Chapter 222: Grace
At the door of the backyard, Jiang Zhixia just took a breath and wanted to sit on the stool next to him to rest, but as a result, another lady with gorgeous makeup came over.
"Mrs. Chu." A woman in her thirties took a teenage lady to greet Jiang Zhixia.
Jiang Zhixia hurriedly returned the salute, but he didn't know which lady this was.
She looked at the Mama Wang who was sent to her by Mrs. Chengenhou, a more powerful person.
The grandmother saw her eyes and was about to speak.
I saw the back of the woman, but there was an acquaintance that Jiang Zhixia had seen before, and Mama Wei said with a smile: "This is our Grandma Li." ”
"Oh. Grandma Li. Jiang Zhixia suddenly understood. This is the young lady of the former waiter who sold herself to the wedding grange.
Thinking that at that time, I still had a good impression of this grandmother Li who could sell herself to marry her mother's family in danger.
Although from Jiang Zhixia's point of view, this approach is not very smart.
After all, the output of the Grange is year after year. Even if the harvest may be reduced due to bad weather, it is better than selling it for that bit of silver.
"Our wife's surname is Liu." Mama Wang heard Grandma Li call Jiang Zhixia Mrs. Chu, and hurriedly explained beside her.
When Grandma Li heard this, she looked at Mama Wei in embarrassment.
At the beginning, when buying the grange, Mama Wei said that this Jiang girl was married, and the other party was surnamed Chu. Is it possible, but also changed the family?
Mama Wei was also a little dazed.
At that time, what she heard in the mansion was obviously that this Jiang girl was going to marry a deputy general surnamed Chu.
Now, Miss Jiang's hair is coiled into a woman's head, so she must be married.
Their Li family is not a big family, and they still followed the post of the Ministry of Works' waiter's family.
After coming in, I found Jiang Zhixia's acquaintance, so I hurriedly came over to say hello. Unexpectedly, the wrong greeting?
Jiang Zhixia saw that they were embarrassed, and understood that their family should not have gotten the news yet.
So he hurriedly explained: "My husband's original surname was Chu. It is the lost child of the Chengenhou family. It took a few days to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors. ”
That Mama Wang also knew that she was wrong, this must be someone that Mrs. knew before, and she said it directly, but it is not easy to cause misunderstanding.
Therefore, she hurriedly apologized with a smiling face.
Those who don't know are not guilty, and everyone naturally laughs at it.
Because another guest came, Jiang Zhixia handed over Grandma Li to the next person to lead her to the flower hall.
She went on to greet other guests.
Then Grandma Li followed the grandmother of Chengenhou Mansion to the flower hall.
Seeing that there were no outsiders next to her, the young lady who was following Grandma Li finally asked: "Eldest sister, that Chu... Who is Mrs. Liu? ”
Grandma Li then told her in detail about her relationship with Jiang Zhixia because of the sale of the grange.
At the end, she couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect her life to be so good." When I saw her speaking for me that day, I was grateful, and thought of selling her a thousand taels of grain cheaper. Unexpectedly, she has now become the wife of the prince of the Chengenhou Mansion. It's really a time change, this time and that time. ”
The young lady beside her had lowered her eyes and her face was changeable.
Grandma Li sighed, but she didn't say anything.
I just thought that I could finally enter the Chengenhou Mansion today, and I don't know if I can see Mrs. Chengenhou and beg her to deliver a message to the queen's mother?
She didn't ask for anything else, she only hoped that the emperor would pardon her family's three dynasties from being able to participate in the imperial examination.
For a literati family, even if they save their lives, but they can't take the imperial examination, what hope does the family have?
On the second prince's side, what he saw was that it didn't work, so he could only hope for the queen's side.
Thinking of this, she sighed deeply again.
Is it bad for Daddy to be a good official? Why go to the queue early?
Jiang Zhixia naturally didn't know that Grandma Li was thinking about seeing Mrs. Chengenhou, and she was busy continuing to meet guests.
It wasn't until the luncheon was over, and everyone went to the hall and various flower halls to drink tea and eat, that she could relax a little more.
She took Ruolan and Xiaoman to walk slowly in the back garden to eat.
He was walking when he was suddenly stopped by a girl.
Ruolan's figure flashed, and she immediately blocked in front of Jiang Zhixia.
"Mrs. Liu, I am the younger sister of Grandma Li, and my surname is Tian." The girl first introduced herself.
Jiang Zhixia relaxed when she heard that it was Grandma Li's sister.
"Miss Tian is looking for me, is there something wrong?" She asked kindly.
"I heard from the eldest sister, did you buy her dowry grange?" Miss Tian hesitated for a moment, but still asked.
"Exactly." Jiang Zhixia didn't know Miss Tian's intentions, and was very puzzled.
"My eldest sister sold the grange to you for a thousand taels cheaper. This favor, should you pay it back? ”
Seeing that Jiang Zhixia admitted it, Miss Natian said it unceremoniously.
?????
Jiang Zhixia's head was full of question marks.
How can you buy a grange and still owe a favor? What's more, where did she take advantage of other people's 1,000 taels?
"Miss Tian is afraid that she is mistaken, right? I didn't buy a grange for a thousand taels. At the time, it was just normal bargaining. ”
Although confused, Jiang Zhixia still explained carefully.
"You're talking nonsense. When you become the wife of Chengen Hou Shizi, don't you admit it? My eldest sister said that it was sold to you for a thousand taels cheaper. ”
When Miss Natian saw that Jiang Zhixia didn't recognize it, she was so angry that she cried out loudly.
Jiang Zhixia was having a big head, when he heard an angry 'shut up' voice.
She looked up and saw Grandma Li hurrying over.
After Grandma Li came, she hurriedly apologized to Jiang Zhixia: "Mrs. Liu, I'm sorry. My little sister has been spoiled at home since she was a child. I offended Mrs. Liu by being open-mouthed, please forgive Mrs. Liu. ”
Grandma Li was sweating on her forehead because of her eagerness and cold weather.
She was talking to the other ladies, and when she turned her head, she found that her little sister was gone. She was afraid that her younger sister would get into trouble, so she hurried to find it.
Under the guidance of the people of the Chengenhou Mansion, I found this place.
Sure enough, it was still a disaster.
"Eldest sister, I'm not talking nonsense. You gave her a thousand taels cheaper, and she is now the wife of the prince, let her go and intercede with us. ”
Miss Tian shouted anxiously beside her.
You can't take the imperial examination, but it's a big deal. After the Three Dynasties, even if the imperial examination is passed, can there still be a place for her Tian family in the court?
"Shut up." The sweat on Grandma Li's forehead was even worse, she looked at Jiang Zhixia's indifferent expression, was ruthless, and slapped Miss Tian on the cheek.
Suddenly, Miss Tian was stunned.
"I want to give Mrs. Liu a bargain. But Mrs. Liu confiscated it. We are just buying and selling. No human affection. Don't talk nonsense. ”
Grandma Li looked at the young sister who was crying, but she could only say ruthlessly.
Jiang Zhixia looked at this farce and didn't know what to say. I'm just glad that I was quite sober at the time and didn't take advantage of that.
Otherwise, she would really sing along with this drama of begging for retribution.
Grandma Li took the crying Miss Tian and left after apologizing to Jiang Zhixia in a hurry.
Jiang Zhixia shook her head, she was not interested in continuing to eat, and she also led people to turn around and walk towards the flower hall.
