Chapter 457 Ace in the Hole
"Is Hong Shan pregnant?" Jiang Tianqi had a showdown with his nephew to deal with the situation after the pillar of the family fell. Madame Zhuang, who was waiting for her son in the fourth branch, had a pale face, "Are you sure?"
"Because she hasn't been pregnant for a long time, the doctor doesn't dare to confirm it, but he also says that she may well be pregnant." The servant sent by Madame Wen said cautiously, "Madame let me come here to ask you... What if Hong Shan is really pregnant?"
Qiu Yelan, who was also waiting for her husband, had a twitch at the corner of her mouth, thinking that fortunately Chu Yitong had just been sent back to the yard by Madame Zhuang. Otherwise, she would be so annoyed.
But Madame Zhuang was just as annoyed as her eldest daughter-in-law. After rubbing her forehead for a long while, she said lukewarmly, "What about Hong Shan herself? Would she like to be with Dan'er or would she like to marry another pers

And for the return of the eldest uncle’s family, my eldest grand uncle gets a higher spirit and becomes healthier.""I dreamed that he said goodbye to me." Marquess Qin said weakly.Jiang Yashuang kept calm, "You must worry too much about my eldest grand uncle so that you dreamed about him at night. It can't be real.""Just go into mourning!"

Don't send children of grandsons to temporize him. Your generations go in condolence. Ma

But no matter how empty the national treasury was, it was not possible to keep highborn ladies from marriage. It was basically impossible to save on these expenses. It was no wonder that Marquess Qin treated Xue Chang so favourably. Faced with the amount of money the court needed to spend, if there hadn’t been a prime minister who was good at filling the national treasury without harassing the people, he would have exploited their people!Qiu Yelan sighed for a while about the pressure on the national treasury. And then she suddenly thought of Chu Chunxiao, “Chunxiao is about the same age as Yongfu. She is 20 years old this year. Even though Yongfu doesn’t marry, she has gotten engaged. It has been three or five years now, hasn’t it? They can’t continue to force her to marry the Duke of Puyang, can they?”Jiang Yashuang was reminded of this. He pondered for a moment and said, “All right, you should go to the palace in a couple of days and put the fee

At the birthday banquet, Madame Lian sought an opportunity to ask quietly, “I heard that Princess Royal Lexin is going to get married in the same month of Emperor’s birthday, right?”“Yes.” Qiu Yelan knew what she meant, “After the marriage of Princess Royal, it was the turn of Prince of Wei.”Madame Lian was relieved.

He Shuijin went ahead and did it. Two days later, there was news that she got so mad that she imposed heavy punishment on a dozen stewards. Of course, the reason was that they made major mistakes that had resulted in huge losses.“It is no exaggeration to say that our family is now rolling in money every day. You and the stewards have earned so much for the family over the years, haven’t you? But we all make mistakes. You can punish them for their occasional mistakes. Why be so angry?” When Madame Tao found out about this, she called He Shuijin over and advised her, “Don’t make them feel chilled in their hearts. It is okay to make up for the mistakes in other ways. You need to take care of such a big family. Even though you are young, it’s no good for your health if you always get angry!”“My grandmother, the thing you don’t know is that I have got a plan to make a good deal of money. They didn’t get things wrong before while at this point, they made

Once he checked Qiu Yelan’s pulse, he smiled happily and congratulated her, “Young madame, you are pregnant!”After all, Qiu Yelan had given birth to Jiang Jinglang. She was kind of an experienced woman. She had already felt something when she vomited. But only when the doctor had confirmed it, she felt at ease. At this moment, her mouth curled into a smile, “Reward!”Not only was the doctor rewarded, but everyone in this yard received an extra month’s earning. It was as joyful as the beginning of a new year.

When Jiang Yadan learned his brother and sister-in-law’s concerns, he said dismissively, “The thing between them and Qiu Jinglan? I have told my fourth brother and fifth brother long ago!”“Do our fourth brother and fifth brother still want to take them as mistresses?” Qiu Yelan was surprised.“What does it matter? They are courtesans from the brothel. Who expects them to be chaste?” Jiang Yadan snickered, “As my fourth brother and fifth brother like their talents and appearances, they intend to take them as mistresses. Back then they were well-known in the court and had many friends of high status. And among their guests, there were no common people. But everything changed. Now they are being no longer pretty. If they do not find a good husband, they would probably be miserable in the future. They may not have hostility towards you, my nineteenth sister-in-law.”Qiu Yelan said, “I’m not afraid that they have any animosity towards me...”
