Chapter 44: You Still Won't Let Me Be Quiet
Jiang Juan barely slept all night.
She knew that once the old lady of the Jiang family came out of Ruyisi, she would be angry with Jiang Zongcheng and point all the fingers at the Sheng family and her mother.
But it was obviously the old lady of the Jiang family who came to make trouble first.
But Jiang Zongcheng has always been foolish and filial, and there is a Jiang family around him who likes to fan the yin wind and ignite ghosts, I am afraid that the Jiang family will completely want to break off the relationship with the Sheng family this time.
But how to get rid of it, there is only one way, and that is to reconcile with your mother.
On the fourth watch, Jiang Juan got up early, came to the vicinity of Ruyi Division, saw the Jiang family's carriage pick up the old lady, and immediately went to the Jingci Temple outside the city.
As soon as the sky was bright, there were already many people, waiting in line for incense.
Jiang Juan went all the way in, asked a little monk, and finally came to the back mountain under the guidance of the little monk.
Halfway up the mountain, there is a secluded meditation room.
In the morning, the clouds on the mountain are ethereal, quiet and silent, although it is hot summer, but the wind in the mountains and forests still carries a slight cold, blowing on the body, with a trace of coolness.
Jiang Juan came to the door of the meditation room, inexplicably a little nervous.
At this moment, the door of the meditation room was suddenly opened, and a woman wearing a simple gray robe walked out of it.
When he saw the person at the door, his expression was stunned, and countless emotions flashed in his eyes, like surprise, joy, and even some fear.
"Mother."
Jiang Juan took the initiative to step forward and called Sheng Lingyin's mother.
Sheng Lingyin stared at her, opened her lips slightly, and many words stuck in her throat, and finally turned into a flat voice, "Wan'er is here." ”
Jiang Juan looked at Sheng Lingyin, her face was not powdered, she looked clean and simple, although her face was not as charming as Jiang's, but it was full of vivid and generous beauty.
"Over the years, I have been coming to see my mother, but it is unfilial piety."
Jiang Juan knelt down.
When Sheng Lingyin saw this scene, the tip of her nose was sour, she couldn't hold back her emotions anymore, and stepped forward to hug Jiang Juan, "Juan'er, it's your mother who can't stand you." ”
Jiang Juan was hugged by Sheng Lingyin, and there was an inexplicable warmth in her heart, and she reached out to hug Sheng Lingyin, "Mother is suffering." ”
"It's not bitter, it's not bitter at all."
Not long after, Sheng Lingyin took Jiang Juan to sit down at the wooden table at the door of the meditation room, made another cup of hot tea, and prepared a plate of peach blossom crisp.
The mother and daughter were not as angry as just now, Sheng Lingyin sat next to her, looked at Jiang Juan's face full of dark spots, and quietly listened to Jiang Juan's story about what had happened recently.
"At the beginning, it was Jiang Zongcheng who broke his promise and failed me. I don't want to fulfill him and Jiang Yimei, I know that once I reconcile with Jiang Zongcheng, you and Xingyu will never be the descendants of the Guogong Mansion again. ”
"But I have no other way, I'd rather use this way to break the net and deal with him to this day."
"Now, this day, it's time to come or to come."
Sheng Lingyin looked at Jiang Juan's face, with tears in her eyes, "I just didn't expect that Jiang Yimei seemed to be kind and weak, but she was so vicious." ”
Jiang Juan saw that she was about to cry, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief, dipped it in some tea, and wiped the dark spots on her face.
"Mother rest assured, I was lucky to meet an old miracle doctor, who saw me pitiful and gave me an antidote. Now this dark spot is actually not that deep, I used it to deceive the Jiang family. ”
Sheng Lingyin's eyes were a little surprised, "Really? ”
"Really."
After the atmosphere eased, Jiang Juan still couldn't help but say, "My mother has been cultivating outside for so long, in fact, my grandfather's family has always been worried about you and missed you." ”
"Mother doesn't have to be so compromised for me and my eldest brother, and she doesn't have to get herself into this dire situation for the sake of a rotten man."
"Mother, reconcile with him and return to his grandfather, okay?"
During these days, living in the Sheng family, I often heard my grandmother mention my mother, and whenever I talked about my mother, my grandmother always couldn't help crying, and her words were full of love for my mother.
Sheng Lingyin lowered her eyes, her face was full of sadness, and her tone was desperate, "At the beginning, despite the opposition of my parents, I wanted to marry Jiang Zongcheng, but now that I have ended up like this, I don't have the face to see them again." ”
"Mother's ......"
"Juan'er, needless to say, I know it in my heart."
Jiang Wan pursed her lips and was silent for a long time.
At this time, Moon Ash stepped forward quickly and said in a low voice, "Jiang Zongcheng is here." ”
Hearing this, Sheng Lingyin let out a long sigh and looked at the bottom of the mountainside, "Jiang Zongcheng wants to reconcile with me, and he has to see if he has the ability first." ”
"Juan'er, you go into the house first."
Jiang Juan didn't say anything, listened to Sheng Lingyin's words, and entered the meditation room.
It didn't take long for Jiang Zongcheng to be alone and came to Sheng Lingyin.
Sheng Lingyin has been cultivating outside the Qing Dynasty for nearly ten years, and in the first eight years, she has never seen Jiang Zongcheng once, but in the past two years, Jiang Zongcheng has been more diligent.
But every time I come, it's nothing more than saying one thing.
It is to be reconciled with her.
At this moment, Jiang Zongcheng stood in front of Sheng Lingyin, noticed the teacup and peach blossom cake in front of Sheng Lingyin, and his eyes showed disdain.
"You're idle."
Sheng Lingyin smiled slightly, "Jiang Guogong seems to have come earlier than ever this time. ”
"Did you come to reconcile with me again?"
Jiang Zongcheng's face was expressionless, and he took out a letter from his sleeve and threw it in front of Sheng Lingyin.
"This time it's not Heli, it's a divorce!"
"Sheng Lingyin, I'm going to divorce you!"
"I have done my best to you, since you are ruthless, you want to force me to leave you a reputation of being divorced as a concubine of the Hou Mansion, then Hugh blames me for being unjust."
"Cover the handprint, you and I, from now on, the love between husband and wife is over, and it will be irrelevant."
Looking at the word 'letter of resignation' written on the letter, Sheng Lingyin looked at Jiang Zongcheng again, and suddenly laughed sarcastically.
"What are you laughing at?" Jiang Zongcheng asked impatiently.
Sheng Lingyin's eyes showed contempt, and she picked up the letter, "It is often said that a noble son comes from a poor family, and it is often said that men are the most likely to see different thoughts." ”
"Jiang Zongcheng, do you remember when you first asked to marry me, you wagged your tail and begged for mercy?"
"It's the same as when Jiang Yimei first entered the mansion."
"You two are really a natural pair."
In just two sentences, Jiang Zongcheng was completely angered, and with a wave of his sleeves, he waved the tea cup and pastry in front of Sheng Lingyin to the ground.
Jiang Juan almost wanted to rush out and beat someone, but one hand was already holding the leg of a stool in the room.
Sheng Lingyin was not angry, stood up, walked to Jiang Zongcheng's side, and stared at the scenery in the distance, "I thought that if I escaped and hid quietly, the Jiang family would have a peaceful day." ”
"I didn't expect that you still want to force me."
"In that case......
Sheng Lingyin pondered for a moment, and suddenly a sentence came out-
"When you ascended to the throne step by step, I wrote down every account of the bribes, including using the status of the national prince to buy an official position for your concubine."
"Jiang Guogong, do you want to see it for yourself?"
