At the end of the day, Jun Rongrong still couldn't let go of the Zhao family's wealth.
Although she knew very well that she couldn't get the lion's share, people were always dissatisfied.
She felt that she had thought it through thoroughly. Her mother was in charge, and someone else was in charge. She would get a different share of the family property in the future.
That was why she had been secretly thinking of ways to let her mother be in charge.
The Old Mistress pondered for a moment, then looked at her daughter with a heavy gaze.
"Rongrong, tell me, did you and Madam Duan get together before?"
Jun Rongrong was stunned, then her expression became slightly unnatural, but she still tried to argue, "She was the one who came first, saying that she wanted to show her filial piety to you through me. Besides, whether that Madam Duan can marry into the family or not, isn't it all up to you? "
The more she said, the more uncertain she became.
As expected, when the Old Mistress heard her answer, she couldn't help but say resentfully, "Didn't I say that you shouldn't get involved in Madam Duan's affairs? Do you really think that woman is so kind? Bah, she's the same as that Fang Rao. If I can't control her now, when she marries into the family, our lives will be worse than before! "
The Old Mistress had been in the inner residence all her life, so she had to admit that her eyes were quite sharp.
Although Fang Rao was smart and capable, she was a person with a sense of propriety.
Although she hated her, she had reaped the benefits she deserved over the years.
But this Madam Duan, ha, she could hide it from others, but she couldn't hide it from her eyes.
As long as Madam Duan married into the family and truly controlled her son, she and her daughter wouldn't be able to reap any benefits.
Jun Rongrong's heart sank, and she panicked a little. She begged her mother to think of a way to protect her wealth.
The Old Mistress didn't say anything, but after thinking for a long time, she carefully looked up and down at her daughter.
"I heard that you've taken a liking to the boy from the Zhao family?"
Jun Rongrong's face blushed when her mother abruptly saw through her little thoughts.
She rubbed the hem of her clothes with her fingers and hung her head, showing the delicateness of a young girl.
The Old Mistress' eyes flashed as she carefully weighed the pros and cons with her daughter.
"The boy from the Zhao family looks good, but he's not very calm. But it was no wonder, he was still young. I remember he should be a few years younger than you, right? "
Jun Rongrong immediately raised her head and added, "We're not that far apart, we're only three years old!"
"Look at you. You're so anxious that you even know his age?" The old lady teased her daughter and nodded.
"Hmm, not bad. It's said that when a woman is three years older, she'll be rich. I know my own girl very well. If you marry him, you can indeed help him to change his mind. "
Listening to his mother's words, did she agree with his thoughts?
Jun Rongrong was overjoyed. Her face, which was not very outstanding, was now blushing. She had a different kind of attitude.
"Actually, I didn't just see him as a young talent. I heard that he will inherit my brother's position in the future. If I marry him, I can remind him from time to time not to forget my elder brother's painstaking efforts to nurture me. "
Madam Dowager was even more satisfied with his words.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip to calm herself down.
"You're a clever one. Indeed, if he marries you, we'll be even closer. Although there's a gap in seniority, you're not a member of the Zhao family after all. Outsiders can't say anything about you. But we'd better plan carefully for this matter. "
Although Jun Rongrong couldn't wait, she also knew that her mother was right.
"As for that Miss Ya, don't go looking for trouble with her. I think it's not bad for her to help us suppress the Duan family. Anyway, she'll have to leave. When the time comes, the Duan family will have to listen to us if they want to make a comeback. "
Madam Dowager felt that she had everything under control and was extremely complacent.
But she didn't know that their movements could not escape Lin Mengya's eyes and ears.
The next day, she received news that Jun Rongrong had made an excuse to invite Zhao Xun to her courtyard for a chat.
"Miss Jun is too bold, isn't she? She invited an outsider into her boudoir in broad daylight. If this happened outside, she would be drowned by spittle. "Cai Ru sighed.
Lin Mengya didn't feel so surprised.
"It would be bad if she invited him at night. It's just a meal with Zhao Xun. Besides, Zhao Zifei will accompany her, so it's not a big deal."
She was calculating the accounts.
During this period of time, the Zhao family had spent a lot of money. In addition to the sudden snow disaster, in addition to the things that the mansion needed, according to the usual practice, the mansion still had to take out a part of the money to help the people in the city.
Fortunately, these things could be found in the previous years. But in order to let Aunt Fang take over quickly, she still sorted out the accounts according to her own habits.
Cai Ru, who was next to her, couldn't help but whisper, "Zhao Zifei is really amazing. It's only been a few days, and he's jumping around again."
Lin Mengya smiled, "Zhao Zifei and his mother are not of the same mind. Moreover, the matter of the poisonous smoke was originally his mother's fault. He was actually not affected much."
However, if Madam Duan knew about it, she didn't know what she would think.
Well, let them fight among themselves, so that others wouldn't be affected.
The wind and snow that had stopped for a day came again in the evening.
The sky was dark and oppressive, making it hard for people to breathe.
Long Tianhao had officially returned to the Zhao mansion when the snow stopped.
The yard was still the original yard, but fortunately, he received a message from his subordinates that Madam would find a way to secretly come to reunite with him in the middle of the night.
From the moment he entered the house, he sat in the wheelchair and kept looking at the door.
But Madam didn't come, but Duan Ruxuan, who pretended to be happy, came.
"What are you doing here?" His voice was slightly cold, and he asked impatiently.
Duan Ruxuan's body trembled, and she suddenly lowered her head and bit her lips.
"You still blame me, don't you? But I really can't make the decision on this matter … "
Long Tianhao rubbed his eyebrows.
He really couldn't figure out which part of him gave her the illusion that he would marry no one but her.
"Stop, I need to say it a few times before you understand. I just saved you because I was passing by. You don't have to blame yourself, and the Zhao family has repaid the kindness of saving you. Now we are even. In the future, you don't have to come to see me. When the snow stops, my family will come to pick me up. "
Duan Ruxuan held back her tears, but sat in front of him.
"In this mansion, only you and I are outsiders. Benefactor, I really don't know what to do. "
She revealed a pair of watery eyes and lightly bit her tender red lips with her snow-white teeth. She looked both lovely and pitiful at the same time.
If it were an ordinary man, he would have already been aroused by her desire to protect her.
However, the man in front of her didn't care about her at all. She was so beautiful that he didn't like her at all. Instead, he was annoyed by her crying.
"I don't know what to do with you. It's getting late. Hurry up and leave. I want to rest."
Long Tianhao drove her away unceremoniously, and he almost beat her up directly.
But unexpectedly, Duan Ruxuan burst into tears.
"Oh, benefactor, only you can help Ru Xuan now. If you don't care about me, I'd rather die. "
Was she threatening him?
Duan Ruxuan, who was deeply immersed in her emotions, didn't know that she had inadvertently violated the taboo of the man.
"What do you mean? Do you think I care about your life or death? "
Although the disguised voice wasn't very pleasant to listen to, this sentence revealed a slight chill.
Duan Ruxuan opened her innocent eyes and looked at the man in disbelief.
"You, you …" She couldn't say that since the man had saved her once, he should save her again.
"Now, leave immediately, don't make me say it again."
The dangerous aura of the man made Duan Ruxuan secretly shocked.
It shouldn't be like this!
Since this man had saved her once, shouldn't he have deep feelings for her, love and hate her?
As long as she was slightly wronged, he should show his ability and share her worries, shouldn't he?
Why did he act as if he really hated her?
Duan Ruxuan, who had always been successful in front of the man, was confused for the first time.
But her intuition still saved her life. Before Long Tianhao really got angry, she hurriedly left the room.
"Troublesome." His thin lips spat out these two words of comment.
"Who asked you to be the hero to save the beauty? How about this, are you satisfied with this' reward '? "
In the night, Lin Mengya came in the snow.
Long Tianhao only felt that his eyes only lit up, and he couldn't wait to push the wheelchair to slide in front of her.
"Why don't you wear more clothes at this time? The road is slippery, walk slowly, lest you fall down. "
The gentle and patient advice was simply a world of difference from just now.
Lin Mengya smiled, took off the hood on the cloak, and revealed a small smiling face.
"I have to go back later, I just came to see you. I have asked someone to add more charcoal stove and quilt for you, remember to sleep at night, don't catch a cold. "
Hearing that she was going to leave, Long Tianhao was very unhappy.
His big warm hands held her frozen fingers, and he was even more displeased with Ru Xuan.
"Is it because of that woman? It doesn't matter, she is probably stupid, there is really nothing between me and her. "
"I know, I was listening just now, but why did Ru Xuan suddenly ask you for help?" She asked curiously.
Because of that meddlesome woman, his wife had to suffer from the cold for nothing!
Long Tianhao rubbed her hands, and didn't want to mention that troublemaker at all.
"Who knows what she is crazy about! I will not see her in the future, every time she comes, nothing good will happen. "
What a narrow-minded man!
Lin Mengya couldn't help smiling, stretched out a hand, and touched between his eyebrows.
