Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 458 Preparation

The next breakfast was spent in silence. Because there is an important matter in the house tomorrow, the adults of the Jiang family told the yamen to leave today, and the children did not have to go to the academy. Even Jiang Dalang came back from the Guozijian. After the meal, everyone greeted him. The prince and other guests were busy. After Jiang Song summoned the servants in the courtyard to teach the soldiers to assign errands, the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard circled around, and finally came to the study where the children were studying. He gently pushed open the door and entered the room. Seeing that the second brother was sleeping soundly with the quilt in his arms, he withdrew and whispered, "Guard the courtyard gate and let him sleep soundly."

   "Yes." Jiang Hou'er responded immediately, Second Master is really tired these days.

   Jiang Er Ye slept soundly in the house, but the relatives of the An and Meng families outside the house were anxious to sleep and eat. Wang Wenqiao's divorce of his wife blew up on their heads like an arrow: Meng Huizhou and An Yunchang were arrested. Although the people from the two houses have not yet been sent to prison, they are locked in the house and are not allowed to enter or leave. This is obviously true. Something big is about to happen. Wang Wenqiao has divorced his wife to protect himself, what should they do?

  Crisis is imminent, self-protection is the most important thing! When all the families were racking their brains to think about how to distance themselves from the Meng and An families, there were also many gloating about the misfortune and calculating to gain benefits from it. A few days ago, Ning Zhen, who had corrupted several thousand taels of silver from the Meng family, happily discussed with her mother, "The Meng family's house in Shifeng Lane will not be able to be preserved, we will find a way to buy his family's house and move it with the Jiang family. be neighbors."

Mrs. Ning thought this idea was a great idea, "buy the Meng family's house, and then marry a girl from the Jiang family for your second brother. We will be at ease in the future. Mom regrets it, if I had known that the Jiang family was today, we should have done it in the first place. Run a few more times and tell the marriage of your second brother and Jiang Murong. If you want to marry again now, you can only aggrieve your second brother to marry the concubine of the Jiang family's big house. "

   Although Jiang Muzheng is a concubine, she looks good and can stand on the stage. Besides, it will be easy to get back with a concubine. Mrs. Ning rolled her eyes, "It's a pity that we don't have an invitation from the Jiang family, otherwise we can take your second brother over to explore tomorrow."

Ning Zhen rolled his eyes and whispered to his mother, "I heard that Jiang Feng and Liu Cheng had a big quarrel by the Qingping River, but now it seems that the fourth sister entering the Jianghou Mansion in Yiyi is still a blessing or a curse. .Even if there is no invitation, I will send a generous gift tomorrow, so that the Jiang family can understand our intentions."

   "Tomorrow there will be many distinguished guests from the Jiang family, so how can you squeeze in. According to my mother, today is the most suitable gift." Mrs. Ning immediately went to prepare a gift and asked her son to send it to the Jiang family.

   When Ning Zhen took the carriage to Shifeng Alley, he found that the carriage that wanted to go to Jiang's house to give gifts was already lined up outside the alley, not to mention the gate of Jiang's house, he couldn't even enter the alley of Jiang's house!

   Even if you enter the carriage in Shifeng Lane, you will not be able to enter Jiangfu. Because Jiang's house was dressed in new clothes and had an attentive attitude, the housekeeper was old and deaf. If you tell him three, he thinks you are talking about mountains; if you tell him about mountains, he hears three again, so that the stewards of the various capitals who came to give gifts are anxious but can't lose their temper.

   The noise outside could not reach the study in the front yard. Jiang Hou'er, who was guarding the door for Second Master Jiang, sat in front of the door, opened his mouth slowly, and yawned loudly. Huyantu tiptoed over and whispered, "Shengpingfang Wang's girl is here, and she wants to go to the house to meet the third girl. What do you say?"

  The Wang family is causing people to come here to cause trouble, because they don't understand the rules. But people have already arrived at the gate of the mansion, and if they don't go in, they won't be able to answer. Putting this matter in front of the second lady will make it difficult for her, Jiang Hou'er whispered, "The second lady and the third lady are busy, you tell the sixth lady about this, and ask the sixth lady to make up your mind."

Jiang Liuteng, who was busy with his mother and sister cleaning up the wing of the west courtyard and preparing to welcome guests tomorrow, said to the nurse, "It's not a good day for cousins ​​to come in and cry, so the nurse will go there in person, please come back. Just say that after these two days, my sister and I will go to them to make amends."

The nurse came back not long after she went out, and said in a low voice, "I really made the girl guess. The two cousins ​​of the Wang family cried so hard that they came out without telling her father. If the master really stops them, they won't even be able to get out of the gate. The Wang family wants the two cousins ​​to come and see what you and the third girl have to say."

  Everyone has been expelled from the house after resting, so what are you talking about? Jiang Liu shook his head, and was about to turn around to go to work, but saw her father came back with the cloth tiger she put on her brother's in his hand.

  After the little girl greeted her, Erye Jiang put the tiger cloth into her arms, "Where's your mother?"

   Jiang Liu hugged his little tiger and said sweetly, "Mother is packing things with my sister in the house."

   Jiang Erye pinched the little girl's chubby face and walked into the main room. When Jiang Muyan saw her father came back, she got up and saluted and backed out. Mrs. Yazheng stepped forward to wait on her husband to wash up, and Erye Jiang wiped the water off her face and explained, "I came back last night to see that you were sleeping soundly, so I'll go to Ling'er. It was a good night there. Feeling better today? If you still feel unwell, then let Lang Zhong come over and take a look."

   Let Lang Zhong take a look, and he also prescribed some soothing decoction. Although it is not yet possible to determine whether she is pregnant or not, Yazheng also thinks that the medicine is three-point poisonous, and it is better to use less or less. She said gently, "The concubine slept all night and is already well."

  But looking at her face, it doesn't look like she's all right. Jiang Erye didn't ask any more questions, and went to the North Court to greet his mother first. Mrs. Jiang pretended to be sullen and scolded, "If you wake up later, you will not even have lunch. I don't have a place for you to stand here. Go back to your own courtyard to eat!"

   Jiang Erye went back to the west yard to eat, and then went to the front yard to work. There were many good brothers in the front yard who helped, including him, the eldest brother and the third brother. Jiang Erye kept his feet on the ground and was busy until it was dark before returning to the hospital to take a bath and rest.

   After laying down after turning off the lights, Erye Jiang told his wife, "Tomorrow will definitely be crowded. If you can't take care of it, let them go. You just need to take care of your mother and two children."

   "My concubine understands." Ya Zheng responded, and told her husband not at ease, "Tomorrow, there will be more things in the front court, and Er Ye should pay more attention."

   Jiang Erye said happily, "Tomorrow, the governor of the government will come over to preside over the overall situation. There will be Huang Li and the generals who will take care of them. Ling'er and I will just accompany the two princes to talk and talk."

  Ya Zheng lightly yawned, "Second Master is still thoughtful. With the Governor and his wife here, the concubine also feels at ease in body and mind."

Jiang Erye immediately became interested, and Balabara talked about what other arrangements he had made in addition to asking the Fu Yin Lord to preside over the overall situation. After talking, Jiang Er Ye finally said, "The day after tomorrow, you will go to the Fu Yin Lord in person. Madam, thank you Madam Zhang."

   Jiang Erye finished speaking, but he couldn't hear his wife's response, and when he turned around, he found that his wife had fallen asleep. Jiang Erye gently pulled the quilt to cover her exposed arms, stared at her thin face for a while, then yawned and closed her eyes with peace of mind.
