Chapter 5 Baume & Mercier

After coming out of Shen Yijing's room, Jiang Ling and Shen Qin went back to the room with their sleeping daughter, and Shen Qin took her daughter and put her in the bed.

Jiang Ling hugged his wife's waist from behind, "Awen, I'm sorry." "They have been married for many years, and everything has been discussed, but this matter is Jiang Ling's own opinion. The eldest brother and sister-in-law have been married for many years and have no children, not only the clan elders, but also the father and the eldest brother themselves are willing to pass on the title of Duke of Song to themselves, but Jiang Ling himself is unwilling. The eldest brother has been recuperating for many years, and in the impression of others, the prince of Song Guo only has four words: frail and sickly, but in Jiang Ling's mind, the eldest brother is still the young hero who led a thousand horses into the grassland at the age of fifteen and headed the Turkic Zuoxian King, and the sixteen-year-old who dared to face Fang Jing, the general of the Southern Dynasty, and played against him by the river, talking and laughing. He never thought to go over and take what belonged to Big Brother.

Shen Qin turned around and said, "I didn't want you to be the son of the world. "They are husband and wife, what does Jiang Ling think, can Shen Qin still know? How much Jiang Ling respects Jiang Rin, how much Shen Qin respects his eldest sister-in-law, as Jiang Ling thought, the title of Duke of Song Guo should naturally be the eldest brother and sister-in-law, "You might as well let the eldest brother arrange for you to go to Yangzhou for an official position, let's take Ah Zhi to Jiangnan to have fun, maybe you can have a chance to go back to Wuxing." Shen Qin yearned for the Shen family's ancestral home in Wuxing, Shen Qin's grandmother Lu is the daughter of the Lu family of Wu County, grew up in Jiangnan, Shen Qin told her a lot of scenery in Jiangnan when she was young, Shen Qin has always wanted to travel to Jiangnan.

"Are you willing to give up San Lang them?" Jiang Ling asked, he wanted to release him for a long time, but his wife has always been reluctant to have three sons.

"If you are reluctant, you have to give up, they are also old and have their own things to do." Shen Qin couldn't give up his son before because they were young, the heirs of the Jiang Mansion were thin, and there were three sons in the long house, and her family attached great importance to it, and the three children were raised by him personally, and it was absolutely impossible to bring them to office, "Fortunately, we still have Ah Shi with us." ”

Jiang Ling was also quite dissatisfied with his father's behavior of robbing his son, "Let's give Ah Zhi another little brother, let him grow up with Ah Zhi." Jiang Ling proposed with great interest, thinking that he was surrounded by young sons and young daughters under his knees.

"If you want to be born, you have to wait for Ah Zhi to talk about it." Shen Qin glanced at her husband, her daughter had been tormented this year, and she didn't have the heart to torture herself for the time being.

"Of course, if you want to give birth, you have to go to Yangzhou to give birth, otherwise how can we raise a son." Jiang Ling is very self-aware, if he is in the capital, his father will only allow him to raise one daughter at most, and only when he is far away from Yangzhou Tiangao Emperor, they can't take care of it, "I'll go back and tell my eldest brother first, let him pay attention to the official position in Yangzhou, and we'll go when it's vacated." ”

"Okay." Jiang Ling's idea made Shen Qin quite moved, she was tired of staying in the capital, so it was better to go to the place to play.

The courtyard of the Shen Mansion was quiet and leisurely, but the Jiang Mansion that was overturned by Jiang Ling was a gloomy fog, and everyone was walking on tiptoe at home, and even the sound of breathing was lowered, for fear of disturbing the master's recuperation. The saint of the court is in the palace to escape the summer, Jiang Ke, the Duke of Song Guo, and Jiang Yi are not in the house, after Jiang Ling made a fuss, no one in the long room has returned to the house, and there are only people in the second room in the Jiang mansion at present.

"Jiang Zuozang ordered, Brother Ling fainted because of a moment of anger, and the external injuries on his body are not major for the time being, as long as he is on medicine, he will be fine." The doctor of the Imperial Medical Department politely said to Jiang.

Jiang Jue was relieved to hear that his brother was fine, "Thank you Wu Yicheng, I wonder when my brother will wake up?" ”

"If Zuo Zang Ling wants Brother Ling to wake up immediately, I can give Brother Ling an injection." Wu Yicheng said, "But Brother Ling had better rest for a while." ”

Jiang Jue nodded, and didn't let Wu Yicheng give Jiang Zhun an injection, since he was overly emotional, it would be good to rest for a while, he had enough things, and he really didn't want him to make trouble for himself anymore.

Wu Yicheng took the pen and prescribed a prescription for Jiang Zhun to calm down and recuperate, Jiang decided to order his subordinates to dispense medicine, and personally sent Wu Yicheng out, Wu Yicheng is a frequent visitor to Jiang Mansion, he has strong medical skills, is kind, and has a tight mouth, and the owners of Jiang Mansion invite Wu Yicheng to enter the house for treatment if they are unwell.

"Zuo Zang order to stay, the affairs in the house are complicated, Zuo Zang order is convenient, I can be led out of the house by the servants." Wu Yicheng smiled and said to Jiang Jie, he is the Taiyi Cheng of the Taiyi Department from the eighth grade, Jiang Jue is the Zuo Tibetan Order of the Left Tibetan Department from the seventh grade, and Jiang Du is only one level higher than Wu Yicheng in terms of official position, but the Zuo Tibetan Department is subordinate to Taichang Temple, specializing in the world's taxation and the purchase of items in the palace.

"Then I'll not be far away." Jiang Jue was able to become the prefect of the Left Tibetan Administration by virtue of his family background, but he was able to work on this fat shortage for five years, and he was taken care of by him from top to bottom, definitely not just by family background.

Jiang Jue was not in a hurry to see his grandmother after sending Wu Yicheng away, the affairs in the official office were complicated in the past few days, he had not returned to the house for five days, and he still did not know what was going on in the mansion.

"Lang Jun." Jiang Jie's concubine brought Jiang Jie's clothes and waited for him to freshen up and change clothes.

"What the hell is going on?" Jiang Jue asked the steward who was standing beside him.

The steward told Jiang Ling what he had done, and at the end he hesitated for a moment and said, "Lang Jun, what should I do with the lion dog sent by Wu Lang Jun?" Madame said yes let's all beat us to death. "It's okay to kill the pheasant, but the lion dog was sent by the court, so it's not good to kill it like this. The lady in the steward's mouth is Jiang Jie's mother, Guo Shi, and Mrs. Guo's niece.

Jiang Jue looked at the corner, a lion dog that was barking irritablely, and a shaved pheasant, Rao Jiang Jue was quite good at cultivating qi, and he also felt a breath in his chest, and after a while, he lightly ordered: "Let the dog slave take care of this lion dog." After finishing speaking, he turned around and walked into the house, the lion dog has always been only raised in the palace, and it is not allowed to be raised by non-royal relatives and nobles, this lion dog was just sent by the palace, even if Jiang Jue dislikes this lion dog again, he can't discard it at will.

Jiang Jue had a headache, when Jiu Niang was born, his mother said that he wanted Jiu Niang to rank along Qi Niang, he objected, aside from the relationship between the two rooms, Jiu Niang is the only daughter of Changfang so far, the fifth brother has long been spoiled by the saint and grandfather, and acts willfully, Wu Di is the only daughter of Shen Zhongshu, and the fifth brother has a similar temper, and the husband and wife love their daughter like their lives, how can they be convinced? Sure enough, Jiang Ling was really troubled like this.

"Fourth uncle." The girl's delicate voice sounded, and Jiang Jue turned around to see a girl in a red shirt walking towards him, this little girl has beautiful eyebrows, white teeth and red lips, and is full of little beauty embryos, but at the age of about four or five years old, she behaves calmly and calmly.

Jiang Jue's expression softened when he saw this girl, "Ah Qi, why are you here?" "This girl is Jiang Yuanyi, the eldest daughter of the second room, can speak in August, can read "History" at the age of four, whether it is Mrs. Guo or Mrs. Guo has pampered her to the bones, what is even more rare is that Jiang Yuanyi is never pampered and arrogant, filial piety to the elders, love for her younger siblings, and kindness to her subordinates, no one in the entire Jiang Mansion said that she was not good, Jiang never had a daughter, and she also loved her niece very much.

"My father is still in good health, and my mother is not worried about my great-grandmother, so I asked me to come and visit my great-grandmother." Jiang Yuanyi said that when she saw the lion dog in a cage by her subordinates, she did not change color.

Jiang Jue nodded approvingly, this child has hills and valleys, joy and anger are not good, if he cultivates well, he will become a great weapon in the future, Jiang Jue secretly thought to himself, when his father returns home, he will definitely ask a gentleman to enlighten her.

Jiang Yuanyi didn't know what the fourth uncle was thinking, and swept away the lion dog in the cage, not because she didn't want to see it, but because she was afraid that she would laugh if she watched it again, why did she send a breeding dog? You should send a stallion! She didn't have the slightest affection for this lascivious and brainless ancient father, and she didn't have much anger when she saw the breeding dog that laughed at her father.

In the inner room of Chunhui Hall, Mrs. Guo leaned on the bed with her eyes half-closed, and her hands were lined with coral-red quilts as if they were carved from white jade.

Jiang Jie's wife, Cui Shi, stood in front of the couch, holding the medicine bowl and slowly stirring the spoon to dissipate heat, and when the temperature of the soup was about the same, it was sent to Mrs. Tai's mouth, "Grandmother, drink the medicine." ”

Mrs. Guo opened her eyes, and Cui Shi fed her the decoction, and when she saw Jiang Jie entering, she asked, "Shiro, how is San Lang?" ”

Jiang Jue said to Mrs. Guo: "Wu Yicheng said that the third brother will faint only when he is angry and angry, and it is good to apply gold sore medicine to the external injuries on his body." ”

Mrs. Guo heard the anger and attack her heart, and her hand on the quilt tightened, and Cui's eyes were only focused on feeding Mrs. Guo medicine. Jiang Yuanyi stepped forward and said to Mrs. Tai: "Great-grandmother, don't worry too much about your father, with A-Niang taking care of him, he will get better soon." ”

Mrs. Tai listened to her great-granddaughter's words, and a faint smile appeared on her face, "I know that my family Ah Qi is the most filial." ”

"A-Niang-A-Niang-" A sobbing cry sounded outside the door, and a beautifully dressed lady walked into the room, her face full of tears, "A-Niang, you have to be the master of San Lang!" ”

When Cui Shi saw this noble lady, her head hung lower, and Mrs. Guo's face was slightly gloomy and asked Cui Shi and Jiang Yuanyi to retreat.

Mrs. Guo said to Jiang, "Go, send a letter to your uncle-" She wants to find her brother to call the shots.

"What do you want to do?" Mrs. Guo said coldly.

"I want my eldest brother to call the shots for me, he Jiang Ling is too much!" Mrs. Guo said hatefully.

"You're not ashamed enough!" Mrs. Tai rebuked angrily.

"Auntie-" Mrs. Guo was stunned by Mrs. Tai.

Mrs. Tai secretly regretted that after scolding her niece, her grandson was still there, and it was a bit too much to teach her niece in front of the younger generation, she slowed down her tone and said: "No one is allowed to leak this matter, if it gets out, no one will think that the big house is hateful, but only that our godson has no way." She mentioned that Xiao Jiu should be called Zhonghua, but that was not her main purpose at all, and almost all the good things she had planned were ruined by this waste that was not enough, thinking of this, Mrs. Tai glared at Mrs. Guo fiercely.

Mrs. Guo was very aggrieved in her heart, wasn't it Auntie's idea to let Dafang Xiaojiu call Zhonghua?

Jiang Jue saw that his grandmother was angry with his mother, but he didn't show it on his face, but he was very unhappy in his heart, his mother had a straightforward temperament, he recently sent a few small plays to his mother, she didn't have enough time to watch small dramas every day, if there was no grandmother to provoke, how could she be inexplicably against Jiang Ling?

"Shiro, you're busy with official business, and you don't have any major events at home, so you don't have to worry too much." Mrs. Tai turned to Jiang Jue and said in a harmonious voice, she was partial to the eldest grandson who was raised single-handedly, but she relied on the second grandson, who was shrewd and capable, and was the pillar of the second room.

"The saint is not in the capital, and there is no official business in the official office."

"When will the Holy Lord return to Beijing?" Mrs. Tai asked.

"About seven or eight days later." Jiang Jue was also a little unsure, he still corresponded with his father three days ago.

"Your father is busy, so don't bother him, I'm not unwell." Mrs. Tai said.

Jiang Jue should be respectful, and when he saw Mrs. Tai's tired face, he retreated with Guo.

After Guo Shi came out, he complained to his son: "When your father comes back, you must let him teach Jiang Ling a good lesson!" Guo Shi thought of the breeding dog and felt angry, "Your third sister-in-law is also a useless thing, and she can't even give birth to a son!" She should have been divorced by listening to me! ”

Jiang Jue smiled bitterly, the eldest sister-in-law is the daughter of the Lu family in Fanyang, when the father came to the door to beg the Lu family more than ten times, before the Lu family allowed the daughter to the brother who was not able to do civil and military affairs, the third brother has been so ridiculous these years, the Lu family has already had a whisper, if it weren't for the fact that the Jiang Mansion is now powerful, it would have come to the door a long time ago, if the mother's words were heard by the Lu family, wouldn't it be a feud? "Auntie, do you like a few small plays I sent you last time?" Jiang decided to change the subject.

"I like it, these children are so smart, and there is a little doll who can learn dozens of bird calls." Guo usually likes to watch all kinds of small tricks, Jiang Jie's mother is filial, and often people teach and tune small plays to Guo for amusement. Guo's temperament has been innocent for fifty years, and most of the time she is a good master, as long as she doesn't make her angry, she doesn't beat and scold her subordinates much, and the little drama around her will give them some gold and silver to send them out when she is twelve or thirteen years old, and many lowly actors feel that going to Jiang Mansion to tease Mrs. Guo is a very good way out.

"I heard that there is a new material in the Tiangongfang, and I asked Acui to accompany you to the street to relax?" Jiang Jie's wife Cui is the daughter of the Cui family in Qinghe, and has two sons with Jiang Jie, and the Guo family is much better to the Cui family than the Lu family.

"Okay." Guo Shi was coaxed by the young son to smile in a few words.

Jiang Jue breathed a sigh of relief, and finally drew his mother's attention away first, Jiang Ling's temperament was already muddy, and God had no eyes, so he had an extra title of celebrity, what is a celebrity? It's that when your father and mother die, everyone else will cry, celebrities can laugh, you can sing and dance, fish and meat, no one will scold you, no imperial history will impeach you, and you can get a praise from celebrities and gentlemen. What kind of reason can you say to such people? Even if his father came back, he would scold him at most.
