Chapter 57: Suspicious Money
During the day of the Lantern Festival, Qiu Yulan took He's mother and daughter into the palace.
As usual, we will go to the Temple of Thailand first.
It's just that Qiu Yulan, who has always been unimpeded here, was blocked: "Although the Queen Mother is much better than a few days ago, her mood is still not so smooth!" It's nothing for the nineteenth young lady to go in alone, and when the fourth young lady and the two young ladies Sun arrived, I am afraid that it will remind Niangniang of the past, but it is not good for Niangniang's phoenix body. So ......"
Lady Lin said so, Qiu Yulan had no choice but to take He's mother and daughter to worship outside the Taishi Palace, and asked her to convey her condolences and ask for her guilt, and she retired.
It didn't go well to Beique Hall again - although Xin Fubing was grounded, he was in good health, and he didn't need to worry about being stimulated after seeing He's mother and daughter. The question is...... This time I caught up with the emperor again.
And it is also temporarily impossible to leave, because: "His Royal Highness the Great Prince has had a cough since yesterday, His Majesty and the Queen Mother are very worried, and the imperial doctor has been passed in the middle of the night, and they have been guarding every inch until now." His Majesty also said that tonight's Lantern Festival banquet may not be going - the maid really doesn't dare to disturb it! ”
Helpless, the four of them could only go home.
He's mother and daughter were naturally quite worried: "The queen mother and the queen mother shouldn't be annoyed by the courtiers and courtiers, right?" ”
"The fourth sister-in-law and the two nieces don't worry, whether it is Lady Lin or the people of Beique Palace, they are telling the truth, it is really a misfortune today, and it is definitely not intentional." Qiu Yulan felt that the queen mother and the queen would not be so careful, and comforted, "Anyway, it will be a long time coming, and we will go again in two days when it is convenient for the two mothers." ”
After returning to the Guogong Mansion, Qiu Yulan sent them back to the courtyard - only when they arrived at the door, they happened to meet the Jin family.
I don't know if I have been pressed by Penglai Yue, watching the concubine who grew up and being disgusted by her father, she looked very bad, after seeing each other, Qiu Yulan was about to say goodbye, but she shouted: "Nineteen brothers and sisters, please stay!" ”
"What do you have to tell the fifth sister-in-law?" Qiu Yulan asked, the two of them have no friendship and contact, I don't know what the Kim family is doing when she calls her?
"I don't know if the nineteenth brother and sister have ever given a full moon rule?" Kim seemed hesitant, but asked anyway.
Qiu Yulan felt inexplicable: "No, the monthly case has always been sent by the fourteenth sister-in-law, how can I overstep my bounds?" ”
He was also surprised: "Fifth brother and sister, isn't Man'er's monthly money wrong?" ”
"Maybe someone outside gave it to him?" Jin frowned and said vaguely, "I just think that his expenses have been a lot bigger recently, and it is not enough according to his monthly schedule, and I don't know where it came from...... Just ask him, and he won't say! ”
"Many of the clan studies are not the children of our Jiang family, maybe they gave it, right?" When He said this, he actually didn't believe it, the Jiang family is now not the only one in the clan school, and when it comes to Jiang Yayun's knees, except for Jiang Jingxu, they are all inside, who will let those people not please and come to please the second and fifth rooms - these two rooms don't even have an official body now, although they live in the Guogong Mansion, they can't easily see the sick Qin Guogong, and they can't talk about power at all, but they just have the identity of the Jiang family's children!
Once Qin Guogong is not good, they don't say that they will be swept out of the house immediately, but they also know that it is impossible to live in the Guogong Mansion all the time.
This is also the reason why the He family attaches great importance to the matter of Chinese New Year's Eve - the man of Kuxian and the Marquis of Jibei have both passed away, and the Duke of Qin looks similar. After the older generation did not have it, several members of the next generation of the Jiang family had no relationship with the second and fifth rooms. Relying only on the relationship of blood, don't think about what kind of frame you put up with the compensation psychology of Qin Guogong and Jibei Hou like when Kui County Man was still there!
Jin also thought the same way, but in front of Qiu Yulan, she pursed her lips and said, "It should be." ”
Qiu Yulan felt that this matter had nothing to do with him, so he didn't say anything, and when he saw that they didn't say anything else, he left and left.
After she left, He asked Jiang Huiyan and Jiang Huili to go back to the room, invited Jin into the house and sat down, and then asked softly: "If it's just that the expenses exceed the monthly rule, I don't think you will be so interested that you came to ask me and stopped the nineteen brothers and sisters to ask...... What's going on? ”
"Man'er has used up more than 800 gold in the past two or three days, where do you say he got the money?" Kim took a deep breath and said.
He Shi was taken aback: "How can there be so many?!" ”
If Jiang Yazhao and Jiang Ya used up more than 800 gold later, even if it was used in one day, they would not feel strange, because they had already used it. But Jiang Jingman - not to say that he has never squandered like this before, let's just say where did he get the money?
As a concubine, and there was a brother-in-law in front of him before, when Jiang Jingman was in Kui County, he couldn't even get all the monthly bills, even if he didn't spend a penny, it was a question of whether he could save ten gold a year!
Even after arriving in Beijing, as soon as Jin's own son died, he had no grandson, and he might not be able to count on him to support his old age in the future, and he would not dare to deduct his monthly rules again; Second, he is in charge of water and money, and he hates spending money and not being favored, and he doesn't give her such a chance. But even so, it is impossible for him to save more than 800 gold in these months!
He couldn't help but ask: "Could it be a false report?" ”
"The little guy next to him said it personally, and I also took a few shops to inquire, and the price told the guy is not very different." Jin's face was ugly, "I can still think that my husband gave it to him in private, after all, you also know that my husband has always been generous, and he used to be ...... when he was here" Speaking of this, his heart hurt, and he was silent for a moment before continuing, "I have no scruples about spending, and my husband doesn't care." ”
"But now ......"
Since Peng Laiyue was pushed by Jiang Jingman and caused a miscarriage, Jiang Yawan has become disgusted with this concubine. If it weren't for Jiang Yayun's repeated mediation, Jiang Yawan wouldn't even want to keep him in the capital at all.
In this case, how could Jiang Yawan give him money in private?
So the Jin family couldn't figure out where Jiang Jingman got the money from in such a way of spending: "Let's come to Beijing these days, and the price of goods is about a little bit known." Eight hundred gold is not a small number even in the capital, if it is for the sake of doing things, how can Man'er be able to do things at this price? In fact, when I asked the nineteen siblings, I also knew that it was impossible. Even if the nineteenth brother and sister give him some money in private, most of them will let him buy pen and ink and snacks, how much can he have? Fourth sister-in-law, you say, will his money be ......?"
With a look of worry and obvious fear, he actually looked in the direction of the big house!
He's face suddenly became ugly, and after a long while, he muttered, "But...... Doesn't make sense? Last time it was just a coincidence, and no one could have imagined it...... Now that we've all come to Beijing, what else can we say? ”
Suddenly, he looked at Kim, "You...... What about Penglai Yue's miscarriage? ”
"It's not me!" Jin hurriedly said, "That's cheap. Person. It's like what, where can I harm her? It's good not to be hurt by her! ”
“…… Or do you observe for two more days and see what he really wants to do? He pondered for a while before he said, "Later, I will also tell Xia Du'er to pay attention to him!" ”
…… When they were worried, Qiu Yulan was busy arranging the apprenticeship banquet three days later: "Have the fresh fruits been prepared?" If it's not enough, hurry up and discuss with the fourteenth sister-in-law and ask her to help get some! ”
"The pair of blue and white beauties over there in the main hall are too plain, and it is good to change the pair of coral red bottles with golden peach and plums!"
"Put a pot of plum blossom bonsai in the middle, choose red plums, it looks lively!"
"Change the tea set to the set with bean green glaze!"
"Is the tea ready?"
I had to appease the two little ancestors: "An'er, you see that your aunt doesn't have anything interesting here, and how fun and interesting the snowman your nineteenth uncle took you to build two days ago is so interesting!" Now let Mulian and Mulan take you to pile another one, okay? ”
"Lang'er, don't you want to play with your brother? You see that your fourteenth brother has gone to build a snowman, what are you still doing for your mother? Obedient - boys are going to play with boys, let go of your mother's skirt and play with your fourteenth brother! ”
Even coaxed and deceived the two boys to send them out, and there was a problem on the daughter's side again - Zhou's mother hurriedly ran over and said: "Miss Twenty-three Sun is spitting up again!" ”
"How so!?" Qiu Yulan suddenly couldn't calm down, threw the matter into Mu Hibiscus's hand, and hurriedly ran towards her daughter's house.
"Didn't I tell you that you don't have to let her lie down when feeding, you have to let her recline?!" Although it is said that it is a common thing for babies in the first three months to spit up milk, it is not a disease, but looking at the painful appearance of her own flesh and blood, Qiu Yulan still can't help but get angry, "And let her burp after feeding - did you listen to it?!" ”
The two nurses explained tremblingly: "The maids have always done this, but Miss Sun has not been able to burp today, and after a while of filming, she will ...... I threw up! ”
"Go get a doctor!" Qiu Yulan's face was gloomy, and while hugging her daughter, she commanded, "Look at what the hell is going on!?" ”
Jiang Huiying's request for a doctor directly scared Jiang Yashuang, who was discussing with Jiang Tianqi in the third room, back: "What's wrong with Ying'er?" Why do you need to call a doctor? ”
"I'm spitting up milk again today, and I'm not worried, so I'll please." Since the doctor's packing ticket is not a big deal, Qiu Yulan has breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's okay!" ”
Jiang Yashuang was also relieved when she heard this, and wiped her cold sweat: "It's okay!" It's okay! ”
After saying it twice, I asked, "How can a good person spit up milk?" Doesn't it mean that you should pay attention to your posture when breastfeeding, and you won't vomit if you pat it on your shoulder after feeding? ”
"The doctor said that it may not be effective every time, but the child is young." Qiu Yulan sighed.
The two said a few words about their daughter's situation, and a burst of children's screams sounded in the corridor, followed by Jiang Jingkun and Jiang Jinglang, rushed in in a hurry, hugged Jiang Yashuang's legs left and right: "Uncle and uncle, let's go build a house!" Snowmen aren't fun! ”
"Don't play in the snow, my father took us to ride horses, horses!"
The corners of Jiang Yashuang's mouth twitched, and she bent down and touched the faces of the two children: "Speak lightly, your sister is not very comfortable!" ”
"Then take my sister to the snow-building house! My sister must like it very much, and it will be good if she likes it! ”
"Horseback riding! Horseback riding is fun, and my sister can only ride a horse! ”
…… Ignoring her husband's gaze for help, Qiu Yulan stepped back, stepped back, stepped back again, quietly picked up her daughter on the couch, wrapped her fur in her coat, and slipped through the back door: "I take my daughter, you take my nephew and son...... Well, that's fair! ”
