Chapter 104: Shock

"It's okay, it's okay."

That cousin was redder than Ah Jiu's face, and he hurriedly waved his hand, the pretty young lady in front of him was more beautiful than any woman he had ever seen, and the fairy was afraid that it was nothing more than that.

After Ah Jiu blessed him, he turned around and entered the door.

The two old ladies sat side by side on the warm kang, because they were sisters, there was a little more similarity between the eyebrows, the aunt and grandmother who married into the Chen family did not have the luck of a grandmother, and worked hard for a lifetime for a living, and then the Mo family became rich, and her life was better.

Because of this, this aunt and grandmother have been clinging to the old lady and stammering everywhere.

The old lady didn't look down on Ah Jiu, and her aunt and grandmother didn't have eyebrows for Ah Jiu, and her eyes weren't eyes, so she was very cold.

After Ah Jiu greeted the old lady in a regular manner, he stood aside with a sincere smile on his lips.

The old lady can't look down on Ah Jiu, but as long as people with long eyes know how good Ah Jiu's appearance is, the first time she saw Ah Jiu, she couldn't help but feel that there was such a handsome person in the world.

"My aunt and grandmother are welcome to come to my house."

Ah Jiu smiled, becoming more and more friendly and sincere, "The days when you live in the house, but if you have anything to say, my mother has been working hard recently, and my mother has handed over all the small things such as food, clothing, and housing in the house to me, I am the first time I have seen my aunt and grandmother, and I feel very close, my father often says that you want to make guests feel at home, so you must not give me politeness." ”

At least let the old lady understand, whose house are they? Who is the master?

Not only was the aunt and the old lady embarrassed, but even the eldest lady and the third lady standing on the side, as well as several cousins, felt uncomfortable.

Eating and living with Mo Guanjie, but not looking down on his most precious young girl? How thick the dough is.

However, since the eldest lady dared to die and didn't leave, she didn't expect to be ashamed because of Ah Jiu's words.

Ah Jiu didn't expect them to suddenly understand self-esteem, just warned them to save them from feeling good about themselves. Father and mother should support them separately.

The old lady raised her eyebrows and said meaningfully: "My old girl is a great blessing, and she will enjoy great wealth in the future." Maybe the second child will have to beg her in the future. ”

"Oh." Ah Jiu nodded flatly, "The icing on the cake." Since my grandmother said so, I have to entertain my aunt's family on behalf of my father, my aunt and grandmother are entering Beijing for the first time, and they will be rich and build their own mansions in the future, so we can also help. ”

"Why didn't you see my third cousin?"

"He's not in good health, so I'll let him rest first."

"Grandmother, third cousin and cousin though are relatives. But after all, he is a man, and he is not suitable for the back house, so it is better to arrange the third cousin and them in the outer courtyard first. ”

"It's not impossible to live in the outer courtyard, your third cousin is noble, and he has been a servant all the way, you have to send the best people to serve, and if you treat them badly, I have to cure you."

"Since my grandmother attaches great importance to my third cousin, I don't dare to arrange it for a junior."

Ah Jiu's eyes flashed, "Grandmother is good at training people. The people around you are all excellent, it is better to send someone from your side to serve the third cousin, you know the slave and maid well. To the third cousin envoy is also assured. ”

As soon as the old lady listened to the transfer of people from her side, she said unhappily: "There is no one in the house? ”

Everyone is gone, who will serve her?

Ah Jiu bowed his head in embarrassment, "Grandmother doesn't know the difficulties of the world, my father doesn't have much money, and he raises a family inside and out, and the manpower in the house is a radish and a pit, today my aunt's family came to the house as a guest, and you attach importance to your third cousin." I'm really hard at arranged. ”

"The second child is a big official, you actually said that he has no silver?"

"Dad's sleeves are breezy. can only count on Yulu and the rest of the foreign wealth. Daddy doesn't stick to it. Ah Jiu's face was upright, "The dowry of the second sister and the third brother is even more untouchable." Recently, money is tight, and there are always relatives who come to the door, and the Mo Mansion looks rich and noble from the outside, but in fact, it is an ordinary official eunuch in the imperial capital. ”

Ah Jiu continued to persuade the old lady, "You have a deep sisterhood with your aunt and grandmother, don't you think you will account too much, your aunt and grandmother will be rich sooner or later, you insist on it first?" ”

"Alright."

The old lady waved her hand, "Don't regret it in the future!" ”

Let Ah Jiu continue to talk, they will all become a burden.

"Look at what you say, you have the benefit of your aunt and grandmother, and you can forget my father and granddaughter? The granddaughter knows that her grandmother's knife mouth and tofu heart hurt my father and me the most. ”

Ah Jiu smiled coquettishly, "Aunt and grandmother must not be polite to grandmother, I drool over the dishes made in the small kitchen in my grandmother's yard." When my aunt and grandmother first arrived, my grandmother entertained my aunt and grandmother with eight bowls unique to the imperial capital. ”

Eight big bowls are worth a lot of money once, and the Jiang family has long stipulated that whoever wants to use good dishes has to take the silver himself.

These hundred or ten taels of silver are enough to make the old lady's flesh hurt for a long time.

Ah Jiu knew the old lady's unstoppable personality, and seeing that the old lady really showed her reluctance to show pain, Ah Jiu took the initiative to give the old lady a tea cup and whispered in her ear: "Aunt and grandmother will be rich and noble in the future, grandmother, this is a good opportunity to invest in advance, no matter how close the blood is, you have to get along with each other to be like a family." ”

"I'm going to eat, I'm going to eat eight big bowls."

The little boy in the courtyard slipped into the house at some point, and shouted reluctantly: "I want to eat, I want to eat." ”

The old lady could only nod her head and agree, and the eldest lady and others also felt happy in their hearts, Jiang's diligent and thrifty housekeeping, most of the meals were vegetarian, tofu and the like, even if there was only one fish and meat, it was indeed a good thing to improve the food without having to pay for their own money.

"I still have to serve my mother, and my grandmother and aunt have my aunt and other people by my side, so I will leave first."

The old lady waved her hand weakly, grinding her teeth secretly on Ah Jiu's back, and sooner or later she would regret it, "The second daughter-in-law is happy again, no one sent a letter to the Lan girl of Nianci'an?" Did the Auxiliary Duke ever know? ”

"Old lady, this is ...... It's not good to talk to Fu Guogong. ”

The eldest lady was willing to see Jiang's jokes, but she couldn't make it too obvious, "Wait for Sister Lan to come back." "You don't have to talk to your mother about today's affairs," Ah Jiu told Lingyun, "It's best to see the third cousin clearly." ”

"The slave understands."

Lingyun thought for a moment and asked in a low voice, "You don't think about him?" ”

"That person is my cousin, he shouldn't be more than twenty years old, but you see that his hands are full of calluses, and he doesn't have a good life, I'm afraid that he farmed at a very young age, and he keeps looking at his little cousin, I think the third cousin is either in extremely bad health, or ...... A lazy man. ”

The cousin of the Chen family seems to be loyal and honest, and Ah Jiu has a good impression of him. "If the third cousin has a bad temperament, it is enough to harm the old lady. My aunt and grandmother rushed all the way to the capital, and I always felt that something was going to happen......"

Ah Jiu sighed, "The mountain rain is coming, the wind is full of buildings, and the blessings and disasters are unpredictable." ”

Xiao Hua is really not good, she has done what she promised him, but Xiao Hua has not moved, which makes Ah Jiu suspect that she has found the wrong partner.

Within two days, Ah Jiu heard one after another that the third cousin had taken in two maids in a row, and dragged the old lady's favorite maid named Rouge to bed, but Cousin Chen was very obedient, blushing when talking to the woman, always helping his subordinates feed the horses or something, and doing some rough work within his ability.

The third cousin, with the connivance of Mrs. Prison, acted more and more arrogantly.

In addition to guarding the Jiang family, Ah Jiu made people suggest that Xiao Hua should do it quickly, after Xiao Hua received the message, his face was sad, he used to think it was a simple matter, but Mo Sanye and Uncle Mo are too slippery, the other is too honest, and their temperaments are completely extreme, such people are the most difficult to deal with.

Xiao Hua is not a person who does not keep his promises, and he can't really put the two masters of the Mo family to death, so he can only step up the arrangements.

On this day, Ah Jiu helped Jiang to go to the garden to relax, and met Nangong Yue pulling Cousin Chen's cuffs and saying something, Ah Jiu saw that Cousin Chen's face was flushed, and he didn't know how to refuse, but Nangong Yue had affection in her eyes, as if she had a deep love for the man in front of her.

"This ......"

It's so strange, how could Nangong Yue fall in love with Cousin Chen?

Jiang patted Ah Jiu's hand and whispered: "Your eldest aunt wants to marry the girl she gave birth to to him, Sister Yue is afraid that she is in a hurry, so she took the initiative to confess, I heard that the seventh girl was also forced by your third aunt to get close to him." ”

This, even more strange.

Ah Jiu couldn't think of a dark-skinned farmer who couldn't think of how he became a golden beetle's son-in-law? Could it be that they all fell in love with Cousin Chen's honesty and loyalty? "Grandmother didn't stop it?"

The old lady has always regarded her granddaughter's marriage as a bargaining chip for interests, and the Chen family's current few acres of land are still funded by the Mo family, even if it is a relative, the old lady will never look down on Cousin Chen.

"It's not bad to talk about him alone, but he can't read, and it will be difficult for him to get ahead in the future."

Jiang rarely asks about the back house recently, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't know anything, since Ah Jiu doesn't want her to worry about it, she pretends not to know anything, especially recently Mo Guanjie has been pestering her tightly, and she has no heart to think about anything else.

No matter how loyal and honest this person is, Ah Jiu won't like it.

"I don't dare to underestimate anyone anymore."

Ah Jiu stuck out his tongue, "Mother, grandmother may be in the next big game of chess." ”

The old lady's various abnormalities made Ah Jiu have to be vigilant.

"Miss Nine!"

Lingyun walked over quickly and saluted the Jiang family first, "The slave has something to do." ”

Jiang said trustingly: "You go and get busy, I'll let someone help me go back to the house." ”

"Hmm." Ah Jiu asked the most appropriate maid to help Jiang leave, and turned around and asked Lingyun, "What's the matter?" ”

"The eldest lord was arrested by the imperial capital yamen, saying that he cheated the merchant of the bank's money, which was worth tens of thousands of taels, and the family refused to live or die, so he had to sue the court, and the third master was also secretly arrested by the yamen because of the bribery."

Lingyun looked in the direction of the old lady's room, "The eldest lady and the third lady have already led their children to the old lady to cry. ”

These two cases, whether they are big or small, the old lady can't afford them at all, and Mo Guanjie ...... With his rank, it is better not to ask than to ask.

"Miss Nine, are you unhappy?"

"Lingyun." Ah Jiu pursed his lips, "Heaven's will is like a knife, no matter how careful you calculate, you will inevitably be tricked by God." (To be continued)
