with a bang and knelt at the feet of Old Taijun Jiang.
"What's going on? What the hell is going on? ”
Seeing that the third lady Jiang Lin clan made such a big scene, Old Taijun Jiang couldn't help but wonder in her heart.
*"The lord is bent on passing on the title to Mingbo, and he only hopes to take a step back in this way to save the family's affection. But, auntie, things are not as simple as the old man thinks! ”
The third lady, Jiang Lin, knelt on the ground and told Mrs. Jiang about the cause of the incident, the process, and the final result of Jiang Zhengou.
After listening to the words of the third lady Jiang Lin, Mrs. Jiang didn't speak for a long time, she was silent, and she only felt very irritable in her heart.
"Auntie, Houfu suffered back then, and it was the old man who ran for Houfu regardless of a single qiē and washed away his grievances for Houfu. Not to mention that the whole house has to thank the lord for his kindness. It's just that back then, Mingbo was already fifteen years old, although he hadn't finished yet, but he was also a half-old boy, if the emperor was really willing to pass the title to Dafang, he could directly let Mingbo succeed Wei Yuanhou at that time, but the emperor didn't do it, why is this? ”
The third lady, Jiang Lin, has always been smart, she thought about it for a night, and finally came up with an idea that could move the old lady.
She first mentioned the emperor, telling the old lady Jiang Zhengou that Wei Yuanhou was the emperor's will, and then complained half-truthfully: "Auntie, if it weren't for the old man succeeding Wei Yuanhou, our three rooms would really not fight for anything, don't think about anything, just divide it like that, and it won't be much worse than now." Even if I can't touch the light of the Houfu, I won't complain. But now ......"
The huge Houfu, she just took over the power of the mansion from the hands of the old lady, it was really crying without tears, the account books of the public middle school were clearly placed in front of her, and they were all red letters.
If it weren't for her secretly selling her dowry, and all kinds of ways to do it, not to mention the wealth of the Houfu, no one would have survived the difficult days at the beginning.
Well, now all the hard days are over.
The big room, the second room, one by one, set their eyes on their third room, wanting to take back this title.
Hehe, it's really a shameless!
"Don't worry about this matter, if Zhengou mentions it with me, I will discuss it with him."
Mrs. Jiang heard the complaint in the words of the third lady Jiang Lin, she frowned, and felt a little embarrassed, after all, the palms and backs of her hands were all meat, and the two rooms and three rooms of the big house belonged to her relatives, and if she stood on either side, she would be blamed by the other two parties.
"Auntie, in fact, even if the lord really wants to return the title to Mingbo, I have nothing to complain about. After all, this has been the inheritance of the family business since ancient times, and our three rooms are not qualified to fight for anything at all. ”
The third lady Jiang Lin saw that the old lady was a little tired of herself, and quickly eased her tone, she did not leave immediately, but continued: "Auntie, I can't hold my breath today, and I think about it for a while, and I am dissatisfied in my heart, but don't be angry, and you must not tell the master about my gaffe today, otherwise, the master will definitely annoy me." ”
The third lady Jiang Lin didn't calm down in the end, and grabbed Jiang Zhengou to talk to Jiang Laotaijun, although these words were soft, but in fact, they didn't really give up on the title, and they didn't really want to let go.
It's just that she has always been a good person, she is the same in front of Jiang Zhengou, she is the same in front of Jiang Lao Taijun, and she is another when she manages the subordinates of the Manchu Mansion.
"I know, I won't let Zhengou embarrass you."
Old Taijun Jiang understood what the third lady Jiang Lin meant, nodded slightly, and then waved her hand again, asking her to retreat.
"Auntie, then I'll retire first!"
Telling the old lady what she meant, the third lady Jiang Lin's whole person was much more relaxed, and seeing that the old lady was still very protective of her, she retreated very gratefully.
In her opinion, everything she should have said has already been said, no matter what, their lord's title is sealed by the emperor, even if the big house and the second room are about to move, they can't help but put the emperor in their eyes.
What's more, now that the lord is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, even if the big room and the second room have different intentions, is it possible to pull the master down now?
The more the third lady Jiang Lin thought about it, the more relieved she felt, and for a while she thought that she hadn't slept well all night because of this incident, and she couldn't help but feel that she was still too "tender"
some, just a little bit of things made her messy.
* "Alas! ”
After the third lady Jiang Lin retreated, Mrs. Jiang let out a long sigh, her brows tightened, and she didn't let go.
She is also very embarrassed in her heart, her son and grandson want to fight, what can she do?
Rich and rich!
It's all those illusory riches that are standing in the eyes!
The old lady had a lot of sighs in her heart, thinking that Weiyuan Houfu had finally calmed down, and she really didn't want to make any more waves in the mansion.
However, people's hearts fluctuate, and only one title can make the big house, two bedrooms and three bedrooms turbulent in private.
Shaking her head gently, Mrs. Jiang really didn't have any way, she just felt that she was really powerless.
If you want to leave it alone, you don't care about anything, whether it's your son or grandson, they can take care of themselves.
But no!
If you really don't care about it, I'm afraid that this Weiyuan Houfu is really going to disperse!
"Old lady, the waiting master is here!"
Just when Mrs. Jiang was in a dilemma, the maid outside the door reported that Jiang Zhengou had come over.
"Mother, are you in good spirits?"
Jiang Zhengou came in from outside, and just saw Jiang Lao Taijun's brows furrowed, his face was a little ugly, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said with concern: "Mother, I see that your face is not very good, did someone make you angry?" ”
"No one me off."
Listening to her son's words of concern, Mrs. Jiang's heart was both relieved and sad.
She was supposed to have three sons, but now she had only one son by her side.
"Mother, since your old man is in good spirits, my son has something I want to discuss with you......"
Jiang Zhengou sat on the left hand side of Old Taijun Jiang, he looked at Old Taijun Jiang and solemnly said what he thought last night, and mentioned what Jiang Lin had already told Old Taijun before.
"Mother, my son thinks, Bo Ge'er is also in his twenties, is it okay to find a good life and do this?"
Jiang Zhengou didn't plan to wait until he was old and then pass on this title to Dafang, but thought that it was now, find a good life, and end this matter.
"Why did you talk about this in a good way?"
Although Mrs. Jiang already knew Jiang Zhengou's thoughts, for the sake of the third lady Jiang Lin, she could only pretend to be surprised, so that Jiang Zhengou would not see that she already knew.
"Mother, I think so, this title was originally a big house, and I will return it to the big house as soon as possible, which will save Brother Hua from complaining in the future, and make Brother Hua and Brother Bo lose their harmony!"
