Chapter 35: Where to Go
The old lady nodded with satisfaction and said, "Therefore, the Yang family can't waste this opportunity, and they can't just find someone to marry into the Three Princes' Mansion, even if Concubine Shu really wins Ah Zhi, it can't be Ah Zhi." You have to understand. β
After she finished speaking, she looked at Yang Yuanshu again. Yang Yuanshu immediately lowered her head and made a shy.
Yang Wang's pretend, the old lady's words said this, she also knew that the old lady meant that no matter whose post was in line with the eight characters of the third prince Li Ke, the person who married Li Ke was Yang Yuanshu, and she was the representative jointly elected by the Yang family. And others, as part of the Yang family, should not be forced to fool around.
"The sinner understands. Yang Wang lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, and replied in a lonely tone.
"Don't mention the word sinner. That matter has been revealed, and in the future, you will still be the wife of the sixth master of the Yang family. The old lady said slowly. It was regarded as hammering the Yang Wang family with a stick, and then giving a sweet date, indirectly promising the Yang Wang family that if this matter was completed and their family kept to themselves, the Yang family would not treat them badly.
"Thank you, old lady. Yang Wang knelt on the ground from the pony and said in a choked voice, "Thank you for the forgiveness of the old lady." β
"Don't mention it. On that day, I was overdoing it. Old Madam Yang waved her hand before she said, "As for Azhi's marriage, she is still young." When he arrives, I will choose the children of famous families to match. You can rest assured of this. β
"Thank you, old lady. Yang Wang's mouth was still the same sentence, and then motioned to Jiang Chengzi to thank him.
Jiang Chengzi hurriedly knelt down and said crisply, "Thank you, grandmother." β
"Haha, Ah Zhi is much more sensible. I said before that it's a private routine, and you don't have to be an old lady. I like to call Ah Chi my grandmother. Old Madam Yang laughed heartily, and the smile on her face was like a big bad wolf. At this moment, Grandmother Wolf was beckoning to Jiang Chengzi and said, "Come, come to Grandmother." β
Jiang Chengzi stepped forward as he said, and one-third of his buttocks sat on the edge of the bed that Old Madam Yang pointed out, so as to look particularly ladylike and dignified.
Old Madam Yang often sighed and said, "In the end, I want to wronged you, but I look at you like this, and you are also a blessed person, don't be annoyed." β
"Grandmother's arrangement is very good to Ah Zhi, and I can't ask for it. Jiang Chengzi replied very obediently.
"Well, you're sensible. The old lady complimented again.
Jiang Chengzi didn't want to continue to be so hypocritical and disgusting with this old woman, so she let her pour ** soup into a child. Therefore, she flashed her innocent eyes, looked at the old lady, and thanked her again, and then without waiting for the old lady to speak, she changed her words, lowered her voice and said timidly to the old lady: "Ah Zhi wants to ask, my eldest brother he-"
She wanted to speak and stopped, the old lady was a human spirit, and immediately smiled and said: "You child, always think about your eldest brother, don't worry, this time the concubine brought the shortcomings, I will choose a suitable one for your eldest brother." β
"Thank you, old lady. Jiang Chengzi thanked him as usual, and then immediately asked a question: "Grandmother, the eldest brother is still young. β
"Don't worry. Your brother and sister are not fatherless. This omission was first hung by your father, but in fact, it was Qing Rang's experience. In a few years, your father will be unwell, and Qingrang will be old, so he will be able to hang up this gap. That's the proper arrangement. The old lady said.
Jiang Chengzi scolded in his heart: your second uncle. Then he politely refused, saying: "I heard that my father is unwell, and I am afraid that it is not suitable for fatigue." β
"Your father has no obstacles. Let your two mothers, mother and daughter, plus your eldest sister go to take care of them together, it will be no big deal. Old Madam Yang replied immediately, and her tone and expression were word-for-word and irrefutable.
"Grandmother's arrangement is so thoughtful. Jiang Chengzi said with a smile, and he couldn't wait to tear off the hypocritical face of this old woman.
The old lady was still smiling, but she ignored Jiang Chengzi at this time, and said directly to Yang Qingrang: "Qingrang, you are a child of the Yang family, remember to be ambitious, and in the future, you must be down-to-earth, display your talent, and add glory to the Yang family." β
"The grandson obeys the teachings. Yang Qingrang replied.
When the old lady said this, she seemed to be foreshadowing something. Based on his years of experience in pit people, Jiang Chengzi thinks that this old woman must be pit Yang Qingrang.
She secretly slandered herself in her heart, but she heard the old woman say: "I thought about it, and according to Qingrang's age and ability, I chose Jinyuan County as your training place." β
Sure enough, this official position is small enough and useless enough. However, Jiang Chengzi's impression is that this Jinyuan County is in Taiyuan, which is not a poor mountain and bad water, and a remote area. From this point of view, the old woman is not so desperate.
"Taiyuan?" asked Yang Wang with some excitement. After all, the Yang Wang's family is the Taiyuan Wang's family. After her father and mother passed away, she was fostered to the side branch of Fanyang Wang's family. If she really goes to Jinyuan County, she will walk around with the people in her family, and if her own children are promising, the future will still be bright.
Yang Wang's idea is also the reason why Jiang Chengzi feels that this wife is not vicious. However, Jiang Chengzi's opinion of this old woman is too limited.
Just after Yang Wang's question about "Taiyuan", Mrs. Yang shook her head and said: "The Yang family has been a prince for many generations, and has a close past with the royal family of the previous dynasty, no matter how talented he is, no matter how wise the emperor is, it is impossible not to be wary. Therefore, how can the lack of giving Yang be in the Central Plains. β
"Where is that?" Jiang Chengzi couldn't help but ask. In her memory, Jinyuan County is near Taiyuan, yes. At that time, in the army, there was a training assignment that was completed in Jinyuan County, near Taiyuan.
Old Madam Yang lowered her eyes and sighed before saying, "Shuzhong." β
Jiang Chengzi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was Shuzhong, not a miasma land in the ancient south. But Yang Wang's obviously didn't think Shuzhong was good. In the early Tang Dynasty, although Chengdu was a prosperous place, Shuzhong was still a bleak place of Bashan and Chushui.
"Old lady, thisβ" Yang Wang asked anxiously.
"There is no way to do this, choose and choose, and only this one official position is suitable for you. Mrs. Yang replied, despairing the hope of the Yang Wang.
Jiang Chengzi stepped forward, pulled his wife, and said, "Auntie, don't worry." Grandmother is taking care of us. Although people say that Bashan Chushui is desolate, there are plains in Shu and thousands of miles of fertile fields, which is an excellent place to go. β
When Yang Wang heard this, he asked, "Really?"
Jiang Chengzi nodded and replied: "Ah Zhi will never dare to deceive his mother. β
Old Madam Yang said with great appreciation on the side: "The nine girls are well-informed and insightful. Then, she looked at Yang Wang and said, "You are also a blessed person." Look at your sons and daughters. β
"Thank you, old lady. Although Wang Yang didn't understand Jiang Chengzi's actions, her daughter's actions must have a deep meaning, and she didn't continue to grind anything with Mrs. Yang, so she thanked her reasonably.
Jiang Chengzi appeased his wife, and then asked Mrs. Yang again, where is this Jinyuan County in Shuzhou.
Old Madam Yang shook her head, unable to understand. Yang Gongren, who had been silent, opened his mouth and said: "Jinyuan County is not the Jinyuan of Taiyuan as you think, this place belongs to Jiannan and North Road, not far from Yizhou, although it is not prosperous, but it is also stronger than the border town. β
"It turned out that it was not far from Yizhou. Thank you grandmother. Jiang Chengzi knelt on the ground.
Yang Qingrang didn't understand these geographical concepts, but he also knelt down together. Mrs. Yang raised her sleeves to wipe her tears, and said that Bashan Chushui, they went this time, the mountains and rivers are far away, and they can only be in a dream if they want to see each other.
Jiang Chengzi was wondering what the old lady said, but Yang Qingrang had already said to the old lady: "Grandmother, don't be sad, your grandson can be transferred back to the Central Plains in a few years, and then you will come to visit your grandmother from time to time." β
When the old lady heard this, she immediately said with a straight face: "You are still young, you must study hard, lay a good foundation, and don't waste yourself by going to camp too early." β
"Yes. Yang Qingrang looked like he was following the teachings.
Jiang Chengzi suddenly realized: Heheda, the old lady's trick is really ruthless. Throw their family to a remote place in Bashu. Without promotion, or the call of the imperial court, their whole family could not leave Shuzhou at all. If there is no great achievement, no recommendation, there is no activity in the court. Then, Yang Qingrang will never have a bright future in his life, and he will not be able to come back at all. And their family will take root there, and future generations will be farther and farther away from the thousand-year-old family.
In the high-ranking family, the most poisonous woman's heart, it is indeed true!
Yang Wang obviously understood this, and sat on the pony at this moment, without saying a word. And Mrs. Yang was still shedding crocodile tears, telling her reluctance to cling to Jiang Chengzi's family, saying that if she wronged them, the Yang family would not forget them.
Jiang Chengzi scolded her countless times in his heart, and then said: "Grandmother, don't worry, my eldest brother is talented and will definitely get ahead, and we won't be in Shu for long." β
When Mrs. Yang heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned, then nodded and muttered, "Yes." Your brother and sister are both talented people, and they can be buried. β
The old lady's tone was very light, but Jiang Chengzi saw the fierceness that should not be detected from her so-called kind eyebrows. She thought of the path she was about to take, or it might not be difficult to be peaceful.
"Ah Zhi and I will work hard. Yang Qingrang said.
Old Madam Yang nodded, with a tired look, and said, "You go and prepare, you will leave in three days, and I am tired, so you can retreat." β
The mother and son saluted, and with the support of Yunzhu, the four masters and servants returned to the courtyard.
Yang Wang was not too happy, and only sat by the window in a daze. Yun Zhu was packing up her baggage, muttering as she cleaned up, saying, "It's really a headache to get along with the second aunt and mother and daughter again." β
Jiang Chengzi thought that this time it was his stupid father who really took office, and it was his eldest brother who handled affairs. And when his father takes office, his wife, children, and concubines also have to move forward. Somehow, Jiang Chengzi thought of the concubine who tried her best to kick out her own mother, who had regarded herself as a wife for nine years, and now had to travel a long way to Shuzhou, she inexplicably felt comfortable.
