Dongli drinks wine after dusk

Chapter 115
"You monkey, you just know how to play!" The fourth aunt laughed and cursed, causing Jiang Jiuxin to hide behind her in embarrassment, only showing half of her face and smiling kindly at Jiang Jiuying.

After that, there was a group of brothers who looked somewhat similar. Jiang Jiuying only memorized the ranking and name at random. Whether the faces match up can only be guessed.

Finally, after the pro-recognition meeting was over, Jiang Wenyuan's room was put back to wash up, so he could take a little rest and wait for today's welcome dinner.

If it wasn't for their family being the protagonists, everyone would be suspected of not giving face to the elders, Jiang Jiuying really wanted to get into the bed after washing off the dust, and love each other enough with her own bed.

It's a pity, big family life, no!able!since!Specialize!Everything is based on the requirements of the elders and the interests of the family as the criterion, and is carried out without compromise.

From lying down after washing, to being dug out from the bed by Lonicera to change clothes and make up, Jiang Jiuying thought it was just a matter of closing and opening her eyes in an instant, but the slanting sun told her that it was almost evening.

She continued to doze off, letting the two maids do their jobs, her mind working automatically, and she began to recall all the blood relatives she had seen not long ago.

Grandfather Jiang Chu and grandmother Cui have been married for [-] years and have three sons and a daughter.

Uncle Jiang Wenqin married Cui's niece Xiao Cui. After they got married, they played harmoniously and gave birth to two sons and a daughter. The first cousin Jiang Chengzhe and the fourth cousin Jiang Chengshi.The two brothers have already won the exams, and the eldest cousin will also take the exam next year. As for the fourth cousin, he has not studied enough, so he will take the exam after a few years.

The second uncle Jiang Wenxian, married his wife Duan, the second daughter of the Guozijianji Restaurant, and gave birth to a son and a daughter after marriage. The son is the second cousin Jiang Chengqing, a scholar in the middle of the previous year. People are very kind.

The fourth uncle, Jiang Wenxing, is a concubine, and his biological daughter-in-law, Yang Shi, is Jiang Chu's distant cousin who is in trouble. She used to be favored by Jiang Chu, and even the enlightenment was done by Jiang Chu himself, not by others.

As for the little cousin and aunt who is still alive and kicking, Rao is from the Cui family, she has a high tolerance for concubines, and she doesn't care about a child. After all, because her husband favors concubines, she is a bit offended, so she has a lot of love for this concubine. The bastard is also indifferent, he is decent in terms of rules, but he has never cared about his upbringing.

Poor Mrs. Yang used to be afraid that his wife would murder his concubine, so he kept Jiang Wenxing tight. She was not very knowledgeable, so naturally, Jiang Wenxing was a bit petty, and at the age of [-], he was hit by the tail of the crane. , Jiang Chu got her into the Ministry of Industry by brushing her face, and became a small general in charge of the room, which can be considered as a family and a career.

Jiang Wenxing married his wife, the Mu family, and her natal family was also an eighth-rank official, so they could be regarded as the right family.The two have been married for many years, and they have no children. The only girl in the house gave birth to a concubine daughter, Jiang Jiuxin.Because she has no heirs, the fourth aunt Mu still has some genuine love for this child.

Fifth Uncle Jiang Wensheng is also a concubine, his own daughter died of dystocia when she gave birth to a child, Cui is kind-hearted, and raised this child as his own, he is talented, literary and elegant, but he has an unrestrained temperament, and he has won Ju Ren After that, he refused to take the imperial examination again, and devoted himself to landscapes all day long, which earned him a bit of fame in the literary world, and he could be called a great scholar.

What troubled Cui the most was Uncle Wu, who didn't like to obey the rules. He was almost [-] years old, and children of his age would be soy sauced. He didn't even have a wife.

As long as Mrs. Cui told him about the marriage, he would be able to hide away for ten days and half a month without returning home. Three or five times like this, Mrs. Cui gritted her teeth and cursed a few times, but she didn't force him anymore.

Ask Jiang Jiuying to say that literati are probably somewhat eccentric, isn't it that there is only a fine line between a genius and a lunatic?

Moreover, there is such a lesson from the past in the family. It should be easier for her second elder brother not to take the imperial examination and not to embark on an official career. Jiang Jiuying easily has a good impression of this unknown fifth uncle.

Her aunt, Jiang Sirui, was two years older than Jiang Wenyuan. She married the youngest son of the Mao family, Minister of the Household Department.

In addition, the uncle's family lived in the mansion.

The glory of great-grandfather still shines on their Jiang family, and the separation of the family is equivalent to giving up this part of the benefits. In addition, great-grandfather is a self-disciplined person who has never taken a concubine in his life, only two sons, Jiang Chu and Jiang Ji.

The two brothers made up their minds, anyway, Jiang's house is enough to live in, so what kind of family should we divide up, brothers are of the same heart, and work together to break the gold.

Uncle Dan's family has passed away for many years. Uncle Jiang Wenhao married Rong's family. He has three sons, Jiang Chengxiu, Jiang Chengxin, and Jiang Chengbao. .

Jiang Jiuying really couldn't remember what they all looked like, so he could only secretly pray for a while not to call the wrong person, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

The Jiang family really has a large population. Looking at this small courtyard with only three rooms, Jiang Jiuying felt infinitely melancholy, because the more she got around, the more she went back, and the smaller she lived, even if the land price in the capital was compared with that of Anqing Mansion, it was a The sky and the earth do not prevent her from being extravagant to frugal.

The Jiang family has a lot of land, and it is not easy to ensure that each son and daughter has an independent yard. I also heard that some families with many wives and children do not live in a spacious enough room. There are so many people that they may sleep in Datong bunk. Of course, This is generally the treatment of concubine daughters, and concubine daughters can still have a small courtyard after all.

The Jiang family's old house was rewarded by the government during the time of the great-grandfather, otherwise, even if the family's sons and officials had high salaries, they would not be able to afford it.

The east of the capital is rich and the west is noble, while the south is poor and the north is cheap. The west city is generally populated by nobles, while the east city is home to all kinds of middle-level officials and top gentry landlords. This house near the root of the imperial city is not expensive for an acre of [-] taels.

When Jiang Jiuying first heard about the astonishing house price, she couldn't help thinking about the Jiang family's old house covering an area of ​​ten acres.

How rich!This corrupt and privileged class lives, my sister loves it!
Living in the capital is not easy, the ancients never deceived me!
There were five tables fully prepared for the dinner, the elders were separated from the younger ones, men and women, and the seats were full.

Jiang Jiuying complained secretly, why do ancient people like big families?Don't know how many people are right and wrong?Don't understand what is far fragrance and near smell?When the teeth still touch the lips, how can there be no contradictions in living together, fighting like black-eyed chickens every day, and looking at each other is disgusting.

Even so, you have to smile when facing each other, be gentle and amiable, what is it if it is not self-abuse?After a long time, will you really not be fine?
Fortunately, I heard from Ning that the atmosphere in the Jiang family's old house is good. The whole family has been subdued by Cui's rectification. It's also quite quiet.
