Chapter Twenty-Five: Are You Qualified to Ask?
Mrs. Tao should be in her fifties, but she looks like she is in her early forties. The blood relationship between her and Queen Jiang can be seen at a glance, and she is the queen Jiang when she is older.
It's just that unlike Queen Jiang's queenly aura, Old Madam Tao has a kind expression and a kind tone. The mother and daughter are not shocked in the same place - even if they saw the juniors who claimed to go to the mirror lake to watch the excitement turned back angrily and brought a little girl with eyes, Mrs. Tao still smiled and groaned: "Yo, why did you come back so early today?" Didn't they all say that the kitchen doesn't have to open lunch for you? β
He glanced out and smiled, "What about them?" Why are you just a few back? Only then did he ask Qiu Yulan, "I look at this child?" β
Jiang Qisheng glared at Qiu Yulan fiercely, and said first: "Grandmother, this is the Ningyi County Lord next door!" The eighteenth sister kindly asked her to go to the Begonia Word Meeting with her sister, and she turned out to be good! I glanced at our private room, and then ran to the nineteenth brother's side! Not only that, but she also instigated the nineteenth brother to scold me and Cousin Tao for not being strict in their training......"
"Seventeenth sister!" Qiu Yulan had a calm face and was about to speak, but Jiang Yashuang interrupted Jiang Qisheng's words expressionlessly, and said lightly, "I respect you as a cousin, so let you explain the situation first, but I didn't let you talk nonsense!" β
When Mrs. Tao saw her cousin and brother arguing in front of her, the smile on her face gradually faded, and she frowned and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Isn't it okay to go out? It's only been a few hours, why did you pinch it up? β
Jiang Qisheng said aggrievedly: "Grandmother, look at the nineteenth brother! He had never spoken to his family like that before! β
Qiu Yulan secretly scolded her for being despicable and vicious - just look at Jiang Yashuang's reaction to Empress Jiang after beating Gu Yan and Deng Yi, you can know how protective the Jiang family is! Even if Old Madam Tao didn't have any ill will towards her before, when she heard this, she would feel that she had caused the rift between their sister and brother!
In this case, how to get the sibling back together? That, of course, is cleaning up outsiders!
She quickly thought about how she could refute itβbut no matter how eloquent she was, how could she withstand the partiality of her parents?
Jiang Qisheng made it clear that she wanted to put her to death, and when she saw that Mrs. Tao's face was slightly stiff, she tried harder and harder to complain: "Not only that, but the nineteenth brother is in Yunyi Building, and he wants to beat me for this autumn troll!" She choked up and cried, "Our good sister and brother have made trouble to this point for an outsider!" I don't know what face I will have to meet the elders in the future? β
She said while not forgetting the provocative and smug eyes that Chao Qiu handed over.
"Jiang Qisheng! If he has the opportunity one day, I will repay the slander and insult of today a hundredfold thousand! "Qiu Yulan secretly gnashed his teeth!
But after thinking about it again and again, she still felt that it was better for her not to open her mouth and wait: it would be best if Jiang Yashuang was willing to come out to answer; Jiang Yashuang didn't come out, no matter how beautiful and beautiful what she said as an outsider, it would be difficult not to be caught by Jiang Qisheng and continue to mess around-this is the sadness of the disparity in power!
However, just when Qiu Yulan was resigned to fate, Mrs. Tao gave her an accident - Mrs. Tao smiled and said kindly: "Yes, Xiao Nineteen is obedient when he is a child, and he doesn't fight with his family for anything." So you can't bully him, he's used to bullying, and now that he wants justice, you feel wronged, don't you? β
Saying this, Mrs. Tao didn't care about Jiang Qisheng and Tao Peibin's stunnedness, and beckoned to Jiang Yashuang, revealing her heartfelt love, "Shuang'er is coming to grandmother, good boy, you have always been generous and sensible, who made you angry like this?" Tell your grandmother and your grandmother will call your shots! β
Jiang Yashuang really sat down as he said, and Mrs. Tao hugged him weakly, and said: "Grandson was supposed to go to Yunyi Building with Starling today......" He roughly explained what happened, and said lightly, "I thought that although this matter is embarrassing, it is not unexplainable." As a result, the seventeenth sister and Cousin Tao repeatedly insulted the county lord of Ningyi, and even wanted to take the initiative not to say anything to Ningyi County, and said that the grandson was confused by the county lord of Ningyi! This is just nonsense! The grandson couldn't tell them clearly, so he had no choice but to come back and beg his grandmother to call the shots. β
He added, "Lord Ningyi also wants to ask his grandmother to make the decision and thoroughly investigate who is the person who locked his grandson and her in the 'Curling Offering Jade'!" β
Old Madam Tao glanced at Qiu Yulan at this time, and said with a light smile: "This is natural! How can my Jiang family be calculated? The county lord of Ningyi is also a noble daughter of this dynasty, how can someone frame and slander her?! β
Jiang Qisheng said angrily: "Grandmother! The matter has not been clarified yet, who knows if it was a slander, or if the county lord of Ningyi deliberately did it in order to get along alone with the nineteenth brother? β
"The person who called the county lord of Ningyi downstairs is the person who is the Zheng'er?" Old Madam Tao asked slowly.
"Yes, but ......"
Old Madam Tao snorted: "I remember that the subordinates in front of her have seen the county lord of Ningyi twice at most, and only three times today, why do you think that the descendants of our family who have accumulated years will be so confused that they don't even know who the master is?!" β
Jiang Qisheng heard the beating in her tone, and her heart was not angry, she only lowered her head and was silent, but she refused to ask for guilt.
Old Madam Tao didn't care about her silent resistance, and said idly: "Since this matter has come to me, then I naturally can't ignore it-Mother Hu, you take Chaohai's post to Yunyi Building, be sure to find out!" "Chaohai is the word of Qin Guogong.
"Auntie!" Before Mrs. Tao's words fell, and Mother Hu behind her had not had time to receive the order, Tao Peibin suddenly said, "I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this - I'm just upstairs, and we're also afraid that Brother Nineteen will be deceived, so we're in a hurry." Now that we know what happened, why bother with it? In case it spreads, ...... to Brother Nineteen" Speaking of this, she reluctantly glanced at Qiu Yulan before continuing, "For the county lord of Ningyi, it's all a matter of ruining reputation!" β
Old Madam Tao smiled and asked, "What do you two think?" β
Jiang Yashuang hesitated and looked at Qiu Yulan - this kind of thing is actually nothing to ruin his reputation or discredit, to put it mildly, the reputation of the Jiang family's children has long been almost ruined by Jiang Yadan, and it is really painless for the Jiang family to have a child who gets along with the county lord who has a marriage contract.
So the main thing is the autumn trolling.
Qiu Yulan didn't blink his eyes: "Thank you for the old lady's understanding, but Lulan thinks she is worthy of her heart!" In order to prevent the late father and mother from being implicated by unfilial daughters and humiliating under the nine springs, Yulan also wants to ask the old lady to investigate thoroughly! β
Old Madam Tao looked at her with a smile: "Since you have brought out your deceased parents, you can see your determination!" But do you know: this investigation, whether you are true or false, your name will inevitably be discussed by everyone! β
"Those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid. Now I only want justice! For this reason, I am willing to break my bones, and I hope that the old lady can fulfill it! "Autumn Dragging!
Jiang Qisheng and Tao Peibin accused her of deliberately locking the door so that she could be alone with Jiang Yashuang, if she hadn't decisively asked for a thorough investigation just now, maybe Jiang Yashuang would have suspected her!
Now that I'm in front of Mrs. Tao, if I say a few words, I won't check it, and I don't know what it has been arranged into when I look back! How could Qiu Yulan be willing to suffer such a loss!
Besides, he and Jiang Yashuang were really locked by Jiang Yadan's opponents? How do you look at it, it's all these two cousins shouting to catch thieves?!
After listening to her words, Mrs. Tao looked at her niece and granddaughter: "Since they themselves are not worried, this matter will be so good." β
Tao Peibin suddenly became anxious: "Lord Ningyi! You want to be innocent! But have you thought about it for Brother Nineteen? You're married! At that time, who won't say that Brother Nineteen plotted to rob other people's fiancΓ©es?! Do you want Brother Nineteen to inherit such a reputation? β
"The old lady said, General Jiang Xiao and I are not afraid, why is Miss Tao so worried?" Qiu Yulan lowered his eyes and said softly, "What's more, such a thing, whether it is discussed by everyone or pursued by the Deng family, I should bear the brunt of the first!" β
Jiang Yashuang said in a deep voice: "Cousin Tao, since grandmother has already made the decision, I think you should not worry too much." β
Tao Peibin was stunned, and her delicate face suddenly turned red!
Jiang Yashuang's words were tantamount to telling her that she was not qualified to take care of this matter at all!
Isn't it? Jiang Qisheng still has the identity of a cousin, Tao Peibin is not only not a member of the Jiang family, but she is also younger than Jiang Yashuang in terms of age, Jiang Yashuang's private affairs, where did she come from?
"Nineteenth brother, why do you say that about Cousin Tao?" Jiang Qisheng couldn't help but say, "She is also kind!" β
Old Madam Tao asked lightly, "Is there anything else?" β
Jiang Qisheng choked, lowered his head and said, "It's gone." β
"Then you all go back, it's time for lunch, don't miss the meal." Old Madam Tao unceremoniously ordered the eviction of customers, and smiled lovingly at Jiangya Shuang, "Shuang'er stayed to accompany her grandmother?" β
Jiang Yashuang bowed: "My grandson has been hungry for your roasted eggplant here for the past two days." β
None of the granddaughters and nieces were able to keep eating, so Qiu Yulan naturally wouldn't be uninteresting, so she got up and said goodbye.
She returned to the Xihe Mansion with a gloomy face, and when she entered the courtyard, she saw that on the corridor outside the boudoir, Sheng Shushui and Qiu Mingzhu were holding a silk fan, leaning on the railing, and talking with a smile.
The two seem to be affectionate, like good sisters who have been together for many years.
"Now that there are other people who come to study this boudoir, it seems that it is inconvenient not to build a wall. We are being stared at in and out here, and they are so idle! Qiu Yulan's heart was not happy, and when he saw this scene, he said to Xia Ran, who came out, "Go back and find a craftsman!" β
Xia Ran agreed-Sheng Shushui and Qiu Mingzhu over there also saw her, Qiu Mingzhu didn't see it at first, Sheng Shushui bowed to this side and saluted.
However, both of them heeded her warning, and did not dare to go down the cloister and enter the courtyard without permission.
"By the way, I'm going out today, didn't I tell Mr. Shao that the museum would be closed for a day?" Just as he was about to enter the house, Qiu Yulan suddenly thought that his face changed, "Why did Mr. Shao still open the museum?" Even if he had seen Shao Yuemei's connections, at this moment, Qiu Yulan also had the idea of driving away this female gentleman: This is too much to take yourself seriously, right?
Fortunately, Xia Ran hurriedly explained: "Mr. Shao is closed, Miss Sheng and Miss Four came over today to ask for homework, and Mr. Shao also said that he was tired and ignored it." But they stayed and waited for Mr. Shao......"
"Let them go!" Qiu Yulan said with a gloomy face, "Look at their idle appearance is serving people?!" And Mr. Shao doesn't have a maid to serve? Or did I not give Mr. Shao someone to serve?! β
Xia Ran saw that she looked bad, so she hurriedly agreed, and walked towards Sheng Shushui and the others.
Qiu Yulan entered the house at this time, because she was in a very bad mood, and she didn't even bother to listen to Su He's whispering behind her to explain what happened after the two were separated, so she only ordered: "I want to be quiet, and call me again at dinner!" "When I walked into the inner room, I slammed the door shut!
