Xianglan looked straight at Jiang Xiyun's eyes, the two stared at each other for a moment, and she suddenly realized that Jiang Xiyun was not just misunderstanding that she was competing with her, but that she was not tempted, Jiang Xiyun's expression was calm, but her eyes were complicated, revealing the sound in her heart.

Xianglan smiled and said, "Miss Xi, it's still what I just said, you are the daughter of a scholar, and I was originally just the daughter of a slave from a family. Even if the girl is a concubine, but it is also brocade clothes and jade food, the pampered flowers in the Golden Pavilion and Silver Building, I am just a weed growing in the stream, this one alone, you and I don't know how many mountains are missing, why should the girl bother herself? ”

Jiang Xiyun looked at Xianglan calmly with a pair of eyes, and said slowly: "Miss Xianglan, you are beautiful and talented, why are you so humble." The expression is indifferent, but there is a hidden aggressiveness.

Xianglan took a step back, lowered her eyes, and said meaningfully: "Miss Xi, the maids are still here, you have always been an innocent, amiable and likable girl, and my wife likes you very much." ”

Jiang Xiyun was stunned, and immediately understood that Xianglan was warning her to be more restrained, and when she opened her eyes, she saw that there were a few maids cleaning up the remnants not far away, and Tan Luhua was standing in the pavilion, glancing here from time to time. Somehow, her momentum weakened, and she took half a step back, saying, "My cousin and I are indeed in love." ”

Suddenly, Lin Jinlou shouted: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you know what to wait for?" ”

Xianglan was excited, turned her head and saw Lin Jinlou standing at the end of the winding path, so she said to Jiang Xiyun: "Uncle called me, so I will leave." Then he turned and left.

Jiang Xiyun turned her head, only to see Xianglan lift her skirt and trot to Lin Jinlou, Lin Jinlou pulled his legs and left, walked a few steps and stopped and didn't know what to ask, Xianglan felt something from her sleeve, Lin Jinlou took it, unfolded the colorful rope and put it on her neck, Jiang Xiyun looked intently, and saw that the thing was Fangcai's magnolia pendant. Lin Jinlou said a few more words, Xianglan only hung her head and listened, Lin Jinlou turned around and walked a few steps back to look, as if he thought Xianglan was walking slowly, he pulled her wrist and strode away.

The breeze rose again, but this time it was blown on her face, which only made Jiang Xiyun feel annoyed, Ruoqing walked over, craned her neck and looked at it, and saw that Lin Jinlou's figure had already disappeared, so she said softly: "Girl, let's go back?" ”

Jiang Xiyun let out a long breath, at this time she only felt exhausted, and a wave of grievance welled up in her heart, she quietly covered her face with her sleeve, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and went with Ruoqing.

In Mengfang's courtyard, the doors and windows of the main house where Jiang's mother lived were closed, and only Jiang's mother, Jiang Feiyun and Jiang Xiyun were left in the house. Jiang's mother's cough became more and more severe, Jiang Feiyun was busy waiting for Shunqi, Jiang Xiyun was kneeling on the ground, hanging her head low.

Jiang's mother coughed once, her face was already full of tears, Jiang Feiyun wiped her face with a handkerchief, Jiang's mother pushed it away, pointed at Jiang Xiyun with a trembling hand and said: "You bastard thing who smeared the door, who let you write poems and cheat, who let you go to Lin Jinlou's concubine!" ”

Jiang Xiyun looked blank and said, "The granddaughter knows that she is wrong. ”

Mother Jiang's tears rolled down, she gasped, and said: "It's just a matter of writing poems, a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, and it is not wrong to be proficient in teasing Fengyue, but what is that little concubine!" Born from a slave seed, no matter how beautiful the color is, it's just a thing. What is your identity, what is her identity, you are in a hurry to find her, she is not worthy of lifting your shoes! ”

Jiang Xiyun paused and said: "She is not only beautiful, but also indeed talented, by no means comparable to ordinary concubines, to be honest, her granddaughter still admires her a little." ”

Jiang Mu sneered: "Are you afraid of her?" ”

Jiang Xiyun said loudly: "How can I be afraid of her? Let her be clever and skillful, and she is a concubine who can't be on a high platform after all! ”

Mother Jiang let out a long sigh and said, "Xiya'er, you have always been the most clever and steady, why are you so unbreathable today?" ”

Jiang Feiyun hurriedly brought a cup of tea, served Jiang's mother and took a bite, and said: "Grandmother is angry, and the fifth sister also couldn't hold back for a while. He whispered softly to Jiang Xiyun: "Big sister has a thorough understanding with you, nine out of ten of you have done this, I heard that the Lin family is looking for a suitable official media." Sister, you are too anxious, what about Chen Xianglan, can she still pass you in the future? Marry in and slowly clean up. ”

Mother Jiang coughed vigorously again, Jiang Feiyun hurriedly brought the phlegm box, Mother Jiang spit out, took another sip of tea and rinsed her mouth, and then said: "There are elders who come forward to call the shots in everything, and it is not your turn to move your tongue in person." Don't you forget, your grandmother is still there, isn't it an ornament? Even though the Lin family is a high-ranking family, I can't let them wronged you! It's just that you shouldn't go to Chen Xianglan alone, if it reaches Lin Jinlou's ears, won't the Lin family think that you are not virtuous? ”

A wry smile slowly appeared on Jiang Xiyun's face, his knees rubbed a few steps forward, stepped forward to hold Jiang's mother's hand, and said, "Grandmother, my granddaughter knows that you love me, but in this situation, even if I have tens of millions of grievances, I still have to marry in." ”

Mother Jiang was stunned, her heart sank, and she said with a tense face: "Does marrying into the Lin family make you so wronged?" ”

"No, I'm not aggrieved." Jiang Xiyun said calmly, "People like ours can make the Lin family take a fancy to it, and the plan is to climb high, and Lin Jinlou is a hero among the people, young and promising, it is rare that at his age, he doesn't even have a concubine under his knees, there is only one favorite concubine in the backyard, and the family that my grandmother chose at first is not as good as the Lin family, isn't it?" ”

Jiang Feiyun couldn't help but speak: "Since that's the case, then how can you pay it back?"

Jiang Xiyun took a deep breath and said, "At first, I only thought that my cousin and aunt fell in love with me because Lin Jinlou doted on the beautiful concubine, and I was afraid that there would be an ugly incident of spoiling the concubine and killing his wife in the future. Later, I gradually realized that something was wrong, Lin Jinlou promoted Chen Xianglan in everything, although my cousin and aunt didn't like it, she didn't object! Originally, I only said that she didn't want to disobey her son, but later I heard Chunling, the maid in Changchun Hall, say that it seems that Chen Xianglan has a life-saving grace to her cousin! ”

Jiang Mu and Jiang Feiyun were startled, and said in unison: "What? ”

Jiang Xiyun shook his head and said, "What the hell is going on, the one named Chunling doesn't know." It's just these few accidents that I know that the Lin family is interested in me, not just for me to cure Chen Xianglan, but for me to tolerate her! Chen Xianglan was born beautiful and had good means, but she had two thorns in her eyes, Lin Er's grandmother and Lin Si's girl, and Sister Qi was also full of praise for her, not to mention that Lin Jinlou actually dismissed all the concubines for her, and still kept her in the main room. Grandmother, when I marry in, I may only be a puppet and an ornament! ”

Jiang's mother and Jiang Feiyun's hearts were shocked, and they were speechless.

Jiang Xiyun choked up and said: "I know that my grandmother loves me and wants to take care of everything for me, but now that I am stronger than others, I have to marry the Lin family, is it possible that if I marry someone in the future, I will always bring out my mother's family to support me?" Besides, I am not convinced in my heart, why? Why do you have to accept your fate before you discuss your relatives, and you are willing to be that puppet and that ornament in the future! ”

Jiang Xiyun's expression was suddenly resolute, and her eyes were as bright as burning candles: "People are not grass and trees, which woman doesn't want her husband to sing with her wife, Jin Se and Ming, why pretend to be high, pretend to be virtuous, the Lin family hopes that I will be a virtuous and generous wife, filial piety to my parents, serving my husband, taking care of my concubines, taking care of my concubines, my life of brocade clothes and food, watching my husband hug left and right, pampering my aunt, and boiling my head in the inner house." Even if I have to do it for the future of my family, I am not reconciled! ”

The two people in the room were dumbfounded, and Jiang Feiyun stammered: "Fifth sister, I have to talk about this in the house behind closed doors, and if I say it, I will be smacked!" ”

Jiang Xiyun burst into tears and said: "My daughter's family lives too hard in the world, and the family looks at the scenery of this marriage, but I know that when I am good, the family will be stained, and I will have grievances in the future, so I have to swallow it alone, my grandmother loves me, but who can care about me for a lifetime?" The family gave birth to me and raised me, and now I should make a contribution, I am naturally duty-bound, but I should not sit back and wait for death, just now when Lin Jinlou gave the magnolia pendant to Chen Xianglan, I have already made up my mind, while the marriage has not yet been decided, how can I earn it for myself, so I went to find Chen Xianglan, she covered me several times, must have a hostile intention in her heart, she told me this to Lin Jinlou, just to see his attitude. The Lin family also recognized this family matter, so they should also knock Lin Jinlou, if they really want to marry this family, they should not raise the concubine to such a point, and they should make a gesture in the future. Although our Jiang family has a request for them, it is not arbitrary to knead and flatten. No matter how rare this family business is, you shouldn't put your status too lowly! ”

Mother Jiang trembled and stretched out her hand, pulled Jiang Xiyun up and rubbed it into her arms, and choked up: "Okay, good boy, you are so brave and decisive, you don't lose a man, grandmother has to give you this face when she gives up her old life." You are right, why should we retreat to such a point, the matter is undecided, and we must fight first. ”

Jiang Feiyun hesitated: "What if we can't fight?" ”

"Then I'll accept my fate!" Jiang Xiyun leaned on Jiang's mother's arms, her eyes were clear, "It's just that if you don't give in, how can I be willing!" His Lin family is noble, and we also have requests for others, but the daughter of the Jiang family should not be so light! ”

Outside the main room, Qingfen hid behind the curtain and probed her brain, and saw that there were two maids guarding the door, Tassel and Ruoqing, so she had to turn back, Jiang Danyun was sitting on the kang outside, holding a target mirror lazily shining on herself, Qingfen whispered in her ear: "There are people guarding the door, I can't hear what I say." ”

Jiang Danyun sneered: "Good words don't go back to people, there are no good words, what is the use of guarding me like a thief?" Didn't you let people slap their faces today? I'm not happy to hear what is said in the house, so let's go out for a walk. After that, he got up and went out with Qingfen, thinking about it, the Lin family didn't have much to go to, but today Tan Luhua rehearsed Jiang Xiyun once, but secretly gave her a breath, and went to Kang Shouju. Alone.

As soon as the two of them left, there was a knock on the door outside the main room of Mengfang Courtyard, and the tassel said at the door: "Old lady, Uncle Lin sent someone to deliver something." ”

After hearing this, everyone hurriedly wiped away their tears, sorted out their grooming and hair accessories, and pulled the corners of their clothes, Jiang's mother hurriedly said: "Please!" As soon as the door opened, Chunling walked in with two little girls, both holding the material in their hands. Chunling greeted with a spring breeze on his face, and said: "As soon as the uncle went back, he first ordered to send gifts to Mengfangyuan, these two satin horses were for the old lady to tailor, these three horses were for the three girls, and the other two horses were for the two sisters who did not come to the Lin family." Putting things on the table, he took out a cloisonné enamel locket, handed it forward and said: "This is a ring, only five girls have it, but no one else has it!" ”

Jiang Mu took it and opened it to take a look, only to see that it was a ring with red gold and beads, pearlescent and round, very literary. Jiang Mu handed it to Jiang Xiyun with a smile and said, "Look, this is a good thing." ”

Chunling hurriedly answered: "No, although the uncle is generous, such a good thing is not something that ordinary people can let him give." ”

Jiang's mother felt better, smiled faintly, and ordered someone to reward Chunling. Jiang Xiyun personally sent people outside the door, avoided everyone, and asked softly, "How happened to the eldest cousin when he went back?" ”

Chunling said: "It's nothing, I ordered Xianglan a few words and went to the front, and asked Imperial Doctor Zhang to come again." ”

Jiang Xiyun said strangely: "Imperial Doctor Zhang? Who's sick in the house? ”

Chunling said: "Hey, no one is sick, it's Xianglan, I don't see joy, so the uncle specially invited a doctor to take a look at her, and there was no movement after taking dozens of pairs of medicine, and the uncle was impatient, so he wanted to invite the doctor to come and change the recipe to eat." ”

Jiang Xiyun's tightly knit brows stretched out, patted Chunling's shoulder and said, "I know, I have to thank you, if you didn't say that you want to make knee pads, I wouldn't be able to do such a flattering thing." As he spoke, he took out a red envelope from his sleeve and gave it to her.

Chunling smiled: "I just mentioned it in passing, it's just that the girl Bingxue is smart." He quietly pushed the red envelope back.

Jiang Xiyun said with a smile: "Don't see outside, there are places that will depend on you in the future." ”

Chunling accepted the red envelope after listening to it, and said with a smile: "The girl is worthy of being born in everyone, and her actions are atmospheric, not as good as those little noses and small eyes. "After that, he took someone away.

Back in Changchun Hall, Chunling returned to the book dye, and when she was about to enter the house, she only heard the fan painted in the house: "What about Sister Chunling?" Grandma just came to her and asked her to send two boxes of fresh fruits to Mrs. Wang's house in the name of the uncle. ”

Xiao Juan sneered and said, "Are you looking for her?" Fang just snatched Lingqing's work, and took the ruler and sent it to Mengfangyuan like a dog. People are now 'in Cao Ying's heart in Han', and they plan to climb high branches! ”

Lingqing sighed and said: "I don't know what she thinks, my aunt treats her well, and she is allowed to do most decent work, and she mutters all day long." If I were the master, I would have been driven out long ago when I saw her virtue. ”

Lingsu said: "She is not happy in her heart, she used to be so beautiful, she can even be the master of her aunt, and now who still uses what she said as an arrow." ”

Chunling's face was flushed with anger, and she lifted the curtain and stomped into the house, and the room suddenly fell silent. Chunling sneered and looked around at the people in the room, everyone ignored her, only buried their heads in work, and even Xue Ning, who could say a few words to her, didn't say a word, and only used small silver tweezers to pick walnuts.

Chunling returned to the back room with a calm face, which maid she had a quarrel with before, as long as she shook her hand and made trouble, Xianglan would mediate and persuade her, but then Xianglan stopped caring and only handed over the book to dye the cooking, so that she did not suffer several lessons in vain. She gradually understood that Xianglan was no longer the trembling and disheartened little girl who first entered the Lin family - she had really become the master of her own head, but it was difficult for her to bend down this waist.

Although Xianglan never treats her badly when she is rewarded, she often asks her to cheer for her, but this set of things she looks at is nothing more than a coy attitude, if she really thinks about the old feelings, she should know what she has in mind, and she should let her lead the affairs of the big and small, why let Xiaojuan and the like climb on her head!

It wasn't until the Jiang family came that she saw hope. Jiang Xiyun was born in a famous family, sweet and lovely, honest and honest, she has always smiled sweetly at her, gave a lot of rewards, and loved to tell jokes and funny, especially the maids around her, who are far more pleasing than Xiaojuan and painting fans, and always shout "sister" to her, she gradually got closer to the Jiang family, and also told Xue Ning and a few little girls how much Jiang Xiyun had benefits.

When Shuran learned that she was furious, she was punished for standing under the porch with a basin of water for an afternoon, and the little girls who came and went all pointed at her, and even Xue Ning stayed away from her since then. This is a great shame, she has simply taken refuge in Jiang Xiyun since then - everyone knows that Jiang Xiyun is the daughter-in-law of the Qin family, and the good birds naturally choose wood to rest, and when Jiang Xiyun marries in the future and becomes the master of the house, she will be promoted to a close confidant, so she will have to give birth to a few books and small juan, so that they can all take a good look!

Chunling didn't mention it for the time being, but said that Tan Luhua was busy for a long time before returning to Kangshouju, and when he entered the house, he saw Lin Jinxuan writing big characters in front of the bookcase, so he said: "Second master, don't always stand, write for a while, sit for a while, go back and stay up, you shouldn't sleep well at night." ”

Lin Jinxuan smiled: "Where am I so useless, you come and see, which of these words is good." He asked her about the Poetry Society.

Tan Luhua frowned and said, "Don't mention it, it all made the little hooves from the Jiang family ruined." He said to Lin Jinxuan for a long time and a short time, and said, "Does the eldest brother really want to marry the Jiang family?" ”

Lin Jinxuan said: "This is all the idea of the elders, we can't be the master, we will pass ours, they will pass theirs, you and I can't shorten it." ”

Tan Luhua snorted: "If she is going to die, she will not suffer a loss, and she will not be able to blow any pillow wind with her eldest brother, and turn around to instigate discord between your brothers." ”

As he was talking, Cai Ming came in and said, "Second grandma, Miss Dan is here." ”

Tan Luhuaqi said: "What is she doing here?" "Get up and go out to greet him, and order the maid to arrange the fine tea fruit. The two sat down, Jiang Danyun also wanted to make friends with Tan Luhua, and deliberately said some good things, Tan Luhua did not have a bad feeling towards him, the two also chatted speculatively for a while, Tan Luhua specially ordered the maid to carry out the piano of her mother's marriage and ask Jiang Danyun to play.

The two laughed and became more and more harmonious. Tan Luhua took a sip of tea, and suddenly sighed: "Sister Dan, if I say something that shouldn't be said, don't worry about it, or don't say it." ”

Jiang Danyun smiled: "It's okay, second cousin-in-law, you can say it." ”

Tan Luhua said earnestly: "I see that my sister is a very knowledgeable, upright and virtuous person, how can I have such a little sister?" Tsk, they were all born and raised by a father, and they are a little worse. I'd rather my sister be my sister-in-law! ”

This sentence hit Jiang Danyun's heart, she blushed suddenly, pretended to be angry and glanced at Tan Luhua and said, "What did the second cousin-in-law say!" He sighed again, "How can I have a fifth sister who is so happy that my cousin likes her so much." ”

Tan Luhua said: "I shouldn't say anything, my mother-in-law is also dizzy and recognizes stones as gold." ”

This sentence hit Jiang Danyun's heart again, she sighed and said: "I guess that the second cousin-in-law is an extraordinary person, my little sister, looking at kindness, has never suffered losses, I don't need to mention how many grievances I have suffered since I was a child, and now even good family affairs are close to her." But what's the use of your fiery eyes, now this family affair is going to be ordered. ”

Tan Luhua sneered: "It's also Sister Dan who is too good-natured, if it's me, even if it's not my turn to do this good thing, I can't allow her to be so proud!" ”

Before he could say a word, there was a sudden uproar, Hua and Dan were shocked, only to hear Si Luo's hoarse voice and exhaustion: "I know, you lack a father and a young mother, a slut with bad eyes, you are jealous that the second master trusts me, and you have to kill me!" ”

Caifeng shouted, "Let go!" Let go! He screamed again.

Others persuaded: "Stop fighting! Stop it! ”

Tan Luhua frowned, forced a smile and said to Jiang Danyun: "Sister sit down first, I'll go see what's going on." "I got up and went out. I saw Caifeng and Siluo fighting in the courtyard, their hairpins were scattered, their clothes were disheveled, and several maids were fighting on the side.

Siluo and his party cried and said: "You slut is jealous of my affection with the second master, and you actually use such indiscriminate means, I will carry you to the end today, and go to the lord of Hades to distinguish clearly!" "Go and catch Caifeng again.

Caifeng said while hiding: "Nonsense, squirting feces all over your mouth, you are framed, my aunt and grandmother are not finished with you!" ”

Tan Luhua shouted angrily: "Stop me!" There are no rules! ”

This voice was like "a bird enters the forest and a hundred birds are pressed", and everyone fell silent and knelt down.

It turns out that there is a reason for this. Tan Luhua is a woman who is easily moved, and Dai Rong is a veteran, several times, Tan Luhua is desperate, and obeys Dai Rong's words, she is greedy by nature, but she is willing to take a large amount of money to Dai Rong. Dai Rong took a lot of silver money from her, and gave her some less valuable hairpin rings and rouge gouache. Tan Luhua regarded it as a treasure, and only felt that Dai Rong was worthy of her deep love.

Zhao Yuechan ordered Dai Rong to give Tan Luhua the medicine to cut off the heirs, and let her give it to Xianglan to eat, promising all kinds of benefits. Dai Rong coaxed Tan Luhua to do it, but she never thought that Tan Luhua was a little righteous, and said to Caifeng: "Since I married into the Lin family, from the master to the slave, everyone looks down on people, and they step on me behind their backs, only Xianglan looks at me highly, and keeps sending things one after another, and always persuades me with good words, how can I give her this medicine, you throw it for me when I turn around, and I will go back to Dai Lang, and I will say that the medicine has been given to Xianglan to eat, and there is no news about her stomach now." After that, he wrapped the small satin wrapped in the pill and gave it to Caifeng.

This Caifeng also has a calculation in his heart. It turned out that Tan Luhua loved Dai Rong wholeheartedly, but she didn't want Lin Jinxuan to get close, so she said to Caifeng that after a while, she would make the decision to open Caifeng's face and raise her to be Lin Jinxuan's aunt, Caifeng was naturally happy. But Lin Jinxuan had a personal maid named Siluo in the house before, which was very popular with Aunt Yin, and Aunt Yin blew the wind with Lin Jinxuan from time to time, asking him to take Siluo into the room.

For a while, Caifeng and Siluo said goodbye, both of them were pungent and spicy who refused to suffer, and they were unhappy several times, Caifeng was ruthless, and said to Caiping behind his back: "Siluo's little hooves are hateful, I have a medicine here to cut off children and grandchildren, and I gave her one by Ming'er, even if the second master lifted her, she couldn't lay eggs, and she was rubbed for a lifetime!" "I also showed the bag of medicine to the color screen.

The color screen is the same as the mouth of the honey-bellied sword, pretending to be better with Caifeng, but in fact, she is jealous that she is valued by Tan Luhua, so she turned her head and instigated the two tongues, and told Siluo about it.

Seeing Tan Luhua coming, he knelt on the ground and pulled the corner of Tan Luhua's clothes and cried: "The second grandmother wants to be the master for me!" Caifeng's little hooves are black-hearted, and they want to give me a chance to cut off their children and grandchildren! ”

Caifeng also knelt on the ground, and said with a pale face: "Second grandmother believes that she is talking nonsense!" ”

Siro cried, "How am I talking nonsense? He took out the pack of pills from his arms, handed it to Tan Luhua and said, "This is from under Caifeng's pillow, she still dares to deny it, Sister Caiping has already sued me!" ”

As soon as Tan Luhua saw the little satin purse, the temples on her head immediately jumped up, and she was so angry that she knocked the purse in Siluo's hand away, and glared at Caifeng fiercely, Caifeng knew that she had done something wrong, and shrank her head.

Cai Ping never expected that Siluo would be so breathless, she didn't stop it and made such a fuss, she couldn't help but tremble with fright, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "There is no such thing, second grandma, this is all Siluo's mouth full of nonsense!" ”

Siro pulled his throat and said: "I'm telling the truth, if this is the case, ask a doctor to test this medicine and find out!" ”

Jiang Danyun lay on the windowsill and looked at it clearly, although she still wanted to see the excitement here, but she also knew that it was not appropriate to stay any longer, so she greeted the green pothos and walked out quietly along the root of the wall with Qingfen, halfway through, she suddenly saw a small satin purse in front of her, and took a closer look, it was the "medicine to cut off children and grandchildren" that Fang Cai Qian Luo kept shouting, Tan Luhua stretched out his hand and flew away, and landed next to a stone bench in a courtyard.

Jiang Danyun wanted to pretend not to see it, but somehow, he remembered Tan Luhua's words in his ears: "It's also Sister Dan who is too good-natured, if it's me, even if this good family affair can't be on my head, I can't allow her to be so proud!" As if a ghost had sent a ghost, she slowly bent down, pretended to pick up the fan that had fallen on the ground, and quietly held the packet of medicine in the palm of her hand.
