Chapter 41: What are you afraid of?
In the peony courtyard, a crisp bang broke the peace.
Xu clenched his fists and shouted angrily: "Damn! Dare to move Mama Jiang. ”
Qiu Tao saw that Xu's anger was flourishing, and hurriedly comforted: "The eldest lady is angry, beware of being angry!" ”
Xu didn't pay attention to it at all, and still said to himself: "Mama Jiang watched me grow up, and then married into the Hou Mansion with me, she is half of my relatives, but today, I can only watch her become a scapegoat and can't protect her." ”
"I thought that the second son would find a random subordinate to solve this matter, but I didn't expect that it was Mama Jiang who moved."
Xu Shi was so angry that his face instantly turned red.
Qiu Tao explained repeatedly: "Big lady, Mama Jiang is voluntary, not the second son's idea, so this matter has to be counted on Aunt Jiang." ”
"Jiang Xuan!"
Xu Shi gritted his teeth and instantly tightened, "She caused me to lose my henchman, and I'm not done with her!" ”
A fist fell, and the tea on the table splashed, and the surroundings were instantly quiet.
Seeing this, Qiu Tao hurriedly comforted the Xu family and sat down, "What the eldest lady said is that we must not spare her." ”
"But Aunt Jiang is treating the old lady right now, let's ......"
Xu's eyebrows frowned, and he understood Qiu Tao's desire to speak again.
She noticed that only Jiang Juan in the capital could make the old lady's condition gradually improve, so Jiang Juan couldn't move for the time being.
Although the Xu family hated Jiang Wan and wanted to kick her out immediately, he didn't want to affect the old lady because of this.
She was silent and snorted, "For the sake of her being useful, let's leave her for a while." ”
A few days passed, and the old lady gradually improved under Jiang Juan's treatment.
On this day, before she passed, she heard someone shouting: "Aunt Jiang, the old lady is awake!" ”
"Wake up!"
Jiang Wan's eyes moved, and he immediately put down the work in his hand and went straight to the old lady's courtyard.
How did she know, before she stepped on the steps in front of the room, she saw Qiu Tao stop her.
Qiu Tao stood on the top of the steps, looking at Jiang Wan condescendingly, without the slightest posture that a servant girl should have.
She said: "Aunt Jiang stayed, the eldest lady said, the old lady fell ill because of you, she just woke up, and I hope that Aunt Jiang will not go in, so as not to let the old lady be stimulated again." ”
Jiang Juan raised his eyes to look at Qiu Tao, and said coldly: "I am an aunt and a doctor, I am here for a follow-up visit, to protect the safety of the old lady, you dare to stop me!" ”
Hearing this, Qiu Tao's eyebrows moved, and she hesitated slightly.
But Xu specially explained that he couldn't let the old lady see Jiang Juan, let alone let the old lady know that the person who saved her was Jiang Juan.
She snorted again, raised her head and said sharply: "You don't have to worry about this, Aunt Jiang should go back and rest!" ”
Jiang Wan frowned instantly, and just as she was about to speak, she saw the door suddenly open.
I saw Xu Shi send one person out, and said with a smile: "Doctor, go slowly, I've worked hard for you today." ”
As soon as she lowered her eyes, her gaze instantly turned cold after she met Jiang Juan's gaze.
Jiang Juan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed.
Xu Shi was quiet for several days, and the first thing he did was to cross the river and tear down the bridge.
She snorted softly, "What do you mean, Madame?" ”
Xu Shi replied coldly: "You also saw it just now, the old lady is awake, so I don't need you anymore." ”
Jiang Juan smiled even colder: "The eldest lady crossed the river and demolished the bridge, so she couldn't see me asking for credit in front of the old lady, what are you afraid of?" ”
Her last sentence was a meaningful question, and Xu Shi blushed when he heard it.
Before the birthday banquet, the matter of Jiang Juan and Shizi spread all over the streets and alleys, but the old lady remembered the Hou Ye's entrustment, turned a blind eye to this matter, and even persuaded the Xu family to be generous.
Xu didn't want to annoy the old lady, even if she was very aggrieved in her heart, she didn't plan to pierce this piece of paper.
Now, the old lady is finally full of hostility to Jiang Juan, so naturally she can't let the old lady see Jiang Juan.
"Joke, I'm the mother of the Hou Mansion, what can I be afraid of?"
Xu Shi smiled vaguely, she hurriedly calmed down, then closed the door, led Jiang Juan to a place where there was no one on the side, and said, "Say, how much money do you want to leave?" ”
Jiang Wan was stunned, but he didn't expect that as soon as Xu Shi opened his mouth, he asked this.
She smiled and said: "I said, I am Hou Ye's woman, unless Hou Ye gives me a letter of resignation, otherwise, no matter how much you give me, I will not leave." ”
Xu Shi smiled coldly: "You follow Hou Ye and refuse to leave, isn't it just for his money?" ”
"I'll give you a thousand taels, which is enough for you to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime."
Jiang Juan froze instantly, but she didn't expect Xu to be so generous in order to get rid of her.
Since the incident in the water, Jiang Juan has been waiting for Xu's to find an opportunity to vent her anger for Mama Jiang, but she didn't expect that she would spend a few days in vain.
Today, Xu stopped her from seeing the old lady, but opened her mouth to give her a thousand taels and asked her to leave, which stunned Jiang Juan.
Madame couldn't have been stimulated that day and broke her brain, right?
Jiang Juan thought this in her heart, and it wasn't until she confirmed that the Xu family was normal that she muttered and said, "Why didn't I find out before that Madame's move was actually a big deal." ”
Xu replied: "You saved the old lady, and you are the fourth aunt of the Hou Mansion, so you deserve these." ”
One thousand taels, for an ordinary family, these can indeed be rich for a lifetime, but Jiang Xuan's mind is far more long-term than one thousand taels.
She has to settle in the most dangerous Song family, only in this way can she be more convenient to rebel against Xiao Yicheng, and it is also convenient to pay attention to Xiao Yicheng's tracing the initiative of Beiliang Xiaogong.
As for the Hou Mansion, her enemies in her previous life naturally had to slowly hollow it out.
One thousand taels? Scold! It's so cheap for them!
Jiang Juan chuckled, she had a lot of places to use money in the future, and the Hou Mansion had a lot of money, so she naturally had to find a way to make more money.
Seeing her smile but not answering, Xu frowned and said, "What, too little?" ”
Jiang Juan smiled: "Hou Ye spoiled me and spent 1,000 taels to redeem me, but Madame wants to use 1,000 taels to drive me away, so I am not afraid of being punished by Hou Ye after he finds out?" ”
Xu replied: "That's my business, you don't have to bother!" I'll only ask you once, do you want this money, or don't you want it? ”
Jiang Juan looked at Xu with a smile, she was about to speak, and faintly saw Xiao Yicheng running towards the old lady's room.
Her mind moved, and she deliberately cried softly: "Madam, what is wrong with me, and you want to drive me away?" ”
"I am dedicated to healing the old lady, and I am dedicated to waiting for the return of the marquis, and I have never had the idea of exceeding the rules, I really don't know where to offend the lady, and I ask the lady to make it clear."
Xu Shi heard it in a fog, "Aunt Jiang, what trick are you playing?" ”
Jiang Juan raised his sleeves and wiped his eyes, and the afterglow swept over Xiao Yicheng's figure, muttering, "Where do I have any tricks?" I don't know why Madame hates me so much, and she wants to spend a thousand taels to drive me away! ”
"I know, you feel uncomfortable when Mama Jiang is handed over, but this matter has nothing to do with me, and Madam can't be angry with me because of this!"
"You ......"
Xu Shi was stunned, she was about to get angry, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
She looked back and saw Xiao Yicheng standing behind her.
