On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent
Chapter 7 It's a great thing
Because of the anxiety, Lin was brought directly from the Buddhist temple.
He didn't change his clothes or wash or dress up, and was still wearing the coarse cloth clothes he wore when he was in the small Buddhist temple.
Just like that, a pale, thin, ragged, unkempt woman walked in with a hunched back.
Even if she were walking down the street, she wouldn't be associated with any lady, yet she just appeared before everyone.
The nanny had a complicated expression. Although she had inquired about it before coming, she never expected that the wife of the Jiang family would become like this. She looked even shabbier than the maids in the house. One could imagine what kind of life she had been living in the mansion for so many years.
I heard that the Jiang family has had concubines in charge of household affairs for many years. Although the master of the Jiang family does not hold a high official position, it is unheard of that a concubine is in charge of an official's house.
He glanced at Madam Jiang lightly, and cold sweat was almost coming out of Madam Jiang's forehead.
These inconsiderate people actually brought the person here like this. Are they afraid that the people in the princess's mansion won't know about the ugly things happening in their family?
The nanny came to pick someone up, so she naturally wouldn't ask about the dirty things happening in the Jiang Mansion.
"Now that we're here, let's go."
Madam Jiang wanted to say something, but the nanny didn't even look at her and signaled the people behind her to help Lin out the door.
Old Madam Jiang felt like there was something stuck in her throat, her old teeth were almost broken, and she watched helplessly as Lin was taken away.
Jiang Nian had been waiting outside. When he saw Lin being helped out, he loosened his clenched hands slightly and nodded slightly.
When Mrs. Lin saw her daughter, she wanted to say something, but because there were so many people around her, she didn't dare to look at her daughter for long, for fear that someone would notice.
Jiang Nian had already told her yesterday that someone would come to pick her up today, and asked her not to be nervous. Just follow her, as she would normally do.
Lin knew what her daughter was thinking, and she couldn't let her daughter down.
The people from the princess's mansion helped Lin into the sedan chair, nodded to Jiang Nian, and rode back to the mansion.
As soon as the sedan chair in front of the door left, Madam Jiang's face was gloomy, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison, and she tapped her cane: "Come, call Jiang Nian to me!"
Jiang Nian did not follow the people from the princess's mansion. She had known what would happen today.
The Jiang family hated and feared the Lin family, and the same was true for Lin. The entire family wanted her dead. If it weren't for the imperial decree, her mother would have been killed when her grandfather left Beijing.
The Jiang family panicked. Her mother coming out of the Buddhist temple meant that the Lin family still had a chance to turn things around.
As soon as he stepped into Shou'an Hall, he heard a furious shout from above: "Kneel down!"
Jiang Nian paused, ignored her, and walked into the house to ask, "Grandma, what do you mean?"
Madam Jiang's eyes were like knives, her chest heaving with anger. "You still don't know you're in the wrong! Lin is a criminal, and you actually took her away today? Do you really care about me, your grandmother?"
Lin, the Lin family has only one daughter, who was the darling of the Lin family back then. She has suffered in the Buddhist temple for so many years. How could she have any affection for the Jiang family?
He showed his face in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess. If he used the Princess's support to take revenge on the Jiang family...
"Grandma, what are you talking about? Mother was taken away by the people from the princess's mansion. If you really didn't want her to go, you should have made it clear on the spot." Jiang Nian said innocently.
"Snapped!"
The old lady slammed her hand on the table, her neck turning red with anger.
If Madam Jiang really had the courage to do this, Mrs. Lin would have been dead long ago.
"How dare you! Someone, open your mouth!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a maid came forward and said calmly, "If grandma really makes a move today, don't even think about entering the princess's mansion again."
"My granddaughter is kind enough to help my father with his future, but you, grandma, are unwilling to do so? In that case, I will no longer make plans for my father. I will let him rely on himself from now on."
Jiang Dechang worked hard for ten years. Ten years ago, he was a sixth-rank official in the Ministry of Rites, and ten years later, he was a fifth-rank official. If he could really rely on himself, he would not have seen no improvement after so long.
A fool like this will never be able to turn things around in his lifetime by relying on himself.
Sure enough, Madam Jiang's expression changed: "Stop."
The maidservant withdrew in response. Madam Jiang picked up the money from the old lady of the Jiang family and asked in a deep voice, "Do you really mean what you just said?"
Jiang Nian suppressed the emotion in his eyes, raised his confused eyes and asked, "Grandma, aren't you unwilling? It's your granddaughter who is meddling in your affairs. Since you don't want to, I won't say anything to avoid upsetting you."
Old Madam Jiang was a little embarrassed. She was so angry about Lin's matter just now, but she really wanted to know what Jiang Nian meant by what he said just now?
Do we really want to plan a future for Dechang?
Madam Jiang's expression immediately changed. She smiled and ordered the maid, "Quick, serve tea to the young lady."
Then he looked at Jiang Nian and said kindly, "Sister Nian just came back from the princess's residence. She must be tired. Please sit down quickly."
The maid helped Jiang Nian sit down, and Madam Jiang couldn't wait to ask, "Sister Nian, do you really want to help your father with his future?"
Jiang Nian sneered in his heart: "Of course."
If it were someone else's family, Mrs. Jiang might not believe it, but whether Jiang Dechang could be promoted depended on Princess Huaining's words.
At that time, there was an official in the court who had not been given a high position for many years. Princess Huaining only said "not bad" in front of the emperor, and he was promoted the next day.
But that person had an unfortunate fate. Not long after he ascended to the surface, he drowned. Everyone said that it was a waste of the word "Princess Huaining was good".
No matter how much Mrs. Jiang disliked Jiang Nian, she could still tolerate it when it came to her son's future.
"Then tell your grandmother what you want to do?"
"Grandmother, you don't know. Last time, I sent my maid to get some medicine. I wanted to exchange the tranquilizer in the sachet. As a result, I happened to run into someone from the princess's mansion who took a fancy to my sachet."
Old Madam Jiang was confused. It was just a sachet of medicine. Why would the princess's mansion want that thing?
"That sachet was embroidered by my mother. Your Highness has a cloak that he treasures very much. When it got a hole, he wanted to find someone to repair it. However, the embroidery was complicated, and no one he had looked for was satisfied. The embroidery was the same as that on my sachet, so he summoned my mother. Grandmother, isn't this a good thing?"
Just saying this is certainly not a good thing.
After all, Lin's surname is Lin. Now that she has gained power, she naturally thinks about the Lin family. How could she think about the Jiang family?
Jiang Nian continued to coax her, "Grandma, I'm doing this all for Father. If I hadn't been thinking about Father, I wouldn't have told Mother about it. Now that Mother has married into the Princess's Mansion, we'll have another layer of connection with the Princess's Mansion. Isn't that good?"
After hearing this, Old Madam Jiang finally understood.
If Lin works for the princess, she will have to go in and out of the princess's mansion frequently in the future. Then she can bring Feng and Nian Jie'er with her to show herself in front of the princess.
Wouldn't it be a good opportunity to let Dechang and Mingyuan go and pay a visit?
Good thing, really great news!
