001. Miss Jiang Jia
Thirty years ago, in April 147, in the main mansion of the Jiang Mansion, in a small courtyard, there were many people standing at this moment, and they all looked at the house where the maid entered and exited, and there was a cry of pain from time to time.
An old man over half a hundred years old stood beside two young boys, the younger one was only two years old, and the older one was only four years old.
Two-year-old Jiang Jingle listened to his mother's painful screams from the room inside, and couldn't help but tighten his brother's little hand, Jiang Jingzhi looked down at him, and his face was full of worry.
"Brother, mother is in pain." Jiang Jingle didn't speak completely, and the nurse who was waiting on the side glanced at Old Man Jiang and brought the two children to him.
This has been going on for most of the day, and everyone's faces are not very good-looking, especially Jiang Jiye, the head of the Jiang family, it stands to reason that his wife is the third child, and it should be smoother, but this time is longer than when he gave birth to the eldest child.
Jiang Jiye glanced at the delivery room and said to the old man Jiang on the side, "Father, why don't you go to the side room to rest now." ”
Jiang Jiye said this, and a woman behind him also spoke, "Yes, father, you have been standing here for a long time, why don't you go to the wing room to rest, and it is not too late to come and see when your sister-in-law is born." ”
After all, no one dared to step forward to help him, Old Man Jiang stretched out his hand to signal them not to speak, and his eyes fell on Jiang Jingle, who was trembling slightly beside the nurse, "Take them to the side room." ”
Not long after, there was a shout of strength in the delivery room, followed by the voice of Wen Po, and everyone's faces were happy, and after a while, the door opened.
Wen Po came out with a swaddling baby, and the old man Jiang walked over, giving birth to a child who came out for most of the day, and his spirit was very good, it seemed that this swaddling clothes were uncomfortable, and he hid his face in the swaddling clothes after seeing the light.
"Congratulations to Mr. Jiang, congratulations to Jiang Guogong, he is a daughter." Wen Po has delivered so many babies, whether it is a man or a woman, she speaks smoothly, and she is usually happy when she sees a man, but here, she saw a different reaction.
When Old Man Jiang heard that it was a woman, his solemn expression suddenly relaxed, and he took the child directly from Wen Po's hand, and said in the middle of the year, "Okay!" Then he smiled.
The baby in his arms seemed to feel this joy, muttered, squinted and fell asleep, the old man Jiang looked satisfied, looked up at the sky, and looked at the spring / color of the yard, the warm breeze blowing, refreshing, "Her name is Ru Yin." ”
Jiang Ruyin's birth was definitely a sensation in the Jiang family, in this great Jiang family, it is not surprising to have a son, and it is precious to give birth to a daughter, especially the daughter who came out of the belly of the Shaw family, the eldest granddaughter of the Jiang family.
Shao Shi married Jiang Jiye and even gave birth to two sons did not satisfy the old man Jiang, she was worried about the third child, but this child is peaceful, after the birth date said by the imperial doctor is still a few days late, although she almost went to the toss when she was born, but after knowing that it was a daughter, Shao Shi felt that this life was complete.
On the day he was born, the old man Jiang gave a good name, and the three words Jiang Ruyin showed dignity that the rest of the Jiang family did not have.
Old man Jiang designed Xie Shui Pavilion for her as her residence, next to the Jiang family's Neifu Lake, before the age of three she was raised by her mother Shaw Clan, when she was three years old, she moved to Xie Shui Pavilion, began to receive the old man Jiang's personal teaching.
Jiang Ruyin, who was ignorant, didn't understand that Weishenme's brothers didn't go to study until they were five years old, but she had to live alone at the age of three, and in addition to studying, she had to learn those things that she couldn't understand from her grandfather.
Old Man Jiang always hugged her, let her stand on the edge of the windowsill, pointed to the scenery of the yard and asked her, "Ru'er, do you like this yard?" ”
Jiang Ruyin nodded, her little hand clinging to the window frame, afraid that she would fall, "I like it." ”
"Do you know where outside this courtyard is?" Old man Jiang was kind and seductive, Jiang Ruyin lowered her head slightly, looked back at him, and said in a childish voice, "It's the Jiang family, grandfather." ”
"Then where is this outside the Jiang family, does Ru'er know?"
"It's Lin'an City."
"There is a big palace in Lin'an City, does Ru'er know where it is?"
"It's the palace, grandfather."
"Everything Ru'er has learned today and in the future is to go to that place." Old Man Jiang lowered his head and looked at her, how could the three-year-old Jiang Ruyin connect the two, his small mouth opened slightly, a trace of doubt flashed in his big round eyes, and he let out a long time, "Ah? ”
Old Man Jiang took her down to the desk and spread out a large map, "It's okay if you don't know, you'll understand slowly." ”
Time flies, in the blink of an eye, five years later, the chubby little girl has grown a lot taller, taking off the immaturity of her childhood, and her still childish face has a touch of maturity and stability that is not what this age should have.
At this time, the Jiang Mansion is lively, because tomorrow, the concubines who went out from the Jiang family to enter the palace, Jiang Ruyin's aunt Concubine Jin, will go home to visit relatives.
Jiang Ruyin walked through the corridor, looked at the maid in the yard who was busy tying flowers on the treetops, frowned slightly, and asked the maid behind her, "Who ordered these things to be tied?" ”
One of the maids who followed her said softly, "It was ordered by the second lady, saying that the flowers are not fully blooming now, and they are full of joy." ”
Jiang Ruyin looked at the non-trivial flower dumplings on the treetops, and commented lightly or seriously, "Draw snakes and withdraw them." ”
After that, she walked directly through the corridor and stopped looking, and the maid who had spoken before gave a few words to the two maids behind her, and followed quickly.
Jiang Ruyin really disagrees with the taste of this second aunt, it is now March, and it is not a cold winter wax moon, what flowers are tied up, the spring/color of a garden is refreshing enough.
Passing by a small garden, Jiang Ruyin came to her mother Shao's yard, Shao was busy telling the two mothers to check what else was not prepared, and when she came in, her face showed a touch of love, and beckoned her to come to her side.
Jiang Ruyin first saluted in a proper manner, and then sat down beside the Shaw family a little coquettishly, "Mother." ”
Shaw touched her face lovingly, it stands to reason that her daughter should stay by her side more than her son, but in her place, she has seen two boys more than she has seen this daughter, she has been destined to take an extraordinary road since she was born, although Shaw Brothers is distressed, but there is no way to resist.
This is the responsibility of the children of the Jiang family.
"I heard that you scolded your second sister and cried in the study." Only in her own place will her daughter reveal some of the things that a child should have, Shaw took her in his arms and patted her shoulder gently, "Your second aunt told me in the morning." ”
Jiang Ruyin pursed her lips and snorted, "What do I want to scold her, it's just that I can't stand her after saying a few words, and I'm embarrassed to complain while sitting there crying and making trouble." "It's a year younger than her, and it's not as good as her third cousin.
Hearing what his daughter meant, Shao sighed slightly, the children raised by her younger siblings are not that she speaks badly, they are all tossed, "You are a sister, let her go." ”
It's really bad luck, the second wife of the Jiang family, Li, gave birth to three daughters in a row after Jiang Ruyin was born, one for two years without stopping, the eldest daughter is only one year younger than Jiang Ruyin, but she is also Miss Jiang Jiayan, but this treatment is much worse, no wonder Li's psychology is unbalanced, and the seven-year-old Jiang Xinhui is psychologically unbalanced.
"Let?" Jiang Ruyin broke free from Shaw's arms and said something that did not fit her age, "Then she also has to know the current affairs, why should I let me give in." ”
It is this maturity that makes Shaw Brothers a little worried, people expect the child to be precocious, and only when he arrives at her husband's house can she live well, but Shaw Brothers hopes that her daughter will not be so mature, this child has learned more things than her two brothers, and let an eight-year-old child bear such a heavy burden, Shaw Brothers can't bear it.
"When your aunt comes back tomorrow, you can't be so rude when you speak, there are many rules in the palace, and when your aunt comes back, there are many people watching here." Shaw told her some more, Jiang Ruyin pursed her mouth slightly, and said dissatisfied, "What my mother said seems to be rude to me." ”
Shaw pinched her nose, "Okay, go find your eldest brother, I still have something to do." ”
Coming out of the courtyard of the Shaw Family, Jiang Ruyin thought about it for a while, and decided to go to the second brother, the eldest brother has been very busy recently, and he must not have much time to follow his father to learn the affairs of the clan.
A reminder of the maid Ziyan behind him sounded in his ears, "Miss, the second miss is here." ”
Jiang Ruyin looked up, Jiang Xinhui and the two maids were walking towards her, Jiang Xinhui also saw Jiang Ruyin, the corners of her mouth rose slightly to reveal a touch of pride, and she wanted to walk directly past Jiang Ruyin without saying hello, but the maid behind her reminded her in a whisper, "Miss, it's the eldest lady." ”
Jiang Xinhui's beautiful Danfeng eyes suddenly widened, looking at the maid with her head down, she just wanted to scold, Jiang Ruyin had already walked in front of her, and looked at Jiang Xinhui, who was shorter than her, with a calm smile on her face.
The maid behind Jiang Xinhui hurriedly called the eldest lady, and Jiang Xinhui reluctantly called her sister.
It wasn't until Jiang Ruyin walked away that Jiang Xinhui looked at the two maids angrily, "Who made you shout!" I allow you to shout! ”
The maid trembled slightly, but still mustered up the courage to persuade, "Miss, the master taught you to be polite to the eldest lady." Jiang Xinhui seemed to have been stepped on and her tail hurt, and her face suddenly turned red with anger, and she glared at the maid viciously, "Don't think that I don't dare to do anything to you if you are assigned by your father, hum!" After speaking, he stomped his feet and walked away quickly, and the two maids looked at each other for a moment, and quickly followed.
Jiang Ruyin, who was far away, listened to her delicate reprimand, there was no expression on her face, and she turned around and led people to Jiang Jingle's courtyard...
Early the next morning, there was still an hour before Concubine Jin returned to visit her family, Jiang Mansion was already waiting for her, Jiang Ruyin got up early in the morning and changed into a new dress after bathing, the pink wrap skirt was still tied with a beautiful ribbon around the waist, and the maid Qingqiu pinned the jade pendant that the old man Jiang gave her a symbol of status on her waist, and the mother behind her combed her a beautiful double flat bun, the hair circle was slightly larger, slightly drooping, and two beautiful velvet hairpins were inserted.
After a while, Jiang Ruyin's delicate and lovely appearance was displayed in front of them, and Qingqiu boasted, "Miss is so beautiful." ”
The corners of Jiang Ruyin's mouth rose slightly, and she glanced at herself in the bronze mirror, "Let's go." ”
At that time, the outside of Jiang Gong's mansion was lively, the road was cleared to disperse the pedestrians, there were officers and soldiers standing on both sides, there were several palace people walking in front, and behind them was a sedan chair carried by eight people, and there were eight palace maids walking next to the sedan chair, and behind the sedan chair were several people carrying boxes, looking at the past from a distance, a long queue.
Arrived at the door of Jiang Gong's Mansion, the sedan chair landed, there were palace people coming forward, the old man Jiang and they had already greeted the door, did not wait for the people in the sedan chair to come out, the Qi family knelt down at the door, Jiang Ruyin and Jiang Xinhui They stood together, and when they saw that the people in front of them knelt, the purple smoke on the side also helped her kneel, and the surroundings were quiet, only to hear the palace people talking, half a sound, the old man Jiang replied a few words, and the palace people retreated to the sedan chair.
Everyone bowed their heads, and a delicate white and tender hand stretched out from the sedan chair, with an emerald gemstone ring on his fingers, and a transparent bracelet on his wrist.
The palace man stretched out his hand to put his hand on it, and the other palace people opened the curtain, and a concubine in palace clothes about thirty years old walked out.
Under the bright sun, the gold ornaments on her head sparkled, and a touch of tranquility appeared in her delicate face, and she smiled at the kneeling crowd and said, "Get up." ”
After thanking the old man Jiang, Jiang Jiye helped his father to get up slowly, Jiang Ruyin and the others followed up, without waiting for her to take a closer look, everyone got out of the way, and the palace people entered the house first to cover in front of them, and Concubine Jin put one hand on a father-in-law's hand and slowly walked into Jiang's house.
It took a lot of time just for the first face, waiting for Concubine Jin to enter the front hall, most of the people dispersed, Jiang Ruyin and the others followed into the front hall, waiting for Concubine Jin to sit down in the top position, several palace people stood beside her, and Old Man Jiang knelt down again.
Jiang Ruyin's whisper floated in Jiang Ruyin's ear and complained, "Isn't it my aunt, weishenme has to kneel so many times." Jiang Ruyin glanced at her, although she didn't understand, she knew that these were the rules that her mother had said.
After standing up and giving a seat, after the people in the hall sat down in turn, Concubine Jin looked at the people in the room and sighed, "I haven't been back for many years, and these children don't even recognize this palace." ”
