Chapter 188
Occupy the Jiang Family
Jiang Zhaoying didn't say anything, but looked at Master Rong with a faint look, as if with endless oppression. Master Rong was frightened and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. After a while, Jiang Zhaoying spoke faintly.
"Uncle, you should know that there are many things that cannot be hidden from me. I can see them without you telling me."
Master Rong's face suddenly became ugly and embarrassed, as if he had swallowed a dead fly. When he looked at Jiang Zhaoying, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
Over the years, they didn't think Jiang Zhenggan had any special abilities. At most, he was proficient in astronomy and geography, and could predict good and bad luck. However, they didn't expect that Jiang Zhaoying had been promoted step by step recently and had become so powerful.
I made up my mind.
Master Rong said with red eyes.
"Yes, it was our idea, but mother really volunteered."
voluntary?
How could a selfish person like Madam Rong be willing to give up such a life of wealth and glory, and be willing to die for her children?
but.
Jiang Zhaoying didn't want to argue with them about this matter anymore. Anyway, she didn't intend to care about it or interfere, so she didn't say anything else.
When Master Rong saw that she didn't say anything else, he thought she believed his lies. He breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Zhaoying, you have to help us with this matter. If Madam Yue's carriage hadn't come closer, she wouldn't have fallen. To put it bluntly, she fell on her own, but Prime Minister Yue didn't know the truth and blamed us."
"Prime Minister Yue doesn't know the truth?"
Jiang Zhaoying really felt that Master Rong was too naive.
"If I'm not mistaken, Prime Minister Yue's carriage should be behind the old lady, but because it was blocked and there was not enough time, he could only watch his mother fall off the cliff with his own eyes."
It was precisely because of this that Prime Minister Yue was filled with overwhelming hatred. He hated himself for not saving his mother in time, and he hated the people who did it behind the scenes even more. Both of these hatreds were concentrated in the Rong Mansion. How could the Rong Mansion bear it?
Master Rong was completely silent now. His face gradually turned pale and he almost begged Jiang Zhaoying.
"What should we do? We have come this far, he can't just let us go, right?"
"Uncle, what were you doing when the accident happened?"
This question left Master Rong speechless. Jiang Zhaoying really didn't want to discuss this matter with him anymore, so she bowed and turned away.
After taking a few steps, Jiang Zhaoying stopped again, turned around and said coldly.
"I hope the tricks that my aunts used outside won't happen again. The people in Yue Xiangfu are not stupid. They have known your character, behavior, and style very well over the years."
Master Rong almost staggered back several steps, his legs feeling weak. It turned out that they had been living under the eyes of others for so many years, and they still thought that everything was fine.
Seeing Jiang Zhaoying leave with a cold face, Madam Rong, who had been hiding and eavesdropping, ran out to support her husband, gritted her teeth and said softly with some anger.
"She just doesn't want to help us. She doesn't even look at her family. She can get away with staying out of this matter. Master, it seems we have to let Yue Xiang know that it was her mother who caused the incident. Anyway, she has been dead for so many years, there is no evidence."
"kindness."
Master Rong nodded with a cold face, and at this time the housekeeper came over with a list.
"Master, Madam, this is the gift that the eldest and second young masters brought back from the Jiang Mansion last night. Please take a look."
The list was full, and many of them were quite valuable, with tens of thousands of taels of silver. The housekeeper hadn't seen tens of thousands of taels of cash in the list for many years, so it was already a lot.
"Humph, with so much money, you only give me this little, just to send away a beggar."
Mrs. Rong angrily scolded in a low voice unwillingly.
"Jiang Zhenggan hasn't even come yet, what's the point of having Jiang Zhaoying and a daughter-in-law of questionable character come over?"
As they spoke, their eyes all fell on Yang Pianpian again. It was really interesting. The daughter of General Yang Zhonglang was so graceful and pretty, but how could she die with the same man? I heard that she was even included in the family tree.
"Do you think Jiang Zhenggan has a crush on Miss Yang and is using this excuse to lure her into the mansion and use her for his own benefit?"
Mrs. Rong pulled her daughter forward and whispered that the young lady of the Rong family became jealous when she saw the beauty of Jiang Zhaoying and Yang Pianpian. After hearing what her mother said, she covered her heart and said.
"This is too disgusting. If my uncle likes her, can't I just marry her?"
"What do you know? People like him care the most about their reputation. They are afraid that others will say something bad about them, so they try to hide their identities. Just wait and see. Maybe soon, the Jiang family's grandson will be born. Maybe, it will be his son."
"I didn't expect my uncle to be this kind of person."
The people in Rong Mansion stood together, looking at Jiang Zhaoying and Yang Pianpian with malicious intent, making malicious speculations and speaking one after another.
Shu Yun and Shu Yu, who were standing behind them, were furious when they heard this and rushed forward and said coldly.
"Please be more polite, uncle and madam. God is watching over us. We, the young lady and the young lady, will not tolerate your words. They will all rebound back on you."
"Hey you damn girl, where are you standing?"
Mrs. Rong was frightened by their rushing towards her, and was also made uneasy by what they said. She pointed at them and started scolding them.
"They are just two servants, but they are dressed so gorgeously. Did they steal something? I have to tell Zhaoying that if the family is not well managed, there will be problems sooner or later. She should have handed the Jiang Mansion over to us to manage. Only in this way can there be peace and stability."
"That's right."
Mrs. Rong's eyes lit up when she heard this and she nodded quickly.
These years.
They have always wanted to reach out to the Jiang Mansion, but for some reason, whenever they try to do so, they will be destroyed, or even people will die, so they have only been quiet in the past few years.
But it seems now.
The Jiang family is really rich. Whether it is the clothes and jewelry worn by the maids, or Jiang Zhaoying and Yang Pianpian, although simple and elegant, they are all made of top-quality materials and the embroidery skills are first-class.
Madam Rong, the second madam, and the third madam glanced at each other, and then walked towards Yang Pianpian together.
"Young Madam."
The maid stepped forward to support Yang Pianpian. Yang Pianpian turned her head to look at them, her long fingers clenched slightly in her sleeves. She knew that these people might have bad intentions.
but.
Her father-in-law told her not to be bullied, and Zhaoying also said that it was just a formality and asked her not to worry too much.
So Yang Pianpian, with the help of her maid, bowed to all her aunts. Madam Rong looked at her beautiful face, tall figure, and her sense of etiquette, and she felt extremely jealous for a moment. She thought it would be great if she could marry her youngest son.
But it was taken by that old guy Jiang Zhenggan!
"Let me ask you, who is in charge of the Jiang family right now?"
Yang Pianpian slowly stood up and looked past Mrs. Rong to Jiang Zhaoying who was not far behind them. Jiang Zhaoying nodded at her. Only then did Yang Pianpian's eyes become cold and she answered politely.
"To answer Aunt, of course it's me."
The ladies of the Rong family looked at each other, with an expression that said, "That's what you see." Yang Pianpian remained calm, and the second lady of the Rong family stepped forward and held her hands.
"You are so young and already in charge of the household. There must be a lot you don't know. We will visit you often in the future and teach you some skills to manage the household. If you don't understand something, feel free to come and ask us."
"Why do you only have one maidservant by your side? How about this, I'll pick out a few maidservants and nannies for you, and you can take them back. They will help you, too."
"Zhaoying has a strong temper. We are worried that you will have a hard time in Jiang Mansion, so we want to help you. Pianpian, how much does the store in Jiang Mansion make a month?"
Yang Pianpian held the maid's hand tightly, her eyes becoming colder and colder.
The purpose of these ladies must be too obvious. They are simply trying to fool her by treating her like a fool, sending people in and asking questions.
The only thing he did was to tell her to move the things into their Rong Mansion.
"Thank you for your concern, aunt. Life is okay for now. I will definitely bother you more if I have any questions in the future. Please don't mind, aunt."
"What are you talking about? These are all things we should help with. I originally said that we should send someone to help manage the Jiang family. This would be better."
"That's what my aunt said."
Yang Pianpian let them talk nonsense and agreed to everything they said. Seeing this, several Mrs. Rong hurriedly pushed their personal maids and nannies over. There were six more people around Yang Pianpian. She did not refuse, but agreed with a smile.
"elegant."
Mrs. Rong stepped forward and took Yang Pianpian's hand.
"You are a girl, Zhiyu is dead, why are you still coming to the mansion? Did Jiang Zheng force you to do that? If you have any grievances or need any help, tell us."
Yang Pianpian bowed and said to them.
"Thank you, aunt. I didn't expect you to be so kind. I should have come to visit earlier. It's my fault. Besides, since you have given these people to me, please give me their deeds as well."
The faces of several aunts suddenly froze. They had no intention of giving them the indentures so that they could control them more easily. If they gave them to her, these people might rebel.
"Aunt, don't you want to? Then I dare not bring these people back home, lest they take advantage of me, which would be bad."
"How can that be possible?"
Seeing that Yang Pianpian had given up the idea, Madam Rong hurriedly asked the nanny beside her to get the indentures. The other two Madam Rongs had no choice but to do the same. After a short while, the indentures of the six people were in Yang Pianpian's hands.
"Thank you, aunt."
Yang Pianpian bowed, then handed the indenture to her maid, and spoke to the six of them.
"Follow Xiao Nian and obey her instructions from now on."
"yes."
The maids and old women responded obediently and stood behind Xiao Nian. Xiao Nian put away the indenture. Madam Rong San couldn't help but stepped forward and said.
"Pian Pian, I have two sons and a daughter. Now that they have grown up, they don't know what to do. How about you arrange for them to work as managers in the Jiang Mansion's shop and let them learn how to do business? What do you think?"
"Yes, that's right, ours too."
Mrs. Rong was quick to take off the bracelet on her hand and put it on Yang Pianpian's wrist.
"You can arrange for my family to come in as well, or give them a few shops, so that they can get on the right track. Otherwise, they don't know what to do."
Yang Pianpian looked at the bracelet on her wrist, which was not of very good quality, and a trace of embarrassment appeared in her eyes.
"I have to go back and discuss these matters with my father-in-law. I can't make the decision."
"What are you going to discuss with him? You should make the arrangements first and then tell him. He won't want to offend you, right?"
Yang Pianpian seemed to have thought about it and felt that what they said made sense, so she nodded and said obediently.
"That's fine too. I'll just give you all the shops under my name. I don't know how to run them anyway."
"Really, how many do you have?"
The first, second and third wives of the Rong family listened with their eyes shining. They became excited and surrounded Yang Pianpian. Yang Pianpian raised her hand and started counting, and finally said.
“Probably more than a hundred.”
The number frightened the Rong family so much that they were speechless for a long time. When they came to their senses, they were all filled with joy as if they were crazy.
More than one hundred.
If we give them all away, one family can get dozens of them. Then we can just sit at home and count the money, haha.
Seeing that they were so happy that they almost forgot that there was a dead person not far away, Yang Pianpian really felt that her father-in-law and Zhaoying's decision was correct, and they should not treat these people as relatives at all.
"Give it to us in writing sometime. Write it now."
As she spoke, Madam Rong San hurriedly asked someone to prepare paper and pen, and brought them directly to Yang Pianpian. They pulled Yang Pianpian to the stone table, put some ink on it, and urged her to write quickly. After Yang Pianpian wrote a line, she put down the pen, turned around and left with Xiao Nian with a cold face.
The ladies of the Rong family rushed towards the document, but the moment they picked it up, they were so angry that they almost vomited blood.
Jiang Zhaoying stood aside and saw what was written on the paper.
If a person has no shame, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
Madam Rong was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. She turned to look at the six servants following Xiao Nian. She wanted to come back, but her indentures had been given to others. If she didn't want to come back, she couldn't swallow this.
It took a long time.
Yang Pianpian was simply playing with them and tricking them. They got nothing and instead lost six capable servants.
Jiang Zhaoying blinked her long eyelashes, turned and walked towards Yang Pianpian.
Upon seeing this, the ladies of the Rong family turned around and rushed to her and spoke anxiously.
"You heard it all just now. Yang Pianpian promised to give us her more than 100 shops. This must be kept."
Jiang Zhaoying pointed outside.
"There are two ways. There are more than a hundred shops on this street. You can go and rob them. The other way is to take a shower and go to bed early so you can dream."
"you……"
The ladies of the Rong family were so angry that they beat their chests and stamped their feet. The duck that was already in their hands flew away again. Who would be willing to do this? Mrs. Rong said angrily with gritted teeth.
"No matter what, she must give us what she promised."
There is no hope for the Rong Mansion. Prime Minister Yue will continue to suppress them, and they have also realized that whenever there is a chance to stand out, Prime Minister Yue will take action. So they can only submit to humiliation all their lives. All they can do now is to make more money and live a carefree life.
"Don't worry, the things are there anyway. They won't run away. As long as we go and make trouble every day, they will give us some land to get rid of us. With those things, we can still live well."
"kindness."
After the few people had discussed it, they heard a servant come to report that guests had come to pay their respects.
Then.
I saw that the guests who came first greeted Jiang Zhaoying and then went to worship the spirit.
So everyone knew that these guests probably knew that Jiang Zhaoying had entered the Rong Mansion and saw them being intimate at the door, so they hurried over.
They are all hypocritical and fawning on the powerful. They are really shameless.
