Chapter 280: Two Brothers Meet
It's just that because he didn't say a trace of himself clearly, the old lady couldn't help but run into a soft nail, and she didn't know how to refute it for a while, which seemed a little self-deprecating.
And Jiang Fengmo has always been connected with the old lady's mother and son, so naturally he couldn't see his mother unhappy, so he smiled and came out to play a round: "The eldest brother has become more and more capable over the years. It's not like my brother who stays at home all day.,Although it's a lot older.,But the knowledge hasn't grown at all.。 ”
"It's no wonder that the emperor thinks so highly of the big brother, and gives such an important matter as this autumn test to the eldest brother with confidence. Yun Xuanyunsi, you two must learn from the uncle with an open mind, and if you become an official in the future, you must also do your best for the country like the uncle. ”
"Yes. Father. Jiang Yunsi immediately responded.
It's just that Jiang Fengmao listened to Jiang Fengmo's words, and his heart still flashed with displeasure, but he still looked at his younger brother with a smile, and carefully hid his faint murderous aura in his eyes.
"Now that your brother and his family have come to Kyoto, you now also ask Jingxian and Aunt Tang to prepare a courtyard for them, so as not to let outsiders see our family's jokes." The old lady saw Jiang Fengmao but smiled silently, so she opened her mouth quite anxiously, now that she has the support of her son's family, the old lady has really become unafraid, besides, her son is now sitting in the Guogong Mansion, does Jiang Fengmao still want to drive the couple back?
Hearing this, Jiang Fengmao replied with a smile on his face: "Mother's words are very true. A few days ago, my son was also thinking about this. It's just that the second brother and I have separated back then, and if I come to Kyoto to visit relatives this time, then there is naturally no problem with the Kosumi Gunfu.
But listening to what my mother just meant, it seems that the second brother moved his family to Kyoto, and it is somewhat inconvenient to live in the Kunigong Mansion for a long time. I have already asked Aunt Tang to clean out a courtyard in the north of Kyoto first, and let my second brother and younger siblings live there for a few days, and it will not be too late to move out when they find a suitable house in the future. I don't know what my mother and second brother think? ”
"You!" The old lady didn't expect Jiang Fengmao to think about driving her son out of the country mansion again, and immediately stared at Jiang Fengmao angrily, at this time, she couldn't wait to eat him alive immediately, and pinched the Buddha beads in her hand with one hand, and the bone joints were obviously turned white, which shows how big the anger in the old lady's heart is at this time, I am afraid that Jiang Fengmao will be killed by Zhao Duqi now.
"The eldest brother really thinks more far-reaching than the younger brother. The younger brother originally only thought about Yun Yunsi, so he came directly to Kyoto, but this move did not take into account that it would cause so much inconvenience to the eldest brother. Now that the eldest brother can come up with such a way to get the best of both worlds, it really solves the embarrassment of the younger brother. Mother, you say yes. But Jiang Fengmo was not angry at all, but looked extremely happy.
accepted Jiang Fengmao's proposal, and actually comforted the old lady in turn, hoping that she could understand and accept such an arrangement.
The old lady withdrew her gaze at Jiang Fengmao at this time, and instead looked at her son with a smile on her face, and after half a salary, she gradually put away the anger on her face.
Then he said to Jiang Fengmao in a plain but commanding tone: "That is the case, it is better to give the title deed of this courtyard to your brother and sister-in-law as a meeting gift." They stay at home all the year round and don't want you to be an official in the court for many years, and you have only lived on some rents all these years, and now you have to support me, an old woman who has no one to take care of all the year round, which is really not easy. ”
After listening to the old lady's words, Jiang Yuanliu couldn't help but have a sneer in his heart, he really couldn't see the current situation clearly.
Now Jiang Fengmao is in charge, but the old lady wants to control Jiang Fengmao everywhere here, and wants to suppress him in everything, which is really ironic.
What's more, the meaning of the old lady's words just now is obviously that she wants to say that Jiang Fengmao has been greedy for bribes all year round, and such an unfounded and unfounded judgment may attract Jiang Fengmao's hatred for her more.
Sure enough, Jiang Yuanliu noticed that after Jiang Fengmao listened to what the old lady said, the shallow smile in his eyes quickly flashed a trace of anger.
Then his slightly cold voice sounded in his ears: "Mother also knew that when the family division was deliberate, all the fields and property of the Jiang family were distributed to the second brother, and now these other courtyards are all the dowries of Yuanliu's mother." These will be dowries for Liu Er in the future, and the son must not give it to the second brother, and please forgive the mother. ”
This sentence immediately blocked the old lady's idea of continuing to accumulate money.
After all, even if the old lady has the support of her son, she does not dare to openly oppose the Fuguo Mansion, otherwise the emperor or the eldest princess will be angry, and I am afraid that the future of her two grandchildren will be buried in her hands like this.
It's just that she was rejected by Jiang Fengmao and Jiang Yuanliu one after another, and the old lady's face couldn't hold it after all, and her face was already extremely ugly at this time.
But Jiang Fengmao didn't pay attention to her, but said to Jiang Yuanliu gently: "Liu'er, your wedding is coming, you have to prepare for yourself well, see what is missing, even if you let Aunt Liu add it, you must not let people laugh at it, my Jiang Fengmao's daughter must marry in a beautiful way."
If there is nothing else to do recently, try to stay in your own yard, you must know that you are not like the original now, now your status is noble, from now on, you must have the consciousness of being a little Hou Ye and Mrs., don't wait until you enter the Gu Hou Mansion to make others laugh. ”
Although this sentence was said to Jiang Yuanliu, it was also said to other people, so that they would not bother Jiang Yuanliu recently, so as not to make Jiang Yuanliu unhappy, thus indirectly offending Gu Jinshu and Chu Nanshan.
"Miss, the Duchess sent someone to send some fabrics, please go back and check them." At this time, Tang Wan walked in with a smile, saluted the old lady and the others, and immediately returned to Jiang Yuanliu.
Jiang Yuanliu glanced at Jiang Fengmao, and after seeing him nodding in agreement, he stood up with a light smile, and blessed the old lady and the others slightly, and then said shallowly: "The granddaughter will retire first." ”
After speaking, he exited the inner room with Tang Wan.
"Is it true that my aunt sent someone to deliver something?" On the way back, Jiang Yuanliu looked at the three Chun Tao with a ghost smile on their faces, and asked with some doubt in his heart.
"That's ...... Nope. The slaves were just worried that the young lady would be bullied inside, so they came up with such a method. Miss, do you say that the slaves have become wiser under your teaching? Chun Tao came to Jiang Yuanliu with a shy face at this time, smiling and wanting to ask for a reward.
"What a ghost." But Jiang Yuanliu only stingily rewarded her with a snap of her fingers, and then smiled at Chun Tao and pouted with an aggrieved face, only to feel that the mood that had been suppressed in that room just now was very good.
"The young lady will bully the slave maid." Although I was taught a lesson, I didn't forget to mumble, looking at Chun Tao's appearance as a little daughter-in-law, even Teng Zhuyue and Dongmei couldn't help laughing.
It's not enough, when everyone just stepped into the courtyard gate, they saw Mama Xia quickly greeted her with a smile on her face, and immediately said when she saw Jiang Yuanliu: "Miss, you can be regarded as back, Miss Yun Yao has been waiting here for a long time." ”
"Yun Yao? Could it be that my cousin is looking for me? Listening to Mama Xia's words, Jiang Yuanliu couldn't help but feel a trace of worry in her heart, but seeing Mama Xia smiling at this time, it didn't seem to be a bad thing.
"Miss Cousin sent Miss Yunyao over to give Miss a complete set of bridal backs. I'll put it in the side hall and wait for the young lady to check it out. Seeing Jiang Yuanliu's eyes puzzled, Mama Xia immediately explained.
It's just that her explanation actually caused Chun Tao and several people to laugh.
"You crazy girls, what are you laughing at here? I didn't have a serious day in the day, so I went back and sent you out. As she spoke, even Mama Xia herself couldn't help laughing, and the courtyard was immediately filled with laughter.
Jiang Yuanliu also let them mess around here, and he was the first to walk into the attic and quickly came to the side hall, and really saw Yun Yao standing in the side hall, and after seeing her walk in, he immediately stepped forward and saluted: "The slave has seen Miss Biao." ”
Jiang Yuanliu nodded lightly and motioned for her to get up, then looked at Yun Yao with a gentle expression and said with a smile: "I've kept you waiting." ”
Yun Yao saw that Jiang Yuanliu was still in a good mood, and walked to the table with a light smile, lifted the red satin that covered it, and immediately revealed a set of back pillows that were neatly stacked inside.
smiled and said: "Miss Cousin, Miss asked the slave to send you a complete set of mandarin duck water satin backs and pillows. Miss originally wanted to send it herself, but yesterday an old lady ordered Miss to stay in the room all the time, so she sent a slave to come. ”
Listening to Yun Yao's words that seemed to be deliberately leaked, he couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw Jiang Yuanliu's brows, and then asked, "Is my cousin good?" Why did my grandmother suddenly stop her cousin from leaving the house? Can't even my kingdom move? ”
Hearing this, Yun Yao only shook her head, saying that she didn't know the reason for this matter, but just took out a wax-sealed letter from her sleeve and handed it to Jiang Yuanliu, and then explained: "Miss asked the slave maid to hand over this letter to Miss Table in person." ”
After receiving the letter, Jiang Yuanliu immediately tore open the wax seal, took out the rice paper folded inside, opened it and looked at it carefully, the dark color on his face became heavier than when he entered the door just now.
