Chapter 220 A helping hand
"We have successfully gained the old lady's trust, but relying solely on the trust of Old Lady Jiang may not be enough to accomplish anything. Jiang Shuyu is avoiding me right now, so I'm afraid she will be difficult to deal with!"
Seeing Jiang Wanrong's worried look, Ruogu stood up and came to the table, brought Jiang Wanrong a cup of ginger tea, and then looked at her and comforted her:
"Don't worry, young lady. Now that you have gained the old lady's trust, and with the old lady acting as a matchmaker between you two sisters, it's only a matter of time before you reconcile as before.
As long as people outside know that the girl has a close relationship with Duke Dingguo's Mansion,
In this way, those powerful people outside will not dare to look down on the girl, so that the girl can use the power of the Duke Dingguo Mansion to seek benefits for herself.
Now that the third lady has not forgiven the girl yet, the girl should let outsiders see that the relationship between the girl and the third lady has been eased. In this way, when the matter has been settled,
There is no way for the Third Lady to change her mind. Even if she did, she would not be able to say anything. By then, she would have already conceived a child with His Royal Highness Prince Rui and would be living happily together. Why would she care about the Third Lady's opinion? "Miss, do you think what I said is still reasonable?"
Now lowering her status to please Jiang Shuyu has made Jiang Wanrong feel tormented. Now Ruogu's words have touched Jiang Wanrong's heart. When she thought of the wonderful life in the future, Jiang Wanrong's face rarely showed a smile. She immediately looked at Ruogu and said with satisfaction:
"Aunt is right. As long as I can use Jiang Shuyu to pave the way for me, even if I have to suffer some grievances, what does it matter? I will have to trouble you for help with the next matter. As long as Wanrong can sit in a high position, she will definitely not forget your kindness to me!"
Seeing that Jiang Wanrong valued her efforts so much, Ruogu felt a rare excitement in her heart. She immediately looked at Jiang Wanrong and expressed her attitude, saying that she would definitely lend her a helping hand.
The two discussed the wedding the day after tomorrow. Ruogu saw that Jiang Wanrong looked tired, so she helped her to rest in bed and arranged for Miaohan to serve her. She then prepared for the wedding arrangements.
Yuan Peishan happily returned to the mansion to move her things, preparing to continue living in the Duke Dingguo's mansion to show her prestige.
You must know that since they moved out of the Dingguo Mansion, their status in Kyoto has plummeted. Although they have the title of Princess Rui of Jiang Wanrong, everyone in Kyoto knows that the two concubines in His Royal Highness Prince Rui's Mansion are not fuel-saving lamps. Moreover, Xiao Jinrui's attitude towards Jiang Wanrong is also intriguing. It is still unknown how long Jiang Wanrong's title of Princess Rui of Rui can last. After all, if she does not get the favor of Prince Rui, even the Princess Rui who is personally married by the emperor may not be so popular. Therefore, their mansion is cold and deserted, and no one is willing to come and get close to them. But now that they have moved to the Dingguo Mansion, it is different. No matter what, this lean camel is bigger than a horse. The treatment in the Dingguo Mansion is a thousand times better than theirs.
Yuan Peishan only cared about the glory in front of her, but she didn't know that even if she moved to the Dingguo Mansion, it would not be a long-term solution. After all, in the Dingguo Mansion, except for Old Lady Jiang who was willing to give Jiang Wanrong some face, there were countless people who disliked them. For example, Yuan Peishan couldn't get past Yan Xiaojun.
At this time, Wei Mama was walking towards Yan's courtyard with the old lady's instructions.
Yan naturally knew that Jiang Wanrong had saved Old Madam Jiang. She had been busy serving Old Madam Jiang for a long time until Old Madam Jiang woke up, and then she dragged her tired body to save her.
Yan's health was not good to begin with. Although she was able to stop taking medicine under Jiang Shuyu's care, she could not bear the long period of busyness. So after she came back, she had been resting in the yard. As for Madam Jiang's arrangement to let Jiang Wanrong marry out of the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion, Yan had not yet received any news.
When Wei Ma Ma came over, Yan Shi's eyes flashed with surprise. She didn't know why Wei Ma Ma came over at this time. Could it be that the old lady was not feeling well again? Suppressing her doubts, Yan Shi hurriedly looked at Wei Ma Ma and asked:
"Madame Wei, why are you here at this hour? Could something have happened to the old lady? Have you asked the imperial physician to come and see her?"
Thinking about her own coming here, and looking at Yan's worried expression, Wei Mama couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed to say what she was going to say next. However, since it was the old lady's order after all, Wei Mama had no choice but to bite the bullet and look at Yan and say:
"Madam, don't worry. After taking the medicine, she is no longer in any serious condition. I came here for something else. I wanted to tell you about it so that you can have a better idea of what to do!"
Hearing that Madam Jiang was fine, Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, the Duke Dingguo's Mansion couldn't afford to suffer any more setbacks. However, Nanny Wei's unfinished words also aroused Yan's vigilance. Seeing Nanny Wei's hesitation, Yan's eyes flickered slightly, and then she looked at Nanny Wei and asked:
"I wonder what the nanny is here for this time!"
After hearing Yan's question, Wei Mama looked at Yan and said:
"To answer Madam, the Second Miss is bedridden in order to save the Old Madam. The doctor said that the Second Miss should not move now. The day for the Second Miss to get married is just around the corner, and the Old Madam feels bad about it.
So, I asked the old servant to come and tell Madam that the second young lady was married directly from the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion. The eldest young lady had just married not long ago, so Madam must be familiar with the place and can get twice the result with half the effort. The old lady values Madam's ability very much, so please pay more attention to it and make sure that the second young lady's wedding is a grand occasion. The emperor's grace is so great that the majesty of the royal family must not be obliterated! Madam, you said..."Is that so!
Before Nanny Wei could finish, Yan's eyes widened and she suddenly stood up from her chair. She looked at Nanny Wei with a complicated expression and said in a stunned tone, "What did you say? Mother asked me to take over Jiang Wanrong's marriage now? Isn't this asking too much? Not to mention that Jiang Wanrong is marrying the current prince, His Royal Highness Prince Rui. Even if it was an ordinary family getting married, preparations would have been made long ago. Now there are only two days left before the wedding. How can I prepare so many things in such a short time!"
