The mirror garden on the edge of Desheng Bridge is close to the pond, compared with other mansion gardens on the shore of Shicha Sea, it is a little small and exquisite, but because of the invitation to the experts of the Jiangnan Water Town Garden, the living water can be seen everywhere from the front yard to the back house, which is more pleasing to the eye. For the Jiang family, although this place was originally a thing of Runingbo's Mansion, she had never been here when she was there, so she was a little less uncomfortable, and what was even more rare was that everything had been packed up before moving in, and all she had to do was arrange manpower.

However, living in this huge garden, she had to habitually think about living within her means. Yang Jinzhou was promoted to the commander of the Jinyi Guard because of his military exploits, and the emperor rewarded a lot of wealth, and the Luoma River was beheaded 800 in this victory, in addition to being promoted, he also rewarded this garden and a thousand acres of farmland. Coupled with the one or two thousand silver she had saved in the years of opening the embroidery village in Xuanfu, it was more than enough to live, but it was not so easy to maintain today's expenses and marriage.

So, for a few days, the Jiang family took Zhuang's mother around the garden, listed them one by one, and assigned the same affairs to the four-room family recommended by the Korean government of Yangning Houfu. But that morning, Mrs. Zheng brought many people uninvited.

When the Zheng family entered the door, the Jiang family was still the eldest daughter-in-law at that time, only one was a father-in-law and mother-in-law, and no one was welcome, but the other was able to speak and was deeply favored. Now in this photo, although Zheng can still comfort herself that she is Mrs. Runingbo, she is in the superb, more than a cut higher than Mrs. Jiang's, she can come all the way from outside the gate of the Mirror Garden, and see the scene of the deep small bridge and flowing water in this courtyard, but her heart is like a cat's claw scratching, how uncomfortable it is. So as soon as she sat down after seeing each other, she laughed dryly.

"Sister-in-law is really blessed, I want to look forward to the completion of the mirror garden when the old uncle was there, but I didn't see this day after all."

"What blessing...... In addition to enjoying the blessings of his son, what is more important is that God is graceful and discerning. ”

Jiang's words that were neither soft nor hard smashed back, and Zheng suddenly stiffened again, and then nodded unnaturally. After a few words of greeting, seeing that the Jiang family was always sitting indifferently, she had no choice but to say what she meant today: "Sister-in-law and Brother Quan now have this Imperial Mirror Garden, which is a great joy, you are not willing to have a banquet to celebrate, blindly low-key, this is originally what a humble courtier should be." But after all, this garden is big, and you didn't need many people before, so Mrs. Tai instructed me to send a few shrewd people from the house to help me. ”

Jiang Shi, who was holding the tea cup, looked up at Zheng's at this time, and saw two neat and jade-looking girls standing behind him, remembering that Zhuang's mother had just reported that there were several family members waiting in the front yard, the corners of her mouth showed a faint smile, and she immediately nodded and said: "There is indeed a shortage of people in the family, and Mrs. Tai is so troubled, I will let Zhuang's mother lead the errand when I turn around." There is only one thing, the first Yixing County Lord and Mrs. Yangning Marquis also recommended a few people to come over, and gave them their deeds, I don't know where these people sent by Mrs. Tai are? After all, in addition to the original people in the family, the new people also have personal documents. ”

"Since it is the person who recommended it, of course the deed is given to the sister-in-law."

Zheng, who had been prepared, made a gesture to the big girl behind her, and saw that she was holding a carved lacquered mahogany box and sending it to Jiang, she couldn't help but smile proudly - this trip was naturally to take advantage of the shortage of manpower here, and wedge a few nails first. The families of these houses are all dragged with many relatives, and their identity deeds were sent over, but the identity deeds of their relatives are still in their hands, so they don't worry about not listening to the call

Seeing that the Jiang family nodded, and ordered to call all the family members outside to the courtyard, she knew that the matter had been decided, and her heart suddenly relaxed a lot. When the new subordinates kowtowed, Zhuang's mother took the people down to settle down, and she found a reason to send the two girls she brought to look outside, and put on a heartfelt appearance.

"In addition to this one, I am actually here today for another important matter." She didn't care about Jiang's still cold and detached expression, and moved closer to the kang table, "Sister-in-law knows about the rumors outside these days?" That Mrs. Yangning Marquis took care of things in her early years, and she was lucky not to be affected by the former Dongchang Marquis, but after all, she was deeply involved, not to mention that this time she actually contacted the minister to ask for the prince, although the emperor has not yet attacked, but where will he not be angry in his heart, maybe it will happen in a blink of an eye Although the marriage of the whole brother was given by the emperor himself, but at this time and that time, she is a little girl who is not sensible, does not know the things that her grandmother did, only knows that she is blindly foolish, but in this way, in the future, she will marry the whole brother."

Seeing that the Jiang family seemed to be completely unimpressed, the Zheng family couldn't help but feel anxious, and simply moved out the concubine Qi in the palace to corroborate: "Sister-in-law, don't be inappropriate, Jun En, thunder and rain and dew, I still felt good before, maybe now the limelight has changed, and I immediately feel that people are hateful, and the whole brother has a good future, can you watch him being affected for no reason?" Why don't you send someone over and talk to her about it, so that she can understand the trade-offs. On the other hand, you, as a mother, also have to add two good-colored people to my brother, so as not to be held hostage when your daughter-in-law passes through the door in the future......"

When Zheng was talking energetically, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Old lady, the adult is back"

"It's still morning, why did you come back? Don't stay here, let's see what's going on."

Hearing that Yang Jinzhou was back, the coldness on Jiang's face suddenly disappeared without a trace, revealing incomparable concern. Seeing this, Zheng naturally could only stop the topic in a sneering manner, but he muttered a little in his heart. When Yang Jinzhou, who was dressed in an official robe, came to the door, she looked at the sturdy and sturdy appearance of the person, and compared with her two sons who had not been supported and Yang Ai, who had already married a wife and was still not in good health, she felt that her throat and eyes were in a panic.

After Jin Zhou came in, he saluted his mother first, then glanced at Zheng, and called the second aunt lightly. But seeing that Zheng was smiling and about to speak, he rushed ahead and said, "Second aunt, forgive me, I have some important matters to discuss with my mother." Later, the eldest princess Longyou also invited her mother to listen to the play, but she really couldn't keep you for dinner. ”

The eldest princess of Longyou made a post to listen to the play, but it was afternoon at that time, and it was far from now, and the Jiang family didn't even plan to go, but at this time, he really didn't expect his son to use this as a shield. Seeing that Zheng Shi was a little embarrassed and said something like not tight, she got up again to say goodbye, and she had to make a gesture and send people to the second gate with Yang Jin. Seeing that the group was in the car and left, she turned to look at her son, and said with a smile: "You will make excuses, I am impatient with those crowded occasions, what if she was also invited to go there?" ”

"The eldest princess Longyou has always had a temper, she is not like the eldest princess Anji, who had a family affair with the Dongchang Marquis Mansion before, and then the marriage fell through. Besides, mother, you should also move around, it's okay to take your time at home......"

Supporting his mother all the way in, Yang Jinzhou said this, but his face was not so natural. It wasn't until he returned to Yangchun Pavilion that he kicked the girl out again, then he sat down next to the Jiang family, muttered for a moment and said, "The reason why I came back today is because I was intercepted by Chen Sigongzi in Fuchengmen just now. It was Mrs. Yangning and his sister who asked him to come, and told him many things that I didn't know yet. Mother, here's how it ......."

Although the Zheng family had just added fuel and vinegar to say it, the Jiang family didn't believe it after all, but at this time, Yang Jinzhou said it in detail, and said that it was the news sent by Chen Yan, she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. After Yang Jinzhou finished speaking, she took a sip of water and calmed down, then raised her head and said, "Brother Na Yan'er told you this, but do you want to help?" ”

"Not for me to help." Yang Jinzhou shook his head, remembering Chen Yan's appearance as if he had suddenly grown up again, he lost his mind slightly, and then came back to his senses, "His sister asked him to say, I have to know these things sooner or later, rather than waiting for things to be caught off guard, it is better to have a psychological preparation as early as possible, between our two families, we should not hide it." She'll take care of it, and we'll just need to know that. ”

"She actually said that," the Jiang family was surprised at first, and then immediately shook his head, "The emperor has given marriage, and the two families have always been walking around as in-laws, how can they leave it alone when the matter comes?" That girl is really stubborn, she is a girl, for the sake of her grandmother, it is true, but how can this kind of thing be provoked by a person...... Brother Quan, what are your plans? ”

"I asked Chen Yan to give a message to her sister, I am a martial artist, and my connections in the capital are limited, so I can't help anything else, but I won't sit idly by. Mother, she is my future wife, that is her mother's home, but where there is a force, I can't sit idly by. ”

Although Jiang was worried in his heart, he still nodded and said, "What you said is true." So what are you going to do? ”

"I can't help with anything else, but I can pay attention to one or two things from Grandpa Xia."

"Grandpa Xia?" Jiang remembered the eunuch Xia who had taken him and Yang Jinzhou to see the Mirror Garden, but he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"The incident when the county lord of Lin'an got married, it shouldn't have spread yet, Mother Qian is dead, Mrs. Ji is an honest person, and she doesn't have a deep background, and she is in Changle Palace, so I think others may not attack her, even so, looking at this posture now, I always feel that Grandpa Xia has some difficulties......"

Jiang didn't understand the meaning at first, but when she found that Yang Jinzhou's face was a little dark, she suddenly remembered a possibility, and gasped for a while: "You mean, maybe someone ...... Maybe someone is going to ...... him."

"It's just maybe...... After all, Grandpa Xia has a house outside the palace."
