After the general's wife was reborn, everyone knelt down and begged her for mercy.

In the front hall, although Jiang Zongguang was sitting very upright, he was still a little uneasy. After all, Jiang Changgong and his wife were no longer here. I heard that the eldest lady was now in charge of the house, so she didn't know if she would take in poor relatives like them.

The other three people who followed him sat quietly beside him.

"The eldest lady is here." Jiang Cheng's words attracted the attention of all four people.

Jiang Zongguang also stood up hurriedly and bent towards Ning Ruyan who walked in: "I have met the eldest lady."

The rest of the people followed suit and saluted.

"Third uncle, no gift." Ning Ruyan smiled, "Third uncle, please forgive me, I just married into the Jiang family not long ago, and I have never been back to my hometown, so I am not familiar with my relatives in my hometown."

In fact, she was familiar with it. At this time in his previous life, Jiang Zongguang also brought these people to the capital. The man was his nephew Jiang Yaogen, and the slightly older boy was Jiang Yaogen's son Jiang Chengfeng. He came to the capital just for him to participate in the next event. Months of autumn.

The remaining younger boy was an orphan in the village. I never knew his first name, but his nickname was Xiaolang. His parents died of illness when he was five years old. No one was willing to adopt him, so he had to He was able to wander around and often compete with wild dogs for food. He was not afraid of death, so everyone called him little wolf cub, and later they just called him little wolf.

Later, the village chief couldn't stand it anymore, so he gave him a bite of food from time to time to prevent him from starving to death.

The reason why I brought him here was to work as a bookboy for Jiang Chengfeng. After all, hiring a bookboy requires money, but hiring this little wolf doesn't.

Jiang Zongguang hurriedly introduced several people to Ning Ruyan.

Ning Ruyan glanced at Xiaolang and nodded with a smile: "Logically, my relatives should be taken in, but as you know, Third Uncle, the family has had two funerals in a row. This..."

Jiang Zongguang frowned: "Daughter-in-law Bo Nian, don't you welcome us? Is this how you treat guests?"

"Third uncle, look at what you said, did I say I disagree? But some people who take the imperial examination always have some taboos. Isn't this a way to say hello in advance? Besides, I am just a woman, and the masters are the ones who make the decisions in the family. ." Ning Ruyan's face also darkened, "Since you think what I reminded you is wrong, wait until the uncle comes back." After saying that, he stood up and said, "I'll excuse you now." Then he turned and left.

Jiang Zongguang was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly slapped the table: "Bo Nian's wife, what is your attitude?"

Ning Ruyan walked away without looking back. To be honest, if she left late, she would be worried about giving this old guy a slap in the face.

In the previous life, Lian Susu and Jiang Bowen's son was brought into the Jiang family through the hands of this old man, and became her son Jiang Changqing. I remember that the old man looked at her very gratefully and said, "That child's parents" They are all dead, which is really pitiful. If she had adopted them, it would be a great virtue.

Now it seems that the great virtue of going to Te Niang is treated as a joke by them.

Although Su Su's son had not even had time to be born in this life, she could never forget this man's face.

When Jiang Zongguang saw that Ning Ruyan ignored him, he had no choice but to find the housekeeper Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng was just a servant and could not make the decision. He could only send people to find Jiang Bonian and Jiang Bowen at the same time.

Jiang Bowen originally didn't want to see anyone. After all, he was very embarrassed now. Moreover, although there was no obvious wound in that area, it hurt when he moved it, which was worse than being stabbed. But at this time, he had to grit his teeth and get up. Reception. Fortunately, there are many courtyards in Jiang's mansion, so it is no problem to temporarily arrange a place to stay, and he also asked the kitchen to prepare some food and send it over.

Jiang Zongguang finally felt that he had regained his face. He glanced at Jiang Bowen, whose face was pale, and couldn't help but sigh: "Bowen, you are the head of the family after all, how can you let a woman control you? That woman from the Ning family, You have to ask your brother to divorce her."

Jiang Bowen glanced at Jiang Zongguang in surprise: "Third uncle, my sister-in-law is pregnant."

"Really? That's a good thing." Jiang Zongguang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, "Women, you have to have children, otherwise what's the use of having children?" Later he talked a lot about women not being spoiled. He even said "the fallen mother-in-law kneaded the fallen face". In short, she felt that Ning Ruyan was too arrogant and had to let Jiang Bonian come back and clean it up.

"Third uncle, after traveling for so many days, let's rest first. Besides, brother Cheng Feng also wants to warm up his book. If anything happens, we can wait until the elder brother comes back." Jiang Bowen stood up and left directly.

"Third uncle, after Chang Gong passed away, it feels like this family has changed." Jiang Yaogen couldn't help but frown after Jiang Bowen left. If this continues, what good will there be?

"Okay, don't worry about this. These days, take good care of Brother Feng first. Qiu Wei is the most important thing." Jiang Zongguang waved his hand, "When Brother Feng wins the election, it will be equivalent to entering a serious official career."

Jiang Yaogen nodded hurriedly when he heard this: "Uncle, I should have found a little girl to serve Brother Feng. What can Xiaolang do as an orphan?"

"Are you stupid?" Jiang Zongguang slapped his nephew, "What should I do if the little girl seduces Brother Feng? Our Brother Feng wants to marry a woman from a wealthy family."

Jiang Yaogen stopped talking.

"As for Xiaolang..." Jiang Zongguang frowned, "The capital is not as good as the village, and the official career is not as good as farming. If anything happens in the future, he will be a good scapegoat, understand? As for the girl, she is rich. What can’t you buy for something?”

"Third uncle is still smart."

Jiang Zongguang waved his hand: "Okay, let's be careful about our words and actions these days."

In Wutong Courtyard, Xin Yi relayed what she overheard to Ning Ruyan, not forgetting to roll her eyes at Sang Ye. After all, Sang Ye had arranged for her to eavesdrop on the corner.

Sang Ye chuckled: "Xinyi, since you have come to Wutong Courtyard, you have to do as the Romans do. Listening to things like the corner is very fascinating. I believe it won't take long before you will fall in love with this job."

The corner of Xin Yi's mouth twitched, speechless.

Ning Ruyan took a deep breath: "Sang Ye, please arrange for two beautiful girls to serve in the guest house, especially to take good care of the future lord."

Jiang Chengfeng is eighteen years old this year. He is handsome and has a gentle temperament. In fact, he is a hypocrite and a disciple. In his previous life, he won the imperial examination. After passing the joint examination and entering the palace examination next year, he won fourth place, that is, The first place in the second class is called Chuanlu.

Afterwards, he entered the Hanlin Academy and became a "shujishi", which can be said to have a bright future. (End of chapter)
