Chapter 314: Three Joys (3)

Mother Lin saw that the lights in Jiang Changyang and Peony's room were out, but she didn't dare to lie down, and she had to wait for Peony and Peony to fall asleep. Suddenly, I heard a few gentle knocks on the courtyard door, and then the mother-in-law who guarded the door stood under the porch and said carefully: "Mom, it's from the courtyard of Mrs. ”

Mother Lin frowned, what are you tossing back and forth in the middle of the night? But he didn't dare to slack off, and went out, only to see a teenage girl standing at the door with a lantern, so cold that she shrunk her neck: "Mom, I'll pick up Sister Baixiang." ”

Mother Lin was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Didn't Bai Xiang go back a long time ago?" ”

The little girl was startled and hurriedly said, "No, she hasn't been back since she came here." ”

"Maybe I went somewhere else, you go somewhere else and ask." Mother Lin is not happy, such a big living person, tuǐ grows on herself, is it possible that the entire Guogong Mansion, there is only one place to go to Yingxue Hall? Be all abroad

The little girl said pitifully: "Mother Rongyu, I don't dare to come here to disturb the eldest prince and the young lady, I also thought that I went to other places, but I asked all the way and said that I was not there, so I thought that she was probably here to tell jokes with her sisters and forget the time." If not...... Well, that's it. As he spoke, he looked inside, but his tone was sure that the person must be there.

Mother Lin turned half of her body to show her, and said with a smile: "Even if she wants to stay, our young lady doesn't dare to keep her." Who doesn't know that she is the most powerful in front of Madame, and Madame will use it at any time? If you really can't find it, go back to the steward, ask in every room, and you will find it quickly. ”

"Where the hell did you go?" The little girl stood stunned for a while, and then remembered Mother Lin in front of her: "Disturb Mom." ”

Mother Lin ordered the mother-in-law who was guarding the door to cover the door, walked back to the room and sat down again.

Shu'er and Kuan'er listened carefully, and both said: "It's really strange that a big living person disappeared alive." I'm afraid that I am deliberately provoking trouble, do you want to talk to the lady? "The big girl in the lady's room is gone, but it's not a trivial matter.

Mother Lin looked at Peony and Jiang Changyang's room, and said softly: "Pick nothing and don't do our business, can she do it?" Why wake people up for such a thing? It's never too late to talk about it tomorrow. ”

Shu'er and Kuan'er thought that it made sense, so they both washed their own sleep and didn't mention it.

On the second day, before Jiang Changyi went to greet his relatives, he wanted to worship his ancestors as usual, Peony and Jiang Changyang got up early, and Mother Lin told her what happened last night. Peony didn't take it to heart, where can a big living person go? Most of them have been found. But as soon as the freshening was finished here, a housekeeper came, and she didn't dare to say that she wanted to find Peony and Jiang Changyang, so she only asked Kuan'er and Shu'er if they saw Bai Xiang last night.

This is a knowingly asked, left and right over and over again, Kuan'er and Shu'er were shocked to realize that things were not ordinary, so they went to talk to Peony. Peony thought for a moment, and then asked the woman to go in and reply.

The woman behaved with sincere fear: "I looked for half a night last night, and I haven't seen anyone, because Yingxue Hall is the last place to see her, so I have to ask again." "I said again and again that not only here in Yingxue Hall, but also in other places are the same inquiries and investigations, after all, a big living person suddenly disappeared, which is really strange. It means that she is on an errand, and she is not deliberately coming to trouble anyone.

A girl is gone, and she has to run to the master's house to find it? If she escapes, she must look outside, and if she does not flee, she will not be able to hide. It's clear that she is deliberately finding fault, and someone wants to make her uncomfortable here. Peony Suo said: "In that case, take this mother around this house." ”

The mother-in-law peeked at Jiang Changyang, who was expressionless on the side, and said with a smile: "How dare you?" How dare you? The young lady said that if she was not there, she was not there. ”

Peony smiled slightly: "This house is not mine, I also live temporarily, the corners in it are not clear, let's take a look together." Everyone is reassured. ”

How dare that woman really look at each other? After a few casual glances, he didn't dare to delay the two of them, and hurriedly retreated.

Peony asked Jiang Changyang: "The person is probably really gone, what do you say this is for?" Thinking that Bai Xiang must see her last night, and I don't know what happened, I felt a little uneasy.

Jiang Changyang said lightly: "What does she do?" Just wait and see. Set the meal. ”

The two had breakfast together, and when they arrived at the old lady's place, they saw Jiang Changyi standing by the door in fresh clothes, his eyes a little fluttering.

The old lady inside was scolding Mrs. Du: "This kind of thing happened at the moment, a big living person, and disappeared for some reason, it's really funny." If you don't see it when there are many things in the daytime, and you still have a thought, you don't see it in the middle of the night, and you still don't see it, it's really funny. Torture the doorkeeper. She said two funny words in a row, and her eyes were as sharp as knives. She didn't care about the cypress, and even wanted to pull out the cypress a long time ago, but she couldn't tolerate this accident. I had already decided in my heart that it was Mrs. Du's master and servant.

Mrs. Du hung her head and said, "Yes." He was a little sad again: "Yesterday was fine, I treated her well, how could she escape?" Seeing Peony and Jiang Changyang entering, he turned around and asked Peony: "Danniang, you saw Bai Xiang yesterday, what is wrong with her?" ”

Peony said lightly: "I haven't seen her." I didn't know she had been until later. It was Mother Lin who received her, and I also asked this morning, but I only cut things and left, and I spent less than a cup of tea in Yingxue Hall. Mrs. can ask Mother Lin later. ”

A housekeeper shook her head outside, and Hong'er came back after going out for a while, and said in a low voice: "I found a burned lantern on the rockery in the garden, and some people said that I saw Bai Xiang enter the garden after coming out of Yingxue Hall last night." But there was no sign of her in the garden except for this lantern. ”

Everyone looked at each other and felt that something was wrong. Jiang Zhong immediately decided: "Can you still fly with your wings?" Later, it will be said that it is the most important thing to worship the ancestors first and do great things. ”

So everyone walked outside, and Peony saw that Hong'er took advantage of everyone's inattention, and quickly whispered a word in the old lady's ear. The old lady raised her eyes and looked at her, and Peony was calm in her heart, so she smiled back at the old lady. The old lady lowered her eyes again.

Next, a series of things went smoothly to worship ancestors, get married, and newcomers arrived at home. When Xiao Xuexi was led to confess his relatives, a guest came, congratulated him first, and then gave Jiang Zhong a box of gifts and a letter sent by Jiang Changzhong.

Jiang Zhong didn't care what Jiang Changzhong sent to Jiang Changyi to congratulate him, and he couldn't be too busy to read what was written in the letter. was only busy dealing with the guests, and the guests came more than he expected, although many of them were Jiang Changyang's friends, but there was no cold scene that he was most afraid of.

Mrs. Du was different, and hurriedly confessed to the female guest beside her, and tore up the letter to read. At first glance, her face was full of joy, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, such an obvious act, the people around her couldn't help but be curious, and they all asked her what the happy event was.

Mrs. Du pursed her lips and just smiled, and ordered someone to take the letter to Jiang for re-reading. The more she didn't say anything, the more curious everyone became, and they all pestered her to say it. Mrs. Du reluctantly said: "Zhong'er has made a small contribution. But when everyone looks at her like that, it can't be a small achievement. But she didn't say anything, but said: "Do the right thing, do the right thing, and we'll talk about it another day." It means that this is a good day for Jiang Changyi at this moment, and he will steal the limelight without talking about other things.

Over there, Jiang re-read the letter, and he was also overjoyed. He deeply felt that it was the most correct decision for him to send Jiang Changzhong to the barracks, and the men of the Jiang family were really the most suitable for that kind of place. No, it's only been more than a year, and I've made meritorious contributions again, and I've changed a lot of bad things, and I can also get the appreciation of my boss, this time I became a cloud cavalry captain, although the official position is not big, but he is young, if it goes on like this, the future is needless to say, and the revival of the family style is just around the corner. So Jiang Zhong showed it to the guests intentionally or unintentionally, and some people said that it was the three joys, and everyone had fun and congratulated the host.

Jiang Changyi was a little restless all day, and Xiao Xuexi didn't see much joy on his face. Both of them saluted, greeted, greeted, and saluted like marionettes according to the instructions of the master of ceremonies. Xiao Xuexi, in particular, was resentful. Her heart hadn't recovered from the salute to Jiang Changyang and Peony just now, and the two of them were in love with each other, and the pain that pierced her eyes. Looking at the Jiang family, who needed her to salute and greet, they looked at her relatives curiously, and their hearts were full of contempt and contempt. How unjust God treats her

But suddenly, everyone's attention was no longer on her, and many people were whispering to Jiang Changzhong how he was, and the objects of congratulations were not her and Jiang Changyi, but someone else. This is her wedding, not the Jiang family's other celebration banquets Xiao Xuexi looked at Jiang Changyi angrily, but saw that her husband had a flattering smile on his face, and saluted his relatives seriously, and when someone asked, he didn't forget to praise his two brothers.

Looking at Mrs. Du with a net face and a peony with a sweet smile, Xiao Xuexi couldn't help but feel sad. Yes, what is Jiang Changyi? A concubine, he is nothing in this house, what else can he do if he doesn't please these people? And she is the wife of this concubine. God treats her so unfairly, how can she put this gray rabbit on the shelf?

Jiang Changyi was saluting a respected elder in the clan, but he couldn't hear Xiao Xuexi's greetings for a long time, and couldn't help but look back at his new wife, but what he got were two eyes full of contempt and anger and sadness. The meager joy in his heart suddenly disappeared at all, and became cold and hard.
