Chapter 14 The correct way to open tasks (14)

[Host, you are too flamboyant, have you forgotten Mrs. Jiang doesn't like this the most? 】

Just as she was about to go back to her room and get some sleep, Ling Qi heard the system muttering.

Close your eyes and ignore it.

The next day, Luo Xiangqian followed Ling Qi's instructions and beat gongs and drums, embarrassing the Zheng family.

Many people in the capital saw Zheng He fighting with Ling Hui in the Shanjian Tower, and now that Shanjian Tower has filed a complaint with the government, it is no surprise to everyone.

What's more, setting fire to the building because of a little sorrow and grievance is really frightening, and they all point and point, and the governor who opened the court to hear the case can't cover it up.

In the end, the three servants took the blame, and the master of the Zheng family was the least involved, even though everyone knew what was going on.

The steward of Ling's mansion has been paying attention to the Shanjian Tower, seeing the result of the Zheng family's move, he suddenly felt that it was a good thing that he was cautious and did not act.

It seems that such a brutal method cannot be used to deal with the Shanjian Building, and it is worth doing a good study.

Ling Qi's method of killing chickens and monkeys really shocked the two families temporarily, and the Shanjian Tower was safe and sound.

It's just that she blamed the crow's mouth of the system for mentioning Mrs. Jiang to her well the past two days, but no, when she went out, she unexpectedly saw that mean old lady.

Seeing the old lady fainting in front of her eyes, Ling Qi couldn't believe it. This is the old lady who pays the most attention to appearance and rules. She is all patched up, and her whole body is skinny. There is not much flesh on her face, like a skull.

The old lady Jiang in the palace wears gold and silver, eats very carefully, and is even more ostentatious when going out. As the mother of the prince, don't mention how much she puts on airs in front of Ling Qi.

Ling Qi is only used to those things, but she never imagined that the old lady had such a down and out life.

Following the old lady was Xiao Lian, the maid of the Jiang family. I heard that she had shared joys and sorrows with the old lady, and gained the trust of the old lady. Later, the old lady wanted to recognize the maid as her daughter.

[Old Mrs. Jiang, it’s a piece of cake from heaven, host, hurry up and get your favorability. When Jiang Yushu comes back and finds out that you have taken care of his mother in every possible way, the favorability will definitely be [-]. 】

Seeing Mrs. Jiang, the system was so excited that it was uncontrollable, as if the task would be completed immediately.

【Host, you are right. After leaving the capital, everything went smoothly for us. You are the best host for making the most unexpected decision and making the most perfect mission. 】

Hearing what the system said, Ling Qi just wanted to make Mrs. Jiang disappear in front of her immediately.

Is it because I can't bear it, or let someone carry the old lady to the backyard wing, and let someone take the porridge she cooked in the morning.

Xiao Lian gobbled it up, drank three big bowls, and ate five pies before she could barely show her full stomach.

Ling Qi was filled with emotions, the more he didn't want to get involved with these people, instead these people kept coming to him.

She remembered that Mrs. Jiang should be in Yingcheng, her hometown at this time. How could she appear in the capital in such a state of embarrassment?

After Jiang Yushu returned to Beijing, he arranged for someone to go to Yingcheng to pick up his old mother. At first, the old lady didn't get used to it and made a lot of jokes.

Due to Jiang Yushu's status, no one dared to come forward and say that the old lady was not a good word, but laughed along with her.

Looking at the old lady who was lying on the bed unconsciously at this time, she couldn't help shaking her head, it's not what it used to be.

At lunch, the old lady finally woke up and learned that it was Ling Qi who saved her, so she got out of bed and knelt down to express her gratitude.

Ling Qi, who had always been kneeling in front of the old lady, was dumbfounded, and the system was even more stunned, but immediately cheered, it had long been aggrieved on Ling Qi's behalf, how could it be unhappy to see this scene today.

Helping the old lady up, Ling Qi asked, "Where did the old lady come from? Why did she pass out in front of my door? Is there anything I can do to help?"

Jiang's family used to be a scholarly family, and the old lady had also studied and seen the world.

Ling Qi's elegant conversation made the old lady feel good, and she didn't want to hide it, so she told her the story very trustingly.

"The old lady's family name is Jiang, and her husband died young. Six years ago, her son came to the capital to look for her husband's old friend, but there has been no news since then. The old woman has been waiting in Yingcheng for a long time, and she also asked someone to come to Beijing to deliver many letters, but nothing happened. So I wanted to check it out.”

After listening, Ling Qi realized that Jiang Yushu had never written a letter to his family in the past six years. Seeing that he was doing well in the army, Ling Qi had tried it before, but Jiang Yushu said that he should contact his family. Pass.

"The old woman turned her property into a seller, so she came all the way to the capital. She didn't think about it. On the second day after entering the city, she was cheated out of her money. She had no choice but to..."

The old lady gritted her teeth when she mentioned liars, wishing she could eat meat and bones.

Ling Qi understood, no money, sleeping on the street.

"The old woman has no intention of blackmailing the young master. When she finds the Ling family, she will thank the young master well."

"The Ling family?"

"The husband of the old woman once made a marriage contract with the Ling family. It may be that the dog has not made any achievements. The marriage has not been done yet, but the Ling family..."

Ling Qi interrupted with a smile, "Is it Ling Rui, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment?"

The old lady nodded, "Yes, yes, do you know where Ling's residence is, or you can ask someone to deliver a letter."

Seeing that Ling Qi was unmoved, she hurriedly took out an emerald green bracelet and handed it over, "The old woman can mortgage the bracelet to the young master first, and then take the money to redeem it from the young master after the matter is completed."

"Old madam, no, this bracelet is..." The maid Xiao Lian immediately stepped forward to stop it when she saw the bracelet.

The old lady scolded, "Shut up."

Of course Ling Qi knew what this bracelet represented.

The Jiang family passed it down from generation to generation and gave it to the eldest daughter-in-law of each generation.

When Zheng Yuan married Jiang Yushu, this bracelet was given to Zheng Yuan.

But when Ling Qi was marrying Jiang Yushu dignifiedly, the old lady found all kinds of excuses and refused to take out the bracelet, no matter how Ling Qi tried to please her.

Holding the bracelet, Ling Qi suddenly felt like laughing, something she had been asking for for several lifetimes, so it was easily handed over to her.

Similarly, the system was filled with emotion, this time, it couldn't say anything.

They have been looking forward to it for so long that they don't have any thoughts.

Ling Qi pushed the bracelet to the old lady, and asked someone to bring it to the old lady to eat, "Eat first, if the old lady has any requirements, you can tell my staff, and they will help you."

It is said that when asking for help, you must have the attitude of asking for help. The bracelet returned by the old lady said, "But this..."

"Don't worry, the old lady can live here these days, and I can afford three meals a day."

Ling Qi didn't want to stay longer, so she got up and left.

Standing in the backyard, looking at the blue sky, she couldn't help laughing, but there were sobs of relief in her laughter.

【Host……】

"I'm fine." After settling down, Ling Qi returned to normal.

【I just want to say that your decision to leave Mrs. Jiang behind is too good. I thought you would hold grudges, but I didn't expect you to let go of the past...】

The system with only tasks in her mind was hopeless, so she knew that she shouldn't expect the system to say anything heartwarming.

Ling Qi didn't keep Mrs. Jiang because of Jiang Yushu, but suddenly felt that the scene where their mother and son met must be very interesting.

She should ask Luo Xiangqian when the army will arrive in the capital.
