Chapter 40
Today's spring feast was extremely difficult for Jiang Qingge.
Since the beginning of Dou Shi, many unconvinced ladies came up to challenge, and even the few girls who played better on weekdays deliberately stayed away from her.
And the culprit, Jiang Jinyue, has become an inconspicuous and transparent person since that poem, sitting in the pavilion eating melon seeds and watching the show, even if Jiang Qingge smiled and asked her to continue, she would only say that she was only a little learned. , Acknowledging defeat, willing to be the green leaf of her sister.
As a result, she was targeted even more severely.
On the way back, Jiang Qingge deliberately left Su Ruoshui and sat in the same carriage with Jiang Jinyue. He wanted to question her several times whether the poem was intentional, but finally held back.
This question was totally untenable, if she asked it, she would imperceptibly admit that she wanted to show Jiang Jinyue out, so she had to hold back.
Jiang Jinyue hugged the cushion in the carriage and squinted her eyes, and after a while, she deliberately leaned on Jiang Qingge's shoulder affectionately, with a soft voice.
"Could my sister be angry? In Jinyue's heart, my sister is really talented, gentle and generous. How could those ladies who were invited to the Marquis of Yuanshan today be as beautiful as my sister?"
Jiang Qingge smiled stiffly, and said slowly.
"My sister won the prize. It doesn't matter if you and my sister play around in private. In the future, don't be too ostentatious in front of people."
Today, Jiang Qingge couldn't resist showing off his skills and suffered a lot from being ostentatious. I'm afraid that those big girlfriends who have won over will spend a lot of effort to please them in the future, right?
"Yes, Baptist will remember next time."
Jiang Jinyue sang with Jiang Qing's voice today to the full house, which proved her talent again, and Jiang Qingge made enemies everywhere. He got out of the carriage and walked back by himself.
Back in the courtyard, Jiang Jinyue changed clothes and went to the old lady's courtyard, the old lady was taking Bai Ziang Bai Zili to pick out small things in the cage.
"Well, girl Yue is back?"
Seeing Jiang Jinyue entering the door with a smile on her face, the old lady immediately asked her with a smile.
"Look at your little self-satisfaction that can't be concealed. Did you suffer for Su Ruoshui today or did you trip Jiang Qingge?"
"Grandmother, look at what you said, you made me look like a little disaster. Today I praised my talented sister. Every time she wins the prize in poetry competition, today's flattery is not at all. Sorry."
Jiang Jinyue sat on the chair, and leaned towards the old lady like a dog.
"Grandmother, you don't know that when my sister got off the bus at the gate, her face turned red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple."
The old lady was dumbfounded by Jiang Jinyue's description, and she shook her head laughingly as she pointed at Jiang Jinyue's forehead.
"Where did this come from?"
Jiang Jinyue took the green dates handed over by Mama Wang on the table, and took a big bite very rudely.
The old lady took a small delicate box from it and handed it to Jiang Jinyue.
"The gift of thanks quietly sent by the Marquis of Yuanshan is mixed in the boxes and cages that the Song and Qing Dynasties give away every year."
Among other things, Mrs. Hou is definitely a cautious person, and she deliberately chose to send it to the old lady's yard before she and Jiang Qingge came back. No one could guess what was inside.
"What is it?"
Jiang Jinyue put down the dates and took the box.
"I've seen it in advance. They are all things that can be bought in ordinary jewelry stores outside. This thing is still in compliance with the rules, so I will accept it for you."
Sure enough, the things in the box were very ordinary and vulgar, and they were all golden jewelry.
For Jiang Jinyue, gold and silver are both good things. She looked through them happily, and finally found a simple magnolia hairpin at the bottom.
The style is very simple, the difference is that the magnolia stamen is ice blue moonstone, and different shapes can be seen from every angle.
"That's Madam Hou's real thank you gift."
The old lady took a palm-sized abacus from the cage and handed it to Bai Ziang, she paused and said slowly.
"It's a heart."
The sincerity of the gold and silver jewelry alone is not enough, but the gift is too special and easy to be seen. Madam Hou can only choose the most expensive one at the bottom of the box, which is neither eye-catching nor obvious. The ceremony is light.
Bai Ziang took the small abacus and was overjoyed, and Bai Zili took the mouthful of candies from candied haws.
The old lady asked Xue's mother to take the two children to play in the garden, leaving Jiang Jinyue behind and asked her in a low voice.
"How is the young master's condition?"
"As long as you don't get slapped twice by the Eight Kings, you should be fine."
The Eight Kings' hands were really ruthless, Yuan Shanhou couldn't say anything to the Eight Kings in the open.
"Although Yuan Shanhou is a member of the Twelve Kings, Mrs. Hou probably had other plans earlier, but now you stand on the same line with the Twelve Kings, saved the little Lord Hou, and conquered Mrs. Hou's heart. benefit."
Jiang Jinyue nodded, by accident, she stood on Li Zongyu's front, and only when Li Zongyu stood firm in this year can she be relied on, so the starting point of everything now is to help Li Zongyu without hurting herself .
Although she didn't intend to help with this matter, she still has to go to Li Zongyu to blackmail the price afterwards. After all, she can't help for nothing, can she?
The old lady didn't know that Jiang Jinyue's marriage contract with Li Zongyu was tricky, and almost all the plans and schemes were now paving the way for Jiang Jinyue's life after marrying Li Zongyu.
After a pause, Jiang Jinyue suddenly asked the old lady while biting a date.
"Grandmother, tell me, what if I don't marry Li Zongyu in the future?"
She was just asking casually, and her marriage contract with Li Zongyu was only one year. Within a year, she took over the Marquis Mansion justifiably, and let Jiang Youcai return the title, and then divorced Li Zongyu.
She had no idea what to do with her future life.
The old lady paused holding the takraw ball, and turned her head to look over.
Jiang Jinyue quickly explained. "I'm just talking casually, if my side suddenly regrets the engagement and quits the engagement"
"From the day you received the royal dowry, you are already a member of the royal family. Unless you are killed or seriously ill, you can take the initiative to withdraw the engagement. If the twelve kings take the initiative to withdraw the engagement, then you will only be able to enter the nunnery in this life." .”
Jiang Jinyue's heart skipped a beat, and she continued to ask.
"Then what if I leave the capital?"
"Where can you go?"
The old lady was obviously smiling when she spoke, but her eyes couldn't help but chill Jiang Jinyue's neck.
"What? You and the Twelve Kings..."
"No, no, Li Zongyu is very kind to me, besides, isn't the child still here? I just had a whim and asked casually."
Jiang Jinyue lost the date stone and just wanted to scold her.
Bastard Li Zongyu, why didn't he say this when he promised to repay his kindness?How can this marriage be called off after one year?Is it really necessary to use the old tricks of the rivers and lakes to pretend to be sick and pretend to be dead?
Then what's the point of winning the Hou Mansion but not being able to live happily?
She used to think that she had picked up a huge bargain, but now Jiang Jinyue only felt that the more she thought about it, the worse she would lose.
