Chapter 181 I will never eat pig's trotters again
Received the signal from Mrs. Zhou.
The next second, the maid suddenly ran out.
He knelt down in front of Jiang Wanqing.
"Madam, you don't need to report to the authorities. The hairpin has been found!"
Jiang Wanqing glanced at the maid suspiciously: "Oh? You found it so quickly?"
A layer of cold sweat appeared on the maid's forehead.
She quickly explained, "I found this hairpin not long ago this morning, but I haven't had time to tell the old lady and my cousin yet. I've caused the lady to misunderstand me."
Jiang Wanqing knew that Old Madam Zhou was afraid.
He had to hand over the hairpin.
Then he asked, "In that case, where is the gold hairpin?"
The maid subconsciously turned around and glanced at Old Madam Zhou.
Seeing Mrs. Zhou gesture.
Then he said, "I will go get it right away."
After saying that, the maid stood up and left in a hurry.
Jiang Wanqing then carried Xiaoxiao and walked to the seat below Old Madam Zhou, waiting for Jinchai.
When Old Madam Zhou saw Jiang Wanqing's leisurely appearance, she felt a pang of pain in her heart when she thought of the ten thousand taels of gold.
He was thinking about something at that moment.
He slowly said, "Jiang, now that Ziqi is married, my body is not very good, should you take over the housekeeping power?"
Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows and remained calm.
This means he wants to give the housekeeper rights to himself.
Could it be that the 10,000 taels of gold were enough to overwhelm Old Madam Zhou?
Is there no spare money to subsidize the Marquis of Xingchang’s Mansion?
However, Zhou Ziqi got married, and the biggest spender in the entire mansion left.
The monthly allowance of the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion is also sufficient.
As the mistress of the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion, I should now restore the reputation of the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion.
after all…
Jiang Wanqing lowered his head and looked at Xiaoxiao with a complicated expression.
Now Xiaoxiao's surname is still Zhou.
It won’t happen that Xiaoxiao will be laughed at by others when he grows up.
Just when Mrs. Zhou thought Jiang Wanqing was going to refuse again.
When preparing to lobby earnestly.
Jiang Wanqing said, "Since it is mother's wish, I am willing to do so."
When Mrs. Zhou heard this, she hesitated for a moment.
"Do you really want to?"
Jiang Wanqing smiled and asked, "Could it be that mother-in-law regrets it again?"
Madam Zhou quickly shook her head.
Another look signaled to the maid beside him.
The maid handed the key she was carrying to Jiang Wanqing.
Madam Zhou then said, "After much thought, I think your housekeeper is the most appropriate."
Now that she had just lost 12,000 taels of gold, she didn't want to use her own money to fill the hole in the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion.
It would be better to hand this hot potato to Jiang Wanqing.
Jiang Wanqing smiled.
But his eyes turned to Song Nansheng.
He said, "Now, shouldn't the most urgent matter in the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion be to solve Sister Nan Sheng's matter? We can't let Master Xiang stay in the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion all the time. This is not a good thing."
When Song Nansheng heard this, his face froze and he looked at Old Madam Zhou.
Madam Zhou hesitated for a moment.
Then he said slowly, "The imperial examination will be held in about a month. It would be better to let Mr. Xiang concentrate on studying at home. If he passes the exam, it will also bring honor to Nan Sheng. There is no need to rush them to get married at this moment."
Jiang Wanqing raised his eyebrows. He thought that keeping Zhuang Xiangyu in the Marquis of Xingchang's mansion might be a motive.
He hesitated and said, "Master Zhuang is just an outsider after all. Would it be bad for him to stay in the Marquis of Xingchang's mansion?"
Madam Zhou waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Just say that he is a teacher invited for Mu Sheng!"
Jiang Wanqing heard this but didn't say anything else.
He said obediently, "Mother-in-law is right."
Jiang Wanqing was even happier.
Zhuang Xiangyu is a gambler.
Let a gambler teach Zhou Musheng...
She wanted to see what Zhou Musheng would become in the end!
Song Nansheng looked at Old Madam Zhou with flickering eyes, unsure of what she wanted to do.
Just then, the maid came back.
The maid came to Jiang Wanqing and respectfully handed the box in her hand to Jiang Wanqing.
Jiang Wanqing signaled with her eyes, and Nanny Su stepped forward and opened the box.
Inside the box, there is a pair of exquisite gold hairpins.
Nanny Su looked at her for a while before nodding at Jiang Wanqing.
Jiang Wanqing then stood up again.
She bowed to Madam Zhou and said, "Mother-in-law, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."
Madam Zhou nodded.
After Jiang Wanqing and his group left.
Song Nansheng asked anxiously, "Aunt, why did you keep the man surnamed Zhuang here?"
Old Madam Zhou turned her head to look at Song Nansheng and sneered, "If we let Zhuang go and let him spread the news everywhere, will he be able to marry the cousin of the Marquis of Xingchang right away?"
After hearing this, Song Nansheng felt that there was some truth in it.
but…
Song Nansheng hesitated and said, "It doesn't mean that we should kill him secretly."
Madam Zhou sneered, "Of course he has to die! But before he dies, he still has a little use to make use of! If there were no strangers, how could I let Jiang Wanqing have an affair?
"Having an affair with her cousin's future husband, to suppress this scandal, can't we just find a fault and kill Zhuang Xiangyu? We can also get evidence against Jiang Wanqing, isn't that killing two birds with one stone!"
Listening to Madam Zhou's plan, Song Nansheng felt it was really brilliant!
He then took Madam Zhou's arm.
She said coquettishly, "It has to be my aunt. My aunt is worthy of being the mistress of the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion for many years! She is really smart!"
Look at Song Nansheng's appearance.
Old Madam Zhou couldn't help but reach out and poke Song Nansheng on the head.
"Look at you! You are usually quite smart, but why do you always lose to Jiang Wanqing now? And that hairpin! Wasn't it five thousand taels of gold? How come it has become ten thousand taels?"
Speaking of which, it was not so easy for Old Madam Zhou to accept the 12,000 taels of gold.
A hint of coldness appeared in Song Nansheng's eyes.
It's just ten thousand taels of gold!
Mention it again and again!
If Zi Gu were here, he would definitely not let himself suffer this injustice!
Song Nansheng remained calm and said with a smile, "Aunt, when we have evidence against Jiang Wanqing, we can control her. Won't we have ten thousand taels of gold?"
After Song Nansheng mentioned this, Madam Zhou's mood suddenly improved a lot.
After Jiang Wanqing left the front hall, she headed towards Zhou Musheng's yard.
However, just as I stepped into Zhou Musheng's yard.
Then he saw a plate coming towards him and it broke into pieces instantly when it landed at his feet.
At the same time, a voice was heard.
"Get lost! I will never eat pig's trotters again! You are all bad people!"
Jiang Wanqing held Xiaoxiao in her arms and couldn't help but take a step back with a frown on her face.
