Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 12 The Guest
Jiang Changning drooped his eyelids to hide the sarcasm in his eyes.

Except for her eyes, she is exactly like her mother, and everything else is like her father.

The old lady Zhuang was very much like her mother, not the slightest like Jiang's family.

From the appearance of the two, it is impossible to tell that they are the relationship between aunt and grandniece.

To say they are similar is to lie with open eyes.

"You're tired after going out, go back to the yard and rest." Mrs. Zhuang said.

Jiang Changning bent his knees and left with the maid.

On the way, I met Liao who came with his daughter Zhuang Nianjun.

Meeting them head-on, he nodded with a smile as a gift.

When passing by, Liao called out: "Sister Ning."

"Sister-in-law." Jiang Changning stopped and looked at her.

"The eldest grandson of Mrs. Huang San is visiting her," Liao said.

Jiang Changning was stunned, what does this mean?
Could it be that Mrs. Huang San has taken a fancy to her?
"Sister Ning, be careful." Liao exhorted, and continued on her way.

"Girl." Shu Fei called out worriedly.

"Don't worry, the old lady won't agree." Jiang Changning calmed down immediately.

The old lady Huang San did have Jiang Changning's idea, but Jiang Changning is the queen mother's savior, and old lady Zhuang can no longer decide her marriage.

If the old lady Huangsan dares to resort to tricks, don't blame her for taking the bottom line.

"Girl, is grandma showing love to you?" Shu Fei asked in a low voice.

Jiang Changning sighed softly, "She is also a poor person."

Her husband is dead, but her husband's family and her mother's family do not allow her to remarry, leaving her young and young, so she can only watch her daughter and suffer.

The next day, Shu Fei took the safety rope and went out of the mansion to Zhou's house.

After returning, he told Jiang Changning, "Brother Zhou invited Miracle Physician Du, and Miracle Physician Du prescribed a prescription for Mother Zhou."

Jiang Changning was overjoyed, "I knew that a genius doctor could cure the nanny."

Those three golden tickets are really worth it.

In a blink of an eye, it was March 27.

Jiang Changning took Fangju, Fu Cui and four girls from the Zhuang family to the Zhuang family's West Mansion.

Zhuangjia Xifu is called Xifu because it is to the west of Zhuangjia.

The old lady in Xifu died of illness eight years ago.

The old man did not remarry, and there were two old concubines who served by his side.

Now the eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Jie, is in charge of the family, that is, Zhuang Juyue's mother, Mrs. Wang.

Zhuang Juyue is the fourth in the family, with a concubine elder sister and two concubine cousins ​​in front of her.

For this birthday party, she not only invited Jiang Changning and the four girls from the Zhuang family, but also invited three daughters of her uncle and five daughters of her aunt.

In addition to the girls, they also invited the young masters of the dealer, two sons of her uncle, and a son of her aunt.

Zhuang Juyue's two older brothers were in charge of entertaining these teenagers.

"Sister Yue, happy birthday." Jiang Changning handed the brocade box to Zhuang Juyue.

"Thank you Sister Ning, Sister Ning is so polite." Zhuang Juyue accepted the brocade box and handed it to the maid.

Others also presented presents, and Zhuang Juyue invited the girls into the small hall.

Including Zhuang Juyue's two concubine sisters, two concubine cousins ​​and one concubine cousin, there are as many as 18 people in total.

They are all unmarried women, the oldest is 12 years old, and the youngest is [-] years old.

The grandma from Xifu came over to greet the girls and left.

Now she is very busy with her mother-in-law's housekeeper, and the circles of married and unmarried are different, and the topics of conversation are also different.

On the big table in the hall, there are all kinds of dried fruits, snacks, candied fruit, and fruits.

I've gotten along with the dealer girls in school, and I'm fairly familiar with them.

Those cousins ​​of Zhuang Juyue only have a few acquaintances.

The girls greeted each other politely, and after taking their seats, they chatted in general, from the snacks on the table to the embroidered handkerchiefs in their hands.

Zhuang Juyue's younger sister, Zhuang Jushui, "Have you heard? Zhao Xifang drew a picture of "Ladies" and dedicated it to the Empress Dowager, who was praised by the Empress Dowager."

Zhao Xifang, a well-known talented woman in Beijing.

The granddaughter of Princess Wenhe, Princess Wenhe stood on the right team during the imperial power struggle, and successfully became a celebrity in front of the Queen Mother from the marginal royal family.

"I heard that Song Yirou and the others are going to hold a tea tasting party." Zhuang Juyue's aunt Kong Huihui said.

Qian Li, Zhuang Juyue's uncle and cousin, sneered and said, "Zhao Xifang held a flower viewing party, and she held a tea tasting party. They really are tit for tat."

Song Yirou, the niece of the great general Hushi, the cousin of the imperial concubine Song in the palace, is also a beautiful and talented girl.

"As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and they are destined to be enemies." Kong Huihui laughed.

"To say that they are enemies is better to say that they are just like this year's snow white and yellow flowers, which are evenly divided." Zhuang Shushui laughed.

This line of her poem aroused everyone's addiction, and the topic turned to poetry.

Among them, there is no shortage of showing off.

After Jiang Changning echoed a few words, he carefully peeled the peanuts and ate them.

However, some people can't see her being so carefree, "Sister Ning, have you entered the palace to meet the empress dowager? Is it fun in the palace?"

The person who asked the question was Zhuang Juxiang, a concubine of Zhuang Juyue, who had always been good friends with Zhuang Qingmei.

Jiang Changning said with a faint smile: "There are many nobles in the palace."

The implication is, who dares to walk around when a person without rank enters the palace?

Colliding with a nobleman is a fatal matter.

Unwilling to be dismissed like this, Zhuang Juxiang asked, "What did you say to the Empress Dowager?"

Jiang Changning's eyes shone slightly, and his face sank, "This is not what you should know."

"Juxiang." Zhuang Juyue also glared at her, something out of order.

At this time, the maidservant came and asked all the girls to move to the garden for dinner.

In March, the flowers are like a scene, and eating in the garden while admiring the flowers looks elegant and unique.

The spring is bright and beautiful, and the garden is colorful and fragrant.

The girls talked and laughed, walked out from the corridor, and went to the garden.

Yingying Yanyan, Niao Tingting.

This pleasing scene fell into the eyes of several people standing on the rockery not far away.

In addition to Zhuang Juyue's two elder brothers, Zhuang Gongzhao and Zhuang Gongxi, there are also a group of young masters from the East Mansion, young masters from the Kong family and the Qian family, and four others.

The other four people were King Jin and his two attendants, as well as King Jin's aunt and cousin Gu Zhongyu.

They huddled around King Jin, and King Jin would come to the dealer as a guest, apparently because he was teased by his Yu Zhongyu.

In fact, he learned that the girl of the Zhuang family will hold a birthday banquet, and people from the same clan will definitely come to attend, so he just pushed the boat to be guests.

Now he got his wish and saw the person he wanted to see, and he was worthy of being a corporal.

The brothers of the Zhuang family were both surprised and happy that King Jin could come to the house as a guest.

They spent a little money to talk to Gu Zhongyu.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhongyu actually invited King Jin here, the money was well spent.

"The scenery in this garden is really nice, let's go down the mountain." Jin Wang said and left.

The Zhuang brothers didn't stop them, and they wouldn't stop them either. They wanted to introduce King Jin into the garden.

The younger sisters are all pretty, if they can catch the eyes of King Jin.

Those born in the first line can be the second concubine, and those born in the concubine can be the side concubine.
