Thinking of this, the old lady's expression softened a little.

Finally calmed down.

"It's good that you think so." She sighed, "We also have our difficulties. Now that you know it, you should also understand that we don't mean any harm."

Song Anning smiled slightly, understanding.

The old lady tentatively said: "Then over there at the Embroidery Department..."

"Grandma has always loved the younger generation, and she has no ill intentions. However, the person in charge of this huge Chiang Mansion is not my grandmother, which makes my granddaughter-in-law inevitably feel a little worried. Just like when I went to Zhuangzi before, my grandmother may not know, but But the granddaughter-in-law really saw it. Aunt Lin actually prepared instruments of torture, rotten medicine and other things on the Zhuangzi to burn her face. You think, someone who can do such a thing, let the granddaughter-in-law do it? How can my daughter-in-law live peacefully under her hands?"

The old lady froze.

"You...you know..."

"Yeah, I know."

At this moment, Song Anning no longer had to deny it. She looked at the old lady directly and said in a deep voice: "So grandma, do you still think that what I did today is too much? People regard me as fish on the chopping board. Do I really want to be slaughtered by others?"

old lady:"……"

Her heart sank hard.

The face is not very good-looking.

"Then you mean..."

"Ask the mother-in-law to hand over the power of the mediator, and the granddaughter-in-law will keep the secret. As for the embroidery department, the granddaughter-in-law will also ask them not to pursue it any further. Although the granddaughter-in-law has reported the case, it is a family matter. As long as the granddaughter-in-law opens her mouth, she will I believe they will not waste any more manpower and pursue the case further.”

The old lady took a deep breath.

"Okay, I can promise you."

Song Anning curled her lips.

The old lady added: "But you also have to agree to one condition."

"Grandma please tell me."

"If Hua'er needs help from the Song family in the future, you must spare no effort."

Song Anning blinked slightly.

The smile on his face gets deeper.

"Of course, we are husband and wife, and my granddaughter-in-law still understands the principle of both prosperity and loss."

"That's good."

The old lady seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked at Song Anning again, feeling a little uneasy inside.

"Over there at the Prime Minister's Mansion..."

"Miss Li is the daughter of the prime minister. She has a noble status and a very pure character. It shouldn't be difficult to get along with such a person as a sister."

The old lady's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise flashed across her face.

"You think so?"

"What else?" Song Anning pretended to be a little lonely after all, and said softly: "Since ancient times, isn't it normal for men to have three wives and four concubines? Without Miss Li, there would still be Miss Zhang and Miss Wang. Instead of that , it would be better to be Miss Li from the beginning, which will be beneficial to my husband's career. Only when my husband is good can I be good, and I understand this."

The old lady was overjoyed.

I really didn't expect that Song Anning could be so successful.

She originally thought that it would be difficult to persuade Song Anning to be Jiang Hua's concubine. After all, she was married to a matchmaker and hired by three matchmakers and six. If someone could really be a wife in this world, who would be willing to be a concubine?

But now, Song Anning took the initiative to propose...

Of course the old lady would not think that what Song Anning said would mean that Miss Li would be her concubine and she would be his wife.

After all, she is the prime minister’s legitimate daughter!

She is a merchant girl, and to put it bluntly, she is married to the same man as the prime minister's daughter. That is a high price. How can a noble girl from a high family be subordinated to her?

Therefore, the old lady took it for granted that she had taken a step back and was willing to be Jiang Hua's concubine in exchange for her own bright future.

The old lady beamed with joy.

"I'm very happy that you can think like this. You are right. One will be prosperous and one will suffer. To be honest, your family is a merchant. Even if you go back home with Li, the best result is to marry a merchant. , you may not be able to marry as your first marriage. In the future, if you give birth to a child, you will be a merchant, which is something that several generations of people will not be able to hold their heads up."

"With Hua'er, although the children born in the future can only be concubines, Hua'er's status is precious. Even if he is a concubine, whether he will become an official or an official in the future is not a matter of words. You, everything I was confused, but only on this matter, I finally came to my senses.”

A flash of sarcasm flashed in Song Anning's eyes.

But he didn't say anything, which seemed to be acquiescing to the old lady's statement.

So, that afternoon, the old lady directly announced that she would take back the power of the Qin family and hand it over to Song Anning.

Naturally, Mrs. Qin refused and ran to the old lady's house to ask her for an explanation.

The old lady was so noisy that her brain hurt.

"I know you are wronged, but the grievances are temporary. Song Anning relented, saying that as long as she is given the power to control the family, she can be Hua'er's concubine. After all, the Song family has a deep family background, and Hua'er's career will cost a lot in the future. Money, we can’t ask the Li family for this money. Even if we dare to ask, will the Li family be willing to take the money?"

"It's already good that Li Xiang can marry his daughter to Hua'er. We can't be too greedy, lest we offend people, offend the in-laws, and lose a good marriage. It's too late to regret it then."

When Mrs. Qin heard this, although she was still angry, she couldn't say anything more.

"So, mother just let that little hoof climb on my head?"

The old lady sneered.

"What's the hurry? Let's appease her first and deal with the Embroidery Department first. When Hua'er becomes the Marquis in the future, it's not Hua'er who has the final say whether she should take power or not, and what position should be given to her. She is a woman who is manipulated by a man. Her whole life's honor and disgrace rest on Hua'er, so don't worry if you can't manipulate her."

When Qin heard this, she felt relieved.

So, that night.

Song Anning went to the Yamen of the Xiuyi Department and told them that she did not want to pursue the issue of the corpse being fake.

Pei Qingyan sat behind the dark red lacquered wood table and looked at her with deep eyes.

"You really don't want to pursue the case?"

Song Anning said: "Yes, I won't pursue it any further."

"Haha, are you...soft-hearted?"

She didn't know if it was her misunderstanding, but she actually heard a hint of ridicule from the adult.

She couldn't help but raise her eyes and glanced at the other party quietly.

But seeing that the mask on his face was as dark as ink, and his eyes were also dark and thick, making it difficult to see clearly, so he quickly lowered his head and said: "The civilian woman is not soft-hearted, she just knows that doing this will not benefit her. People live in this world, and everything is for profit. Since it is useless, why insist on it? It is better for everyone to take a step back and get what they need."

Pei Qingyan paused.

He said angrily: "I thought you cared more about innocence."

Song Anning curled her lips, "What is innocence? It's just an invisible and colorless name that lives on the lips of the world. Besides, as long as it is confirmed that Jiang Hua is not dead, my name as a traitor will be automatically cleared. Why bother to prove my innocence again? Yesterday Thank you for your help. From now on, the daughter of the people can go on her own."
