My Cousin is So Weak.

Chapter 7 Jiang Shi is willing to show sympathy to his family members

As soon as Aunt Yang finished speaking, Jiang Shiyuan understood.

It is not easy to make a living in the Jiang family's back house.

The grandmother is mean and ungrateful, and the second aunt is unkind. In the past, when the mother was here, she could still restrain a little, but now that the two of them are in power, forget about being kind. I am afraid that even the basic expenses are not enough.

Not to mention anything else, just seeing that Aunt Yang and her third sister Jiang Shishu were dressed in the same style as in previous years, Jiang Shiyuan knew what they were looking for, and he smiled calmly and said.

"I was careless. I haven't been feeling well these past few days since I came back. I was afraid that I would get over the illness and I didn't talk to you. I really have to go out today. It's my grandpa's house. It's a family dinner. It wouldn’t be a big deal if the third sister goes along.”

Her sincere tone made Aunt Yang's eyes immediately moisten.

"Thank you for your consideration, big girl."

Speaking of which, even if she was rejected today, she couldn't find anything wrong with the eldest girl.

But Jiang Shiyuan's humble look now reminded Aunt Yang of the time when the eldest lady was still there. At that time, they had never been deducted from their food and clothing expenses, nor had they ever been in such an embarrassing situation because they had to go out.

Aunt Yang was not a sweet-tongued person, and she could not say any compliments for a while. Instead, Jiang Shiyuan smiled warmly at the slightly uneasy Jiang Shishu, and then asked Luluo to bring a plate of jade. It's all cake, let the two of you try it.

"I'm not in good health, so I don't like to eat cakes or anything on weekdays, but this Yudu cake is different. It's soft and glutinous, and quite delicious. Third sister, try it. I remember you love sweets. Yes, this thing will definitely suit your taste."

"Sister, do you remember that I like sweets?"

"I was six years old when I left home. It's time to remember. I still remember that when my mother was here, you often came to her room to play with me. Sisterhood is rare. Now that I'm back, then There should be no separation between us. In the future, if you have nothing to do, you can come over and sit there. "

Jiang Shishu was a little surprised. She originally thought that she was just an inconspicuous concubine in the house, and she was not worthy of being approached by others, so all she wanted to do was hide in the house and pass the time with embroidery. However, she did not expect that this was what she saw in front of her. The eldest sister, who is like a fairy under the moon, still remembers these past events.

For a while, my heart was in turmoil.

Finally, with tears in her eyes, she picked up a piece of Yudu cake and took a small bite. Sure enough, it was soft and glutinous with a bit of sweetness, which was her favorite taste. Then she raised her head and smiled at Jiang Shiyuan. Zhang's face lost a lot of nervousness and became more moved.

While he was eating, he saw Jiang Huaishan come in. After changing his clothes, he became more elegant and elegant. As soon as he came in, everyone stood up and saluted.

"Meet daddy."

"I've met my lord."

"Are you all ready? Let's set off now so as not to keep my mother-in-law and the others waiting."

Jiang Shiyuan glanced at his third sister, Jiang Shishu, and couldn't help but chuckle when he saw her patting a bit of cake remnants from the corner of her mouth and nodding.

"My daughter is ready and can leave immediately."

Seeing this, Jiang Huaishan said a few simple words and took the two sisters out of the yard.

Aunt Yang stood there, watching with a little reluctance in her eyes, until the three people disappeared, then she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, turned and left.

As soon as the groom raised his whip, the car drove away from Luoying Lane where Jiang's family was located. When we left, the sun had set a little, and the afterglow filled the sky, illuminating the entire Kyoto as if it were coated with a faint golden light. After seeing them leaving, the doorman sneaked into the second lady Zhang's house. 's yard.

"You read that right?"

"That's right, the master did take the two girls out together. He said they were going to Wenyuanhou's Mansion for a family banquet. The boy at the door said that the three girls were dressed up. I guess they came there for some other purpose. ”

The one who came closer to talk was a fatter mother named Qi. She had a slightly slanted brow, and she looked like she was not easy to deal with.

And sitting on the Eight Immortals table with a pot of marigold snow bird's nest stew is Zhang, the most proud second wife in the house now. She is seen wearing a bright red cloud-woven long skirt with embroidered patterns, and a thin shirt of the same color. She is thin and looks a little bit difficult to look at.

Especially those eyes, which were spinning around, and it was clear from a glance that she was quite dissatisfied with the fact that the third girl could go to Wenyuanhou Mansion.

"Jin'er has been married for less than a month, why is Aunt Yang in the next courtyard jealous? Doesn't she also want to send her daughter to the Marquis' Mansion?"

"How can it not be possible? The marriage of our second girl to the prince is the red thread that connects us to the old man, a good match sent by God. How can these three girls be compared? Besides, with her appearance and talent, she wants to enter the prince's mansion. Isn't it just a dream? Second Madam, look at it, even if you enter the Marquis Mansion, you will be just like your mother, just a concubine."

Mother Qi's words made Mrs. Zhang, the second lady, feel much happier. She touched the spoon with the bowl, put the bird's nest into her mouth in big gulps, and said something calculating with her eyes open.

"I haven't been to the old lady to serve you for several days. Let's clean up and take the deer antler paste that Jin'er was given last time. Let's take a look."

Mother Qi reacted immediately and responded with a smile.

The two masters and servants were waiting to pour out the evil in their stomachs. Among the slightly faster carriages on the imperial street, Jiang Shishu, who had not been out for a long time, couldn't help but peek out.

Wenyuanhou Mansion is located in the northeast corner of Xijing City. There are three main streets across from Jiang's house, including Danyang Road that goes straight up from south to north.

Danyang Road is the Royal Street.

If the royal guard of honor goes out on patrol, the streets and roads will naturally be closed, and all the people will kneel and worship on both sides, so that no one can get a glimpse of God's grace. But today is an ordinary day, so there are many pedestrians on the road. Many people walk along both sides of the imperial street to watch. The whole city of Xijing is prosperous.

There are people selling and shouting everywhere on the street. Because it is almost time for dinner, the fragrance fills the entire Royal Street. Some are in shops, and some are just setting up stalls by the Royal River to sell sugar water. Here come the wontons.

Jiang Shishu had never seen such liveliness before.

Naturally curious.

"Speaking of which, although my daughter has been in Xijing City for ten years, she has never been to many places in this city. If father takes a break someday, how about taking us around the city?"

When Jiang Huaishan was sitting in the carriage with his eyes closed and resting, he heard a familiar voice coming from his ears. When he opened his eyes, it was his daughter Jiang Shiyuan.

Although the words came from her mouth, Jiang Huaishan could clearly see the meaning. He said it for the sister next to him. He reached out and touched the smooth goatee on his chin and responded.

"May is the evil month. It's not a day when heaven and earth are in harmony. It's not good to go out and hang out. Wait until the beginning of July. I heard that Lanyue Tower is going to hold a grand begging party. When the time comes, my father will take you sisters out for a walk and join in the fun. ”

Hearing this, Jiang Shishu's eyes filled with expectations.
