Cui Zhen said, "With your status, you can't touch the Crown Prince of the Pei family. However, it is very simple to make the Pei family lose face and make the Crown Prince lose his foothold in the entire family."
"You are sick!" Shu Qin said without thinking and wanted to leave the backyard.
These words are really touching.
But Shu Qin is not a fool.
Cui Zhen clearly wanted to use her as a tool.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Is she that stupid?!
How could the dignified mistress of the Pei family be led around by the nose by a housekeeper?!
Ha~!
Shu Qin naturally disdains it.
However, when Shu Qin went to the hall and found her husband Pei Jiangling, Yu Wenshu was chatting enthusiastically with the mistress of the Liu family, a branch of the Pei family.
From a distance, Shu Qin could already hear Yu Wenshu's voice.
"Then let's make a deal. Next month, when the Li family's daughter returns from studying abroad, you must treat us to a meal."
"I have no problem, but Young Master Pei..." The mistress of the Liu family glanced at Pei Jiangling, who was standing next to her with a cold face, and was more or less a little worried.
"Of course he has no problem."
"Mother!" Pei Jiangling was obviously unhappy.
"The eldest daughter of the Li family is the most famous lady in Jiangzhou City and a famous beauty." Yu Wenshu said, "Not only is the environment there good, the climate is even better, and it's very nourishing. Women there are more likely to give birth to sons."
"If you want to go, go by yourself. I'm busy." Pei Jiangling said unhappily and turned to leave.
Yu Wenshu immediately grabbed him and said, "You must go."
"Next month, my father and I have a project that we will personally travel abroad to investigate."
"It doesn't matter. The Li family's daughter has returned from studying abroad and originally planned to develop in China. If the time doesn't match, we can make an appointment next time."
"I already have Shuqin."
"Don't talk to that woman who can't even give birth to a son. It's bad luck."
"Mom, she's my wife!"
"So what?! There are three kinds of unfilial behavior, and having no descendants is the worst. Chenyuan has not been doing well in recent years, and its projects have been losing money frequently. It's already enough to make the relatives in law laugh at it. Now even your direct descendants have been outdone by the Pei family. Do you plan to be suppressed by the Pei family for the rest of your life?!" Yu Wenshu was furious, and her voice couldn't help but rise a little. "You have to understand, that woman can no longer have children. Your father and I only have you as a son. If you don't marry someone else to help Chenyuan continue the incense, then Chenyuan will be completely extinct."
"But mom, why can't Shu Qin give birth anymore?! It's because of our Chenyuan that her health collapsed. What's more, for that project last year, the Shu family gave us almost all the family's capital. If we still bully her, how can we be worthy of her deceased father?!" Pei Jiangling was also a little excited, and his eyes were red.
"Can we be blamed for that?! It's all because the Shu family is too poor. The little money they invested wasn't even enough for a second wave of funding. Secondly, the Shu family's patriarch passed away, which has nothing to do with us."
"mom……"
As the two of them were pulling at each other, Pei Jiangling suddenly caught sight of Shu Qin's anxious and flustered figure in the crowd not far away. He immediately tightened his grip on Yu Wenshu's hand...
…
When Xiao Yi carried Ji Niancheng to the lobby of Jinyuan, he first raised his hand to call his confidant and whispered in his ear: "For the time being, withdraw all the spies in Jinyuan..."
After his confidant left, Xiao Yi lowered his eyes and looked at Ji Niancheng who was hugging his neck: "Little Prince, what did Uncle Xiao tell you before the dinner?! Don't stay alone, why did you run to the backyard alone?!"
Although Xiao Yi's words were not harsh, Ji Niancheng understood that Xiao Yi was criticizing him, so he felt a little aggrieved.
However, since he was the one who made the mistake first, Ji Niancheng naturally didn't dare to say anything.
When Ji Yuqi saw Xiao Yi appear in the hall holding Ji Niancheng, she hurried over to him, her voice a little anxious: "Chengcheng, where did you go just now?! Nanny Wang said that you disappeared in the blink of an eye. Mommy looked for you everywhere but couldn't find you."
Ji Yuqi noticed that Xiao Yi's face looked a little bad.
So he casually asked, "Did you cause trouble for Uncle Xiao?!"
Ji Niancheng pursed his lips.
Ji Yuqi was a little hesitant when he leaned over to hug Ji Niancheng.
Xiao Yi is very tall.
Taking Ji Nian from his arms, there would be more or less physical contact.
Ji Yuqi naturally didn't dare to touch Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi was very smart and saw through Ji Yuqi's thoughts at a glance, so when Ji Yuqi frowned and thought about how to take the child, he had already taken the initiative to put Ji Niancheng on the ground.
When Ji Yuqi was walking away with Ji Niancheng, Xiao Yi couldn't control himself and called her: "Miss Ji".
"What's wrong?!" Ji Yuqi turned around and looked at Xiao Yi in confusion.
Xiao Yi considered his words for a moment before speaking: "Since Master Cheng is not in the mansion, you should be more careful. Don't be so careless..."
Xiao Yi didn't dare to think about the scene just now.
If he hadn't gone to the backyard to smoke because of his craving for cigarettes, and Shu Qin had succeeded, the Pei family's sky would have been dyed bright red today...
In fact, Ji Yuqi was a little confused about the subtext of Xiao Yi's words.
I always feel like it's too serious.
When she carried Ji Niancheng back to the main hall to rest, she asked Ji Niancheng about it. When she heard Ji Niancheng talking about him feeding the fish by the landscape pond and Chenyuan's aunt standing silently behind him, Ji Yuqi finally realized something.
In an instant, a layer of cold sweat broke out on my back.
"Mom, I'm a little hungry." Ji Niancheng hugged Ji Yuqi's neck and whispered.
