Chapter 25
Chapter 25
On the second day, the sky was bright and there was a rain last night. The yard was wet and wet, the leaves of flowers and trees were still dripping with water, and the air was filled with a lot of moisture.
The sleepless Duke Xie Heng got up early. After washing, he put on a tight black suit to practice martial arts on the open space in the yard. His movements were strong, his figure was strong, his steps were steady, and his body was full of killing air.
After Ding Guo Gong finished his martial arts and vented his full energy, the whole person was refreshed and the sky was bright.
Mrs. Xie Lao Xie from Rong Xi Tang sent someone to invite Ding Guogong to have breakfast in the past. The three people should have breakfast together, but Xie Jingyi had to kneel down for three days after being punished by a staff. past.
Rong Xi Tang
Mrs. Xie and Ding Guo Gong had a long conversation after breakfast.
“Aheng, I thought about a night last night, and decided to go to the palace first and ask you and Limbao girl to marry and go to Qingshui Temple to choose a day.” Mrs. Xie took a bowl of tea soup from Huang Ma’s hand and laughed. Started.
Ding Guo Gong Xie Heng listened to the mother mentioning the little girl, but couldn’t help thinking of her insomnia last night. The brain was full of the girl’s voice and smile, and the cold and handsome face flashed a little uncomfortably: “Mother decides just fine.”
The smile on Mrs. Xie’s face deepened.
The more she thought about it last night, the more appropriate it was to set people first.
Who knows if one step slower will make a difference.
Ning Bao girl’s marriage is in the hands of Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Chang Ningbo.
According to Mrs. Xie’s understanding of these two people, if someone with a good family background comes to the house to raise relatives, I am afraid that they should come down.
Around the time, a large group of carriages escorting Mrs. Xie left the Dingguo government and hurried towards the palace.
It can be seen how old Mrs. Xie is anxious.
After Mrs. Xie left the house, Deng Guoxie Xie Heng habitually prepared to go to the western suburbs camp, but at the thought of what his mother said, she took a step and turned back to the yard.
After the first gift of marriage, the father-in-law will also have a wife in the future. The rest time should be adjusted, and you cannot stay in the barracks all day long.
In order to cultivate more affection with Miss Jiang Si, you can give birth to a heir as soon as possible and inherit the title of the Grand Duchy, so that the title will not fall into the hands of outsiders.
The housekeeper Zhao was worried about his father-in-law while walking.
Changningbo
Jiang Ningbao, who was remembered, had a good night’s sleep last night. When I felt it, the whole figure was bright and beautiful, and even more beautiful. After washing, she bundled her hair with a hair band and moved to the window in her coat. Opening the window, there was a trace of surprise in the eyes.
It rained last night. The leaves of the osmanthus tree in the outer yard and water droplets dripped. The morning wind blows in, bringing a trace of moisture.
The cold brought cold.
“Girl, windy in the morning, watch out for the cold, the slave waits for the window to be closed.” Chun Xi walked into the house with the food box, and at a glance saw the girl standing by the window blowing a cool breeze. Then, after putting the exquisite breakfast meal on the table, he took out a purse embroidered with a plum and gave it to the girl.
“Girl, the slave-maid met the five-girl’s confidant-maid-girl on the way back. She gave the slave-maid a purse and said that it was given to you by the five-girl.”
Jiang Ningbao moved to the table and sat down, took a look at the purse, and found a letterhead in it, and took it out for a look. It was the handwriting of the five younger sisters, Jiang Mingyao, who was beautiful.
After reading it, Jiang Ningbao put away the letterhead, and a trace of intricacy flashed across his face, which turned into a long sigh.
Jiang Mingyao is still a good girl with three views, but her heart is biased. The old lady Zhang is her mother-in-law. The mother-in-law is suddenly sickened by the Buddhist scriptures written by Ding Guo Gong.
After a night, Jiang Mingyao figured out that fish and bear’s paws can’t have both. The contradiction between the big room and the second room can’t be resolved in one sentence. Moreover, the Zhangs also strongly agreed to withdraw their relatives.
Inner guilt prevailed.
Jiang Mingyao decided to make nods with Jiang Ningbao as Jiang Ningbao said, better than strangers.
In fact, Jiang Mingyao is just a 16-year-old girl who was raised by Zhang’s a little simple, but his temperament is good. Jiang Ningbao’s expectations for Jiang Mingyao are too high to feel disappointed.
Moreover, she certainly did not know that her mother-in-law was calculating the dowry of her fourth sister.
“It’s okay to nod.”
“Girl, are you okay?” After closing the window, Chun Xi looked back and saw the girl saying nothing for a long time.
Jiang Ningbao smiled and said, “It’s okay, just a little emotional.” After that, she began to eat breakfast. This morning’s breakfast includes bird’s nest chicken porridge, and crackers, stuffed buns and fried dumplings, simple and delicate. , Appetizing.
After breakfast, Jiang Ningbao changed to a goose-yellow dress and went to Shou Jintang to please Mrs. Jiang, then went to the main court to see the elder lady Zhang’s off.
It rained last night, and the air was filled with moisture, fresh and pleasant.
I went to Shoujintang with Chunxi. Mrs. Jiang, who had just used breakfast, heard the wife telling her that the four girls were coming, and the smile on her face froze stiffly. After a while, she said, “Let her come in.”
As soon as Jiang Ningbao came in, she blessed Mrs. Jiang: “Give your grandmother peace.”
Mrs. Jiang pursed her eyelids and asked in a faint tone: “Six girl, come and sit, how come today?”
Jiang Ningbao sat under the head of Mrs. Jiang, the side of the red apricot was served with tea, the pink lips were pursed, and the tea cup was held tightly, his eyes flashed slightly, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes, hesitating, Bite your lips.
“Grandmother and granddaughter had a terrible nightmare last night.”
Mrs. Jiang frowned and said unpleasantly: “What a fuss, a nightmare, who has never had a nightmare.” These four girls came to her early in the morning just to tell her that they had a nightmare. Mrs. Jiang’s face was full of Unswerving.
Now she saw the four girls and she was heartbroken.
Mrs. Jiang’s situation was clear to Mrs. Jiang, and she still has a lingering fear. She didn’t sleep well last night, more than once. Fortunately, fortunately, she rushed to read the Buddhist scriptures, otherwise… otherwise she was the one who fell now.
Mrs. Jiang lived to this age and was most devoted to her life.
I don’t like the four girls, but I hate Zhang’s more.
Fortunately, Zhang’s self-reliance.
Jiang Ningbao looked up at the maidservant-in-law in Shou Jintang, and her beautiful eyes showed a trace of anxiety: “Grandma, this nightmare is different, and it also involves the uncle.”
As soon as Mrs. Jiang heard about her eldest son, she glanced at her granddaughter with suspicion, and finally succumbed to her servants, leaving Hongxing with a confidante. She stared at Jiang Ningbao with death: “Four girls, said Well, tell your grandmother how the nightmare you are doing is different?”
“Grandmother, I dreamed… I dreamed that Uncle was entangled in a big snake…”
Mrs. Jiang’s eyes narrowed: “What about later?”
“Later… Later, the uncle was too tightly wrapped by this big snake, and he fainted. It didn’t wake up for a long time, and then that big snake suddenly became the appearance of Master Zhang Zhan, and the granddaughter was frightened later.”
Jiang Ningbao clutched the tea cup tightly, and the more she said, the more fearful, her face was pale and pale.
Chang Ningbo and Jiang Dongming suddenly fell into a coma, just a plot from the book, which happened half a month after’Jiang Ningbao’ was taken home by the Dingguo government, and it was only a few days away.
Jiang Ningbao made a plan, preemptively, and pitted Zhang Zhan first, so as to avoid being used as a raft by Zhang’s as described in the book, designed a big play, and pitted her elder brother Jiang Jin.
Blocked his road to the imperial examination.
Before the township test, Zhang was most distracted. Zhang knew that his brother was clever. He was most likely to be admitted to the judging person at one time. He made a lot of things to trouble his brother and made him unable to concentrate on reading. The “Jiang Ningbao” in the book was regarded by Zhang as more than once. Hit the raft of big brother Jiang Jin.
What Jiang Ningbao needs to do is to take preventive measures.
Zhang Zhan had an impure motive. A person who had ulterior motives and wanted to plan her dowry, Jiang Ningbao had no psychological burden.
If he didn’t show up in front of her, Jiang Ningbao would only be without this person.
It’s different now.
Zhang Zhan has clearly moved his mind.
Thinking of Zhang Zhan’s look in her eyes, it was obvious that she was already his possessions, Jiang Ningbao felt a bit of help.
Mrs. Jiang is most superstitious about these mysterious things. Maybe Mrs. Jiang does not believe it now. When Chang Ningbo suddenly comatoses inexplicably, and no reason can be found, Mrs. Jiang will naturally think of her dream.
“Okay, just a dream, go back.”
Mrs. Jiang really doubted the letter and placed the teacup in his hand heavily on the coffee table. His face was extremely ugly. Anyone who heard that his eldest son was entangled in a coma by a serpent could not be blamed.
“Granddaughter quits.”
Jiang Ningbao got up and blessed Mrs. Jiang before she left, saying more: “Grandmother and granddaughter also hope this is just a nightmare that will not happen.”
After talking, she left Shou Jintang.
Mrs. Jiang’s eyes suddenly fell after Jiang Ningbao left, and she asked in surprise: “Hongxing, what do you mean by the dream of the four girls, wait, wait for you to send someone to find out, the nephew of Zhang’s family what?”
Zhang Zhan’s arrival, Mrs. Jiang knew the first time, and also knew that the four girls had only seen the nephew of Zhang’s mother’s family yesterday evening.
Now Si Ya suddenly had such a nightmare.
Mrs. Jiang couldn’t help being suspicious.
Hongxing quickly went out to find someone to inquire about Zhang Zhan’s son, but after a tea time, he got the information of Zhang Zhan’s son.
“Old lady, son Zhang Zhan is a snake.”
Mrs. Jiang’s heart shook, her hand holding the tea cup suddenly tightened.
The four girls only saw Zhang Zhan yesterday. They haven’t seen it before. I definitely don’t know that Zhang Zhan is a snake. This dream is by no means auspicious.
“Old lady, son Zhang Zhan will stay in the house for some time. Do you want to send someone to send him back to Zhang’s house?” Hong Xing asked the most carefully.
“Find someone to stare at him first.”
Mrs. Jiang was lucky. Perhaps the nightmare of the four girls was just a nightmare.
Coming out of Shou Jintang, Jiang Ningbao showed a bright smile, and Zhang Zhan, who was walking not far away, was in the eyes. His eyes were full of surprises. One must be flashing in his eyes. As long as she married Miss Jiang Si, she won both. Such a good thing, Zhang Zhan did not know once to thank his aunt in his heart.
He was about to walk past, but was blocked by a pretty little girl in a pink dress. The little girl was a girl in a big house, and was loved by Chang Ningbo. When she saw Zhang Zhan’s first glance, she secretly promised .
The path was a little wet, and she didn’t know that Jiang Ningbao, who was almost blocked, walked to the front courtyard with the corner of her skirt.
“Girl, you seem to be very happy?” Chun Xi asked strangely.
“Yeah, I am happy when I think that Mrs. Xie may enter the palace today to get married.” Jiang Ningbao smiled, and did not say that he was digging a hole to count Zhang Zhan.
“Speaking of Mrs. Xie, I miss Ding Guo Gong a little bit. I don’t know if he can be in the house today, but I promised to send him a few bottles of medicated liquor. If he is in the house, I decided to deliver it personally, which is more sincere. ”
Jiang Ningbao walked along the sidewalk.
Chun Xi followed behind dumbfounded: “…”
Girl, your restraint.
“By the right, Chunxi, you left the house today and said to Yao treasurer, tell him to collect more herbs, and I plan to brew more medicinal wine.” Jiang Ningbao seemed to think of something, and suddenly commanded.
“Okay, girl.” Chun Xi responded quickly.
There were people coming and going from the main courtyard, and Grandma Yang was busy directing her to put a box of luggage on the carriage. When she saw Jiang Ningbao coming, her face sank instantly.
“Four girls, my wife is unwell, please go back.”
Jiang Ningbao was not annoyed at all. After caring for a few words from the elder lady Zhang, she stood with Chunxi aside and did not leave. In fact, she came here just to show her attitude and show it to outsiders.
Of course, Grandma Yang couldn’t say a word and left on the spot, so it was easy to drop the handle.
Grandma Yang couldn’t help but glared at her, and she was shocked in secret. The four girls were really difficult to hang around. No wonder Baimei’s so clumsy maid didn’t even do a little thing.
She really looked away before.
About a quarter of an hour, the eldest lady Zhang was lifted out in a small sedan chair. Jiang Ningbao looked away and was shocked. Unexpectedly, just one night, Zhang, who was frustrated by the body, became a personal impression, and the thick fat powder was also covered up. Her haggardness, her eyes blind, her eye sockets deep, and there was a dark shadow hidden by fat powder under her eyes, the whole person was depressed, leaning weakly on the sedan chair, as if she was ten years old overnight.
Jiang Ningbao: “…”
This powerful power seems a bit powerful.
No wonder Zhang is going to stay in the temple temporarily, only the senior monks in the temple can expel the coldness of the shame, otherwise Zhang will be weak and bedridden in three days.
Of course, it is also possible that the old lady Zhang’s body is not good, and it will be so serious after being eroded by shame.
Jiang Ningbao leaned toward the latter.
As time goes by, more and more people come to the main court.
Chang Ningbo, Jiang Dongming, Jiang Zhuo, Jiang Yue, Zhang Zhan who temporarily stayed in Bo Mansion, as well as the aunts of the big house and their children, came to see the eldest wife Zhang’s family off.
Jiang Mingyao also came, surrounded by a group of servants, his face was cold, and only when he looked at Zhang’s, his eyes appeared a little worried.
Jiang Ningbao and Jiang Mingyao looked at each other and moved away.
Grandma Yang saw this scene, and she was relieved in her heart. It seemed that the five girls really listened to her words, so there is no need to worry about the five girls being counted by the four girls.
Madam should be relieved.
When the carriage came, it was already the end of the day, and the eldest lady Zhang’s inadvertently found out that there was a slim figure in the line, and at the moment of seeing Jiang Ningbao, the eldest lady Zhang’s eyes broke, and the hatred was rolling. Come up.
It’s a pity that Zhang’s can’t do anything at this time, but can only stare at Jiang Ningbao coldly.
Jiang Ningbao’s mouth twitched, and she waved toward the elder lady Zhang in a happy mood.
Auntie looks like she hates her very much.
Seeing the niece waving at her, Zhang’s blood was almost anger, and his chest kept rising and falling, as if he would faint in the next moment, terrified the maidservant next to them, they quickly helped his wife into the carriage and set it up, quickly fell down A bowl of calming tea soup is given to the lady.
When the old lady’s carriage left, Jiang Ningbao saluted the uncle, nodded toward Jiang Mingyao, and turned back to his yard with Chunxi’s footsteps. Who would have met the lobby brothers Jiang Zhuo and Zhang Zhan on the road.
“Four sisters, what a coincidence, are you rushing back to the yard?” Jiang Zhuo, the elder brother in the lobby, asked with a smile, and walked over with his cousin Zhang Zhan, blocking her way.
“Miss Jiang Si, I have met again.” Zhang Zhan looked tall, tall, smiling, with a gentle personality, and exuded a scholarly spirit.
It is quite easy to make the little girl secretly concealed by this good appearance.
This is the case with the girls from the big room.
But he is not the type that Jiang Ningbao likes. Even men like Xie Jingyi, who has good looks and temperament, don’t care, she retired, let alone such a weak scholar.
Especially this frail scholar is a well-dressed beast.
Jiang Ningbao’s eyebrows flickered slightly, and a glimmer of light under her eyes. Her hand unconsciously stroked the red whip around her waist, and suddenly felt itchy and eager to move.
Chun Xi stared nervously at the side, her eyes full of alertness.
“Brother Hall, Master Zhang, why are you here?” Jiang Ningbao smiled slightly and asked for some reason. This road has been leading to her yard. There are very few people passing by. The two people are blocked here, obviously because of her .
“We specialize in these four sisters.” Jiang Zhuo is a good-looking man, but his qualifications are mediocre, and he has failed many times in the Imperial Examination. Fortunately, he is the eldest son of the eldest son and will inherit the title of Changning Bo in the future.
Speaking of this, Jiang Ningbao rarely sees this lobby brother.
“Brother in the lobby has something to look for the little girl?” Jiang Ningbao Ming eyes kindly asked softly.
“Cough, it’s not really a big deal. Four sisters, what do you think of Cousin Zhan? He was born in Dongping Uncle Mansion and will inherit Dongping Uncle Mansion in the future. Not only that, Cousin Zhan, like his third brother, has already passed the exam at a young age. The talents are distinguished, and the people are good-looking. They will also take part in the rural examinations this year.
Jiang Zhuo spared no effort to compliment Zhang Zhan, but he could not help it.
Although it is also a ruined Bofu, Changning Bo is much better than Dongping Bofu. His five sisters have already talked to Xie’s Erfang. The eldest sister is married to Houfu. Although she is not the wife of Shizi, her husband and his son are relatives. Brothers, two sisters, two sisters and two sisters, married to the rich merchant’s house, it can be said that their big house is up.
Dongping Bo Mansion is just a Zhang Zhan, it is difficult to say whether it can support the huge Bo Mansion in the future.
If the mother had been secretly subsidizing her maiden family, Dongpingbofu might have lost even the last decent.
In front of Zhang Zhan, Jiang Zhuo had a sense of superiority.
“Miss Jiang Si, I saw you from the first glance, and I was pleased with you. I wonder if you would like to marry me as a wife?” Zhang Zhan’s voice was clear, and a pair of slender eyes showed a trace of tenderness, giving a deep affection Each section looks at your feelings.
Chun Xi dumbfounded.
This son, Zhang Zhan, is pleased?
Jiang Ningbao smiled as the lobby brother was touting Zhang Zhan, and then listened to Zhang Zhan’s direct expression of his feelings. The fair and beautiful face was calm, and there was no intention to move at all.
“Sorry, Master Zhang, we are not suitable. I like the big heroes like Ding Guo Gong, not the weak and weak scholars.”
“Since ancient times, beautiful women have matched heroes, and beautiful people like me, if they marry a big hero, will surely achieve a long story.”
Jiang Ningbao lifted her hair, smiled softly, and said with longing.
Chunxi: “…”
You have no power, girl, are you sure that you are not poking Zhang Zongzi’s heart? I can’t sustain Zhang Gongzi’s smile.
Chunxi madly vomited in her heart.
Jiang Zhuo shook his hand. He had never thought that the soft and weak four sisters would be like this… It was so indescribable. He glanced at his cousin Zhan and couldn’t help but feel a little gloating.
Weak scholars, without the power of a chicken…
“Miss Jiang Si, I have learned martial arts since I was a kid. Even if I have met a few big men, I still have the power to fight back.” Zhang Zhan said with a smile, his tone hidden with pride.
Jiang Ningbao’s eyes circulated, and suddenly he swiped the red whip from his waist, and flicked it a few times at random. He smiled at Zhang Zhan, his voice melodious and beautiful, and he was full of joy.
“It turns out that Master Zhang has learned martial arts, can we learn?”
The soft and weak beauty suddenly flicked a red whip out. This sudden change scared Jiang Zhuo and Zhang Zhan. They looked at the smiling woman in front of them, and somehow raised a strange feeling in their hearts.
Zhang Zhan had indeed learned martial arts, and now a soft and weak beauty said that he would learn from him, his eyes flashed, his eyes swept over Jiang Ningbao’s fullness and the waist that he grasped, and he couldn’t help but dry his mouth and heart. Fiery.
Learn from each other… It is really an unbelievable beauty for the beauty to ask for discussion.
“Yes, I will be merciful.” Zhang Zhanbin politely smiled.
The prey is hooked.
The smile on Jiang Ningbao’s face grew sweeter.
Jiang Zhuo was stunned. He looked at Cousin Zhan’s eyes and looked at a beast. What kind of person is Cousin Zhan? He still didn’t know.
This guy is a beast of clothing.
On the surface, he cleaned himself, in fact, the slightly beautiful maidservant climbed over his bed.
Chun Xi glanced at Master Zhang quite sympathetically. The girl was already very cruel when she was a child. Now that she is even more brutal, Zhang Gongzi is really brave.
“Mr. Zhang, be careful.” Jiang Ningbao reminded with a smile, the voice just fell, but the whip in his hand was thrown away with a thunderbolt, quickly rolled up Zhang Zhan’s leg, and Zhang Zhan was dumped as hard as possible. Fly out.
A crackling sound.
Zhang Zhan screamed, and the whole person fell straight on the ground, soaked with mud.
“Mr. Zhang, are you okay? Sorry, I… I was just a little nervous, and my shot seemed too heavy…” Jiang Ningbao panicked and put away the red whip, and ran to Zhang Zhan in a small step, tears in his eyes.
Chunxi: “…”
Startled Jiang Zhuo quickly stepped forward to support his cousin Zhan.
Zhang Zhan now has a headache all over his body. He didn’t expect that Miss Jiang Si looked weak and could not help but the strength was so great, but when she saw that the beauty was sobbing and worried, she gritted her teeth and smiled: “Miss Jiang Si, don’t you Going to my heart, I… just fell off, it doesn’t bother me.”
In my heart, he was puzzled. This Miss Jiang Si seemed to be different from what her aunt said.
“Four sisters, I will first help Cousin Zhan go back to see the doctor.” Jiang Zhuo was afraid that Cousin Zhan would break his body and rushed to take him back to the doctor.
Jiang Ningbao looked at them anxiously, her white and soft face was full of guilt, she wiped her eyes in a panic, and nodded again and again: “Yes, yes, the lobby brother said yes, Chunxi, you go and call a little servant help.”
Chunxi hurried to call someone, and in a few moments, two little men came in a hurry. They hurriedly took Zhang Zhan away. Before leaving, Zhang Zhan still endured the pain and squeezed out a smile, be sure to give Miss Jiang Si left a good impression.
“Miss Jiang Si, this is an accident, I don’t blame you.”
Jiang Ningbao nodded with tears in her eyes, and when their backs disappeared, Jiang Ningbao immediately stopped her tears, thinking of Zhang Zhan’s embarrassment, and couldn’t help laughing.
“Girl, you’re so powerful. You’re teasing Mr. Zhang like this. Mr. Zhang doesn’t blame you.” Chun Xi said admiringly.
Jiang Ningbao chuckled and looked at the direction of the main courtyard with a cold tone: “Thinking of my things, you must be prepared to pay the price.”
After she finished, she walked slowly towards the yard. When she was almost at the door of the yard, a young little rushed over and said breathlessly.
“Four girls, there is a man in the palace. Please come and take orders.”
…
The incense case was placed at the entrance of Changning Bo Mansion.
Emperor Qian Yuan’s personal eunuch Zhao Gonggong personally brought the imperial edict of Ming Huang to Changning Bo Mansion. He was also followed by a group of internal attendants and guards.
A group of Jiang family kneeled on the ground.
Mrs. Jiang apparently didn’t expect that the Holy Ghost would really give Siya and Dingguo Gong a marriage. For a time, she was mixed with surprise and the mood was complicated.
Xuan purpose Zhao Gonggong glanced at the beautiful woman who was kneeling to the front, her eyes full of smiles, Miss Jiang Si really was as delicate and beautiful as the rumors, excellent temperament, worthy of Ding Guo Gong.
“… I heard that Miss Jiang Si in Changningbo’s house has a perfect appearance, and she has a good quality, and I am very pleased. When Ding Guo Gong Xie Heng Shi married and married, it was the time when Miss Jiang Si was waiting for her wife and Ding Guo Gong. The good couple is Tiancheng, the good fortune is fixed, and I will refer you to Dingguo Gong, and choose Jiji to finish the marriage.
After reading the wedding decree, Grandpa Zhao stepped forward and gave the wedding decree to Miss Jiang Si. He suddenly laughed and teased.
“Congratulations to Miss Jiang Si for his wish!”
The father-in-law Zhao apparently heard about the rumors of flying everywhere in the capital.
Jiang Ningbao froze for a moment, and then smiled: “Thank you Grandfather.” She was secretly rejoicing in her heart, and she could finally come home to find Duke Guo to cultivate feelings.
