Chapter 62 Fight Back
In the evening, when King Jin came back, Jiang Changning told her the date of arrangement for him to sleep in his concubine's room, and said thoughtfully: "I will tell Jin Ya to remind you when the day comes, and I will help you remember it."
Prince Jin's face darkened slightly, and he looked at her with complicated eyes.
"Is this day arranged inappropriately?" Jiang Changning asked uneasily.
"It's not inappropriate, it's unnecessary." King Jin said.
unnecessary?
Jiang Changning was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood that it was indeed not necessary. He explained: "The concubine asked me to arrange it. If you don't like it, just pretend that I didn't arrange it. You can do whatever you want."
He is a prince, he can be willful, he can sleep where he wants, he can go to bed when he wants, and if he encounters Lai Yuexin, at worst he will have a few more intercourse girls.
"I will tell my mother and concubine about this. There is no need to arrange it in the future." Prince Jin leaned on the pillow and said, "Come here and let me hug you."
Jiang Changning hesitated for a moment, took off his shoes, climbed onto the kang, and leaned into his arms.
King Jin hugged her and said nothing.
After being quiet for a while, Jiang Changning remembered something, "Yong Zhou, Mrs. Chen, when do you want her to come over?"
"What Chen family?" King Jin asked.
You were still traveling with others during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and you forgot about it so quickly?
Jiang Changning didn't believe it, but still reminded him with a smile, "The Queen Mother issued two marriage decrees, one is to point me to you, and the other is to point Chen to you."
King Jin frowned slightly, "Let's talk about it in two or three months."
Jiang Changning didn't care, it would be two or three months later.
At the beginning of the next day, Pu family, Zhou family and Liu family came to Rujingyuan to wait, but they just entered Nuange.
At the second quarter of the lunar month, Jiang Changning came out dressed up and saw the three of them dressed exactly the same as yesterday.
Jiang Changning snorted coldly, "When did Prince Jin's Mansion become so poor that you don't even have the money to buy a few more winter coats?"
The three of them knelt down with panic on their faces and said, "Princess Rongzhen."
"Tell me." Jiang Changning sat down on the kang with a majestic expression.
"The Concubine Mourning said that one porridge and one meal should be remembered that it is not easy to get there; half a thread, half a thread, always remembering the difficulty of material resources. We are in the inner house and cannot earn a penny. We should not be too extravagant and should be frugal." Pu Pu.
Shi said.
Jiang Changning chuckled, "She's right."
Mrs. Pu looked up at Jiang Changning in shock, and when she met Jiang Changning's eyes that seemed to see everything, she quickly lowered her head.
"I'm going to pay my respects to the concubine. You should go back to the courtyard." Jiang Changning stood up and walked out.
Mr. Park's ability to apply eye drops is a little off.
The three concubines escorted Jiang Changning out of the courtyard and watched her go away.
Mrs. Liu asked with a sad face: "What should I do? The princess seems to be afraid of mourning the concubine?"
Zhou sneered, "I told you this method won't work."
"My method is not good, so you should think of another method." Mrs. Pu said angrily.
Zhou was about to say something, but when he saw the little maid next to him, he changed his words and said, "Go back to the courtyard first."
The three concubines wanted Jiang Changning to seize power. Jiang Changning knew it, but Jiang Changning had other considerations.
If Mrs. Qiao would be an honest housekeeper, not make small moves, not make things difficult for her servants, and not push her around in front of the concubine.
Jiang Changning really didn't want to compete with her for the right to manage the house. It was good to enjoy the scenery, read books, practice piano, sleep, and do yoga every day. But on this day, Mrs. Qiao deliberately prevented the dining room from giving Lady Cui the fish and chicken she wanted.
.
Of course, Mrs. Qiao did not deduct the ingredients from the small kitchen, she only deducted a few ingredients that Mrs. Cui asked for.
"Why do you like doing things like this that can't hurt anyone but hurt them so much?" Jiang Changning held his chin in one hand and leaned lazily on the pillow.
"Just like Miss Zhuang Wu." Fu Cui put the peeled walnut kernels in front of Jiang Changning.
Jiang Changning reached out and picked up a piece, put it into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it, "Let Chunlai get the money to buy it outside. I want to see what she can do."
"Don't you need to spread the word about this?" Shu Fei asked.
Jiang Changning smiled, "Don't worry, I have to suffer a little more to show her dominance."
"Hasn't the princess suffered enough injustice these days? Now she even deprives her of food. If she goes on, she will get slapped on the face." Shu Fei said angrily.
Jiang Changning thought for a while, "I'll find an opportunity to fight back."
The opportunity came as it came. The next day, the concubine told her two daughters-in-law about going to Prince Qing's Mansion in a few days to celebrate Princess Qing's sixtieth birthday.
Jiang Changning said with a surprised look on his face: "Sister-in-law is going too?"
Without waiting for the concubine to speak to Mrs. Qiao, she continued: "Grandma Zhuang is also a widow at home. She never goes out. She only stays at home to be filial to her parents-in-law and to raise her daughter. I thought my sister-in-law is the same."
"Mr. Chun'an County, you compare me with a classless woman, how can I be the same as her?" Mrs. Qiao said dissatisfied.
"What's the difference? They are all women who keep the rules for their husbands." Jiang Changning sneered at the matter of keeping the rules, but that didn't stop her from using this matter to embarrass Mrs. Qiao.
He deliberately lowered his head and said to himself: "The banker is a family of officials, and they still abide by the etiquette of the family, but the palace does not pay attention to it, which confuses me."
The concubine's expression suddenly changed. Although she had been married to the prince for many years, she was still proud of her family background.
Mrs. Qiao panicked and called out: "Concubine, I..."
"You will stay in the mansion, and the banquets outside will be handed over to Brother Yu's daughter-in-law." The concubine addressed Jiang Changning more affectionately.
"Concubine, the county master is young and has just been married. He doesn't recognize everyone. How can he socialize with others? If something goes wrong, it will bring shame to the Jin Palace." Mrs. Qiao said eagerly.
"Sister-in-law, you are worrying too much. How could I make a mistake when my mother and concubine gave me advice? Besides, I am Princess Jin. I can go to the banquet just to give them face. Who dares to find fault with me?" Jiang Changning said domineeringly.
The concubine smiled and said, "Brother Yu's daughter-in-law is right." A daughter from an aristocratic family should be so arrogant.
"Concubine, I..." Ms. Qiao still wanted to fight for it.
Jiang Changning calmly said, "Sister-in-law, you just like to go out and socialize, and you don't want to stay quiet and observe the rules? Could it be that, oh, look, what nonsense am I talking about?"
Jiang Changning pinched the handkerchief and covered his mouth, with a proud smile in his clear eyes, which made Mrs. Qiao's teeth itch.
"Just stay at home." The concubine looked at Mr. Qiao with a look of disgust.
"Yes, concubine." Mrs. Qiao responded helplessly.
The two sisters sat there for a while and then came out of the concubine's yard.
"Ms. Jiang, stop, what do you want to do? You think you will win if you don't let me go out to socialize." Mrs. Qiao said angrily.
Jiang Changning smiled, "Sister-in-law, it's my mother-in-law who doesn't let you go out to socialize, not me."
"If you hadn't said those words, why would my mother-in-law not let me go out?" Mrs. Qiao said bitterly.
Jiang Changning's face darkened, "Sister-in-law, if you make a move, I will take it. If I make a move, you will have to suffer."
"What do you want?" Mrs. Qiao looked stern but felt sad.
"Everyone respects me one foot, and I respect others one foot. I will not offend anyone unless they offend me, sister-in-law, remember this." Jiang Changning left with his maid.
Mrs. Qiao looked at her back with gloomy eyes.
In the next few days, Mr. Qiao was very calm and did not act like a monster. I don’t know if he was holding back some big move.
Jiang Changning calmly told Xiulan, "Ask Xiaochun, if Liu Ye learns the rules well, then arrange for her to be an errand."
