Dongli drinks wine after dusk

Chapter 118
Mao Qian took care of them enthusiastically, so that the newcomer Jiang Jiuying did not feel too restrained, and soon got along with a group of girls of similar status and age, chatting and laughing, and it was very lively.

Adults have their own places to go, and they will also secretly consider their favorite candidates for their daughter-in-law, but for girls, banquets are mostly for socializing, no matter whether it is a playmate in the boudoir or a circle after marriage, no one can be alone .

In Anqing before, Jiang Jiuying didn't like to go out. On the one hand, the circle of officials and women in Anqing was too small, and there were only a few people to make friends with. The rest were just entertainment in a literal sense, which was extremely boring.

On the other hand, she knew the family's plan. They would return to Beijing sooner or later. The people in Anqing Mansion only needed to get along well without worrying too much.

There were so many people at that time, the Jiang family was naturally unavoidable.

The capital is the place where they will live for a long time in the future. Sometimes the wife's diplomacy is also very important, and the Ning family must integrate. Even with Jiang Jiuying as her only daughter, she can't embarrass her mother, but she has to come out to socialize.

Everyone held each other up and respected each other in a friendly manner. The atmosphere was not bad. Jiang Jiuying had enough brains to deal with it with ease. Some popular small games are not to be underestimated. Let some caring people around the table The girl secretly remembered it in her heart.

The rules are good, the education is good, the father and grandfather still have a future, and it is not a big problem to look a little plain. After all, marrying a wife and a good man, taking concubines and beauties, as long as the wife is convenient is enough.

If she knew that she was 14 years old and had just returned to Beijing, she would be missed by those who cared about her. Jiang Jiuying wondered if she would regret that she tried to be perfect, and didn't want others to underestimate the Jiang family.

On the contrary, it was Jiang Jiuchen, almost no one liked her.

The second uncle was serving as the county magistrate of Zhengbapin, and it was still in the remote northwest region.Originally, with the connections of the Jiang family, the descendants of the direct descendants would not be exiled to a place where the birds don't shit, but it was the second uncle who insisted on going.

Even the reasons are ready-made. Only in this kind of place where the economy is backward and the people are uneducated can it be easy to make political achievements. Real political achievements will be his capital in the future.

However, the idea was perfect, and only after I went there did I realize that none of the previous county magistrates was a vegetarian, but the local conditions were harsh, with poor mountains, bad waters, ugly women and troublesome people.

When the first term of office was about to expire, the crops in the fields were about to harvest in autumn. Unfortunately, there was a plague of locusts, no crops were harvested, and the people were displaced.

The second term of office is coming to an end, and since spring, there has not been a single drop of rain, and the land has been barren for thousands of miles. If the second uncle hadn't reported to the court in time and applied for food relief, it is hard to know how many people would starve to death and barely keep his official position.

the third time……

the fourth time……

Every time, when the term of office is about to come, when the Ministry of Officials needs to be evaluated, there will always be something wrong, and the second aunt herself will cry and say that the place is in conflict with her master.

In short, after [-] or [-] years, the second uncle is still a county magistrate, but this time Jiang's family has made great efforts to transfer him from the northwest to Shandong. It's his turn to be promoted.

His father is not good enough, and he has only reached the seventh rank after so many years, so Jiang Jiuchen's marriage is a bit difficult to find.

Most of the people who looked at her were low-ranking and low-ranking officials. The Jiang family was reluctant, and those who were high-ranking and wealthy could get in the way, and most of them didn't want to consider this second wife who was too good-looking but not very well-known.

Especially at this juncture, Sanfang has returned to Beijing again. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that the most promising members of the Jiang family will have to be the eldest and the third, and the second will be weaker.

Jiang Jiuchen and Jiang Jiuying were about the same age, so naturally more eyes fell on Jiang Jiuying.

So even Jiang Jiuying, who lacks some experience in interpersonal battles, has slowly tasted it over time. Why are you all staring at me and asking about the [-]th generation of your ancestors?These girls smile like flowers one by one, what kind of idea are they playing behind their backs, hum!
This girl is not interested in getting married, she is still a baby, and my second sister is like a fairy, whoever you marry will make money when you marry back, don't hurry up.

It's a pity that even Jiang Jiuying knows that in the family of eunuchs, those with money and power can't find any kind of beauty.

But he has no status and status, and he has no beauty. He is just a thin Yangzhou horse.

Compared with Jiang Jiuying's entanglement, Jiang Jiuchen is very calm about it, everyone in the world is like this, especially for women.While actively running around at home and participating in banquets of various names, she was not at all curious about who she would marry in the future.

But the family won't make her feel too wronged. She can continue to live a life of stretching out her clothes and opening her mouth when she eats. As long as your husband is not a bastard who eats, drinks, prostitutes and gambles, she can still win over with just her face. not come?

After the fun, the banquet is really like a formality. Jiang Jiuying can be considered to have seen how the banquet in the capital is ostentatious. The soup is cold, the plate is inedible, the dim sum does not exceed one bite, and most of them The girl basically said she was full without moving a few chopsticks, and she felt so lonely after eating.

Followed Ning back to the mansion, the second sister went back to the second room, Jiang Jiuying followed Ning.

"Mom, Zhang's mother is about to stay at home and get moldy, so hurry up and get the little kitchen ready." Jiang Jiuying, who was still a little hungry, pouted her mouth aggrievedly. It was past the time for Fuchu to feed, so The money goes to the big kitchen to order food, and grandma will know about it. It is more convenient to have your own small kitchen.

Sanfang’s main courtyard occupies a larger area than Jiang Jiuying’s small courtyard. It used to be equipped with a small kitchen. Because Sanfang is away all year round, it has been vacant. Now it is so clean that even mice don’t visit it. There are no basins, and I can't use them if I want to.

"Go find your second elder brother and take you to the street to eat!" Ning asked Mama Du to take two small silver ingots of five taels.

"Oh yeah! Mother is the best!" It's been almost a month since Jiang Jiuying came back, and what Jiang Jiuying sees most every day is the sky in Jiang's old house.

Grandma has strict rules, and the defense of men and women in the capital is not serious at all. The children of noble families hold hands in public, and girls from civil servant families go to the streets, but their family rarely goes out.

However, seeing that the sons and daughters are all grown up, and the grandmother is also loose, the rules can't be wrong, but they don't restrict going out to play, there is only one rule, at any time, the Jiang family's dignity must not be lost.

The only friend Jiang Chengfu didn't know in Beijing was still trapped in Anqing and couldn't return. He was fresh for a while at first, and he went out all day to hang out, but now he mostly stays at home.

When Jiang Jiuying found him, he was playing chess with Uncle Wu in his room.
