Chapter 276 - An Ugly Face for a Sick Prince
"An Yanran is An Yanran. I've just come back from Qiuwu courtyard. An Qingran is very polite and nice to me. She also said that she would take me around the various residences in the future, to meet people from the upper class and make friends with the ladies and daughters of the big families. I think An Qing Ran is fine, she doesn't have any attitude, she is polite and smart, but her face is ruined now, otherwise, there really wouldn't be any flaws."
Shen Zhiyun said as she yearned for more.
Fang Shi looked at her daughter and sighed, "Your vision is very shallow."
Shen Zhiyun, however, did not think so. In the past, she felt that this royal concubine or whatever was a rare sight. But there were two side concubines and one Crown Princess in one General's residence. It seems that the feng shui of this place is really extraordinary. She then thought that she had come here, probably by God's providence, and that she would surely be able to take advantage of the light.
So, her calculations were very well thought out. Shen Zhihua could not say anything when he saw his sister like this, but just sulked by himself.
It was a good thing that he still had Qiao Jie, an understanding concubine, by his side, which helped him to relieve some of his bitterness.
Besides, Chu Shi was sitting in her own house, sulking. What could she do when her good son was passed on to the eldest family? She had only one son, so who could she count on?
She really didn't understand what the old lady was thinking.
She clearly said that she would give them the General's residence, but now she has lost her own son to someone else.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and An Ran Yue said beside her, "Mother, this matter is very complicated, perhaps Grandma is thinking farther than us?"
"It's Far, whichever House he's in, he's her grandson, but if your brother passes on to the Eldest House, what will we do? What will we do if we don't even have someone to take care of us in our old age?"
"Perhaps grandmother wanted my brother to have a good future with Eldest uncle and they could also be given a promotion with the Crown Princess' entry into the palace, otherwise there would no longer be any such thing as giving children to random people." An Ranyue sighed, perhaps it was because she had let her grandmother down that she was like that.
Of course, this matter could not be hidden from Lian Jin Yu. She hugged Ming Chen and looked at her cute son. Her heart was even more upset, how come the family business that should have been inherited by Ming Chen had to go to An Ming Bo?
Why should she do that?
What does that old lady thinking?
An Zhongtao was sipping his wine and drowning in sorrow, he raised his glass and put it down again, recalling all the past, his heart grew colder and colder. Could it be that his mother had lived with his younger brother for so long that she was angry with himself and came up with such an idea?
He remembered that when he was a child, his mother was also quite kind to him, she gave him whatever he needed, and even after he had a younger brother, she was still loving to him. Later, when he grew up, his father passed away and his mother joined his younger brother for a post in the provinces, which also happened to be his hometown. At the time, he didn't think about anything else but he just thought that his mother was worried about his younger brother. But now that they have returned, she has really become estranged from herself. What did he do wrong, was he not filial enough that he disappointed her?
When An Zhongtao's drink became more and more stuffy, the more he thought about it, he couldn't help but frown ......
When An Qing Ran came to the Dong Nuan Court, she learned that such a big thing had happened, and she laughed coldly after hearing it: "Mother, in fact, this matter is quite understandable. Grandmother just wants the General's residence, and if she can't take it from father's hands, let An Mingbo take it, so it's still less work and doesn't show any traces ......"
"I thought of that, too, but obviously your father is the eldest son. But why is your grandmother not willing to let him inherit the General's House? Did your father do something wrong and make her sad?" Lian Jin Yu sighed.
An Qing Ran hugged An Ming Chen: "It's just a pity that my brother is too young to let her find an excuse. That being said, if a person keeps thinking about something, they will always find an excuse, won't they?"
"Yeah."
"What does Father think? Will he agree to this unreasonable request from Grandma?"
"He didn't say yes, he just said he would think about it, but I could see that your father was very unhappy. But him being a son and not being able to say anything bad about Mother, it was hard for him to know himself, I guess."
An Qingran couldn't help but think deeply, and when she remembered what her grandmother had done to her in the past, her heart slowly turned cold. It seems that the purpose of everything is right here. She has caused her mother to almost die twice, and she has also joined Lian Jinrong to kill her own brother as a demon, she just wants to stir up the big house, she wants to get rid of the head mother and the first son, just for the sake of this general house!
It seems that it is true that people die for their money and birds die for their food.
However, they are both sons, so why did they have to give the general's house to the second son?
Did she have a problem with her own father?
It looked very much like that, but it must not be the father's problem, but hers.
In her last life, her own mother was no longer alive, and she had no younger brother, and the general's house was given to whomever she liked. Remembered that in her last life, her grandmother also came and she was not happy with Lian Yiniang either, she picked on her at every turn. At that time, she was still on the side of her aunt and was very unhappy with her grandmother. In her last life, Lian Yiniang was more powerful and had been fighting with her grandmother. In this life, because she kept pointing the finger at herself and her mother, she did not see her role, but it was good, because with the removal of Lian Yiniang, there was no harm in fighting with her grandmother, but I was afraid that when the time came, her father, who was extremely filial, would spoil her good deeds.
An Qingran's hand was tugging at An Mingchen's little hand, and he was playing with her happily with his little mouth open. When An Qingran saw Mingchen's little smiling face, her worries were gone, but she was even more fierce in her heart, this general's residence belonged to little Mingchen, no one should follow him.
Lian Jin Yu looked at her daughter, "How dare she, you are already the Crown Princess, and she still wants to bully us, your grandmother is really confused enough."
"Mother, I am the Crown Princess in the eyes of some people or to be determined, Anyway, one day I did not marry into the palace, is still just An Qing Ran, this market has started rumours again, said I an ugly ghost with a sick ghost, it is a perfect match ......"
"How do you know that?" Lian Jingyu said in surprise.
"Rendong just got back from going out and heard everything, she loves to gather all this news and avenge my wrongs." An Qing Ran smiled.
"Never mind, my child. When I last saw him at your birthday party, the Crown Prince seemed to be in good health...Besides, how much credibility can there be in a rumour? You have received your Biaojiu’s true medical skills, so from now on you can just take good care of him.
If not, you still have your Biaojiu . By the way, speaking of your Biaojiu, he wrote back.” Lian Jingyu said, standing up and handing a letter to An Qinran, "I just received it this morning, but I forgot about it, I really failed as a mother, mainly because I was angry with your grandmother.”
