Chapter 187 Fighting

The second day was the 29th day of the New Year. Since this year's twelfth lunar month is Xiaojin and there is no New Year's Eve, so today is New Year's Eve. After breakfast, Jiang Sanlang begged, "Grandmother, grandson wants to set off firecrackers."

These days, the smile on Mrs. Jiang's face has never stopped, and she will not restrain the children during the New Year. "You all go, pick the little ones, don't blow it up, Dalang is optimistic about the younger brothers."

After the grandchildren left, Mrs. Jiang called her granddaughters again, "Grandma bought you silk flowers and earrings, and they are all here. Take whatever you like."

"Thank you grandmother." The five young sisters gathered together, picked up silk flowers and put them on, and ran to look in the mirror. Jiang Liu was pulled by Mrs. Jiang. She took the pink silk flowers and pearl earrings from Jiang Liu's hand and put them on her own. Jiang Liu looked up obediently and let her grandmother rush on her head.

Liu Yatou looks exactly like her father when she was a child. She puts flowers and new clothes on her, which just makes up for the regret that Mrs. Jiang could not dress up for her son back then, and she smiled very kindly.

When the mother-in-law dressed up Liu Yatou, Yan praised, "Liu'er grows more and more beautiful as he grows. How can he be rare?" He is so beautiful at such a young age. In a few years, those who come to ask for marriage will probably have to step down the threshold of the mansion. I don't know who has the blessing of marrying Liu'er back.

Chen looked around and said that among the five children, his daughter was ordinary. Chen felt very sorry for her daughter and praised her with pity, "Rong'er is so cute than a flower when wearing this peony."

Although the uncle and aunt both have good looks, the eldest sister has small eyes and thin lips, which is not outstanding enough. However, her face is still good, and she will not be much worse after dressing up. Jiang Liu turned her head and praised with a smile, "Auntie, has the eldest sister grown up? Liuer thought she was much taller."

"It's a little bit longer." But not only grew, but the daughter is beginning to develop, with a bulge in front and a squint back. It's easy to have a child when she sees it. Chen smiled so hard that she couldn't stop smiling.

Mrs. Jiang pinched Jiang Liu's little face, "Your sisters all grow, why don't you grow? Where did you eat those old good things every day?"

Jiang Liu raised his hand and pointed at his head, "Grandma, good things are used to grow your head. Didn't grandma notice that Liu'er is getting smarter?"

As soon as these arrogant words were spoken, everyone in the room was laughed at by her.

"Grandma, someone sent two pianos in yesterday. My father said it was a pity to put them on. He asked his granddaughter to take out the one given by Uncle Chai Si today and give one to each of his eldest sister, second sister and fifth sister." Jiang Muyan followed his father's instructions and mentioned the matter of the piano.

When Jiang Mujin heard that she had another gift, she smiled so hard that she showed her dimple. Jiang Murong and Jiang Muzheng were also very happy.

Chen also smiled from ear to ear, "The children all have pianos, how can they share the good things from his second uncle?"

The second daughter-in-law left, and the son didn't know how to plan for the future. The good things in the warehouse were either divided by the nephews or the nieces. Mrs. Jiang was both relieved and distressed, and it seemed that she had to help him take care of it, "Take the piano and grandmother took a look."

Three long zither boxes were taken and placed side by side on the Eight Immortals table in the house. Jiang Mujin said, "This box is so long. Could it be that this zither is a long zither?"

Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "How can there be a long and short zither? The length of the zither is three feet, six inches and five, symbolizing the 365 days of a year. Didn't Mrs. Yazheng tell you?"

Ah... Jiang Mujin secretly saw the second and third sisters nodding slightly and said quickly, "I've told you!"

Yes, I said it! Jiang Liu nodded as well. She really remembered this, but she talked about it in Lingyouyuan, her grandmother’s house.

"You!" Mrs. Jiang lit up the forehead of her fifth granddaughter, ordered someone to open the zither box and carefully look at it, and then said, "It's all good zithers, you can choose them, you can ask for whatever you want."

The three types of things are about respecting the elderly and loving the young. The three young sisters are peers, so the younger ones choose first. Jiang Murong said, "Fifth sister, you choose first."

Jiang Mujin subconsciously glanced at his mother, and saw that his mother used her eyes to signal the outermost one. Jiang Mujin stepped forward and pointed at the one and said, "Jin'er wants this."

This one just sent by Fuzhou is not as good as the one sent by Chai Yian. Mrs. Jiang asked with a smile, "Why did Jin'er choose this one?"

Of course, it cannot be said that her mother asked her to choose. Jiang Mujin found a reason she thought was the most suitable, "because this one looked the brightest."

"Silly girl, this one is placed at the outermost point, isn't it the brightest?" Mrs. Jiang smiled and tilted on the cushion, and the whole room was laughing. Yan smiled and scolded her daughter, "If you don't look at the wood, don't listen to the sound, just look at the brightness? Wait, when Mrs. Yazheng knows, she will definitely not recognize you as a disciple!"

Jiang Mujin stuck out her tongue and giggled. After the fifth sister was finished choosing, Jiang Murong smiled and said, "Second sister, you choose."

It was a critical moment, and Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu both secretly clenched their fists. From the bottom of their hearts, they hoped that their second sister would get the best one. She practiced the piano the most, and that the good piano would be valuable only when it was in her hands.

Seeing the concubine's daughter walking to the Eight Immortals table and raising her hand to get the second piano sent from Fuzhou, Chen was satisfied. Unexpectedly, before the concubine's daughter could speak, her daughter came forward and spoke, "Can the second sister give me this photo?"

Jiang Muzheng was slightly stunned and hurriedly said, "Okay."

This silly girl with no eyesight! Chen was anxious, "How could he compete with his sister? Rong'er, don't be out of rules!"

Mrs. Jiang asked with a smile, "Why did Rong'er change with her sister?"

Jiang Murong also found a reason she thought was the most suitable, "Sisters are humble, and the one left for their granddaughter is the best piano. But... the granddaughter prefers the new one. For some reason, when the granddaughter sees this piano, he feels very comfortable."

Yan clapped his hands and said, "This is fate. Rong'er and this Qin are destined to be together."

It is fate to get a good piano! Chen was unhappy and stared at the concubine's daughter with her eyes, hoping that she would give in. Unexpectedly, the mother-in-law said, "That's good. You all have good pianos, and this year you must practice with Mrs. Yazheng to make a good piano. Don't let the elders down. When you go to learn piano after the first month, you will take the new piano with you."

"Grandma, can we still learn the piano with our wife?" Jiang Muyan was extremely surprised.

Mrs. Jiang smiled and nodded, "My wife has received the New Year gift we sent, and she is most likely to be separated from each other."

"Yes!" the little sisters responded happily.

Seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, Chen was unwilling to accept it, but when she returned to the room from the North Courtyard, she calmly said nothing.

Jiang Muzheng naturally understood why her mother was unhappy. She really liked the piano that Uncle Chai Si gave her. This year, she used it when she lived with her third sister in the West Courtyard. The tone was very comfortable. The eldest sister intended to let her, and Jiang Muzheng also understood that she followed her back to the room and sincerely thanked her, "Thank you, my sister for giving in."

Jiang Murong glared at her eyes, "Who made you? I really like Xinqin and don't want anyone else to use it."

Before Jiang Muzheng could reply, he heard Mrs. Chang shout, "Madam, Madam, the Third Young Master is fighting with someone!"

When Jiang Murong heard that his younger brother had started fighting with someone, he carried his skirt and ran out, "Madam, who did the third brother fight with someone?"

Chen also ran out of the house, "Who are you with?"

"With Erlang and Sanlang of the Meng family!" Mrs. Chang was so anxious, "Uncle, the second and third masters have both gone out, what should I do!"

When Jiang Murong heard that his younger brother had started fighting with the Meng family, his little eyes immediately widened, "They two beat Sanlang?"

"Isn't that true!" Mr. Chang stamped her feet in a hurry, "Young Master Ling won't let others interfere. Madam, hurry up, those two boys in the Meng family are ruthless!"

Just as Chen was about to run out, Jiang Murong reached out to stop her, "Mom, don't go, I'll go and see. With Jiang Ling here, Sanlang can't suffer any loss."

"Sanlang has been beaten, but he can't suffer any loss!" Chen shook off his daughter's hand and ran out with big strides. Jiang Murong had to follow him with her skirt, and Jiang Muzheng also ran out.

After running to the door in one breath, Chen saw his son who was pressed into the snow by Meng Erlang and Meng Sanlang at a glance, and screamed, "Sanlang!"
