Chapter 82 Fooling Each Other
"You granddaughter, you are just talking nonsense, what do you say is true?"
After Ke recovered, he held the box tightly in his hand. He couldn't let go of the thing he had just obtained.
"So you raised a daughter like this, and I was counting on her to give birth to a son for my son," the old lady felt greatly insulted, "You want to enter the Xue family with this kind of experience, bah!"
The old lady stared at the box in Ke's hand, thinking that the box containing all the land deeds had just been given to Ke for nothing, and she felt a little dazed.
He signaled to Madam Xu and Madam Tong, and the two of them went together to take the box back from Mrs. Ke.
Mrs. Ke turned around to protect him and shouted, "Madam, you are old and useless, right? Forgot that this deed was used as hush money to buy off the Finance Department!"
Although Mrs. Ke was not tall, she had a strong frame and was agile. She turned around and squeezed out from under the armpits of the two maids, jumping all over the room. Yangyang and others watched her performance as if they were watching a monkey show.
But the two maids were not to be trifled with, and they called a few maids to join them in blocking the way.
Ke originally brought some people with him, but the old lady was very concerned and had already arranged that group of people in a remote courtyard, where they were treated to good food and drink. It was likely that they would not be able to come to pick him up now.
Seeing that this group of people were chasing her, Ke had no choice but to hide and shout, "Old Madam, if it is found out that you bribed the people from the Finance Department, your son's official position will be lost. Compared with this land deed, what is it worth?"
Madam Xu seized the moment when Mrs. Ke turned around and grabbed her hair, pulling it into a mess like a chicken coop. Mrs. Ke wanted to scream, but Madam Tong and others could not tolerate her being so arrogant, so they held her down and took the box away from her.
When Nanny Tong handed the box back to the old lady as it was, the old lady held it in her arms as if it were a treasure and burst into tears.
The disheveled Ke, who was being held backhanded, still refused to give in, "You old thing, aren't you afraid that your son's official position will be lost?" Now there was a bloody mark on her face, how could she endure this.
"Don't exaggerate!" The old lady wiped her tears and raised her head.
"My son is the left prime minister, not a small official like your husband. If he hadn't felt guilty about your daughter's disappearance in my Xue Mansion, he would have taken out this land deed as compensation and asked Yang to apologize."
The old lady lowered her head again, opened the box, and carefully sorted out the deeds inside, counting them one by one.
Although all those shops fell into the hands of Mr. Xue, fortunately, she still had some farms and villas in her hands over the years, and she would never touch them unless it was absolutely necessary.
There were people from Jinglinsi there just now, and they were so frightened by Ke's commotion that they were a little confused. Now that they think about it, why would they take these things out?
The old lady closed the lid and said, "Now I understand that you Jiang family are all a bunch of snakes and scorpions, and you are trying to trick my son!"
"Hmph! The old lady is so powerful that she doesn't even care about her own son's career! My daughter's matter is not over yet. Don't think you can get away with it with just a few words from your granddaughter!" Ke was being held down and kept resisting, refusing to admit defeat.
Mrs. Ke cursed and swore, her spit almost spraying on Yangyang's face, but the old lady didn't hear a word she said, as if the only thing in her eyes and heart was her box of land deeds.
It was just the last sentence that seemed to wake her up.
"Girl Yang, our Xue family is generous. Jiang Jiarou did such a shameful thing, but fortunately she hasn't married yet. Since you lost her, go find her and give her to your Aunt Ke."
As the old lady spoke, she tried to distance herself from the whole matter. Now that Yangyang had taken out the purse so that she could refute Mrs. Ke's claims, it was not enough, and she even blamed Yangyang.
Mrs. Ke, who was standing by, gnashed her teeth and said, "Bah! Just wait and see! No matter how high your son's official position is, he won't be able to hold it for long, with your character!"
Ke's words were full of ulterior motives, as if the fact that she had bribed the Finance Department with the old lady in her hand was already a done deal. But the old lady didn't care, so Ke became even more rampant, "Rou'er's matter is not over yet, you have to think carefully about bribing the Finance Department!"
The old lady was tired of hearing this, "Your husband promised to help me do it, but now he is strangling me. Aren't you afraid that your Lord Jiang will be exposed in court?"
"Humph! You can't get any advantage, sister, you should save your energy! I was so confused just now that I was almost fooled by you!"
It seems that now the old lady is going to die together with her, and she is sure that Mrs. Ke would not dare to do that!
But Zhenzhen is really a bit stupid. Ke smiled and shook his head.
"Sister, do you have any evidence to prove that it was my husband who helped you? I only know that the old lady sent Wang Er to deliver the gold, and then Wang Er took my husband's money and sent it to the Finance Department himself! The gold never passed through our Jiang family's hands during the whole process!"
Mrs. Ke laughed so hard that it seemed to make the old lady laugh enough. The old lady found it irritating.
"Nonsense, don't we have a letter of recommendation written by your husband? How can your Jiang family get away with this?"
Ke taunted, "Letter? Does the old lady have that letter?"
The old lady was startled at once, and then she understood that Ke had planned it all out long ago. He used her daughter's disappearance as a clue to come and ask for the person, and also bribed her to make the old lady surrender.
Who would have thought that Yangyang had missed a link, allowing the old lady to gain the upper hand and actually want to deny everything.
But the bribery was a premeditated plot. If you don't look into it carefully, you might think it was just Ke's random bluffing.
Now that Ke has revealed everything, I finally understand that this was a dead end.
The old lady had been in deep trouble for a long time without knowing it, and she thought she could hide it by relying on her son's identity.
Little did he know that he might actually ruin the future of the Left Prime Minister because of this.
"You, your Jiang family are bullying a woman like me. Fine! Wait until my son comes back..."
Before he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes again.
"Old lady!"
"Old lady!"
It was not known whether she was really fainted this time or just pretending. A group of people surrounded the old lady and helped her back to the yard.
Since Ke didn't get any benefit this time, he might even intensify his attack.
Just as she was leaving the front yard, Yangyang called out, "Aunt Ke, wait a minute!"
"What's the matter? I'll stop today and come again tomorrow!" Mrs. Ke stroked her hair and said with her head held high.
"Aunt Ke will come tomorrow? My grandmother was frightened today and will be lying in a coma tomorrow. Besides, my father will be in the imperial city these days and will not come out. I am sure that she will not get any benefits!" Yangyang smiled and wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
Ke glanced at Yangyang and said, "Then I will come here every day. Don't try to fool me!"
Yangyang said, "Aunt Ke misunderstood. Yangyang didn't want to fool you. Yangyang wanted to make a deal with you!"
