Chapter 100 100: Such a thick skin

  Lu Youping patted Liu Shi on the shoulder, and said with relief: "My mother is right, as long as her screen can be liked by the Queen Mother, I am not afraid that I will not have the chance to enter the palace."

  As long as the Queen Mother is happy, Concubine Shu will still value Pearl.

  Xiangxiang was favored by the queen again, alas, how did he give birth to two promising daughters.

  The complacent Lu Youping was completely unaware of how desperate it was for his own daughter to seek refuge with Concubine Shu and the Empress respectively.

Lu Xiang helped the old lady out of the Mingjiao courtyard, and when she was far away, the old lady looked back at the courtyard and sighed helplessly: "Xiangxiang, your father's ears are soft and easy to be fooled by others, you must not go there. Take it to heart, it will cause a rift between father and daughter."

   "Well, my father gave birth to me and raised me. It's still too late for me to be grateful, and I won't have any quarrel with my father." Lu Xiang said with a sweet smile.

  Lu Youping has countless shortcomings, but he never uses his children as pawns. The reborn Lu Xiang has resentment towards him, but no hatred.

  It is impossible for her to treat her father with the same trust and sincerity as a grandmother.

   Just live in peace like this.

The old lady smiled gratifiedly: "Okay, although the Qiao family is not very rich, they are good at doing business. Your sister-in-law knows more than you from childhood, and your sister-in-law discusses things about the mine. Don't listen to your father. Shi coaxed your father around, who knows how much went into her pocket."

   "Also, you just told me about this and the news leaked out within a few days. Go back and check the people around you carefully. It's not scary for the servants to be ambitious. What's scary is betraying the master and not being forgiven lightly."

Lu Xiang nodded: "Well, don't worry, grandma, I can't hide this matter for a long time, and I expected it to spread. As long as the sister-in-law cares, the Qiao family loves their daughter and will devote themselves to running the mine. Extravagant hope, and our family also has a few shops, and it doesn’t make much money every year just by collecting rent. When the sister-in-law takes over the housekeeping, she will find a way to take care of it, and the Lu family’s wealth will become more and more prosperous. Yi, the concubine Zhen will also have more confidence in the palace."

  The old lady looked at Lu Xiang with emotion, and her affection was beyond words: "It's hard for you to think about the Lu family wholeheartedly. It is a blessing for the Lu family to have such a sensible and well-behaved child like you."

  Lu Xiang bowed her head shyly.

  She is not for the Lu family, but only for grandma.

  As long as it is what grandma wants, she will try her best to do it.

  It doesn't matter if the father and the concubine don't love her, as long as they don't intentionally harm her.

  Seikiin Temple

  Qiao Jingru looked at the account books and keys on the table in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

Mother Wen came and went in a hurry, and after delivering the things, she simply said: "The young lady first understands, the old lady arranges the old slave to help the young lady get started as soon as possible, and if you don't understand in the future, just ask the old lady. The young lady is young, I hope that the eldest and young mistress will take more care to guide her."

  She knew every word, but why couldn't she understand a single sentence?

   "Mother Ding, what does grandma mean...?" Qiao Jingru asked her nanny in a daze.

  Mother Ding is getting old, so Qiao Jingru seldom asks her to do anything, and takes care of the maids for her in a semi-retired state in Qinghui Courtyard.

   "Amitabha, the young mistress has finally come out." Mother Ding folded her hands excitedly and bowed to the sky: "With the power of the family in hand, master, your position in the Lu Mansion will be stable. I really want to thank Miss San."

  Liang Chen also said happily: "Third Miss likes to eat, Mama Ding will cook a delicious meal tonight and invite Third Miss to eat."

   "That's right, Liang Chen, you go to invite the third lady right now, and I'll go shopping." Ding's mother said, and went out happily.

  Qiao Jingru: "..."

  So the two of you just decided not to ask the master what I mean?

  Qiao Jingru looked at the account books piled up on the table and the box with the keys, with mixed feelings in her heart, and she was even more grateful to Lu Xiang.

She has always been able to see that her grandmother intends to cultivate Lu Xiang and wants her to take over the hands-on donation. When she gave Lu Xiang the profit from the mine a few days ago, she asked herself to give 10% to the old lady with her. She didn't think much about it, she just thought about using a part of it for public use, and it would be good for her to make her grandmother happy. She was worried for a long time when her grandmother didn't want it.

   But seeing Lu Xiang's heartless appearance, she was slowly relieved.

  At that time, Lu Xiang also asked her: "Sister-in-law, if you are asked to share 20% of the profits, would you be willing?"

  She nodded without saying a word: "As long as you say it, I'm willing to take it all."

  She lived a wealthy life since she was a child, and she didn't worry too much about money. Besides, if Lu Xiang asked, she would agree to anyone within her ability.

Only a few days later, the news that her father let her take charge of the house suddenly spread throughout the house, and the old lady also agreed, and asked Mama Wen to pack up the things and send them over. Qiao Jingru was both excited and excited. In a trance, like stepping on soft clouds, there is no sense of reality.

   Soon, Lu Xiang entered Qinghui Courtyard with cheerful steps, and immediately saw Qiao Jingru standing in a daze in the flower hall.

   "Sister-in-law invited me to dinner to thank me? Why don't you give me your pair of glazed bottles, I will use it for flower arrangement when I go back."

Qiao Jingru came back to her senses, and gave her a dumbfounding look: "You're going to **** me before I heat it up in your hands, you should have already thought about it." This was brought back by her elder brother from another country when he went out to run a business. Only this pair is very rare.

   "Don't say it so bluntly, I want to save face."

   "You have such a thick skin, you can't lose face." Qiao Jingru smiled and gently pinched her face: "Take it, take it, if you want anything, just take it yourself."

  Lu Xiang was flattered: "Sister-in-law is so generous today? I'm not used to it."

   "It's cheap to be good, but this girl is in a good mood today. If you help me like this, even if the yard is emptied, I won't dislike you."

   "You said it, don't regret it." Lu Xiang winked at Qiao Jingru, smiling slyly.

The corners of Qiao Jingru's eyes trembled violently, and then Lu Xiang said to Yun Zhe and Ah Man, "Quickly, go to the study and take that painting of Luoshen back to my room to hang in my room, it's an authentic work from the previous dynasty. "

  Yun Zhe saw that his young lady looked like a bandit, the corners of his mouth twitched in embarrassment, and he kept winking at the young lady.

  Master, please take it easy, didn't you see that the young mistress is clutching her chest?

Qiao Jingru's heart ached, and before she could ask someone to take it, she saw Liangchen holding a scroll and drawing it out, and said with a smile: "Miss San, here, don't be fooled by our young mistress' appearance, how many times are you Every time I come here, my eyes will stay on this painting, and the young lady has already said that she will find a suitable opportunity to give it to you."

  Qiao Jingru: "..."

  Liangchen, have you forgotten who you are?
