The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Chapter 263: Concubine Jia persuades her grandmother to give Jiang Yaonian a concubine

As Concubine Jia was talking, she carefully observed the expression on Jingying's face... and found that she was indeed anxious! She continued to persuade him, "Although you are of noble birth and beautiful, your age is there after all. Anian is already thirty years old and must want to have a child of his own as soon as possible. If you just wait blindly, what if he suddenly marries someone else after he gets over the pain of losing his wife? Then you will lose more than you gain."

This psychological attack hit Jingying's sore spot accurately!

Her face turned pale instantly... Yes, what if after all her planning, she ended up making wedding dresses for others, wouldn't it be a false alarm?

Thinking of this, she hardened her heart and suddenly knelt down on her knees, then raised her head and looked at Concubine Jia and begged: "Please show me a clear way!"

Concubine Jia looked surprised and asked, "Jingying, what are you doing?"

Jingying looked at her with her big watery eyes and said, "My Lady, as long as you can help me marry Mr. Jiang as soon as possible, I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

Seeing that she had fallen into the trap she had designed, Concubine Jia smiled and said, "That's easy! As long as you can get Old Cheng to hand over the account book in his hand to me, I can let you marry A-Nian as soon as possible..."

Jingying hesitated after hearing this... That account book was the life-saving thing for Cheng Heli! How could he be willing to hand it over so easily?

Concubine Jia asked softly, "Is it okay?"

Jingying lowered her head and thought for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "It's a bit difficult... I'll give it a try!"

Concubine Jia smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news!"

Jingying said, "Your Majesty, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do, so I will go back today! Come visit the old lady another day." After saying goodbye to Concubine Jia, she turned and left.

When Concubine Jia came to the upper room, the maids all greeted her and said, "Concubine Jia is here!"

Someone went in and reported, "Madam, the queen is here."

Madam Jiang frowned and said, "Let her in!"

Concubine Jia walked in gracefully and bowed to Madam Jiang, saying, "Greetings, Grandmother!"

The old lady said calmly: "Get up and sit down!"

Concubine Jia got up and sat down on a chair nearby, smiling and asking, "Grandmother, how is your health lately?"

Madam Jiang sighed and said, "Alas, it's still the same as before."

"Any news about Qing He?"

Madam Jiang shook her head. "Nian'er has already had people search the entire capital, but there is no news at all... Now the search has spread to several other neighboring provinces, but there is still no news."

Concubine Jia said with great concern: "I heard that the emperor has ordered a search of the images in all states, cities, prefectures and counties across the country. There should be news soon..."

Madam Jiang frowned and sighed, "Alas, the country is so big, looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack..."

Concubine Jia nodded, and after a long silence, she said, "Grandmother, I have something to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not... Although Ah Nian is unwilling to give up, we must also prepare for the worst..."

Madam Jiang looked at her, "What do you want to say?"

Concubine Jia said worriedly, "Grandmother, please don't be angry about what I said. Although we all don't want Qinghe to get into trouble, she has been missing for such a long time. We have searched the entire capital and nearby prefectures and counties. I'm afraid she is in great danger..."

Madam Jiang frowned and said, "Nian'er won't listen! Although he is also very anxious, he always believes that Qinghe will come back one day... He often goes to the other courtyard when he has nothing to do, and often takes Qinghe's sister back to Pingle Street to visit... Even if Qinghe really won't come back, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to let her go for a while..."

Concubine Jia hesitated for a moment, and said sincerely: "Grandmother, although Ah Nian and Qing He have a deep love for each other... but he is the patriarch of the four major families after all, and he can't just be aloof and pure. He should still consider the issue of the family heir... Otherwise, if he just indulges in the pain of losing his wife, even Qing He would be uneasy if she knew..."

Madam Jiang stared at her: "What do you mean?"

Concubine Jia took the opportunity to say, "In my opinion, it would be better to let him take two concubines first. This way, the family can be guaranteed to have a long line of descendants. Secondly, even if Qinghe comes back one day, she will still be the young lady of the Jiang family! If she gives birth to a child, her child will be made the heir of the Jiang family... Grandmother, do you think this is feasible?"

Madam Jiang nodded after a moment's hesitation and said, "This is not a bad idea..."

Seeing that her grandmother had softened a little, Concubine Jia continued to strike while the iron was hot, "Of course, Ah Nian won't listen to these words. You have to make the decision and settle the matter! Otherwise, if it depends on his temper, I'm afraid he will still be the same even after a few years... What do you think?"

Madam Jiang seemed to be moved by her words. She nodded and sighed, "Alas, it's a pity that there is no suitable candidate for the time being... Although it's a concubine, she must have a decent appearance and a good temper, otherwise Nian'er will not look down on her! But among those noble ladies, which one is willing to be a concubine with no name and no status?"

Concubine Jia said confidently, "It's not difficult! As long as you spread the word, there will definitely be someone willing! If you trust me, I can help A-Nian look for someone, and then let you take a look. If you think it's okay, we'll let A-Nian take a look. As long as you say you're considering the family heir, then A-Nian will definitely agree!"

Madam Jiang smiled and praised: "In that case, then you can ask around secretly first. If there is a suitable girl, bring her to me for a look..."

Concubine Jia stood up and said respectfully, "Yes!"

……

Hua led the country.

A large and magnificent ship slowly approached the dock, and the servants on the shore had been waiting for a long time.

Mr. Xi, along with his waiters and maids, slowly walked down from the boat, and the servants came forward and moved the luggage and other items onto the carriage one by one.

Mr. Xi said to Qing He, "Miss, since you have nowhere to go now, why don't you stay at my house for a while? When you find a place to stay, it won't be too late to move out then! My wife and my son and daughter-in-law are all reasonable people, they will definitely be willing to let you stay!"

Although Qing He felt that this was inappropriate, she had no better solution at the moment... She was alone and penniless in a foreign country. Apart from relying on the help of kind people, she was afraid that the only way left was to beg for food...

Instead of that, it would be better to follow this kind-hearted old man and visit his home.

Since he was able to ask someone to rescue him from the water, he must not be a very evil person. He is actually safer than those strangers he doesn't know.

So Qing He stepped forward and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you very much for your enthusiastic rescue, old man. Qing He is very grateful!"

The maids and servants gathered around Qing He and got on the carriage, and the group drove towards the city...
