Chapter 684
684 The richest wife and the head of the case
Her original plan was to slowly grind it out.
In the end, after Empress Jiang left, she found out that the Emperor was planning to choose concubines for his sons. Besides the seventh Prince, the first three princes were also of marriageable age.
she was anxious. in her past life, this was not the time to choose a prince’s wife.
Therefore, she had to immediately end li Muyan’s life and let Madam li acknowledge her as her daughter. She would then become the young lady of the Duke Rong residence and participate in the election.
As long as she participated in the selection, she was confident that she would be chosen by the third Prince.
she had even asked someone to imitate li muyan’s handwriting, so she wasn’t worried that mrs. li wouldn’t accept her as her daughter.
However, li Muyan had come back to life.
“Hmph! It took me ten days and a few hundred taels of silver to buy the materials, and you’re telling me it’s wrong? Li Shan, did your second aunt send you to test me? I’ve given birth to you, so let’s be frank!” Lady Li snorted coldly. She looked at Li Shan as if she was not looking at her own daughter, but an enemy.
li shan’s expression changed instantly, and with a pitiful look, she threw herself at eldest madam li’s feet, ” “Mother, how can you say that? This daughter is doing this for mother, for our first household! No matter how wealthy second aunt’s biological parents are, li Muyan is still a child of the Li family. As long as he’s around, our eldest branch’s daughter will only get a small dowry. Mother, you’ll have to rely on li Muyan for your retirement and be at his mercy. I’m really doing this for the five of us. Second older sister is already married for the first time, and eldest sister and third older sister are completely one family with second aunt and Li Muyan. Mother, there’s only the two of us, mother and son. You can’t not trust me like this.”
Lady Li’s heart softened when she saw Li Shan’s teary eyes, but she didn’t say anything.
Li Shan continued, ” second aunt has taken over our Li family. I’ll be her daughter and enjoy the things of her family. When the time comes, I’ll use them to show my filial piety to my mother. There are no brothers in second aunt’s family. She’s the only one left. Her parents will definitely give everything to me. Her mother could also get the Li family’s things. So, mother, we need to work together at this time! mother, you’re my mother, why would i lie to you, why would i team up with outsiders to bully you?”
Lady Li thought about it. Li Shan was only an eleven-year-old girl. If it was her elder daughter or third daughter, she would still be suspicious. Why would she suspect an eleven-year-old girl?
Eldest Madam li felt that she had become stupid after all these years of eating vegetarian and praying to Buddha.
She helped Li Shan up and sighed,”but li Muyan has recovered. We’ve lost everything!” Your second aunt, that person, has experienced it once. She will definitely be very cautious in the future. It will be difficult for us to poison her again!”
Li Shan wiped her tears and said,”mother, I don’t know where to start with li Muyan. What about second aunt?” She’s probably only on guard against li Muyan, but not against herself. We can deal with her! Mother, am I right?”
Eldest Madam li thought for a while and nodded.
Li Shan continued, ” second aunt has locked second uncle up. Second aunt is the most powerful in the Li family. We can’t let her die. Her parents don’t look like good people. If there is a legitimate reason that grandmother can’t stand second Shen, how good would that be!”
Lady Li’s eyes lit up.
Li Shan knew that she had successfully guided him. She continued, ” “Second aunt is having business with the Gu family’s Cai family, and Cai’s husband will come from time to time. Sometimes, it’s just the three of them. I feel that it is somewhat inappropriate for second Shen to meet people like this.”
This time, Mrs. Li’s eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth curved up.
The wife of the richest man and the new head of the case. Well, that’s great!
