Chapter 136: Bold Guess
"One hundred and thirty-five Jinshi Bridge?" Jiang Xiuyuan asked.
"Yes, that's what he said." Jiang bowed his head gently, "Mother, do you know which one it belongs to?" β
Mrs. Li said with a solemn face: "Are you sure you heard it right, it's No. 135 Jinshi Bridge?" β
Ruyu was also beside her at the time...... Dad, mother, is there anything wrong with this person? β
"There is indeed a problem." Mrs. Li raised her head and said, "This mansion is on the edge of the imperial city, it is very famous, it has been empty for decades and no one has lived in it, could it be that the owner of the mansion has returned?" β
"It should be." Put Xiuyuan down the teacup, twisted his eyebrows and said, "Anyway, this person also saved Rou'er, I'll take Junjie to go tomorrow...... The identity of the person who can live in that house is not simple, and I prepared the Dushan jade rockery carving that I got before. β
"That's not preparationβ"
Jiang Xiuyuan raised his hand and stopped Mrs. Li's unfinished words, "Listen to me." β
"Daddy." Jiang shouted softly, the rockery carved from Dushan jade is very realistic, my mother bought it back for 10,000 taels of silver, it was originally intended to be a gift to the dean of Haotian Academy in the capital, so that my brother could go in, it was too much of a loss to give it to that disciple, he was not worthy!
"Dad, you don't have to give it so good, that person, that person is molesting me, he is a disciple!" Jiang blushed softly, "Don't look at the talent, your mind is dirty!" β
"What you say is true? You report your uncle's name, and he still dares to tease you? β
"Rou'er, he didn't do anything to you, did he?"
The husband and wife asked at the same time.
Jiang shook his head gently, "No, it means that I will save my life and promise him, I left before I could report my uncle's name, but it was a little strange to talk to his little servant." β
"Master, listen to Rou'er, such a person, his character is too bad, Dushan Yu is too wasteful to give him, just go back and pick up some things!" Mrs. Li was also reluctant to give that piece of Dushan jade, she really gave it to this man, where did she go to find Dushan jade, but the dean only loved Dushan jade.
Who knew that Jiang Xiuyuan waved his hand, "No, just send Dushan Yu and take Guiyun Zhenren's painting as well!" β
"Masterβ" Mrs. Li shouted anxiously.
"These things are enough to repay him for saving Rou'er, and the two will not owe each other in the future, in case he really comes to the door to propose, we will refuse."
Mrs. Li was not stupid, she immediately understood Jiang Xiuyuan's intentions, and comforted her daughter: "Listen to your father, otherwise if he really comes under the guise of a life-saving benefactor, we will really not refuse." β
Speaking of this, Jiang Qingrou suddenly blushed and said, "By the way, mother, my aunt may come over tomorrow to propose marriage, so that you will be at home tomorrow." β
"Good!" Mrs. Li had a happy look on her face, "Master, don't you know, today, Wu Zhankui's wife came over with Geng Ti, and asked to marry our family Rou'er, I refused, and people didn't hear it, and they said that his son was so good, and if he really wanted to be so good, he rushed to his aunt and concubine, and there were many girls and children in the capital to let him choose, and it was our turn to be Rou'er?" β
A flash of disdain flashed in Mrs. Li's eyes, "As far as her son is concerned, I'd rather Rou'er be an old girl at home than marry her!" β
"Okay, make a family appointment with Xin'er tomorrow, so you don't have to be afraid." Jiang Xiuyuan said and got up, "I'll go to the study first." β
β¦β¦
The next day, Jiang Xiuyuan asked for leave, and after breakfast, he took his son Jiang Junjie to No. 135 Jinshiqiao, there was only one old housekeeper in the house, and the young man his daughter said was not at home.
Originally, I wanted to put down my things and leave, but the old housekeeper didn't want to, so I had to let them say it in person.
The other party is a benefactor, and when it comes to this again, Jiang Xiuyuan has to wait with his son.
The old housekeeper let the maid serve tea, snacks, and fruits.
Jiang Xiuyuan was taken aback by the crystal clear lychee pulp on a fruit plate, who doesn't know that lychees are produced in the south and are very easy to spoil, even if it is the Pingnan Hou Mansion, it is impossible to casually serve a large plate of lychee pulp to the guests, what is the origin of this family?
Then when he saw a plate of dim sum served, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Please wait." β
"What's wrong?" The maid asked puzzled.
Jiang Xiuyuan swallowed and foamed, "This plate of dim sum, this plate of dim sum is made by the chef in the house?" β
"yes, what's the problem?"
"No, no, I've never eaten this kind of dim sum, and I look strange for a while, and I want to ask where the chef for this dim sum came from, and we want to find something similar when we go back." Jiang Xiuyuan explained casually.
"Oh, the chef is from Jiangnan, this dim sum is his unique craft, you may not find a similar one."
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll just ask casually, dim sum, I don't pick it." Jiang Xiuyuan smiled.
The maid's words not only did not let him get an answer, but even more confused, he clearly remembered what the old eunuch said at the time, this dim sum is called Mantang Cai, which is made by the unique secret recipe of the imperial dining room, because the method is unique, and only this person in the world can make it.
Could it be that the old eunuch lied?
It's not necessary, it's just a plate of snacks, do you use it?
Eyes glide over the colorful dim sum, maybe just look alike?
After all, it's been so long, and it's not impossible to remember wrong.
When the maid went out and there was only the father and son left in the room, Jiang Junjie looked at his father suspiciously, "Dad, is there anything wrong with this snack?" β
Jiang Xiuyuan snorted and pinched a piece of dim sum, "You taste it first." β
Jiang Junjie didn't know what he felt, but the moment Jiang Xiuyuan was in the mouth of the dim sum, he knew that he had not guessed wrong before, the taste of this dim sum was exactly the same as the taste of the plate full of color that the emperor rewarded Li Xin a while ago!
Jiang Junjie has also eaten this dim sum, but he doesn't like sweets, and he doesn't remember what the dim sum looks like, but this unique taste makes him remember, "Dad, we've eaten this dim sum, and it's not very delicious, isn't it?" β
Jiang Xiuyuan ignored him, clenched his fists, and looked solemn.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xiuyuan had a bold guess in his heart at the moment, but he really couldn't believe it was true.
Hearing his son's question, he shook his head, "I'm fine, you sit down, don't be crooked, show me your best side, dare to spoil my good deeds, I will send you back to the northwest to accompany your grandfather and your uncle!" β
Jiang Junjie was anxious when he heard this, after seeing the prosperity of the capital, he was not willing to go to the desolate wilderness in the northwest again!
"Dad, I listen to you."
Although I don't know why, Jiang Junjie knows how to choose what is beneficial to him.
Jiang Junjie was not a person with much perseverance, he sat for half an hour, and after the maid changed the tea, he quietly relaxed his body, "Dad, I'm tired, just rest for a while." β
