Jiang Lili stood up, walked to her father, and gently held his hand: "Father, this world is complicated. But you must weigh the pros and cons and make the most appropriate decision. Aunt Ye's matter is certainly sympathetic, but if it breaks the rules of the mansion, then the whole mansion will fall into chaos."
Jiang Jilian looked into his daughter's eyes, which were bright and full of wisdom and understanding. He suddenly realized that his daughter had grown up and was no longer the little girl who needed his protection.
"Li Li, you are right. I must maintain order in the mansion and cannot let anyone destroy it. But I cannot ignore Ye Wanxue's experience. I will find a suitable opportunity to give her justice." Jiang Jilian said in a firm tone, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
Jiang Lili smiled slightly, her father had already made a decision. She patted her father's hand gently: "Father, I believe you will make the most correct choice. Now, let me go see Aunt Ye."
Jiang Jilian nodded, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. He watched his daughter leave the room, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
Jiang Lili came to Ye Wanxue's room and saw her face was full of tears and there were obvious slap marks on her face. She couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, but she remained calm.
"Aunt Ye, you have suffered." Jiang Lili said softly.
When Ye Wanxue saw Jiang Lili, a trace of guilt flashed in her eyes. She knew that her behavior had disappointed this young lady. She lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Jiang Lili.
Jiang Lili sat on the bedside and gently held Ye Wanxue's hand: "Aunt, I know you feel wronged, but you must understand that the rules of the mansion cannot be broken. If you really want to gain your father's approval, you should abide by the rules of the mansion instead of interfering in other people's affairs."
Ye Wanxue raised her head, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes: "Miss, I know I was wrong. I am willing to accept the punishment, but... but I still feel a little unwilling in my heart."
Jiang Lili gently patted Ye Wanxue's hand: "Aunt, there is no absolute fairness in this world. But as long as you sincerely repent, your father will definitely give you justice. You must believe that time is the best tool to test people's hearts."
Ye Wanxue looked at Jiang Lili, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes. She knew that this young lady was really thinking about her. She nodded, her eyes full of determination.
.......
Jiang Jilian rubbed his cheeks, coughed dryly, and said, "Yun Di won't vent her anger on you. It just so happens that you and Li Li can help your father ease the relationship between me and her."
After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to my father."
Although Jiang Yinli had his doubts, he knew that his father's authority was unquestionable in this mansion. He agreed and turned away, walking towards Jiang Lili's boudoir with firm steps.
Jiang Lili was playing the zither in the room, the sound was melodious, like the sound of nature. When she heard footsteps, she was slightly startled, looked up and saw that it was Jiang Yinli, then she smiled slightly and put down the zither in her hand.
"Li Li, father asked us to go and persuade mother. What do you think we should do about this matter?" Jiang Yinli went straight to the point and stated his purpose directly.
A hint of complexity flashed across Jiang Lili's eyes. She sighed softly and said, "We should indeed persuade mother about this matter. However, you also know mother's character. Once she makes a decision, it is difficult to change it. What we need to do is not only to persuade her, but also to let her know that we are a family. No matter what happens, we must live in harmony."
Jiang Yinli nodded. Jiang Lili was right. Although they were both somewhat in awe of their mother's strictness, her mother was doing it for their own good.
They came to their mother's room together, pushed open the door, and saw their mother sitting in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside with a somewhat lonely expression.
"Mother." Jiang Lili and Jiang Yinli shouted at the same time.
Lu Yundi turned around and saw that it was them. He smiled slightly, but there was still unconcealable fatigue in his eyes.
"You are here, and I know why you are here." Lu Yundi said lightly.
Jiang Lili and Jiang Yinli looked at each other and sighed secretly in their hearts.
"Mother, we heard about what happened to father." Jiang Lili said cautiously, her eyes full of concern.
Lu Yundi nodded gently, with a trace of sadness in his eyes: "I know that this matter has been known to everyone in the mansion. I am not unreasonable, but Ye Wanxue has gone too far. Since she knows that I am the mistress of this mansion, she dares to act behind my back. Naturally, I can't let her be proud."
Jiang Yinli said in a deep voice: "Mother, we know you have been wronged, but father is helpless. The affairs of the mansion are complicated, and he has to do this for the sake of our family."
Lu Yundi's eyes softened when she heard this, but she still said firmly: "I understand. I am not blaming your father. I just feel that this family cannot be turned upside down by a concubine. I must let everyone know that I am the master of this mansion."
Jiang Lili gently held her mother's hand and said softly, "Mom, we understand your feelings. But please think about it. After all, you and your father are a family. We should live in harmony and work together to maintain this family. Tell me, if you and your father become estranged because of these trivial matters, how should we, as children, feel?"
Lu Yundi looked at her daughter, a touch of emotion flashed in her eyes. She gently patted Jiang Lili's hand and said, "Lili, you are right. I am just angry and feel that my dignity has been challenged. But I know that this family is the most important thing to me."
Seeing this, Jiang Yinli also took the opportunity to say, "Mother, we are willing to help you and father resolve the misunderstanding. You and father are doing this for us, and we can't let you worry too much."
Lu Yundi nodded slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Okay, since you say so, then I will listen to you. But you must remember, in the future in the mansion, you must let me know everything, and don't let me suffer such grievances again."
"We remember, mother." Jiang Lili and Jiang Yinli responded in unison.
......
Jiang Yuqi held the box and went into her mother Yu's room, saying happily, "Mother, I secretly sold some of the dowry in Lu Yundi's storehouse for a total of five thousand taels. How should we divide the silver?"
Yu was carefully examining an embroidery in the room. When she heard Jiang Yuqi's voice, she smiled slightly, put down her work, and looked at her daughter tenderly. Her eyes were filled with both reproach and pampering.
"Yuqi, what are you doing?" Yu spoke slowly, her voice carrying a hint of fatigue but still retaining dignity.
Jiang Yuqi rolled her eyes, and with a smile, she placed the box on the table, opened it, and revealed the neatly arranged silver coins inside. While fiddling with the silver coins, she said, "Mom, we will use part of this five thousand taels of silver, and the rest will be used to prepare a birthday banquet for my brother. What do you think?"
