Even got a gift
"What can we do? Who told us to depend on her now?"
Mrs. Lu sighed deeply and said this with a look of helplessness.
Before Mr. Lu could speak, he added: "Let's be patient for a while, and let me go talk to her and see if we can discuss with her and help raise money for the Hundred Days Banquet.
As for Yao'er's matter, it's better to wait until after the Hundred Days Banquet to see how much gift money there is, and if we raise some money, we might be able to give it to him."
"Huh, I'm trying to find a way to get my money back. This woman is unreliable. We can't let her continue to be arrogant in the Lu family."
Lu Hengfeng said this harshly again.
"What the master said is true, but the money hasn't been returned yet, and we can't easily expose the money to outsiders, so we can only accommodate her first."
Mrs. Lu also nodded in agreement, and then said this.
After saying these words, Mrs. Lu also sighed again, then stood up and carefully closed the door for Mr. Lu, and then walked towards Jiang Yunshang.
At the moment, Jiang Yunshang and Xiaoyun were cutting flowers in the yard.
After not coming back for a few days, all the flowers in her yard were in bloom. They were too bright and too dense, so she decided to cut off some of the excess ones.
"Miss, what can these flowers be used for?" Xiaoyun looked at the bunch of flowers picked up by Jiang Yunshang, and she was worried about what to do with them.
"These flowers are of great use. Some of them can be used for making flowers. Some of them can be used for arranging flowers and making scented tea. In short, these flowers are not wasted."
With a smile on her face, Jiang Yunshang talked about how to deal with it seriously.
"No, we still make scented tea. Miss, what if these flowers are poisonous?"
Hearing Jiang Yunshang say that he would use these flowers to make scented tea, Xiaoyun asked worriedly.
"How could it be poisonous? These are all flowers I selected and planted myself. How could I plant poisonous flowers in my yard?"
After Jiang Yunshang heard Xiaoyun's words, he hit her on the head in a funny way.
"Yes, Yun Shang is good at medicine. How could she plant poisonous things in the yard?"
Just when Jiang Yunshang and Xiaoyun were saying this, Mrs. Lu walked in with her power.
Mrs. Lu came here today, which was different from the past. She actually brought many gifts today.
Looking at this situation, he really wanted to curry favor with Jiang Yunshang.
"Mom, why are you here so free? You must have something to discuss with your daughter-in-law, right?"
At that time, Jiang Yunshang put down the scissors in her hands, took a look, and followed Old Mrs. Lu in. A group of servants were holding things.
Although those things are all packed in boxes, it can be seen that they are not ordinary gifts, and some thought must have been put into them.
"Oh, is Yun Shang angry with mother?"
Old Mrs. Lu did not tell the matter immediately. Instead, she asked with a smile.
"Mother didn't mess with me, why should I be angry with mother?" Jiang Yunshang also asked with a smile.
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she not only laughed but said, "If that's the case, then why doesn't Yun Shang even let Liang come in for a cup of tea?"
"Oh, it's Yun Shang who's being rude, because we just came back from outside and haven't gone into the house to make proper arrangements yet. The house is really messy and I'm afraid I might have neglected my mother."
When Jiang Yunshang talked about the room, he had this to say.
"Well, we are all in our own family and not outsiders, so why do we need to say these polite words? If your house is really messy, it is because my mother did not arrange the servants at home and let them tidy up properly.
After all, Yun Shang is busy outside and has no time to deal with matters at home."
Mrs. Lu and Jiang Yunshang became polite.
However, Jiang Yunshang didn't say much, just reluctantly smiled.
But he still led Mrs. Lu into the house.
"Mom, Yun Shang is not a good daughter-in-law. She is always running around here and there every day. She really doesn't have much control over the affairs at home, but it's really hard on you, mother."
After entering the house, Jiang Yunshang asked Xiaocha to bring a pot of hot water.
First, I made a cup of tea for Mrs. Lu, and then continued talking to her about household matters.
"Yunshang, please stop saying that. If it weren't for you, the Lu family might not be alive now."
Mrs. Lu became polite.
"Mom, don't say that. The Lu family has served as officials for generations and they are all important ministers who have worked hard and achieved great results. Even if the emperor temporarily attacks the Lu family because of the traitor's words, he still belongs to the Lu family after all."
Jiang Yunshang also said this with a smile.
However, although her words were meant as a joke, they also had some sincerity. After all, the emperor never thought of punishing the Lu family.
If Feng Yi hadn't been there, if so many ministers hadn't signed the petition, the Lu family might not even have been imprisoned.
Not to mention the house confiscation and everything that follows.
Therefore, saving the Lu family was not all her fault, but she came forward to plead for mercy, and Feng Yi regarded it as a favor and gave it to her.
After a good chat, Mrs. Lu finally got down to business.
"Yunshang, actually, there is something that Mom wants to tell you when she comes here."
Mrs. Lu hesitated for a long time before finally saying this.
But seeing the servants still standing at the door holding things, she yelled at them angrily: "Hurry up and move the things in and put them down for Yun Shang. What are you doing here?"
"Mom, just tell me if you have something to do. What are you doing with so many things?
It’s not like Yun Shang doesn’t know that the Lu family is in trouble right now, and Yun Shang can’t bear the trouble that my mother has to take so many things.”
Jiang Yunshang didn't look at it either. No matter what it was, as long as Mrs. Lu brought it, she would have to be polite.
"Yunshang, are you slapping my mother in the face? Yun Shang is not in charge of everything in the Lu family. My mother is just using your money to buy some things for you, so why do you need to say this?
Where are the polite words?”
Mrs. Lu also pretended to be polite.
After all, she had been here for a long time, and after saying this, she directly cut to the topic.
"Yunshang, my mother's visit today is actually about Xiaorui's 100-day banquet."
Mrs. Lu mentioned this matter again.
She was talking about Lu Mingyao's daughter, whom they named Lu Rui.
This was the second time that Mrs. Lu asked Jiang Yunshang for money to host a hundred-day banquet for her children.
"OK."
This time Jiang Yunshang didn't hesitate at all. She agreed as soon as Mrs. Lu finished speaking.
She agreed so readily, not to mention Old Mrs. Lu, even Xiao Yun looked particularly surprised next to her.
Because the last time they talked about it, it was Lu Mingyao who interfered, and she refused directly.
