A retired aunt traveled through time and space, and her daughter became rich!
Chapter 186 The Master is the Old Lady
“Madam, this old servant listened to the old lady and did not refute.”
As Nanny Zhu recalled, she said, "I saw that old lady's speech, manner, clothing, and actions were all very different from those of ordinary old ladies from wealthy families."
She has excellent hearing and can hear so many sounds all day long.
That's why she doesn't talk if she can avoid it, otherwise she would be too tired.
But since she receives so many messages every day, she has developed the habit of observing the other party a few more times and thinking more in her heart whenever she hears unusual news.
"Last time, when my wife went to a banquet, I went with her."
Nanny Zhu lowered her voice as she spoke.
With this extraordinary ability, she always hears a lot of gossip every day, both necessary and unnecessary. Of course, as long as it has nothing to do with her wife, she will forget all the gossip as soon as possible.
However, she couldn't figure out whether some of the gossip was related to her wife at the moment, so she just kept it in mind, waiting for her to bring it up if she remembered any clues.
When Zhu heard this, she moved closer.
But he covered the child's ears with both hands.
Nanny Zhu said softly, "Madam, I heard the princess say that if it weren't for the help of the third wife and her daughter from the He Mansion, she wouldn't have gotten what she wanted. With this child in her belly, she wouldn't have to worry about seeing other people's children running around."
Although Nanny Zhu was shocked when she heard this, she did not mention it to Mrs. Zhu.
After all, she didn't think this sentence had anything to do with the Zhu family.
Zhu's eyes widened and she couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands.
"The Fifth Princess and her husband are getting divorced. Although it doesn't sound too strange at first, it would be bizarre if the Fifth Princess immediately fell in love with the young officer guarding the gate, recruited him as her new husband, and quickly got pregnant."
So, either the prince consort and the fifth princess are incompatible, or the young officer is a hundred times stronger than the prince consort. But the fifth princess went to Tongcheng and acted so decisively... It does make sense to say that she was guided by an expert!
Combined with what Nanny Zhu heard, could it be that the person who gave guidance to the Fifth Princess was actually Old Madam Su?
If this is the case, it is no wonder that the Fifth Princess would value Lin Yanniang so much.
Well, since Old Madam Su can help the Fifth Princess fulfill her wish, would she also be willing to help her figure out who her biological daughter is?
Zhu looked at Madam Zhu with a face full of surprise, "Madam, yes! Maybe it is the old lady! I will prepare a generous gift when I go back and ask Madam Su for help!"
She came from a wealthy merchant family. She had an elder sister who entered the palace and became a concubine and gave birth to a prince. It could be said that she was wealthy and had status.
When she married into the Zhao family, her dowry was five times the family property of the Zhao family. Moreover, she had been able to use an abacus to manage business since she was a child. She was not like the Zhao family, who were all very noble and regarded gold and silver as vulgar things, but they did not despise the food, clothing, and toys bought with vulgar things.
It was because Lord Zhao was still in office that the mansion could always receive some tribute money, so that it was not short of expenses. If her father-in-law, Lord Zhao, retired one day and they lost this income, they would be in dire straits and would have to rely on her dowry to make ends meet.
So, for the Zhu family, they would rather give all the money to seek advice from an expert than give it to other people in the Zhao family...
Aunt Su, her daughter and grandson went down the mountain and took a carriage back to the capital.
Although I met other ladies along the way, I never got to eat the melons on the spot.
When Aunt Su returned to the courtyard, Lin Lao Er had just returned not long ago.
Lin Lao Er's face was flushed with pride.
"Mother, Mr. Qian tried to persuade me today and wanted to buy some more elixirs from me. But I think what you said makes sense, so I haven't agreed to it yet."
Seeing Aunt Su nodding approvingly, Lin Lao Er became even more proud.
"He also asked his son to go boating on the lake the day after tomorrow, and his son agreed."
Aunt Su nodded, "You've come all the way to the capital, so it wouldn't hurt to go out and relax."
After saying this, Aunt Su took out a few small porcelain bottles and handed them to Lin Laoer.
"Here are eight kinds of elixirs, a total of forty tablets. Second Brother, you can keep eight tablets for yourself, and sell the rest to Master Qian Liu."
If Aunt Su used all of her current happiness points to buy medicine, it would be at least two or three kilograms.
But if that's the case, wouldn't this elixir not seem so precious?
Lin Laoer accepted it happily.
"Don't worry, mother. Leave these magical medicines to me. I will definitely make them very valuable!"
He also has a share in these elixirs!
Well, he is very young and he won’t need the other medicines much, so he can just leave some medicine for diarrhea for himself and some painkillers for his aunt, and the rest can be exchanged for silver!
In less than two years, he will be getting married!
There will be a lot of expenses in the future!
Lin Laoer was also divided up from his family, and he went out on his own to try to earn money by doing business. Only then did he feel the indifference of the world.
In the past, I always felt that the eldest wife was mean and the stepmother was stingy and cold.
After moving out of the Earl's House, he saw that all those friends who used to flatter him had changed their attitude.
Reflecting on the past, it is understandable that the eldest wife was mean. The stepmother was stingy but she had never done anything bad. Instead, she helped them in the end.
So, he is very calculating now.
Originally, he still interacted with Bihe from time to time, and just thought of her as having a mistress.
After that, every time he went to Bihe's house, Bihe's parents would cry poor in front of him, saying that they either couldn't make ends meet or they were in pain or sick.
It would be fine if he paid a few taels of silver every now and then, but after so long, how could he afford to support such a large family?
So I told Bihe that there are still two years before the end of mourning, and it is impossible for her to marry right away after the wedding. She will have to wait another year, which makes a total of three years. If it is delayed like this, won't she get older?
Not to mention whether the new wife can accommodate concubines after she enters the house.
It’s better to take advantage of your youth and find a good family to marry into.
And can also help their family.
Bihe refused at first, but later when she saw that Lin Laoer no longer went to her house, the subsidy was almost gone.
She didn't dare to go to Lin Laoer's house, so she could only go to the shop to find Lin Laoer and cry. Unfortunately, the way Lin Laoer looked at her was gloomy. He either avoided her or looked at her with a cold brow.
Bihe had no hope, and her parents at home were putting pressure on her, so she had to let a matchmaker introduce her to a widower who ran an oil shop. She received a betrothal gift of fifty taels of silver, and married into the family with two quilts and a set of clothes.
When Lin Lao Er heard about it, he asked a maid to secretly give Bihe a set of silver headwear, saying that it was a dowry collected from her companions in the Bo's mansion.
Therefore, Lin Lao Er is obsessed with money and is becoming more and more stingy. He has also learned the skill of sales without any guidance...
The next day, Aunt Su had just woken up and had breakfast when Lin Yanniang came hurriedly.
"Mother, the Fifth Princess heard that you have come to the capital, so she sent someone to the Duke's Mansion early in the morning, saying that she would like you to come to the Princess' Mansion for a visit."
Aunt Su's farm was seized, and the ones who seized it were Princess Huyang's servants.
If this matter were to be sued locally, it would probably be better not to sue.
That local official is not an honest official who has left his name in history, so how dare he offend the princess! Maybe he will find fault with you, the victim!
After all, Aunt Su was just an old lady from a poor family, how could she compare with the princess!
So Aunt Su had no choice but to go to Beijing.
Among the nobles in the capital that she knew, wasn't the Fifth Princess the most noble?
If the fifth princess can't help get the farm back, then probably no one else can help.
But because of the huge disparity in status, Aunt Su couldn't just run up to the Fifth Princess and reveal her purpose. So, she went to the Huangning Temple to spread the news of her visit to Beijing.
When Aunt Su went to the Fifth Princess's Mansion, she wore the same clothes as when she went to burn incense.
Originally, Aunt Su was still in mourning, so it wasn't appropriate for her to go there.
But since it was the Fifth Princess who invited her, and it wasn't a banquet or anything like that, Aunt Su had no choice but to obey respectfully.
When I saw the Fifth Princess again this time, her face was rosy and her body was plump, especially her belly, which looked like an upside-down pot on top.
When the Fifth Princess saw Aunt Su, a smile appeared on her face.
Without any greetings, the fifth princess went straight to the point.
"Madam, I am already 29 years old. This is my first child. I am really scared. I wonder if you have any good ideas to make sure this baby is safe."
It's nothing, just think about it.
Before the fifth princess became pregnant, she dreamed of getting pregnant.
When she first became pregnant, it severely shocked those people who wanted to laugh at her, take advantage of her and even do her a favor.
There is no greater joy in life than this!
But the child had been in her belly for five months, and the fifth princess began to feel uneasy again.
She had seen many women die while giving birth.
Compared to losing one's life, those suffering lifelong injuries are nothing.
What's more, there is a folk saying that as you get older, your bones become harder and it becomes difficult to give birth, especially the first child.
Although the imperial physician took her pulse and told her to just rest assured.
But she felt that these imperial doctors were very unreliable.
When the prince consort was unable to have children, they didn’t even diagnose the problem by taking his pulse!
It was Old Madam Su who guessed right away that it was actually the prince consort who had a problem!
He also gave her a secret book on how to conceive and raise a child.
So now, only when Old Madam Su came to see her and told her in person that she didn't have to worry, could she truly feel at ease.
Aunt Su concealed her guilty conscience and acted like an experienced and omniscient person.
"Although I am not an expert in medicine, I do have some experience and can give you some advice based on the princess's condition. Your Highness, please do not blame me for being too talkative and taking advantage of my age."
The princess raised a hand and covered her lips with her hands as she laughed.
"Others may not know Madam Su's abilities, but I naturally trust her."
"Ordinary people, if they want to listen to Madam Su's words, they can't listen to them."
So Aunt Su started pretending to be an obstetrician and gynecologist.
Although she has never been a doctor, she has given birth in the obstetrics and gynecology department!
In addition, there are many women in their unit, and they are very stable. Basically, young people come in and get pregnant and have babies in a few years. With so many people, there are many types of people. Some are dizzy with morning sickness, some are as strong as calves, some eat too much and have a big belly, and some eat too little and their children don’t grow well...
That’s a lot of experience!
Aunt Su asked about the princess's diet and daily life.
She wrote down every word of the princess's answer.
Of course, it’s not that Aunt Su has a good memory, but that there is a recorder in her sleeve that is turned on.
Since she was coming to meet the fifth princess, she naturally made preparations for the meeting.
Zhuangzi was a very big and frustrating thing for her.
But for the fifth princess, the gold nugget in her belly is the top priority.
She was already so old, she still knew how to look down on others, so she definitely wouldn't bring it up on her own initiative, but she did her homework in advance, what key points to ask, what indicators to observe, etc. Aunt Su had already memorized it several times...
Of course, the source of these homework was what Su Heiya had checked and told her.
As for her, after getting the princess's answer, she was afraid that she had missed some important clues, so she simply got a recorder, went back and sorted out the information, and asked Su Heiya to consult with the obstetrician and gynecologist online for a fee.
The Fifth Princess saw that Aunt Su asked detailed questions in a set manner. Some of them she could understand, but some she didn't understand but still felt powerful.
I couldn't help but admire and respect Aunt Su even more.
Seeing that half an hour had passed, he glanced at the female official beside him.
The female official immediately understood what he meant and went downstairs to arrange lunch.
This female official had also followed the Fifth Princess to Tongcheng Manor and had eaten several meals there. She knew Aunt Su's eating habits and asked the kitchen to prepare several delicious dishes specially for Aunt Su.
Aunt Su and Lin Yanniang had lunch at the princess's mansion and then left.
After all, we know that the princess is pregnant and has little energy, so if she stays away for too long, she will not be beautiful.
From beginning to end, there was not a single mention of Zhuangzi.
Of course, the Fifth Princess didn't ask either.
Lin Yanniang felt a little disappointed.
These days, she often follows the princess around and becomes very close to her.
Moreover, the mother was very kind to the fifth princess.
Now that my mother has come to the capital, the mourning period has not yet ended. If I think about it a little more, I will know that something must have happened.
But the Fifth Princess only invited her mother to meet her, and it seemed that it was because of her own pregnancy. She didn't care at all. Why did Aunt Su come to Beijing for no reason?
Aunt Su thought it was normal.
"After all, this person is a royal daughter, and I didn't expect her to be ordinary. Although we may not be able to rely on her in this matter, as long as she behaves differently from us, we can take advantage of her..."
I feel helpless and helpless.
In modern times, her approach is probably called upward management.
In ancient times, this was called thunder and rain, all of which were blessings from heaven.
The mother and daughter were talking in the carriage, but they didn't expect that just after they left, someone reported what happened in Sujiazhuang to the Fifth Princess.
