Under the cover of Ruan Qingyan, Qiu Yulan finally ate a meat meal. Leaving the General's Mansion unsatisfied, her heart was full of gratitude to her brother: "Cousin is so good! Definitely the best cousin in the world! ”

"I've been worried about this child for so long, I might as well let her eat back the meat!" In contrast, Ruan Qingyan was not in such a good mood as her, and after sending Qiu Yulan away, he sighed to Dong Ran, "If I knew this, I should have set rules for her: if she is obedient, she will often call her to come over and make a meat dish for her quietly, and if she is disobedient, she will only have green vegetables and tofu!" ”

Dong Ran covered his mouth and smiled: "When the county lord is still growing his body, it is inevitable that he will have some tongue desires. ”

"Next time she came and took the parrot away, it was easy to teach two auspicious words. As a result, she was stared at for a while, and she was so scared that she didn't dare to scream. Ruan Qingyan shook his head, and didn't say anything about Qiu Yulan, but asked, "How is the Yang family's side now?" ”

Dong Ran also smiled, and replied solemnly: "Yang Yifu's father Yang Hao knows that his daughter's death was caused by his niece, but Yang Hao has never learned or learned anything, and it is all thanks to the support of his brother Yang Tao that he is today...... Yang Tao promised to give him a fat job, and privately gave him a pair of twin sisters - Hengzhi's daughter is dead, and Yang Hao has promised to take over this matter for the Yang family's big house. ”

Speaking of this, she was a little worried, "In this way, even if Yang Yi's room is exposed, I am afraid that Yang Hao will be taken over." ”

Ruan Qingyan snorted: "Isn't Yang Yifu's biological mother still alive?" ”

"That Luan's is distressed about his own flesh and blood, and he can't afford to be on the bed for the past few days...... But she is just a concubine in the end, not to mention that she has long fallen out of favor. Dong Ran said, "What's more, although she wishes that Yang Yishu would die, she doesn't have the courage to burn jade." Otherwise......"

Ruan Qingyan said hesitantly: "Let the Luan clan wake up!" Now that she has fallen out of favor, she is just a concubine! Because her own daughter did something embarrassing, she couldn't think of following it - a ready-made reason to kill her mouth! The Yang family even killed Yang Yifu, would they care about her?! ”

Winter dyeing is busy.

The Yang family asked the Luan family to think for themselves, whether she was going to die on behalf of Yang Yimu, who was confused with her only biological daughter, or whether she was ashamed of being detained. In front of the hat, avenge their mother and daughter?! Ruan Qingyan said, "What about the Ding family?" How's it going? ”

"Ding Hanlin's favorite concubine Ge's asking price is outrageous, much higher than the amount set by your son." Winter Dye frowned slightly, "Actually...... The maid felt that the Ding family was different from the Yang family, and the Ding family did not come forward in the last court fight, so it was better to concentrate on dealing with the Yang family. ”

In fact, Ruan Qingyan did deliberately support Qiu Yulan to clean up the Yang family this time, but the purpose was not simply to repay the three young ladies of the Yang family for their disrespectful revenge against Qiu Yulan in the Xihe Palace-this is just incidental-mainly for the next dowry.

He didn't want to have such variables as his mother and Dong Yao again, so before he went to the door, he planned to find something to do for Qiu Mengmin's wife and prospective daughter-in-law's family, so that they wouldn't be idle to help one by one.

This will listen to Dong Ran's persuasion, but Ruan Qingyan shook his head: "If I haven't become Xue Xiang's disciple, it's okay, have you forgotten that Xue Xiang and the Ding family are also in-laws?" Although it is said that the Ding family has always followed Xue Xiang in political affairs, it is different in family affairs. ”

His eyes sank slightly, "Especially now that I have just entered the circle of Xue Xiang, my foundation is shallow. If you don't try to make the Ding family unable to open their mouths at that time, and when there is a showdown with Qiu Mengmin, the Ding family will come to the door and ask me to give face, do you say I will give it or not? If you give it, what will happen to my sister's property? If you don't give it, won't you just get into the career and end up with a grudge? ”

Dong Ran thought that because of the matter of Qiu Yulan, Ruan Qingyan had already formed a feud with the Empress Dowager Gu's faction, and if he offended the master's in-laws again, even if he was deep in the city, he would not have a good time in the future.

She thought for a moment and said, "That'...... Promise Ge? ”

Ruan Qingyan shook his head and said, "Just a concubine, dare to open your mouth?" Give her 10% of the amount I have originally set, and tell her that if she agrees, this time the matter will be settled; If she doesn't agree, Ding Hanlin is not the only concubine! ”

"But none of the other concubines are as favored as her." Dong Ran reminded, "Especially after Ding Hanlin's wife died three years ago, she has not renewed the strings, and the back house has always been the head of the Ge family, called the concubine, just like Mrs." ”

"If you are a lady, you are also a concubine." Ruan Qingyan said coldly, "Take the ninety percent that was originally intended to be given to the Ge family, take it to the eldest lady of the Qiaocheng Uncle's Mansion, and ask her to help, so that Ding Hanlin can continue the string as soon as possible, and he must continue the daughter of the official family, it is best to have the means and courage, and he can't tolerate people!" ”

Dong Ran asked knowingly: "When the time comes, you will be the opponent of the Ge family?" ”

"It's okay to do that, as long as she doesn't guess us." Ruan Qingyan said indifferently, "Although the eldest lady of the He family is good at money, she is well versed in business, and she has always kept her promises, as long as she collects the money, we don't have to worry about this matter." ”

"Since you can take that Ge clan and do something to that Miss Ding?" Dong Ran asked again, "After all, after May, she will be the county lord's sister-in-law." ”

Ruan Qingyan shook his head: "When she arrives at the Xihe Palace, it's not that she can't clean it up, so she doesn't have to rush to start." lest anyone be suspicious of his sister. ”

Fuyuzen said, "Yes." After thinking about it, he said, "After the housewarming of the Lian family was over, I have sent someone to ask Gongzi about the days of going to Xihe Palace." Now the county lord has returned...... This Chenguang? ”

"In five days." Ruan Qingyan narrowed his eyes and said, "It's only been a month since Miss Ding passed through. If it drags on any longer, it will sweep away the interest of the Ding family in marrying a daughter, but in the end, I still have to complain, I think the Lian family seems to have retreated a little recently, and it will become trouble if it drags on any longer. ”

Dong Ran sighed: "I think it's because I left the Jiang family's courtyard, and there is no Jiang family who can talk in front of me all day, for fear of offending many people and losing my official position again." She didn't say the rest of the words: the Lian family went to Beijing this time, first, they didn't dare to disobey the Jiang family; The second is to think of the repetition.

Now that Lian Jianhai and Lian Jianhao have official positions, they want to seek stability. Especially Wang Qingqian failed to enter the boudoir of Xihe Palace, although Lian Ding believed that Ruan Qingyan's brothers and sisters were for Wang Qingqian's good, but Lian Chen and others may not think so, there is more or less a gap here, not to mention, the recent disgrace of Qiu Yulan's reputation has also shaken the confidence of the Lian family to support her.

That is, Lian Chen promised to be full of words before, and he was embarrassed to step down at this time.

Don't take advantage of their hesitation to get things done, and Lian Chen turned around, and it was not so easy to borrow his seniority again.

The reason why Ruan Qingyan can focus on finding trouble for the Yang family and the Ding family before the cards are spread is also because he is afraid that when the two families say hello, the Lian family will not contribute to the work, so that Qiu Mengmin can see the flaws and branches.

"The Yang family asked the Luan family to think clearly, if she can't think clearly, she will pretend to ask the Yang family's big house to let her sober up!" Ruan Qingyan pondered for a moment and said, "On the Ding family's side, Ge Shi heard Ding Hanlin's words that he didn't move yet...... his face was expressionless, "When the time comes, drag her into the water!" ”

Winter Dye solemnly: "Yes! ”

After she returned to the Xihe Palace, she arrogantly summoned Sheng Shushui, announced that she did not plan to get involved in the affairs of the Yang family, and warned her not to slander her cousin by hearsay in the future.

When Sheng Shushui heard this, a look of surprise flashed on his face: "Are you saying that the person who is dealing with Yang Yi's room is not General Ruan Xiao?" ”

"My cousin is so talented!" Qiu Yulan sneered, "Then what point is Yang Yi's room worthy of my cousin from head to toe!" Two names sought after by countless people in Kyoto. The prostitute saw that my cousin was running along, and when it came to seduction, Yang Yi's room was nothing! ”

Sheng Shushui also has a bad relationship with Yang Yi's room, and he is famous for Qiu Yulan. The prostitute naturally didn't have any opinion on belittling Yang Yimu, she said thoughtfully: "If that's the case, then someone should want to deliberately frame General Ruan!" ”

Qiu Yulan said disdainfully: "My cousin's itinerary in the past few days is well documented, and I want to frame ......" Speaking of this, she frowned slightly, but Sheng Shushui said first: "If this is the case, then someone is going to deal with the Yang family." ”

"So what are you going to do? Go to Yang's house to report the news? Although Qiu Yulan didn't know Ruan Qingyan's actions these days, he was also a little aware of this, and it was not necessarily Ruan Qingyan who had an affair with Yang Yi's room, but the matter may not really have anything to do with him. I was wary of the same reaction.

However, Sheng Shushui smiled: "The county lord said that he laughed. Not to mention that my eldest aunt and cousin Yimuro never wanted to see me, even if they were willing to let me in - you said that I went to remind them of this, didn't it mean telling them that I knew about Yang Yimu? What will happen to me? ”

Qiu Yulan snorted: "You're not confused yet! In order to keep the reputation of Yang Yi's room, Yang Yifu, another young lady of the Yang family, was "self. It's over", what is the passing water?

"I just want to earn some private money and live in the future." Sheng Shushui smiled calmly, "If it's too dangerous, you naturally don't dare to touch it." Speaking of this, she pursed her lips, "It's a pity that I don't know who the person targeting the Yang family is this time, otherwise I can recommend myself to help, maybe I can share some hard-earned money?" ”

Qiu Yulan glanced at her: "If Yang Yi's room is exposed, not only will she and your aunt not be better, but even the Lu family will probably be affected, right?" ”

Sheng Shushui said casually: "I once fell into the pool when I was five years old, and if it weren't for the lack of clothes in the summer, I struggled to float again, and almost died. ”

"Oh?"

"If I fall on my own, or if someone accidentally touches it, forget it." Sheng Shushui sneered, "But it was my eldest aunt who watched Yang Yimur push me down - my grandmother reprimanded them afterwards, and they also said, anyway, with my background like this, living is to disgrace the Lu family, and even they have no face, so it is better to drown and worry about it...... Why can't I sell them, Lord Commander? ”

She bit her lower lip, "As for the Lu family, anyway, with me, the Lu family's face has already been lost." And even if I don't worry about it this time, will the Yang family be fine? You also said that day, the county lord, Yang Yi's room is really good, and the adulterer can still strengthen her in front of the many maids and wives around her? ! This is her own sin! ”

Qiu Yulan said noncommittally: "It's a pity that I don't know who the person behind this scene is, otherwise I wouldn't mind showing you a way to make money." ”

Sheng Shushui returned to his quiet and dignified smile in the blink of an eye: "Then you said, if I help first and turn back, will I be able to make up for it over there?" ”

"How do I know?" Qiu Yulan said lazily, "However, if you don't help, it will definitely not give you any benefits over there; Helped, maybe there was or maybe not? ”

"That's what the county lord said." Sheng Shushui smiled and got up to say goodbye, "It's getting late, I have to go back to accompany my grandmother." ”
