Chapter 39: The Winter Snow Meeting

After autumn, we ushered in a snowy winter. On the snow-capped earth, on the eaves of the pavilions, and on the branches of the trees in the courtyard, ice bars were hung all over the trees. Jiang Wanmu and Ji Yan stood in the courtyard full of snow, Ji Yan looked at the big snowdrifts piled up on both sides that were higher than people, and said to Jiang Wanmu, who was holding the board and shoveling the snow on the middle road and throwing it on both sides: "Miss, the two of us slowly shovel the snow in the yard out of the yard, this snow pile is too high, if it is pressed down, it will cover the two of us." ”

Jiang Wanmu looked at the snow in the yard, and saw that she didn't listen to her own answer, so she insisted on opening the yard door and shoveling the snow out. Jiang Wanmu smiled when she heard this, this little woman has been much more presumptuous in front of herself since she found out her own thoughts.

"Yo, who is it shown to such a big snow? Even my brother went to the Winter Snow Festival today, but he didn't come to look at people and pretend to be pitiful. Besides, even my brother came, thinking about who was the person who was going to talk to him, that person should have a number in his heart? Don't be stupid, your heart is even more stupid. A string of words was stunned, Jiang Wanmu and Ji Yan turned around, and saw Jiang Wanxian in a brocade robe, holding a small stove with both hands, and two little girls behind her.

Jiang Wanxian had a disdainful smile on her lips, how could this woman in front of her, who was obviously the dust on the soles of the Jiang family's feet, attract the fourth young master Lian who was in her prime, to come over and take a look at her every once in a while. Jiang Wanxian walked over and circled around Jiang Wanmu twice, and when she saw her lower her head again and began to shovel snow with a wooden plank, she laughed and said, "If you are really stupid, that is also a good thing." Today's Winter Snow Club, even my brother invited my eldest sister to go with me, which was promised by my mother. On weekdays, when he comes, I see that his friendship with his eldest sister is different from yours.

The second brother's family affairs will be booked, and the eldest sister's family affairs will be booked during the Chinese New Year this year. Fool, I'm kind enough to remind you a little bit about it, even my brother treats you a little more amiable when you're a poor child. Your verbal affair was just set by his mother-in-law, and I heard that his father has always been dissatisfied. My sister did a good job, and she came over to talk to you about this great thing on a snowy day. Hahaha, can a fool have a good family? Jiang Wanxian smiled and walked away with the people around her, leaving behind Jiang Wanmu and Ji Yan who were full of thoughts in the snow.

Ji Yan looked at Jiang Wanmu worriedly, and after seeing Jiang Wanxian walking away, he quietly comforted and said, "Miss, even the young master treats you well." Lian Zimo came to see Jiang Wanmu every ten years, and every time he came, he would meet Jiang Wanyi by chance, and then everyone would talk together. Jiang Wanmu has seen how he and Jiang Wanyi get along, on the surface, the two of them are well-behaved, but they will exchange small glances from time to time, and when it comes to interesting places, the two of them have a deep smile in their eyes.

Jiang Wanmu is the background that they must exist when they get along, but Jiang Wanxian is the background that is often sent automatically, and this background is very assertive, and often attracts the attention of the two protagonists in another context. Jiang Wanmu may have shallow grievances, but as long as she thinks of the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone brought by Lian Zimo, she is more and more thoughtful every time, and she doesn't mind much about the joy of the young master of the Lian family and her eldest sister in her eyes.

After Lian Zimo passed the second attempt, his handsome appearance, his youth, and the limelight were all over the capital. Jiang Wanmu secretly went out once a while ago, and by chance in the bookstore, he heard a scholar's voice talking about him, and asked each other about his family affairs with a smile, and someone smiled and said, "Most of the people who took the second test this time, most of the people ranked in front of Brother Lian are older than him, and it is rare that one is younger than him, but that appearance makes it unbearable." Brother Lian is a person like him, he is funny and humorous, and in the future, he will have a good wife and a beautiful concubine, and it is normal for him to add fragrance to his red sleeves. ’

The other smiled and said, "I heard that he has a deep affection for the eldest lady of the Jiang family. ''Shh, you can't talk nonsense, the most important reputation of the family. Even my brother and Miss Jiang have never heard of engagement, fair lady, gentleman, if the two can achieve good things, we will talk about it later, if the two are just face-to-face friendship, we talk too much, but not the gentleman's doing. "Hehe, Brother Ming, what you said, we understand, is worried that we will inadvertently anger the Lian family by talking like this." ’

Jiang Wanmu listened to the scholars talk about it at the beginning, but she didn't think that this brother Lian had anything to do with herself, and it wasn't until she heard Miss Jiang that she knew the truth about herself. It turns out that there are some things that can't be hidden from the eyes of those who are close to you, and they can't be hidden from the eyes of people in the world. At the same time, Jiang Wanmu knew more about her and Lian Zimo's oral relationship, which was probably a secret.

Jiang Wanmu therefore paid attention to the movements of the Jiang family, and gradually knew that the wind direction had changed. Lian Zimo came to look at Jiang Wanmu, and when he looked down at her, perhaps he thought more about his unsatisfactory situation at home, so that he could treat her so closely. Last time, Lian Zimo had just stepped into Jiang Wanmu's courtyard door, Jiang Wanyi followed over, and he didn't even bring out the words that he usually used to come to see his sister. Instead, he smiled and said to Lian Zimo: "Brother Zimo, my brother found the ancient book you wanted, and I was about to find someone to inform you." ”

Lian Zimo smiled excitedly and followed out, without turning his head again. Jiang Wanmu looked at Ji Yan, who was worried, she thought about it and asked softly: "Ji Yan, do you know anyone who has a good relationship with Aunt Yu's side for Wen Chun?" And not to attract people's attention? Ji Yan looked left and right, and motioned for Jiang Wanmu to walk into the courtyard. After the two entered the courtyard, she said in a low voice: "Miss, the women in the big kitchen, all of them have something to say to Sister Wenchun." Sister Wenchun knows how to cook and is willing to teach them how to cook. ”

After Jiang Wanmu heard this, she was silent for a long time, Ji Yan pulled her worriedly, and said in a small voice: "Miss, the second miss is jealous of you, what you said just now was nonsense." How could Madame allow the eldest lady to accompany Young Master Lian out? You and Young Master Lian have a marriage contract. Jiang Wanmu remembered that Lian Zimo had said that the Winter Snow Club generally invited men. If Jiang Wanyi goes with her, nine times out of ten, Lian Zimo will personally invite him to accompany him.

Jiang Wanxian may talk nonsense, but in this matter, if she can hurt Jiang Wanmu and win her face, what she said must be the truth. In private, the Jiang family and the Lian family must have other agreements. My own mother and Aunt Yu have made thousands of calculations, but I am afraid that they will fall short in the end. Jiang Wanmu thought about the words overheard in the bookstore, the friendship between Jiang Wanyi and Lian Zimo floated on the water, the elders of the two families, everyone must know it, but everyone was waiting for good news.

Jiang Wanmu thought of the sick Aunt Yu, who had not seen her for a long time. She said to Ji Yan: "Ji Yan, you tell your mother what the third lady said just now." It's best to talk about it when you accompany your mother back to the big kitchen. Ji Yan looked at her in surprise and said, "Miss, if Sister Wenchun tells Aunt Yu about this, something will happen then." Jiang Wanmu looked at her with a wry smile: "Wenchun may not necessarily talk to Aunt Yu." Go and tell me, I know what I know. Ji Yan nodded puzzled and said, "I listen to Miss." ”
