Chapter 668: Preparation for Demobilization
Qian Yulin watched as Zhang Juexia's carriage disappeared, then he turned back into the mansion with a gloomy face.
As soon as she entered her yard, she said angrily, "Go, send someone to Dahe Village now to invite Zhang Qiuye's mother.
Remember, only call her mother, not her father."
Nanny Liu was still a little confused.
Qian Yulin glared at her and said, "Madam, are you confused too? Zhang Qiuye's father isn't his biological father, so what's the point of calling him?"
Only then did Aunt Liu understand, "I will send someone to do it right away."
Nanny Liu was very fast and came back in the time it takes to stick up an incense stick.
Seeing that Qian Yulin looked tired, she advised her to go and rest.
Qian Yulin leaned back and said, "I'm so angry that I can't sleep even if I lie down. Mammy, I think I've been kind to Zhang Qiuye, but you didn't see the way she looked at Juexia. I could tell she had no good intentions."
How could she be so cruel? "
Aunt Liu sighed, "Madam, why bother getting angry with such a person?
She didn't even look at the child she gave birth to. This kind of woman, ah, this is the first time I have seen such a woman in my life."
"I don't know what the master saw in her in the first place? Well, her youth and her pink and tender face are more important than anything else."
Nanny Liu looked at Qian Yulin sympathetically. Although her young lady was born out of wedlock, she had been strong-willed since she was a child.
Before she got married, she lived a very happy life in her parents' home because her brother was very capable.
Just because she had seen too many dirty things in the backyards of wealthy families, she wanted to find a simple family.
When the Li family came to propose marriage, they made it very clear that they would divide the family property after the marriage, and the children's property would be clearly divided.
Her young lady was attracted by this point, as well as Li Jinyi's handsome face.
Alas, who knew that the days that followed would be so difficult. Although the young lady became the head of the family as soon as she entered the house, Li Jinyi relied on his handsome face to flirt with other women everywhere.
Even though the lady fed him until he was fat, he couldn't change this bad habit.
But the good thing now is that her young lady has finally managed to make it through the day.
Qian Yulin sat up straight and asked, "Mammy, how is the matter I asked you to inquire about?"
Nanny Liu also perked up. At Qian Yulin's signal, she sat on the chair next to her. The two of them faced each other and talked in a low voice.
"So, after hearing this news, most of them want to leave the house?"
"This is the news I asked them to find out."
"That's right. No one can support a young woman living as a widow in a mansion."
Aunt Liu curled her lips and said, "It's because Madam is kindhearted that she gave me so much severance pay.
This money is enough for them to buy a house and a shop.
Those who don't want to live in the town will return to the village, build a house, buy some land, and become a small landlord.
Anyone would have to make some calculations in their mind."
"That's good, as long as they are willing to go out, I am willing to take the money.
After all, it was the master who made the mistake first, delaying them for so many years, so they can’t be blamed.”
"You are kind-hearted, but why don't you consider that when these people first came into our mansion, they were drawn to our wealth.
Think about it, at the beginning, they were all like the Eighth Concubine, who only wanted to give birth to a son for the master.
But my stomach just won't hold up, there's nothing I can do."
After hearing what Aunt Liu said, Qian Yulin immediately stood up and stared at Aunt Liu and asked, "Aunt Liu, do you believe in fate?
I don't think I am a petty person. No matter how many concubines my master marries, I hope they can be pregnant and have a boy.
Although I cannot take care of them wholeheartedly, I have never had the intention of harming them.
But how come? "
Nanny Liu gave Qian Yulin some words of advice, which were nothing more than comforting words. Moreover, the two of them had already agreed to let Yingrou find a husband in the future, so Qian Yulin soon stopped worrying about it.
Qian Yulin looked outside and asked, "I wonder if Eighth Concubine's mother received the call?"
"It should be soon."
"Oh, by the way, the Eighth Concubine heard the rumors in the mansion. Has there been any movement from her side?"
"It's a big deal! I heard from Chuncao that she is also thinking about leaving the house.
But I was also a little unwilling to give up, as I had already consulted several doctors.
But the doctors all said the same thing: you're injured and need to take care of yourself for a few years, otherwise you might not be able to have children in the future."
"In fact, I have already discussed with the master that as long as the concubines who have given birth to your children do not want to leave the house, we will treat them well.
Even if Yingrou takes charge of the family in the future, they will still be the elders.
I will also treat the children equally in their upbringing and dowry.
After all, they are all daughters of the Li family. I understand the principle that we all prosper together and suffer together."
"The other two concubines who gave birth to the young ladies, except the Eighth Concubine, had no intention of leaving the house.
But, after all, you are still young!"
"It's more than just youth. I think she's unwilling to give up. She sees Jue Xia's life getting better day by day, and she just can't accept it."
Aunt Liu rolled her eyes in disdain. "Her? And she's comparing herself to Madam Ye. To put it bluntly, she's not even worthy of carrying Madam Ye's shoes.
When they first spread the rumor that Madam Ye and she were sisters, I would never have believed it, even if I were beaten to death."
"So Mammy is trustworthy now?"
"I believe it, but after all, we are not related by blood at all, so how can we be considered sisters?
Alas, perhaps she and her mother were blaming themselves, wondering why they hadn't married Mr. Ye in the first place!
After saying this, Aunt Liu's eyes sparkled. "Madam, people are saying that it was the Eighth Concubine who stole Madam Ye's marriage. Is this true?"
Qian Yulin nodded, "It's true! Before this, didn't I investigate Jue Xia's background?
Speaking of which, this matter is also very mysterious, but everyone has their own destiny. Jue Xia’s personality means that no matter who she marries, she will live a good life.
"I don't think so. If she really married into the Liu family, she would have to endure the Liu family's behavior."
"This child is also blessed!"
Qian Yulin frowned, "Mammy, you still have to let them pay attention to the following matters. Since the master has made up his mind to dismiss them, I will take care of this matter after Yingyue gets married, so as to avoid any more troubles."
"I know what's going on, Madam, don't worry!"
"I have to consider Yingrou as well. Although this child has agreed to be a son-in-law, I still feel sorry for her.
If her father's harem becomes chaotic again, wouldn't it make the child even more upset in the future?
I want to relieve all these worries for her before she gets married.
Alas, I wonder what kind of son-in-law she will marry in the future?
Mammy, to be honest, I have no idea at all!"
