Chapter 313: The Shameful Can't Ask for a Daughter-in-law
Jiang Muyuan generally learned about these situations from the secret letter from Tingfeng, but he still pretended to be the first time he heard about it, and said: "On the day I left Beijing, I happened to meet the Yao family brother who sued Miss Jia, but I didn't expect it to develop like this later. ”
"Listening to the tightness in the chest," the Queen Mother took out a piece of candy and put it in her mouth cleanly, "The mourning family slowed down." ”
Xiang Mama looked in his eyes, looking like he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
There was a sweet taste in her mouth, and the queen mother was much more relaxed: "It's not that the mourning family is partial, so many girls, the mourning family looks at them one by one, and it is the most pleasing Yunjin girl." She looks pleasing to the eye, and her speech is funny, and when the mourning family sees her, she has no troubles. ”
Hearing Gu Yunjin's name, Jiang Muyuan's eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles, and he said, "You are right, I think so too." ”
The Queen Mother laughed, pointed at Jiang Muyuan and said, "No shame! ”
"Those who are ashamed can't please their daughter-in-law." Jiang Muyuan replied.
Such a bold statement made the Queen Mother more and more happy.
Seeing that it was getting late, the Queen Mother patted his hand and said, "I won't leave you for dinner, Anyang in the province is anxious." ”
Jiang Muyuan said with a smile: "If you like Yunjin, let her enter the palace more often to accompany you." ”
"The Gu family is busy with happy events, so the mourning family doesn't want to add chaos," the queen mother squinted and smiled, turned back to and said to Mama, "The mourning family only adds makeup, you can arrange it." ”
Mama Xiang hurriedly responded.
Jiang Muyuan got up and retired.
When I left the palace, it was the full moon in the sky.
The streets were lively, the people gathered together, and the most talked about was the group of officials from the two lakes who were escorted back to Beijing today.
The prisoner car passed by from East Street, and Dr. Tea, Mr. Storyteller, and Xiao Er of the Running Hall all looked at the long queue in their eyes, and were talking to the guests at this time.
"Not only the governor, but also five prefects, eight prefects, and even the county officials are all minions," the junior said, "This is still brought back to the capital, and I heard that many of them were beheaded on the spot." ”
In Suxiang Building, the owner asked the storyteller to talk about Cao Feng's case.
"The evidence is conclusive, Lord Cao was killed by this group of corrupt officials in Lianghu! It was only because Lord Cao refused to go along with the dirt that he was vain and waited for him to return to Beijing to file a complaint, so he lost his life," the storyteller sighed again and again, "Lord Cao is a good official!" ”
In the echo, I didn't forget to praise the little grandfather.
If it weren't for the little grandfather to suppress the formation, I'm afraid Xu Shilang and the others would have followed in the footsteps of Lord Cao.
Compared with the people's applause, Yang's heart was pinched.
In the Xianhe Hall, Mrs. Min was full of red light, and praised Xu Yan for her ability, not only curing the water situation, but also investigating Cao Feng's old case, and swept away the black smoke and miasma of the officialdom of the two lakes.
According to Mrs. Min, after Xu Yan returns to Beijing, what awaits him is a brighter future.
Yang's mood was much more complicated, she looked at the food on the table, and she didn't have the slightest appetite.
On the one hand, the Yang family is happy for Xu Yan's achievements in the two lakes, and the promotion of officials, in addition to the qualifications, also depends on the performance appraisal, Xu Yan went to the two lakes for half a year, with such merits in hand, it was finally in vain;
On the other hand, Yang is also worried about Xu Yan, and what her mother said that day is especially in her ears.
This time to clean up the two lakes, the action is really too big, Jin Peiying is on the boat of the Yu family, if the saint wants to be angry about this, the little grandfather will be scolded at most, but Xu Yan is different, although there is still a yellow seal on the top, but the two of them are half a catty and eight taels, and no one can escape when the saint is angry.
If it really comes to that time, who can protect Xu Yan once?
The mother's family can't count on it, and the Yang family doesn't want to talk to the mother's family, thinking about it, the one who can rely on it is Jiang Muyuan.
Xu Yan obeyed Jiang Muyuan's orders, and the two families were close to each other, public and private, Jiang Muyuan should help more or less, right?
Yang pondered and pondered, and the more he thought about it, the more he regretted it in his heart.
Knowing that there would be today, she would never fall out with Gu Yunjin, no matter what Mrs. Min tossed, she would give Gu Yunjin up.
Yang was still distressed, but Mrs. Min became more and more proud, she drank a few more glasses of wine, and now she was slightly drunk, chatting with the maids.
Yang was upset when she heard this, but she and Mrs. Min really couldn't make sense about these officialdom matters, so she simply didn't say anything, lowered her head and drank two glasses of stuffy wine.
In the Ningguo Mansion, the eldest princess of Anyang was in a much more comfortable mood.
I thought it would take a few months for Jiang Muyuan to leave, but it was really a happy thing to come back suddenly.
The eldest princess didn't ask about the others, she only cared about Jiang Muyuan's body, whether she was tired or not, and what her spirit was.
"Don't bother me." The eldest princess laughed.
"How so?" Jiang Muyuan didn't have the slightest impatience, he knew what his mother cared about and what he cared about, so he said it in detail so that she could rest assured.
The eldest princess patted him on the shoulder and said, "Rest for a few more days to recuperate your spirits." ”
Jiang Muyuan said softly: "I can't stay for a few days, and I have to go to Lianghu again." ”
Hearing this, the eldest princess's brows furrowed, and she opened her mouth to dissuade her, but she swallowed the words when she reached her mouth.
She knew her son's temperament, so she had to sigh.
After sighing, the eldest princess of Anyang shook her head helplessly, and said: "I regret it, I shouldn't have prepared for marriage slowly, I married my daughter-in-law into the door earlier, and she tied you up, and it saved you from running here and there all day long." ”
Jiang Muyuan smiled: "Why don't I ask now, see if she is willing to marry earlier?" ”
The eldest princess of Anyang was stunned for a moment, she was not angry or laughing, and pointed at Jiang Muyuan and said, "What are you talking nonsense?" What time is it now, and you are still looking for her? I'm dizzy for you! ”
Jiang Muyuan's smile did not decrease, and he listened to the eldest princess's lecture.
Seeing that the hour was late, the eldest princess said, "Go back and rest, it's been a hard journey." ”
Jiang Muyuan said: "I have to go out of the house again." ”
"Where are you going?" The eldest princess was surprised.
"Jin Zhi and they told me to go to Suxianglou for a drink," Jiang Muyuan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You don't really think I'm going to the Gu family, do you?" ”
The eldest princess of Anyang laughed angrily: "It's nonsense again!" ”
Jiang Muyuan said goodbye to his mother with a smile.
The eldest princess saw him leave, and was about to take the book to look at it twice, when she suddenly paused, turned her head and asked Mama Liao: "Last summer, was there a time when he went out of the house at night and said that he was going to find a daughter-in-law, didn't he play tricks, did he really go?" ”
Mama Liao remembered that time, she pondered for a while, and said: "You were just bluffed by the little grandfather, last summer, he and Miss Gu hadn't said kiss, let alone at night, they might not be able to see it in broad daylight." Now that the Gu family lives in Xilin Hutong, there is a brother and a nursing home in the house, which one will open the door for him? ”
"Yes." The eldest princess laughed.
