Chapter 96 There Is Something Strange Indeed
It's too late to say anything now.
Especially when the nun sent by the Luo family to inquire about the news came back and said that the palace had been sealed off and the news from the palace could not reach the outside world. After some officials and their family members quietly leaked some news from the palace, the Jiang family suddenly fell into a cloud of sadness.
The news about the abolition is true.
The emperor was furious. Not only did he reprimand the queen and her daughter, but he also did not punish Yan Li for slapping her legitimate princess. If there are still people who can't understand this obvious difference in treatment, they are really stupid.
That night, Luo Shi walked into Liuliyuan with snacks freshly baked from the kitchen and carefully cooked bird's nests, and humbly apologized to Yan Li. His tone no longer contained the forbearance and resentment of the past, but actually laughed and said good things.
"Li Yatou." Luo Shi put the exquisite and delicious food on the table with a fond smile on his face, "These are the refreshments I asked the kitchen to make specially for you. They are sweet and soft, and they melt in your mouth. You You should like it.”
Yan Li sat by the window, looking at the tea on the table expressionlessly, and smiled lightly: "I'm not used to my aunt being so enthusiastic."
"It was all my aunt's fault in the past, really." Luo Shi took the tea cup himself and poured her a cup of tea. "My aunt is sincerely apologizing to you this time. Can you not be as knowledgeable as my aunt?"
Yan Li didn't say anything, just looked at her quietly, his eyebrows and eyes were indifferent.
"Your mother is the daughter of the Jiang family. This cannot be changed. Her broken bones are still connected to her tendons." Luo Shi admitted his mistake sincerely, "No matter what she did back then, in the end, it was the matter of the older generation. With you It’s irrelevant, we shouldn’t blame you harshly about your mother.”
After a pause, "It's also our fault as elders. We shouldn't let the younger generation know these disgraceful things. What's more, Jiang Yi did something wrong. Her father and mother also didn't educate her well. She can't be blamed entirely, let alone Put your anger on your head."
Yan Li took the tea cup and took a sip of tea, listening quietly without saying a word.
"As elders, your uncle and I have not done a good job. We have ignored your needs all these years, and I really feel sorry for you." Luo Shi's face turned red, with an embarrassed and regretful expression. "No matter how many mistakes we made in the past, it was all our faults." It's our mistake. We will definitely change our ways from now on and treat you as our own daughter. Do you think you can forgive us?"
Yan Li put down the tea cup and said in a calm tone: "I don't forgive you. What's the difference?"
Of course there is a difference.
Luo Shi smiled awkwardly: "The emperor loves you. When he calms down in a few days, see if you can go to the emperor and say something nice for the empress. Just say that the princess insulted your mother was an unintentional mistake, and you no longer talk to her. Care about——"
"Why don't I care about her?" Yan Li raised her eyebrows and asked her calmly, "Does my aunt think I am a Bodhisattva? When others hit me and scold me, I not only greet them with a smile, but also show my other side. Go over and call her?”
Luo Shi froze: "I, that's not what I meant..."
"My aunt now knows that she is in pain and senses the crisis, so she humbly asked me to apologize and say good things. She was just worried about Jiang Jingyue's future fate, worried that the prince would be implicated and the Jiang family would lose power, so she asked me to be a generous saint and don't follow her. The queen and the princess have the same understanding."
Yan Li smiled faintly and spoke unhurriedly to get through her thoughts, "But when the princess insulted me and my mother, my aunt stood aside and watched the show without any intention of stopping it. Since you like to watch the show so much , just keep reading, why do you want to apologize and dissuade me? "
Luo Shi's face turned red: "Li Yatou."
"Everyone should be responsible for their own actions. A person as old as my aunt should have lived a transparent life." Yan Li said lightly, "At least he should be more transparent than a little girl like me. I understand the truth, but my aunt doesn't understand it at all. I don’t understand, isn’t this your own failure?”
"I……"
"Auntie never sheds tears until she sees the coffin." Yan Li turned to look out the window, her voice as cold as snow, "Time and again before, you always thought that I was weak and could be bullied, and thought without any scruples that I had no one to protect me. It’s not enough for Jiang Jingyue to win the position of Crown Princess. They all come to show off their power in front of me, or incite and ruin my reputation in front of others... If I really lose my reputation, will your Jiang family be able to prosper and enjoy a hundred years of glory? Wealth?"
Luo Shi was embarrassed and annoyed by what she said, her cheeks were getting hot, but she was speechless.
After holding it in for a long time, she pinched the handkerchief and laughed: "I was blind in the past and was blinded by lard. I promise not to do it again in the future. Look, Li girl..."
"I believe that my aunt is really sincere in apologizing at this time." Yan Li said calmly, "I am also willing to accept your apology, but that's it."
Luo Shi's expression froze: "If the Jiang family can survive this difficulty, the queen and the prince will definitely remember your kindness in the future..."
"They don't need to remember how good I am." Yan Li interrupted her, "I don't want to be associated with them."
Luo Shi gritted his teeth, the smile on his face could hardly be maintained, and he really didn't know how to continue persuading.
Yan Li looks soft and weak, but for some reason recently, she is like a hard-to-gnaw bone, hard, without the gentleness and gentleness of her daughter's family at all, like a smelly and hard stone.
She was so groveling, but she didn't buy it at all. It was really...
Yan Li ignored her.
Luo Shi was furious, but she didn't dare to show her dissatisfaction on her face. Who said that the current situation was better than others? Even if Yan Li didn't want to forgive, she could never continue to offend her.
Otherwise, the Ninth Prince will be in trouble.
Luo stood still for a moment, and seeing Yan Li was unmoved, she could only say awkwardly: "Then you should have a good rest first. What do you want to eat tomorrow? Let Nanny An tell me, and I'll have someone bring it to you."
After saying this, she turned around and walked away, looking back every few steps.
"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?" Nanny An frowned, looking down on Luo's behavior, "You can bend and stretch, but you don't have to bend like this."
"In the past, I always heard people say that marrying a virtuous wife will bring prosperity to three generations, and marrying a bad wife will bring disaster to three generations. At that time, I didn't agree with it. I felt that the prosperity of the family depends on the ability of the man, and only incompetent men will pin the prosperity of the family on women." Yan Li took a sip of tea, and his voice became more leisurely, "But now I understand that the words left by our ancestors are all reasonable."
In a large family, the mistress is responsible for the affairs of the house, the mistress is responsible for raising children and grandchildren, and the mistress is responsible for dealing with people.
Marrying a good wife can make a man worry-free and focus on his career, make the family harmonious and united, and educate his children and grandchildren to succeed and revitalize the family.
A good wife is indeed indispensable.
If you want to destroy a family, you only need to marry a selfish and short-sighted wife to do it easily.
