As more and more people gathered in front of the door, the old lady was expecting the spittle to fall on Lin Shi, but unexpectedly, the others started talking about Jiang Mingyun framing Lin Qingwan.
Jiang Mingyun grew up under the old lady's care, so naturally, it was her reputation that was ruined.
Although Madam He felt sorry for her daughter, she couldn't stand being pointed at. "Mother, it's cold outside, why don't we go inside?"
The old lady said coldly, "You spineless thing! Have you forgotten how Mingyun almost cried herself to death when she was forced to shave her head!"
"She was lame and became a nun, and you've already forgotten her so quickly."
Tears welled up in Madam He's eyes, and her legs went weak as she tried to kneel. "Mother, please stop talking."
"Hmph. Then open your eyes and see clearly that the person who drove Mingyun to her death is still standing here unharmed. What's the use of crying your eyes out!"
That's why he came to the Prime Minister's residence to vent his anger.
Madam Lin said calmly, "What Mother said makes sense. If a child makes a big mistake because he wasn't taught well, it will be too late to regret it."
The old lady glared at her fiercely, "Don't talk about her! And how did you raise Ah Lin?"
Lin's lips were tightly pressed together.
Fortunately, Jiang Su returned from court at this time. Seeing the situation, he rubbed his temples and stepped in front of his wife, saying, "Mother, what are your instructions? Let's go inside and talk."
The old lady didn't argue with Jiang Su and got up and went into the mansion without hesitation.
Regarding Jiang Mingyun's matter, the old lady, out of consideration for Lin Qingwan, did not pursue it further. Instead, she used Jiang Zhenlin's mistake as an excuse to ask Jiang Su to arrange a place for Jiang Mingting.
This time it wasn't the Swift Cavalry Battalion, but the Ministry of Revenue's Agricultural Department.
Jiang Su flatly refused, "The Ming court has made no achievements and can't even pass the imperial examinations, how can it go to such an important place?"
"Your daughter harmed Aheng's daughter, so it's only right that you compensate Mingting!"
"What have you spoiled Ah Lin into? Do you want the whole capital to laugh at the Jiang family's descendants for being so useless?" The old lady and Jiang Su started arguing.
Jiang Su frowned. "Hmph, Jiang Mingting works for the Gao family. If I send him to the Ministry of Agriculture now and something happens, I won't even be able to keep my position as prime minister."
"Nonsense! How do you know something bad will happen!"
Jiang Suyi said righteously, "Absolutely not. If Mother insists on forcing me, I will hang myself in front of the door."
"You!" The old lady was speechless, "You worthless wretch!"
