C104 No in life

Old madam Zheng's words were actually spoken to let Zheng Qingjiao think it through. Qingluo was already the princess of the Prince Yi's Mansion, and would only be able to help others with Qingluo's help in the future.

However, the old mistress had done all that she could do, and the rest could only rely on herself. If Qing Jiao couldn't figure it out, then she would have to bear all the hardships herself.

"Qingluo, it's all because of Grandmother's carelessness. This house is being managed a little loosely, from now on Grandmother will clean up the house thoroughly and never let this happen again. Don't worry, Grandmother has a grandmother."

Old Madam Zheng was really afraid of her granddaughter, but she said that if she really was afraid to go back to the Zheng Mansion, then this girl might really not want to go back.

"Grandmother has been worried. This is my own home after all, how could I be afraid of returning? Second Sister probably didn't do it on purpose, and maybe I tripped on my own feet as I walked."

These words made Mo Ju unable to stretch her body anymore, she wanted to step forward to say something, but Mo Fu grabbed onto her waist and pinched her, causing her to shiver in pain. She gritted her teeth and did not dare to make a sound.

After all, they were in the madame's room, making a ruckus without reason. The ruckus that had just broken out had taken a lot of effort, so she did not want to be the one to earn money for the third miss.

"Grandmother knew you were a well-behaved person, so I just reminded you in vain. Come, come, this is your favorite dish from your past. Grandmother had prepared the recipe a long time ago and wanted to make you something you loved to eat. I can't ruin Grandmother's reputation."

Old Mistress Zheng extended her chopsticks and pointed to a plate of Golden and Silver String Rice Scrolls. Bai Mei immediately helped her put the cloth into the plate, and Old Madam Zheng then looked at Qing Luo with a smile.

"Thank you grandma, all of them are things that Qingluo loves to eat." Qingluo took the dish and placed it in her mouth. It was a little cold, but the taste was still there. After all, it was all the old mistress's intentions and she understood it all.

Big Sis also eats it. I remember that you love to eat the Three Fresh Abalone Tendon that is stewed with chicken soup the most.

On the other hand, Mo Fu did not hesitate to take the chopsticks and send it to Zheng Qingjiao's plate. Even if Zheng Qingjiao did not want to use her people to serve her food, it had already been sent to the plate.

When the taste spread out, she forgot to be angry at others. She lowered her head and started to eat the dishes. As she ate, she used her chopsticks to light up her favorite dishes and let the girl carry them into the bowl.

This scene made Madam Zheng shake her head for a long time, but Zheng Qingluo was already used to it. When they were in Weir Prefecture, when Master was not around, Madame Zheng also called her over for a few New Year meals.

But she only placed a bowl of soup in front of her, saying that the oil was so oily that it didn't fit Qingluo's taste, and Qingluo would then eat the rice in front of her, then look at her two sisters, instructing the girls to carry all the favorite dishes onto the plate.

What was there to brag about bullying a child who was only a few years old? If she truly felt that she had done it openly, why hadn't she done it in front of the Master Zheng?

Qingluo remembered that the few times she appeared at the reunion table, were all when the Master Zheng wasn't at home and when she looked at her now, Qingluo sneered.

As the saying goes, in thirty years, in thirty years, in the west, no one will stand on high ground forever, and the ground beneath their feet will be the real thing.

Since they were all women, the food in the backyard was faster. Even if Old Madam Zheng wanted to chat with Qingluo more, it wouldn't take long. On the contrary, Seventh Prince and Master Zheng's meal in the backyard had other intentions.

"Father-in-law said that we should relax our management of the people as much as possible and not put too much pressure on them?" After hearing what Zheng Mingrui had said just now, Seventh Prince had a sudden enlightenment.

He had never believed that this person, who seemed to be unable to even understand the affairs of a mansion, would have any accomplishments in the field of politics. Today, after hearing what he had said, he came to a conclusion that the past investigations were not empty.

"Yes, this is also something that this official has learnt in the nine years I have spent in Weir Prefecture. Prince, even water can carry boats, although everyone has heard these words, and everyone knows how to speak them, once they reach your side, it will be very difficult for you to do anything."

"The people are water, and since he can make you float, he can also make you sink." The people are water, and since he can make you float, he can make you sink.

"I totally don't remember how many citizens there are in the counties under my jurisdiction. Once they are forced into a corner, it isn't a question of whether you can crush them to death, but whether they can overturn your ship."

Seventh Prince nodded his head at these words. The image of Master Zheng in his heart had changed a little, after all.

"Father-in-law, I can see that you aren't the least bit muddle-headed when it comes to your work. Your nine years of outstanding accomplishments are not fake at all. However, since you can see the situation so clearly, I don't understand why you can't see through such a big house."

Seventh Prince drew a circle with his hand and Master Zheng understood what he meant. He was asking himself why he was so confused about the matters of the family.

"Seventh Prince — —" The cry caused Master Zheng's face to turn red. It was all thanks to the alcohol that he drank that his drunk face was covered with a blush of shame.

"It's because this official is too confident and believes too much in his own eyes. He thinks that what he sees and hears are real. Who would have thought that his own daughter would suffer so much just for this little bit of confidence."

Master Zheng was a little sad. He knew that this daughter of his would never come back, no matter how he tried to make up for it, he could only make up for it with his blood.

There were some things that he really wanted to talk to others about, but no one would listen. He was so stifled that his heart was about to explode, and now that Seventh Prince had asked him about it, he couldn't care less about it being his son-in-law anymore.

"Speaking of which, Qiu's was not like this in the beginning, I was the one who spoiled her too much and did not know it. This was all because of me, I can't blame anyone but Qingluo."

Master Zheng's thoughts drifted back to over ten years ago. That considerate and virtuous woman had stood in front of him, looking a little shy but also a little bold.

"Qiu's has been following me since I was young. I can't deny that she accompanied me through so many years of hardships. In the beginning, she was just a second-rate girl in the mansion, sent to my room by the old lady."

"Qiu's is afraid that I don't like her, so she was always careful and respected the madame and took good care of me. At that time, I was still young, and felt that if someone was so sincere to me, then I would have to be sincere to take care of myself."

"Otherwise, this Book of Virtue would have been read into the stomach of a dog. It wasn't until the madame gave an official a proper marriage and married Qingluo's mother and the Chiang entered the door that things changed."

"At that time, Qiu's had just been born, and she was extremely terrified when she entered the Chiang. Every day, she would be careful in front of me, afraid that she would miss a step and lose a lot of weight in a few days, with her chin so sharp that it could be a hammer."

"How could this official not feel heartache? After all, she gave this official two daughters. This official will comfort her. Even if my wife enters through the door, she need not worry. This official will care for her. That woman, she only took a seat …"

That woman, that gentle, beautiful, and talented girl, that woman that the entire capital had praised, she was born and destroyed in his hands. And in his heart, she was only a woman who held a place in his heart.

Master Zheng facepalmed, not knowing what to say. He paused before continuing, "Chiang entered the door, and this official only entered the main house on the night of the candles."

"But in the middle of the night, I heard that Qiu's was in a bad situation, had a headache and vomited, and was unable to get up from bed. This official can only rush over and see, and know that she was acting like this because she was too worried and missed me, this official absolutely cannot ignore that."

This time, it was Luo Qingqi's turn to support his forehead, "So on the night of the bridal chamber, Master Zheng abandoned his official wife and went to a room?"

Seventh Prince Luo Qingqi didn't even call him father-in-law, if not for the fact that he held the identity of a father-in-law, Luo Qingqi really wanted to punch him out.

"You can't even tell what such a despicable method is? This brain of his is really strange. I really don't know what kind of illness could come so quickly and coincidentally, and it's neither too early nor too late. "

"Have you ever thought about whether that person in the room was afraid or not? Did she also think that you wanted to abandon her? No woman would be so easily abandoned on their wedding night."

That person was Qingluo's mother, and was a gentle and loving woman. Yet, she was unwilling to meet others and had no way of living.
