Chapter 270: Madam Li, who relies on her age to bully others
Xiuying took out some silver from her purse.
"Leave the second floor to me."
"It's guaranteed." Jiusu patted her chest and pushed the silver back. "This is just a preliminary plan. It's not too late to pay it back after it's completed."
Xiuying entrusted Jinxiu Pavilion to a relative and sold the yard.
"I plan to buy a small courtyard in Shengjing. Looking at someone like Xiong Che, he should be able to pass the exam." She stroked her belly gently, "Even if he doesn't pass, I can still afford to support him."
Jiusu gave a thumbs up: "Rich woman."
Before leaving Lingcheng, she went to Meiling's tomb alone and placed a plum blossom on it. The fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. She hopes that Meiling can still be herself in the next life.
About 40% to 50% of the roads in Lingcheng are passable.
According to the plan, Lingcheng will become a hot and prosperous area next year.
The further north we went, the colder it got and the snow kept falling.
Two months ago, we finally arrived in Shengjing.
Jiusu looked at the system balance with satisfaction. After saving for a month, she finally had a thousand gold leaves. Of course, she also obtained a lot of precious treasures.
For example, a large shop in Shengjing and two automatic shop renovations.
Xiuying dragged Xiong Zhe to the inn.
Jiang Nianyin said she wanted to take a walk, so she got off the carriage and went to the Jiang Mansion with her maid.
Yi Hui said, "Yuyu, I'm sorry for putting you through this during this time. Once I've discussed this with the Marquis, I'll hold a family recognition banquet for you."
Jiusu's eyes twinkled slightly as he said, "No rush. It won't be too late to hold the family recognition banquet after I'm familiar with Shengjing."
A carriage drove into the Marquis's mansion, and the Marquis immediately called all the servants over.
Lord Li said happily, "This Marquis and my wife have found our daughter. She is the eldest daughter of the Marquisate. You must respect and obey her. Do you hear me?"
The housekeeper and the servants of the marquis' mansion knelt on the ground.
"Meet the lady."
All of Li Yulan's things were thrown out, and Yi Hui took his daughter to the yard she had prepared. It was sunny on all sides, and even in the cold winter, there was the fragrance of flowers.
Liu'er stayed behind, looking at the crowd and said, "Young lady is the apple of the eye of the Marquis and his wife. You must all serve her wholeheartedly. You must not tell anyone that Young lady has returned. Steward, please find a house in a good location and with a large area. Remember, don't alarm the old lady."
The housekeeper took note and just as he turned around, he saw the old lady.
Suddenly, the old lady walked in, her face gloomy, accompanied by Li Yulan, who had been missing for a long time. Liu Er hurriedly greeted her, "This servant greets the old lady."
Madam Li sneered.
"How dare I ask the Marquis's personal maid to perform this ceremony? I hope I am not disturbing you."
Liu'er said hurriedly, "Old Madam, you are too kind. I am just a servant. If I do anything wrong, you are welcome to scold me. Madam always says that I should be filial to you. If you knew that I had contradicted you, you would definitely scold me. You are kind and compassionate, so you will not hold it against me, right?"
Look at her kneeling on the ground, admitting her mistake.
Madam Li was very satisfied. She said, "It is said that slaves follow their masters. Seeing her kneeling on the ground is like seeing my weak daughter-in-law kneeling on the ground begging. Forget it, you get up. I want to see Yi Hui. Take me there quickly."
Liu'er pursed her lips and got up from the ground.
The old lady's words were clearly insulting to the lady, but she couldn't refute it: "You are tired from the journey, and the lady is resting. Please wait in the main hall. I will go and call the lady immediately."
Mrs. Li was about to find fault.
Li Yulan held her back and said softly, "Grandma, let mother rest for a while. We'll wait a while, and your granddaughter will chat with you."
"Yulan is still the best." Madam Li couldn't hide her love in her eyes. "Don't worry, no one will bully you with me here."
at the same time.
Yi Hui was making her daughter's bed, a lifelong wish of hers. She choked up and said, "These are all top-quality quilts. They're warm to sleep on. Try lying down on them."
Liu'er comes over.
He waved to his wife and whispered a few words in her ear, then they both looked into the house.
Yi Hui said, "Yuyu, I'm going to the main courtyard."
Jiusu originally wanted to go to the Jiang residence to see her lover whom she hadn't seen for many days, but at the moment, it seemed that there were more important things to do. She said calmly, "Mother, do you want to see Grandmother? I'll go with you."
My daughter is well-behaved and smart.
Yi Hui hesitated. "Your grandmother has a proud temper. If she says anything hurtful, don't take it to heart. She's a good person, but she has a very sharp tongue."
Jiusu guarantees again and again.
"I will definitely not be sad, nor will I be angry."
The two walked hand in hand to the main hall, and were met with a strong gaze. Yi Hui bowed and said softly, "Mother, this is Yuyu, my daughter, your granddaughter."
He emphasized the word "darling" and glanced at Li Yulan who was fidgeting.
Jiusu knelt on the ground and said, "Granddaughter greets you, grandmother. May you live a long and healthy life, and be blessed with good fortune and happiness."
Mrs. Li looked arrogant, but her granddaughter was quite sensible.
But the more she looked at her face, the more it looked like Yi Hui. She said calmly, "Get up. You are quite sensible. But Yi Hui, don't forget your adopted daughter who has been with you for seventeen years just because you have a biological daughter."
Yi Hui said, "Mother, she has committed a heinous crime and is no longer a daughter of the Marquis' Mansion."
Madam Li waved her hands in disdain and she retorted.
"Yulan has already told me that she's just afraid that if you find your biological daughter, she won't love her anymore. This is just a little girl's trick to win your favor. I'm the one who makes the decision. Forget about the past."
Then she tilted her head and looked at her granddaughter.
"Go and apologize to your mother."
Li Yulan trotted over and threw herself on the ground: "Mother, I was wrong. Can you please forgive me?"
Bang! A slap hit Li Yulan's face.
Everyone present widened their eyes.
Yi Hui's smile faded as he said coldly, "I told you to run away last time, and you still dare to come back, Li Yulan? Do you really think I have no temper? Don't force me to report it to the police. Get out of here!"
Liu'er grabbed Li Yulan's arm and dragged her outside.
She hated Li Yulan so much. If it weren't for this woman, the lady's recovery would not have been in vain, and the young lady would not have fallen off the mountain and almost fell into the tiger's mouth.
Madam Li was so angry that she was shaking all over. She slapped Liu'er twice and looked at the slave girl kneeling on the ground with her mouth full of rebuttals. She said angrily: "Little bitch, I'm not dead yet! Yi Hui, this is your good maid! How dare you disobey me? I shouldn't have agreed to let you be my daughter-in-law..."
"Grandma, there's something I don't understand." Jiusu said in a deep voice, "What would you do if someone hurt your mother and pushed you off a cliff?"
Madam Li blurted out: "Cut that man into pieces!"
Jiusu's eyes narrowed, and he said seriously, "What a coincidence, my granddaughter is also one of them."
She grabbed Li Yulan by the collar and threw her out, ignoring the rage of Mrs. Li behind her and supporting Yi Hui, like a little cotton-padded jacket supporting her mother.
Li Yulan knelt in the yard, tears streaming down her face.
"Jiusu, I've admitted my mistake, why are you forcing me so hard?"
Jiusu said: "She murdered her mother, kidnapped and extorted, and offended the Crown Princess's sister. She has a corrupt character and no moral integrity. She has been expelled from the Marquis' Mansion. Anyone who dares to let her in again will be sold into slavery."
