Of course, she might also really want to keep herself alive, because if she died, no one would appreciate her pride, and the joy of victory might be halved!
"What's wrong with you, kid? Are you feeling unwell?" Lian Jinyu saw the sadness in her eyes and spoke quickly.
Her expression was so strange that it couldn't help but arouse Lian Jinyu's suspicion.
An Qingran smiled and said, "I was just thinking, if I really get married one day, and if I marry far away and can't come back once a year, what should I do?"
"Just this?"
"Yes, otherwise, mother would think something happened to me!" An Qingran smiled innocently.
Lian Jinyu looked at her and thought for a while, thinking to himself, maybe he was dazzled, how could such a young child have such a sophisticated look in her eyes?
The mother and daughter were sighing, but they didn't know that in another yard, another mother and daughter were swearing to them with gritted teeth.
Lian Jinrong knew in her heart that if she only caused Lian Jinyu to have a miscarriage, she would get pregnant again as she was still young and strong. The only way to solve the problem once and for all was to kill two people at once!
Not only did she want her to die with her child!
She began to think about hiring an assassin.
Of course, it would be best if this was an accident, that is, she ran into a thief while she was pregnant.
However, the guards at the General's Mansion were very strong, and a petty thief with a little skill was not capable of sneaking in and out without being discovered. If she was caught, she would certainly be sold, which put her in a difficult position.
The ideas that An Yanran came up with were nothing more than some childish tricks. Lian Jinrong felt that her daughter's spiritual energy seemed to have disappeared ever since the incident between her and King Kang.
Every day was different from the previous one. Now she hated An Qingran to death, but she just sat there blankly, unable to think of any good ideas.
This made Lian Jinrong feel a little exhausted.
Of course, she would feel the strain without such a big helper.
The old lady is in Beiyuan.
She was secretly angry. Are all the women in the general's mansion dead? She has done everything she can. It's impossible for an old lady like her to do it herself, right?
No wonder they have been concubines in the mansion all this time, it is what they deserve for being so stupid.
Any ideas?
The main reason is that Lian Jinrong is too stupid.
The other concubines all had no children, so of course they thought that whoever had one would have one, and they were just here to watch the fun. Only Lian Jinrong should plan for herself.
The old lady thought that Lian Jinrong might be frightened by what happened. She had criticized her to some extent, but that was just superficial. Couldn't she see it?
Thinking of this, the old lady asked someone to invite Lian Jinrong over.
Lian Jinrong was a little flattered by the old lady's invitation. She sat there and smiled and said, "What instructions does mother have for her daughter-in-law?"
The old lady pointed at the cakes on the table and said, "Try it. I asked someone to make this specially for you. I can't send it to Lian Jinyu because I really don't know what a pregnant woman should and shouldn't eat. I just remember that when I was pregnant with Zhongyuan, I didn't have any dietary restrictions. People nowadays make a fuss about everything, as if they were carrying a child or a dragon!"
Lian Jinrong's eyes widened in surprise. It was really strange to hear such words coming from the old lady's mouth. Wasn't it she who sent supplements and told Lian Jinyu not to mistreat her grandson? How could such a statement suddenly come out? Was she wrong? Or did she hear it wrong?
And it is very strange why the old lady only mentioned Huai Zhongyuan and not her eldest son. Isn't this general's eldest son worthy of her pride?
"Yes, when I was pregnant with Mingxuan, I worked with the maids. It's just that my sister is a little older, so it's okay for her to be a little delicate. I just have to be careful!" Lian Jinrong said with a smile.
She didn't want the old lady to catch her.
She already has enough evidence against her.
If there was another one, she would be afraid of losing her life.
The old lady shook her head and said, "I just think you are still like me when I was young, and you are also efficient, so I only want to chat with you. As for the others, although I am old, I don't give in to them. I am not afraid of you laughing at me when I say this!"
Lian Jinrong was even more shocked now. She hurriedly said with a smile, "Mother, you are evaluating me like this. I really feel bad about it. If I were really capable, I wouldn't be just a concubine!"
"That's not right. Before I came here, I heard that you were the head of the General's Mansion. All our decorations, all our preparations, and even the guest list were drawn up by you and Yanran, right?"
"These... turns out my mother already knew about them!" Lian Jinrong had not expected this.
She found that this old lady was indeed a powerful one.
"Yes, how can I not appreciate all that you have done? It's just that there are some things I can't say, such as Zhong Tao's punishment for you. As a mother, if I interfere too much, people will inevitably talk about me and say whether I am fair or not. I am an old woman of such an old age, and you are all my daughters-in-law. To be honest, my sons are mine, and my grandsons are mine. Whoever makes my son happy is my daughter-in-law... I have some rouge and powder here. Although you have seen good and bad ones in the palace, you may not know this kind of perfume powder. It is made by an old friend of mine. It is made by mixing the stamens of more than a dozen famous flowers, finely ground, without a trace of lead powder..."
When she said this, Min'er had already taken out the pollen, and Lian Jinrong received it as if it were an imperial edict. It was packed in a carved silver box. When she opened it and smelled it, she could smell the strange fragrance that made her heart beat fast.
She knew that this was definitely top-grade rouge, and she was afraid that even the imperial palace did not have such good stuff.
She couldn't help but say with shining eyes: "Mother thinks of her daughter-in-law like this, and I really don't know what to say."
"What are you talking about? The mistress of the house is pregnant now, so I am naturally concerned about my son. You have to serve my son well, and then I will be happy. In fact, I think women have a misunderstanding. They fight and quarrel with each other, but they don't know that whoever truly captures the man's heart will naturally have everything!"
Lian Jinrong finally understood what the old lady wanted to say.
After the old lady sent her away, she sighed, "Really? You don't even understand this. Instead of working hard on your man, you talk nonsense. I don't know why you are so stupid. An Zhongtao, you deserve to have such a stupid wife."
Fortunately, there was no one in the house.
There was no longer the earnest expression on her face, but instead a sinister one.
If someone saw this, they would be very surprised. Why did she love An Zhongyuan so much, but never liked An Zhongtao no matter what he did?
