Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Before Ling Jinlan could say anything, Qin Huaizhao spoke up: "Since you have inquired about the prices of those silks, you should know how well they sell."

"All the new patterns above were painted by Jinlan."

"Jinlan earns much more per month than my salary."

After hearing these words, Princess Rong was shocked beyond words.

"Wha...what?"

"How can it be higher than your salary?"

No matter how profitable the materials are or how popular the patterns are, it is impossible to make that much money.

Qin Huaizhao said in a slightly cold tone, "If you don't believe what I say, then even if I put the evidence in front of you, you won't believe it."

"Today, our Lord Li said that Jinlan's portraits are very accurate and that he was able to capture a wanted criminal in just a few days. Lord Li wants to hire Jinlan as a painter at the Dali Temple, and the salary he offered is not much lower than mine."

"If you don't believe it, you can go to the Dali Temple and ask for yourself."

After saying that, Qin Huaizhao stood up, took Ling Jinlan's hand, and took her away.

After leaving the main hall, Qin Huaizhao felt very guilty.

After a long silence, he said to Ling Jinlan, "Jinlan, let's move out."

Ling Jinlan was slightly surprised. "Really? But your mother has only met you once in so many years. Don't you want to spend more time with her?"

Qin Huaizhao sighed, "It hasn't been long since we got married, and they're already causing trouble again and again. I'm investigating cases during the day, and I have to come back and deal with these at night. I really don't have the energy anymore."

At first he thought that as time went by, his mother would realize how good Jinlan was.

But now he was afraid that before that happened, Jin Lan would be wronged to death.

He grew up alone and didn't know how to deal with such things. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to handle it well.

In that case, it’s better to separate.

"Will you move out with me?"

Ling Jinlan nodded, "I said, wherever you go, I will go."

……

That day, Jiang Ningwan came to Huichun Hall to attend Qianqiu Trading Company's monthly meeting.

After the meeting ended, Doctor Hong told Princess Rong about what happened that day when she misunderstood the scratching powder as poison powder.

Jiang Ningwan was shocked after hearing this.

"Can this also be misunderstood as poison powder?"

After a piece of garment is made, there is not much powder left. If you don't look for it inch by inch, how can you find the remaining powder?

"I think Princess Rong is deliberately making things difficult for Jinlan!"

When Jinlan returned home a few days ago, she asked how Princess Rong treated her.

Jinlan didn't say a single bad word.

I didn't expect to suffer such grievances.

After leaving, she went directly to Prince Rong's Mansion.

But he happened to see Qin Huaizhao and Jinlan moving things.

"Where are you moving to?" Jiang Ningwan looked at the carriage convoy in confusion.

Ling Jinlan didn't expect her to come so suddenly, and explained: "Prince Rong's Mansion is too far from the Dali Temple, and Azhao gets up too early every day, so we plan to move to his small house, which is closer to the Dali Temple."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ningwan heard crying coming from the yard.

Turning around, I saw Princess Rong sitting at the stone table in the yard, wiping away tears sadly.

Jiang Ningwan guessed that it must be this old woman who was causing trouble for Jinlan and forced the two of them to move out.

But Qin Huaizhao was a person who didn't care about food, clothing, housing and transportation. His mind was full of cases in the Dali Temple. His previous small house was close to the Dali Temple, but it was very small.

It feels a bit unfair to let Jinlan move in with me.

Jiang Ningwan thought for a moment and said, "That's easy. I have a house right across the street from the Dali Temple. It's very close."

"It's spacious enough, just right for the two of you!"

Hearing this, Ling Jinlan quickly said, "No need, sister..."

Jiang Ningwan immediately interrupted her: "Don't refuse! Just think of this as my wedding gift to you!"

Qin Huaizhao knew in his heart that Jiang Ningwan didn't want her sister to be wronged, so he agreed, "Okay, thank you cousin."

Jiang Ningwan then helped them move.

It took a day to move into the new house and settle in.

Princess Rong also quietly followed all the way here. Just looking at the house from the outside, she could tell that it was so magnificent that not ordinary people could afford to live in it.

"How can Jiang Ningwan easily afford such a magnificent house?" Princess Rong was puzzled, frowning.

Shao Pei replied, "I've heard about this before. General Jiang has a lot of houses. He currently lives in the Prince of Chu's Palace, and he also has the Jiang Residence and General Ling Wei's Mansion. They're both very grand."

"She is favored by the Holy Empress. When the Empress Dowager was still alive, she often received rewards, and the Ling family also left her a considerable dowry."

"The current Third Prince is her cousin, so he must be well-off. It's not surprising that he has a private residence."

Hearing this, Princess Rong sighed, "What a lucky life!"

Watching the things in the carriage being unloaded and moved in bit by bit.

Princess Rong felt very upset. She had finally returned to Beijing, but her son was forced to leave home and was unwilling to live with her.

Could it be that she really did something wrong?

Thinking about it, she turned to Shao Pei and said, "I don't have much of an opinion about Ling Jinlan, it's just that she has too many thoughts."

"Look at Jiang Ningwan, isn't she a good person? She's more like the children of the Ling family, open and honest, cheerful and not fussy about trivial matters. People like her don't have any ulterior motives."

"Those who are quiet and gentle, seemingly weak and harmless, actually have the most vicious thoughts."

When she thought of those little vixens in Li Yang, she became furious.

Thinking about Ling Jinlan, isn't she just like those little bitches?

Thinking of this, she left angrily.

"Go and find out for me how Ling Jinlan makes her money. How can she earn more than my son? My son is the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple! What is her merit or ability?"

She still doesn't believe it.

It wasn't until Shao Pei investigated for a few days and asked many cloth shops in Kyoto that he got the same answer.

All the new patterns and styles on the market are indeed created by Ling Jinlan.

And those new patterns are very popular.

Even the ladies in the palace liked them, but these patterns were extremely demanding on the embroidery skills, were delicate and complex, and were shipped very slowly. The most popular ready-made embroidery was almost priceless.

After listening to Shao Pei's report, Princess Rong was so shocked that she couldn't recover for a long time.

"She is so powerful?"

It seems that the clothes I gave her that day were very valuable.

Too bad, I haven't tried it on yet.

I still remember the touch of the material, soft, smooth and very delicate.

After Ling Jinlan and Qin Huaizhao moved into the new house, everyone else thought it was because it was close to the Dali Temple, making it convenient for Qin Huaizhao to handle official business.

He was not aware of what was happening in Prince Rong's mansion.

Jiang Ningwan would also go to their place every now and then to sit and have a meal.

Without Princess Rong around, their relationship improved a lot.

Jinlan has a special room for drawing embroidery patterns, and this day she provided Jiang Ningwan with many new ones.

"Sister, these should be enough for you to use for a while."

"I want to go to the Dali Temple recently and help them paint their portraits."

Jiang Ningwan heard Qin Huaizhao talk about this matter and asked for her opinion.

Of course she agreed.

"Of course, go ahead and do it if you want."

With Jiang Ningwan's support, Ling Jinlan felt relieved.
