Chapter 793 Sisters' Night Talk
"This is really a fish looking for fish and shrimps, and a turtle looking for turtles." Mr. Jiang shook his head and sighed, "Li Zhaozhou is in trouble. He will not go to the Minister of Personnel and the Censor to discuss countermeasures, but instead listen to Liu Cheng."
Jiang Houer smiled and said, "He is afraid he will lose his nest and can't get out of the turtle."
Mr. Jiang nodded, "Continue to stare at Liu Cheng and see what he is going to do."
After Jiang Houer withdrew, Jiang Ling whispered, "Why should my father still bother with Liu Cheng? If you think he is annoying, send someone to abandon him."
"What do you know? Killing him is a bargain." Mr. Jiang squinted his son, lay on the bed with his hands as a pillow, crossed his legs, "You continue, what is the result of the competition with the second prince?"
Seeing his father lying on his bed again, Jiang Ling pursed his lips and continued, "Because he said that he could not give in and had to do his best, he let go of Qinglong's saddle button. After two moves against him, he was defeated."
Hum? Mr. Jiang squinted his son, "You learned this trick from your father, right? Is it a move you, a father, defeated Uncle Guo by this trick."
"Yeah." Jiang Ling honestly admitted that in the situation at that time, he could not lose too clearly, nor could he defeat the second prince, only this trick could be used.
"I heard you say this, the second prince is a bit similar to Saburo." Mr. Jiang sighed, "Thank you for your hard work with such a naughty child."
Jiang Ling shook his head, "I don't think it's hard. Although the second prince is naughty, the eldest prince is very good. He reads a lot of books, has a broad vision, and has unique knowledge. He has learned a lot from him. Seeing Kang Yueliang and Huang Jianyun get along with the two princes, he also learned a lot of ways to get along with the king and his ministers. There are also Marquis Pingxi and General Kong who have taught them all. In the past few months, I have gained more than in the Yulin Guard. Thank you for your good office and sending your son to the Yulin Guard and Qianniu Guard."
Mr. Jiang couldn't hold back his upturned mouth. He was about to say a few words of humility, but he heard his son say, "It's getting late, and my second sister is going to get married tomorrow. It's time for you to go back and rest."
Mr. Jiang shook his head, "Your second sister is married and you brothers are there. You can't take Father's presence. Father's sleep here tonight. Come up and lie down, and tell me how the eldest prince is unique and what you have learned from Kang Yueliang and the others."
Upon hearing this, a black line appeared on Jiang Ling's face, and he reminded him word by word, "Father, my son is already thirteen years old!"
Mr. Jiang snorted, "You have only been back for two nights a month, and you will be back to Suzhou next year. Do your own calculations, how many hours can we fathers stay together and say a few words?"
Yes, can he say a few more words to his father? The reluctance flooded from the bottom of his heart. Jiang Ling raised his hand to put out the candle on the table. As soon as he walked to the bed, he heard his father say, "You sleep outside, you have grown up, and you will be thirsty for your father later, so you get up and add tea to your father."
Jiang Ling...
Tonight, not only did Mr. Jiang not go back to the west courtyard, but also did not come back to Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu. The four sisters of the Jiang family squeezed on Jiang Muzheng's bed, covered the same quilt and whispered.
When the eldest sister Jiang Murong got married, they didn't do this because Jiang Murong stayed with her mother the night before her marriage, and listened to what her mother should know. The second sister was born in a illegitimate family and her aunt could not come back in Balizhuang. The legitimate mother told her what she should know and left. So naturally, the three sisters stayed.
The three sisters squeezed together with her, which made Jiang Muzheng's heart warm. Jiang Mujin told her second sister, "After the second sister gets married, don't give your dowry maid to her second brother-in-law as a concubine. Look at what life is the eldest sister living now."
After hearing what Jiang Murong said, two dowry maids were the concubines for her husband and the other promised them to be the wife of the Li family. The maid climbed onto her master's bed and became a concubine, and her heart was naturally different. She respected Jiang Murong on the surface, but tried her best to compete for favor with her in secret.
Jiang Muzheng responded softly, feeling uneasy about how to live after marrying a wife.
Jiang Muyan thought that her second sister was born in illegitimate and no one had taught her any reason, so she took advantage of the night to cover her and whispered, "Parents give it, not. If your second brother-in-law's mother sends her to your yard, you must not accept it, and you must also hold her as soon as possible. This grasp does not mean scolding her for being honest or being afraid of being beaten, but really grasping her shortcomings. If this maid is a child of the family, she must hold her parents. If she buys her house and has family outside, she must hold her family so that she can't turn out your palm..."
Jiang Liu listened carefully and admired her sister deeply. She wanted to ask her who told her this.
After Jiang Muyan finished speaking, she continued, "After the second sister married, it will be easy to deal with everyone around her, but there is one thing that must not be let go."
"Dowry!" Jiang Liu answered quickly.
"No," Jiang Muyan hugged her sister tightly and continued, "No matter what the Liao family tells you, you can't hand over the dowry to them, especially Hua Xiangrong. The manager of Hua Xiangrong in Nanshi was carefully selected by us. Second sister should not easily replace him. The silver earned by this shop every year is enough for second sister's food, clothing and expenses."
"Well, I understand." Jiang Muzheng responded seriously, "Although I don't have the ability to keep my child, I have learned to read the account book this year and figured out the tricks of the Rouge Shop. I will not hand over the dowry."
Jiang Mujin, who lives in the innermost place, sat up halfway up and said, "If the Liao family dares to let you get angry, come back and tell your second uncle and let your second uncle deal with him!"
Jiang Muzheng, who was sleeping on the outermost side, smiled, "Well, I understand."
"If it is inconvenient for my father to take action, let me or my second brother go, and I will ensure that I won't scare them to death." Jiang Liu added.
"Okay." Jiang Muzheng suddenly felt enlightened and felt at ease. It was her misfortune to be born in the Jiang family without entrusting her to be born in the Jiang family. If Liao Chuanrui really dared to be sorry to her, she would have separated from him like her aunt and live alone in her own family.
In the second half of the night, Jiang Mujin and Jiang Liu fell asleep first. Jiang Muzheng and his third sister were chatting deeper and deeper, and then asked, "San Sister, do you have any plans for your own marriage?"
Jiang Muyan also revealed the truth in her heart, "My father said that I could only discuss marriage at the age of seventeen, and there are more than two years left. Our family is better every day. Maybe now looking at the right family, it will be inappropriate in two years. It's better to wait."
Jiang Muzheng hugged Liu Meimei's slim little body sideways and asked in a low voice, "Third sister, tell me the truth. None of the many outstanding young men in Kang'an City can touch you?"
Jiang Muyan asked back, "Have you ever been moved by someone before my second sister got engaged to my second brother-in-law?"
Jiang Muzheng whispered, "No, but you and me are in different situations..."
"I understand what my second sister means, but I'm not much better. My mother died early, and my grandfather's family... Although my father and mother treat me well,..." Jiang Muyan said halfway and felt sad, "Fortunately I have stayed with me."
Jiang Muzheng stretched out his hand and fell on the third sister and patted it. Over the years, it was indeed not easy for the third sister to come over. Liu'er was naughty before he was six years old and did not get close to the third sister at all. The third sister survived the period when the second aunt got sick until she passed away, but the sixth sister was pushed into the water by Sanlang and she recovered for two years. Although the sixth sister suffered a lot from falling into the water, her personality improved and she became close to the third sister and the others.
This is a blessing in disguise.
After pausing for a while, Jiang Muzheng said softly again, "Although Liu Juntang is a few years older than you, he is actually quite good."
