After being widowed and reborn, the matriarch of a noble family remarried a powerful minister.

In the winter of the 23rd year of Tianjian, the people of Shengjing had fun provided by Pingyang Houfu.

"Have you heard?"

"What's the matter?"

"Mrs. Pingyang Hou!"

"Oh, are you talking about her son's escape? That has been rumored for a long time."

The man said anxiously: "No, no, something new happened in their family."

It turns out that the story is about the second lady of the Hou family who wanted to murder the old lady in order to compete for the title.

Some people were suspicious, "Why is this so? Pingyang Marquis's uncle is dead. Whatever happens next, it will be the second uncle's turn. Isn't this a matter of time?"

"Hum, parents always have some biases that they can't understand. I heard that this old lady has always favored the third master. Even the third master escaped from Jingnan privately, and the old lady tried her best to protect him. The title of this prince's mansion, really Not allowed."

Everyone understood and felt a little sad. The old lady was famous for treating her daughter-in-law harshly, and it was not surprising that she was so partial.

"No matter what, filial piety comes first, and it's not a good idea for the second lady to do anything to her own mother-in-law."

"Yes, yes, I heard that Mr. Gu was beaten almost to death earlier, and the owner of Deji Hall went to help him and even cursed him."

"Oh, you can't save this kind of person!"

Another person familiar with the matter said that the owner was an excellent person, and he could still take good care of the old lady despite being treated like this before.

"Old lady? Wasn't she killed?"

"Not dead, not dead!" The man waved his hand, "With the presence of Holy Xie, she can be regarded as saving her life. Even though she heard that she looked bad, she was speechless."

"Oh, I'm getting older, maybe I'm frightened."

At this time, Ke Yiqing's residence in Yudai Lane welcomed a new resident.

The old woman breathed heavily, and the saliva flowed down her chin to her shoulders and neck, and was wiped away by a skinny hand holding a handkerchief.

Unexpectedly, this friction made the old woman tremble like chaff, and the fear in her eyes became more and more intense. She seemed to want to say something, but she could only make a hehe sound.

Aunt Xue smiled and fed her a spoonful of rice porridge, "Lanjuan, I've been cooking this rice porridge for a long time. Is it right for you?"

The old woman named Lan Juan is Mrs. Pingyang Hou.

Her real name was Tian Lanjuan, and she was once the daughter of a tenant farmer. After saving the Marquis of Pingyang, she became his wife with kindness and threats. After so many years of prosperity, she was naturally very angry when someone suddenly called out her former name.

"Hehe, hehe...hehehe uh uh uh..."

Another large amount of saliva flowed out. Tian Lanjuan wanted to stand up, but her body didn't obey her orders at all.

Aunt Xue was not annoyed at all and wiped away the offending saliva again with good temper.

"Okay, okay, I know you changed your name."

As she spoke, she hummed and fed another spoonful of rice porridge. Tian Lanjuan became even more frightened, and a fishy smell came out of her clothes in a moment.

"Is Aunt Xue okay?"

"The old lady has already suffered a stroke. Can she still make splashes?"

Zi Xing frowned, "I'm not worried about this, but I think she is scary at this time."

Ke Yiqing twitched the corner of his mouth, scary?
A great revenge has been avenged, so what if the appearance is hideous?

"Mr. Lady teaches us not to be too attached to hatred."

"That's because the hatred isn't deep enough."

"What grudge does Aunt Xue have against her?"

"The old lady stole her husband, killed her daughter, and almost forced her to death. Should this revenge be avenged?"

"The newspaper."

She touched the little girl's hair and said, "What would you do if your sister's teeth were betrayed and she stood in front of you?"

Zi Xing's eyes turned red, "I will kill him."

After saying this, she never mentioned what she had said before, and continued to practice martial arts in silence.

A person stood quietly behind Ke Yiqing, and the person said quietly: "I didn't expect you to say such a thing."

"What?"

Looking at the frail beauty in front of him, he always felt that he was becoming more and more unable to understand her.

Could it be that the woman who cried and begged him to let the second master go was fake?Seeing that the person was still silent, she went into the room to take off her makeup. Her face was yellow and her lips were white. Her previous ruthless beauty was gone and she became a sickly beauty.

Yan Ming sighed, he was really in trouble.

"What are you sighing about again?"

"Why have you changed so much?"

Ke Yiqing chuckled, "Changed? Where have I changed?"

"In the past, you would not have been so vicious, nor would you have used such a frame-up strategy."

He was talking about secretly informing the second wife that Gu Zhennan was dead.

I already knew that this man hated the old lady, and he was even more stupid. He didn't know what to say when he got anxious, plus that delicious and prickly fish soup.

An old man who had been in poor health for a long time suddenly ate a lot of big fish and meat, and suddenly learned the news of the death of his beloved son, plus the fish bone stuck in his throat.

It's the old lady's good luck that she didn't die.

It can be said that Ke Yiqing calculated every step accurately, and he was frightened by such a plan.

She understood very well what he was thinking, so she sneered: "Master Yan, I was dead long ago. You also have a share in killing her."

Yan Ming looked at the retreating figure, and for some reason he felt so sad that he couldn't help but burst into tears.

"What a love-struck man. I see he is still looking at you."

"Let him look around, it doesn't matter."

Xie Li put down his work and concentrated on preparing the medicinal powder for her. "This stuff can easily make dogs go crazy. You have to store it carefully on weekdays."

"I know it, but I hope it won't come in handy."

"what?"

She said the next words too softly, and Xie Li didn't understand. Fortunately, the other party's attention was not focused on it.

"According to rumors, you are really a kind person. You have taken care of Gu Zhennan's wife and his old mother. Others must have thought that you have a deep love for him."

Because of this, more and more people come here wanting free clinics on weekdays.

Ke Yiqing was unwilling to give up the good reputation he had built for a long time, but he also did not want to be a source of resentment. The promised free clinic deadline had already passed.

But the world is still not easy. If the person who comes to see a doctor really doesn't have much money at home, she will ask someone to work for the money. If the person is lazy and wants to take advantage, she will have the servant tie him up and send him to the government.

"It's a good thing."

"You just have too much money."

"It's also great to spend some money to pick out some honest people."

"Is our shop short of manpower?"

She smiled mysteriously, "There is no shortage at the moment, but the future is uncertain."

This famine is about to be over, and she has saved her capital and reputation. If she wants to be long-term, she cannot rely solely on grain stores.

Xie Li walked out with her empty-handed, "Why, you have some new ideas?"

"I want to open a new shop, but I don't know what to sell or how to make more money. I've been very distressed recently."

"Come on, it turns out this is business, I can't help you with this matter." She waved her hands and left as if running away.

Ke Yiqing laughed and wanted to discuss it with Li Wei.

As for Yan Ming whom she had forgotten, what?Has he been here?

The two discussed it in detail, but couldn't figure it out, so they simply dropped it for now.

"If nothing else, if Madam wants to cultivate confidants, perhaps some children from outside the city can take over."

She raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm only thirteen or fourteen years old, how can I do it?"

Li Weiyan, a poor child, would have been in charge of the family for a long time. If he had not met her, he might have been working at home long ago.

"At this time, Shengjing is at peace, and there is no such shortage of food. Taking over a batch of good performers will give people hope, and secondly, they can be evaluated early. If they are satisfied, Madam will not worry about the shortage of people when she opens a new shop. .”

"You are thoughtful."

"But there is one thing I don't know whether to talk about or not."

"What's the matter?" (End of chapter)
