Chapter 162
The old lady looked around at the people sitting below with a gentle smile on her face, such a smile would definitely feel that the old lady must be very kind if it was the first time to see the old lady, and would never have thought that such a gentle old man also had an evil side.
"It's been a long time since we've been together like this." The old lady smiled faintly, and the daughters-in-law and grandchildren below were all echoing.
Jiang Xingchen answered: "Although the family is separated, I think everyone can still get together when they have nothing to do." ”
Jiang Rujin just quietly looked at the people next to him, these people seemed to be very kind on the surface, but the feelings revealed in the corners of each person's eyes made people feel that there were many different meanings in it.
Jiang Rujin felt a little sad in his heart, in fact, the previous Jiang family was not like this, and the Jiang family was still very harmonious in the past, but since Mrs. Jiang, it has really changed a lot, there are a lot of intrigues in the middle, and the brothers and sisters have separated from each other.
This kind of thing is definitely not what the old man wants to see, but the worst thing still happens.
What the old lady said between the old lady and the aunts present, Jiang Rujin didn't listen.
Lan Jiuqing, who was sitting not far away, never left Jiang Rujin's eyes, and when he looked at Jiang Rujin, his eyes had a little more fascination.
He didn't know why he was attracted to Jiang Rujin like this, in short, when he saw Jiang Rujin, he felt that all the qiē in front of him was not important, and he couldn't help but want to see Jiang Rujin, and he couldn't help but want to follow Jiang Rujin all the time.
The disdain and disdain that was inadvertently revealed were so perfect in his eyes, Jiang Rujin finally waited until these people finished speaking, I don't know who mentioned it, I haven't had a party for a long time, and I want to let the old lady see their recent progress.
Jiang Rujin was secretly shocked when she heard this, and it was really the thing she was worried about.
These people are just afraid that they want her to make a fool of themselves, and the memories of their previous lives are surging like springs.
She remembered that she was coaxed by Jiang Ruxue and the younger sisters below to make a fool of herself, and finally became the laughing stock of everyone's after-dinner meal.
At that time, Jiang Ruxue said in advance that she would prepare a show together for everyone to be together, but in the end it became her one-man show, this was originally something to cooperate, only she insisted until the end, and Jiang Ruxue, who said before that she wanted to be with her, and several other people all had mockery and gloating smiles on their faces.
She quietly watched Jiang Ruxue play a song of mountains and flowing water, and the performance of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting at home was overwhelming.
waited until everyone had finished showing, leaving only Jiang Rujin.
Jiang Ruxue, who was sitting on the side, looked at Jiang Rujin with interest and said, "My sister must have learned a lot of things outside in the past two years, I don't know if I can appreciate my face?" ”
That's what it means to be called a performer.
"That's really not what it means to appreciate the face, and I'm not a monkey, why should I appreciate the face. I don't know the talent, you know, I didn't have such a good opportunity to have a husband teach me since I was a child, unlike my sisters and sisters. ”
Jiang Ruxue's face turned pale with anger: "You are a monkey, how can you say it from your mouth so unbearable?" ”
Jiang Rujin sneered: "I really can't say good words, just watch this performance for yourself, I'm really embarrassed to make a fool of myself in front of the prince, this is a loss for the Jiang family." And sister, I think you should go to perform again, there are not many opportunities to have the prince here, the eldest aunt invited so many grandmothers and gentlemen for you, my sister has a talent but can't find a good opportunity to show it, it's a pity to think about it. ”
These words were said in Jiang Ruxue's heart. Jiang Ruxue is actually a little sad, because since she was a child, her mother's requirements for her have been very strict, and she has always wanted her to become the pride of the sky, she has worked harder than others since she was a child, and she wants to be the best in everything she does, but these talents are only known to her own family, and people outside don't know, as a young lady of the Jiang family, it is impossible to show it outside, and many times I hear other young ladies boast about herself, she can't find a little opportunity for herself, and only those who have experienced this mood know how depressed it is.
Now that Jiang Rujin's words have reached her heart, her heart suddenly tightened, and she looked at Jiang Rujin a little uncomfortably: "What is this about you, the old lady will definitely ask you to perform, don't think you can escape." ”
Jiang Rujin sneered: "I didn't think about running away, I didn't think about performing at all." So don't bother, even if it's an old lady, I won't necessarily appreciate my face. ”
Jiang Ruxue was so angry that she choked: "Jiang Rujin, you are so bold when you speak now, I heard my mother say that you didn't believe it before you spoke, but now I believe it, and you can't marry in the future with your temper." ”
Jiang Rujin snorted: "I really don't need you to worry if I can marry or not, even if I can't get married, how can I live more comfortably than most women in this life, so you can put a hundred hearts on these, but you are already married, I can see that you like the prince very much." ”
The two of them spoke very quietly and no one could hear them, but Jiang Ruxue was so angry by Jiang Rujin's words that she was almost dying, and she was angry in her heart: "You are talking nonsense here." ”
"I'm not talking nonsense, you know it in your own heart, as long as you are not blind, you can see this matter, even if you quibble, it is useless."
She hesitated for a moment and continued: "But I know that the prince is not married yet, and he is proud of the ladies in the capital. Wang Xun and nobles don't look down on him, maybe you still have a chance. ”
These words seemed to have reached Jiang Ruxue's heart, and a trace of expectation flashed in Jiang Ruxue's eyes.
"Don't talk nonsense here." She panicked to hide the throbbing in her heart, and at this moment she was already so excited that she didn't know what to say.
She knows what Jiang Rujin said. From the first time she saw the prince in Jiang's mansion, she was fascinated by this handsome, arrogant and uninhibited man, and if it weren't for the fact that he understood the disparity in identity between the two for so many years, she wouldn't have .......
Jiang Rujin no longer cares about Jiang Ruxue, Jiang Ruxue in her previous life was such an arrogant person, Jiang Ruxue at that time made her feel as dazzling as a peacock high above, and at that time she looked at Jiang Ruxue with an upward gaze.
It doesn't matter to her what Jiang Ruxue looks like in this life, no matter what kind of person Jiang Ruxue becomes, she doesn't care.
Jiang Ruxue suddenly reacted that she had been led by Jiang Rujin just now. It was obvious that Jiang Rujin was watching her jokes.
She was about to be angry when she heard the old lady's voice.
The old lady sat on the throne with a smile on her face, she was a person who came over, and the more blind she saw Lan Jiuqing's eyes looking at Jiang Rujin, she could understand the eyes full of love at a glance, but I was afraid that Lan Jiuqing really liked Jiang Rujin.
She also wanted to add a little bit of fuel to the cracks; "Grandma Rujin knows that you didn't like these since you were a child...... I wonder if you can make spices in front of everyone? ”
Jiang Rujin originally thought that the old lady would embarrass her, but she didn't expect the old lady to do what she liked and let her do what she was best at.
Jiang Ruxue still wanted Jiang Rujin to make a fool of herself, but she didn't expect the old lady to do that. looked at his mother-in-law Xu a little worriedly, but saw Xu making eyes at her and signaling her to be calm.
Jiang Rujin felt that this was completely meaningless, and she looked at Lan Jiuqing with an appreciative smile on her face.
"The old lady doesn't know if there are any spices in the house? I calculated that the raw materials of various incense powders add up to seventy or eighty kinds, these things are indispensable, if there is, I can prepare a spice for everyone present. ”
She didn't expect that the old lady would not have so many spices. How could there be raw materials for preparing spices in this Jiang Mansion.
The old lady thought that Jiang Rujin didn't want to prepare it and was a little displeased.
Lan Jiuqing, who had not spoken, opened his mouth: "Before, I also thought that this spice preparation didn't need much spices, but when I went to Qi Gongzi's spice shop, I realized that there were more than seventy or eighty kinds of spices needed, and there were so many bottles and cans on the dazzling shelves, and there were more than seventy or eighty kinds of them." ”
Jiang Rujin glanced at Lan Jiuqing gratefully, knowing that Lan Jiuqing was now relieving her.
She felt that Lan Jiuqing was not incorrigible, and now she felt a lot more pleasing to the eye when she looked at Lan Jiuqing.
The old lady suddenly realized and quipped: "Interlaced like a mountain, it seems that I really don't understand your industry." ”
Jiang Rujin did not deny that he smiled and said nothing.
The scene is quite harmonious and harmonious. She waited left and right, and finally waited until the old lady said that it was almost late at night.
She didn't greet anyone else, and left early with Qiao'er.
Lan Jiuqing originally wanted to say a few words to Jiang Rujin, but in a blink of an eye, he couldn't see Jiang Rujin's person.
He couldn't help but be a little disappointed, thinking that he hadn't said a few words when he got along with Jiang Rujin, and he was inexplicably a little disappointed and uncomfortable.
Jiang Rujin was in a good mood inexplicably, and Qiao'er followed behind her and also felt Jiang Rujin's happy mood, and asked with some joy: "Why is Miss so happy?" ”
Jiang Rujin looked back at Qiao'er who was smiling like a flower: "Why do you think I am so happy to laugh?" ”
Qiao'er shook her head suspiciously: "The slave doesn't know, please explain to the young lady." ”
Jiang Rujin looked at the dark garden and said: "In the past, I was in the deepest darkness when I was in the game, so I couldn't see clearly when I looked around, but now I jumped out and was no longer in the dark, so I was so clear about Yiqiē." ”
In the past, I felt that everything was dark in the game, and I couldn't see the light around me at all, but now I jumped out of such a circle, but my vision suddenly became clearer, and I saw a lot of things around me, and it was no longer the confusion of being in the game.
Qiao'er didn't understand what Jiang Rujin meant by this. looked at Jiang Rujin as if he didn't understand: "What Miss said is so profound." ”
Jiang Rujin smiled gently: "It's not very profound, it's just a sudden emotion." ”
Qiao'er followed behind Jiang Rujin with some worries: "Miss, will you offend the eldest lady by stimulating the eldest lady like this, the eldest lady is very powerful in the mansion." ”
Although she has just entered the mansion, she also knows the murderous name of the eldest lady Jiang Ruxue, Jiang Ruxue is a very arrogant and domineering type in the mansion, although she looks very kind on the surface, but in fact she is very cruel and ruthless, and the people in the mansion are very afraid of Jiang Ruxue.
Now that Jiang Rujin has offended Jiang Ruxue so blatantly, it really makes her feel bottomless.
Jiang Rujin raised his eyebrows and saw Qiao'er, who was a little scared, and said, "Are you scared?" ”
Qiao'er nodded directly without concealment: "Miss, I'm a little scared, the eldest lady is really unreasonable to do things, so I ......." ”
Her little maid was really worried about getting into trouble, Jiang Rujin understood what Qiao'er meant: "You don't want to follow me anymore, do you?" ”
She could feel the meaning of the little maid's words, she was not a person who liked to force others, and if she really didn't want to be by her side, she wouldn't force herself.
Qiao'er felt a little overwhelmed with guilt in her heart. She did have the idea of leaving Jiang Rujin, and felt that it was too Wei Xia to follow Jiang Rujin's side, who knew when she would encounter danger, so she wanted to go directly to the eldest lady when she heard the invitation of the eldest lady.
Although Qiao'er didn't follow her for a few days, she was still a master and servant. There is still some affection between each other.
She smiled slightly, stood still, and then faced Qiao'er: "Since you want to leave, let's leave, I don't blame you for this, and I think this is also a reasonable thing." ”
She just felt a little chilly, but she didn't feel anything else, Qiao'er had her own choice, she respected it very much, so now she can agree to whatever Qiao'er says, but there is no possibility of becoming a master and servant with Qiao'er in the future, she is still very principled in doing things.
At this moment, Qiao'er was actually a little scared. I don't know why it would be fine if Jiang Rujin was angry with her or said a few words fiercely, but now Jiang Rujin actually agreed to her so gently that it really worried her.
"Miss, I'm sorry, you're so nice to me and I'm ......."
Qiao'er didn't finish the wine glass, Jiang Rujin interrupted: "You don't need to say it, this matter is over here, no matter who you are with in the future, I hope you are well, I really don't have any expectations for anything else." ”
Qiao'er knew that Jiang Rujin must still be angry, but the matter had come to the point where she didn't need to stay by Jiang Rujin's side.
"Thank you, Miss, for taking care of me these days, I just hope that Miss will be well in the future."
Jiang Rujin smiled and nodded, signaling Qiao'er to leave.
When Qiao'er's resolute back left, she smiled bitterly, and she was afraid that tomorrow there would be something ugly in the house.
Some unpleasant words seemed to be the first thing Jiang Rujin could expect in his heart.
Jiang Rujin is now calm, even if there is anything in the Jiang Mansion, it is a matter of course.
