Chapter 529: One Misstep Becomes a Thousand Hatreds
The family arrived in Qujiang Town at noon. The yard is small and there are many people, so I have to squeeze in.
The old horse led a few subordinates to live in the east wing, and no one dared to wronged him. Lu Man and Jiang Zhanwei live in the landlord's house, Jiang Yue lives in the west house, and the middle hall house serves as both a living room and a dining room. Jiang Jiu lives in the north house of the west wing, and a pair of people live in the south house.
The old horse had already heard Jiang Yue brag, saying how big the river behind the yard was, how big the big boat above was, and how fun it was to take the big boat at night. During the meal, the old horse said that he must take the big boat with "lights and lights" at night to play.
This is also something that Jiang Yue has been making trouble for a long time, Jiang Zhanwei nodded and agreed, and would take them to play at night.
Jiang Yue talked about the little villain brother who lived next door, beat himself, and asked the old colt to help him fight back. She doesn't remember the name of her little brother, only the fight.
Lu Man also remembered the naughty little boy Xia Fan. Because the Xia family was a party of the Wang family, the head of the family was beheaded and the main family was exiled. And General Xia's family is a family relative, and he was demoted to a concubine and returned to his hometown, and his children are not allowed to go out of office within three generations.
Then he said, "That kid is no longer here, he has returned to his hometown." ”
The old horse said proudly, "Look at how powerful Taizu Zu is, as soon as he heard that I was coming, he was so scared that he went back to his hometown." ”
Jiang Yue thought so deeply and looked at his great-grandfather with admiration.
After the meal, the old children went to rest, Jiang Zhanwei went to the camp, Lu Man took someone to pack up the things they brought, and asked Mama Wang to send the things she brought to the Zhang family, the Fan family and other good people. After that, I listened to Jiang's sister-in-law's report.
Jiang's sister-in-law was sent by Lu Man two months ago, mainly to help Lu Fangrong with the purchase of dowry, decoration of the yard, furniture, purchase of household goods and other affairs.
Lu Fangrong is busy, and his two sons are one of them is in the country, and the other is in the academy. He was unwilling to let Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu help, and he didn't trust the descendants of the Lu family in the capital. The old servant here couldn't use it, so he had to ask Jiang Zhanwei, and Jiang Zhanwei asked Lu Man to find someone to help.
Sister-in-law Jiang is the son of the Hou Mansion, her parents are in charge, she was still the second-class girl of the third lady when she was not married, she is neat and capable, and she understands the home aesthetics and many things of a large family.
She said that the dowry was all completed, plus the gift of 1,000 taels of silver, a total of 2,000 taels of silver. The courtyard of the Lu family is basically decorated, the furniture is still close to finishing work, and the daily necessities, various ornaments and other things are almost neatly purchased, and the total cost adds up to nearly 1,000 taels of silver......
She blushed a little, "That's all that can be done with so much silver." ”
Lu Man praised her a few words, and rewarded her with ten taels of silver.
When the old children got up, Lu Man led them out of the back door surrounded by a large group of guards and subordinates.
Jiang Jiu and Jiang Yue held hands, Brother Jun was held by the nurse, and Lu Man personally held the old man and walked more than 20 steps away from the river.
Afraid that something would happen to the old man, Lu Man strictly stipulated that without the consent of Jiang Zhanwei and himself, the old man was not allowed to leave the back door of his house a hundred steps away, let alone near the river.
The river breeze in late autumn is cooler, but the afternoon sun is strong, and it still feels very comfortable. The Qujiang River is winding and vast, and there are many large and small boats driving on the river, which is not at all different from the beautiful Mirror Lake of the Eldest Princess's Mansion.
The old colt shouted again, "Only my daughter-in-law, I want to take a big boat." ”
Before Lu Man could speak, Jiang Yue preemptively said, "Taizuzu, the big boat with lights at night is more fun." ”
The old colt said wisely, "I want to take both the big ship with the lights and the big ship with the lamps." ”
Hey, it can be like this!
Jiang Yue looked at Lu Man.
Unreasonable with the old child, Lu Man flickered, "The boat here is not ours, they don't dock, and they can't get up." Wait for the evening, and then go up at night when you dock. Let's go, I'll take you to the town to buy something delicious. ”
Of course, Jiang Jiu was more willing to go shopping, and immediately laughed. said to Jiang Yue, "My aunt brought silver in her purse to buy bamboo toys for Yue'er, and wooden chickens for Brother Jun'er." He glanced at the old colt and said, "Buy delicious food for my grandfather too." ”
Jiang Jiu enjoyed the feeling of buying things with his own money.
The group went through the back door of the house and went out through the front door. On the way, Lu Man greeted familiar people.
Compared with the deep house compound, Lu Man prefers it here. You can go out at will, you can meet different familiar faces when you go out, and there are not so many respects and etiquettes when chatting, everything is the casualness of ordinary people's lives.
I bought some fresh fish, shrimp, vegetables, melons and fruits in the town, and a few old and young children bought some food and play before returning home.
Lu Man was interested, and went to the kitchen to make a golden prawn and steamed fish himself.
In the evening, Jiang Zhanwei and Lu Fangrong came to the house for dinner together.
For several old children, Lu Fangrong, the real in-law, is not as popular as Zhao Yi. After greeting each other, they walked away.
During the meal, Jiang Zhanwei and Lu Fangrong were at the same table, and the others were at the same table.
When Lu Fangrong listened to Jiang Zhanwei's meaning, it was unlikely that he wanted to take Jiang Zhanwei's class, and he was very depressed, drinking wine cup after glass.
Lu Man had also heard of this. Jiang Zhan only wanted Lu Fangrong to take over his class, and when he fought the battle of "defending the palace", he took Lu Fangrong with him throughout the whole process, just to make the emperor and the prince leave a good impression on him.
When Jiang Zhanwei recommended Lu Fangrong to the emperor, the emperor still said, "This son forgets his righteousness for the sake of profit, makes mistakes in major matters, and does not handle family affairs well, so he should not be of great use." The Jianrui battalion is a sharp sword in the Great Chu army, and I don't feel at ease about handing it over to such a person. ”
Jiang Zhanwei has been in contact with Lu Fangrong for a long time and knows the real him better. It was his fault that he allowed Mrs. Lu to bully and abandon He, and he was indeed confused in family affairs. Later, he suffered so many losses, and he also deeply realized his mistakes. Moreover, he is really talented in military affairs, and many things when fighting are his ideas......
However, that bad impression has already been left on people, and it is not easy to change.
Lu Fangrong got drunk later, burst into tears again, and said, "One misstep becomes a thousand hatreds." I lost the best woman in the world, and I lost my future. I know that I can be a safe official now, or because I have a good son-in-law, otherwise I would have been squeezed into a place where birds don't......"
When Lu Man saw it, he quickly got up and led the old child out.
They all walked to the door, and the old horse had a moment of clarity, turned around and said, "You deserve it, there are too many good people in the family, and you still have to bully her......"
Before he finished his words, he was forced out by Lu Man.
Walking out of the door, Jiang Yue turned around and said in a loud voice, "Daddy, you still have to take us to take a big boat with lights." ”
The old horse made up for it again, "The stupid boy of the Lu family should go quickly, don't delay us on the big boat." ”
