The husband and wife were silent for a moment, then Old Madame Luo spoke again, "Jin Qinwang means to send Luo Jingying to Prince Rui's fu? What about Luo Rongping, how will he deal with it? "
When Luo Peishan heard the way his old wife addressed him, he knew that she was thoroughly disgusted with the third branch this time. Luo Peishan also didn't want to redeem anything. That son of his refused to listen to his advice and stubbornly clung to his own course. He even thought that he, as a father, didn't like him and wanted to cut off his future. "Rui Qinwang wants to detain the third branch as a chess piece to control our Luo family. He has already coaxed Luo Jingying to be dead set on him, and has completely coerced and enticed lao san to lean towards him. Since that's the case, what harm is there in fulfilling their wishes? Only, I don't know what kind of expression they will have when it's all for naught in the end."
Old Madame Luo coldly snorted, "Can't you blame the heavens and accuse others and push all the blame onto others? Could it be that you still expect them to reflect on themselves?" What kind of thoughts these people had, she was all too clear.
Luo Peishan admitted that his old wife was right.
"How is Laoye doing in the Ministry of Personnel?"
"The main officials of the Ministry of Personnel all have something on them that Jin Qinwang has in his hands. Today, he gave it all to me."
Old Madame Luo moved. These things that could be used against them wouldn't be a small matter. Once it was revealed, there was a high chance that they wouldn't be able to keep their position and might even lose their heads. However, "The Ministry of Personnel should also have Jin Qinwang's people. Are you not planning on letting them know your position? Letting you threaten and torment them? However, this is also good. For you, it's the safest. "
"Jin Qinwang is very meticulous in his work. From what I see, even those who work for him don't know each other's details, not to mention the small officials below. I'm afraid that they don't even know who they are working for."
Old Madam Luo sighed, "Everyone in the world knows that Jin Qinwang has nothing but a body of skin, and his reputation is so bad that no one can compare to it. Who would have thought that he hid it so deeply, grasped so many things, and completely contrary to the rumors, kept himself clean and honest. Towards Wan Wan, he is even more … A man like him, even if he gets what he wants, his thoughts will fade, but towards Wan Wan, he shouldn't be too bad. Putting aside his identity, there's no one more suitable for Wanwan than him in other aspects. "
"But Zhengmin and Sun Yilin …"
Madame Luo immediately waved her hand to interrupt him. "Two grown men, it's just breaking off an engagement. It's not like you'll lose a piece of flesh."
Luo Peishan looked at his old wife speechlessly. "The point is that both of them are deeply in love with the third girl."
"So what? Would Wan Wan marry anyone who liked Wan Wan? If it's possible, I don't mind Wan Wan marrying them all back. "Madame Luo threatened valiantly.
Luo Peishan looked at Madame Luo in disbelief. "You, you …"
"What?"
Luo Peishan felt that at this moment, she didn't give in at all. "Forget it, I won't argue with you about this. I just feel that Jin Qinwang is scheming against them and is completely kept in the dark. It's a little pitiful. "
"Pitiful? For someone like Jin Qinwang, for other men to peep at the person in his heart, heh, he didn't give Chen Zhengmin a princess and cut off his future. It's already very benevolent. "
Luo Peishan looked at her as if he was looking at a monster. Then he thought carefully. His mother, what his old wife said seemed to be right. Even if it was an ordinary man, if someone else peeped at his wife, they would probably fly into a rage and hate that they couldn't get rid of them quickly. And for someone like Jin Qinwang, it looked like he was outstanding in all kinds of ways and he had the ability to completely eradicate those people one by one. Looking at it this way, he was indeed very benevolent.
With such a comparison, Luo Peishan didn't feel that they were pitiful. He only felt that they were really lucky. Not to mention that they still had their lives, their future was also … not damaged? This point didn't seem to be certain. When Jin Qinwang took power in the future, he didn't know if he would still feel that they were an eyesore and make things difficult for them.
Luo Peishan smiled embarrassedly. "Furen, Zhengmin is your grandnephew."
"Wan Wan is my grandson. He has taken care of me in every possible way for many years."
Luo Peishan, Luo Daren chose to keep quiet. He already understood that as long as it was related to the Third Girl, in front of his old wife, he had to stand aside. What did other people count for? Occasionally, when he thought of this, he felt bitter.
Knowing the details from Luo Peishan, Madame Luo's heart inexplicably settled down completely. Thinking carefully, from the beginning, she was uneasy about Jingwan's marriage. She always felt that it wouldn't go smoothly. It turned out that there really was a reason for it. Now, she didn't need to think about anything. Let nature take its course.
The husband and wife talked about other things, but it was warm and tranquil.
However, on the side of the Third Branch, it wasn't so tranquil. Without saying anything, Liu-shi directly used the feather duster to give Luo Jingying a good beating. At first, Luo Jingying still wanted to run. "Kneel properly for me. If you dare to hide or run, I will immediately go find Old Furen and have you, this evil creature, eliminated from the clan." This threat was very effective. Luo Jingying was beaten until she screamed, but she didn't dare to get up.
She kept begging for mercy, but unfortunately, it didn't have any effect. She also didn't beg for mercy. She shrunk her body and gritted her teeth to endure.
Luo Rongping just watched indifferently from the side, not saying a word.
Until Liu-shi was tired of beating, she casually threw the feather duster away. "Now, tell me everything clearly."
Now, Luo Jingying didn't dare to hide anything.
Luo Rongping originally thought that she had hooked up with someone else. He didn't expect that it was Prince Rui. His originally gloomy face suddenly brightened up. "Since father only grounded her, then it must be Prince Rui who sent him a message. Now, the matter has been settled. You should teach her how to serve Prince Rui in the future. Also, her injuries should be healed quickly. If Prince Rui comes to pick her up one day, what will happen to her body with injuries? In any case, she's a girl. You were too cruel just now. "Then, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Liu-shi didn't have any expression. She was probably numb to it. "I saw it. This is your father. Selfish, hypocritical, and heartless. In his eyes, you are just a chess piece to seek glory, splendor, and wealth. When you're useful, you can barely be regarded as a treasure. When you're useless, you're even worse than a blade of grass. "
Luo Jingying endured the pain and lowered her head in silence.
"If you like Prince Rui, mother won't object. Even if you get close to him, it's fine. But you're so stupid to give your body to him at this time. Originally, you had some value, but now, heh …" Liu-shi sneered. "Don't you know how many people want to cling onto our family after your grandfather was promoted to the Minister of Personnel, including those princes? You girls of the right age, the marriage of a girl is the best bargaining chip. If you keep him hanging, he may welcome you as a concubine in the end. But now, you can only wait to be carried in a small broken sedan chair. Moreover, if Princess Rui doesn't let go of the matter of you losing your virginity before marriage, then you can forget about turning over a new leaf in this lifetime. "
"Mother, that won't happen. Prince Rui likes me. How can he let his princess control me?" Luo Jingying said while shaking her head. She looked really pitiful.
"Likes you? Even if he likes you, it's because of your grandfather. Even if he really likes you, if a man can like one woman, he can like two, three, four, and countless women. It's common for him to like the new and dislike the old. Who do you think you are? Why can you be the one and only one? Why can't they get along well because of you? If he knows that you have no place in your grandfather's heart, I'm afraid you'll give your body to him in vain. "
"No, no, he won't do that to me …"
Luo Jingying cried miserably, but Liu-shi looked at her as if she was watching a clown. "Do you know what a man will do if he really likes a woman? One thing is certain, at least he won't let that woman's reputation be damaged. Unless it's a prostitute, he won't be impatient to take her body. You're a good girl, and a girl from an official's family. He's doing this to tie you down completely. He has no other choice but to prevent your grandfather from not agreeing to marry you to him. If your grandfather is cruel, you'll either be a Buddhist monk for the rest of your life, or you'll have to marry into a poor family and work hard for the rest of your life. "
"It can't be, it can't be …" Luo Jingying repeated these three words over and over again, but she looked like she was about to collapse. It was obvious that she actually believed the Liu matriarch's words. No matter how hard she tried to talk, she couldn't hide the fear in her heart.
"Whether it will happen or not, just wait and see." Luo Jingying suffered again and again, but she never learned her lesson. She didn't know how to be smart, but she always thought she was smart. She never knew how to talk to her mother first. Now, Liu-shi's heart was cold. She was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore. She had completely lost hope in her.
Liu-shi rearranged some people to her courtyard. She didn't give any less than what she deserved. She only had one rule. If she stepped out of the courtyard without permission, whoever let her out would be beaten to death immediately.
The next day, when she paid her respects, she didn't see Luo Jingying again. Liu-shi's face was wooden. She said that she was sick.
Jingwan felt that Luo Jingying probably did something wrong again. However, Jingwan always felt that the way her grandmother looked at her was a bit strange. It made her feel strange, "Grandmother, what's the matter?"
Old Madame Luo chuckled twice, "Grandmother thinks ah, our Wan Wan is really a good girl." Even someone like Jin Qinwang could think about her, it showed that this girl was really outstanding.
Jingwan became more and more inexplicable, but Old Madame Luo refused to say anything more.
Wang-shi, who usually came first, was the last to arrive today. However, little Wang-shi also came.
This was also the first time Jingwan saw her after the last "makeup" incident. Her complexion looked good, her spirit was still good, and there was a faint smile in her eyes. It seemed that she was really getting better.
Old Madame Luo looked at her carefully, "So, it's really the makeup powder's doing?"
"I think it's not far from the truth. It's only been ten days, but she's getting better. She herself also feels a lot more relaxed." Wang-shi looked at Jingwan gratefully, "It's all thanks to third girl. Otherwise, I don't know what the final result would be."
"Eldest aunt's words are too serious. I just touched my lips, I didn't do anything." Jingwan was actually not so optimistic. If it was really lead poisoning, the child would be affected for a long time. She didn't know if it would affect the child's development.
"But you just touched your lips, and it's more effective than anything else." Little Wang-shi touched her belly with a smile, "Good child, you have to be filial to your third aunt in the future."
Jingwan laughed, "Since eldest sister-in-law said so, then I'll wait." She naturally also hoped that the child would be born safely and healthily.
Except for those who didn't have any thoughts, everyone else was talking and laughing with Lele.
Jingwan went back and continued to draw. She was preparing to teach the third "50th volume" of fine brushwork. Luo Jingbo was also busy with this matter when he had time. His speed and drawing skills had improved, so Jingwan could relax a little.
"Miss, Rouge Pavilion sent something."
"Oh?" Jingwan was surprised. She didn't expect Yun Niang to act so quickly. "Quick, let me have a look."
In addition to the loose box, there were three sets of hardcover. Jingwan looked at the hardcover box and was speechless for a long time. How much was Yun Niang going to sell this set? The jade box was carved out of a whole piece of jade. It was full of water, crystal clear, and exquisite in shape. In addition to the beautiful external decoration, the pure box was also inlaid with large and small gems. The wooden box was made of the best red sandalwood, and the external decoration was also exquisitely carved. Just these three boxes could be said to be priceless.
"It's so good. How many sets can be sold?"
Gong Mama laughed, "Miss, don't worry. This was originally prepared for a very small number of people. I think Rouge Pavilion didn't prepare much. After doing business for so many years, it's impossible that they don't even know this."
"En, Mama, you're right. I just need to sit and distribute the money." Jingwan opened a loose box of lipstick, unscrewed the lid, smeared a little on the back of her hand, and smelled it, "It's not bad. — — There are a lot of loose ones. Send some to each branch. The sandalwood set is for grandmother, the jade set is for my mother, and the gold set is for third sister-in-law. In the family, except for Luo Jingying, everyone has a quota. For those who are married, regardless of whether they are aunts or sisters, they will be counted according to the number of people. I will give Cousin Qiaoqiao a separate set. "
Of course, even in the Luo Family, there was no concubine's share.
Gong Mama nodded. This was the best. The situation of the married families was different. There would be gossip whether they gave more or less. Therefore, it was up to them how to deal with it. As for the three exquisite sets, Miss did not keep any of them. Gong Mama did not have any objection.
Jingwan's gifts were generally good. Today's gifts were naturally very popular.
Especially when they saw the three exquisite sets, Third Miss was really generous. She gave such things away without batting an eyelid. It would be a lie to say that they were not envious. However, it was a pity that these things belonged to Jingwan. It was her freedom to give them to whoever she wanted. No one could say anything.
Luo Jingying and Little Wang did not. However, no one said anything about Jingwan's opinion of Little Wang. Everyone saw that Little Wang was getting better. It was all thanks to Third Miss. Those who secretly gossiped secretly slapped their own faces. However, the ridicule towards Luo Jingying went up a notch. Luo Jingying had brought it all on herself.
The next day, Luo Jingqiang came back. She looked good. It was obvious that this "second reincarnation" might be a rebirth for her.
Madam Liu said a few words to her and did not say anything more.
"Go and see your concubine. Then come back and talk to your sisters." Madam Luo said.
"Yes." Luo Jingqiang was happy.
Madam Luo's move was undoubtedly a slap to Madam Liu's face. Concubine Hua was still in confinement. When Luo Jingqiang got married, she was not able to come out. Madam Luo was undoubtedly doing her a favor.
However, Madam Liu's expression only changed. She did not say anything. Her position was getting more and more precarious. If she dared to challenge Madam Luo's authority, she would be courting death.
The new son-in-law of the Luo family was dragged away by several brothers-in-law to have a "talk".
But before Luo Jingqiang came back from her concubine's place, a servant hurriedly came to report. "Madam Luo, there is a girl outside. She is directly kneeling in front of the gate. We can't invite her in, but she refuses to leave. She said that she wants Third Miss to give her a way out."
Madam Luo's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously said two words — Here it comes.
Everyone looked at each other and then looked at Jingwan. What was going on?
Jingwan was also confused. When did she get involved with people's lives?
"Let's go and see." Madam Luo stood up.
Jingwan also stood up. "Grandmother, I'll go too."
Madam Luo frowned slightly. She had already guessed what it was about. Naturally, she did not want Jingwan to get involved. But she also knew Jingwan's temper. How could she persuade her? She could not tell the truth. "Then let's go."
It must be said that the place where the Luo Residence was located was not a restricted area of the Prince's Residence. Although there were no peddlers hawking their wares, there were still quite a number of people walking around. Naturally, there would be quite a number of people gathering around the kneeling woman. There was a lot of discussion and pointing fingers. Luo Peishan had only been promoted to Minister of Personnel for a few days, and such a thing happened. Could it be that one of the Luo family's men got into trouble? If it was Luo Shangshu, then there would be a lot of fun to watch.
Besides Jingwan, there were other people who followed Madam Luo out. Madam Luo did not stop them.
It seemed that as soon as the girl saw Jingwan, she directly knelt in front of Jingwan and began to kowtow.
Jingwan's eyebrows twitched. Was she trying to shorten her lifespan? Old Madam Luo was even more furious. "Pull her up."
Two servant girls hurried forward, each holding one arm, trying to pull her up by force.
"I'm pregnant, don't touch me." The girl reached out and pushed them away.
This time, the servant girls did not dare to touch her, and the scene suddenly froze.
The girl knelt on the ground, but did not continue to kowtow. She looked straight at Jingwan. "Third Miss Luo, I promise not to fight or snatch. In the future, I will serve you well. I only ask that you be merciful, take pity on the child in my belly, and let it live. I beg you … "
"Enough." Jingwan's face was cold. "Sun Yilin's?"
The others were still confused, but when they heard Jingwan's words, they immediately understood everything. They looked at each other.
The girl lowered her eyes. "Yes."
