Chapter 53: Intent

Capital

Ling Jiming was about to go home after leaving duty, Yongyi Hou sent someone to ask him to go to the Hou Mansion, he asked Chang Sui to go back to Ling's house to inform Fan Jin, and then got into the carriage of Yongyi Hou's Mansion.

When he arrived at the Yongyi Marquis's mansion, he was led to the study of the Yongyi Hou, the last time he was scolded by the Yongyi Hou here, this time he couldn't help but think about whether he had made any big mistakes recently.

Just when he was nervous, Yong Yihou spoke: "I heard that you got married before marrying Jin'er?" ”

I didn't know what Yong Yihou meant by this, Ling Jiming nodded stubbornly.

Yong Yihou said again: "You have a daughter with your ex-wife Nie, and she married your classmate Jiang Yucheng after leaving with you, right?" ”

Ling Jiming nodded again.

He plucked up the courage to ask Yongyi Hou, "I don't know why my grandfather mentioned the Nie family?" ”

Yong Yihou glanced at him, and said unhurriedly: "There is news from the palace that Concubine Xiang is already two months pregnant. ”

Ling Jiming raised his head in surprise, quickly reacted, and said to Yong Yihou: "Congratulations grandfather, Concubine Xiang's baby will definitely get what she wants." ”

Yong Yihou was very satisfied with Ling Jiming's attitude, and smiled at him for the first time. Ling Jiming was immediately flattered, but he still had doubts in his heart, wondering why Yong Yihou wanted to mention the Nie family and Jiang Yucheng.

Yong Yihou quickly solved his doubts, "Concubine Xiang Niangniang's pregnancy is hard, and she is no longer able to be distracted to take care of the second prince, so she thought of choosing a four- to five-year-old girl from her mother's family to enter the palace to accompany the second prince, if I remember correctly, the eldest daughter born to you and the Nie family is now exactly five years old." ”

Hearing this, Ling Jiming thought for a while before he understood what Yongyi Hou meant. Accompanying the second prince is fake, and pulling Zhang Yuanqing into their camp in the name of accompanying the second prince is his ultimate goal. After all, Zhang Yuanqing was Jiang Yucheng's teacher, and he was brought to Jiang's house by the Nie family.

His heart became mixed, and it turned out that he could only play a role in the middle of Yongyihou.

"Grandfather, to tell you the truth, when I made peace with the Nie family, I allowed her to leave with my daughter, and now my daughter has changed her surname to Jiang."

Yong Yihou snorted coldly, "It is natural for a son to follow his father's surname, how can your daughter take another family's surname." I give you a month, and in a month, I will see your eldest daughter. ”

Ling Jiming left the Yongyi Marquis Mansion in despair, and after returning home, he locked himself in the study. Fan Jin felt that something was wrong with her husband when he went to the Yongyi Marquis' mansion, and thought that his grandfather Yongyi Hou had reprimanded him.

She went to the study with the chicken soup, Ling Jiming was in a daze with a pen, and the paper in front of her was blackened by ink.

"Husband, if your grandfather says something that you don't like, don't take it to heart." She put down the tray and said softly: "My grandfather is a military general, and he speaks more bluntly, but it is always for your own good." ”

Ling Jiming looked at her when he heard this, and said with a faint expression: "Do you know what he said when he called me to the Hou Mansion today?" ”

Of course Fan Jin didn't know.

Ling Jiming smiled self-deprecatingly, frantically crumpled the paper in front of him, and said angrily: "He has always looked down on me, a petty official who is a good grade is regarded as a charity to me, and now he still treats me as a microphone, am I really so unbearable?" "The word unbearable almost came out of his teeth.

Fan Jin was taken aback by his appearance, and hurriedly reassured: "Husband, what happened, grandfather... To whom is he going to speak? ”

Ling Jiming was like an eggplant beaten by frost, "Who else can I know in the officialdom of the Great Banquet Dynasty?" ”

"Zhang Yuanqing?" Fan Jin asked tentatively.

Ling Jiming shook his head, then nodded again, "Almost." ”

Fan Jin was even more confused.

Ling Jiming said, "My grandfather wants me to take Nie's daughter back. ”

This sentence exploded in Fan Jin's ears like earth-shattering thunder, and she took a few steps back in disbelief, "You... What did you say? ”

Ling Jiming repeated the meaning of Yongyi Hou, Fan Jin shook his head in disbelief, "No, my grandfather won't do this." ”

Ling Jiming looked at her expressionlessly, "If you don't believe it, you can ask him personally." ”

Fan Jin walked out of the study in despair, and went to the Yongyi Marquis's mansion early the next morning, Yongyi Hou's meaning was not much different from what Ling Jiming said, she couldn't accept it, and she fell ill when she went back.

Ling Jiming looked at his wife's haggard face, a little unbearable, "Jin'er, grandfather has spoken, we can only listen." Don't think about it, take care of yourself as soon as possible. ”

Fan Jin stared at the head of the bed and asked in a low voice, "Do you have to take it back?" ”

Ling Jiming didn't answer, but the silence represented affirmation.

Fan Jin covered her face and cried, "When Nie's daughter comes back, what am I, and what are Wanwan and Junjun?" Tears flowed down her fingers, and she said poignantly: "Why does my grandfather have to do this, can't I let the girl from the Yongyi Marquis Mansion go to the palace to accompany the second prince?" ”

Of course not, Ling Jiming replied in his heart. Yongyihou's purpose was to win over Zhang Yuanqing, not to feel sorry for the great-grandson who was born with a leg disease.

After crying, Fan Jin vented the grievances in her heart, and with the comfort of her husband Ling Jiming, her illness quickly improved.

She said to Ling Jiming: "After the daughter of the Nie family comes back, she can only be written into the family tree as a concubine, no matter what, my Wan Wan is the eldest daughter of the Ling family." ”

Ling Jiming nodded in agreement.

He wrote a letter and asked Ling Sanniang and his wife to bring it to Jiang Yucheng in the name of visiting relatives.

On the other side, Yan Niang, who was far away, didn't know that Yong Yihou had a full idea. In a few months, Man Man will be five years old, Jiang Yucheng discussed with her, and is ready to enlighten Man Man in person.

There are two Jinshi backgrounds, Lord Jiang personally enlightened his daughter, and Yan Niang only felt that it was overkill. Jiang Yucheng refuted her for the first time. It is said that no matter how sharp the knife is, it needs to be useful to be a sharp weapon, and his full of knowledge has been deposited for a long time after coming to Sui, if he does not take it out and use it, I am afraid that he will regress.

Of course Yan Niang doesn't believe it, who is the person who still wants to read books every night before going to bed? Jiang Yucheng's full thoughts still moved her very much, I'm afraid that the biological one is like this.

Manman likes to paint red very much, the little girl is a jumpy character, Yan Niang thought she would not be able to sit still, who knew that Jiang Yucheng assigned the homework, she completed it every day.

Seeing this, Yan Niang planned to let her even learn Nu Hong, but Man Man didn't seem to have any talent for embroidery, so Yan Niang only taught her some basic things.

A few days have passed, Jiang Yucheng's enlightenment has begun to bear fruit, she has learned to write her own name and the nicknames of her younger brothers, and her father and grandmother can write and recognize a few words, although the writing is crooked, but it is also very good.

Yan Niang and Jiang Yucheng sighed, "Fortunately, you are here, otherwise she would have been delayed." ”

Jiang Yucheng said with a smile: "No, the brilliance of the sun and the moon will never be replaced by the light of fireflies." As he spoke, he said, "He is full of tenacity in doing things, which is somewhat similar to his biological father." ”

When it came to Ling Jiming, Yan Niang felt a little complicated in her heart, and complained: "What are you mentioning him for, where can he be a full father." ”

Jiang Yucheng patted her hand, "Don't be angry, I don't mention him." ”

Yan Niang muttered in a low voice, "You are really a person, why do you mention him, don't you feel awkward?" ”

"What's awkward?" Jiang Yucheng was a little puzzled.

Yan Niang glared at him twice, he thought about it and suddenly understood, took his wife's hand and said with a smile: "It's not awkward, but there is still jealousy and taste." ”

His smile faded, "It's all about making people, if I was the one who married you since childhood, we wouldn't have gone around in such a big circle." ”

Yan Niang heard him talk about this for the first time, and said curiously: "According to what you say, if we are married, what will Sister Leng do?" ”

Jiang Yucheng said: "When she was young, she was delicate and frail, and the fortune teller said that she had to find a person born in the month of the tiger to marry, otherwise she would die young." My father felt sorry for her, so he asked me to marry her. Although Jiaojiao and I are husband and wife, we are actually brother and sister. She always felt that she was dragging me down, and she didn't want to marry me, but it was my cousin who cried and forced her to agree. After getting married, she began to ask people to ask for suitable girls, but I refused, because I didn't want to find someone at random at that time. ”

Yan Niang looked at him in surprise, and Jiang Yucheng continued: "The night we got married, I dreamed of Jiaojiao. She told me in her dream that she was very happy to see me married, and asked me to treat you well. ”

"Is this true?" Yan Niang asked in disbelief, "Did you really dream of her?" ”

"It's true, I woke up and thought it was incredible." Jiang Yucheng nodded and said seriously: "Lady, in the future, you will follow me to call Jiaojiao cousin, I believe she prefers this title." ”

Yan Niang was stunned, "Husband, this is not in accordance with the rules." ”

Jiang Yucheng knew that she was taking into account the feelings of her mother and cousin, so she immediately proposed: "In this way, you can call her cousin in front of me, and you can do it as usual in front of your mother and cousin." ”

Yan Niang nodded, gently hugged his waist and whispered, "Husband, you are so good." ”

You have never been stingy in giving me warmth, you have never treated me coldly for no reason, and you have never disliked me for being a second marriage. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have experienced the beauty of being a wife, and if it weren't for you, I would still be in the abyss of pain.

Jiang Yucheng gently touched her head, lowered his head and printed a kiss between her eyebrows, and the two hugged each other quietly, enjoying a rare quiet time.

……

The golden potatoes from Yunze Country grew happily, from short shoots to lush vines, and it took about a month to grow. Song Xiu recorded his growth with a pen, from sowing, germination to adulthood, and drew the corresponding plant morphology behind.

Jiang Yucheng arched his hand at him and said: "According to Brother Song's posture, sooner or later, I will have a great expert in agricultural affairs at the banquet." ”

Song Xiu accepted his salute calmly, "Thank you for your praise." He looked at the farmland in the distance and said loudly: "My Song Xiu's greatest wish is that under the whole world, everyone can have a full stomach, and the official warehouse is a good seed." ”

Listening to his bold words, Jiang Yucheng also had a sense of pride, and he said in his heart: If all officials can think about the people, maybe I can witness all this in my lifetime.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, the stop rule came to report: "My lord, there is a guest at home, and Madame asks you to go back." ”
