No one slept well this night, and when they had dinner the next morning, they saw the shadows that could not be hidden under each other's eyes, and several people felt very uncomfortable, even the fourth girl, Jiang Jiao, knew that things were difficult to do, and poked the rice grains in the bowl with bamboo chopsticks, and had no appetite.

It's easy to use, Jiang Yan broke the dull atmosphere, and said: "I have almost embroidered that pair of pillows, and I can find a reliable one when I turn around, so I can sell it on behalf of the family." ”

Tang nodded, his heart like a knife. She discussed with Qiao's mother for most of the night but didn't find a suitable way, no matter how she looked, she wanted to send Jiang Yan there. With such a talented and sensible daughter, how can she give up?

Tears rolled down Tang's eyes.

Jiang Yanqiang smiled: "Mother, why are you crying again." ”

Jiang Jiao hugged Tang's arm and said with a suffocated mouth: "Mother, don't cry." ”

Jiang Chenfeng's green shadow is the heaviest at the moment, seeing that his mother and sisters are so sad, he really can't wait to immediately pick up a knife and slaughter Huo Ying's dog thief! Even if he risked his life, he would not let the eldest sister be wronged.

Jiang Yu stood leaning against the window lattice, and when she saw Jiang Chenfeng's evil eyes, she vaguely guessed what he was thinking, so she slowly approached and stood beside him.

At this moment, Sister Yin outside said in a loud voice: "Madam, Miss Du San is here." ”

"Mother, it's a kite." Jiang Yu smiled, at this time, she was the only one who dared to come to the door.

Du Mingyuan is her close friend, and her father Du Yi is the judge of Shuntianfu. Du Yi is close friends with her father Jiang Xuewen. Originally, Du Mingyuan often came and went, and her dignified and gentle temperament should prefer the gentle and generous eldest sister, but she was most closely related to her, the notorious "Hedong Lion" with a completely different personality.

"Mother, I'll go and invite the kite in." Jiang Yu retreated.

Tang Shi hurriedly wiped his tears, and took Jiang Yan's handkerchief to wipe his face.

After a while, I saw Jiang Wei holding a girl of medium height, plump body, wearing lotus leaf green muslin white rabbit fur and a big collar to come in. The girl wore a bun, a small pink palace flower on each side, her face covered with a light pink veil, and a pair of flexible almond eyes and curved willow eyebrows were exposed, which looked very bright.

"Aunt is well." As soon as he entered the door, Du Mingyuan gave Tang a dignified salute.

"Sister Kite, get up, get up, how is your mother?" Tang got up and put his hands on his hands.

Du Mingyuan got up and said with a smile: "Mother is very good, but the family is busy with things. It was only in the past two days that I embroidered the sub-ledger and handed it in, and then I asked my mother for permission to come and see the girl. While speaking, he said hello to Jiang Yan, Jiang Chenfeng and Jiang Jiao, and Jiang Yan and several people hurriedly returned the salute.

After the juniors saluted each other, Du Mingyuan affectionately held Jiang Yan's arm: "Auntie, I haven't seen her for a few days, can you talk to her?" ”

"Go, your little sister will have something to say." Tang smiled lovingly, and it could be seen that he liked Du Mingyuan very much.

Jiang Yu and Du Mingyuan went to the bedroom hand in hand, and Tang instructed Qiao's mother: "Prepare refreshments and send them, don't neglect Sister Kite." ”

"Yes, ma'am."

When Qiao's mother was preparing the refreshments, Jiang Yu had already pulled Du Mingyuan to sit on the warm kang near the window.

Du Mingyuan pulled the veil casually, and with concern on her round face without powder, she took Jiang Yan's hands and said, "Girl, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine." Jiang Wei smiled.

Du Mingyuan pinched her tender pink cheeks distressedly, "Look at your dark circles." I know that your family is having a hard time these days. Isn't there any news from my uncle yet? ”

Jiang Wei shook her head.

Du Mingyuan sighed. As he spoke, he took out a half-new bag from his sleeve, loosened his mouth, and poured the contents on the table. Jiang Yu took a closer look, in addition to a few ingots of broken silver, there were two small gold ingots and two silver ingots in the fifth son Dengke!

"It's time for your family to use money." When Du Mingyuan spoke, he glanced back, and saw through the crack in the window that his personal maid Tonghua was being pulled by Jiang Yan's maid Bingsong to talk in the courtyard, so he lowered his voice and continued: "These are my bodies, if you put them away, maybe they will be useful." Don't let Tonghua see it, she wants to know the truth, and she will go to my mother to complain as soon as possible. ”

"Kite......" Jiang Yan was moved, holding Du Ming's hand, only to find that the pair of jade bracelets on her original wrist were missing, frowning and asking in surprise: "Where are your bracelets?" ”

Du Mingyuan's eyes were a little evasive, "That thing is precious, I'm afraid of bumping into ......"

"It's your mother's relic, and you never left it before."

Du Mingyuan's biological mother died of illness less than a year after giving birth to her, and now there is a stepmother at home, and the stepmother gave birth to a son and daughter, although she still has two brothers to rely on, but life is not good after all, and Lord Du's family is just an ordinary and solid family.

Looking at the silver ingots on the table, Jiang Yu made up her mind: "Kite, what about the ticket?" ”

Du Mingyuan pursed her lips in a weak heart, and seemed to accept her fate for a while, she couldn't fool Jiang Yan. "Girl, what are you doing so keenly. Okay, okay, I won't lie to you, I did make those bracelets, although they are my mother's relics, but now that your father is in prison, your family is about to collapse, where can I stand idly by? If that cold thing could really help save my uncle, it would be worth it. ”

Jiang Yu lowered her long eyelashes, and the sparkling glitter in her eyes was hidden.

Seeing her like this, Du Mingyuan was afraid that she would be sad, so she diverted the topic: "I actually went to Cheng'er just now, but Cheng'er didn't know what she had eaten these days, and she went on the gong bucket twice while talking, I saw that she was inconvenient, so I asked her not to move around and rest, and she also asked her to bring you a good one, saying that she would come to see you when she was better." ”

Jiang Yu nodded knowingly when she heard this.

Like Du Mingkite, Ye Cheng is also their handkerchief. The Ye family has a deep foundation in Kyoto, and Lord Ye is tired of being a member of the criminal department, and he is very sociable, and he has a lot of connections in the court. Xu is family background is better, Ye Cheng's heart is also higher, and compared with Du Mingyuan, he will be more interested in the advantages and avoid the disadvantages.

Now that the Jiang family is in trouble, Ye Cheng is afraid that he will affect his mother's family, which is understandable.

Seeing that Jiang Yu was not angry, Du Mingyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You said a few days ago that you were going to ask Huo Ying's dog thief again, will this be done?" ”

Jiang Yu pondered for a moment before she said, "Huo Ying has taken a fancy to my eldest sister as a concubine. ”

"What!!" Du Ming stood up and scolded: "That dog thief is simply crazy and delusional!" ”

But after scolding, she sat down again, this time they are lonely, Huo Ying is high and powerful, and there is the support of the British Duke Cai Jing, what can they do?

"Three girls."

At this moment, Bing Song's slightly anxious voice came from outside the door: "Third girl, it's not good, Xue Gongzi is here!" ”

"What is he here for?" Du Mingyuan's face also changed, "That disciple, is it possible that it is not enough to spread your rumors, and I want to humiliate you!?" ”

Xue Gongzi is the one who teased Jiang Yu at the beginning, but was beaten by Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu has today's "fame", thanks to him.

Jiang Yu put on a veil and walked to the main house for hospitality without saying a word.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard Xue Gongzi and the second master Jiang Chenfeng talking from inside, and his tone was very concerned: "Yunzhi, your family's affairs can be seen bright?" ”

Yunzhi is Jiang Chenfeng's table word.
