Chapter Eighty-Six: Reunion
Old Madame Hou recalled his two salutes, and her chest overflowed with a breath of blood.
What a cunning and cunning wretch!
Leaving the Pingsu Marquis Mansion, Jiang Ji went to Wanfu.
took advantage of the place of Wan Jingdong, the eldest son of the Wan family, to clean himself up.
Wan Jingdong saw that he was still a little loose in his clothes, and frowned: "How much weight have you lost?" ”
Jiang Ji tightened his belt, trying to look energetic.
Hearing this, he didn't raise his head, and said indifferently: "I was in time on the road, I didn't eat well, and I got fat after two days." ”
Wan Jingdong sighed.
Jiang Ji said: "Uncle is at home?" ”
Wan Jingdong understood what he meant, and said, "The emperor summoned me, and my father entered the palace early in the morning. ”
"But my mother is at home, and you and her are the same."
Jiang Ji followed Wan Jingdong to see Mrs. Wan.
When he entered the door, he knelt down, slammed his head on the ground, and said solemnly: "Thank you for taking care of my sister, I dare not forget the great kindness in this life, but if there is an order, I dare not resign." ”
"What is this?" Mrs. Wan hurriedly stepped forward to help, and scolded him angrily: "Stand up quickly!" ”
Jiang Ji raised his head and showed a generous smile, and stood up with the support of Mrs. Wan.
Counting the time when Jiang Lingran's letter was sent out of Beijing, and then looking at Jiang Ji, who was thin and out of appearance, Mrs. Wan said worriedly: "How did you rush back all the way?" ”
After receiving Jiang Lingran's letter, he must be like an arrow, and he can get to the capital from Yangnan Pass as soon as a month.
Catching up with the snow and ice weather will be delayed for several days.
But it only took him twenty-four days!
The hardships on the road are self-evident.
Jiang Ji said with a smile: "Uncle Niang knows, my riding skills are better than those next to me, and it is normal to be on the road for a few days." ”
Mrs. Wan couldn't laugh.
Aside from his face, he suppressed the tears in the corners of his eyes.
Wan Jingdong is busy with the atmosphere.
After each sitting down and drinking half a cup of tea, Mrs. Wan said, "I know what you think." ”
"Your uncle and I originally meant the same thing, but she didn't agree with this snow, so she had to do it."
Jiang Ji thought of her sister, and her smile was soft and sour for a while: "My sister is gentle, and in order to take care of the dignity of the two mansions at the moment, she will not have the slightest complaint even if she bears all the grievances." ”
said and laughed at himself, and said a little confused: "But I haven't learned half of my sister's gentleness, and I have always repaid it!" ”
When Mrs. Wan heard this, the big stone that was pressing on her heart finally relaxed.
Although they feel sorry for Jiang Lingran and want to stand up for her, they are outsiders and have no name.
But if Jiang Ji comes forward, everything will be logical!
Thinking of what the Pingsu Marquis Mansion had done, he smiled coldly for a while, and said meaningfully: "Your uncle is in his position, and he will seek his job!" You can rest assured. ”
The corners of Jiang Ji's eyes were moist, he got up, lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed again.
Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, crossed his eyebrows, and fell into the brocade carpet of flowers.
To say that it is not touched is false.
In times of crisis, the closest relatives watched from the wall, but it was the blessing of the Wan family, which became the last bit of warmth for my sister in the capital.
Seeing him like this, Mrs. Wan was angry and helpless, and reprimanded: "The man has gold under his knees!" ”
"Kneel down to the Son of Heaven, kneel down to your parents, how can I make you kneel and kneel?"
"Don't hurry up yet!"
As a good friend, Wan Jingdong understands Jiang Ji's mood.
When he knelt down, he was helped to his feet.
deliberately didn't see him crying, and quipped: "One head after another, when my mother is the golden body molded in the temple?" ”
Mrs. Wan glared at Wan Jingdong with disgust and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, beware of the Bodhisattva's blame." ”
Wan Jingdong hurriedly shut up.
Jiang Ji returned to his heart like an arrow, reluctantly said a few more greetings, got up and said goodbye: "Come to visit my aunt and uncle another day." ”
Mrs. Wan knew that he had Jiang Lingran in his heart, so she didn't keep him, so she asked her to take out the supplements that were going to be sent to Baoshan and let him take them back by the way.
Jiang Ji thanked him and accepted it.
Wan Jingdong sent it to the gate of the mansion and said, "Jiaojiao said that the fourth sister is looking for a house, and you will be able to move back to the city in the near future." ”
said with a somewhat sad sigh: "I have suffered my purse, and I have to spit out a large amount of silver to buy a housewarming ceremony." ”
Jiang Ji knew that he was deliberately amusing him.
smiled very face-saving and slapped him on the shoulder: "I won't accept it if it's too shabby." ”
Wan Jingdong wrinkled his face and cried poorly.
Jiang Ji couldn't help laughing and said with a smile: "Please drink when the time comes." ”
Wan Jingdong's eyes lit up, and he agreed: "I can't ask for it!" ”
"You're not at home, I can't even find a serious drinker."
Jiang Ji smiled and left.
On the Zhuangzi, Jiang Lingran was looking at the monthly account sent from the dowry shop.
The more I looked at it, the tighter my brow wrinkled.
Even the fake is so obvious, she really doesn't understand anything!
It seems that if she wants to really hold the shop in her hands, she needs to clean it up.
Xiang Zhu took a look at it, and the dense words made people have a headache.
Seeing that Jiang Lingran's face was not good, he hurriedly took a cup of tea, took the account book, and said with a smile: "The girl has been watching it for a long time, let's take a break with a cup of tea." ”
Jiang Lingran was seeing the key point, and his eyes suddenly became empty.
When he looked up and saw a cup of tea, he said helplessly: "Don't make trouble, I haven't finished reading it yet, give it to me." ”
"Don't give it!" Xiang Zhu walked a few steps away with the account book, and said: "There will be a confinement in a few days, I don't care how you bother at that time, not now." ”
Jiang Ling glared angrily: "Do you give it or not!" ”
Xiang Zhu didn't want to give it, but he didn't dare to really go against her will, he was hesitating, and he saw Qingyu running in three feet high, her mouth was almost to the root of her ears, and she danced and said: "Girl, girl, Childe is back!" ”
Jiang Lingran stood up abruptly and asked eagerly, "Are you serious?" My brother is back? ”
It's only been the twenty-fourth, how is that possible? Jiang Lingran couldn't believe it, but he was afraid that Qingyu would really say what he was joking.
Within a breath, a heart clenched and hung high.
Qingyu nodded and said with a smile: "Really, really, I saw it, and I am dismounting!" ”
Jiang Lingran grinned.
At the same time, his eyes were red.
Her heart was sour, the corners of her mouth couldn't help it, she sniffed and wiped her tears with her sleeve, bypassed the desk and ran to the door.
Xiang Zhu hurriedly said: "Girl, you are not wearing a cloak!" ”
Jiang Lingran couldn't care about whether she was cold or not, she just wanted to see her brother quickly.
The footsteps were fast and urgent, and when he stepped on the threshold, he was tripped up, and he was busy holding on to the door frame to stand firmly, and he heard a gentle and smiling teasing: "What's the hurry?" I don't run. ”
Jiang Lingran looked up.
I saw a man in a navy blue shirt standing outside the courtyard gate with his hands in his hands, smiling dotingly.
It's not Jiang Ji, who is it.
The regrets, thoughts, guilt, and regrets of the previous life all collapsed at this moment.
Jiang Lingran's tears kept falling, she choked up and called "brother" and ran over and threw herself into Jiang Ji's arms.
