"No, I can't let Master continue to have contact with her." In the room, Xu Ranyun said to Aunt Jiang angrily, "I finally drove her out of the backyard and let her go to Meiyue Tower. I can't fail and watch her move back."
"But grandma, if my master really has feelings for her again, what can you do even if you don't want her to come back?" Aunt Jiang was also worried. Things happened too suddenly, and they didn't have a chance to respond.
Xu Ranyun narrowed his eyes and suddenly sneered, "This matter is not only bad for me. Isn't Xue Zhilan always pretending to be a good person? Madam also likes her. This time, she must make an effort. You find a way to reveal this matter to Aunt Jing. I will ask for information here. If Xue Zhilan is unwilling to take the lead this time, I will also risk being a good wife and mother. When that woman comes back, we will all be in trouble. I don't believe she won't be anxious."
Aunt Jiang said anxiously, "Grandma, you can't do that. Although Grandma Lan doesn't get along with you, when Grandma was still in the backyard, she was the only one who could be humble in front of Grandma. Although Grandma was jealous and bullied her, because she was gentle, Grandma must treat her better than you. What's more, there has been no distribution at Meiyue Tower in the past few months. How could Grandma not know that this was all Grandma's order? So if Grandma comes back, she and Grandma Lan will definitely join hands to deal with you. At this moment, how can Grandma Lan stop Grandma from coming back? Now that most of the housekeeper's power is in your hands, she is already at a disadvantage."
Xu Ranyun sneered, "I don't believe that she can join hands with that woman just to avoid being at a disadvantage. She is not a fool. If the grandmother really takes care of me, can she let her go? Who doesn't understand the principle of lips and teeth being cold? Moreover, judging from what I am saying now, I obviously have compassion for that woman again. If I just take the lead, I am sure I will hate me to death, and let her reap the benefits. At this point, it is difficult to do either way, so I might as well drag her into the water as well."
Aunt Jiang thought for a while, then said dejectedly, "What grandma said makes sense. In this case, I will tell Aunt Jing about it and see what grandma Lan will do."
Compared to the undercurrents in the mansion, the conversation in the North Courtyard was relatively relaxed. Duan Tingxuan chatted with Grandma Fang for a while, and when Grandma Fang asked about the origins of these dishes, he told her everything. This shocked Grandma Fang, and she pondered, "When I saw those two girls, I was stunned, but I didn't expect that it was Nuan Nuan who made them. When did she have such skills?"
Duan Tingxuan smiled and said, "Not to mention grandma, even I don't know. I heard from Honglian that she had this skill at home. After she came to our house, she valued her status and rarely cooked. Then Zhilan came in, and the next year Ran Yun also came in. Ahem, there is nothing grandma doesn't know about her grandson's temper. Nuannuan was angry with me, so she simply refused to show any of her skills..."
Before she could finish, she saw Old Lady Fang shaking her head and saying, "Alas! She was wrong in this matter. It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. She should have tried to win your heart. If she had shown her cooking skills earlier, how could she have done all the things below? Is she afraid that you would not revolve around her?"
Duan Tingxuan heard this, huh? Although he really liked the food Su Nuannuan cooked, he must not let his grandmother think of him as a foodie whose appetite controlled his brain. If this reputation was confirmed, it would affect his glorious image. Yin hurriedly said: "Grandma, that's not what you said. What Nuannuan did in the past, even if she showed these skills, my grandson would not tolerate her."
"Really?" Old Lady Fang raised her eyebrows and looked at her grandson with a half-smile: "Then how can you tolerate her now? Isn't it because of the food?"
Duan Tingxuan blushed, and coughed to hide his embarrassment, then said seriously, "Grandma, have you ever heard that people who are about to die tend to speak kindly? Nuannuan once attempted suicide and almost died. After she came back to life, she actually gained some wisdom. I've seen that she's not as vicious and domineering as before, so I've gotten closer to her. Otherwise, am I the kind of person who doesn't know right from wrong just for the sake of delicious food?"
"I know my grandson." Grandma Fang nodded slowly. Duan Tingxuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a chuckle, "Is that right? I know that my grandmother knows me best."
"Well, my grandson is a very good child. He always speaks and acts in a steady manner. He speaks in such a righteous tone. If he hasn't encountered any major incident, then he must be feeling guilty." Old Lady Fang continued to nod slowly.
"Grandma, who said I felt guilty?" Duan Tingxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Besides, why should I feel guilty?"
"It's a good thing to be grateful for someone's food." Old Lady Fang looked at her grandson with a meaningful tone.
Duan Tingxuan was defeated, and raised his hands and said, "Alright, alright, whatever you say is fine, I am your grandson after all. As long as you are happy, you can eat my meat."
"What nonsense! Why would I eat your meat when there are so many delicious meats like pork, beef and mutton? Those fantasy novels say that human flesh is sour and not tasty."
Duan Tingxuan was completely out of temper. Who could have thought that the old lady would change her attitude after eating something delicious? He was thinking about how to praise Su Nuannuan and let the old lady support his decision to arrange her back to the backyard, but unexpectedly, the old lady had already seen through his intentions and laughed, "Since you said that Nuannuan has changed her ways, and she can cook so many delicious dishes now, why don't you let her go back to the backyard?"
"Who said she has changed her ways?" Duan Tingxuan blinked in confusion: That woman is clearly more ferocious than before, okay? Just for these four dishes, she had blackmailed him into such a state?
"Didn't you say that? She has gained enlightenment and become extremely wise?" Now it was Old Lady Fang's turn to be confused.
"It's true that she has gained great enlightenment and wisdom, but she has not changed her ways." Duan Tingxuan sighed sadly...
"This... Grandma doesn't understand. How can you say you have attained enlightenment but still not change your ways?" Grandma Fang was indeed completely confused. Seeing her grandson was like a cabbage that had been hit by drought, her head drooped all of a sudden. She said aggrievedly, "Grandma, why do you ask me when you already know the answer? Although Nuannuan has attained enlightenment, her hatred towards me has not diminished at all. Instead, it has become even worse. Didn't you see that today is the Dragon Boat Festival and she didn't even show up?"
Old Lady Fang was speechless and murmured in her heart: Grandson, I am not asking questions even though I already know the answer. I really don't know.
