Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 42

Mrs. Wang put on a yellow brocade cloak, and stepped out of the small waterside pavilion in the west courtyard.

Mother Li carefully supported Wang Shi, "What's wrong with Auntie?"

Mrs. Wang sighed, "Have all the materials for winter clothes been delivered to the yard?"

"Yes, it has been sent."

Mrs. Wang sneered, "She is very cautious, and she can't catch any mistakes."

Mother Li glanced at the coldness on her face, and asked, "Auntie has a way to deal with Missy?"

"As long as we can get out of the matter of Pinxiangxuan, if we get into a big trouble... that's enough for her to drink a pot."

To be on the safe side, it would be best to cover up the matter of Pinxiangxuan, but now it's better to gamble on it.

The batch of Anshenxiang from Pinxiangxuan was imported from Anxi, and the account books at the time of purchase had been burned to nothing.

It's just that the account books in the shop are still in the residence of my elder brother, Wang Shaoqing, who is now Taichang Temple. I have already explained to him that I want to clear up the relationship, so there must be no problem.

Mother Li was startled when she thought of the account book, "Auntie, have you cleaned up the account book? What if..."

If the eldest lady is not brought down, but what they did is involved instead, the loss outweighs the gain!
Mrs. Wang glanced at Li's mother coldly, "Are you afraid of being troubled by me?"

Mother Li quickly lowered her head and said: "How could it be! This old slave is thinking about my aunt's well-being."

After entering the house, Mrs. Wang turned to Mama Li and said, "Go and invite Aunt Yun from Tingfeng Building for me."

Mother Li responded and went out, but she was relieved in her heart. It seems that Aunt Wang doesn't have to do this by herself this time, and Aunt Yun is very easy to handle.

Tingfeng Tower is on the other side of Langyue Lake, a little remote.

Aunt Yun was sitting on the couch with Jiang Jinyin doing needlework.

Jiang Jinyin learned embroidery very well.

As a concubine, if she is not good at embroidery, she will be looked down upon if she marries into an ordinary family.

Aunt Yun was born as a maid, and she taught Jiang Jinyin all the good embroidery work.

"Auntie, is my tiger embroidered well?"

Aunt Yun smiled and said: "Miss San's embroidery is getting better and better, the young master looks very good with this bellyband."

Jiang Jinyin said angrily: "Auntie, there is no outsider now, so don't call me like that."

Aunt Yun is very cautious, "Auntie has already let Miss San down because of her birth, and she can't go beyond the rules."

The needle in Jiang Jinyan's hand tilted and stuck on her finger, and she put down the needle and thread with a groan.

Aunt Yun quickly got up and took her hand, "Miss San!"

Jiang Jinyin hurriedly said: "It's okay, don't worry, Auntie, it doesn't hurt."

Just as Aunt Yun was about to call out to the maid outside, she heard outsiders coming from the yard.

"Aunt Yun, this old slave is from Yicui Pavilion, our aunt invites you to sit down."

Aunt Yun and Jiang Jinyin both had a meal.

Jiang Jinyin whispered: "Auntie, what is she asking you to do?"

Aunt Yun shook her head, "Anyway, Auntie doesn't have anything worth worrying about here, Miss San quickly called her maid to bandage her hands, and Auntie will come back as soon as she goes."

Jiang Jinyin watched Aunt Yun leave the inner room, staring at the blood on her hands in a daze.

Auntie only wanted to live a stable life in the mansion, and hoped that she would have a good marriage in the future, but many things were not useful just to avoid them blindly.

She thought of Jiang Jinyan today, her elder sister.

The eldest sister seems to have changed a lot.

But can she really beat this Wang family?
Is it worth fighting for yourself?
Jiang Jinyin sighed, let's wait and see.

In this deep house compound, who can not use 12 points of caution.

In the Yicui Pavilion, Mrs. Wang, who was sitting on the Luohan couch, put down the lotus-patterned celadon teacup on her mobile phone, and looked at Aunt Yun who was sitting on the bed.

Aunt Yun's complexion is much better now, presumably life is going well.

"Aunt Yun has made a great fortune now. I heard that...she often goes to Wutong Garden to see the young master?"

Aunt Yun's body trembled, "I think a little person like the young master is really pleasing to the eye. If you have nothing to do, just make some clothes and give them away."

Mrs. Wang snorted coldly, "Young master is the only son in the house now, you look at me, Wang Yuniang, but can't you see what's on your mind?"

Aunt Yun lowered her head, "I don't dare to have any thoughts, I only think about the third lady, I can't compare to you, there are the young master and the second lady."

When Wang heard the eldest young master, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, "It's good that you know, they all belong to the same backyard, who doesn't know who, but I advise Aunt Yun, the eldest lady is just a boudoir lady now. No matter how big she is, she can't be Miss San's master."

Aunt Yun suddenly raised her head, "Aunt Wang, what do you mean?"

Seeing Aunt Yun's face, Mrs. Wang felt displeased.

Aunt Yun was originally just a maid serving tea and water in the Hou's mansion, she had a charming face, when she first opened her face, Lord Hou spent six out of ten days resting in the Tingfeng Tower.

"A while ago, the master asked me to find a good family for Miss San in the future. I thought I should also invite Aunt Yun to come over and discuss. What kind of family should I find for Miss San?"

Aunt Yun hurriedly got up, "Miss San is still young! We can't talk about marriage! Aunt Wang still... it's better to show Miss Er first!"

Mrs. Wang didn't raise her head, she just caressed the mutton jade bracelet on her wrist, "Miss San is already eleven, she's not too young, and she's fourteen after finishing the rules. Very fast."

No three media and six scorpions?That is for a concubine!

Aunt Yun bit her lip and knelt down, her eyes were red and she said: "I never argue with you, Miss San doesn't have any other thoughts, I just beg you to let our mother and daughter go!"

Mrs. Wang stood up slowly, and threw a piece of spice into the smoker on the small mahogany table beside her, and the room was immediately fragrant.

Mrs. Wang snorted. A while ago, Aunt Yun wanted to go to Jiang Jinyan's place to be a good girl, but now she has figured it out.

"Get up, let people see you, and think that a mere concubine of mine is forcing you to do something big and evil."

Aunt Yun gritted her teeth and refused to get up.

Wang turned around and said bluntly: "As long as you do something for me, I will have nothing to do with Tingfeng Lou from now on, and I will not get involved in Miss San's affairs."

Coming out of Yicui Pavilion, Aunt Yun turned pale and walked quickly, her heart still echoing Wang's words.

"As long as you use this incense, you can get sick. Let the master believe that it is Jiang Jinyan's handwriting. Now that the master has just become an official, it is a big taboo to have a restless backyard."

Aunt Yun shook the incense in her hand, and was a little dazed for a moment.

Jiang Jinyin froze when she knew about it, so the Wang family is so vicious?
They have no status at all, if they do this, they will probably have a grudge with Wutongyuan, the eldest lady is the eldest daughter of the mansion after all.

But the Wang family is so easy to get along with!
It's not about being kicked away when it's useless.

After thinking for a long time, Jiang Jinyin said, "Auntie, you listen to me on this matter."

Aunt Yun hurriedly persuaded: "Miss San! Don't mess around! Then the Wang family really has the ability to influence your marriage. Auntie has endured for so many years just to see you get married! It is good even if you are from a poor family, but You must not follow Auntie's old path!"

Jiang Jinyin's eyes turned red, and she said, "Auntie, Jinyin knows all about it, but if Auntie did such a thing for Jinyin, I'm afraid we can't clean it up anymore, so what is the way out for us? Besides, Auntie is serious. Do you think Eldest Miss can't beat her Aunt Wang? Why don't you go for it!"

Early the next morning, Jiang Jinyan brought the prepared little cloth tiger into Xiao Jincheng's room, unexpectedly Jiang Jinyin was already coaxing Xiao Jincheng inside.

Jiang Jinyan was neither too close nor distant to this interesting concubine, and smiled lightly.

"Third sister came early."

Jiang Jinyin hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Young lady, you are welcome. When I came, Daddy had already come to see Brother Cheng. I didn't come earlier than Daddy."

Jiang Jinyan pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Father is going to go to the government office early to do errands, we can't compare."

Jiang Jinyan saw the cloth tiger in Xiao Jincheng's hand, and said with a smile, "Third sister is one step ahead of me."

Jiang Jinyin saw that she was holding an exquisite little cloth tiger in her hand. It was embroidered extremely brilliantly, and it was also adorned with a fine bead. It was so vivid and lifelike.

She shook her head quickly and said, "Sister's embroidery is much better than mine."

Jiang Jinyan knew that Aunt Yun was born as a maid, and she had personally checked the clothes that were sent to Jincheng during this period, and they were all made with first-class care.

"Third sister was taught by Aunt Yun that female workers can't be wrong. Don't stand still, third sister sit down."

Jiang Jinyan picked up Xiao Jincheng, who was already holding a cloth tiger in his left hand, and when he saw the cloth tiger in Jiang Jinyan's hand, he babbled and reached out to grab it.

Jiang Jinyan smiled and shook his head, "It can be seen that he is greedy."

Xiqiu hurriedly said: "Our young master has good eyesight, the two young ladies are both good, how could one be missing."

Jiang Jinyin also laughed.

She seemed to say unintentionally: "If it's a lot colder today, Brother Cheng, you should be careful not to catch a cold. It was windy last night. Aunt Wang invited my aunt to Yicui Pavilion. Who knew that my aunt would catch a cold when she came back. Oh, I also mentioned those little maids, they don’t even wear a cloak for my aunt on such a cold day.”

Hearing that Mrs. Wang had invited Aunt Yun to Yicui Pavilion, Jiang Jinyan raised her head and glanced at Jiang Jinyin. Seeing her staring at him, she paused in her heart. Did she have something to say?

"Xiqiu, go out for a walk with Brother Cheng in your arms, and be careful not to blow the wind."

Xiqiu took Xiao Jincheng from her arms, and responded with a smile.

There were only two of them left in the room, and Jiang Jinyan also sat down and poured a cup of tea for her, "This is this year's Junshan Yinzhen, Sanmei has a taste."

Jiang Jinyin took a sip of tea, secretly thinking that it was indeed good tea.

"Sister, everything here is really good."

Jiang Jinyan smiled faintly, "I thought about the young age of the third sister, and I sent some Tongxi Huoqing there a while ago. If the third sister thinks that the Junshan Yinzhen suits my taste, I will ask the little girl to go to my room and get some back when I leave."

Jiang Jinyin quickly thanked her.

"Elder sister..."

Seeing the beautiful and gentle face of the eldest sister, she hesitated again at this time, is this really the right way?
Seeing her preoccupation, Jiang Jinyan sighed secretly, got up and walked to the window, turned around and said with a smile: "Third sister, come over and have a look, isn't the sycamore leaves all over the ground very interesting?"

Jiang Jinyin was stunned for a moment, then got up and came to the window. Outside the window, a sycamore avenue was covered with sycamore leaves. Under the sycamore tree, the big maid beside the eldest sister, Xueyan, was chasing a snow-white cat.

Jiang Jinyan pointed to a path on one side, "Third sister can see it? There used to be a bluestone road there, and there were thin ditches on both sides, but now so many layers of sycamore leaves are paved on it, instead If you can’t see it, you will step into the ditch if you are not careful.”

Jiang Jinyin looked at the thick layer of sycamore leaves in the yard outside the window, thinking.

"Walk on the road, but you don't know when you will step into a ditch and get your shoes and socks wet. Then, third sister, tell me, is this road still a road?"

Jiang Jinyin understood what she meant, and her eyes became firm.

"Sister, Aunt Wang wants to use my aunt to deal with you!"
