Chapter 215: Impudent Pleas
Jiang Yan's dream of being a princess was shattered, and Liu Xu was scared violently, but he didn't dare to go to King Qi's mansion to find Jiang Liu anymore, but the dream of wealth in his heart was not broken, so he thought about thinking of a way to settle down in the capital and take root, why can Jiang Liu's wild seed enjoy wealth, but she Jiang Yan can't!
She has two ideas in her heart, one is to let Jiang Liu give her this house, she has lived in such a good place, and there are people to serve, and then it is impossible for her to return to that ravine, and then let Jiang Liu find a good family for her, anyway, the original family business is retired, she can't marry the emperor's son, she can always marry the emperor's nephew, although she is wronged.
She didn't dare to come to the Qi Wangfu again, but Jiang Liu, who had no conscience, didn't go out of the palace to see them, and she couldn't see Jiang Liu, so she discussed with her mother and asked her father to find Jiang Liu and bring the house over!
Second Uncle Jiang is honest, knowing that his family was not good to Jiang Liu when he was a child, and now Jiang Liu let them live in such a good place regardless of his previous suspicions, and it is really unacceptable to make such excessive demands, but he can't bear the mother and daughter grinding in his ears, and he also wants his daughter to live a good life like Jiang Liu, so he cheekily went to King Qi's mansion.
Second Uncle Jiang was submissive, and was taken to Qiushui Garden by the maid, and he didn't dare to read much along the way, knowing that he was relieved to see Mo Ziyu, and said respectfully: "I've seen Concubine Jiang." ”
"Second uncle don't have to be polite, why are you here today? But if there is any inconvenient place to live, if there is any inconvenience, just tell Steward Qi, Steward Qi will handle it, if he can't make up his mind to come back to me, you don't have to run in person." Mo Ziyu said lightly.
Second Uncle Jiang smiled wryly, got up and bowed down and said, "The habits of living are very good, they are all very good!"
"That's?"
"I just want to thank you, and I ...... I came to see you!" Second Uncle Jiang swallowed his saliva, what he wanted to say, he couldn't say it.
Mo Ziyu saw his helplessness, but he was afraid that he was forced to come by Jiang ** girl, and said with a faint smile: "If the second uncle has anything to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
"There are two things. Second Uncle Jiang wiped the sweat on his forehead, "Your house is excellent, we are very happy to live in it, and I think it would be nice if we could live there forever, but this house is always yours, and it is not practical to live." What, although your second uncle was poor when you were a child, he didn't take care of you less, he didn't make you hungry, and your cousin is not young now, it's time to find someone, but they found a family before, but they disliked that our family was too poor, so they retreated. ”
Mo Ziyu listened with a light smile, didn't speak, and listened to him.
Second Uncle Jiang swallowed his saliva, and said: "You are married so well now, see if you can find a good family for your sister, you are such a sister, so that she can live a good life in the capital, and whether that house can be used as her dowry, lest she be looked down upon by others." ”
It turned out that he was worried about that house, Mo Ziyu flipped through Jiang Liu's letters with his father yesterday, and talked about the meanness of the second uncle's family, if it is really kind, and the family is sensible, how about sending a house and helping her find a good family?
Now seeing that the second uncle's family is not only mean and greedy, but also has no kindness to her, so she is not willing to give any more of this penny, let alone find relatives for Jiang Liu, isn't that asking for trouble?
Mo Ziyu smiled faintly: "That house is a gift from the king of Dongjun, and it is not good to give it away, you just have to keep it here, and you don't have to feel unsteady." My cousin is too good again, I'm just afraid that she may not be able to look down on her, or you two elders work hard for her, if you check it, it will get into her eyes, but don't worry about the dislike of the in-laws, I will prepare the dowry!"
Second Uncle Jiang looked at Mo Ziyu and meant to reject herself, and she was a little annoyed in her heart, she is now developed, why didn't she think of bringing her cousin at all, although she didn't have any affection for her before, they are all relatives in the end!
Mo Ziyu still had that faint smile: "Second uncle, is there anything else?"
"I didn't ...... Nope. Second Uncle Jiang wiped the sweat on his forehead again, and was dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't dare to show half a point on his lips, looking at Jiang Liu's majestic and indifferent appearance now, and thinking about his daughter's chatter, he suddenly felt a little dull on his face, and under the gaze of Jiang Liu, he became more and more uncomfortable, and found an excuse and left first.
Lu Qiao looked at it coldly and sneered: "It's really not that a family doesn't enter the door, and this family of three is too greedy." The girl gave them a house to live in, and the people gave them money, and they gave them money to spend, and they were too content, and they wanted to covet your house. Although they are relatives, it doesn't hurt to take care of them, and they won't all be raised like this, not to mention that something will inevitably happen in the capital and what kind of basket will be stabbed. If the girl wants to support them, let them go back to their hometown, and if they can't starve them with land and land, they can still be a solid rich peasant!"
Mo Ziyu, you took a sip of the teacup, and said with a slight smile: "After seeing the prosperity of the capital, will they be so willing to go back?"
"Then they are dog skin plasters that generally rely on you?" Lu Qiao sighed, "If it is a good relative, it doesn't hurt for the girl to carry it, and there will be a place to visit during the New Year's holidays in the future, and now look, this family of three is not worth associating, so it is better to send them away early." ”
"Do you think the princess is eyeing them at this time?" Mo Ziyu put down the teacup and said lightly.
"Princess?"
"The princess is eyeing them, if I say it now and drive them out of the capital, this princess will inevitably join forces with Jiang ** to ruin my reputation, and then I will be the ungrateful person who hates the poor and loves the rich. Mo Ziyu said lightly, "Why leave a handle for the princess, besides, the person was invited by the Queen Mother, and the bell needs to be tied to the bell!"
"Anyway, the girl just has an idea in her heart. ”
Inside the Wuling Courtyard.
The princess shook her fan and listened to Lily of the Valley's report, frowning slightly: "Aren't all her relatives dead?"
"Earlier, there was a famine in their village, and her father fled to the capital with her life, and the people in the village fled to other villages, but a few people survived. ”
"How did they find the capital?"
"It is said that the Queen Mother found it, and I guess I want to find relatives for Concubine Jiang, but I never thought that it was not a good stubble. ”
The princess raised her eyebrows and asked, "What do you say?"
Lily of the valley told the eighth lady about meeting Jiang **, and said contemptuously: "This Concubine Jiang is from a small place, and these relatives of hers can't be on the stage, and they don't seem to be reasonable and knowledgeable, but they can't cause trouble to her." ”
"You find two people to keep an eye on her poor relatives, and come and report to me something. The princess said.
"Yes. ”
Lily of the valley said, thought for a while and asked, "Mrs. Jin'er is coming to see you, why don't you see you, princess?"
The princess's face showed a touch of sadness, and she smiled self-deprecatingly: "The last time my son met his father and brother, he broke up unhappily, and when she came, she was afraid that she would say similar things, and when the time came, it would be inevitable to speak ill of each other, why hurt the mother-daughter relationship, it is better not to see it!"
Since she was injured and unable to have children, her family has not treated her as well as before. Before, because she had been infertile for many years, her parents went around asking God to worship Buddha, blaming her for her belly and not being able to leave a child to consolidate her position as soon as possible and take the position of princess as soon as possible. Now that she has become a princess, she has fulfilled their hearts, but the price is that she will not be able to have children for the rest of her life.
What happened to seeing them, it was nothing more than a long sigh at first, evoking her sadness, and then persuading her to get a few more Yang family sisters to come to the palace, and give birth to children with the blood of the Yang family as soon as possible.
And they look down on her daughter more and more, especially although she is now a princess, it is because she can't have children and has to rely on them to be able to sit in her current position.
As for her pain, her grievances, and her helplessness, in front of the interests of the Yang family, it is not the most important thing.
In fact, as the daughter of the Yang family, she didn't have to marry into King Qi's mansion as a concubine, not to mention that King Qi at that time was not valued by His Majesty at all.
She has an elder sister, because she had an affair with someone, she beat them to death, but it also affected her reputation, and she had to marry into the Qi Palace. However, my sister's affairs were slowly forgotten, the Yang family became more and more prominent, and King Qi became more and more trusted by His Majesty, and the reason why she married into King Qi's mansion in the first place was gradually forgotten, they just wanted to get more from her, about power, about interests.
If King Qi was still the unfavored King Qi, if they didn't pin more hope on King Qi, the responsibility on their shoulders would not be so heavy.
"In any case, Madame is well-intentioned, Princess, you will break her heart if you avoid it. Lily of the valley persuaded.
The princess waved her hand: "Who should I tell when my heart is broken? Who cares? I am also a woman, and the value of my existence is more than just giving birth to children! Do you see the way they look at me? Such pity, as if I can have children, I am not a complete person! I just want them to see, even if I have no children in my life, I will live happily than them!"
"The days are our own, why bother to see them like them!" sighed.
Let's say that Second Uncle Jiang returned to the house, and his wife and daughter immediately came to ask him about the results of his trip to King Qi's mansion.
Second Uncle Jiang took a sip of herbal tea and sighed: "That Qi Wangfu is really splendid, I have never seen such a good place in my life, it's like a dream!"
"Who asked you this!" Liu slapped him, "I asked Jiang Liu what he said?"
Second Uncle Jiang's face wrinkled, and he said helplessly: "How can I say that this house belongs to someone else, and there is no reason to give it to us in vain!"
"Phew, what a conscienceless little hoof, he lives in such a good place, and he refuses to give us a place to live, it's really selfish and indifferent!" Liu took a sip, "What about Yan'er's marriage, what does that little hoof say!"
"said that our Yan'er is too good, and the person she is looking for can't look down on. Second Uncle Jiang said.
"I don't like anything, she just doesn't want to look for it, she is afraid that her sister will live better than her!" Liu Shi spat two more mouthfuls of spit, "This little hoof who has been cut by a thousand knives should have starved to death in the early years, and she didn't know how to repay her kindness at all, a little slut with no conscience!"
"Mother, then what should I do!" Jiang Yan stomped her foot, "I don't want to live worse than Jiang Liu, what she wants, I also want it, what she has, I want too!"
Liu comforted: "Don't be afraid, you are much better than Jiang Liu, you can have everything she has!
"What can I do, this person in the capital is not familiar with the place, and finally found a marriage, isn't Yan'er looking for death and life to retreat?" Second Uncle Jiang is also very helpless, he is an honest farmer, and the first time he went out to the capital, what way can he have.
Liu scolded: "It's all because Jiang Liu is so cheap, his conscience was eaten by a dog, let King Qi speak, what's wrong with finding a good family for her sister, how much trouble it costs her!
Hearing the scolding inside, the young man at the door couldn't hear it, and said inside: "Second aunt, the place where we live now is Jiang Liu's, eat her, drink her, it's inappropriate for you to scold people behind people's backs, right?"
"It's your business!" Liu scolded, "I ate her, drank her, what's wrong, it was her Jiang Liu's voluntariness, did I beg her, besides, we were invited by the Queen Mother, and she Jiang Liu should be delicious and delicious for us! Besides, she is now mixed well, what's wrong with her sister, they grew up together when they were children, and they don't care about any affection, is she still a person?"
Jiang Sheng shook his head: "Second aunt, you are embarrassed to say it, how did Jiang Yan bully others before? How did you treat others before? People are willing to settle you now regardless of their previous suspicions, you can be content!"
"Phew, what did I do to her, if it weren't for me, would she be able to live to this day? No matter what, she Jiang Liu will be responsible to the end, if she dares to ignore her sister, I will hang herself at the gate of the Qi Palace!"
Jiang Sheng secretly scolded the shrew, turned his head and left angrily, the old man was also listening outside, and the words coming from inside were really not like words, and he couldn't help but shake his head.
Jiang Sheng sighed: "Old man, it's too ugly to listen to their scolding, and you don't care? We still live in Jiang Liu's place! What if this reaches Jiang Liu's ears?"
