Chapter 52: Face
The dancing girl twisted her slender and soft waist and approached the main table step by step, Jiang Yucheng sat upright, her eyes followed her. I saw her slowly pick up the wine jug, lean over to pour wine for Jiang Yucheng, and then approached him with a wine glass.
The dancer's red lips lightly said: "Since Lord Jiang came to Quansui, he has devoted himself to the well-being of the people of Quansui, which is really a blessing for me to the people." Although the slave is in the boudoir, he has already heard of the virtuous name of Lord Jiang who loves the people like a son, and now he presents this glass of wine to the adult to show the slave's admiration for the adult. ”
As he spoke, the wine glass was already close to Jiang Yucheng's lips, and at this time, the dancer suddenly stumbled, and her body fell softly into his arms.
"Ahh As if he had expected this scene, Jiang Yucheng quickly dodged to the side, and the dancer fell on the table with a wine glass, making a heavy muffled sound.
This scene happened very suddenly, everyone present was shocked, and looked at the dancer who fell to the ground, only to see her lying on the ground motionless, and the wine glass she had held in her hand rolled half a meter away.
Jiang Yucheng sneered and called Chang Sui, and said: "Stop the rules, you send this dancing girl to Mrs. and hand it over to Mrs. Master Bookkeeper to deal with, just say that Master Wu took a fancy to her when he watched the song and dance, and he wanted to take her into his backyard." ”
Zhi Gui hurriedly took the order, picked up the dancer who had fainted and went straight to the backyard.
Master Wu was so anxious that he couldn't speak, he stomped his feet and came down from the banquet, "My lord, don't do it." That dancing girl is Jin Yuhong's daughter-in-law Jin Yuqingqing, this is all done by Jin Yu's family, it really has nothing to do with me. ”
Jiang Yucheng looked at him coldly, and did not answer, and Deng Xiancheng on the side said: "Old Wu, old Wu, you are really dizzy, the adult refused to call the dancer to help the fun early in the morning, why didn't you listen?" Deng Xiancheng decided not to mention the identity of the dancing girl, and only blamed Master Wu for not listening to persuasion.
Master Wu shook his head and defended: "My lord, this matter really has nothing to do with me, it's all Jin Yu's family, she has always wanted to give her daughter to the adult as a concubine." After being rejected by my wife last time, I found my mother-in-law Song's place and promised her some benefits without telling me, which allowed her to sneak into the county office. ”
No matter how Master Wu explained, Jiang Yucheng ignored it, and a good reception banquet was tossed like this, and everyone had no intention of staying any longer.
The men's side dispersed, and the women's side was lively.
Zhigui carried Jin Yuqingqing to the backyard, and the ladies who were laughing were taken aback. Mother Jiang looked at Zhigui curiously and asked, "Zhigui, you are not waiting for you adults in the front yard, why did you carry a woman over." ”
Zhi Gui said loudly to Jiang's mother and Yan Niang: "Old lady, madam, Master Wu fell in love with this girl when he watched the song and dance, and said that he wanted to be accepted into the backyard as a second wife, and the adult ordered me to send her over and hand her over to the master bookkeeper's wife." ”
After hearing this, Song Shi got up and retorted sharply: "You are talking nonsense, how could my master fall in love with a dancing girl." ”
Zhi Gui spread his hands, "If Mrs. Master Book doesn't believe it, you can go to the front and ask Master Wu." ”
"You..."Rao is usually no matter how sharp the Song clan is, she can't find the words to refute, in front of so many people, it is impossible for her to go to the front yard to confront Master Wu.
"Ouch..."
At this time, the dancer lying on the ground moved her body and woke up leisurely. She rubbed her head and struggled to sit up. Only then did Song see her face clearly.
"Hmph, I really think it's my lord who has a crush on a dancing girl, it turns out that Lord Jiang has taken a fancy to himself, and he doesn't dare to tell his wife."
Of course she knew why Jin Yuqingqing wanted to come here, and her eyes kept staring at Yan Niang when she spoke.
Yan Niang's face turned pale, and she asked, "What did the adults in your family say?" ”
Zhi Gui repeated the previous words loudly again, this time focusing on the three words of Master Wu's book to accentuate the tone. Yan Niang's face softened, and she looked at Song Shi and said, "Mrs. Master must have heard it clearly this time, if it is not clear, the wives present can repeat it for her." ”
Mrs. Deng Xiancheng immediately chimed in: "Yes, yes, we all heard clearly, this dancing girl was taken by Master Wu, and she wanted to take it home to make a second room." ”
Song Shi pointed at her and said angrily: "Jiang Shi, don't talk nonsense. ”
Mrs. Deng Xiancheng laughed, shook her handkerchief and asked Mrs. Dian Shi: "Laneige, let's talk about it, did the little brother who stopped the rules just now say that Master Wu wants to accept this girl as the second room?" ”
Mrs. Dian Shi nodded with a smile.
Song was so angry with the two of them that she almost vomited blood, she glanced at Jin Yuqingqing, who was still wooden, and suddenly raised her hand and slapped her. "A shameless slut, he dares to hit the old lady with his idea."
Jin Yu Qingqing was stunned, "Mrs. Wu, you..."
"What are you, my mother wants to see today, what kind of fox kung fu do you know, the soul of the man who hooks is gone." While scolding, he went to pull Jin Yuqingqing's clothes.
Jin Yuqingqing resisted hard, and vigorously pushed Song to the ground, and Song made a gesture to hit her again. Yan Niang looked at the chaotic scene in front of her, and scolded loudly: "Enough, this is the backyard of the county magistrate's mansion, not the Wu family, Song's family, you want to rectify the concubine's room, please take it home to rectify it." ”
When Song Shi heard this, he stopped doing it, and shouted: "Madam, this Jin Yu Qingqing is here for adults, how can I bring her back?" ”
Yan Niang was about to speak, when she heard Jiang's mother say: "Obviously, your man wants to take a concubine, but you pushed it on my son, the old woman has lived for decades, and she has never seen such a strange thing." ”
After speaking, he said to the rules: "Go and invite Master Wu and take these two women away, the old woman feels upset when she takes a second look." ”
He replied yes loudly, and then ran away.
After less than a cup of tea, Jiang Yucheng and Wu Zhuji came to the backyard. As soon as she saw her son, Jiang's mother pointed to him and said, "Son, you quickly let him take his wife and concubine back, what is it like to cry and make trouble in our house." ”
Jiang Yucheng smiled, "Mother, don't worry, Master Wu will take them away immediately." ”
After speaking, he looked at Master Wu, whose face was pale, "Master Wu, isn't it?" ”
Master Wu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes." ”
The Song clan still wanted to make a fuss, but after seeing Master Wu's knife-like eyes, he suddenly didn't dare to say anything more. Jin Yuqingqing refused to leave, she changed her previous soft appearance, and quickly rushed to Jiang Yucheng and knelt down, "My lord, please keep me, whether it is a slave or a maid, I am willing, as long as I can stay by my side." ”
Jiang Yucheng took two steps to the side, as if he was kneeling in front of him something dirty. Yan Niang is not angry, Jin Yuqingqing is not very old but not thin-skinned, and he recommends a pillow in front of so many people, which is really an uneducated thing.
"Miss Jin Yu, I don't care what your purpose is for sneaking into the county government today, but Master Wu has already admitted to accepting you as a concubine, and I ask you to save some face for Master Jin Yu and Master Wu, otherwise..."
She didn't say the rest of the words, if Jin Yuqingqing was smart, she would climb down the pole. But Jin Yu Qingqing is not a smart person, not only is she not smart, but she also likes to delusion what does not belong to her.
Looking at Yan Niang's domineering and beautiful face, the hatred and jealousy in my heart took root at this moment, and it grew into a towering tree in an instant.
"Nie, you shameless jealous woman, you are jealous of my youth and beauty, and you are afraid that I will enter the mansion Lord Jiang will be infatuated with you, so you will try every means to drive me to the mansion of Master Wu." She pointed at Yan Niang hatefully and scolded: "Jealous woman, you are not good..."
"Smack."
Qi stepped forward and gave her a slap with a stiff face, and the last unspoken word "death" was scattered by the slap.
Jiang Yucheng looked at Master Wu angrily, "What's the matter, still waiting for the official to personally send someone to your mansion?" ”
Master Wu shook his head in a cold sweat, "My lord is angry, I'll take them away, I'll take them away." ”
Master Wu took Song and Jin Yu Qingqing and left, and the rest of the people also took the opportunity to disperse. When only the Jiang family was left in the backyard, Yan Niang glared at her husband and rushed back to the room angrily.
Jiang Yucheng was a little helpless, he never let Jin Yu Qingqing touch him from beginning to end. Mother Jiang sighed, "Cheng'er, our family has finally become prosperous, don't learn from other officials, and provoke any indiscriminate people." ”
Jiang Yucheng was even more helpless, okay, he had to listen to his mother's words.
Jiang's mother urged him to go to see Yan Niang again, and said some good things to coax her, so as not to make a family harmony for outsiders. Without her reminding, Jiang Yucheng will also go.
Yan Niang will sulk in the house, but she is not angry with Jiang Yucheng. Jin Yuqingqing's words really made her very uncomfortable, she was not worried that Jiang Yucheng would change her mind, but she felt that this world was too unfair to women.
She couldn't understand why rich and powerful men had to have three wives and four concubines, and their wives could only silently endure the concubines to divide their own men?
When Jiang Yucheng came in, she lay on the table unhappily and didn't look at him. Jiang Yucheng hooked his lips, but he didn't expect that his wife, who had always been gentle and graceful, would also be petty, which surprised him a little.
Jiang Yucheng told Yan Niang what happened at the reception banquet without the slightest concealment, Yan Niang turned her head and said: "I'm not angry with you, I'm angry that Jin Yuqingqing is indecent, and I'm angry that you men are always greedy and not satisfied." ”
"Alright, don't be angry." Jiang Yucheng gently hugged her from behind and said softly: "You don't have to worry about other men, you just need to take care of me." ”
Yan Niang turned around and hugged him, leaned her head on his chest, and sighed, "Do you know what people outside say about you?" ”
"What did they say?"
"Say you're scared." Yan Niang was a little dissatisfied: "I also said that I am a tigress, and I don't let you take a concubine, and even the maid and wife who serve at home are ugly and buy." ”
Yan Niang said: "Today, I invited those subordinate wives to come, and I specially called Taozhi and Qingyang Jiao out to serve, just to let them see if our maids are ugly or not." ”
Hearing this, Jiang Yucheng couldn't help but laugh dumbly. Just now, I was surprised that she was petty, and this will see her childish side again, Jiang Yucheng feels that she is much more alive than usual.
He likes to be alive like this.
