Chapter 284 Destroyed
Princess Qinglan's dowry is not just about calligraphy and paintings, but there are many things. The third wife can make a profit by shaking it out, but there is no airtight wall in the world. If the wind leaks out, the second wife will never give her good fruit.
But she followed the example of the second wife and replaced the post, and the profit she made would be greater or less than the power to get the kitchen management.
The princess handed over the housekeeper's power when she was pregnant. When the child was born, the housekeeper would definitely be taken back.
There is a lot of oil in the kitchen, but if the princess investigates it, the third wife will not only lose her reputation, but will also have to spit out what she eats.
But if you follow the second wife, you won’t have so many worries. If you fail, you will only be the same as the second wife. If you do things beautifully, maybe the third wife can be memorized by the second wife.
Thinking of this, a hint of contempt flashed in Jiang Wan's eyes.
Usually, I think about my identity more important than anything else. My favorite thing is face, but I do shameless things. In the end, the wronged people will turn things into small things for the sake of the royal family's face.
It is because of this partiality and indulgence that they become more and more aggressive and use any means!
The maid held the porcelain bottle, and saw that Jiang Wan's face suddenly had a little anger, and she was a little frightened. She called out, "Crown Princess?"
She should have done nothing wrong to make the princess unhappy?
Could it be that she was walking in the wrong way?
Jiang Wan calmed her anger on her face and stepped into the house.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw the princess sitting there and holding back his anger. Mother Li also had a faint look of anger on her face.
Obviously, the second wife has already mentioned changing the painting.
Jiang Wan walked over and said with a smile, "What are the mother and second aunt talking about?"
Seeing Jiang Wan, the princess's face only eased a little, but her anger was still there, "Your second aunt is going to change the painting with her mother."
I couldn't steal it, and I thought about changing it. I had already robbed the prince of the Duke of Yu. Now I would never give up even if I got her daughter's dowry, right?!
But she didn't agree if she exchanged the paintings and tried to persuade her with kind words.
The second wife begged, "I know my sister-in-law is reluctant to leave, but it is related to my brother's future. I also ask my sister-in-law to bear the pain of giving up. In the future, I will definitely find a way to buy this painting back and return it to the original owner."
The princess refused, "That painting was given to me by Chang'en Marquis's mansion. It was left to Qinglan as a thought. If you want other paintings, that painting would not work."
The second wife said she only wanted that painting.
Jiang Wan sat there and listened for a while, looking at the princess and said, "Mother, I think the second aunt really wants to change the painting with you, you should agree."
The princess was stunned when she heard this.
Even Li's mother looked at Jiang Wan, unable to believe that she was actually helping the second wife.
Even the second wife thought she had heard it awkwardly.
The princess looked at Jiang Wan, and saw that Jiang Wan's eyes were as clear as a spring. From the corner of her eyes, she glanced at the two paintings brought by the second wife and shook her head. The princess couldn't understand the deep meaning in Jiang Wan's eyes, but Jiang Wan helped her and Princess Qinglan, and Jiang Wan helped persuade her that the princess would never give her such face.
The princess told the maid, "Go and take that painting."
When the second wife heard this, she said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Although I know that the painting is fake.
But as long as she pierces the window paper, the princess will naturally find a way to find a way to get it back, and she will naturally get the original work.
The second wife asked the maid to put down the two paintings, and the princess said, "There is no need for these two paintings."
The princess said no, but the second wife was right.
Since she has been sincere in changing the paintings, she has all the original works.
She didn't get the box of paintings, and was even put on one, almost causing trouble for her brother. In the end, she had to put two paintings inside, which made her feel distressed.
The second wife sat there waiting, and soon Princess Qinglan came in.
She was holding a painting in her hand and dripping water down.
Princess Qinglan covered her face with a veil, but her eyes were a little evasive and guilty, "Mother, I'm in trouble..."
She handed the painting forward.
When the princess saw it, she said, "What's wrong with this?"
Princess Qinglan lowered her head and said, "I just rushed to find my mother's wife, but she ran a little anxiously and accidentally hit the maid."
"The maid was holding this painting in her hand and was knocked away by me and fell into the wooden barrel where the maid was watering..."
Jiang Wan was smiling.
Qinglan's acting skills are no worse than her elder brother.
The princess felt so distressed, "Why are you so reckless? What should I do?"
The second wife's face turned green.
She didn't believe that there was such a coincidence, and she clearly refused to give the painting to her, so she was directly ruined!
But she was so angry that this painting belonged to the princess and was also prepared to serve as a dowry for Princess Qinglan. Princess Qinglan "accidentally" destroyed it. Can she say anything?
Even if you are angry, you have to endure it.
What's more, this is not an authentic work, it's just a fake.
Princess Qinglan unfolded the painting, and the painting was ruined, but it could still be seen that it was the painting she wanted.
The princess was reluctant to let go, so she scolded Princess Qinglan again. Princess Qinglan pouted and said unhappy, "Daughter didn't mean it. I'll drive my daughter to Chang'en's mansion to kowtow to apologize to my grandfather. My grandfather will definitely not be willing to blame me."
Jiang Wan said, "Mother, Qinglan didn't mean it. You are still pregnant, don't get angry."
Princess Qinglan quickly accepted her unhappiness and admitted her mistake obediently.
What can the second wife do? The paintings are ruined, and there is no need for her to leave.
After the second wife left, the princess glared at Princess Qinglan, "Who did you follow your temperament? That was the painting left by your grandfather, and you were cruelly ruined."
At this time, there is no maid in the yard who will water the flowers.
She was willing to use water to water such a precious painting.
Princess Qinglan held Jiang Wan's arm and said playfully, "I'll follow my sister-in-law."
The princess glared at Princess Qinglan again, "Your sister-in-law won't do this."
Jiang Wan smiled and said, "Mother, don't feel sorry for me, this painting is also fake."
The princess was stunned.
Princess Qinglan opened her eyes widened.
Why is this painting fake?
The eldest sister-in-law asked the maid to tell her that the painting had been destroyed. Although she couldn't bear to bear it, she would have to take advantage of the second wife, so she cruelly threw it into the bucket.
She felt so distressed, but it turned out to be a fake painting?
How is this possible?
Didn’t the elder brother help her exchange the original works?
Jiang Wan nodded and said, "Not only this one, that box is fake. Your elder brother wants her to steal it again, but in the end the disaster becomes bigger and bigger, and he has to take the initiative to admit his mistake."
The plan was perfect.
But they didn't expect that it would rain heavily when Qi Xuan'er got married. They all thought that the box of fakes had been destroyed in the heavy rain.
Unexpectedly, the second wife was not as brave as they thought. She did not dare to openly carry the stolen paintings into the Duke of Yu's Mansion and bribe them to Master Zhu.
She couldn't bear it for a moment and told the truth to Princess Qinglan, but it turned out that something went wrong. The princess carried the painting into Tianxiang Courtyard.
The second wife couldn't steal, so she could only exchange it.
Now that the painting is ruined in front of her, she should give up.
The princess breathed a sigh of relief, and Li's mother smiled, "I felt something was wrong when the princess looked at the painting yesterday, it seemed like a fake, but when she thought that the prince protected her, the painting could not be fake, so she put it back in the box. Unexpectedly, it was really fake."
Thinking of her advising the princess not to think too much last night, Li's mother felt that the second wife was fooled and she was not unfair at all.
She and the princess were both deceived, let alone her.
The princess said strangely, "Where is that authentic work?"
"My husband hid them in the father's secret room," Jiang Wan said.
That place should be as safe as possible.
She beat the second wife to death, but she never thought that the original work was in the hands of the prince.
Even if she knows, she doesn't dare to steal, and she can't even steal it.
