Mr. Jiang chewed the fish balls and smiled cunningly.

Jiang Huai immediately said, "Second brother Meng!"

"Those who know me are the third brother." After drinking the soup, Mr. Jiang said, "When he searched the Meng family a few days ago, the gold, silver and treasures he found were only four boxes. The first thing I thought was that he might hide his family wealth elsewhere. People like Meng Huizhou should be assured to hand over the money to outsiders to take care of?"

Jiang Song and Jiang Huai shook their heads together.

Mr. Jiang became more and more proud, "I have heard of it for a long time that some corrupt officials are afraid that after the capsized ship, they will set up a backup plan in advance and leave incense for themselves. Then I guessed that Meng Huizhou might have a son. He secretly put his family fortune in the hands of that son."

"Why didn't it be placed there in Meng Xunyi?" Jiang Song asked, adding a few fish balls to his second brother.

Mr. Jiang drank the soup, and Jiang Huai said, "Because it was placed in Meng Xunyi's hands, Meng Er and Meng San would definitely not do it after they knew it."

It makes sense, Jiang Song nodded.

"I asked my mother, and my mother said that Meng Huizhou's two concubines had children killed by his wife, so this son must be his slander. If he had children, where would he hide his son?" Jiang Erye sold a lawsuit. Seeing that his eldest brother and third brother were staring at him, he continued proudly, "I asked Jiang Ming to investigate where Meng Huizhou had gone out of Kang'an City over the years, and found that he had been to Fugou County three times in more than ten years. I guess that the Meng family's slander might be in Fugou County."

It's reasonable and the second brother is becoming more and more promising. Jiang Song nodded with relief.

"Fugou County is not small, and I don't know where Meng Huizhou went. So I used a local method to send a letter to the magistrate of Fugou County, asking him to compile the wealthy families named Meng in the county into a book and send it to the Xicheng Military and Ma Si as soon as possible." Mr. Jiang stopped and looked at his eldest brother and third brother.

Jiang Huai immediately raised his thumbs up, "Second brother is smart!"

Jiang Songze asked, "How could you be sure that the secret child must be Meng?"

"Does my elder brother think that with Meng Huizhou's temperament, can his son change his surname?"

No, Jiang Song and Jiang Huai shook their heads.

"When the list of wealthy households surnamed Meng in Fugou County was in my hands, I counted more than forty households. But I only scanned it and guessed which one might be Meng Huizhou's secret child!" After Mr. Jiang said that, he looked at his elder brother and third brother again.

Jiang Huai immediately urged, "How did the second brother find out?"

Jiang Song glared, "Isn't you tell me quickly!"

"There is a family whose father is dead, and the head of the family is only thirty years old. The surname is Meng and his name is Chengye. Meng Chengye has two sons: Meng Shaokun and Meng Shaopeng. I knew it was this family at first glance, because these three names were raised by Meng Huizhou!" After Mr. Jiang said that, he stared at his elder brother and third brother again.

Jiang Song…

Jiang Huai raised two thumbs up, "Second brother is so smart! These three names are the same as the Meng family when they hear it! Meng Huizhou is the best time to save face. The names of their children and grandchildren are checked and then thought about them, so each one is so awkward!"

"That's it!" Mr. Jiang and his third brother touched the bowl.

The two brothers looked at the elder brother with bowls, and Jiang Songze said, "You are blind cats and encountering dead rats, it all depends on luck."

Jiang Huai smiled and touched his bowl on the eldest brother's bowl, "But the second brother touched it right, which means that luck has come to our side."

Yes, Jiang Song touched his bowl with the two brothers, and the three brothers laughed. After drinking the soup, Jiang Song said, "Tomorrow is the fourth day of the fourth month. Let's put all other things aside and prepare for the matter of accepting the adopted son in the future. We will welcome the two princes into the mansion, so we will not be careless at all."

"yes."

"yes."

After the three brothers separated, Mr. Jiang Er returned to the west courtyard and saw that the lights in the landlord's room were still on. He quickly stepped into the house and found that Yazheng was already asleep. No matter how late he came back in the past, Yazheng would always wait. Today she slept so heavily, probably because she was frightened at Hanshan Temple yesterday. Mr. Jiang Er could not bear to go to bed and disturb her sleep well, so he turned around and left the house to go to bed with his son.

As soon as he entered the room, Jiang Ling woke up. Seeing his father coming in, Jiang Ling thought he knew he had been waiting for him for the past two days, so he came to see him, so he got up and lighted the lights and asked, "Have you just returned, what time is it now?"

"It's almost ugly." Mr. Jiang yawned.

Jiang Ling was very moved by his father's arrival so late. He stood up and said, "Father is tired. You go back and rest first. I will go to find you tomorrow morning. I will not be in a hurry at this time..."

Before Jiang Ling could finish speaking, Mr. Jiang er-in-law lay on the bed and closed his eyes.

Jiang Ling had a wheat-colored face and stared at her father for a while before she waved the candles and climbed to the inside of the bed to sleep. When the rooster crowed, Jiang Ling woke up and stared at her father who was sleeping soundly for a while before she stood up and went to the study room to study, and then went to the garden for morning exercise. When he was sweating all over, he was called by his grandmother in the pavilion.

"Did your father slept with you last night?"

Jiang Ling thought his grandmother was unhappy about this, so he explained, "Last night when my father was approaching the ugly man, he fell asleep. The grandson wanted to persuade him to return to the west courtyard, but he couldn't bear it because his father seemed to be exhausted."

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Jiang was happy, "Your father has worked hard these days. Let him sleep. You will go back to the West Courtyard to wash up later, and come over to have a meal after washing up."

"Yes." Jiang Ling was of course happy to see her sister after going back to the west courtyard to wash.

When Jiang Ling arrived at the west courtyard, she realized that her mother had just gotten up. Yazheng had a good night's sleep. When she woke up, she realized that the second master was sleeping with her son. She went to the north courtyard with some anxiety, waiting to be taught by her mother-in-law.

Mrs. Jiang heard that she slept heavily last night and didn’t even know that her husband had returned to the room, but she was not angry at all. She even asked her to sit down beside her, which made Yazheng feel a little flattered. Chen felt uncomfortable when she looked at her and said, “The second brother and sister slept heavily at night, but she didn’t know that the second brother came back. It’s not a solution to go on for a long time. In my opinion, it’s better to build the cross-yard of the West Courtyard as soon as possible.”

As soon as she said this, everyone in the room became quiet. Jiang Liu's face sank. The burned cross-yard in the west yard was for the two concubines of his father. The aunt's words meant: Since the second brother and sister cannot serve her husband, just take a concubine for her second brother. Not to mention her mother, even Jiang Liu was unhappy when she heard this.

However, it was not her turn to speak here. Jiang Liu looked up at her grandmother. Yan Shi threw comforting eyes to her second sister-in-law. Yazheng lowered her eyes and did not receive her kindness.

It was less than a month since the second daughter-in-law entered the house. The eldest sister-in-law mentioned the matter of taking a concubine to her second brother in front of the children. It was really unreasonable. Mrs. Jiang glanced at the eldest daughter-in-law and then looked around everyone and said, "Tomorrow is the fifth day of the day. Today, you must sort out what you want to do tomorrow. Let's have a meal."
