Chapter 14: Loyal Slaves

Breakfast was back to the usual one, with siu mai, xiao long bao, egg custard, and a bowl of goat's milk.

After eating breakfast in a hurry, I went to Ruyi Hall with the fragrance of water to greet the old lady.

As soon as I went out, I met Jiang Yirou, the third girl who lived next door.

Jiang Yirou walked a few steps and took Jiang Yixi's hand, "Second sister, I was about to go on an appointment with you." ”

The voice is soft and waxy, the little hands are slippery, and the smile is sweet.

Before marrying in her previous life, Jiang Yixi was not close to Jiang Yirou, and felt that she was like her father and mother, and belonged to the category of smiling tigers. Later, I learned that the three-room family was very good.

Jiang Yixi's mood was better. Only those who have experienced hardship are more likely to appreciate the beauty in ordinary affairs. In life, it is much more pleasant to experience good than bad.

The two went to Ruyi Hall hand in hand.

Jiang Yirou bit her ears with Jiang Yixi, "If your grandmother hasn't picked you up since the New Year, let my father remind your grandmother." ”

Jiang Yixi smiled and expressed his gratitude.

Mrs. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang, Jiang Yiyan, and Jiang Yishan were already in Ruyi Hall, and several boys invited Wan'an to study in the front yard.

Before, there was also a female gentleman in Jiangfu who taught several girls to read and play the piano. It wasn't until the end of last year that the youngest fifth girl also turned eleven years old, and the old lady felt that the girl should learn more from the female celebrity and the housekeeper, so she quit the female gentleman.

After solving that troublesome matter, and thinking that the second granddaughter might be able to bring a lot of benefits to the family in the future, the old lady now looked at Jiang Yi with a much kinder look than before.

"How's it going? If you lack anything, ask your aunt for it. ”

Jiang Yixi smiled, "Grandmother Xie, I'm from my province." ”

Laughing with the old lady for a while, several girls wanted to go to the garden to flutter butterflies and swing, but Jiang Yi regretted not going.

As soon as she returned to the garden to sit down, she heard a sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and then the voice of a girl.

"Second girl, second girl, Sister Hua'er came to tell me that I was going to be transferred to the second girl as a girl, is it true?"

As she spoke, she had already run into the house, her eyes wide and she looked at Jiang Yixi and the others. She couldn't believe that such a good thing could fall on her, for fear that others would make fun of her.

Jiang Yixi smiled, "It's true." If you don't want to, I'll go talk to the eldest lady again. ”

The girl knelt on the ground and said happily, "The slave is willing, the slave is willing." Being able to serve the second girl is a blessing for slaves and maids. ”

Mama Wu smiled, "Look at the mouth of the girl, how sweet it is." ”

Jiang Yixi let Han Ya get up, "On the third day of the first month of next month, I will go to Huzhuang to live for a long time, you go back and arrange your home, and come here on duty on the first day of the new year." ”

The girl asked again, "If I come to serve the girl, will I increase the moon silver?" I used to be a rough girl, and I only got 300 yuan a month. Because I did the work of two people, the chief manager added fifty dollars to me. ”

Mama Wu said with a smile, "Where is the silly girl, the money is considered a thief." ”

Jiang Yixi smiled, "In the future, you will be my second-class girl, and you will get six hundred wen a month." ”

The girl jumped a few times happily, laughed twice, and quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

Shui Xiang smiled, "The girl is crazy with joy." ”

Han Yatou knelt down and kowtowed excitedly, "Thank you, second girl, slave and maid have money to treat the eldest brother again." The slave's grandfather was an old man's personal soldier, and he broke an arm during the war. My father was the second master's personal soldier, and he died on the battlefield with the second master and did not come back. They are all loyal slaves, and the slaves and maids must also be the loyal slaves of the second girl, and protect the second girl with their lives. ”

Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment, "Your father is Uncle Jiang Tie?" ”

She knew that Jiang Chen's personal soldier was called Jiang Tie, and she had seen her twice when she was a child.

Han girl nodded, "Well, my father's name is Jiang Tie." ”

Mama Wu looked at the girl carefully and said, "Don't say it, she looks a little like Jiang Tie, I remember Jiang Tie said that his daughter's name is Ling'er......"

Han Yatou smiled, "My name is Jiang Ling'er." My father said that no matter how stupid I am in the eyes of others, I am also the most clever in my father's eyes. ”

Jiang Yixi personally got up and helped the girl up, and said, "In the future, you will be called Shui Ling, not only smart, but also Shui Ling." ”

There were little stars in the eyes of the girl, "I know, Shui Ling is handsome." ”

Jiang Yixi smiled, "Dress up well, our water spirit is a handsome girl." ”

She listened to the situation at the girl's house again.

When the news of Jiang Tie's death came back, Han Yatou's grandfather almost died of anger, and his brother broke his leg in a fit of rage. The imperial court issued a pension of fifteen taels of silver, and the Bofu gave ten taels of silver, and spent half a year on the medical treatment of his grandfather and brother. My brother was lame, and he didn't recover well, and he lost his errand to catch a car in the house. Fortunately, she entered the house to do things last year, and she made another entry......

Jiang Yi sighed secretly, the pillar of the family died, and he no longer cared about it after giving ten taels of silver, so he didn't treat the family members of the heroes so well, no wonder the Wuxiangbo Mansion was becoming more and more ruined. In his previous life, he was confused, and he didn't pay attention to many things.

She went to the bedroom to open the makeup box, which contained two silver ingots of five taels, some broken silver, and more than a dozen gold and silver jewelry. Her monthly money is mostly used to buy jewelry and silk, embroidery thread, or notebooks, and she doesn't have much savings.

This is almost all of Jiang Yi's family background. The fifty taels of silver that the old lady had verbally promised had not yet been obtained.

Jiang Yixi took out ten taels of silver. Tomorrow she has to go out on the street to sell some jewelry, and there are still many things to buy.

She handed the silver to Han Yatou, "My brother and I didn't know that Uncle Tie's family was so difficult, we ignored it." The money will be used to treat your grandfather and brother so that they may have a better life. If they have something, they will go to Jiang Xun, and Jiang Xun will help. ”

The girl cried with joy and kowtowed a few times to Jiang Yixi. Her brother's leg had not been in good shape, and it was in terrible pain......

At noon, Jiang Xun came to Zhuoyuan for dinner.

He whispered, "Sister, Brother Lianshan came to me again today." I said that my sister was going to live in Huzhuang in the southern suburbs, and Brother Lianshan said that Zhuangzi, where Meng Shizi lived for a long time, was also in Linfeng Town in the southern suburbs. If the sister has something to do in the Zhuangzi, you can send someone to find him...... He also asked us if we needed any help, and I said no. ”

As he spoke, he took out five silver tickets and gave them to Jiang Yixi, one hundred taels of silver each.

Jiang Yixi shook his head and said, "I said that I can't ask for other people's money anymore, how can I collect such a large amount of silver." ”

The first time I received it, it was Meng Cimo's thanks to the orphans of the life-saving benefactor, and I received it. Later, he gave a small sum of money, which was used as his pocket money for the child. But this time to send so much money......

Jiang Xun said, "I won't take it first, saying that I have grown up and can't just accept other people's money." Brother Lianshan forced it to me, saying that we have no father and mother, and they should take care of themselves. Let me accept it this time, and he will go back and make it clear to Meng Shizi that he will not send it again if he has nothing to do in the future. Sister, you take this silver to the Zhuangzi to spend, and the countryside is bitter. ”

Jiang Yixi thought about what she wanted to buy, she took out three, and returned the other two to Jiang Xun, "Hide it, don't let Yu Pozi see it again, otherwise it will be taken away by grandmother." ”
