Chapter Seventy-Five: Alarm in All Directions
Chen Jia and Jiang Qian played a game, Jiang Qian deserved to be the current master, Chen Jia finally lost the chess game after a lot of competition. Although you lose the honor, after all, only when you lose will you realize your own shortcomings!
"In the future, in front of outsiders, say that I taught you three years ago!" Jiang Qian put the black chess pieces back into the white stone bowl one by one
"Good!" Chen Jia agreed to this without thinking.
"Don't you ask why?"
"I know it in my heart!"
"It's a good thing to understand, you are a sincere child, you can see from the chess game, you can go straight to the goal if you want to do something, and you will not take a detour, of course, you have a clear goal and a careful thinking is commendable. I don't ask you who taught you chess, if you have something difficult to explain outside in the future, just say that I taught it. Although you are a woman, I think you will have something to achieve in the future. Jiang Qian's words were a bit cloudy, and Chen Jia didn't know where to start, but he didn't refute it.
"Thank you, grandpa!"
"You're still young, it's not a good thing to be sharp, you have to know how to hide outside in the future, understand?"
"Cherish the fate and be taught!"
β¦β¦
Jiang Youchun first arranged for the guards to go to Rongcheng to inform his father to return to the capital quickly, and then turned around and walked towards his mother's courtyard.
"Qin'er, are you telling the truth? That girl went into the house and went to the study? Do you see clearly? Jiang Youchun heard the conversation between his mother and his eldest maid outside the house, but there was no maid at the door, so he also stopped, stood quietly at the door, and did not go inside.
"Yes, madam, it's the girl that day, I heard that the master still wants to accept her as a granddaughter, and specially let the master come back from Rongcheng and hold a ceremony to recognize her relatives!"
"Oh no, what if Chun'er knows that I sent her away with silver?"
"Madam, do you want to ......?" the voice in the room was low.
Outside the house, Jiang Youchun's face was extremely gloomy, as dark as the weather that was about to rain rain.
"However, even if there is no guard, there is no guarantee that the girl will not say anything, it is better to deal with that girl directly!" As soon as Mrs. Jiang finished speaking, Jiang Youchun pushed the door violently and entered.
"I know it too, what should I do?? Will my mother give me a cup of poisoned wine and kill me? Jiang Youchun's heart was like a knife, and he couldn't imagine that his mother would be so ruthless.
"Chun'er, what nonsense are you talking about, how could my mother do such a thing? I'm just afraid you'll be annoyed! Cai ...... "is worthy of being the lady of the four major families who have seen strong winds and waves, Mrs. Jiang saw Jiang Youchun's appearance, although she was frightened, she did not panic.
"Am I going to be angry and want to kill people to solve the problem? When did our Jiang family become so unbearable and vicious? Jiang Youchun angrily interrupted Mrs. Jiang's words.
"Chun'er, you misunderstood, I didn't say I wanted to kill someone, I just discussed with Qin'er to transfer that guard away. I don't worry about that girl, and I'm going to apologize to that girl directly? Seeing that her son was annoyed, Mrs. Jiang hurriedly explained.
"Is that really the case?" Jiang Youchun glared at Qin'er with sharp eyes that could kill.
"It's true, young master, you have wronged Madame. The slave persuaded the lady to transfer the guards away, but the lady felt very uneasy, and still wanted to go to the girl to apologize! Qin'er lowered her head and trembled.
"Humph! Chen Jia is the person that grandpa personally fancies, mother, you can't get used to her, just go through the motions, if you dare to be unfavorable to her, I will report to grandpa and let grandpa deal with it personally! Jiang Youchun let out a long breath and calmed down. Now that my mother already knows, let's prepare for the banquet, according to my grandfather's wishes, it is to make a big special event. Let the whole capital know that Chen Jia is a member of our Jiang family! β
"So important! This girl, oh no, who is Chen Jia? Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but look solemn. Such a grand recognition ceremony shows how much his father-in-law attaches importance to Chen Jia.
"Mother, don't call her this girl in the future, and you can't call her Chen Jia! I'm going to call her daughter! You have an extra girl to be filial to you! Isn't that a happy event? After Jiang Youchun finished speaking, he felt even more blocked in his heart. I'll go back first, and my mother will do what my grandfather asks! β
Jiang Youchun's heart was blocked, and when he went out of the door, he ran into Cheng Hu coming, and couldn't help asking, "Is Chen Jia still in the study?" β
"Chen Jia has already gone back, Chen Jia asked me to return this to the adult, saying that the Taishi also gave her a piece, and this piece of property will be returned to the original owner!" Cheng Hu took the chunzi jade pendant with both hands and handed it to Jiang Youchun. Jiang Youchun took the jade pendant and stroked it lightly with his hand, his eyes were a lot dilated, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" Cheng Hu felt that Jiang Youchun didn't seem quite right. A few more shouts.
Jiang Youchun didn't respond at all, which frightened Cheng Hu.
"My lord, what's wrong with you! My lord! Cheng Hu took Jiang Youchun's two arms and began to shake Jiang Youchun.
"Whew! I'm fine, you can go back! I'll go back to sleep first! After Jiang Youchun finished speaking, his whole body seemed to be drained of his strength, and he staggered towards his room.
"What's the matter, sir? It's like you've lost your soul! Cheng Hu scratched his head, watched Jiang Youchun enter the room, and turned to leave.
β¦β¦
"Chen Jia, is what you said true? Today, the Taishi wants to recognize you as a granddaughter! Cheng Dazhuang couldn't believe it when he heard about it.
Relatives are also relatives, and they will move around each other in the future, so Chen Jia naturally can't hide it from him. So he picked up what he could say and said it again.
"Yes, Dad, why are you so excited! I think it's pretty boring! Chen Jia pouted, listless.
"Master! One person is below ten thousand people, this is the biggest official! Can I not get excited? Cheng Dazhuang's face turned red, and his excitement was beyond words.
"By the way, you hurriedly asked someone to pick up your mother, and the son of the Taishi also rushed over from Rongcheng, and it is estimated that there will be a recognition ceremony after the final of the food competition. I don't know what the Taishi thinks, I have to do a special thing! β
"Taishi's son, isn't that your godfather? If you want to call your godfather in the future, you can't be so ignorant! Cheng Dazhuang said seriously.
"Yes, got it!" Chen Jia nodded.
β¦β¦
Finally arrived on the day of the outing, everyone gathered at Chen Jia's house early in the morning, Chen Jia rode a white horse, brought snacks made by Xiaochan, and brought some water, ready to set off with everyone.
"Chen Jia, didn't Jiang Youchun say that he wouldn't go on an outing together today? Why hasn't he arrived yet? Shi Zunbao was bored to help his black horse comb his mane, "I said I would go together, but I haven't come yet, everyone has to wait for him." Annoying! β
Chen Jia was about to say a word of comfort, but saw Cheng Hu riding over from a distance.
"Chen Jia!" Cheng Hu rode his horse and galloped all the way. "Master Jiang said he wasn't going today. Prepare for your father's confession. The young master also said that he would not come today. β
"That's it!" Chen Jia nodded depressedly. Pouted. "It's really troublesome to hold a confession ceremony!"
"Chen Jia, who do you want to recognize as your righteous grandfather?" When Yang Mingyuan heard the news, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Taishi!" Chen Jia looked at Yang Mingyuan, saw that he was confused, and didn't know how to explain, so he only said: "It's hard to say!" β
"Taishi? Chen Jia, this matter can't be a joke! β
Yang Mingyuan took two more steps closer to confirm with Chen Jia. When Shi Zunbao heard the news, his mouth opened wide and he couldn't speak, and even Jiang Wenhan couldn't help but lean over.
"It's true, Jiang Youchun's father is also coming back from Rongcheng, and the Taishi means that I still want to recognize him as a godfather, it's hard to explain. The recognition ceremony was held after the competition. Aren't we going on an outing today? Since they don't go, let's go on our own! Chen Jia said with a flattering smile.
"Since it's true, then we won't be able to go today!" Yang Mingyuan looked depressed, and raised his head to look at Chen Jia again: "Chen Jia, the Taishi recognizes you as a righteous granddaughter, and also asks the Jiang scholar to rush back from Rongcheng." This is not a trivial matter, and we need to inform our families. See you when we race! After Yang Mingyuan finished speaking, he returned to his horse, turned over on the horse, and rode in the dust!
Seeing this, Shi Zunbao also rode a horse to follow. Jiang Wenhan also rode on his horse and chased after him.
"Chen Jia, then I'll go back too! My lord, I still have something to do! β
Seeing that Cheng Hu was also gone, Chen Jia stood alone at the door and was stunned for a while!
"Well, you're all so irresponsible, what about my dim sum?" Chen Jia was extremely depressed. "Xiaochan's dim sum is good, it can't be wasted, just send it to the elites of my sales team to eat!"
In the next few days, Chen Jia continued to be busy with the food finals, and she instructed her sales team to buy pΓΉ in the capital, prepare for the decoration of the spice shop and the pre-distribution work.
The Hongyun Restaurant, which the four of them are preparing to open after the finals, is also in preparation, recruiting troops and horses to decorate and decorate, fortunately, the Qian family, the Lu family and the Sun family have many reserve talents, and Chen Jia does not have to worry about this part of the restaurant decoration! Qian Yongchang also expressed his understanding after knowing the reason why Chen Jia wanted to recognize Jiang Qian, and appeased Chen Jia to recognize his relatives with peace of mind, and he would take care of it from Grandpa Qian's side!
Jiang Qian sent someone to pick up Chen Jia for lunch every day, and in the afternoon he went to the study to read books and play chess. It's a fulfilling and simple life.
Mrs. Jiang was busy, and occasionally wanted to go to Chen Jia to set up a relationship, hoping that she would not be so embarrassed in the future, but Chen Jia always liked to stay in the study with the old man, or chat with Sun Aoting to talk about things, she always couldn't find a suitable time to speak.
Mrs. Jiang was so angry in her heart. said that she was a goddaughter, but she was a goddaughter who was forced to stuff herself, and she could say two polite words every day when she was eating, how could she be expected to be intimate with herself! Engaging in such a grand confession ceremony, I have been busy with the banquet guest list for the past few days, and everything in the house has to be moved.
Jiang Qian even asked Mrs. Jiang yesterday to get Chen Jia a boudoir, so that Chen Jia could come and stay for a few days occasionally. She just wanted to say something, Jiang Qian immediately said that all the expenses were taken from his account. It was not that she did not open her mouth, so she could only prepare silently.
β¦β¦
"Congratulations, Taishi, I heard that you are going to recognize a godgranddaughter in a few days, my wife has received the invitation, and I will bring my inner son and family to congratulate you!" As soon as Lord Hubu Shangshu Lu came out of the palace gate, he said hello to Jiang Qian.
"Congratulations, congratulations!" Seeing this, the other adults also congratulated Jiang Qian.
"I, Jiang Qian, have the fate to recognize a granddaughter, so naturally I want everyone to be happy and happy. When the time comes, please bring your family members to the house for a glass of thin wine! Jiang Qian laughed when he saw this, and his joy was undisguised!
"Definitely, definitely!"
After Jiang Qian left, the other adults gathered together to discuss.
"What is the origin of this granddaughter recognized by the Taishi?"
"I don't know!"
"I heard that I was only ten years old, and I came from a small place. I don't know about the rest! β
"That's weird!" Everyone didn't know, and they talked about it, but they didn't dare to speculate.
β¦β¦
"Your Majesty, there's something new today!" The eunuch Dexi saw that the emperor was a little tired of reviewing the recital, and hurriedly came up and handed the emperor a cup of tea.
"Tell me about it!"
"I heard that Taishi wants to recognize a goddaughter, and a recognition ceremony will be held after the food competition, and even Jiang University scholars will come from Rongcheng to participate!"
"Oh, that's strange, I really want to see whose daughter can get into the eyes of Master Jiang!" The emperor narrowed his eyes. smiled again and said: "The Jiang family also has a daughter, but she is a little younger!" β
"What the emperor said is very true!" Dexi also smiled and patted the emperor's ass.
"I'm going to ask when it's going to happen, and I'm going to join in the fun!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"By the way, the food contest is tomorrow!"
"The emperor has such a good memory! It's tomorrow! β
"Tomorrow, good tomorrow!"
