rich concubine

Chapter 2628 Untitled

The next day, Rong Yi woke up very early. When she got up, Jiang Shunxiao hadn't even gone out yet.

"Why don't you sleep more?" He wiped his face and came over to help her get dressed.

Rong Yi blinked her sleepy eyes and shook her head, saying, "Today is the first day. The elders are all at home. I can't sleep too late."

"What does it matter? You are heavy. Even if you sleep a little longer, others will understand you."

Rong Yi put on her clothes, looked up at him, smiled and said, "Go and wipe your face, otherwise it will get frostbite again."

Ever since the two of them got together, every winter, Rong Yi would use the ointment she used to wipe her face on him. At first, Jiang Shunxiao was not happy, thinking that it was something women use at home, but after being forced to use it a few times, he stopped using it. Complied.

He still said: "The ointment you use to wipe your face smells too good. I, a grown-up man, rub it on my face and go out to make people laugh."

"This time it doesn't have that strong smell. It has a little less essence. By the time you rub it on your face and go out for a walk, the smell will be gone. By the way, when can you come back today? There is a family dinner today."

"There's not much going on today. I'll be back after I finish my morning service."

"Okay, then be careful on the road and don't ride too fast."

As the two of them talked, Jiang Shunxiao went out, and Rong Yi wrapped herself tightly and went to Ronghua Courtyard. When she went, Ruyi had already arrived. She smiled sheepishly and said, "I'm late."

Meng Simin: "It's not too late, breakfast will be ready soon."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had breakfast together today. Thinking that this was the first day for several relatives, and wanted them to have a good sleep, they did not arrange to eat together.

After the food was ready, both Rong Yi and Ruyi had an appetite. They ate better, which made Meng Simin have an appetite and ate a lot.

After dinner, the time was running out, so he went to the larger living room to wait. After a while, the female dependents from each room came. Meng Simin stood up with his two daughters-in-law to greet them, and pulled the eldest lady over. The madam and the fourth madam took their seats, and Rong Yi and Ruyi called for others, while the remaining juniors presented their gifts to the eldest princess.

The rows were full. Rong Yi smiled slightly and saw Ah Ruan at a glance. She was wearing a red outfit today, which was very eye-catching. The braided hairstyle on her head matched the hairpins. She stood aside obediently. , it was her turn after all the brothers and sisters in front had seen the ceremony.

Meng Simin prepared big red envelopes for each of the juniors. In recent years, we rarely get together during festivals. This year, the family is reunited, and the juniors are all around. As an elder, naturally we can only have more red envelopes.

It was lively for a while, and Rong Yi heard the eldest lady and the eldest princess talking, and everyone listened honestly and quietly.

"I said the year before last that I wanted to come to Beijing to see my second brother and sister. However, there has been something going on at home and I have been too busy to leave. Now we are finally reunited."

I heard that the eldest wife was married when the Jiang family was in decline. She was not from a high background and was relatively short in stature. She gave birth to a son and two daughters to the eldest family in the years after she got married. Later, when the Jiang family became prosperous, she gave birth to a child. The children were all grown up, and the uncle at that time also started to take concubines. Xu felt a sense of crisis, and despite his advanced age, he gave birth to a son and a daughter, who were much younger than his brothers and sisters. , this time, the eldest son in the family did not come with him. He stayed at home to take care of the housework. His two married daughters did not come with him, so he only brought his son and daughter who had not yet discussed marriage.

Jiang Shunyin, Jiang Shuyi.
