Chapter 218 Those who are clean will clean themselves up
Such a big thing happened, why didn't anyone tell me! Could it be that I am old and don't take me seriously anymore?
Seeing how furious Madam Jiang was, Nanny Wei couldn't help but feel helpless. She hurriedly stepped forward and came to Madam Jiang, looking at her and soothing her:
"Old Madam, you're worrying too much. Didn't you say that you need to rest during this period? I shouldn't talk about unimportant things in front of you! I also think that the rumors outside are all groundless, so I didn't tell you and let you worry.
As the saying goes, the innocent are self-innocent. If the Second Miss hadn't done those things, these rumors would naturally be self-defeating. How could they be deliberately hiding it from you? Don't you agree? Second Miss!
Nanny Wei changed the subject and passed these questions back to Jiang Wanrong. Seeing a flash of panic in her eyes, Nanny Wei immediately understood.
Perhaps the old lady felt guilty towards Jiang Wanrong, so she could not see the second girl's wolfish ambition and was inevitably a little indulgent towards her.
But she would not be fooled by the second girl's superficial weakness. After all, no matter how much a person changes, the selfishness in his bones will never change. With the second girl's character, she would not do such a selfless thing. There must be something wrong when things are abnormal.
Now recalling the situation on the day when the old lady fell into the water, Wei Mama discovered that there were many loopholes in it. Qiuju was usually timid and afraid of things, so why did she dare to instigate the old lady to go to the pond that day? But now Qiuju died in order to save the old lady from falling into the water, and this clue was broken.
Even if I have doubts now, there is no way to verify them. It seems that I have to strictly discipline the people around the old lady in the future. These revelations must not happen again, otherwise I won’t be so lucky next time!
Sure enough, Nanny Wei's words left Jiang Wanrong speechless. Even though she hated Nanny Wei to death, she did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on her face. Instead, she echoed Nanny Wei's words and said to Old Madam Jiang:
"Madame Wei is right. Grandmother, you are old now. How can we, the younger generation, handle the trivial matters for you? You often say that rumors stop at the wise. Wanrong has always kept it in mind. Don't worry, these little things are not difficult for me!"
Seeing how much Jiang Wanrong cared about her words, Old Lady Jiang couldn't help but laugh heartily. Seeing that Jiang Wanrong was now so weak, and that she had even put her own lifelong affairs behind in order to save her, Old Lady Jiang felt guilty and hurriedly looked at Yuan Peishan and said:
"Although you have already moved out, Wanrong is still a daughter of my Jiang family. Since Wanrong's wedding is imminent and her health is not suitable for moving, let her marry out of the Dingguo Mansion. After all, this mansion is where she grew up, and the courtyard you live in is still there. I will have someone notify Yan Shi and ask her to clean up your courtyard so that you can move in. This way, Wanrong won't have to move around and cause trouble!"
Hearing what Old Lady Jiang said, Yuan Peishan was delighted and couldn't hide the smile on her face. She quickly looked up at Jin Shu Wanrong and saw that she looked embarrassed. Yuan Peishan then looked at Old Lady Jiang and said hesitantly, "Wouldn't this be too much trouble for my sister-in-law? What if she has some complaints in her heart? What should we do?"
Seeing Yuan Peishan's insincere expression, Old Lady Jiang glanced at her sideways before looking at her and scolding her, "Do you think Yan is as fussy as you? Wanrong was raised by her since she was a child. Now that Shuya has just gotten married, there must be some unused items in the mansion. It's a perfect time to give them to Wanrong so they don't gather dust in the storeroom!"
As soon as Mrs. Jiang finished speaking, the smile on Yuan Peishan's face froze, and a trace of indignation flashed in her eyes. It turned out that her daughter Wanrong, the dignified Princess Rui, had to use the leftovers of Jiang Shuya to get married. What did they think of them? If it got out, how could they have the face to stay in Kyoto?
Although Jiang Wanrong's face was not looking good, she could only suppress her resentment when she saw that Old Madam Jiang did not realize that what she said was wrong. After she married into the Rui Wang Mansion and gained a firm foothold, she would definitely not forget the humiliation she suffered today.
Seeing Yuan Peishan's unhappy expression, Jiang Wanrong glanced at her sharply. Seeing this, Yuan Peishan forced a smile on her face, and then looked at Madam Jiang and said with satisfaction:
"What the old lady taught me is that since it is the old lady's arrangement, it is naturally excellent. In this case, I will trouble my sister-in-law to continue to work hard for our Wanrong!"
Seeing that Yuan Peishan and her daughter were now so stable, Old Lady Jiang's opinion of them changed a lot. She then looked at Nanny Wei and instructed, "Go and talk to Yan about this matter in person. Make sure it is handled perfectly!"
Nanny Wei looked at Madam Jiang in surprise. For a moment, she couldn't figure out what she was thinking. You know, taking over this matter would definitely be a big risk. Not to mention that the second young lady's marriage had been prepared for a long time, even if there were only two days left to investigate, there were many things that Madam Guo might not be able to do in time.
At this moment, she was somewhat suspicious that the old lady was deliberately making things difficult for the Duke's wife. Otherwise, why would she give her such a big problem? However, she had also seen the old lady's attitude towards the Duke's wife during this period of time. She did not dislike her at all. Could it be that she was wrong?
Although Wei Mama didn't agree with Madam Jiang's approach, since Madam Jiang had given the order, she still agreed reluctantly. Seeing that Yuan Peishan and her daughter were still eager to make a move, Wei Mama immediately looked at Madam Jiang and said,
"Old Madam, you have been here for quite some time. Now that the Second Miss has just woken up, it is time for her to have a good rest. How about I take you back first, and then go to the Duke's wife? What do you think?"
Right now, the old lady is willing to grant any request from Jiang Wanrong and her daughter. If she doesn't send them back early, who knows what she will say to the old lady. Nanny Wei stands beside old lady Jiang, her eyes full of determination. She must send the old lady back before she leaves.
After hearing what Wei Mama said, Old Lady Jiang also felt a little tired. If it weren't for Yuan Peishan saying so much, it would be time for her to rest. Seeing the reluctance in Jiang Wanrong's eyes, Old Lady Jiang couldn't help but look at her with pity and said:
