When she returned to Jiang's Mansion two years later, Jiang Xinyao was like a world away. Listening to the wind in the Xuan, the tranquility is still the same.

As soon as Jiang Xinyao returned home, before she could change her clothes, she went to Guiyuntang with her parents and two younger brothers to greet the old lady.

The old lady wore a sauce-red home-style sleeved jacket, embroidered with a semicircular group of flowers and longevity on the collar, holding Buddhist beads, sitting on the top, seeing someone from the second room, she rarely showed a smiling face.

Jiang Xinyao looked at it carefully, she hadn't seen her for two years, the old lady looked good, her spirit was okay, but there were many more wrinkles on her face.

While Jiang Xinyao was looking, Mrs. Zhou was also looking at Gu. I saw that Gu was wearing an orange-red sprinkler jacket, a jasper hairpin on his head, a thin powder on his face, and a ruddy complexion, where he looked like a woman in her early thirties.

The old lady sighed secretly, but said with a smile on her face: "Bring Brother Hao to me and take a look, grandmother thinks about it tightly." ”

The nurse gave Brother Hao to the old lady, and the old lady held it in her arms and teased her. Brother Na Hao didn't recognize his life, and when he saw a stranger, he opened his eyes wide in surprise and looked around, and it didn't take long for his saliva to come down.

The nurse's eyes were sharp, and when she saw the second wife's eyes drifting by, she hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the child, picked up the handkerchief and carefully wiped it.

The old lady's hand was empty, but it was not easy to have a seizure, so she only sighed: "It's a year old in a flash, but you have to be lively." Mama Qian, quickly take the longevity golden lock to the second wife, I prepared it a year ago, and I didn't have a chance to give it. Second wife, I have wronged you all these years. ”

Gu Shi hurriedly said respectfully: "Where did my mother say, my daughter-in-law ate well and slept soundly in the old house, where did she suffer the slightest grievance?" But in the past two years, I have not waited in front of my mother. It's really unfilial to only care about yourself, please punish the old lady. ”

The old lady said, "If you have this heart, it's enough." The past, forget about the past, I'm old. I hope that my children and grandchildren can be in front of me, and the family will be reunited, and I will be happy when I look at it. Now that you're back, there's a lot going on at home. Mother will point to you. ”

Gu said: "It is the duty of a daughter-in-law to share her mother's worries. ”

Jiang Xinyao watched her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sing and harmonize, whitewashing the peace, and never mentioned the events of that night, and sneered in her heart.

On the same day, two tables of banquets were set up inside and outside Guiyun Hall, which was regarded as a dust wash for the mother and son. The big room and the second room were all present, and Aunt Zhou did not show up for the first time. All the ladies and relatives were not happy people, so they drank a few cups and moved their chopsticks. And it was scattered.

After the banquet, Jiang Xinyao had just returned to the courtyard on the front foot, and Jiang Yuanchen followed with a solemn expression on the back foot. That Jiang Yuanchen entered the house, only staring at his sister up and down, and looked carefully for a long time. Fang Dao: "Sister, but the murderer surnamed Zhou wants to burn you?" You tell me the truth. ”

Jiang Yuanchen hadn't been to the old house for a while because of his studies, but today he heard that the person next to his father inadvertently revealed a word, and then he wanted to inquire, but the person's mouth was tighter than that thousand-year-old mussel, so he followed closely.

Jiang Xinyao stepped forward and took her brother's hand. pressed him to the chair, beckoned Yinggui to make tea, and said, "Sister won't hide this from you, don't worry, listen to me slowly." ”

That's it. In this way, he told Jiang Yuanchen the ins and outs of the matter.

Jiang Yuanchen listened to it, and was furious, good guy, he rushed to kill people and set fires, this is worth it. Just as he was about to break out of the door, he saw his sister looking at him coldly, forced down the fire in his heart, and said, "Where are those two thieves now?" Why didn't you report it to the authorities? ”

Xin Yao saw that her younger brother calmed down for a moment, and said: "The thief took it away to my father, we know who did it." As for why he didn't report to the official, I think my father has his own plans, and everything is just waiting for my father to decide. ”

Jiang Yuanchen said: "It's really ruthless, fortunately, my sister is alert, otherwise, ......"

"When I think about it in hindsight, I'm also afraid." Jiang Xinyao thought of the firelight that night, and said with palpitations: "I'm afraid that the old lady will protect it." ”

"Hmph, it's all you dead and alive, I really don't know where she got so daring, sister, in my heart, I can't wait to step forward...... Hey", Jiang Yuanchen rubbed his hands, looking eager to try.

Xin Yao said: "Stop, this matter, everything depends on how my father handles it, let's watch it first, don't go beyond the cook, after all, there is a lot involved here." How are you studying lately, but you can be scolded by your husband? ”

Jiang Yuanchen said: "Sister, don't underestimate me, I'm working hard." ”

"Work hard, that's right."

"Sister, I won't let you down, I will revenge this revenge one day."

Xin Yao nodded and said: "The gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late, you are better than the second brother, it is the best revenge for Aunt Zhou." ”

Jiang Yuanchen rolled his eyes, and had to say, "Sister, I can save it." I'll go back first, just come to Dusk Yuxuan to find me if you have something. ”

Jiang Xinyao hurriedly said: "Brother, don't be busy, my sister still has something to ask you, how is the second brother studying now?" ”

Jiang Yuanchen snorted coldly and said: "I am not a gentleman with him, I don't know much, I only heard my classmates say that he spends more time sleeping than he is awake, and his face is not very good, and there is nothing else." In the mansion, in addition to the old lady, he only acted in his own courtyard, and did not walk around with his eldest brother and me much. There are a lot of beautiful women in the yard, warblers and swallows, demons and demons, it's annoying to look at, and my father doesn't care. ”

Jiang Yuanchen spoke, and his anger grew.

"If you want to say that my father is really eccentric, he stares at me every day to study and practice, but he is very conniving at his second brother, and he often has silver to make up for it in private. It's like your brother and me, who are so poor that I managed to save some money, and it also fell into other people's pockets. ”

Jiang Xinyao smiled: "Brother, but are you complaining that my sister took your silver?" ”

Jiang Yuanchen said incorrectly: "Where is it, where is it, isn't it natural to spend money on my sister." ”

Jiang Xinyao said angrily: "Okay, if you really don't have any money, just come and ask my sister for it." Go ahead, it's not early, and you have to get up early tomorrow to practice. ”

Jiang Yuanchen said inch by inch: "Sister, ...... tomorrow's lunch?" ”

Jiang Xinyao tapped her younger brother's forehead and said with a smile: "Let the warbler return to the third master every day, okay?" ”

Jiang Yuanchen was ecstatic, how could he still have the solemn look when he came.

Jiang Xinyao sent her younger brother, returned to the room, and stood silently for a while, thinking about the information she had just received. After a long time, he picked up the book and read it, and he was calculating where Jiang Quan was now, and how long it would take him to come back; Jiang Fu should have arrived in Yangzhou Mansion at this time, how did the shopkeeper find the candidate? What new products will be launched this year? What will my father do with Aunt Zhou and so on? The mind is not in the book at all.

……

On the second day, Jiang Xinyao learned from Li's mother that Aunt Zhou was grounded.

A big crime of hiring someone to commit murder, in the end it is just a grounding, and the old lady is strange to look at her mother and smile so kindly. If it is true that the lives of their mother and son are in the sea of fire, the old lady is afraid that there will be only one sentence: "Life should be like this!" ”

Father, father, is this what you have told me? Where did you leave your mother?

Jiang Xinyao didn't say a word, and went to Qiushui Courtyard with a stiff face. Seeing the Gu family, he opened his mouth and said, "Mother, even if this matter is over?" What the mother thinks, she has to tell her daughter. ”

Gu Shi pulled his daughter over, looked her up and down, and said leisurely, "What are Yao'er going to do?" ”

Jiang Xinyao was angry for a while, and suddenly ran out of words.

Gu Shi said softly: "Yao'er came in aggressively to question her mother, must she feel that her mother is weak and can be bullied?" ”

Xin Yao sighed: "Mother, let her go so easily, she only thinks about us dying." Human life is a major matter, even if a light grounding is an explanation to our mother and son, this is too much to say. I know my mother has a valley in her heart, so don't let me be kept in the dark, okay? ”

Gu Shi pondered for a moment, and his face gradually became solemn.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Whoever did it, you and I know it. Your father came that day and asked me what to do, and I could hear the meaning of his words very clearly. ”

"What do you mean by father?"

Gu sneered: "He wanted to send that Aunt Zhou to the official, but he was afraid of the old lady, the Zhou family's children and the face of the Jiang Mansion, so he came to ask me." I proposed that if the old lady promised not to interfere in your marriage with Yuan Chen, I endured this breath, and then Aunt Zhou was grounded. ”

Xin Yao said: "Mother, why bother to wronged yourself so much, my brother and I are still young. And my father's question is not right, if my mother wants to send Aunt Zhou to the official, how will my father treat him? ”

Gu Shi smiled silently: "In this matter, your father can't be the master." The old lady would not agree to send Aunt Zhou to the official. If I insist on going my own way and insist on sending Aunt Zhou to the official, what do you think the old lady will do to me in the future? Yao'er, mother is not alone, mother has three of you. ”

Jiang Xinyao listened quietly, only to feel that her heart was split in half, half burning with monstrous anger, and half slowly following this reality.

"You're not young, you're thirteen years old, and your mother has to plan for you. This year, there is filial piety in the house, and the old lady has already revealed that she wants your father to return to Beijing to be an official, and the trust is nothing more than the Hou Mansion. Your second sister married Shangshu Mansion, and it was also the thread drawn by the Hou Ye. Mother doesn't want your marriage with Yuan Chen to become a pawn in the hands of others. ”

Xin Yao was stunned for a while before she said, "The old lady just agreed?" ”

The expression on Gu's face was very strange, and he said with a smile: "She had to agree." As long as your father sends those two thieves to the official, the government will check down the vine, and Aunt Zhou will not be the first to escape. The old lady has hurt Aunt Zhou for all these years, how can she watch her fall into trouble? ”

Xin Yao was still unwilling to say: "Mother, my Yiyuan was destroyed by a fire in vain? The old lady doesn't have a saying? ”

"She gave your father twenty thousand taels of silver, and your father gave it to me."

Jiang Xinyao sneered: "Silver? Tens of thousands of taels of silver? Mother, are our three lives so worthless? ”

Gu Shi said with a sad face: "Yao'er, people have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries, and no one's life can go smoothly." Some bitter, some difficult, you must taste it yourself, God will let you go. Why bother to be obsessed with who gives you hardship and who gives you hardship, this is all fate. ”

Jiang Xinyao's heart sank, and she called: "Mother? ”
