Chapter 31: The Old Lady Doubts the Heir

"Okay, then I'll work hard for you."

"This is what a daughter-in-law should do, not hard."

When the old lady saw that Liu's compliment, her mood suddenly became much more relaxed, and she looked at Liu's a lot more pleasing to the eye, and then asked her some ordinary things just like an ordinary mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talking.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and then Liu said goodbye and left.

As soon as the second lady Liu left the plum garden, she returned to her room in a fit of rage, drove the subordinates away, closed the door, and cursed fiercely: "That old pious woman, why don't you die?" Why didn't she die? "A hideous look on his face.

"Be quiet, ma'am, lest the wall have ears!" Mama Liu worriedly stepped forward to persuade and handed over a glass of water.

Liu Shi drank the water in one go, she was in a better mood, her face slowly returned to normal, sat down, handed the cup to Mama Liu, she thought a little in her eyes, and said to Mama Liu: "Mama Liu, has this old pious woman always suspected that Li Guangyi's heir has something to do with me?" ”

"......" Mama Liu lowered her head and did not say anything.

Liu said to himself indifferently: "Before, every time the old goddess begged me to do something, she would force me to comply, and she would use the official positions of her two sons to talk to me every time. What she cares about most is the official position of her two sons, and now she ...... But suddenly it was pulled to the heir. Did she doubt me? ”

"......" Mama Liu was still silent.

"Mama Liu, speak? Are you not doing things cleanly? What did she find out? That's why she doubts me? Liu's tone became stern, and he looked at Mama Liu with unkind eyes.

"Madame!" Mama Liu immediately knelt down, with a look of trepidation: "The old slave will not leave any traces of his work, and so many years have passed, if the old lady really knows something, with her character, she would have been difficult to Mrs. you a long time ago, how could you be so amiable to Mrs. you like now?" ”

As she spoke, she knelt forward and walked forward, with pleading and urgency in her eyes: "Madam, think about it, the old lady stands in the position of the Li Mansion, her eldest son has so many heirs, sons-in-law, and concubines. But on the second son's side, although there are also aunts, there are only two concubines...... The rest of the people were basically not half male and half female, so ......"

"That's why she suspects that it has something to do with you, Madame, it's just her suspicion, she has absolutely no evidence. Madam, it's definitely not that the old slave is not at ease with things......"

Hearing Mama Liu's analysis, Liu felt that it was right, it seemed that she was wrong to blame Mama Liu, she nodded, stood up, walked over in person, helped Mama Liu and said: "Mama Liu, stand up, you don't need to be so afraid, I naturally believe you." ”

"Thank you, Madame, for believing in the old slave!" Mama Liu also stood up tremblingly, for the second lady Liu, she naturally knew her character after following her for so long. The work is vicious, decisive, and very thorough, and few people can find out.

If she was relieved and believed in herself, she would no longer doubt herself, and she would still believe in what she does.

Although she has done so many things with the second lady, she does not regret it, if there is no second lady, she ...... Not only did he die, but even the people in his family followed him.

"Well, since the old lady wants me to bring all the daughters of the Li Mansion, just bring it, I believe Mrs. Chen won't mind, you just go and prepare some more gifts."

"Yes, ma'am."

"By the way, you go to the old lady's vault to get some good things, and then let the old lady know, so that she will also have a pain."

"Madame, this must make her sad."

"How can she take her granddaughter to a banquet without a little gift for admission?"

"Madame's clever plan."

"Okay, you go down."

"Yes, ma'am."

The other people in the Li Mansion, knowing that they could go to Mrs. Chen's banquet, immediately took action, making clothes, buying jewelry, in short, everyone's faces were beaming, and their happy energy was better than the atmosphere of the New Year.

On the other hand, Li Luobing, she knew that she could go out, she was not excited, and most of the time, she hid in Li Guangyi's study to read books.

However, most of Li Guangyi's books are military books, and Li Luobing is not interested in those things about marching and fighting. She is also interested in history books and those wild histories about history.

However, she didn't find any inexplicable books about herself, only some celebrity histories about the creation of this dynasty. It is said that the Wu family in the capital is a mysterious family, but this family is mysterious and has very few heirs. When Li Luobing still wanted to find some mysterious events about this witch family, she found that there was no record of this, so she had to give up.

Soon, it was the day of Mrs. Chen's banquet, and the second lady of the Li Mansion, Liu, with a group of daughters of the Li Mansion, drove towards the mansion of the Chen Mansion with a group of flowers......

At the same time.

Witch Family:

"Grandmother, grandmother!" A five-year-old little milk baby pulled the arm of an old lady with silver hair who looked to be in her nineties, but was in good spirits and full of red face, and said, "The hexagram says to go to this place!" ”

"Oh?" The old lady lowered her head and looked at the hexagram that little Lori threw on the table, she couldn't understand anything. Retracted his gaze and looked at the map of Xiao Lori's finger, that place happened to be the Chen family's mansion, could it be that the Wu family's first opportunity was in the Chen family's mansion?

"Mingyue, are you sure it's today, in the Chen family's mansion?"

"Grandmother, yes, the hexagram says yes." The five-year-old nodded.

"Okay, good, then Mingyue, will grandmother take you out to play today?" The old lady touched the little girl's head and asked with a kind smile, but a trace of worry flashed in her wise eyes and quickly disappeared.

"Yes, yes! Something delicious again. The five-year-old girl looked at the old lady with an innocent smile and clapped her hands incessantly.

The two grandparents and grandchildren said a few more words, and someone took the five-year-old girl down to change her clothes, and the old lady instructed her subordinates with a serious face: "Tell them to prepare, Mingyue and I are going to Chen's Mansion today!" You're going to post right away! ”

Although it is said that the visit on the same day and the post on the same day are really hasty. However, I hope that the reputation of the Wu family can make the Chen Mansion welcome him.

"Old lady!" The witch butler stepped forward and said, "The Chen Mansion is holding a banquet today...... The old lady can go to the banquet in the name of going to the banquet. ”

"What?" The old lady stood up in surprise: "Chen Mansion is a banquet today?" ”

"Yes!" Butler Wu nodded.

The old lady sighed, and thought to herself: Mingyue is still very young and her ability is not enough, but now she can hexagram it, it is already good.

Naturally, many people came to the banquet, so it means that this person is in this banquet...... It's so hard to find that person out of so many! However, no matter what, she has to give it a try, for the sake of the Wu family, whether she is really busy or not, she has to go to this banquet.

Maybe Mingyue will be close to this person?

Thinking of this, the old lady's expression calmed down, she slowly sat down again, and instructed the witch housekeeper: "Okay, you prepare gifts, and Mingyue and I will go to the banquet in the Chen Mansion in private." ”

"Yes, old lady!" The witch steward replied respectfully and withdrew.

The old lady was left alone, sitting in her chair, the dappled light of the morning sun shining at her feet, and she still sat quietly, her face not happy or sad, like a statue that had weathered the weather.

Yanwang Mansion:

"Yang Zhen, what did you say?" The man with the mask asked Yang Zhen again in surprise who had reported the situation to him.

"Back to the master, according to the report of the people near the Wu family, it is said that the old lady of the Wu family is going to take Wu Mingyue to attend the banquet in the Chen Mansion." Yang Zhen replied respectfully again: "Now that the carriage has set off, it has been made clear, on the carriage, it is Mrs. Wu and Wu Mingyue. ”

"What the hell is going on? The old lady of the Wu family also went to the Chen Mansion in person? She has never gone out except for the emperor's summons, how could she suddenly go out? Is something big happening again? The masked man muttered to himself, then took off the mask on his face and put it on the table, revealing a handsome face, a pair of narrow eyes, all of which were full of deep light at this time: "Since the old lady Wu is out of the horse, I want to go and see what she wants to do?" ”

"Yes, master!"

"Yang Ning!"

"Lord Wang!" Yang Ning immediately walked in quickly from the outside of the secret room.

"Yang Ning, didn't you say before that the Chen family had an invitation to hand it to King Yan, saying that King Yan would be allowed to attend the banquet held by Mrs. Chen? What is it called? The handsome man touched his chin and asked with a bright glint in his eyes.

"Yes, my lord! Mrs. Chen's banquet is called the Hundred Flowers Banquet, and she not only invited you, but also other princes. According to the informant, the other princes did not plan to attend this banquet, and only King Ning planned to attend. Yang Ning reported.

"Could it be that Old Lady Wu is for King Ning?" Yan Wang Chu Ruoyu stretched out his slender hand and knocked on the table, with a trace of doubt in his eyes: "But King Ning, he only likes Danqing, likes wind flowers and snow moon?" Or is he also pretending like me? Old Lady Wu went to the banquet of the Chen Mansion with him? ”

Yang Zhen and Yang Ning didn't answer, quietly waiting for their master to finish thinking.

"Yang Zhen, you go and inform Murong Liuyun and let him also attend the banquet."

"Yes, master."

"Yang Ning, you go and get ready, and I will also participate in the Hundred Flowers Banquet." Chu Ruoyao hooked the corners of her mouth and laughed: "It seems that Li Guangyi's daughter Li Luoxia will participate in such a banquet, and when the time comes, see if she has a seven-trick heart as the legend says!" There was still a hint of indescribable tenderness in his eyes.
