Chapter 121 Weird

Nanny Chen looked at Mrs. Jiang, slightly surprised, and said awkwardly: "Didn't your old lady tell you, my wife is your aunt."

Jiang's expression remained unchanged, and she smiled and said: "Mother only said that I was here to receive the guests, but she didn't say who it was. It turned out to be my aunt, but I was rude. Go to my room with me to talk, mother."

Chen Momo didn't move, and said with some embarrassment: "I don't know if the old servant can go to visit the old lady first. Before coming, my wife asked me to give a letter to the old lady."

Mrs. Jiang was also in a dilemma when she heard the words, she couldn't make decisions for her mother-in-law, so she made an excuse, "Mother is not feeling well today, and she is resting in the house at the moment, why don't you go to my place first, and I will go there later Help you ask."

"Then I will trouble Grandma." Nanny Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed again.

"Grandma, this is a birthday gift list from my wife to the old lady, please accept it first." Nanny Chen took out another list and handed it to Mrs. Jiang.

Mrs. Jiang took it over, glanced at it slightly, and then let out a little surprise in her heart, this gift is not thin, just gave away two ten-year-old wild ginseng, as well as high-quality bird's nest, and other nourishing things. There are also a lot of medicinal materials, and there are a lot of clothes materials, all of which are high-quality silk, which are all good materials from the state capital. There are also two pieces of red fox fur, which are also extremely rare.

Mrs. Jiang didn't expect this aunt to be so generous. She only knew that this aunt married a wealthy family in the state capital. Now it seems that this is not a small fortune.

Jiang was surprised in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face, she put away the gift list with a smile, and led this mother Chen to her room for tea.

Li Meier was also very interested in the birthday gift from the aunt, but unfortunately her mother read it quickly, she didn't read all of it, so her mother put away the list, but she saw all the ginseng and bird's nest.

She wanted to report a letter to her grandmother, so she didn't go back to the room with Mrs. Jiang, and ran to Mrs. Li again.

Seeing her running back again, Mrs. Li snorted, and said bluntly: "I see you are quite busy, I don't know how many times you have run back and forth."

Seeing that Li Meier was sweating from running, Mrs. Lin quickly wiped her face with a handkerchief, and brought a bowl of mung bean soup, "Sister, please sit down and cool off for a while, it's hot right now, be careful of the heat."

Li Meier poured down the mung bean soup in one gulp, breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in an exaggerated tone: "Grandma, you don't know, that aunt sent a lot of good things, there are two of Guanglao ginseng, both It’s ten years old, and it’s much better than the one you kept in your old collection.”

Mrs. Li, who has always been greedy for money, is uncharacteristically today, and said in a disdainful tone: "Girl with shallow eyelids, you are so rare with two old ginsengs. I really haven't seen anything good."

Li Meier curled her lips and muttered softly, "The grandma you are talking about seems to have seen something good."

Mrs. Li stared, and was about to get angry again, Li Meier quickly said: "Grandmother, I heard from the nanny who brought the things that my aunt wrote a letter for you."

Mrs. Li frowned when she heard the words, and said in a bad tone: "What is she writing to me for? She hasn't moved around for so many years. Now she suddenly comes to show her courtesy. It must be nothing good."

"Grandmother, what's the matter between us and my aunt's house, please tell me." Li Meier was very curious about this matter and couldn't help asking.

"Young girl, don't worry about these nosy things. You are not very old, why do you like to inquire so much?" Mrs. Li impatiently taught her a lesson.

Li Meier snorted silently, thinking that it would be fine if she didn't tell her, at worst, she would go to Nanny Lin to ask, judging by Nanny Lin's appearance, she must know the inside story.

Li Mei'er came here to report the news to Mrs. Li, and Mrs. Jiang had invited Nanny Chen to sit and rest in her yard, and then she also came to Mrs. Li's side.

With Li Meier's advance notice, Mrs. Li already knew Jiang's intention of coming, and said directly: "I am not happy to see that woman, you can ask her to hand over the letter directly to you."

Mrs. Jiang didn't say much, and went directly, taking Li Mei'er away by the way.

"Mrs. Chen, my wife is really unwell today. I'm afraid she won't be able to see guests. If you don't hand over the letter to me, I promise to hand it over to my mother in its entirety." Mrs. Jiang apologized slightly when she turned around. Said to Nanny Chen.

Nanny Chen was a little embarrassed, but she couldn't do anything about the old lady's absence, but thinking about her wife's orders before she came, she could only bite the bullet and continue: "Grandma, if you don't like this, you can take the letter to the old lady." Look, madam, my wife has an important request in the letter, I have to wait for the old lady's reply before I can go back and explain to my wife."

Jiang thought that her mother-in-law didn't want to see people, but it should be okay after reading the letter, so she nodded her head in agreement.

Mrs. Jiang took the letter and went to see Mrs. Li again. Mrs. Li didn't know a few big characters, so she couldn't read the letter, so she asked her daughter-in-law to read it to her.

As soon as the letter was read, all the people present were shocked.

It is said in the letter that this aunt has a sixteen-year-old young daughter who has been carefully raised in her boudoir, but unexpectedly contracted a disease at the beginning of the year, and saw many doctors but was not cured. The doctor said that the disease needs to be recuperated, and the aunt wanted her daughter to come to her natal uncle to recuperate.

"I knew it would be a bad thing if she suddenly sent someone over. She hasn't moved around for many years. She climbed the high branch of the state capital by herself. She didn't pay attention to her mother's family. At this moment, something happened to my daughter. Hey, it's just that I'm thinking of my mother's house again." After hearing the letter, Mrs. Li was so angry that she slapped the table with one hand.

"Mother, I don't think this matter is that simple." Mrs. Jiang didn't get dizzy like Mrs. Li, so she thought more.

"Talk about it." Mrs. Li scolded her, calmed down a little, and wanted to hear Jiang's opinion.

"My aunt is married to a wealthy family in the state capital. There must be more good doctors in the state capital than in our town. Since my cousin is sick, it is not easy to walk around anymore. It is good to rest at home. Why do you have to travel a long distance to come here?" In our town, my aunt is not afraid that my cousin will get worse after traveling and traveling? Isn't that strange?" Mrs. Jiang analyzed with Mrs. Li carefully.

Mrs. Li thought about it for the same reason, snorted, and said: "Who knows what her idea is, didn't she say in the letter that she will come to celebrate my birthday in two days, and she will also bring her daughter over by the way. When the person arrives, everything will be clear."

Jiang thought about it, so she said, "Then I'll clean up the room in advance so that I can entertain my aunt and cousin."
