The tall figure looks a little strong, the slightly darker skin is oily and shiny, a big braid drags on the back of the head, the bright red headband looks very conspicuous, and the not beautiful face has a pair of big eyes, which is full of village ni from any angle. Generally speaking, this kind of country girl who has never seen the world comes to the mansion of this master for the first time, she is either trembling and cautious, or she looks wooden and shrinks. But when Jiang Tian saw this Meng Daya for the first time, he was sitting comfortably on the Taishi chair in the main hall and drinking tea, which was completely the style of the hostess of Jiang Mansion. As for Xinyue and the others, they stood aside with different expressions, not knowing what had happened just now. Jiang Tian glanced around cursoryly and found that there was no Linglong and Qingyou sisters in the crowd, and Xinyue was also looking at the side, indicating that there was nothing wrong with it. Jiang Tian, who was a little settled, began to look carefully at the fiancée who suddenly appeared. It seems that there is indeed a little girl swaying in my impression, but my memory is full of disgust and hatred for this girl, and there seems to be no fragment worth recalling after looking carefully for a long time. And the little girl with pigtails in my memory has nothing to do with the big girl in front of me.

Just when Jiang Tian was still stunned, this Meng Daya stood up and walked in front of Jiang Tian, said a blessing softly with a smile, and then said with a smile: "The master has returned to the house, and the concubine is so polite." ”

Jiang Tian didn't answer, and said to the servants and subordinates around him: "You go and arrange Miss Meng's room, pick some smart ones to serve my cousin, as well as those newcomers outside the door, and after arranging food and accommodation, talk to them about the rules of the house, and everyone else will disperse." ”

As soon as everyone heard it, they all walked away one after another, leaving only Xinyue and Xi Yun, who was hiding behind her just now, don't look at what Jiang Tian said just now, but the information revealed is very intriguing, first of all, he didn't call the other party Mrs., even if he can't talk nonsense because he didn't get married, but at least he didn't need to remind everyone that this was his cousin, so smart people immediately found out that Jiang Tian was not satisfied with this country lady, in fact, if you think about it, you can know, not to mention the group of female porridge porridge in Yihong Mansion, with the current fame of Lord Jiang, It is not difficult to find a daughter of an official eunuch with both talent and appearance, and this Meng girl should pose as a lady as soon as she appears, which is indeed a little self-sufficient.

Originally, ordinary people were embarrassed and angry in public, but this Meng Daya didn't seem to care about being left out, but laughed even happier: "I haven't seen you for so many years, cousin, you still bully your sister like this, how do you do it, the official's temper still hasn't grown." ”

"Bullying you? My cousin laughed, it's a good thing that I'm not bullied by you. Jiang Tian put on a bitter gourd face and shook his head helplessly: "Why don't I remember that there was a family affair between the two of us?" ”

The eldest girl doesn't care about the two outsiders next to her, in fact, she noticed the extraordinary temperament of Xinyue at the beginning, but people are polite to the present so that they can't find any fault, and now it seems that they can stay in this room to listen to the private affairs of the master's family, presumably the identity is not so simple: "How did my brother forget, we have been married since childhood, and at that time I often stole some malt candy to make you happy, but later ......"

Jiang Tian secretly scolded himself for being greedy when he heard it, obviously when she was young, this girl bullied herself like a bad star, and then every time she was coaxed by sugar to not have a long memory, but now when she says it, she knows how to take care of her husband at a young age. However, after Meng Daya said this, those memories that did not belong to her seemed to have opened the floodgates, and many fragments of her previous life were presented in her mind one by one.

Jiang Tian, who knew that he couldn't be reasonable, had no choice but to divert the topic, pointed to Xinyue and the two of them who were still standing aside, and said: "This is my student Miss Feng, who has been managing many trivial matters in the house, and behind her is my godsister, whose original surname is Rong, you can call her Xiyun." ”

Meng Daya was not ambiguous when she heard this, and hurriedly walked over and held Xinyue's hands: "My sister is really hard, my younger brother has never been able to pick up his hands or lift them, and it is really embarrassing for you to take care of this big family, now that I am here, I will share it for my sister in the future." ”

This is said without leakage, which seems to be a very normal politeness, but the word "escrow" is emphatically mentioned in the words, and the meaning of "sharing" is mentioned later, so the explanation becomes: "You are not a lady but you did the work of a lady, and now that I am here, you can go while resting!" ”

Facing the sharp edge in her words, Xinyue just smiled slightly: "Sister said that I laughed, taking care of Mr. is my duty, so why not talk about it." It's my sister's first time in the house.,If there's something you're not used to, just tell me.,I still have some experience in this house.。 ”

In a few words, the two sides have already made a move in the air, and it can be regarded as a tie without a winner. Jiang Tian looked at them and shook his head, he seemed to sense that some kind of change was going to happen in his life in the future. Then he beckoned to Xiyun, who was standing aside, and the two of them walked towards the back house together.

"Brother......" Xiyun stopped talking all the way, and finally seemed to have mustered up great courage to stop Jiang Tian: "That sister really wants to ......"

Jiang Tian knew what the little girl was thinking, so he just shook his head: "I don't know, it is said that my father is in charge of this matter, and I should marry her." But don't say that I haven't seen her for many years, and there is no trace of love between men and women, even if you love me, she is also my cousin, and she should not be my wife from a human point of view. ”

To say that Jiang Tian can still understand the first half of the sentence, but the second half of the sentence is confused, generally speaking, they are cousins from generation to generation, how can there be a problem of humanity? But looking at Jiang Tian's expression, she was very serious, so she had to bury her doubts in her heart. Don't look at the girl Meng has not yet entered the back house, in fact, Jiang Tian's backyard has long been chaotic, led by the quiet sisters, even Linglong has appeared together, listening to the girl in the front yard talk about the words and deeds of this big woman, especially when people see that this deep house compound has no stage fright at all, people as smart as Linglong already know that the other party is not good.

Youlan, who is not deep in the city, pouted: "I don't think it's anything, isn't it just a country girl?" Who can cover Sister Xinyue in terms of knowledge, and there is also Sister Linglong in terms of music and rhythm, that is, between the beds, there is me and my sister in control, she has to look like nothing, and the wild girl who has not learned can still turn the sky upside down? ”

Her sentence "between the beds" made the women's faces crimson, and her sister Qingshuang was so angry that she stretched out her hand and slapped her, but she also agreed with her sister's opinion: "Our master is a Wenqu Xingjun, if he is in the previous dynasty, even if he doesn't take the top prize and the first, he must be a first-class Jinshi, this Meng girl is indeed missing a bit of a fate, but since ancient times, marriage events have been the words of the parents, and now this is a family affair set by the old lady, we can only pray that this lady can tolerate me ......and wait."

She didn't finish her words, in fact, she didn't have to finish them, everyone understood what the words meant, don't look at Jiang Tian's usual lack of master's shelf, but who can guarantee that this Meng Daya is not a jealous and ruthless character, although there are always some stories of second-room and third-room concubines competing for favor with the eldest woman in folk tales, but in reality, because the wife has a legal and moral innate advantage, unless it is the kind of person who is weak and can be bullied, otherwise the concubines can't turn the sky, to put it ugly, it is to take advantage of the fact that the lord is not at home one day, The eldest lady ordered someone to kill the concubine, which is very simple and does not need to pay for her life.

In short, due to the emergence of a fiancée from her hometown, the women who were still full of confidence had a sense of crisis, but they didn't know that this was just the beginning of trouble, and the first thing that gave Jiang Tian a headache was not the cousin, but a handwritten letter from his disabled father brought by Guo Er. When Guo Ershen mysteriously found Jiang Tian and handed over the letter, Jiang Tian immediately had a bad premonition, looking at the crooked simplified military characters in the letter, he was sure that this was indeed his father's handwriting, and it was really difficult for the old man to write so much with a brush with one left hand. In addition to explaining that he should treat these followers of his fellow villagers well, he also focused on trying to rescue the clansmen of the Su family, and said that although the other party regretted the marriage in the past, it was good that he had a good friendship in the Qiandi, although his family was against the king, it would not affect the family, if it was impossible to do anything, there was no need to force it, in short, our family's reputation of repaying grievances with virtue was just spreading. Looking at this letter, Jiang Tian was a little confused, if it was just to get a good reputation of repaying grievances with virtue, he wouldn't be on the cusp of picking this storm? Besides, the matter of repentance is considered a shame among the people, how can my father swallow this breath?

Guo Er seemed to see Jiang Tian's doubts, so he leaned forward and whispered: "The old man doesn't know, the old lady naturally resents him for the injustice of the Su family, but if you are new to officialdom, even if you are a holy family, you also need to have a colleague minister to introduce Austrian assistance, so this will not take the Su family lightly, so the old lady came to tell the master, and besides, Miss Meng has come to the door today, I think that the city of Beijing should soon spread the word that you will abide by the marriage contract and complete the marriage with the cousin who is immortal, so that you can save the Su family. No one will suspect that you intend to humiliate the daughters of his family, and at this time, the court is unstable, and the second-grade adults who seem to be beautiful may also be prisoners of the stairs in the next day, the old lady thinks of the old things of the previous dynasty, and feels that our family has no foundation and friends in the court, and it is not appropriate to marry the adults in the court, so as not to be implicated in the future. ”

Jiang Tian looked at this titular official family dumbfounded, and originally wondered why he was sent to serve him at this time. Don't look at my father as a small landlord in his hometown, but the various ups and downs in the court are also clear, and he has already planned a way to deal with it at home. Meng Daya's appearance not only gave him an excuse not to get married, but also earned him a reputation as a bad wife who did not go to court, and more importantly, made all parties feel that they were tolerant and generous regardless of their previous suspicions. Those who come from their hometown like a married servant, they can also control the food, drink and Lazar of the whole house as much as possible, and the people sent by these fathers are definitely trustworthy people, and they will do something unsavory in the future, and they don't have to worry about not having henchmen to make things happen! Is this still the bad old man I remembered? How do you feel like an old fox!

Looking at the former pro-soldier and the current butler of the Jiang Mansion, Jiang Tian even felt that this old guy must not be simple, otherwise how could he be appointed as a housekeeper by his father. Assuming that he is really the original Jiang Tian, I am afraid that he will not be able to understand the intention of these arrangements at all, but even if he understands it now, he can't accept it calmly, after all, he still has a soul in his heart after four hundred years, but he can't reveal it in the slightest on the surface.

After putting away the letter, Jiang Tian put on an unfathomable smile: "I already know what my father explained, if I remember correctly, Uncle Guo has actually just passed the age of not being confused, right?" ”

Guo Er didn't know why he asked his age, but there was no need to hide it: "The old man really has a good memory, and he has been following the old lady for twenty years unconsciously." ”

Jiang Tian nodded, this was a secret reminder to himself that his identity was also the patriarch of the family: "When Uncle Guo left home back then, he hadn't married a wife, I don't know if he can start a family now?" ”

Thinking of his years of fighting for the country, Guo Er, who had maintained a respectful posture, seemed to be full of infinite energy in an instant, but he immediately realized that he had lost his temper, and changed back to that respectful look: "The tired old man remembers, although some people have come to the door to propose marriage in the past two years, but the villain is not rich in my family, so I didn't move this thought." ”

Although I don't know why he didn't get married, but thinking that this person used his good youth in the war for the restoration of the country, Jiang Tian also sighed for him, thinking of this, he took out a checkbook from his body, wrote a line of small characters on it and signed his name, and then tore off the check and handed it to Guo Er: "This is a thousand taels of silver, you can go to Xinyue to get it with this article, it is considered a junior I thank Uncle Guo for his unwavering righteousness to my father." ”

Guo Er wanted to refuse, but seeing that Jiang Tian's expression didn't look hypocritical, he was not polite, but accepted it happily after thanking him repeatedly. Jiang Tian observed that he did not panic when ordinary people saw a thousand taels, nor did he express his loyalty in a panic. Jiang Tian's evaluation of him is one level higher, this person must have seen the big world, and sighed that this Jiang is still old and spicy. However, he disagreed with the old man's analysis, because no one could guess the delicate relationship between himself and the emperor. The sense of mission to fight for the rise of China for the rest of his life lingered in Zhang Tao's mind, the powerlessness of Chinese society that could never break through the last layer of window paper of the capitalist revolution, and the only self in the world who could understand his good intentions, these conditions made Emperor Zhang Tao's love-hate feeling when he looked at Jiang Tian is really indescribable. Jiang Tian would not be conceited that Zhang Tao did not want to kill him, as an emperor, it was best to maintain a certain sense of mystery for his subordinates, otherwise it would be easy to be used by people with ill intentions. And if you are too far away from the ministers, it is easy to be overshadowed by the ministers, such as Wanli and Yan Song, who love to pretend to be gods and ghosts in the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Jiang Tian is confident that when he still needs to refresh technology in this world, as long as he does not take the initiative to provoke Zhang Tao, then his personal safety will still be guaranteed. And if you have to plunge headlong into the power struggle, you will die without a place to bury.

"You have to intercede for Su Jiyou!" Zhang Tao looked at Jiang Tian in surprise: "If I'm not mistaken, you should hate them, right?" ”

"Not for him, but for his family. Originally, if my family had been exiled to the frontier, I wouldn't have opened this mouth, but this time you want to confiscate them into slavery, which will ......" Jiang Tian hesitated for a moment, and he couldn't find a good reason to excuse them.

Zhang Tao looked at Jiang Tian playfully: "Don't tell me that you are moved by compassion, otherwise why would you only intercede for his family, but others don't even ask." ”

"This ......" Jiang Tian stuttered for a while: "Okay, I'll be honest, in fact, I want to take revenge on his family, didn't his baby daughter write a letter to humiliate me, so this time I want to humiliate her as a benefactor." ”

Zhang Tao didn't believe that Jiang Tian was so boring, but this was also a reasonable reason: "In this case, you don't have to plead, tonight these school-age women in the family of the criminal official will be filled into the official @ prostitute, you will be mixed in as a @嫖@客 at that time, what revenge can you not take if you scatter a lot of money?" ”

Jiang Tian looked at Zhang Tao stunned, he really couldn't believe that this was said by the former revolutionary @life warrior, although he had long known that this was done to kill chickens and monkeys, but after all, the emperor instructed the minister to go to @嫖@娼 This is shocking enough. Could it be that the emperor's pocket money is not enough, and he wants to use this method to return the funds?

As soon as he saw Jiang Tian's expression, Zhang Tao knew that he wanted to be crooked, so he hurriedly coughed and asked the other party to straighten his posture: "Don't think nonsense, I did this to lure the big people behind these people to take the bait, and see who will bid for redemption, these people think that they are hidden behind the scenes, but the thugs who are charging have become prisoners, if they can't protect their families, who will die for them next time." ”

It turned out that this was the case, Jiang Tian understood a rough idea. But he still felt a little unreliable: "Isn't the bidding very fierce according to this?" With my meager net worth......"

Jiang Tian, who originally wanted to continue crying poor, saw Zhang Tao about to get angry in an instant, after all, how much money he had Zhang Tao may know better than himself, just the patent fees and dividends of some products are enough to make any businessman red. So he hurriedly trotted all the way home to raise money.
