Chapter 117
"What a big joke. I, the wife's personal maid, was made to kneel down because of baseless accusations made by a concubine's personal maid." Jiangshi sneered while protecting Zuo Xiangning behind her. Twice, Zixia asked Zixia to help Cai's mother back, and said loudly like a demonstration: "Make a bowl of ginger soup for Cai's mother, and ask the doctor to take her pulse. She is old, so be careful not to cause any disease."

"Ms. Jiang, you are disobeying your mother-in-law and being unfilial!" Mrs. Zuo pointed angrily at Mrs. Jiang.

"When the master comes back later, the old lady can tell him what happened in detail and see what kind of decision he made." Jiang held Zuo Xiangning's hand and said, "You should go back and rest quickly. .”

"Mom, this Yucui needs to be investigated carefully. I think she is very familiar with the road, and it doesn't seem like she has done such a thing for the first time. I remember that Aunt Cai was also pregnant a few years ago because of Honghua, and I don't know what to do with her. Is there any connection between what happened today?" Zuo Xiangning and Jiang Shi walked out and winked at Jiang Shi, "Mother Liu and Ma Wu have done their best in providing clues and should be rewarded."

"I always make clear rewards and punishments in my work." Jiang clapped her hand and said to Butler Mingwang: "Bring everyone to Fanghuayuan."

Old Mrs. Zuo saw that Jiang and Zuo Xiangning didn't even look at her again. She was so angry that she was about to speak when Mrs. Wang, who was supporting her, hurriedly pulled her arm hard.

After Jiang and the others had gone out, Mrs. Zuo said angrily: "Look at her attitude? I am her mother-in-law! Do you think she takes me seriously? When Yi An comes back, I will definitely You have to talk to him nicely!"

"Old lady, listen to this old slave's advice and don't get involved in the fight between Madam and Aunt Liu anymore." Mother Wang persuaded her earnestly: "According to Madam's temperament, Aunt Liu gave birth to three children. Why? Maybe even stop this one in her belly?”

"That idiot has set up such a trap. If I don't help her, what else can she do?" Old Mrs. Zuo complained when she mentioned Aunt Liu, "Besides, Jiang's family is just because she has this mother Cai behind her." She is getting more and more arrogant. Look at her current attitude. How does she have any respect for me? And that fourth girl, she used to be so honest. She blushed when she spoke loudly. Look at what she looked like just now? Her eyes. How big is the glare?"

"We don't know what will happen in the court in the future, so you'd better control your temper." Mother Wang advised.

"Yi An said that the emperor was very fond of the child Xiangyun gave birth to. Every now and then, he asked King Qi to bring the child into the palace to show him." Old Mrs. Zuo lowered her voice and said, "This girl Xiangyun I’m afraid I’ll be rich and powerful.”

"Yes, the second girl grew up by your side, so she will definitely do nothing wrong in the future." Wang Ma said with a smile.

Old Mrs. Zuo thought of her neglect of Zuo Xiangyun when she first came to Prince Qi's Mansion as a concubine.

"Find out my set of pearls and hair and face, and ask the third girl to send it to Xiangyun. She doesn't have many things in her hand. When it comes time to use it, don't hold on to the situation and lose our Zuo family's. Face."

Mother Wang smiled and agreed.

On the other side, Jiang was talking to Zuo Xiangning about today's events.

Zuo Xiangning told Jiang again the arrangement she told Mingwang and Zhang Tu at the door of the house, "You should be more careful in the future. Aunt Liu may cause trouble again with the child in her belly."

"I guess it was you who made the arrangement." Jiang said angrily: "In my opinion, that Aunt Liu is just pretending and wants to take the opportunity to frame me. I will give Ruyi Courtyard a separate small kitchen for her in a while. I wonder who else she wants to rely on to get food in her own courtyard!"

"Now you are in charge of the middle servant in the house. Even if she has a small kitchen, all the rice and noodles are taken from the big kitchen. If she intends to frame her, she can still blame it on you." Zuo Xiangning originally wanted to I wanted to tell Jiang about the fifth prince, but I decided not to talk about it for now, lest Jiang become worried and angry.

After Mrs. Jiang waited for Zuo Xiangning to leave, she sent everyone out, leaving only Cai's mother in the room.

"The child in Aunt Liu's belly cannot be kept." Jiang said solemnly: "She is too pushy and shameless! Since she wants to make a fuss about the child in her belly, then I will simply allow her to do it!"

Mother Cai felt in her heart that even Aunt Liu should no longer be kept.

If King Qi becomes the emperor in the future, then Zuo Xiangyun will be the imperial concubine, then will Aunt Liu be willing to be a concubine?

Jiang discussed with Mama Cai for two days before finally formulating a foolproof strategy.On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Zuo Xiangning thought that she still had the 1 taels of silver given to her by her eldest brother and uncle, so she called Zhang Rui into the house to discuss buying a few more shops in the capital.

"This time, pick a few rooms with good locations and a slightly larger area. In case we do business on our own in the future." Zuo Xiangning said: "There is also Mingyue Mountain Villa. If there is anything missing, I will make a list. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, we will go shopping. After spring, my wife and I may go to Cangzhou to stay for a while. You can contact the tooth shop in the next few days. Before leaving, let’s buy some more girls and wives.”

Zhang Rui agreed one by one and kept it in mind.

"Let Zhang Cheng prepare a cook for the small house to be responsible for the meals for Doctor Liu, Zhang Cheng and others," Zuo Xiangning said with a smile: "I see that Zhang Cheng has made a lot of progress in his work now. You can let him go again." Pay more attention to things, and pay more attention to the rental of those fertile lands this year..."

"Fourth girl——" Zhang Rui's family suddenly ran in from outside and looked at Zuo Xiangning in panic, "Something happened at Ruyi Courtyard!"

"What happened?" Zuo Xiangning frowned slightly.

How many days has Aunt Liu been quiet?
"Aunt Liu fell in the yard. The child may not be able to survive." Zhang Rui's family said: "The third girl and the second master have passed by. Do you want to go over and take a look?"

Of course Zuo Xiangning had to go and take a look. Who knew if it was a trap set by Aunt Liu.

Zuo Xiangning stood up and said to Zhang Rui: "It seems that we can't make it today. You should do the few things I just mentioned first, and wait for the rest in a few days."

Zuo Xiangning put on thick clothes and went to Ruyiyuan.

As soon as they entered the yard, they heard Aunt Liu's shrill scream, which was even scarier than the day Zuo Xiangyun gave birth.

Jiang, Zuo Ziteng, and Zuo Xiangyu were all standing at the door of the room. Seeing Zuo Xiangning coming over, Jiang asked the little girl to clean up the east wing.

"Standing here won't help, so go wait in the room." Jiang said to several people.

Zuo Xiangning followed Jiang to the east wing, where Zuo Xiangyu and Zuo Ziteng stood motionless.

Zuo Xiangning stopped, walked back to the door, and said to Zuo Ziteng: "Second brother, Po Wen is in the house. Auntie will be fine."

Zuo Ziteng turned pale and said to Zuo Xiangyu, "It's too cold outside. You and the fourth sister go to the house and wait while I stay here for a while."

"Auntie, will everything be okay?" Zuo Xiangyu pulled Zuo Ziteng's arm, tears rolling down her face.

This was the first time Zuo Xiangning saw Zuo Xiangyu cry so sincerely.

It turns out that it's not that she won't be sad, it's just that she hasn't met anyone who can really make her sad.

"What on earth is going on?" Old Mrs. Zuo walked in from the outside, supported by Wang Ma, and cursed as she walked: "Are all the people in this yard dead? There are so many people waiting for you, how can you let someone fall? "
