Jiang Rongqing shook his head. "Mrs. Feng said earlier that Zhen'er and Mingzhi were incompatible. We've already invited a master from Daci Temple to perform a ritual at home, but things keep happening. I'm worried. Thankfully, mother is back now, and you're here to help me make a decision."
Old Madam Jiang was not a fool. When she heard this, she understood clearly that her son wanted her to help deal with the mess in the Jinyi Marquis' Mansion, otherwise he would not have been so anxious to let her return to Beijing.
The thought made her feel sad, and she could only sigh that she did not have a biological child. Other people's sons were always distant from her. When it came to disciplining them, she was always hesitant. If she was too harsh, she was afraid that the other person would feel resentful, and if she was too lenient, she was afraid that it would be ineffective. She was in the most difficult situation. She never expected that the child she had taught so carefully would be so weak that he could not lift or carry anything. Until now, when he encountered problems, he still only knew to ask others for help.
If no one comes forward to solve this mess, I'm afraid the Jinyi Marquis Mansion will continue to be in chaos.
She just couldn't bear to do it. Thinking about her humble background, the old marquis had overcome all difficulties and made her the marquis's wife. Her greatest attachment to the Jinyi Marquis's Mansion came from the respect and trust the old marquis had shown her.
She carefully inquired about all the big and small things that had happened in the family recently, not leaving out any details.
Jiang Mingzhi listened and re-examined the recent events in his mind.
The incident of the frightened horse this morning has not been figured out yet, but she thinks it is not a difficult problem. Since Chu Muchi is already involved, he must not be completely ignorant of this matter. She plans to go to Prince Yong's Mansion tomorrow and ask Chu Muchi if he knows the inside story. In this way, Lu Yun and others will not have to go through the trouble of investigating.
The housekeeper of the Jinyi Marquis's Mansion handed the pair of cards to Old Madam Jiang. However, Jiang Yuzhen felt that her father was being stupid. If this old woman was really useful, how could she be forced to Dingzhou by her mother for so many years? This old woman was clearly pretending and just wanted to get the pair of cards from the family!
But she didn't think about it. If there was no Old Madam Jiang, there would be no Marquis Jinyi today, not to mention her, the legitimate daughter of the marquis. The Jiang family is not without branches. The old lady can adopt a younger member of the Jiang family and raise him by her side since childhood. This is much better than helping Jiang Rongqing become the Marquis Jinyi.
Seeing that her eldest granddaughter looked thoughtful, Mrs. Jiang kept her to talk, which made Jiang Yuzhen feel sour again.
Jiang Mingzhi vaguely understood what the old lady meant, and responded obediently, waiting quietly for her to speak.
"My dear, you've been a clever child since you were little. When you were two years old, the maids were careless and left the hot water bottle on your crib without tightening the mouth. You're usually very active, but that day you didn't move at all. It took me until I noticed it, so nothing happened. Honestly, you're the only one in this mansion that Grandmother trusts."
Jiang Mingzhi was deeply moved by these heartfelt words. She nodded slightly, glanced at the empty hall, and said, "Grandma, since you've said that, I'll tell you the truth. I don't trust anyone in this family. Even Yushu, I don't dare trust her completely. I've been ill all these years, and my father particularly dislikes me for bringing shame upon him. But you're different. Even my mother trusts you, so I trust you too."
As Mrs. Jiang listened, her eyes became slightly moist, and she also thought of Wang's kindness.
