Jiang Suting called the big girl and looked for the four children to return home.

Zhang Changxing and Zhang Changlong brothers have been moving around Jiangfu a lot since they were children, and even Zhang Jinse often comes here to play, and they have long been ingrained in their parents' conversations as the Jiang family as their maternal uncle's house.

Murong and Su Yan both gave the four brothers and sisters a meeting gift. The second room has the business of an auction house, and the sale is more generous.

The brothers and sisters of the Zhang family felt more and more that the people of the Jiang family were good, and they were even more generous when they were warm.

Zhang Desong and Jiang Shuncheng stayed in the study, Jiang Shuncheng was very proud to comment on the "Sanjiang Poetry Collection" with him, which made Zhang Desong praise it, and said bluntly, "The tiger father has no dog", calling the uncle for a while, and the teacher for a while.

Jiang Suting took a few children, and asked the girl to go to the big study to spread the word, and waited in the carriage for a long time before seeing Zhang Desong come out with a copy of "Sanjiang Poetry Collection" with a smile on his face.

"Look at your father and son, all of them are so stay that they don't want to go home."

Jiang Suting took her children to Jizhou with Zhang Desong, and the imperial city of Zhangfu left the eldest aunt to take care of it, and the eldest aunt was Jiang Suting's dowry girl.

After the eldest aunt was favored, she was arrogant for two years, although Jiang Suting wanted to be as spicy as the Yu family, and controlled her husband and did not accept concubines, however, Zhang Desong was not Jiang Shuncheng in the end, and he was not allowed to touch women, so he raised them outside, so Jiang Suting had a lot of quarrels with him.

After having three children, Jiang Suting figured out that instead of relying on her husband, it was better to rely on herself, so she simply chose a young and beautiful woman to give him as a concubine.

Men like the new and hate the old, and the eldest aunt soon found out that all the control was in Jiang Suting's hands, who Jiang Suting wanted to be favored, and who Zhang Desong wanted; Whoever Jiang Suting wants to be beautiful, he can be beautiful. If something big happens, Zhang Desong will still defend Jiang Suting, because she is the wife of the main mother.

The eldest aunt has the eldest daughter, called Jinjuan, who is slightly older than the eldest daughter Jinse. There is also a second aunt who has the eldest son, who is one year younger than Jinse.

Back then, because of the rampant aunt, in order to contain the eldest aunt, Jiang Suting bought a beautiful girl from Ya Po, opened her face and made a room, and she became pregnant in less than half a year and was promoted to the second aunt. conceived in October and gave birth to her eldest son, Zhang Changji.

There is also a third aunt, who is very beautiful. It is said that she is the daughter of a certain criminal minister, who is quite literate and good at poetry and songs, and is most favored by Zhang Desong, and has a son and two daughters. returned to the imperial city this time, leaving their mother and son in Jizhou.

The third aunt knows that the fate of her mother and son is in the hands of Jiang Suting, she does not dare to be arrogant, she only serves carefully, if she provokes Jiang Suting, she will get back Zhang Desong's heart by getting back her younger and more beautiful than her, and leave her in the backyard.

Zhang's mansion is in Lotus Lane in the south of the city, this street is the closest to the east of the city, and the officials who live in the imperial city are above the fifth grade.

The two carriages staggered into the alley, and Jiang Suting held Jinxiu in her arms.

Jin Se snorted angrily to Jiang Suting: "The fifth sister is getting more and more unattractive, and when she arrived at Bingqing Pavilion, she actually opened her mouth to ask her cousin for a gift, and scooped away the gold-inlaid jade bracelet that her cousin was wearing. ”

Jinxiu pouted, "My cousin also gave you a gift, don't you accept it too." ”

"That's different, cousin gave it to me, that's because she loves me, but how can you ask someone for it."

Jinxiu ignored it at all, "If I don't want it, my cousin Xu will forget it?" She stretched out her chubby little wrist, white as a lotus root.

Jiang Suting wanted to take a bite. His face was slightly cold, and he reached out and patted her on the head, "There are more and more rules, how can you be so rude and ask for something by yourself?" Maybe your aunt and cousin are laughing at it in their hearts? ”

"Not really." Jinxiu looked at the bracelet on her wrist, "My cousin said, we are a family, and she loves me as much as my aunt." My cousin asked me and my sister Ming'er to play again, saying that the northwest dim sum made by the second aunt was the best, and the second aunt would also make Jiangnan side dishes, but it was fragrant, so let the second aunt mix the noodles tonight, and we could eat it in the past. ”

Jiang Suting looked at the bracelet on Jinxiu's hand, "Yes, it's a valuable thing." ”

Jin Se stretched out her wrist, she also got one, it was a pair, one for each sister, and this pair of bracelets was strange in that they could be worn regardless of fat or thin, size. It can be adjusted larger when worn on Jinse's wrist, and it can be adjusted smaller when worn on Jinxiu's hand.

Zhang Desong looked at his two daughters, "I don't know who this mouth is following to ask for things from others?" ”

Jiang Suting was going to discuss Mobao with Su Yan today, and when she heard him, she raised her eyebrows slightly: "Who are you talking about?" How old is Sister Xiu'er, what does she know? ”

Zhang Desong was too lazy to provoke her, and when he was annoyed for a while, he had to play tricks again, so he simply didn't keep his voice and pretended to be dumb.

Jinxiu showed the gift she had received, and said coquettishly: "Mother, let's go to grandpa's house again tomorrow." The cousin said that the sixth aunt was really sick, and if she was not sick, she would also give us good things, saying that the sixth aunt was also generous. ”

Jiang Suting sighed lightly, "How can you get her things?" ”

Jin Se looked at his mother curiously.

Jinxiu was young and asked, "Mother, what are you for?" My cousin said she was generous. ”

Jiang Suting said coldly: "I don't even have a maiden family, if it weren't for your aunt thinking about her, how could she have any dowry, and it wasn't given by your aunt." Your aunt treats her so well, she will do something to slap your aunt in the face. A poor ghost! Ming'er, you two are not allowed to go, let alone ask for her things, you got a gift of one or two silver from her, and I have to pay back three taels or four taels when I go back, you say this is a good deal? ”

Jin Se understands that the Liu family has no mother's family, it is not welcomed, even her mother looks down on her, and now her grandmother has been waiting for a long time, and the family is not happy. Thinking of today's gift, he asked, "Mother, then we received the ...... from my cousin and aunt today."

"Don't worry, your aunt is generous, if you don't accept it, she will be angry."

Su Yan's temperament makes Su Ting feel like, she likes cheerful people, Su Yan is a little like Yu, and a little like Jiang Shuncheng. Su Ting likes it no matter how she looks at it, this is the pearl of her uncle and aunt's palm, and she has been promised to the prince of the palace on her left shoulder, and she will need to mention it more in the future.

"You two remember, you will play with your aunt and cousin more in the future. Your aunt is a talented girl in the imperial city, and my mother doesn't expect you to learn half of her, and you two will benefit immensely if you learn thirty percent. ”

As she was talking, Jinxiu boredomically reached out to grab the painting on the desk in the car, and before her hand touched it, she was hit by Jiang Suting, "That's a baby, it's not silver that can be bought, don't touch it!" ”

Zhang Desong noticed the table on the side, unfolding a painting, the color is bright, beautiful but not vulgar, revealing a sense of wealth and nobility, a few flowers bloom in the moon, or purple, or red, in different forms, just like the beauty of the world. Two butterflies danced and never gave up.

"Is this what you and the county master are talking to?"

Su Ting smiled, "My little sister happened to collect two pieces there, and when she saw that she liked it, she gave them to me." ”

Zhang Desong knew his wife's temperament very well, how could he think that it was given by someone else, and it was Su Ting who opened her mouth, and Su Yan gave it.

Back in Zhang's house, the young Jinxiu did not forget to show off in front of the brocade, who sent it like this, who sent it like that, and who sent it like that, and he was very envious of Jinjuan.

Although Jinxiu is young, he also knows how to put things away by himself, and when he has nothing to do, he opens the box and looks at it once, looking back and forth one by one, and looking at every detail before putting it on his head.

Deyue Pavilion.

Su Yan stood in front of the window again and practiced calligraphy.

Mama Qing sighed lightly, "It took so much effort for the county lord to paint two paintings, and they were taken away by the eldest aunt's wife. ”

She smiled and whispered like a dream, "Anyway, it's painted by herself, she wants it, give two pictures." "To put it lightly, there is no feeling, her flowers and plants are getting better and better, but she is rusty with landscape pictures.

As the vassals and a few others said, in fact, Su Yan only needs to paint one type of danqing, and there is no need to try each of them.

Su Yan put down her pen, looked at the words on the case, scooped up the words written by Bai Feng, and took the handwriting left by Zhu Wu for her back then.

"The county lord is a little too generous, what a good white jade wolf pen, you said to give it to the son of the Zhang family, it is two, it is worth a lot of silver, and it is rewarded by the palace."

Mama Qing felt distressed when she thought about it, Jiang Shuncheng was not even willing to give it to the third master, and gave the two pens to Su Yan, but she gave them away.

"No matter how good it is, it's just a thing, it doesn't matter."

Su Yan opened the brocade box on the case, which contained all the good things that had been obtained since this year, the white jade wolf pen was just one of the pairs, and the newly obtained inkstone, although it was not the best, but it was also precious, a piece of color such as rouge, a piece of jade pattern, and a piece of color line, these three pieces are Jinsha inkstones produced from Shudi Netzhou, and it is rare to have one, and there are three pieces.

Jiang Shuncheng felt sorry for his daughter, knowing that she preferred calligraphy and painting, and deliberately spent a lot of money to collect it from the major pawnshops in the imperial city.

The father was looking for an inkstone for his daughter, and Jiang Shupeng and Jiang Shuhong brothers also found a piece of each, and they made up three inkstones.

Mama Qing said loudly: "County Lord, you won't give away this inkstone, right?" ”

Jinsha inkstone, famous all over the world. Since the evaluation of whether it is a good inkstone, there is a saying of "seven treasures and eight treasures", that is, seven eyes are treasures, and eight eyes are treasures. After polishing, the stone is delicate and moisturized, caressing it like a baby's skin, and the sound of knocking is deep like wood. Good inkstone does not dry up, grinding ink silently, greasy but not slippery, and storing ink does not rot or freeze.

Su Yan didn't answer Mama Qing, took the tea, dropped a few drops on each of the three inkstones, looked for an ink stick, and sharpened it seriously. "Let's try which one is the best first, and leave the best one. Give the worst to the old master, and the better one to the third master. Spread the good there, and then pick up the pieces and send them to it. ”rs
