Chapter 359, The Storm Rises (12)
Jiang Xiaolou on the Jiang family's side only received a letter from Nangong Mengru in the evening, Jiang Xiaolou and Nangong Mengru formed an alliance, in fact, it was an accident, for Nangong Mengyun was hostile to her, Jiang Xiaolou felt a little bit, so he had always been careful to guard against Nangong Mengyun.
Once the Nangong family held a banquet, Jiang Xiaolou went as promised, and then when he was in Nangong's house, he was almost calculated by Nangong Mengyun and lost himself to a gentleman in Dingbei Houfu, Jiang Xiaolou at that time was at the last moment, thanks to the help of Nangong Mengru, the young lady of the Nangong family, this failed to let Nangong Mengyun's conspiracy succeed, and then the two secretly interacted with each other, and over time, the two formed an alliance.
Nangong Mengru wanted to bring down Nangong Mengyun's sisters, and Jiang Xiaolou needed someone who was in Nangong's house who could deliver the latest information for him, and the two hit it off and reached an alliance.
Jiang Xiaolou read the letter sent by Nangong Mengru to the maid, and was taken aback, he didn't expect that since the second master of the Nangong family had such ambitions and tried in vain to get involved in the royal family, this Nangong Mengyun couldn't marry the fifth prince, and the idea hit the seventh prince, and the seventh prince was just a joke, since Nangong Mengru was a moth to the fire, it was a pity for this girl.
Jiang Xiaolou said that it was incomprehensible for Nangong Mengru's moth to put out the fire, but since Nangong Mengru made her own decision, Jiang Xiaolou, as an ally, was not easy to say, no matter what the future road was, it had nothing to do with her, the road was chosen by herself, and she couldn't complain about anyone in the future.
For the Nangong family, Jiang Xiaolou also knew about the past of the second master of Nangong back then, and now the Nangong family, the concubine abandoned by the second master of Nangong, happened to be working under Jiang Xiaolou, and after reading Nangong Mengru's letter, Jiang Xiaolou knew what he should do next.
"Go back and let your young lady rest assured, the county lord knows what to do!" The relationship between him and Nangong Mengru is just an alliance, and it has not yet reached the point of putting his heart in his heart, so Jiang Xiaolou did not say too much else.
After Nangong Mengru's maid got Jiang Xiaolou's words, she got up and retired, left the Jiang family, and went back to Nangong Mengru to report every word Jiang Xiaolou said.
Jiang Xiaolou had to sigh, the failure of the Nangong family to educate their children in the second room of the couple, they are also daughters, they love the eldest daughter, but they ignore the younger daughter, people are bloody, rabbits bite people when they are in a hurry, the Nangong family has a good show to watch now!
"County Lord, why don't you let the young master of the Nangong family go back to the Nangong family with him?" Jiang Xiaolou's side, a new maidservant, the previous dark seven, and now Qiu Yue asked at this time.
Back then, the second master of Nangong and the country girl had a spring breeze, and the country girl was also a powerful one, since she was pregnant in one fell swoop, and it was a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and then because of this pair of children, the country girl was not easy to marry, and then finally married an honest peasant woman with a dead wife when she was eighteen years old as a stepmother.
Three or four years ago, the secret guard knew by chance that the Nangong family had two concubines and concubines who were outcast, and Jiang Xiaolou only knew, and after that, Jiang Xiaolou had been secretly helping these two children of the same age as himself to grow up, the purpose was to come in handy one day.
Qiu Yue opened her mouth to ask Jiang Xiaolou at this time, and Jiang Xiaolou suddenly realized when she heard it, indeed, the girl from the countryside gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and now the girl is useful to the Nangong family to take it back, there is no reason for the boy to admit it, the Nangong family has always had few heirs, compared to the Dingguo Guild, it is very happy to have more concubines.
"Qiuyue, you go on a trip in person, tell those two about the situation of the Nangong family, as for after entering the Nangong family, let them be careful, I will let people contact them if there is anything·······" After thinking about it, Jiang Xiaolou asked Qiu Yue beside him to quietly run around and inform the two of them that the Nangong family would be ready to pick them up one day.
After all, they grew up in the countryside, although under Jiang Xiaolou's secret help over the years, the life of the family has been much better, but it is inevitable that there will be no Zhang Cheng in the face of the people who picked them up from the Nangong family, so Jiang Xiaolou ordered Qiu Yue to go and tell one or two.
It is also a coincidence, the two concubines and concubines of the Nangong family, the farmer's family where their own mother remarried, and the Jiang family can be regarded as having a turning relationship, the farmer was a dead wife before, and then he married the unmarried woman who was pregnant, the farmer and the original partner have two sons and a daughter under their knees, the daughter is fine, less dowry, and they got married, but the two sons have not married a wife until they are twenty years old.
At that time, Jiang Xiaolou's aunt, Su Qing, who married into the Chen family, happened to settle in the suburbs of Lin'an City under Jiang Xiaolou's arrangement, and the eldest daughter of the Chen family, Chen Meier, and her ex-husband Heli, with three children, had five acres of land under their names, and then they didn't know where to inquire about the news, so they let the eldest son of the family, who was over twenty years old and had not yet married a wife, go to the Chen family to ask to marry Chen Meier.
Chen Mei'er because she has three daughters, a divorced woman, can marry someone who has never been married, and she doesn't have to be a stepmother, but she is also willing, so she took her three daughters to marry the eldest son of the family.
The next day, on the outskirts of Lin'an City, a family next to Chen's house ushered in a girl with two little maids, this girl is Qiu Yue next to Jiang Xiaolou, Qiu Yue was ordered by Jiang Xiaolou, and came to Chen Meier's house early in the morning with some things, Chen Meier can also be regarded as recruiting a son-in-law, because she has five acres of land in her hands, and her ex-husband has three daughters.
After Jiang Xiaolou learned about it, he kindly sent another five acres of land to Chen Meier to make makeup, and also spent money to build a brick house for her, and now five years have passed, Chen Meier's life is also good, and she has two sons and a daughter with her current husband.
After all, she didn't recruit a son-in-law to come to the door, and her husband's Liu family was poor haha, so Chen Mei'er took her dear brother-in-law and a pair of concubines and concubines who were left out of the Nangong family to live together.
The Liu family was originally poor haha, if it weren't for Chen Meier's marriage into the Liu family, the two concubines and concubines of the Nangong family would have been sold, and they would naturally be respectful to Chen Meier's sister-in-law.
"Mother, there is a sister looking for you outside the door!" Chen Mei'er and her ex-husband's eldest daughter is eight years old, and she is playing in the yard with her younger siblings today, and when she heard Qiu Yue say that she was looking for her mother, she immediately entered the house and shouted to Chen Mei'er, who was in confinement.
Qiu Yue looked only seventeen or eighteen years old because of her being a secret guard and Jiang Xiaolou's appearance had changed, and it was normal for an eight-year-old child to call her sister at this time.
Chen Meier just gave birth to her daughter a few days ago, and she was in confinement, so she put down her daughter and walked out, and then after talking to Qiu Yue, Qiu Yue was also direct, and did not beat around the bush, and told Chen Meier the truth, Chen Meier heard that it was about her sister-in-law, so she paid attention, and Qiu Yue's every word was in her heart.
Chen Mei'er actually wondered before, why did her cousin tell her to take special care of her sister-in-law, and let herself keep stopping her in-laws, not letting them set up a family affair for her sister-in-law, but now she understands, it turns out that there is such a thing, Chen Mei'er is not stupid, and naturally understands what Jiang Xiaolou means, so after the sister-in-law came back, she told her sister-in-law about things, and did not forget to tell her sister-in-law not to forget her roots·······
On the side of the Nangong family, the second master of Nangong is old, crying in front of Dingguo Gong and the old lady about the mistakes he made more than ten years ago, Dingguo Gong and his wife are very angry in their hearts, but they are helpless, although it is the wrong thing that the son did outside back then, it may suddenly appear that the concubine and the concubine may appear, the two old people are not happy, but after all, it is the blood of the Nangong family, how can they be left outside.
So they sent someone to the outskirts of Lin'an City to look for the events of the year, and the two old men thought that if there was really the blood of the Nangong family who was outcast, they would definitely want to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, if not, it would be the best······
The other rooms of the Nangong family were also taken aback when they heard this, they never thought that the second room was silent, and now that they have made a concubine and a concubine, Dingguo Gong thought that he would not encounter such a thing again in his life, but now that he is about to grow old, since he has made such a thing again.
The eldest daughter of the eldest grandson of the eldest house is ten years old, and she can discuss marriage in two or three years, and now there is such a thing happening, what a sin!
"The fourth sister-in-law stays, the little sister wants to ask the fourth sister-in-law about something······" Under the heartache of Dingguo Gong, the younger generations of the Nangong family have left the courtyard of the two old men, Jiang Xiaoqiao, as the daughter-in-law of the Nangong family's house, has a relationship with the second room of the Nangong family, and at this time he is taking a different path.
Jiang Xiaoqiao and the eldest princess Chu Lingyu were walking all the way, and at this time, they were suddenly stopped by Nangong Mengru in the second room, and they wondered in their hearts, Nangong Mengyun in the second room has always disliked herself, Nangong Mengru, as her younger sister, suddenly greeted herself today, what is going on?
Although he didn't understand what was going on, Jiang Xiaoqiao still said something to the eldest princess, then stopped and waited for Nangong Mengru, while the eldest princess was very puzzled, and she turned around and separated from Jiang Xiaoqiao step by step!
"Is there anything wrong with Sister Mengru?" Jiang Xiaoqiao and Nangong Mengru have never had much contact, but at this time, looking at Nangong Mengru, he slowly spoke with a smile on his face!
Although they live in the same Guogong Mansion, Jiang Xiaoqiao is the daughter-in-law of the long house, and Nangong Mengru is the young lady of the second room, and they are just nodding friends on weekdays, but now Nangong Mengru suddenly spoke, which made her a little overwhelmed.
"I heard people say that the fourth sister-in-law is going back to Jiang's house in two days, and my sister has a letter here, and I want to ask my sister-in-law to bring it to ·······the county lord." After Nangong Mengru looked around, he saw that there was no one, so he spoke to Jiang Xiaoqiao in a low voice.
Nangong Mengru sent someone to send a letter to Jiang's house yesterday, and was almost discovered, so she took the risk to talk to Jiang Xiaoqiao, and asked Jiang Xiaoqiao to send a letter to Jiang Xiaolou, Nangong Mengru asked about the "sister" who came back soon, Nangong Mengru learned from the maid yesterday that her father did have a concubine who was outcast.
This time, Nangong Mengru wanted to ask Jiang Xiaolou, what their next plan was, was she going to form an alliance with the sister who was about to come back, or did the two pretend not to know each other and not get along?
Although I was surprised in my heart, how could this cousin in the second room ask herself to send a letter to her mother's sister, but Jiang Xiaoqiao was not visible, took the letter handed over by Nangong Mengru, and after a few words of greeting between the two, they went back separately!
"Second master, second lady, His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince is here!" Although the second master of Nangong and the second lady and his wife are ready to marry the youngest daughter of the family to the seventh prince as a side concubine, they are still worried about the eldest daughter.
The youngest daughter's sudden display of intelligence made Nangong Er and his wife a little uncertain, this suddenly, how can the little daughter who came out of the country be compared with the eldest daughter who they have been in pain since childhood and carefully cultivated, the younger daughter is just a substitute, what they hope most is that the eldest daughter can marry a certain prince, become the prince's concubine, and become the queen in the future.
Just when the two didn't know how to solve the matter of their eldest daughter, the next person came in to report that Chu Yunhua, the eighth prince, had come to visit.
The eighth prince Chu Yunhua was not looked at by the second master of Nangong because his mother was a concubine of the cold palace, and now that the eighth prince suddenly visited, the second master of Nangong and his wife were surprised, but the other party was a prince anyway, and there was no reason to refuse it.
"Please wait in the hall for the eighth prince, and try to avoid the people in the big room and the third room!" The second master of Nangong did not speak, but the second lady of Nangong spoke before him.
The second lady of Nangong instructed her subordinates to invite the eighth prince to the hall to wait, the second master of Nangong and the second monk were puzzled, the eighth prince was just the son of a waste concubine, who grew up in the cold palace, and the foreign family Changping Bo was declining more and more, what does his wife mean.
"Master, although the eighth prince is two years younger than Yun'er, he is the prince after all, and if Yun'er marries the eighth prince, then she will be a concubine·······" After the second lady of Nangong left, she slowly opened her mouth and explained the reason to the second master of Nangong.
As far as the second lady of Nangong is concerned, although the youngest daughter is likely to be a side concubine for the Seventh Prince, she loves the eldest daughter more, so she plans for the eldest daughter at all costs.
Although the youngest daughter is also her daughter, she is a side concubine, and it is not certain whether the side concubine can become the queen in the future, and the seventh prince is like that, obsessed with poetry and books, and may not be interested in that position.
