Chapter 8 A New Turning Point

Jiang Rujin cautiously went to the garden, the memory in her mind was so obvious, the reason why she remembered it was because Jiang Ruxue would appear in the garden to play the flute later today, which attracted the attention of Lan Jiuqing, the king of Xiaoyao, and was taken by the king of Xiaoyao so far and married into the palace of Xiaoyao Wang, although she was not a concubine, she was a very favored concubine, which added a lot of glory to the Jiang family.

She waited behind the rockery early, this is the place where the two of them must come, because this rockery is a scene in the garden, and from Jiang Xingchen's yard, you must first pass through here before you can enter the garden.

She found a slightly hidden place, and soon heard footsteps and voices talking, and it was two men.

She had been prepared early, and at this time she began to cry, and the sound made everyone who listened to it feel extremely distressed.

Jiang Xingchen and Lan Jiuqing had just walked to the rockery when they heard a cry, as the master of this family, Jiang Xingchen naturally wanted to figure out what was going on, and Lan Jiuqing was also full of curiosity.

"Who came out for me?" Jiang Xingchen stood on the bluestone path next to the rockery and shouted in a low voice.

Jiang Rujin knew that the time was ripe, so he slowly wiped his tears with a handkerchief and walked out with his head down.

Jiang Rujin was very flustered at the moment and did not raise his head, but kept looking down at the ground.

"Which yard are you from? Why cry here for no reason, give me a look up, I take a look. Jiang Xingchen was already suppressing his anger, after all, Lan Jiuqing was a distinguished guest, and now he must have left a bad impression when he saw such a scene.

Jiang Rujin slowly raised his head and looked directly at Jiang Xingchen, only to see Jiang Xingchen wearing a jade crown on his head, wearing purple and gold satin dark pattern robes with court boots, and the whole person was very imposing.

And Lan Jiuqing, who was standing next to Jiang Xingchen, was dressed in a dark blue satin robe, wearing a crown of white jade hair and cyan court boots, and holding a folded fan in his hand.

Just at a glance, she came back to her senses and hurriedly saluted, and said in a weak voice: "Rujin asks for peace to the eldest brother, Rujin didn't know that the eldest brother would come here today, and I asked the eldest brother for forgiveness for offending the eldest brother." ”

Jiang Xingchen looked at Jiang Rujin, whose face was full of tears and his eyes were red and swollen, and felt that the name was very familiar, and whispered: "Rujin." ”

Suddenly, he remembered who Jiang Rujin was, frowned slightly, and said, "Why are you crying here for something." ”

Jiang Rujin was angry in her heart at the moment, her father was also Jiang Xingchen's third uncle, but now Jiang Xingchen said such a thing that he didn't know the news that her father had died, I was afraid that the old lady deliberately blocked the news and didn't let Jiang Xingchen know, I was afraid that people outside would not know about it, no wonder the old lady dared to say those words without fear, it turned out that she had been prepared for a long time, and she had a vicious mind.

Jiang Rujin looked at Jiang Xingchen in surprise and said sadly: "My mother just gave birth to a younger brother and no one takes care of him, my father ...... My dad ....... Speaking of this, Jiang Rujin's crying became louder, and he kept sobbing, and his sad appearance made people think of bad things all of a sudden.

Jiang Xingchen was also a little anxious and hurriedly asked; "Rujin, you say slowly, what do you say happened to your father?"

Jiang Rujin covered his mouth and tears fell big drops, and said with grief: "It has been three days since my father died, and now the body is left alone in the mourning hall, there is no monk overdue, there is no incense wax paper candle, and there is not even a person who keeps vigil, and I don't know when I can be buried. ”

After she finished speaking, she hid her face and cried bitterly, this time she didn't mean anything deliberate, it was completely because she was too sad in her heart.

People are good and bullied, horses are good and ridden, if they were very strong before the third room, not only relying on her father to support themselves, they would not have ended up in such a situation now.

Jiang Xingchen's face turned pale instantly, and he staggered back a step.

"What do you say? Did the third uncle pass away? "The relationship between him and Jiang Tianan is still very good, Jiang Tianan also came out to eat with him when he was in the capital before, and he calculated the time, which was more than two months ago.

It has been three days since Jiang Tian'an's death, and he has not heard any news about him on the second day he returned home.

He was very worried that Jiang Rujin hurriedly comforted: "Rujin, don't cry, your father's matter is known to the eldest brother, and if there are guests here today, the eldest brother will arrange it for you, okay?" ”

Jiang Rujin relieved his heart a little and thanked him gratefully.

raised his head and glanced at Lan Jiuqing, saw the pity that flashed in Lan Jiuqing's eyes, nodded slightly at Lan Jiuqing, saluted and turned to leave.

Jiang Xingchen saw that Jiang Rujin had already walked away before turning to Lan Jiuqing and said apologetically: "Let Jiuqing laugh, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and my third uncle is a good person who has been doing his best for the Jiang family all his life." After speaking, he shook his head helplessly.

Lan Jiuqing naturally understood what Jiang Xingchen meant, this was a family matter, and he, an outsider, naturally had no right to speak out or interfere.

He smiled faintly and said indifferently: "In this kind of weather, if the corpse is left for a few more days, I am afraid that it will taste ......." He clicked, but he glanced at the direction Jiang Rujin left with pity, and Jiang Rujin's cry actually made him know what it was like to worry for the first time.

Jiang Rujin quickly returned to the courtyard, she went directly to the mourning hall, and only returned to the inner courtyard after kowtowing three times in front of Jiang Tianan's spirit.

It's just that before she approached Chen's bedroom, she heard Chen's crying voice, and she understood that she was afraid that the old man didn't want to be this wicked person, or didn't want to clash with the old lady head-on.

quickly entered the room, and saw Chen lying on the marble round table crying, and Cuiping holding the child and standing aside looking at a loss.

"Mother." Jiang Rujin shouted in a low voice.

Chen raised his head and stood up and walked towards Jiang Rujin, stretched out his hand to hug Jiang Rujin and then cried bitterly.

"Your grandfather doesn't want to help."

Hearing what Chen said in his ear, Jiang Rujin comforted: "Mother, don't be sad, although grandpa said that he was unwilling to help, but the eldest brother was willing to help."

Chen stopped crying instantly, grabbed Jiang Rujin's shoulders with both hands, looked at her in surprise, and said, "Rujin, what did you say?" ”

"Big brother is willing to help." Jiang Rujin looked at Chen very seriously.

It's just that Chen had a bad premonition in her heart, and she asked very nervously, "Rujin, did you go to your eldest brother's yard to find him?" ”

She couldn't say anything about it, and saw that Chen was very nervous and comforted softly: "Mother, I didn't go to his yard to find him, I was sad and went to cry behind the rockery, and then he came with a guest and heard my cry and asked me about my situation, I told the truth, and then the eldest brother said that this matter was handed over to him." ”
