35
Helian Cheng returned to the palace and looked at his son.
The child had been with the wet nurse for a long time and gradually got used to her arms, but the wet nurse was not his biological mother.
Helian Cheng was raised by his grandfather. His parents died when he was a child. His grandfather had always been strict with Helian Cheng. He believed that personal relationships were not the most important thing. A man should make great achievements and glorify the clan.
Grandpa didn't care much about his children's love affairs, but when he was dying, tears welled up in his eyes as he still missed grandma.
Now that he has achieved success and has no woman, who will enjoy all this wealth and glory?
Thinking of this, he ordered Gao Feng again, "Send Li Ning and make sure to find out what she wants. As long as she can come back, I will reward her handsomely."
Gao Feng agreed and sent Li Ning to conduct a secret investigation.

Let Li Ning give it to Xiao Cui, which can be regarded as helping Xiao Cui.
Li Ning refused to accept her. If he did, how could he let Xiao Cui in? "Xiao Cui's brother and sister-in-law don't tolerate her. If I accept her, her life will be even more difficult. It would be the greatest help if my wife could find her a proper job."
"Of course, it doesn't matter if Madam Li hasn't found it. Slave... I will help Xiao Cui find out."
Li Jiajing agreed.
She planned to pay some money to help Xiao Cui find a job here.
Before Li Jiajing could take any action, Xiao Cui came in the next day.
