Chapter 44: The Wang's Question

Jiang Liu agreed with the nurse's suggestion, but also understood her sister's uneasiness. In my sister's heart, the Jiang family is unreliable, and her grandmother and aunts are the closest people to her besides Jiang Liu. It's not something that can be reversed immediately by a few words from a nurse. So, Jiang Liu, holding his sister's hand, said word by word, "Stay-'er-listen-sister-sister-." ”

Anyway, the deed of the shop and the grange is in his own hands, and if my sister doesn't come back, then I will wait for my tongue to be sharp and then grab it back. Jiang Liu can't wait to grow up now, wants to run his own shop, and shows his ambitions before the crossing and the grievances of the past few months after the crossing.

My sister listens to her, who should she listen to? Jiang Muyan was at a loss.

Qiaoxiu also said, "The slave maid is just to give the girl a reminder, and you still have to make your own decisions on what to do." If the girl doesn't know what to do, she should talk less, watch more, think more, and it's not too late to come up with an idea when she understands it. ”

That is, there is no need to ask her grandmother to go back to the shop, Jiang Muyan's heart is a little relieved.

Seeing the three girls like this, Zhao Qiaoxiu understood that these things had to depend on her six girls, and hoped that the old lady of the Wang family could live a long and healthy life, waiting for the six girls to grow up.

When the carriage entered the king's house, it was already dark. Jiang Liu, who picked up the curtains, couldn't see the layout of the Wang family's courtyard clearly, but judging from the door to the place where his grandmother lived, the Wang family's courtyard must be smaller than the Jiang family.

When my mother married my father, my grandfather was a waiter in the Criminal Department, and he was in a high position of real power in the Six Ministries; Although his maternal grandfather was a Hanlin scholar who was quite popular with the emperor, he was just a literati who helped the emperor draft the edict, and had no real power. In this way, the mother can marry the father of the most beautiful man in the capital, in fact, it is a high marriage, so the Wang family prepares a rich dowry for the daughter, after all, in this dynasty, the amount of the dowry represents a woman's confidence.

But now that my grandfather is dead, and he still bears the name of disrespecting the emperor who is angry with him, the eldest Bo Ding is worried about the expiration of his term but his career is hopeless. On the other hand, the Wang family, the eldest uncle is the secretary of the Guozijian office, and the second uncle is the head of the most famous private academy in the capital, Qingjin Academy, so now the position is reversed, and the Jiang family is not as good as the Wang family.

Jiang Liu stood in the position of the Wang family and considered it, would they think that this daughter had lost money and wanted to recover the dowry to reduce the loss?

"Old lady, the cousins have arrived."

The maid's joyful and crisp voice interrupted Jiang Liu's contemplation, and he was carried out of the carriage by the nurse and entered the warm and bright hall.

The first feeling that this house gave Jiang was that he was worthy of being a scholar! Unlike Jiang's family, which uses a shelf or screen as a partition in the room, a tall four-story bookshelf is used here, with books of varying thickness on the shelves and calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls.

After Jiang Liu and his sister saluted their grandmother, they saluted their aunt, and then greeted each other with two cousins, a cousin, and three cousins.

Like the Jiang family, the Wang family's meals are also divided into men's and women's internal and external tables. Unlike the Wang family, the Wang family strictly abides by the rules of eating, sleeping, and silent, and there is no sound at all when eating. Jiang Liu felt that the advantage of this rule was that she could concentrate on her meals and not have to be distracted to deal with the care and inquiries of her elders.

After her sister filled her with a bowl of her favorite dishes, Jiang Liu, holding a steamed bun in one hand and a spoon in the other, began to eat slowly. She hadn't eaten two bites before there was a noise in the room.

"Shhhh

The grumpy aunt Kong Shi saw that her niece was holding a spoon and hadn't stuffed the food into her mouth for a long time, so she was panting in a hurry.

"Ahh

When Jiang Liu finally stuffed the food into her mouth, Wang Youying, the eldest cousin who was as quick as her mother, let out a long breath.

It's just so unruly. Mrs. Wang raised her eyelids and glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law and eldest granddaughter, and the two immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look at Jiang Liu, because they were afraid that they would not be able to help it and stuff a bowl of vegetables into her mouth.

Xiao Jiangliu, who was eating slowly, pretended not to understand anything, and ate with a smile and fragrant eyes. The granddaughter, who had always been noisy, suddenly became so quiet and well-behaved, which caused Mrs. Wang to take a few more looks. At this glance, she was shocked to realize that her little granddaughter's small appearance is more delicate than Yan'er, and she will definitely be able to move the capital when she grows up.

It's a pity that the Jiang family was defeated, otherwise with Liu'er's appearance, he would have entered the palace.

After the meal, the leftovers were removed and the cold was burned, and Mrs. Wang called Jiang Liu, "Liu'er come over and talk to grandma." ”

"Sister Yan'er, I have something good for you to see!" The eldest cousin grabbed Jiang Muyan.

Seeing that they were going to separate themselves from their sister, Jiang Liu reached out and grabbed his sister's little hand, and his voice was timid, "Sister." ”

My sister rarely came to her grandmother's house, and she was scared. Jiang Muyan clenched her sister's little hand and declined her eldest cousin's invitation, "Eldest cousin, Yan'er will accompany her grandmother first, and then I will look for you later." ”

Old Madam Wang waved her hand and said, "You all go, Yan'er and Liu'er stay and sleep with their grandmother tonight." ”

The eldest aunt Kong hurriedly said, "Phantom Shadow will go back with his younger brothers first, and then my mother will take your sister Yan'er back to play with you later." At this time, Tu Nan should also be sleepy, and his younger siblings should also take the children back to rest. ”

Wang Tunan, the third man of the Wang family, is five years old this year, is the second uncle's concubine, because the second uncle's mother Meng only gave birth to two daughters, Meng took the concubine to the main house, and raised it personally. Seeing that her mother-in-law was silent, Meng took her two daughters and concubines to retire first, and Wang Youying of the big house and her younger brothers Dalang Wang Tuyuan and Erlang Wang Tuzhan also retreated.

After everyone left, Mrs. Wang opened her mouth to catch up with her eldest daughter-in-law, "You can go too." ”

"The daughter-in-law is gone, so you don't have anyone to serve tea and pour water, and the daughter-in-law really wants to have two nieces and wants to take a few more looks at them." Kong's dead skin refused to leave, and stepped forward to hug Jiang Liu's and rub his chin vigorously, "Mother looks at Liu'er's little appearance, it's really getting more and more outstanding!" ”

The eldest aunt's palms were sweaty, and there was an indescribable smell of fat powder, Jiang Liu didn't like it very much, and wrinkled his little face aggrievedly, "It hurts." ”

"Oops, this little Jiaojiao!" Kong let go of his hand and sat down.

Jiang Liu, who returned to her sister's side, thought that her grandmother would drive away her eldest aunt, but who knew that she acquiesced to her aunt staying. Because of this, Jiang Liu had to reassess the status of his eldest aunt in the Wang family.

Mrs. Wang asked her two granddaughters to sit on either side of her before she asked Jiang Liu, "Liu'er, did you see your mother in the Buddha Xiang Pavilion the day before yesterday?" ”

Jiang Muyan lowered her head, and Jiang Liu nodded vigorously, "Hmm." ”

Old Madam Wang clenched her granddaughter's little shoulders excitedly, and her voice trembled a little, "How does your mother look, what did she say to you?" ”

Jiang Liu whispered, "Didn't-say." ”

"Liu'er, what kind of clothes is your mother wearing?" Kong didn't believe that Jiang Liu's ability to see ghosts in broad daylight, especially in places such as Foxiang Pavilion.

Jiang Liuben wanted to say white, but when she saw the nurse secretly using her fingers to bind the book with the earthy blue thread, she said, "Blue-color." ”

"What do you mean, get out!" Kong Shi saw Jiang Liu's small movements, and shouted loudly.
