Chapter 142: For You, I'm Willing to Do Anything
Lin Mo Niang's expression froze, and a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes.
"That blood ginseng does exist..." She bit her lower lip, her voice as light as a mosquito's, "but that's the last of my life. It's not that I don't want to give it to you, but if I get sick in the future..."
Seeing an opportunity, Liang Shanyu immediately held her hand, her eyes full of tenderness.
"Don't worry, mother. As long as your daughter safely gives birth to the eldest grandson of the Marquis' Mansion, there's no need to worry about not having a hundred-year-old blood ginseng for you."
"Once you give birth to a child, if he inherits the title in the future, you will be the Marquis's grandmother!"
Lin Mo Niang's heart moved. What she hated most was that she was just a concubine.
Liang Shanyu was raised by her, so she naturally knew that she had fallen in love, and every word she said touched Lin Mo'niang's heart.
After much persuasion, Lin Mo Niang was finally coaxed into taking out the brocade box hidden in the secret compartment under the bed.
Liang Shanyu's mouth was dry from talking, and her eyes were shining when she saw the brocade box.
Just as she was about to reach out to take it, Lin Mo Niang tightened her fingers slightly, her eyes full of reluctance.
But seeing his daughter's haggard appearance, he let go.
"Take it. As long as you are well, mother will be satisfied..."
Liang Shanyu took it, a smile of triumph flashed in her eyes, but soon it was replaced by an expression of gratitude.
"Mom is still good to me!"
She clenched the brocade box in her hand, a hint of viciousness suddenly flashed in her eyes, and she whispered.
"Mother, I am now restricted in every way by the Huo family, all thanks to Liang Weiyuan! Now that the Huo family's second branch is in decline, she is behind the scenes fanning the flames and wishing to kill me!"
When Lin Mo Niang heard this, tears immediately welled up in her eyes and her voice trembled.
"It's all because of my uselessness. If I had been more determined back then, I wouldn't have let you suffer like this..."
She clenched her handkerchief tightly, but sighed in a pretentious manner.
"But Wei Yuan is the daughter of the general's family, and her mother is a wealthy businesswoman. It's only natural for her to be a little arrogant..."
Liang Shanyu's eyes flickered slightly, and she remembered the fate of Li Qingxue in her previous life.
At that time, Huo Siyuan inherited the title and joined hands with his father to frame the Li family. Liang Weiyuan's maternal grandfather and his entire family were about to be executed.
That bitch Li Qingxue even tried to use up all her family fortune to seek peace, but in the end, it was still irreparable and she died of depression.
If she could follow the method from her previous life, she could not only defeat the backers behind Liang Weiyuan, but also seize all of Li's family property. Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?
Then, let’s see who dares to look down on her!
With a gleam in her eyes, Liang Shanyu moved closer to Lin Mo Niang.
"Aunt, if Li Qingxue falls, Liang Weiyuan will be left without a backer and will be devastated! By then, how will she even have the energy to deal with me?"
Lin Mo Niang narrowed her eyes and lowered her voice.
"you mean……"
Liang Shanyu curled up the corners of her lips in a cold smile, her voice almost inaudible.
"Mother, do you remember that a few years ago, the Li family's business was investigated for 'smuggling prohibited items'? Although it was eventually dropped, if we can find some 'evidence' to prove the Li family's guilt of colluding with foreign enemies and smuggling prohibited items..."
Lin Mo'niang's heart skipped a beat and her eyes gradually brightened.
"Do you want to make it impossible for the Li family to recover?"
Liang Shanyu nodded, her tone cold.
"As long as the Li family falls, how can Li Qingxue, the daughter of a merchant, be qualified to be the mistress of the general's mansion? By then, Liang Weiyuan will be at our mercy without the support of her family."
Greed flashed in Lin Mo Niang's eyes, but then she hesitated.
"But Li Qingxue acts cautiously, and her compound is heavily guarded. How can we find evidence?"
Liang Shanyu smiled contemptuously.
"Mother, no matter how cautious Li Qingxue is, there will always be times when she overlooks something. You are the concubine of the mansion, and your daily entry and exit of the main courtyard is legitimate. As long as you pay a little attention, you will always find some clues."
Lin Mo Niang bit her lips, tears flashed in her eyes, and her heart was full of excitement.
But she held Liang Shanyu's hand tightly and said, "Okay! For you, mother is willing to do anything!"
