The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 129 Promise Shu'er to Saburo
When the carriage entered Chaozhou, Li Ling ordered Liang Jin and Zhou Jin to take the horses to the post to rest, while he and Jing Shu followed Jiang Youchen to Jiangfu.

The Jiang family received a letter from Jiang Youchen last night. Early in the morning, the whole family was waiting for Jing Shu and the new son-in-law outside the gate of the house.

Before the carriage and horses reached the gate of Jiangfu, Jing Shu saw her grandfather's family from a distance, she stopped the coachman, got out of the carriage by herself, and ran towards her relatives impatiently.

Jiang Youchen looked at the childish Jingshu, smiled and said to Li Ling: "It seems that my cousin is really homesick."

Li Ling replied: "Isn't it? In order to come back, I have suffered a lot during the journey, and I have never heard her complain about the hardship."

Jiang Youchen's mother, that is, Jing Shu's aunt, Tian Shi, saw Jing Shu, and hurriedly greeted her, dragged her niece from head to toe, and from foot to head, and kept looking at her. Before she could speak, The tears couldn't stop streaming down.

Since Tian married into the Jiang family, she has been close to Jing Shu's mother. After her sister-in-law passed away, Jing Shu was raised by Tian herself during the ten years she lived in Chaozhou.Although Tian has three sons, she doesn't have a daughter. From the bottom of her heart, she regards this smart and beautiful niece as her own daughter.

I haven't seen you in five or six years, how can you not want to.

While talking, Jiang Youchen brought Li Ling to the crowd, and Jiang Youchen politely introduced everyone to Li Ling one by one: "This is my father, this is my mother, this is my sister-in-law, this is my second sister-in-law, these children are My nephew and niece."

"Brother is on duty in the camp, we will see you when you come back later."

Li Ling met everyone one by one as a new son-in-law.

Jing Shu's uncle Jiang Zhao saw that his niece and son-in-law were handsome and handsome, and he was very happy. After greetings from everyone, Jiang Zhao enthusiastically led Li Ling and took his son Jiang Youchen to the front hall to talk.

Jing Shu followed her aunt and two sister-in-laws to visit her grandfather and grandmother in the backyard first.

As soon as everyone stepped into the gate of the Second Courtyard, they saw the octogenarian grandmother walking out hastily, leaning on a cane in one hand and supported by the nanny in the other. The most important thing is that Jiaojiao is back, my precious daughter, she misses me so much."

Jiaojiao is the small name of Jingshu's mother.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was confused again, Mrs. Tian hurriedly greeted her: "Mother, why are you not waiting inside the house?"

Before Jing Shu left the Jiang Mansion, her grandmother was only confused occasionally, and she was already so old after only a few years, she wiped her tears and threw herself into her grandmother's arms.

The old man took Jingshu's hand, squinted his eyes and looked carefully and said: "Jiaojiao, why did you come back, I don't know how much mother misses you."

Now that the old man is getting old, he is often confused, and it doesn't make sense to talk to her, Tian just coaxed: "Yes, Jiaojiao is back, this time you can rest assured."

With tears in the old man's cloudy eyes, he said: "Jiaojiao has returned to my side, so I will naturally feel relieved."

Jing Shu and Tian Shi helped the old man back to the house, only then did Jing Shu see her grandfather lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

Mrs. Tian handed over the old lady to the serving nanny, pulled Jingshu and said: "Your grandfather has been ill for a while, and he stayed up all night with a cough. He just took medicine, let him sleep more, and I will bring him back tomorrow." Come and visit."

Coming out of the grandfather's yard, Tian personally took Jing Shu to the Xiazi.

Although the Shen family is not comparable to the gentry in Beijing, they have been generations in Chaozhou, and the Shen family is naturally the most prestigious family in Chaozhou.

Tian walked along with Jing Shu, muttering: "The year before last, your uncle ordered people to repair the various parts of the mansion, and your aunt left the courtyard where you lived, but the original small back garden of yours was restored. Expanded."

After speaking, Tian took Jing Shu to the Xiazi.

Walking to the gate of the courtyard, Jing Shu looked at the plaque hanging on the door, pointed to the three big characters "Jingnvyuan", and said with a smile, "This is the name of the courtyard that Cousin Chen mentioned."

Hearing this, Mrs. Tian looked up at the plaque and said, "Isn't it? You were six years old when you left me and lived in this yard alone, and Saburo was only eight years old at that time. I heard that you have your own yard." , I insist on raising a plaque for you."

Staring at the word, Mrs. Tian couldn't help laughing and said: "Look at the name of this courtyard, what does it look like? A while ago, your uncle and I invited the gentleman from the family school to a banquet. When we passed by this courtyard, the old gentleman looked at it. I read the plaque for a long time, and stroked my beard to think about it for a long time, but I didn’t have the nerve to ask, ‘What does this mean?’”

Such as Qingfengyuan, Anxitang, Bitangju, Lanyaxuan, etc., are like a courtyard name.

"Jingnvyuan" is indeed neither fish nor fowl, but this is only written by an eight-year-old child, which is a bit more childlike.

Jing Shu stood beside her aunt, looked up at the three characters, and said: "At that time, my cousin was reading the "Book of Songs", and when he read 'Jing Nu Qi Shu', he said that this sentence should be my name. , so he named my courtyard like this, and told me that the name of this courtyard has a lot of meaning."

Thinking of the silly things when she was a child, Jing Shu suppressed a smile and said: "I was young at that time, so I believed whatever he said."

Tian Shi also laughed, and she patted Jing Shu's hand and said: "In a flash, you all grew up, hey! Now I really miss the days when you were young and played around with me all day long."

Tian accompanied Jingshu into the house, and ordered the little girls to take a bath for Jingshu.

When Jing Shu was a child, she lived in this house in her grandfather's house. At that time, everything in this house was arranged by her aunt Tian. Although she lost her mother when she was young, her aunt really took care of her. Be thoughtful and meticulous.

After taking a bath, a message came from the front yard, saying that the banquet had been prepared, and Tian Shi was asked to take Jingshu there.

When the two came to the banquet hall, everyone was already there, and even the eldest cousin Jiang You'an who was on duty returned early.

Tian brought Jing Shu into the seat.

After a while, the nanny came tremblingly with the support of Mrs. Jiang.

Tian and the two daughters-in-law hurriedly stood up to greet her, but Tian asked worriedly, "Why did the old lady come out again?"

Mammy replied: "Recently, I have come to understand again. I heard that Aunt Biao is here, and I remembered that it is Miss Biao. I have to come and have a look at everything."

Jing Shu got up and helped her grandmother, and asked with a smile: "Grandma, do you remember me?"

Mrs. Jiang sat down on the soft chair, stroking her granddaughter's face with a pleasant smile: "You are my little granddaughter, how could my grandmother not remember you."

Jiang took care of his mother happy, and he was also happy in his heart. He said to Li Ling: "The old lady is getting old, and now she sometimes understands and sometimes is confused. When she understands, she always likes to talk about Shu'er."

When one gets old, one's mind is indeed not sober. Mrs. Jiang, who was still clear just now, has only half a cup of tea, and she is confused again.

Hearing her son mention "Shu'er", the old lady muttered: "Didn't you say that you want to give Shu'er to Saburo? Is this a wedding wine here?"
