Jiang Xiaonian didn't mind, she had no affection for the Jiang family's uncle, and the old lady of the Jiang family killed the original owner, if she didn't want to brush Jiang Mengliang's heart, she didn't want to come here at all.

The old man in the porter walked to Jiang Li, who was setting up the table, and said, "Madam, the master's younger brother is here and is waiting at the door." ”

Jiang Li said with a disgusted face: "What is he doing here?" Do you still want to eat a feast? Just the little wild vegetables he sent, it's not a shame! ”

"I said I came to congratulate the old lady on her birthday."

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say, what did he take to celebrate his birthday? It's not that you can't eat enough to come here to eat? After a pause, he said: "You take him to meet the old lady, and let him leave after the meeting, when the time comes, there are guests at home, if you see him called a flower child, you must not laugh at our family!" ”

The old man at the porter thought for a moment and said, "He is dressed quite decently this time, in a brand new linen clothes!" There was also a basket in his hand, which was covered with a cloth, and I don't know what was inside, but it should not be wild vegetables. ”

When Jiang Li heard this, although he was a little puzzled, he still said impatiently: "Even so, let him leave quickly after seeing the old lady, our Jiang family can't afford to lose this person." ”

The old porter was instructed and went to the door.

"Come in with me."

Jiang Mengliang and Jiang Xiaonian followed the old man in the porter all the way in, Jiang Xiaonian was still a little curious when he came here for the first time, and looked around.

This is a two-way courtyard, which is not particularly large, but compared to the broken adobe house of the Jiang family, it is simply a world of difference.

This is also the first decent house that Jiang Xiaonian has seen since coming to this world.

Out of the corner of his eye, the old man of the porter glanced at Jiang Xiaonian who was looking around, and sneered in his heart, sure enough, he had never seen the world.

Old Lady Jiang was meditating in the study at the moment, thinking about what he would say in front of the guests today to reflect his knowledge.

After hearing the old man's message, he ordered to meet in the antechamber.

Although Old Lady Jiang has never been concerned about this useless son, today is his birthday, and his son came to pay his birthday with things, and his eldest elder's psychology was still satisfied, and he didn't give Jiang Mengliang a look.

Although he didn't give a face, he didn't have much enthusiasm.

Jiang Mengliang's father and daughter stepped forward to say hello to the old man, and after seeing Jiang Xiaonian, the old lady Jiang asked in surprise: "Didn't she disappear that night?" How to ......"

Jiang Mengliang was also a little surprised: "Dad, Xiao Nian came back that night, wasn't he still at home the next day?" ”

"Is that so?"

Why didn't he know? And after that night, the old wife and son at home were sick for a month, and after they got better, they still muttered from time to time that Jiang Xiaonian was dead, and her tone was very firm.

Old lady Jiang didn't delve into this issue, if he didn't die, he didn't die, and it had no impact on his life.

"You came to celebrate your birthday today, and I also received your wishes, and I will go to the daughter-in-law of the Li family to receive twenty yuan later, and go home."

In Mrs. Jiang's heart, Jiang Mengliang came to congratulate him on his birthday, just to come and spend some money, today is his birthday, he is in a good mood, and it doesn't hurt to give him a little money.

As for the wild vegetables he sent, they were worth two or three cents at most, and now sending him back for twenty cents is already generous enough.

These words made Jiang Mengliang's heart very uncomfortable, except for the most difficult time, when he brought his whole family here to no avail, other times, even if it was difficult, he did not open his mouth to ask him for money, and now he actually heard such words, and his heart was aggrieved and panicked.

Jiang Mengliang's face was a little bad, but he didn't want to talk too heavily on his father's birthday, so he only put the basket in his hand on the table and said, "This is a birthday gift prepared by my son, we don't need your money, if it's okay, we'll leave first." ”

Old lady Jiang didn't expect him to say this, so he didn't care, he just waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

Jiang Mengliang originally wanted to go to see Mrs. Jiang, but was told that he was very busy now and had no time to see him.

But when I was about to go out, I met Jiang Li's daughter, Jiang Xiaonian's cousin of the same age.

The two little girls are both six years old, but their dresses are very different, Jiang Xiyue is wearing rare silk clothes, and there are hair accessories made of jade on her head, and her skin is also fair, and she looks very smart.

It is said that when Jiang Xiyue was born, although it was not fifteen, the moon was big and round, and it was very bright, so it got this name.

Jiang Mengcheng was very happy, thinking that this was a good sign, indicating that Jiang Xiyue would be able to live a happy life in the future, and even the whole family would soar.

Although Jiang Xiyue is young, she can see at a glance that she is a beautiful embryo, even more than her little aunt Jiang Liren.

This strengthened Jiang Mengcheng's belief in cultivating her, and felt that with the appearance of his daughter, he would not be a problem to marry a county official in the future, even if he married a prefect.

Jiang Xiyue's temperament has become very domineering under the favor of everyone, and if there is anything unsatisfactory, she has to have a big temper, no, because she didn't eat the pastries she wanted to eat during the New Year, she ran out directly, and came back after a night, which made the family anxious.

It's just that after coming back, his temperament has become much more docile, and he no longer plays with a child's temper like before.

In the past six months, she has rarely taken the initiative to learn embroidery and piano, and she really has a little bit of the demeanor of a young lady.

At this time, the shocked look on Jiang Xiyue's face completely destroyed the beautiful demeanor she had maintained for more than half a year.

She looked at Jiang Xiaonian with an extremely exaggerated expression, almost speechless.

After a long time, she pointed at her and said, "You! Why didn't you die?! ”

Jiang Xiaonian hadn't seen Jiang Xiyue yet, and now when she heard her ask, she felt a little funny.

"What's wrong? You seem to think it's a pity that I didn't die. ”

Jiang Xiyue stared at Jiang Xiaonian with both eyes, then took two steps back, shook her head vigorously and said, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!" ”

Just when Jiang Mengliang's father and daughter looked at her suspiciously, she actually ran away.

Both of them found it inexplicable.

Even if you hear the old lady say that she is dead, there is no need to react so much, right?

The father and daughter didn't care, but walked outside the house.

At this time, it was close to noon, Jiang Xiaonian did not go home directly, but went to the Qian family restaurant to have a look.

Business was booming in the restaurant, and there were a lot of people crowded into a small storefront, and there were still people waiting outside.

It was obviously not enough to run the hall, so Qian Dehou asked another young man to help inside.

And he himself was busy in the kitchen.

Jiang Xiaonian walked directly to the kitchen.

She has been here many times, and others don't think it's strange, they just think it's a relative of the restaurant owner.

"Xiao Nian, you're here, I'm busy here, you greet yourself."

Jiang Xiaonian looked at the sweaty Qian Dehou and wondered if he was going to expand the store.
