Chapter 169 The Role of Gold
The new butler is much more sensible than the previous butler Li. Even though he knows that the master doesn't like this eldest daughter, he still behaves respectfully and carefully, with a smile on his face.
"My dear Miss, I am here on the orders of my master to bring you gifts and apologize to you."
He called several servants who were carrying trays behind him to come forward, and personally lifted the red cloth on the tray, revealing the golden "long bricks" inside.
Jiang Wansang raised her eyebrows, and her eyes lit up noticeably.
I didn't expect Jiang Gaoyuan to be so aware. He knew that the things would be exchanged for money once they fell into her hands, so he just gave her gold.
It seems that the outside public opinion has indeed had a significant impact on him.
That's right. Jiang Gaoyuan has been the prime minister for so many years and has maintained a good reputation for so many years, but he has recently been involved in scandals and jokes one after another. It would be strange if he was not anxious.
The housekeeper carefully observed Jiang Wansang's reaction, and when he saw that she was obviously very satisfied with these things, he felt relieved.
He quickly said something nice: "The master is very busy with government affairs, and the affairs of the mansion are all handled by the lady, so the master is not aware of many things, which is why the eldest lady has been wronged."
Even the butler himself felt a little guilty after hearing this.
If the master had not instructed her, how could the lady have done so many things to blatantly oppress the eldest lady?
Even if the master really didn't know about it, he should have discovered it after it happened, but he still didn't do anything. Doesn't that mean he agreed?
Although he thought so in his heart, the butler was just a servant and could only bite the bullet and do what his master asked him to do.
"Master said that the eldest lady was wronged, and these were taken from Madam's private treasury to comfort her. We are all family, so I hope the eldest lady will not argue with Madam, and don't let people think that the relationship between the members of our family is not good in front of the Grand Master."
Jiang Wansang automatically ignored the long string of words he said before, which sounded better than singing, and immediately caught the attention of the four words "Master Imperial Master".
They wouldn't think that the commotion outside was Pei Zhanzhou's intention, right?
Thinking about the fact that he had asked Lin Tong to do this and that he was able to get things done so efficiently, perhaps Pei Zhanzhou was really involved in it.
Although Jiang Wansang had just guessed this, she didn't show it at all on her face.
With a big wave of her hand, she asked Lin Tong to put away the two trays. She looked at the butler with a smile and said, "Please tell the Prime Minister that since the Prime Minister's wife has shown such great sincerity, I will certainly not be stingy anymore."
The housekeeper, who had thought she would make things difficult, breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said he would definitely pass on the message. However, he did not rush to leave. Instead, he spoke cautiously again: "Madam's birthday is coming soon. The master meant that Tingsang Pavilion is also part of the Prime Minister's Mansion. The eldest lady is the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, so naturally she must attend..."
His voice got lower and lower, and he was obviously lacking confidence.
Outsiders may not know, but as the housekeeper, how could he not know that it was the Madam who sent people to decorate Tingsang Pavilion but was driven out, which led to what happened later!
Jiang Wansang's gaze fell on the servants behind him who were lowering their heads and nervously grasping the things in their hands. His eyes were deep, and it was unknown what they were thinking.
Judging from these people's reactions, how scary is she?
Obviously she is stunningly beautiful, like a fairy!
Just when the housekeeper's heart was about to jump out of his throat due to her stare, Jiang Wansang finally said, "Come in."
The sudden loosening of her stance made the butler think he was hallucinating. After a long while, he finally reacted and quickly invited everyone in, as if he was afraid that she would go back on her word.
Lin Tong followed Jiang Wansang, carrying a tray, and asked curiously, "Young lady, have you forgiven the Prime Minister's wife just like that?"
He thought that given Miss Jiang's personality, she was good-tempered enough not to kick them out directly, let alone agree to let them in to dress up as Tingsang Pavilion.
Doesn't this mean agreeing to attend the Prime Minister's wife's birthday party?
If gold had such a great effect on the young lady...
If everything in the Imperial Master's Mansion were exchanged for gold, it would be enough to fill up the entire room!
Jiang Wansang had no idea he was planning to give her gold. She looked at the busy servants and chuckled softly, "Do you really think that a little fuss outside can make the Prime Minister apologize?"
This time, it was only the Prime Minister's wife Meng Lianshu who was disgraced. The previous public opinion involved Jiang Gaoyuan himself, and he never bowed his head to apologize. How could he give in easily this time?
I'm afraid their real purpose is this birthday party.
Although Lin Tong was a little smart, he couldn't think of so many twists and turns in his head, so naturally he didn't understand the meaning of Jiang Wansang's words.
But he knew that since the young lady said so, Prime Minister Jiang must have bad intentions, and he must be extremely vigilant to protect the young lady!
Jiang Wansang had no idea about Lin Tong's mental journey from planning the gold to being determined to protect her, and was counting the gold on the tray.
They are all genuine goods and there are quite a lot of them. I didn’t expect Jiang Gaoyuan to be so generous.
No, these were all things from Meng Lianshu’s private collection, so of course Jiang Gaoyuan seemed generous.
He is the prime minister and the head of the family, but he actually set his eyes on his wife's private vault. He is really not afraid of being laughed at!
I don’t know if anyone laughed at me, but it’s true that Meng Lianshu was angry.
Jiang Gaoyuan had already made Jiang Wansang angry by asking her to apologize, but he also had to take things from her private vault, and even took so much of them...
Master, don’t you know that anything you send to Tingsang Pavilion is like throwing meat buns at a dog, and it will never come back?
But the master had already given the order and had stayed at Aunt Wei's place for more than half a month. This was a warning specifically given to her, and she had no choice but to listen.
In the final analysis, it’s all the fault of that bastard Ting Sang Ge!
If it weren't for her, how could I, the prime minister's wife, have suffered such humiliation?
Meng Lianshu's face was full of viciousness, and his eyes fell on several portraits placed on the table next to him.
The portraits were all of young men, mostly familiar faces in the imperial city, of varying status, and with complex forces behind them.
Finally, her eyes fell on one of the portraits. The man in the portrait looked quite handsome and was the son of the Minister of War, Sun Shuo.
Sun Shuo had a pretty good reputation in the imperial city. He was considered a young talent and had long passed the age for marriage. However, for some reason, he had never married.
Mrs. Sun, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, said that her child had no interest in romantic relationships and only wanted to achieve success, and as parents, they could do nothing about it.
But Meng Lianshu knew that because of her son's affairs, Madam Sun often went to Changyue Temple outside the city, which specialized in performing rituals for nobles.
Coincidentally, the abbot of Changyue Temple and Meng Lianshu are old acquaintances, and she happens to know some secrets that others don't know.
