Chapter 97 Letting Go of Grudges



Hua Chan and Yin Qiu followed the carriage specially just to see Jiang Ruohua first. The master and servants huddled together in the carriage. Hua Chan said, "Young lady is not here for a while, I miss you so much!"

"Yes, young lady!"

"I miss you two, too." Jiang Ruohua smiled helplessly, "Is everything okay in the mansion?"

"Everything is fine, it's just..." Hua Chan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Young lady brought in that concubine Li, she is very powerful, it's just..."

"What happened?"

Jiang Ruohua frowned slightly, but it shouldn't be like this. She explained the matter in detail, and Li Ge should know what can and cannot be done. She can endure humiliation for concubine Ying, she shouldn't be the kind of person who loses her temper.

"It was good at first." Yin Qiu said in a low voice, "The slaves followed the young lady's wishes and helped her secretly. She is really powerful. Within a few days of her arrival, she was so fascinated by the third master that even the third wife suffered. She even took advantage of the young master's high fever to bring in the doctor you arranged."

Everything sounds like it is according to Jiang Ruohua's wishes. Is there really no problem?

"In the past few days... I don't know why, but Aunt Li seemed to know what Aunt Yuan had done before." Yin Qiu said with a worried look, "She knew that Aunt Ying's matter had Aunt Yuan's handiwork in it, and then..."

"The slaves are incompetent and can only temporarily persuade her, but I'm afraid some of them can't be persuaded anymore." Hua Chan was very worried.

Jiang Ruohua pursed her lips slightly, nodded and said, "I'll go and tell them in person tonight."

Hatred is inevitable. When Aunt Yuan framed others, she only thought about herself and never thought about what Aunt Ying had done wrong.

But now she hated it so much. If Aunt Yuan hadn't pulled someone out at that time, she would have had a hard time in the future. Sometimes human life is so ridiculous. You try your best and do all the bad things just to survive.

Surviving is really a hell.

That night, she first notified Aunt Yuan to send Third Master Jiang away. Then Jiang Ruohua turned around and went to the Li Ge Courtyard. There were two maids serving in the Li Ge Courtyard, both of whom were Jiang Ruohua's people. When they saw Jiang Ruohua coming, they quietly went out. When Li Ge saw her coming, she put down the things in her hands and knelt down: "Master."

"Sit down." Jiang Ruohua sat on the other side of the table, and went straight to the point, "Did you go to find Aunt Yuan to deal with the trouble?"

Li Ge pursed her lips, which was considered as tacit agreement.

"Let go of your prejudice against Aunt Yuan." Jiang Ruohua just wanted to make it short, after all, she had to be careful going back and forth. "She is also my person, working for me. The baby in her belly is most likely a boy. You are the most favored by the Third Master. Someone is trying to provoke you two to fight each other. Didn't you see it?"

Li Ge said, "But it was indeed her who did it, Master. You know that she framed Yingge, right?"

"Yes." Jiang Ruohua nodded, "But even so, I also ask you to let go of your prejudice against her."

"It's understandable that you and Aunt Ying hate her, but there are some truths that I will only say once." She used her voice to stop Li Ge from saying, "All your sufferings are brought about by your current status. All servants in the world are ordered around by their masters. Only when the master is unkind will the servant be miserable. Desperately relying on such a master will always be like drinking poison to quench thirst. The only best solution is to get away from him. You, Aunt Ying, Aunt Yuan, and even the concubines of the Duke's Mansion, who is the source of your suffering? You have to distinguish clearly. Even if it is for the sake of saving face, you have to let go of the hatred that you can't let go of, and you have to put it behind you even if you have to swallow it hard."

"In other words, you want to be a slave in the Duke's Mansion for your whole life, then I will never help you again."

Li Ge suddenly realized, and then he fell to the ground and said, "Master, I was wrong. I was blinded by the hatred at that moment. I won't do it anymore!"

"It's good that you understand."

Li Ge is not stupid, but no matter what kind of person, sometimes it is impossible to control the hatred in the face of one's own. The Third Madam took advantage of this point, using this real hatred to make the two people fight to the point of mutual destruction. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise after the two people started fighting, it would be difficult for them to wake up and turn back.

After returning, Jiang Ruohua was not idle. She began to look through the accounts sent by Gan Yunsheng and the recent situation that had been sorted out. The business of the horse farm was good. There were many rich children who came to gamble on horses. They also solicited customers from restaurants and teahouses through the horse farm. The revenue was indeed good.

Then there was the point that Jiang Ruohua was most concerned about.

The person in the shell of Prince Ying had changed, but it did not necessarily mean that everything was over. She had to eliminate those who had bad intentions towards the Duke's Mansion, but she was just a woman and could not enter the officialdom like a man. This was the only way to get intelligence.

But the initial effect was not unexpected, the effect was minimal, basically no useful information was found. The former King Ying was always careful in doing things, and it was expected that there would be no useful information. But it couldn't go on like this. She needed manpower and needed to expand her strength. Those who couldn't afford to eat in the no-man's land were Jiang Ruohua's first choice.

No one cared about the people there, including the government, who tried to avoid it as much as possible. There were beggars and refugees there, and even people who didn't even have an identity.

These people, as long as they were given a full meal, could do a lot of things.

Jiang Ruohua asked Gan Yunsheng to arrange this matter. Although the process was a bit bumpy, fortunately, hard work pays off. The results are always accumulated little by little. After some effort, they have seen improvement.

Although it was only preliminary, it was enough to make Jiang Ruohua happy.

With money, some ways are clear in front of her. Recalling the dream, what she needs to do now is to get herself an identity that is not easily threatened, and how to make it difficult for the Third Lady to hold power. After a

small fight to this point, even if the Third Lady trusts her, she has to be careful and cautious about her. It is time to let the Third Lady relax her vigilance and then give her a heavy blow.

As for her identity, the lady of the Duke's Mansion is not enough, but she does not plan to marry with the royal relatives again, so... She still needs an opportunity, an opportunity that can win the praise of the world. As long as she has unshakable merits, she will definitely earn herself a princess.

And opportunities have to wait. Jiang Ruohua is not afraid. For her purpose, she will wait tirelessly. When he

returned to the palace to read with her, it happened to be the first batch of chrysanthemums of the previous year, with all kinds of chrysanthemums blooming in all colors. It also happened that there was a happy event in the previous dynasty, so he decided to hold a banquet in the name of chrysanthemum appreciation.

Jiang Ruohua finished writing the last piece of calligraphy, rubbed his shoulders, listened to the palace servants' report, and looked at Princess Shangyang. There was a net that could be closed.
