Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 72 What is worthy of her in her eyes?

It wasn't until she entered Mrs. Fang's courtyard that Jiang Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief. The scene just now made her almost unable to hold on.

Xiao Jincheng struggled and kicked his legs, opened his mouth and was about to cry, Jiang Jinyan sat leaning on the edge of the mahogany Luohan couch, and stretched out his arms to hug him.

After swaying, Xiao Jincheng giggled.

After entering the room, the nurse saluted and said, "Miss, it's time for the young master to breastfeed, let the servants come and hug her."

Jiang Jinyan smiled and handed Xiao Jincheng over carefully, who knew that Xiao Jincheng let go of his voice and began to cry as soon as he left Jiang Jinyan.

"That's all, I was late for breastfeeding this morning, maybe I'm not hungry yet, I just need to coax him, you all go down first."

Carrying Xiao Jincheng back, she lay on the couch crookedly, stroking his forehead while thinking about what happened just now.

She almost forgot that Zhou Chengrui and Li Qianyun were still cousins, no wonder she saw Zhou Chengrui at Fang's house today.

But his relationship with the Li family is lukewarm, so it must be that Li Rang doesn't want to see him now, right?

The toughest people in the court are the military generals with status, and Li Rang is like this. He holds the post of governor of the left army and has a high position and authority.

So what if there is a younger sister who is a concubine in the palace, it is obvious who is looking forward to whom.

Thinking of Li Rang, Jiang Jinyan thought of Li Rang's son-in-law, who didn't seem to be an ordinary person.

In the previous life, the Li family belonged to him after Li Rang's death. In the end, he stood by Zhou Chengrui's side and used Li Rang's reputation for many years to suppress several people who were about to move.

She shook her head secretly. Compared with these people, she admired Xu Junyan more. He is upright, even in the midst of political schemes, he can behave calmly.

But such people are often the most difficult to see through.

Thinking of Xu Junyan's casual smile just now, she seemed to feel that she had known him for a long time, and she could see a trace of gentleness in his eyes every time.

If I remember correctly, Xu Junyan is extremely indifferent...

In a flash, she thought of that time in Liyuan, when she was guarded by him in the fake cave, she was so close to him...

Her body froze uncomfortably, and the movement of her hands stopped, until Xiao Jincheng twisted her body unhappily, which brought her back to her thoughts.

Is it because I owe him too much, and I have become so guilty?

She smiled helplessly and shook her head. If possible, she should keep herself away from this person. In this life, she only pretended to be hatred...

"Look at Ganlu, Brother Cheng is about to be spoiled by Sister Yan."

While in a daze, she didn't realize that Mrs. Fang had walked into the inner room.

Jiang Jinyan was about to get up quickly, but the old lady held her down and said with a smile: "There is a lot of noise outside, my grandmother came here to hide."

"Jin Yan sees that grandma is happy."

As she spoke, she moved her body.

Seeing that the old lady was about to sit down, Gan Lu spread another layer of fox fur mattress on the couch. This fox fur mattress was as white as snow and made of extraordinary materials.

"This skin is really good. I remember that I still have a lot of snow fox fur in my storeroom, Ganlu. Go and have a look. Pick two good ones. It's getting cold soon. Make them for Sister Yan. A cloak would be nice too."

Gan Lu responded with a smile, "It can be seen that Miss Biao has won the heart of the old lady. The good things of the old lady have not all gone to Miss Biao."

Then he pointed to the white jade hairpin on Jiang Jinyan's head, and said with a smile: "Miss Biao doesn't know yet, does she? This white jade hairpin is the old lady's dowry, and I love it very much."

Jiang Jinyan was surprised that it was so precious, she said angrily, "Grandma, you are going to spoil Jinyan!"

The old lady looked at Ganlu and scolded with a smile: "You little hoof, this mouth makes people love and hate, why don't you go to the warehouse to find some good things."

Ganlu smiled and backed away.

Isn't it true, in the eyes of the old lady, Miss Biao is more important than the eldest lady who is about to enter the palace.

Mrs. Fang stretched out her hand to straighten the white jade hairpin in her bun for Jiang Jinyan. This jade hairpin is warm and moist, and it is an excellent Hetian jade.

She smiled and said: "My sister Yan is so good, I'm afraid this hairpin is not good enough for sister Yan."

Mrs. Fang had a good appearance when she was young, but when she was old, she was more easy-going, and when she smiled, it made people feel like a spring breeze.

Jiang Jinyan feigned anger and said, "Whoever dares to say that grandmother's things are not good, Jinyan will definitely not spare him."

When Xiao Jincheng heard Jiang Jinyan's voice pretending to be harsh, he found it amusing, clapped his hands, and wrinkled his face from laughing.

Mrs. Fang took Xiao Jincheng, but he didn't cry, he just struggled a few times and then lay down obediently.

"The eyebrows and eyes really resemble Sister Yan, and I will definitely be a young master Pianpian in the future."

Seeing that Jiang Jinyan's eyes were only gloomy for a moment, Mrs. Fang seemed to have almost walked out of the shadow of Fang's death, so she felt relieved.

I am getting old, and I have experienced a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, and I have more understanding of life and death.

Although the Fang family is not very stable now, they are twisted into one after all, and what she is most worried about is her grandson and granddaughter in front of her.

Jiang Jinyan smiled lightly, "I also think Cheng Ge'er is good-looking, and he will definitely be promising in the future."

She naturally knew that Jiang Jincheng was indeed a beautiful person in his previous life, but he had a stubborn temper.

She shook her head, that is in the past, this life will not be like this.

While chatting, I saw a mother-in-law announce that the eldest lady is coming, and then Xiangfei's bamboo-patterned flower curtain was raised, and an elegant and graceful woman walked in.

Her hair is combed neatly, and the jasper ribbed flowers on her head are swaying in a pair of elegant and dignified manners, and the dress flicks as she walks, which is extremely pleasing to the eye.

"Meet grandma."

Now Fang Lixian has learned the etiquette in the palace with great care, and her every move is full of nobility.

The satin dress with engraved silk, gold and silver Ruyi cloud patterns on her body complemented the smoke cage Qianshui skirt, and she was completely motionless under the weight of the ring hanging around her waist.

Her appearance is also excellent, but she is too dignified and looks deep.

Jiang Jinyan got up and saluted, "Cousin Lixian."

Fang Lixian nodded lightly.

The old lady frowned, then smiled again in a flash: "Lixian should be learning the piano at this time, why is she free to visit grandma?"

Fang Lixian wore an unchanging smile, and said with a slight smile: "Grandmother is biased. Cousin Jinyan is as good as I used to be. I didn't have time when she came earlier, but now I have to steal a while to see my cousin." Grandmother, don't blame Xian'er for being lazy."

I have a normal friendship with this cousin, if she really put down the matter at hand because of me, then I don't understand.

Jiang Jinyan still had a smile on his face, "My cousin is going to enter the palace now, and there are still many things to prepare, so Jinyan naturally dare not disturb her at will."

The old lady glanced at Fang Lixian, and saw that she was still standing dignifiedly, her smile undiminished.

This granddaughter has a high temper, and Tong Jinyan is even more speechless. What is she trying to do now?
Seeing this, Fang Lixian quickly took Jiang Jinyan's hand, and said with a smile: "I heard that my cousin loves orchids. A few days ago, Empress Dowager Li in the palace rewarded a pot of gold-rimmed ink orchids. Cousin, do you want to go and have a look?"

She turned around and smiled at the old lady: "Grandmother must let me have a good time with my cousin before talking, and I will send her back in a while."

Mrs. Fang's doubts were all doubts, and she still sent someone to send the two of them out of the yard.

Jiang Jinyan was puzzled, and on the surface he was still cooperating with the eldest lady of the Fang family, but he didn't know what she was going to do?
In the interior.The two were silent towards Mo Lan for a long time before Fang Lixian asked, "What do you think of Mo Lan in Phnom Penh?"

This is indeed an extremely precious Phnom Penh ink orchid, which was raised in a flower pot carved from whole jade, with a lot of agate and ruby ​​embedded in it, adding a lot of luxury.

It really is an object in the palace, even a very pure orchid can be so luxurious.

"This Phnom Penh Molan is really good." Jiang Jinyan smiled lightly.

She loves orchids, but she doesn't love this orchid that has changed its charm, like a gentleman who has changed from a flower to a rich flower.

"It was rewarded by Empress Dowager Li. Speaking of which, Empress Dowager Li also has a relationship with our Fang family now. Miss Li, who is betrothed to my second brother, still wants to call her aunt."

Jiang Jinyan was naturally aware of this relationship, she didn't understand what Fang Lixian meant by saying this, could it be that she was really called here to see this precious orchid?
She glanced at Fang Lixian, and saw that she was just playing with the leaves of Molan, which seemed to be inlaid with gold, full of luxury, and green under her round and slender fingers.

"My unmarried second sister-in-law's family background and appearance are very appreciated by my mother. Presumably, the future sister-in-law will also be like this."

She smiled and looked at Jiang Jinyan, "Cousin said, is this the reason? My elder brother is the eldest grandson of the Fang family and the future Marquis of Dingyuan. The Fang family will be handed over to my elder brother."

Jiang Jinyan's smile gradually faded, "What my cousin said is true."

Fang Lixian just wanted to tell herself what kind of grandson-in-law the Fang family would look for?

She frowned, could it be that Fang Lixian suspected that she had such thoughts?
"Jin Yan, elder brother has been close to you since childhood. I remember that he stole the cinnamon nest candy from grandmother's house in order to make you happy, and his mother punished him for copying books. At that time, elder brother was really a child."

Speaking of which, Fang Lixian's smile also faded, "I used to feel that time passed slowly, but I didn't expect that people would always grow up. My elder brother will probably be engaged soon, Jin Yan, what kind of woman do you think... To be worthy of him?"

When Jiang Jinyan heard this and saw her staring at him with burning eyes, his heart became clear.

It turned out that I wanted to warn myself not to play Fang Licheng's idea!
That's right, Fang Lixian is about to enter the palace as a concubine, what she needs is strong support.

How could a person like her be willing to let the position of the next wife of the Fang family fall into her own hands, after all, her family background is a bit lower, her reputation is also bad, and most importantly, it is not a help for her.

However, how could I have such thoughts, Fang Licheng was a gentle brother to me.

Even though he was acquainted with his cousin, I knew in my heart that I had absolutely no other thoughts about him, and that his well-being in this life was the only thing I could do for him.

"Jin Yan wants to come... a person like Big Cousin must be worthy of a lady with a good background and good looks. Jin Yan will definitely come to congratulate Big Cousin on the day of engagement."

After Jiang Jinyan finished speaking with a smile, she stood up and said, "Cousin is very busy now, and she still doesn't forget to invite Jinyan to appreciate the orchids, but Jinyan feels that although the agate and ruby ​​are expensive, they are not very suitable for this Molan." .”

Then he said goodbye and left.

Fang Lixian stared blankly at the pot of gold-rimmed ink orchids and said nothing.

He could naturally hear that Jiang Jinyan's words dispelled his doubts.

It's just... She thinks the jade basin is not good enough for this Molan?

The luxury of rolling gold into earthen jade as a basin is not attractive to the eyes, so in her eyes, what is worthy of it?
Unexpectedly, this cousin still has such a heart, but she is not as mediocre and incompetent as before.

"Miss, just now the young master and his cousin met outside the gate of the courtyard..."

Fang Lixian raised her head and said, "Miss Biao said something?"

The servant girl replied: "Miss Biao only said that Miss invited her to see the orchids, and then left in a hurry."

Fang Lixian let out a long breath of relief.

The carriage of Jing'an Hou's Mansion came out of Fang's Mansion for a while, and Jiang Jinyan inside was still a little helpless when he thought of today's events.

Suddenly the carriage stopped.

Jiang Jinyan pulled back his thoughts and asked Jiang Wei who was outside: "Uncle Jiang, what happened?"
