Chapter 403
Jiang Jinzong, who was eager to take Jiang Ling to the front of the soldiers of the Zuowu Guard, sank his eyebrows and asked, "Mr. Jiang actually took your horse to the yamen?"
Jiang Ling quickly explained, "Grandpa Jiang, don't misunderstand it. Ling'er was worried when she saw her father being too worried about the yamen's officer, so she took the initiative to ask the yamen to ride my horse to deliver the letter."
Before Jiang Jinzong could ask why the government offices in Kang'an in the capital were short of horses, Jiang Ling took the initiative to explain, "Only the government offices in the five cities of Jingzhao have horses, so they consider that there are many people in the remaining four cities. Passing letters with horses may hurt the people. Once there are fires, if there are no horses to send messages back and forth, the equipment to draw water to extinguish fires will be severe. Therefore, my father will bring his own horses and be prepared for any accidents."
As soon as Jiang Ling finished speaking, Mr. Jiang came back from the yamen, entered the living room and clasped his fists, "I'm late to get down, General Lao has been waiting for a long time."
Jiang Jinzong raised his hand to help him, "It was me who came here without any wits. Please don't blame Lord Jiang. The elder raised Ling'er and learned that he was well-educated. The old lady of the noble mansion treated him as a legitimate grandson. Ling'er stayed in the Jiang family. I don't worry. After returning, I will tell Brother Ren about this matter and ask him to be at ease."
Jiang Feng stood up and said more sincerely than Jiang Jinzong, "Ling'er can get the general so much attention. If the old general Ren had spiritual energy in the sky, he would be extremely pleased to see this scene."
If Jiang Feng had not had his eyes clear and sincere look, Jiang Jinzong would have felt that he was ridiculing himself. Could it be that Qiu Jing had not told the Jiang family about his relationship with the Ren family? That's right! If Qiu Jing told Jiang Feng the truth, how could Jiang Feng, a villain who was changing with the wind, let Ren Lingsheng enter the Jiang Mansion?
Qiu Jing really made a good move. He personally helped Ren Lingsheng up Jiang Feng's tree, in order to allow Ren Lingsheng to rely on Jiang Feng to shelter from the wind and rain before he became an underage. Now the tree is in shady, but it is still unknown who can shelter from the wind and rain.
Jiang Jinzong, who was planning to take over the chess piece, said politely, "You are welcome, Lord Jiang, the Ren family should thank you the most."
Jiang Feng and Jiang Jinzong looked at each other and laughed, sat in hand in hand, and started chatting intimately. Jiang Ling stood gentlely behind his father and listened carefully.
When Mrs. Jiang learned that her son had returned, she breathed a sigh of relief and leaned gently on the cushion, "We don't have to worry about the front yard, go and call the third and sixth yatos over."
"Yes." Ya responded and ordered someone to go to the West Courtyard to invite two girls.
After Jiang Muyan and Jiang Ling entered the house to salute their grandmother and mother, they briefly talked about going to the grandmother's house, and then presented the pastries they bought. Mrs. Jiang nodded slightly, "Did you go home with Ling'er?"
"Yes." Jiang Muyan explained, "After buying pastries, my granddaughter and sister met her second brother and the others for a while when they were out of school, she waited at the intersection of Zhuangyuan Street for a while, and then came back with her second brother and the others."
Mrs. Jiang nodded and asked, "Who is the idea of going to the front yard to meet General Jiang?"
Seeing that her grandmother had no smile on her face, Jiang Liu knew that she had guessed it right. However, she did not rush to speak, but her sister told the story. Jiang Muyan replied, "As soon as her granddaughter and sister entered the mansion, she heard from the managers that General Jiang was coming. A person who looked like a deputy general came forward and said that General Jiang brought several boxes of gifts, hoping to meet the Jiang brothers and sisters who grew up with Ling. She also said that we were just back and asked the manager to go in and report quickly. When the granddaughter heard that his grandmother and mother were in the hall, she thought that you asked your granddaughter to go in with the second brother."
Mrs. Jiang frowned slightly and asked again, "Why didn't you go in afterwards?"
"It was Liumei who asked Sister Qi. When she learned that the second sister and fifth sister were not in the hall, her grandmother did not send anyone to the backyard. Ling said that there were four sisters in the family, and it was appropriate to go in together. He asked her granddaughter and sixth sister to come in and call her second sister and fifth sister. He followed her second brother in the first place." Jiang Muyan continued, "After the granddaughter and sixth sister returned to the backyard, Liuer said that we should wait for our grandmother to send someone to summon, so we have been waiting in the yard."
After listening to the causes and consequences, Mrs. Jiang seriously urged her granddaughters, "You have done a good job and you must do this in the future. If you have a grandmother or someone around your mother who has to come over to invite her, you don't want to go there."
"Yes." Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu responded.
After the two children went out, Mrs. Jiang's face sank. Ya was standing next to her with her hands down, her eyes also felt a little heavy. Why did Jiang Jinzong meet Yan'er and Liu'er?
Mrs. Jiang paused for a moment before saying, "There should be a few more clever managers in the mansion. But this kind of thing that is fooled by outsiders in her mansion must not happen again."
Yazheng did not answer the conversation. She was a bride who had just entered the door and should not have wanted to interfere in the human affairs in the mansion.
Mrs. Jiang looked up at her daughter-in-law and ordered, "Go and call Jiang Ming in."
"Yes." After Jingxiu went out to pass the message, Yazheng took advantage of going to the kitchen to urge her to eat.
When Mrs. Jiang saw her leaving, she looked up and pressed her forehead. If the eldest daughter-in-law had half the ability of her second daughter-in-law, she would not be so tired.
Yazheng had just left the northern courtyard and met his sister-in-law who was about to enter the courtyard. Before her sister-in-law could say anything, Yazheng explained, "Just now, my mother asked me to come over and ask the girls in Kang'an's various prefectures, and a chance came to the mansion..."
Chen, who had just arrived for General Jiang, was unhappy with his second brother and sister, told his second brother and sister to accompany him. When he heard the second brother and sister, he immediately ignored this and grabbed her hand and said, "Yes, why did I forget that you used to walk around in various prefectures! Brother and sister, tell me, which girl is the best?"
Yazheng smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. This cannot be explained clearly in just one or two sentences."
Yes, yes! Chen said anxiously, "My brother and sister go and do it first. I will go in and say a few words to my mother and come out to find you."
After watching his sister-in-law enter, Yazheng returned to the west courtyard and saw Liu'er comforting his sister with his head down. She couldn't help laughing. Although Liu'er was three years younger than Yan'er, Yazheng always felt that she was the sister.
Seeing that his mother was back, Jiang Muyan stood up and lowered her head and said, "Mother, my daughter is embarrassing you."
Mrs. Yazheng first held her cold little hand before patting Liu'er's small shoulder, "Liu'er went to the big kitchen for me to urge you. The meals in the front yard must be carefully and there is no tolerance for any carelessness. Tell our kitchen in the yard if you want to eat, so that they can prepare them."
"Okay." Jiang Liu picked up a pack of small fish she bought and dried out of the room and rushed to the big kitchen. The big cat in the kitchen had just given birth to a litter of kittens, and they were all so cute that she wanted to go and see them ten times a day. It would be better for her to leave it to her mother to explain it. My mother would say more than she could, and her sister would believe her words.
After Jiang Liu brought the message to the manager in the big kitchen, he took the dried fish to the woodshed in the south and found that Jiang Sanlang was also there.
