Chapter 34: Purse
After Jiang Yixi married into the Meng family, Shui Lu said several secrets of the big house in order to stammer, including this matter. Only then did she know that it was a private meeting between Jiang Jin and a girl from Grandma Jiang, and Grandma Jiang was afraid to jump into the well after Grandma Jiang found out. In order not to affect Jiang Jin's reputation, Mrs. Jiang came up with the bad idea of taking Jiang Xun into the top cylinder......
Thinking of those past events, Jiang Yi was so angry that his chest hurt.
That's how orphans are bullied!
Mrs. Jiang is bad, Jiang Jin and his wife help to abuse, but the old lady and Uncle Jiang know the truth but accompany them to act...... Maybe Sanfang also knows the truth, but it's hard to say it, so he chooses to stand by and watch.
I was even more confused, when Jiang Xun was most isolated and helpless, I didn't help him and trust him. Who is Jiang Xun, his own brother, just thirteen years old, he should be protecting him, but he has suffered so many grievances.
Now that Qin's mother is serving Jiang Xun, she may not let him go to the garden to burn paper at night, but Jiang Yi is still not at ease. While not letting Jiang Xun be on the side, he did another thing.
She held back her tears, suppressed uncomfortably, and took a few deep breaths.
"What's wrong with the girl?" Mama Wu asked.
Jiang Yixi shook his head, "I'm fine, it's just a little hot." ”
The curtains on both sides of the carriage have been fully opened, and it is still unbearably hot.
The big pu fan in Mama Wu's hand fanned a little faster. She wondered why the girl had become cold to the old lady, so why she ran back to the capital to celebrate her birthday despite the heat.
It was three minutes after they arrived at Jiangfu, and all the guests had left.
Uncle Jiang and Master Jiang San both took leave and laughed with the old lady in the Ruyi Hall.
Jiang Yixi went in and kowtowed to the old lady three times, and said, "I wish my grandmother a blessing like the East China Sea and a longevity than Nanshan." ”
The old lady smiled and asked, "I heard San'er say, that pot of orchids was given to you by Meng Laoguogong?" ”
Jiang Yixi smiled, "Yes." Lao Guogong cherished me and my younger brother for not having a father, and occasionally gave Huzhuang some flowers and plants. ”
Mrs. Jiang asked with a smile, "I heard that Meng Shizi is also recuperating in Mengjiazhuang, so it's a pity that the girl is very familiar with him." ”
That's not a good thing to say.
Jiang Yixi was already angry with the eldest lady, and his words were not polite. sneered, "Look at what the eldest aunt said, in addition to going to Zhaoming Nunnery to make incense, I am copying scriptures and reading books in Zhuangzi, even if I want to meet irrelevant people, I don't have the time and opportunity." ”
The old lady was also not satisfied with the words of the eldest daughter-in-law. No matter how sorry the girl is, she is also a girl from the Jiang family, and her reputation is not good, which affects all the girls of the Jiang family. What's more, she also hopes that Jiang Yixi can really maintain a good relationship with Meng Laoguogong, which will be of great benefit to the future of her two sons.
She glared at the eldest lady, wanting to scold but feeling that she had to save face for her eldest son and grandson, and she couldn't scold her in public.
had to say, "The girl is sensible and reasonable, she knows what she can and can't do, and how can she be familiar with a foreign man." Meng Laoguo is an elder, and he has helped the eldest and third sons a lot, and it is only right that he occasionally goes to fulfill his filial piety. ”
Mrs. Jiang blushed and said with a busy smile, "My daughter-in-law also cares about the girl." If you care, you are confused, and you are in a hurry. ”
Jiang Yixi didn't pay attention to the eldest lady, and smiled with the old lady, "The old man loves sweetness, and sometimes he makes dim sum in the Zhuangzi, so he will send someone to give some to his old man, he likes it very much." When my younger brother came to Zhuangzi, he would let us go to Mengjiazhuang to play and guide my younger brother to practice martial arts. ”
Jiang Xun also smiled, "Not only did he guide me to practice martial arts, but he also taught me military strategies, which benefited me a lot." ”
The third master said, "Xun'er must cherish this opportunity. How many generals in the army wanted to ask their husbands how to fight, but they didn't have a chance. Of course, that includes me. After speaking, he stroked his beard and laughed twice.
Jiang Xun said solemnly, "Yes, my nephew remembers the teachings of the third uncle. ”
Jiang Yi took a look at the little boy, who was much calmer than before.
The old lady nodded happily, and looked at Jiang Xun's gaze softened a little.
The crowd laughed for a while, and then went to the wing room to eat. The old lady made an unprecedented spoon of Longjing bamboo soup for Jiang Yi to drink, and this treatment was the first time that the second room had it.
After the meal, they went back to each hospital, and Jiang Yixi and Jiang Yirou walked back hand in hand. They whispered in their ears, and from time to time there were a few chuckles.
In Zhuangzi's days, Jiang Yixi asked Jiang Xun to bring Jiang Yirou things a few times, including two Ruyi fans and a jasmine core bamboo pillow. These three things were all given by Li Zhenbao and made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Good things are secondary, and the key gift-giver is the lord of Jumbo County.
Looking at the attitude of the third master and the third lady towards their sister and brother, you know that they have received this love, and they are more willing to have a good relationship with Jiang Yixi.
Jiang Xun followed behind them, and he had something to tell his sister.
When she arrived at the gate of the burning courtyard, Jiang Yirou still wanted to follow up and play, but when she saw Jiang Xun coming, she knew that their sister and brother wanted to whisper, so she had to go back to her yard.
Jiang Xun talked about the affairs in the house, and said, "Sister, tomorrow is my mother's thirty-second birthday, and when it gets late, let's go and burn paper for my mother in the garden." I also wrote a letter to my mother and burned it to her together. ”
Hu can't wait for the old lady to see her, and she has to burn paper secretly.
Jiang Yixi asked, "Mother Qin agrees that you will go to the back garden to burn paper at night?" ”
Jiang Xun shook his head and said, "Mother Qin is unwilling, saying that I am a half-grown post-born child, and it is not good to go to the back garden in the evening, so let me burn it in my yard." But I don't want to, the back garden is empty and there are few people, and the paper money is more likely to be received by my mother. It just so happened that my sister came back, so we went together. ”
Jiang Yixi was very satisfied with Qin's mother's thoughtfulness. said, "I went to Zhaoming Nunnery two days ago to burn incense for my mother, and I also copied the scriptures and burned them to her. ”
Jiang Xun was very stubborn, "Sister burning is my sister's filial piety, and I want to do my filial piety." ”
Jiang Yixi pulled him up, "Let's go now, why wait for the night." ”
"Grandmother would be upset to find out."
"It's okay if she's unhappy, there's no reason for us to do our filial piety to our mother, and we have to look at other people's faces."
Jiang Xun asked Shui Ling to go to the outer courtyard to find Qin's mother to get paper money, and she and Jiang Yixi walked towards the garden.
At this time, the sky is not yet dark, the sunset in the west has turned dark red, and the orange light is open between the sky and the earth, and the back garden in the twilight is more beautiful and peaceful.
There was a large banyan tree by the side of the garden, the crown of which was like a huge umbrella, blocking the twilight, and the tree was dark underneath.
This is the place where Jiang Jin and that girl have a tryst.
Jiang Yixi pulled Jiang Xun to walk under the road, and threw a purse in the grass at the root of the tree with his hanging hand.
Jiang Xun didn't notice it, and Shui Xiang who was following them saw it. She didn't know why the girl had to throw a purse here, but she knew that the girl did it on purpose, so she pretended not to see it.
Walking through the garden, past a bamboo forest, you will reach the backyard wall.
When I met the mother-in-law who was on patrol, Shui Xiang said that the girl and the second master were here to burn paper for the second lady.
The mother-in-law didn't dare to say that it was not allowed to burn, but only told the candle to be extinguished before leaving.
Shui Xiang smiled, "Don't worry, we know." ”
