Chapter 44: Exchange
Thinking like this, the old lady's face softened a little.
Calm down after all.
"It's good that you can think like that." She sighed, "We have our problems, and now that you know about it, you should also understand that we have no ill intentions. ”
Song Anning smiled slightly, and he understood.
The old lady said tentatively: "The embroidery division ...... over there."
"Grandmother has always loved the younger generation, and she has no malice, but this huge Jiang Mansion, now the person in charge is not the grandmother, so that the granddaughter-in-law is inevitably a little sad, just like going to the Zhuangzi before, the grandmother may not know, but the granddaughter-in-law sees it really, that Mama Lin actually prepared torture tools and rotten medicine and other things on the Zhuangzi, to burn the granddaughter-in-law's face, you say, the person who can do such things, and let the granddaughter-in-law live under her hands with peace of mind?"
The old lady froze.
"You...... You know ......."
"Yes, I know."
At this moment, Song Anning no longer needed to deny it, looked at the old lady directly, and said in a deep voice: "So grandmother, do you still think that what I did today is very excessive?" People see me as a fish on the chopping block, so I'm really going to be slaughtered? ”
Old Lady: "......"
Her heart sank.
The face is not very good-looking.
"Then what do you mean ......"
"Let the mother-in-law hand over the power of the feed, the granddaughter-in-law will keep it secret, as for the embroidery department, the granddaughter-in-law will also ask them not to pursue it again, although the granddaughter-in-law has reported the case, but this is a family matter, as long as the granddaughter-in-law speaks, I believe they will not waste manpower anymore, and pursue it."
The old lady took a deep breath.
"Okay, I can promise you."
Song Anning pursed her lips.
The old lady said, "However, you must also promise me one condition. ”
"Grandmother, please."
"In the future, if Hua'er needs the help of the Song family, you must spare no effort."
Song Anning blinked slightly.
The deeper the smile on your face.
"Of course, we are husband and wife, and the granddaughter-in-law still understands the truth of both prosperity and loss."
"That's good."
The old lady seemed to suddenly remember something, and then looked at Song Anning, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.
"...... from the Prime Minister's Mansion"
"Miss Li is the daughter of the prime minister, her status is noble, and her character is naturally very noble, it should not be difficult to get along with such a person as a sister."
The old lady's eyes lit up, and a flash of surprise flashed across her face.
"What do you think?"
"Or else?" Song Anning still pretended to be a little lonely in the end, and said softly: "Since ancient times, isn't it normal for men to have three wives and four concubines?" Without Miss Li, there will be Miss Zhang and Miss Wang in the end, rather than that, it is better to be Miss Li from the beginning, Yu Fujun's career is beneficial, as long as the husband is good, I can be good, I also understand this. ”
The old lady was overjoyed.
I really didn't expect Song Anning to be so good.
She originally thought that it would be difficult to persuade Song Anning to be a concubine for Jiang Hua, after all, she was married by Ming Media, and she was hired by three media and six times, if she could really be a wife in this world, who would be willing to be a concubine?
But now, Song Anning took the initiative to propose it......
Of course, the old lady would not think that when Song Anning said this, she would let Miss Li be a concubine, and she would be his wife.
After all, she is the daughter of the prime minister!
She is a merchant girl, she can't say a good thing, she can marry the same man as the prime minister's concubine, it's all burning high incense, where can she let a noble lady of a high family stoop to her"
Therefore, the old lady took it for granted that she had taken a step back and was willing to give Jiang Hua a concubine in exchange for her own bright future.
The old lady smiled with joy.
"You can think like this, I'm very pleased, you're right, one is prosperous, one is lost, to be honest, your family is a merchant, even if you go home, the best result is just to marry a merchant, and you may not be able to marry the first marriage. In the future, if you give birth to a child and be a businessman, you can't raise your head for several generations. ”
"With Hua'er, although the child born in the future can only be a concubine, but Hua'er's identity is precious, even if it is a concubine, if you want to join the government or be an official in the future, it is not a matter of one sentence, you, everything is confused, only in this matter, finally enlightened."
A hint of ridicule flashed in Song Anning's eyes.
But he didn't say anything, which was a tacit acquiescence to the old lady's statement.
So, in the afternoon of the same day, the old lady directly announced that she would take back the Qin family's power and hand over the family power to Song Anning.
The Qin family naturally didn't do it, so he ran to the old lady's house at that time and asked her for an explanation.
The old lady was so annoyed by her that her brain hurt.
"I know you are wronged, but the grievances are temporary, Song Anning relented, saying that as long as she is given the power of the family, she can be a concubine for Hua'er, the Song family has a deep family background, and Hua'er's career will cost a lot of money in the future, this money, we can't ask the Li family, even if we dare to speak, is the Li family willing to take this money out?"
"Li Xiang's ability to marry his daughter to Hua'er is already very good, we can't be too greedy, so as not to cause disgust, offend the in-laws, and lose a good family business in vain, and it will be too late to regret it at that time."
When the Qin clan heard this, although he was still angry in his heart, he didn't want to say anything more.
"So, Mother let that little hoof climb over my head?"
The old lady sneered.
"What's the hurry, appease her first, solve the embroidery department, and then talk about it, in the future, when Hua'er becomes the marquis, do you want her to be in power, what position should be given to her, it's not Hua'er who has the final say, a woman is a woman after all, she is controlled by a man, and the honor and disgrace of her life are pinned on Hua'er, don't be afraid that she can't hold her, don't worry."
When the Qin family heard this, they were relieved.
So, that night.
Song Anning went to the Yamen of the Embroidery Division and told them that he did not want to investigate the corpse as a fake.
Pei Qingyan sat behind the dark red lacquered wooden table, looking at her with heavy eyes.
"Are you really not going to pursue it?"
Song Anning said: "Yes, I won't pursue it." ”
"Oh, what are you...... Relented? ”
I don't know if it's her delusion, but she actually heard a hint of ridicule from the mouth of the adult.
She couldn't help but raise her eyes and glanced at the other party quietly.
But seeing that the mask on his face was as black as ink, and his eyes were dark and thick, making it difficult for people to see clearly, he quickly lowered his head and said: "The women are not soft-hearted, but they know that it is not beneficial to themselves to do this. It's better to take a step back and take what you need. ”
Pei Qingyan stagnated.
said angrily: "I thought you cared more about innocence." ”
Song Anning pursed his lips, "What is innocence, it's just an invisible and colorless name living on the lips of the world, besides, as long as it is confirmed that Jiang Hua is not dead, my Kefu's name will be automatically cleared, so why prove my innocence again?" Thank you for your help from yesterday, and the people can go by themselves on the road ahead. ”
