At the time of the lantern, the mother and daughter of the Eda clan who went to Zenyun Temple to offer incense had already returned home. Jiang Suoyue cleaned up a little, and went to the main courtyard to greet the returning Jiang Tian clan, although she was dissatisfied with what Jiang Tian did, but this surface work still has to be done well, otherwise it will be in vain to teach the truth, how important is a woman's reputation, although she does not expect Jiang Tian to promote her reputation outside, but she also does not want to detain people for the crime of disrespecting her mother-in-law and tarnish her reputation.

Entering the flower hall, I saw Jiang Tian leaning on a rosewood carved chair, wearing a red five-bat pattern woven gold brocade shirt, wearing eight Hunan skirts with beeswax yellow underneath, wearing a red gold head, and her facial features are also beautiful, but her cheekbones are high, and the whole person reveals a compelling force.

At this time, it was already time to set the meal, the maids went in and out to serve the dishes, except for the pregnant Aunt Ning who was ordered by Jiang Zhaolin not to come over to wait, the other aunts lowered their eyebrows and arranged the dining table.

The third lady Jiang Yingyue sat on the embroidery pier next to her with a smile and beat Jiang Tian's feet, her movements were skillful and natural, if she didn't know that she was from Aunt Wang, anyone who saw such a scene would probably think that she was Jiang Tian's biological daughter. It's just that if you look closely, you can see that the smiles of the two people are not in sight.

Seeing Jiang Suoyue come in and salute, Jiang Yingyue smiled and said, "The sixth sister came so early, I don't know that I thought I was hungry for the food in my mother's yard~" There was a sincere joke on her face, but the provocation in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Jiang Yingyue has always liked to squeeze a few of their sisters, but she never dared to target Jiang Jiaoyue, who was her concubine, Jiang Suoyue understood that this was her means of survival, and she catered to her mother well-behaved, bullying a few of them to please the Jiang Tian clan, and doing things that the Jiang Tian clan was inconvenient to do because of her identity, saying that the Jiang Tian clan was too noble to declare it. It is not easy to survive as a concubine, and the major events of her life are in the hands of her mother-in-law, Jiang Yingyue volunteered to become a knife of the Jiang Tian clan, trying to pave her own brilliant future with other people's blood, Jiang Suoyue understood her choice, but she couldn't agree, and didn't say that the old saying Yun cunning rabbit died and cooked as a lackey, just said that as a concubine, she was smart and exposed, and her heart was cold, how could she not arouse the jealousy of her mother?

Jiang Suoyue didn't want to argue with her, so she pretended not to understand her ridicule, stepped forward and blessed Jiang Tian's family in a regular manner, looking timid and afraid, and said in a cowardly voice: "I don't dare to ask my mother and sisters to wait, so I came over earlier, but I don't want the third sister to be earlier than me." ”

Hmph, I'm not like you came over early, I came early because I couldn't get on the table, didn't you come earlier?

"You ......" Jiang Yingyue felt that these words seemed to be sarcastic to her, but she couldn't grasp any actual handles, and was about to say anything more, so she heard the grandmother preach: "Madam, the fifth lady is here." ”

Immediately, a pink figure walked in, didn't look at Jiang Yingyue and Jiang Suoyue, went straight to Jiang Tian's family, hugged her arm and said coquettishly: "Mother, can there be a cherry duck that Jiaojiao loves to eat today?" ”

Jiang Tian put his arm around her and smiled: "Forget that no one can forget what you love to eat, don't worry, I've prepared it for you." ”

Jiang Jiaoyue seemed to have just seen the two sisters at this time, her eyes rolled, the corners of her mouth pursed a sneer, and she said in a condescending tone: "Today, I went to Zenyun Temple with my mother to offer incense, and I bought some gadgets on the way, and I just gave some to the third sister and six sisters. Yuping, go get what I bought. ”

Jiang Jiaoyue's personal maid Yuping responded and retreated.

Jiang Yingyue's face showed a look of expectation, the Jiang Tian clan has always only taken their daughters when they go out, and the daughters who come out have no chance to go out to play, unless they ...... Like the second sister Jiang Wanyue, who has reached the age of talking about marriage, she has become a commodity in Jiang Tian's hand to be sold at a price, planning to find a good buyer to help her children. For example, if you go to Zenyun Temple today, what is incense! To put it bluntly, it's about looking at each other.

Jiang Jiaoyue probably saw the expectation in Jiang Yingyue's eyes, and a trace of disdain and ridicule appeared on the corners of her mouth.

Jiang Suoyue lowered her head, so that people couldn't see the emotion. Originally, I didn't have any expectations for the things given by this fifth sister who felt superior, and judging by her expression, I was deliberately teasing them.

Sure enough, when Yuping took the things, it was clearly the kind of silk flower that Tao'er was holding in her hand today, this kind of thing that she bought casually and gave it to the next person, and took it out and gave it to the two of them, the meaning of which is self-evident, that is, they are compared to slaves.

Jiang Yingyue's face was a little stiff, and she could see that the silk flower material and style were all ordinary colors, and they were matched by the maids at home, and even the decent maids around her disdain to wear them.

"What? The third sister and the sixth sister don't look down on my things? Jiang Jiaoyue said politely, but on her face was a proud gesture that she didn't dare to forgive you and not appreciate it.

It's just a trick to sweep people's faces openly and secretly, Jiang Suoyue naturally won't turn her face, her face is happy to accept, and she said: "I look at this broken branch begonia flower is good, is the fifth sister willing to cut love?" "Use this trick to ridicule people's lowliness, I say this is your favorite thing, how noble can you be!

Jiang Jiaoyue has always been favored, and her temperament is domineering and direct, she really didn't hear the crookedness inside, and the arrogance in her bones made her disdainfully speak: "Just take it, what is it worth." ”

Jiang Jiaoyue didn't hear it, it didn't mean that Jiang Tian wouldn't be able to hear it, her sharp eyes swept Jiang Suoyue, and saw that she was happily holding the begonia silk flower and looking at it, as if she really liked it very much. It doesn't seem to have a heart, but I haven't seen much of the world.

"Take it", Jiang Suoyue turned around and handed the begonia silk flower to the pearl, but it was impossible to tell whether the girl was asked to take it first or just picked it for the girl. Jiang Suoyue sneered in her heart, I took the silk flower according to your wishes, and you don't care who you put it on when you turn around.

Since Jiang Suoyue had already taken it, Jiang Yingyue naturally couldn't let herself become a target, so she reluctantly picked a gnolia flower, but the frost on her face seemed to be able to scrape off a layer.

Jiang Suoyue secretly said that he was a half-old child in the end, that is, he could endure it, and he was teased and slapped in the face like this, and he couldn't hide the unhappiness in his heart.

After a while, the second lady Jiang Wanyue also arrived, and several people were served by the aunt and the eldest girl to finish the meal. Jiang Suoyue is very glad that large families have a rule of eating and not sleeping and not saying a word, otherwise they have to worry about dealing with words and swords when eating, and they have to have indigestion.

After returning to her yard, Jiang Saoyue relaxed, and after washing up and sending the two Taoli out, Jiang Saoyue leaned on the bed, holding a copy of "Kyushu People" and reading it with relish. Eda always thought that she was a freshly enlightened straw bag who couldn't recognize a few big characters. As everyone knows, when she lived with Aunt Ning, Aunt Ning had already quietly taught her to read, but most of the words that Aunt Ning knew were related to medicinal materials, and no matter how much she could, she would not be able to. Fortunately, in her previous life, she had practiced calligraphy, and she still knew the traditional Chinese characters relatively well. This matter has to be prevented from being known by the Jiang Tian clan, and the Jiang Tian clan has always hoped that her daughter will be brilliant and outstanding, and press on the head of the concubine, so why should he let her be vigilant. Speaking of Jiang Tian's psychology, it is the same as that of his stepmother in his previous life, how to cater to this psychology, Jiang Suoyue can be regarded as experienced.

The Jiang family women enter the clan to learn enlightenment and literacy from the age of four, after the age of seven, they have to take care of the male and female defense, can no longer enter the clan to study, only in the inner house to learn some tea cooking, needlework and female red, as for the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, management of the inner house affairs but to see the arrangement of the wife, usually the concubine is not the opportunity to learn.

At present, the only sisters studying with Jiang Suoyue in the family study are Jiang Jiaoyue, who is a few months older than her, and Jiang Ruofu, the daughter of the second room, and the other sisters are past their age and no longer go out of the inner house. These two people relied on their status as concubines, and they never looked reluctant to deal with Jiang Suoyue, and Jiang Suoyue also fell easily.

Jiang Suoyue still gained a lot from listening to the master's lectures every day, but she always pretended to be stupid and stupid on her face, and the homework placed by the master was either procrastinating or so-so.

Jiang Jiaoyue was very proud when she saw her so "stupid", and she always told Jiang Tian that she couldn't support the wall in the mud, and Jiang Tian became more and more relieved.

The only thing that has doubts about Jiang Suoyue's stupidity is the pear next to her, Jiang Saoyue never reads and practices calligraphy in front of people, and never goes to the study at home to borrow books, her books are all bought from outside by Aunt Toning's mother Zhang and secretly brought to her. Even if you practice calligraphy, you try not to use paper and ink, and only use a pen dipped in water to write. But after all, Na Li'er was by her side all day long, and she was instructed by the Eda clan to monitor her, and she became aware of it after a long time.

According to her observations these days, Tao'er is a good person to accept, after all, she is still young, lively and straightforward, not very bold, and she will not do any work now, such a girl is difficult to get the master's weight, even if she sells it is not better than those who have been trained, it is difficult to find a good master, so they are often afraid of being resold and fall into that unclean place, but whenever they meet a good master, they will hold on tightly.

When she fell into the water that day, her father saw that there was only one pearl by her side, so he asked Eda to add some maids to her, and Eda probably didn't want to spend on her, so he bought peaches that were too young to work. But Li'er is different, she was originally a second-class girl next to the Jiang Tian clan, although she is not a confidant, but she also works for the Jiang Tian clan, such a clever and cautious and trained maid was sent to her by the Jiang Tian clan, and the role is clear at a glance.

Therefore, Jiang Suoyue adopted various strategies to break down, first attacking Tao'er, and using both grace and power, and the pearls were beaten from time to time, and Chen Qing's interests were with her. She then grasped the characteristics of Peach's child's heart, and when she got interesting objects, she played with her, and soon took her under her command. As for Li'er, she was not in a hurry to do it, so as not to alert the Eda clan, but to ruin things.
