The Lady's Code for Raising Her Husband

Mrs. Liu frowned, thought about it again and again, and finally made a decision: "As the saying goes, if you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet. I will be the first person to let Ye Yuxiao get his shoes wet. "

Before Mrs. Tao could object, Mrs. Liu asked her, "Do you have a relative who works at Honglu Temple?"

"Yes." Mrs. Tao declined subconsciously because she disapproved of her doing this. "That's my distant cousin, but he is just a steward who purchases ingredients and cannot be on the stage at all."

"The steward who purchases the ingredients? Wouldn't that be just right?" Mrs. Liu smiled, "If we have his help, our chances of winning will be even better."

Mrs. Tao sighed secretly and said, "Mom, he is only responsible for purchasing the ingredients. As for who eats the ingredients after buying them, he can't decide at all. How can he help you?"

"You don't know that." Mrs. Liu smiled mysteriously, "I've asked about it a long time ago. Princess Anxiang has a hobby and likes to eat all kinds of tree bark. Honglu Temple will definitely let your relative buy it. It's from tree bark. Do you think other than Princess Anxiang can eat this thing? When the time comes, the bark purchased by your relative will definitely be placed in front of Princess Anxiang. Others will eat it by mistake if they want. No."

Princess Anxiang actually eats tree bark? ? What kind of quirk is this? ? Mrs. Tao was stunned: "Mom, is this news accurate? How can tree bark be eaten? Could it be that you are mistaken?"

"I must be right. Many people know this, otherwise it wouldn't have fallen into my ears." Mrs. Liu said, "But if you don't believe it, that's fine. You can ask your distant cousin. Are you already secretly purchasing various tree barks?"

Mrs. Tao really didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Mrs. Liu had already made up her mind. She could only wade through this muddy water, so she nodded and agreed. There was nothing she could do about it, this was her mother-in-law, she had both prosperity and loss. Even if she didn't take a trip into this muddy water, she still wouldn't be able to find a way out when something happened to Mr. Liu.

Mrs. Liu was very anxious and urged Mrs. Tao to find her distant cousin. Tao had no choice but to go immediately.

When she arrived at her distant cousin's house, before she even said hello, she saw that her cousin was leading a group of people peeling bark off trees in the backyard, while his wife was leading a group of maids and women, and was furious beside her.

The distant cousin did not argue with his wife, but kept reminding the bark peeler to concentrate on his work and not to yell at her.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Tao understood everything and turned around silently.

It seems that Mrs. Liu is right, Princess Anxiang does have a habit of eating tree bark, otherwise her distant cousin would not be able to spare the trees in his own backyard.

She returned to the Duke of Wei's mansion, and Mrs. Liu was waiting for her. Mrs. Liu guessed the result as soon as she saw her face, and asked with a smile: "Now you finally believe it?"

Tao nodded, a little listlessly.

Mrs. Liu noticed her emotions, fearing that she would shrink from the battle, and hurriedly analyzed the pros and cons for her: "Don't look at the fact that our Wei Guogong's mansion looks beautiful on the surface, but in fact it has long been empty. You are the future mistress of Wei Guogong's mansion. You have to worry about this matter. Now a great opportunity is right in front of you. As long as Guiying can marry into the Prince of Chu's mansion, our Duke of Wei's mansion will be different."

What's the difference? She thinks that if the King of Chu can become the emperor, the Duke of Wei will become a relative of the emperor in the future? Mr. Tao really felt that Mr. Liu thought a little too far and a little too much. She sighed silently and said, "I will do whatever my mother tells me to do."

She has always been a submissive daughter-in-law. Faced with her mother-in-law's request, she was unable to resist and could only obey.

Mrs. Liu was very satisfied with her attitude. She called her forward with a smile and said to her: "I will prepare a generous gift for you. You can go talk to your distant relative."

Mrs. Tao felt that she was forcing things on others: "Mom, how could he agree to this kind of risk-taking thing for a little gift?"

This is true. Mrs. Liu thought for a while and said, "Then tell him that if the matter is settled, he is extremely wealthy. If it is not accomplished, he will pretend not to know and blame the matter on me. "

Is this... okay? Mrs. Tao felt that her idea was too unreliable, but things had reached this point, and she could only go to her distant cousin again.

Tao's distant cousin's surname is Nie Mingyuan. Nie Yuan saw her come to the door with a generous gift and couldn't help but be happy: "Cousin, I saw you coming before, why did you come back? Could it be that you forgot to bring the gift when you came just now, so you went back to get it?"

Tao was not in the mood to joke at all, so he immediately backed away and closed the door.

Nie Yuan said in surprise: "Cousin, what big thing do you want to tell me?"

Mr. Tao lowered his voice and conveyed Mr. Liu's meaning.

She originally thought that this request was too ridiculous and Nie Yuan would definitely not agree to it. However, after hearing this, Nie Yuan thought for a moment and then asked: "If this thing comes true, can I become a purchaser of Honglu Temple?" Are you in charge?"

Although he is now a steward, he is only responsible for one of the tasks, and there is a general steward pressing down on him. The steward didn't like him and always gave him small shoes. He had wanted to replace him for a long time, but there was no way.

Tao was very surprised and couldn't help but start to "reflect" on herself. Was she too timid? Otherwise, why would Nie Yuan have no psychological barriers and not be afraid of taking risks at all?

She calmed down and said to Nie Yuan: "If this thing is done, it will not only be the procurement manager of Honglu Temple, but also you can become the minister of Honglu Temple."

Although this statement is exaggerated, it is not false. If the Duke of Wei can really become a relative of the emperor, wouldn't Nie Yuan be able to become a procurement manager?

Nie Yuan suddenly became excited: "Okay, I will listen to your wife on this matter. You can tell me later what to do specifically."

"Okay." Mrs. Tao said goodbye to him and stood up to say goodbye.

Mrs. Liu was still waiting for Mrs. Tao's return in the Duke's Palace of Wei. She heard that Nie Yuan had agreed very readily. Mrs. Liu was very happy and praised Mrs. Tao several times.

The next day, Mrs. Liu obtained the secret medicine from the Western Regions and gave it to Mrs. Tao, asking her to give the medicine to Nie Yuan.

Tao did as he was told, went to see Nie Yuan again, and handed the medicine to him personally.

Nie Yuan was very cautious. He took the medicine, checked it over and over several times, and then asked Mrs. Tao: "What is the specific effect of this medicine? If you add it to the dishes, no one will notice it, right?"

Mrs. Tao said: "My mother-in-law said that this secret medicine is very magical. It only works when the vegetables are still hot. Once the vegetables are cold, the poisonous effect disappears and no one can find it out no matter how hard they check."

"So awesome?" Nie Yuan said, "Then you have to arrange a few of your own people at the banquet. After Princess Anxiang is poisoned, try to wait until the food is cold, but don't let the imperial doctor find out."
