Chapter 7: The Jiang Family

After breakfast the next day, Jiang Fuyue sat under the porch reading a book, and was waiting for tea on the side, but Gu Yu disappeared.

Until Jiang Fuyue felt bored, she put the book in her hand aside, rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Why is it so quiet this morning, where did Gu Yu go?" ”

Shocked and forced a smile: "I heard that Mother Liu took Li Juren to the warehouse, Gu Yu rushed to see the excitement!" ”

"This girl is really chasing the excitement." Jiang Fuyue smiled.

"Isn't it," said the stunned smile, "Madame has been sitting for a long time, and the slave maid will accompany Madame for a walk in the courtyard." ”

Jiang Fuyue nodded, and just after getting up and walking a few steps, Gu Yu came back at a trot, not forgetting to ask someone to close the door.

"So happy, what did you hear?" Jiang Fuyue looked at her with a smile.

Gu Yu walked to Jiang Fuyue's side with a smile, and there was a joy in his tone that couldn't be hidden: "Madam, don't you know, that Li Juren's eyes are poisonous, and he picked seven or eight things from the treasury at once, and they are all treasures, which add up to be more valuable than your dowry, Madam!" ”

The stunned couldn't help laughing: "The old lady must be unhappy over there." ”

The smile on Gu Yu's face became a little brighter, and his mouth was almost grinning to the root of his ears: "Hmph, the more unhappy Songshouyuan is, the happier I am in my heart!" Whoever told them to beat the idea of the lady's dowry, this is called stealing chickens and rice! Deserve! ”

The Hou Mansion is not without good things, but the old lady has to take it from Jiang Fuyue's dowry, and now this result is really happy!

Jiang Fuyue couldn't help laughing.

Although Gu Yu doesn't have a door, he doesn't hate it at all.

The three masters and servants were about to go to the study to paint with a smile, and the maid guarding the door suddenly came to report, saying that Songshou Yuan had sent someone over, saying that the old lady invited Jiang Fuyue to come over and discuss the matter of the apprenticeship banquet in five days.

Shocked and Gu Yu looked at each other: "This old lady is really, she just tore her face yesterday, how can she pretend that nothing happened today, and come to Mrs. again?" ”

I really don't know what this cheeky skin is made of!

Jiang Fuyue is very bland.

The apprenticeship banquet is a major event, and it is only when she, the head of the Hou Mansion, comes forward, that it is decent, so it is reasonable for the old lady to come to her.

However, the apprenticeship banquet is very troublesome.

Worship the patriarch, worship the teacher, pay homage to the master and the six rites, and then the master will speak, and at the end of the family banquet, you may not be able to take a breath from morning to night.

In her previous life, she was looking for Mr., and she personally presided over the apprenticeship banquet, but in this life, Mr. was not invited by her, and she didn't want to get involved in the trouble of this apprenticeship banquet at all.

"Sting."

"The slave is here."

"You go and tell that person, I'm not feeling well these days, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold such a big banquet," Jiang Fuyue said, "Besides, those children have not been raised by me since they were young, if you want to be decent, the old lady is the chief of the house, and the old lady will come forward in person, which is the greatest decency." ”

When she entered the house, the youngest of the children was already three and a half years old, and An Yuanhou told her in person that she would not be allowed to interfere in the children's affairs.

In her previous life, she really wanted to give those children a better future, but she only raised a group of white-eyed wolves, and now, she doesn't want to care about it at all.

Whether the Hou Mansion is decent or not, what does it have to do with her.

"Yes."

Stunned turned around to pass the word, while Jiang Fuyue and Gu Yu went straight to the study.

Gu Yu asked the question in his heart while laying out paper and grinding ink: "Madam, in this capital, many people have the elders of the family who come forward in person when they have an apprenticeship banquet, it is impossible for the old lady not to know, since she wants to be decent, why do you want to let you go, Madame?" ”

"After all, the old lady doesn't look down on Li Juren," Jiang Fuyue moved the orchid on the windowsill to make the orchid look better on the paper, "If I invite a great Confucian to come back, do you think the old lady will ask me to come forward?" ”

Gu Yu pouted: "This old lady's mind is really contradictory, she looks down on others, but she wants to spend a lot of money to invite people back to make a living, what is this!" ”

"Invite Li Juren back because the Hou Mansion can't invite a more knowledgeable gentleman, it's just a helpless move," Jiang Fuyue dipped her pen in ink, traced the shadow of the orchid on the paper, and formed it with one stroke, "Tell me to go down, and no one will see anyone who has been sick in the past few days." ”

"Yes......" Gu Yu nodded, and seeing that there was no place in the study that he could help, he turned around and went out to pass the word.

After the people of Songshou Yuan went back, the old lady made a big fire and smashed a bunch of things, and after Gu Yu heard about it, he held his stomach and laughed for a long time.

As soon as the gate of Shaoguang Courtyard was closed, the three masters and servants finally lived a few quiet days.

Eating and sleeping every day, sleeping and eating, and Gu Yu and Shocking were amused, Jiang Fuyue only felt that since her mother passed away, she had not lived such a worry-free day for a long time.

However, the good times always don't last long, just after the apprenticeship banquet, the Jiang family sent a message over, asking Jiang Fuyue to go back immediately.

"A letter from the Jiang family?" Jiang Fuyue was a little surprised.

After she got married, the Jiang family seemed to have forgotten her, only she took the initiative to go back, and the Jiang family never took the initiative to contact her.

"Yes," he nodded in surprise, "It's Mrs. Jiang's personal mother who came to pass it personally, and no one has left yet!" ”

It seems that he is going back with Jiang Fuyue.

"Ah, yes!" Gu Yu suddenly clapped his hands, "A few days ago, the old lady sent two letters out, and now it seems that they were sent to the Jiang family!" ”

"Then pack up and go back."

"Yes."

——

The stun quickly prepared the carriage, and the three masters and servants got into the carriage with Mrs. Jiang's personal mother and headed for the Jiang family's mansion.

The lord of the Jiang family was only a six-rank official, and the location of the mansion was much more remote than that of the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion, and the carriage walked for half an hour before stopping.

After getting out of the carriage, Jiang Fuyue didn't have time to take a closer look at this mother's mansion that had been absent for most of her life, so she was urged by Qin's mother to go to the main hall.

In the main hall, Jiang Baisheng and Mrs. Jiang were sitting side by side in an idle posture, drinking tea and chatting, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Jiang Baisheng has good facial features, a tall figure, and a majestic body, although he is middle-aged, he is not as potty as other men, but is exceptionally clean and crisp.

Mrs. Jiang has a soft temperament, a pair of peach blossom eyes seem to be able to easily hook people's souls, and she laughs even more, she is wearing a gorgeous pink dress, and a few strands of hair hang down from her sideburns, which makes her delicate and lovely, and she can't tell that she is already a mother of three children.

Jiang Fuyue came in and saluted: "My daughter has seen my father, madam." ”

"Fuyue is back, let me see!" Mrs. Jiang got up, greeted her enthusiastically, and circled around her several times, "Oh, look at the style of our Fuyue, it's really very different from before, and it is worthy of being the mother of the Houmen!" ”

"However, this Houmen master has a noble status, but she also has the responsibility to bear, filial piety to her mother-in-law, and raising children, this is your duty, not negligent!" Mrs. Jiang took her hand and said earnestly, "I heard that this apprenticeship banquet, your mother-in-law originally wanted you to handle it, but you hit it back, what's going on?" ”
