Spring Banquet
Chapter 33: Life or death with 850 diamonds plus more (1)
A few words that were soft and ingenious, fell into the ears like a thunder on the ground, and it exploded off guard.
Chengxu took a breath and was shocked for a long time before retrieving his own voice: "The genus... the subordinate will go now!"
Ziyang Jun, who has always been indifferent to everything, would be so angry as a beauty? After being shocked, he was a little moved. Not easy! The old iron tree, which has lived for more than 20 years, finally has a lively flower, so everyone in the Jiang family really has to come and see!
Thinking about this, there was wind under his feet, and he rushed out of the wing in a flash.
Huaiyu was lying on the bed unconsciously, listening to someone in her ear, but couldn't understand what was being said. Dimly, I felt that someone had turned himself over, and then he was gently pulled by something behind his back, and the flesh immediately hurt.
"Hiss--" She moaned in pain, and she lifted her eyelids with difficulty.
Lingxiu was standing next to her bed, holding half of her coat in her hand, staring at her back, tears falling down like broken beads. Seeing her open her eyes, tears fell more fiercely: "Miss..."
"Why are you crying again?" Huaiyu said to her in a daze, "I'm fine... don't cry first..."
Is this okay? Lingxiu shook her head in a hurry, her mouth opened, but she found her throat was blocked and she stomped her feet. She cried more fiercely with a "wow".
Jiang Xuanjin was avoiding with her back to the bed. At first hearing Lingxiu's cry, she thought something was wrong with the person on the bed, and she turned her head back.
The person on the bed was lying on his stomach, half of his clothes faded, the material against his back was stuck with blood, and wherever his eyes were, it was black and bloody.
There is such a serious injury on the back? ! Jiang Xuanjin's heart was shocked, a little bit incredulous. Who are the people in the White House who can really put such a heavy hand on her?
Li Huaiyu's pupils were dilated and his breath was weak, but he still intermittently said to Lingxiu: "It's just a little skin injury... I didn't make them feel better... Don't worry..."
Seeing her like this, Jiang Xuanjin frowned, and ignored any indecent, stepped forward to take Lingxiu's position and said to her: "Go to the doctor."
Lingxiu cried to herself, but it took a long time to react, nodded and ran out.
She ran out of sight, Li Huaiyu moved his eyes arduously, and set his gaze on the person next to him.
"You..." Still not dead, teasing his mind. Even if he is half dead, Huaiyu said to him with a dumb voice, "Your face is so ugly...Are you feeling sorry for me?"
It looks like this, still in the mood to say such a nonsense? Jiang Xuanjin was really out of anger: "No!"
Grievously flattened his mouth, Huaiyu muttered in a low voice: "It's so unfeeling..."
The unfeeling Jiang Xuanjin was stern, waiting to ask her why she did this, but seeing the person on the bed tilted her head as if she couldn't hold it, her eyes suddenly closed.
Shocked, he immediately reached out and sniffed her.
A breath still exists.
His heart fell silent, and then he beat frantically. Jiang Xuanjin lowered her head and looked at it, and felt that she might have some kind of heart disease, which was not normal for the whole day today.
"My lord." Lingxiu came back shortly after she went out, stomping anxiously, "They said that the doctor in the mansion is on the side of the wife, so there is no time to come over!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuanjin's face turned cold.
There is still an explanation for the fine family law, but knowing that Bai Zhuji was injured so badly, she detained the doctor woman by her side, making it clear that she was going to kill her. Madam dignified Yushi, her heart is so vicious?
Taking off the inscription on the waist, and handing it to her with the purse, Jiang Xuanjin said: "You take these to the outside of the house and ask a doctor girl to come back, go to the side door, you don't have to tell the mother of the Bai family."
"Yes!"
The medical girl who went out of the house to ask was much easier than the one in the house, but the medical girl had never loosened her brows since she hit the door and saw the person on the bed.
"You have to take off the clothes for the girl first, and prepare some warm water for me. If there is clean salt in the house, bring some over," she said.
Lingxiu obeyed, Jiang Xuanjin stood by and watched, and couldn't help asking: "Is there a serious problem?"
The doctor girl sighed and said: "This is more than a serious problem. It is a hard life for this girl to survive. Looking at her pulse, she must have an old body before, plus this serious injury, both internal and external, and her mind is exhausted. , Little Nuzhen is not sure that he can be cured."
Jiang Xuanjin was startled and frowned, "Just tell me what medicinal materials you need."
"This is no longer a matter of medicinal materials..." The medical girl sighed, looked at his expression, and said helplessly, "The little girl first write a prescription to give this girl a sigh of relief."
"it is good."
Taking a pen and paper to write by her, Jiang Xuanjin turned and walked back to the bed, looked at the pale face, thought for a while, reached out and grabbed her hand, and rubbed the agarwood beads that she wore all the year on her wrist. .
At the moment of Shen, the sun went down.
Bai Dezhong finally took the sedan chair back to the mansion after finishing the Korean affairs. As a result, he had just stepped into the gate of his mansion, and the servant of the eastern courtyard greeted him and said, "Master, go and see the madam!"
"What's wrong with Madam?" He was puzzled.
The slave led the way and shook his head as he walked: "The slave is hard to say, you will understand when you go to the east courtyard."
Bai Dezhong followed along, wondering in his heart that Bai Mengshi would sell him.
However, when he arrived at the door of the main house of the East Yard, he suddenly understood why the slave was not easy to say.
The house, which has always been tidy, is now in a mess. Tables and chairs fell to the ground, and the exquisite porcelains that were placed everywhere in the past are now in fragments. Copper incense burners and silver spittoons are all smashed on the ground and transformed, and there are even blood stains on the walls.
Frowning his brows, Bai De shouted: "This is a thief!"
Bai Meng came out from the side hall crying, and knelt down towards him while holding the veil: "Master, you have to be the master of your concubine!"
"What the **** is going on?" Baide helped her up again, "what do you want me to do?"
Wiping away tears, Bai Meng choked and said, "What you see is the work of Zhuji! She didn't return last night, but sneaked back this morning. Concubine was angry that she didn't love herself, so she wanted to punish her. The second has a long memory, who would have thought that she refused to obey discipline, wounded her servant, and smashed everything in her concubine's house!"
Bai De was shocked when he heard: "Really?"
"All the evidence is here, can my concubine lie?" Bai Mengshi sighed, "It was because of Zhuji that she had lost her marriage and was sad, so she didn't want to care about her too much. It would be fine for a few days. Who ever thought. Not only did she have no regrets at all, she also found someone to support her, and she was not punished as much as she deserved, and she went away with great power!"
Bai De was furious: "Who dares to support her?"
At the mention of this, Bai Meng clanked twice, but did not dare to answer.
The mother Liu who was next to her immediately continued, "The fourth lady has done more than that! She also stole the second lady's dowry, and she was not ashamed to be found, but threatened to steal all the second lady's dowry!"
What is this called? Bai De was so angry that he couldn't care about supporting him or not. He stretched out his hand and took out the mahogany ruler from his sleeve, and shouted, "Where is she now!"
Bai Meng said, "It's in the West Court."
Bai De turned around and left, his heart was furious!
He has always been self-disciplined, teaching his children and doing his best, not asking them to have much success, as long as he knows the courtesy, righteousness and shame, and argues between black and white, it is not wasted his many years of effort. What was the result, he actually taught an arrogant, lawless bandit?
Bai Zhuji did not return all night last night. He was already under pressure. Today, when Bai Mengshi said, Bai Dezhong really wanted to beat Bai Zhuji back into his mother's womb, as he had never given birth to this daughter!
All the way to the west courtyard, he pushed open the door of the wing and saw Bai Zhuji sleeping on the bed.
He was still sleeping!
Angrily, Bai De stepped into the room without looking at the other people in the room, and struck the person on the bed with the ruler!
"Master!" Lingxiu exclaimed.
Bai Dezhong ignored her, and couldn't bother her. Now it's useless for anyone to stop him. He didn't intend to stop with this ruler!
However, among the flashing stones, someone suddenly turned sideways and blocked the bed. The three-foot-long mahogany ruler fell on the man's hand with a crisp sound.
"Snapped!"
Everyone in the room took a breath.
Bai De was stunned, staring at the man's hand holding the ruler for a while, then slowly raised his head to look at his face.
"Master Bai." Jiang Xuanjin's face was gloomy, she pinched the other end of the ruler and pushed aside, closing her sleeves and asking, "What are you doing?"
"Your Majesty?!" Seeing that it was him, Bai De took two steps back, and for a moment thought he had made a mistake. Looking back, the furnishings of the house, the scenery outside, including the Lingxiu standing next to him, all prove that this is indeed a pearly room.
At the end of Shen Shimo, it was getting late, but Ziyang Jun was still in someone else's daughter's room? !
The anger that had just stagnated came up again, and Bai De looked at him incredulously, and said in annoyance and anger: "I thought you were an upright gentleman who understands etiquette, but I didn't expect to be able to do this kind of intrusion into the boudoir. !"
Can't see the half-dead biological daughter on the bed, but accuse him of breaking into the boudoir? Jiang Xuanjin frowned and looked at him, and instantly understood why Bai Meng dared to beat Bai Zhuji like this.
Bai Dezhong, the old man, didn't take Bai Zhuji's life seriously.
"Your Majesty." The doctor next to him handed him the medicine tremblingly, "It's going to be faster, no delay."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xuanjin didn't care about Bai De's weight. After receiving the medicine, she said to Lingxiu: "Help your lady."
"Yes!" Lingxiu hurriedly went over and sat on the head of the bed, holding up Li Huaiyu and letting her turn sideways to facilitate the injection.
After flipping, Bai Dezhong found that the face of the person on the bed was as pale as paper, and the smell of blood in the room was heavy.
"What's the matter?" He was stunned.
Lingxiu gritted her teeth: "The young lady was beaten to death by the lady, and there is no good place in her body. The master does not care, but he still wants to beat the young lady for the last breath! She is also your biological daughter anyway! You! Why is your heart so cruel!"
Upon hearing this, Bai De was surprised: "Madam hit her?"
After a pause, she frowned and said, "She should have made so many mistakes!"
The blue veins on her forehead jumped, Jiang Xuanjin looked at Bai Dezhong, finally she couldn't bear it, she shouted with a cold face, "Yufeng!"
Chengxu went to Jiang Mansion, Yufeng came to Bai Mansion first after hearing the news. At this moment, Yufeng immediately pulled out the Emei thorn on his waist.
"What are you doing?" Bai De sternly said, "This is the White Mansion! The more he doesn't say anything, he wants to deceive the Lord?"
Ignoring his words at all, Jiang Xuanjin ordered Yufeng: "Clean out the idle people and others in this yard. You guard at the door. Don't let a fly in without my instructions."
"Yes!" Yufeng responded, and Emei stab crossed in front of Bai Dezhong and pushed him out.
He is included in the four words "xian, miscellaneous, etc."? Bade came out of the room again, and when he looked back, he was really angry: "Jiang Xuanjin, you are deceiving too much! Tomorrow will come up, and the old man will definitely join you!"
Putting down the empty medicine bowl, Jiang Xuanjin got up and went to the door, pinching the string of the door and looking at the anxious person outside, and said coldly: "My lord, just go to participate, my lord is waiting for your majesty to summon."
After that, he waved his hand and closed the door, blocking all the noisy sounds from the outside.
Everyone in the room was too scared to say anything, the doctor girl shivered over the medicinal materials that Yufeng had brought, and Lingxiu hurriedly went to see Huaiyu on the bed.
I don’t know, she was so frightened that she exclaimed: "Miss!"
The person on the bed frowned, his pale face just turned red to an abnormal color, his mouth was slightly open, and his whole body twitched, like a fish falling on a rock. The skin that had been well-medicated oozes blood again.
Jiang Xuanjin nodded tightly, strode over quickly, and reached out to probe her forehead.
The tentacles are hot!
Taking a breath, he turned his head to look at the doctor woman: "It's feverish."
When the doctor heard this, she hurriedly put down the things in her hand, and took her pulse in the past, her expression instantly solemn.
how? Jiang Xuanjin looked at her.
The medical girl sighed, pointed her finger outside the door, got up and walked out. Jiang Xuanjin understood, followed out and brought the door.
"I'll speak up." The door closed, and the doctor woman whispered, "This girl has serious internal and external injuries, especially the spleen and lungs. If she doesn't develop a high fever, she may have a chance to take some elixir, but the high fever will not go away at this time. ..."
She didn't say the rest. Jiang Xuanjin also understood that her face was calm, but her cuffs were slightly closed.
The medical girl sighed: "I'll go and grab some antipyretic medicine for her again, and I will find some drinks from Mr. Labor and let someone wipe her body. Whether it can survive it depends on her good fortune."
"Okay." He whispered, and he watched the doctor woman leave, standing still at the door for a while.
The night was as cold as water, and the lights were turned off everywhere in the White Mansion, except for the wing of the West Courtyard. Reaching out to receive the light leaking from the crack in the door, Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips and sighed extremely lightly.
Pushing the door back, he asked Lingxiu to find half a jar of wine, then twisted the veil, and wiped Huaiyu's face, hands and feet little by little. Repeatedly for an hour, it didn't even bother you.
Jiang Xuanjin finally stopped when the doctor's medicine was delivered.
"Feed her down." The medical girl gestured, "Be careful not to touch her wound."
Lingxiu picked up Huaiyu in response, Jiang Xuanjin took the medicine and let her cool down, and delivered a spoonful of it to her mouth.
However, Li Huaiyu did not swallow the medicine this time. He frowned and vomited it all out. Jiang Xuanjin looked at it, her face darkened, and she simply put the spoon down, picked up the bowl and pinched her mouth to pour it down.
Although I vomited a lot, I swallowed some. After a bowl of medicine bottomed out, Jiang Xuanjin clamped her on for another half an hour, and Huaiyu gradually settled down without convulsions.
As the night darkened, the noise outside the courtyard gradually disappeared. Lingxiu looked at the time anxiously, then at Ziyang Jun, who was sitting still by the bed, and couldn't help but whispered: "Your Majesty, go to the guest room to rest. There are slaves and maids watching."
Jiang Xuanjin did not move, only changed her veil and continued to wipe her face, and asked her smoothly, "What does your lady eat in the house on weekdays?"
Lingxiu was taken aback for a moment and didn't understand why he wanted to ask this, but she answered truthfully: "According to the usual daily breakfast, congee and side dishes, two vegetarian dishes and one or two rice in the afternoon, dinner is similar to lunch."
As he said, he babbled again: "This mansion is full of people who see high and low steps, knowing that the lady doesn't want to see my lady. The cost of food and clothing is bad. When the lady was stupid, they still took the lady. For fun, I didn’t beat her and bullied her. Now the lady has finally become sober, and they have changed Fac to deduct the money. The lady’s life is really difficult!"
After listening, Jiang Xuanjin glanced at the person on the bed and said in a low voice: "I thought... I really blamed her."
At that time, she said that she could not have enough to eat and wear in the White Mansion, and he even pretended to be a lie to him to sympathize, but what she said was true, but he did not want to believe it.
In those lies he thought for so long, is there also her sincerity that he has ignored?
With this thought, countless words that she had said suddenly sounded in her ears:
...
"Are you stupid, the girl said that she would pay you, just want to hook up with you, who cares whether you need to pay?"
...
"I won't let go, don't say these useless words."
...
"In my eyes, naturally you are the most important."
...
Jiang Xuanjin frowned and subconsciously wanted to shake her head to drive away these sounds. However, the softest sentence finally penetrated into his ear unstoppably.
"I want to be with you. See you every year."
She sounded like an eagle, with a charming little hook at the end, which made people feel itchy.
With a hot heart, Jiang Xuanjin only felt her throat tighten. Looking down again, the smiling face in his ears gradually disappeared, and the person on the bed was still weak and pale.
He quickly squeezed the veil in his hand.
"Master?" Lingxiu was startled and looked at him puzzled.
Slightly startled, he noticed that he was out of state, and slowly lowered his eyes: "It's okay."
The restlessness in her chest gradually calmed down, Jiang Xuanjin stretched out her hand and probed Huaiyu's forehead.
The fever has not gone away.
His heart sank, he turned his head and said to the doctor woman: "Come and see her."
The doctor girl dozing off at the table recovered and hurried over to get her pulse again. With this one, the lips are white.
"How?" Jiang Xuanjin asked.
After hesitating for a while, the doctor woman uttered four words with difficulty: "It's up to fate."
Jiang Xuanjin listened and looked down at the person on the bed, her eyebrows not loose.
Reaching out and dialing the Buddhist beads that she had worn on her wrists that had been with him for many years, he whispered: "Even if it's a destiny, you should be partial to you."
Listening to this, Lingxiu glanced at him in amazement, feeling her nose sour inexplicably.
After Bai Dezhong left the west courtyard. Go back to Bai Mengshi's side. Although he was very angry at Jiang Xuanjin's domineering behavior, he calmed down and felt that something was wrong, so he asked Bai Meng, "You caused the injury on Zhuji?"
Bai Meng gave a meal, and then said aggrieved: "Didn’t the concubine say that? I wanted her to have a long memory, so I asked her for family law. But family law is not important at all, who is willing to hit her hard You must not believe those blindfolds!"
"What's the matter with Ziyang Jun?" Bai De frowned, "Why didn't you tell me before that he was protecting Zhuji?"
The Bai Meng clan was even more aggrieved: "What identity does Ziyang Jun never give to his concubine if he is half-faced, where can he still dare to sue him?"
It is true that he is half-faced, let alone Bai Mengshi, he is not pleased with him.
Bai De thought about it again, and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Bai Meng said, so he got angry, so he should wash and rest first, planning to visit him tomorrow morning.
But when he really fell asleep, he hesitated again as he walked on the way up.
Yesterday, Mr. Ziyang didn't have a trace of guilt on his face, and he was righteous between sitting and sitting, not as if he had done something wrong. When he left, he was even more afraid that he would play the emperor, and even said he was waiting for his majesty to summon him.
Is there something hidden he doesn't know?
Standing in the queue, quietly glanced at the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, Bai Dehesitated again and again, after all, he swallowed the memorial he had thought up.
Today, there were inexplicably few people in the court, and the court meeting ended in one hour. Bai De stepped out of the palace hurriedly, thinking that if Jiang Xuanjin still stayed in the west courtyard today and didn't give a statement, then he would go to the old man of the Jiang family and talk.
However, one foot stepped into the White House, and Bai De was taken aback by the scene inside.
The bridegroom burdens covered with red silk lined up from the door to the front hall, looking at it, it looked like a fiery red dragon.
"Master!" The concierge came up to salute him with joy, "You can come back, everyone from the Jiang family is waiting in the front hall!"
For a moment, Bai De patted his forehead lightly. Secretly said that he was really confused, and he forgot that today was the day when Jiang Fu came to hire him. Xuanji's marriage is the most important right now. As for other things, we can wait until we have time.
Raising the spirit, he arranged his manners and stepped into the front hall.
Bai Meng's was already standing in the front hall, and the rest of the light swept over the red of the house full of courtyards, and his brows were simply delighted.
The dowry gift has always determined how much the mother-in-law’s family attaches importance to their daughter-in-law. Her family’s Xuanji is so promising that Jiang’s family has given the highest rule of sixty-four lifts. Just by looking at the exposed corners of the first two shoulders, you can know the red There is plenty of weight under the silk.
The relatives of the Bai family standing behind her all envied and said: "Xuanji married well, this daughter is not in vain!"
When Bai Meng heard this, he was even more happy, but he still held his lips in a reserved face and said: "The betrothal gift is second, and it is the business that Xuanji can marry a good husband."
Several relatives complimented her again and lifted Bai Meng to the sky.
The Jiang family sat in the guest seat and drank tea quietly without saying a word.
Bai De re-entered and didn't look at it much. He first met Jiang Chong, who was at the front, and said, "Kindness Lao and everyone have been waiting."
Jiang Chong got up, did not respond to his "in-law", and said, "Master Bai serves the country, so we should wait."
Bade was taken aback for a moment and smiled politely, but felt that something was wrong. Sweeping his gaze to the side, he was immediately stunned.
Grandpa Jiang was sitting in the guest seat with his dragon-head stick, and beside him was a smiling Jiang Shen. The row of people standing behind were all relatives of Uncle Jiang, and they were all people with faces and faces in the center.
No wonder it was so empty today, why did these people come here? !
With horror in his heart, Bai De resolutely calmed himself, and handed over to the old man Jiang to make up a salute: "The old man went to the house in person, Bai is really terrified!"
Grandpa Jiang smiled and looked at him kindly and said, "In-law, sit down first."
Glancing at the people behind him, Bai De took a seat stiffly, and only dared to sit for a while, standing straight.
The old lady said again: "The old man is here to hire today."
Bai De nodded, and said, "Actually, the general can come here according to the rules. You come here, but Bai is ashamed of the lack of courtesy."
The old man smiled and shook his head: "The old man came here according to the rules. Don't worry about your family. The courtesy at the house is very thorough."
What does this mean? Bai Dezhong was a little at a loss, and Bai Mengshi behind him was also confused.
According to the rules, isn't the bridegroom's father coming over to pay the bride price? Jiang Yan is going to marry, what is the old man doing? Besides, is the general scornful? How to call Bai De an "adult"? It should be called "in-law" like the old lady.
Before they could understand, Mrs. Jiang said again: "Will Xu Zi Xuanjin still harass in your house?"
Speaking of this, Bai Dezhong's face looked a little ugly: "You must be still in the West Court."
"That's good." The old lady nodded and said in a blink of an eye to Jiang Chong, "Go and call him over."
Bai Mengshi took a look. Hurriedly interrupted and said: "So many people from the Jiang family came today for Xuanji's marriage. They are already inviting the teacher to move the crowd, so why bother to disturb the king?"
Taking a look at her, the old lady smiled and said, "If it's for the second lady of your house, I don't have to sit here today."
As soon as he said this, Bai Dezhong finally thought of something, looked at the Jiang family in amazement, opened his mouth to talk, and felt that his idea was really absurd, and he couldn't say it.
Bai Meng's frowned still incomprehensibly, feeling that this was inexplicable. The people in the White House whispered and talked.
West yard wing.
Jiang Xuanjin stayed awake all night, but still did not wait until the person on the bed woke up. Her eyes were staring at the pulsed medical girl, the color dark as night.
The doctor woman pressed her pulse tremblingly, and did not say the result for a long while. He was a little anxious, and wanted to probe the man's breath again. However, before the finger was put on, the door of the wing was pushed open.
"Master." Yufeng came in and said, "The old man invites you to the front hall, and the old man is waiting for you outside the courtyard."
Ask him to go. Presumably it was Bai De who returned to the palace again. Jiang Xuanjin pursed her lips and looked at the person on the bed. Her fingers stopped an inch away from her snort. After thinking about it, she finally dropped down and tucked the quilt for her.
"I'll take care of other things for her first." He stood up and said to Lingxiu, "Take care of your lady. If you have anything, you will come and let me know."
Lingxiu nodded repeatedly.
After receiving the clean robe from Yufeng, Jiang Xuanjin changed her clothes, wiped her face with cold water, and went out to find Jiang Chong. The two went to the front hall together, and as soon as they crossed the threshold, they heard the old man yelling: "How decent are you!"
Everyone was taken aback, not knowing who he was scolding. Jiang Xuanjin consciously stepped forward, stood in front of him and lowered her head: "My son is rude."
"Do you know that you are rude?" The old lady stared straight, "When you are hired, can you marry someone later than your relatives?"
The front hall was still noisy just now, because of this sentence, it was instantly quiet as if everyone was dead.
Bai De's eyes widened again, and Bai Meng's eyes widened. In the back, all the Bai family members were stupid. Some people even dug their ears, suspecting that they were dreaming.
Who is going to marry? Ziyang Jun? Isn't this old lady always confused?
In shock, Jiang Xuanjin's expression was very calm, turned to Bai Dezhong, and whispered quietly: "The juniors are late, and I hope you can forgive me."
Bai Dezhong: "..."
Although Jiang Xuanjin is younger than him in seniority, her identity is placed here, and she has always claimed to be "owner". At first hearing that he called himself a "junior", Bai De was inexplicably panicked.
"What's going on?" Bai Meng clan lost his composure, frowned and glanced at Jiang Xuanjin, then looked back at the old man behind him, "Should we not hire Xuanji for the young master of the Jiang family today? How did she become Ziyang? Do you want to marry?"
The old man rode his cane and smiled: "Today, we invite so many people from the two families to come here to make it clear, so as not to fall into the tongue in the future-Xuan Jin is older than Yan'er, so naturally his marriage will be in line Yan'er's front. Today, my Jiang Mansion is here and there, just to let Master Bai see my Jiang Mansion's sincerity and feel relieved to marry my daughter to Xuan Jin."
Hearing these words, Bai Dezhong was shocked, not just how sincere Jiang Mansion was, but shocked... Jun Ziyang actually wanted to be his son-in-law?
How many people in the DPRK want to get married with Ziyang Jun. Elder Qi Ge was even willing to give him his concubine. He didn't even look at such a beautiful beauty, so why did he look at Bai Zhuji?
If nothing happened yesterday, Bai Dezhong might still naively think that Mr. Ziyang was after Xuanji. But after what happened yesterday... if he didn't know who he wanted to marry, he would have lived for more than 40 years!
Bai Meng clearly thought of this too, his face turned from red to white instantly, staring at Jiang Xuanjin, her fingernails embedded in the flesh.
He wants to marry Bai Zhuji? How could he marry Bai Zhuji! Xuanji's marriage to Jiang Yan is still considered high, so why do those four fools marry Ziyang Jun? If this happens, Xuanji will call her aunt in the future? It's ridiculous!
Furious, she didn't care about etiquette anymore, and hurriedly said: "This is not possible!"
Bai Dezhong hadn't spoken yet, but the female spouse spoke first. Old Mrs. Jiang frowned, glanced at her displeasedly, and asked in a deep voice, "Why not?"
Bai Meng clan was a little flustered, and angrily stepped forward and asked: "Does the old man know who the Lord wants to marry?"
"Naturally know." He nodded, "The fourth lady of your house, Bai Zhuji."
"Since you know, the old lady should also know that Bai Zhuji has been stupid for many years and behaved badly! It is not enough to marry the young master, so how can he marry the king?" Bai Mengshi repeatedly shook his head. "Please think twice!"
This was so awful that he stepped on Jiang Yan's foot invisibly, and Jiang Chong, who was next to him, glanced at her, and his expression disappeared immediately.
"You are presumptuous!" Bai De noticed that something was wrong, and scolded her, "Where is there a place for you to speak?"
"The king is the pillar of the country, so naturally his marriage can't be sloppy. Even if the master punishes the concubine today, the concubine must be clarified, and she must not be deceived by the king!" Bai Meng's fair attitude of righteousness and kinship, "concubine body What he said, every sentence is true. Not only did Bai Zhuji become a thief, but he didn't return home at night, and his reputation was ruined. It's hard to be elegant!"
Marrying a daughter from another family is anxious to say everything nicely, for fear of being despised by her in-laws. This white mansion is good, the hired talent said a few words, and the mistress of the house is anxious to pour dirty water on the daughter to be married.
Jiang Xuanjin raised her eyes to look at her anxious look, and slightly curled her lips: "The sentence is true?"
Meeting his gaze, Bai Meng was a little vacant, but still nodded vigorously: "Yes. Everyone in the house knows! Bai Zhuji stole her second sister's dowry because of her vanity. She didn't know where she went yesterday. Didn't come back tonight!"
"Stealing her second sister's dowry?" Jiang Xuanjin thought for a while, "Ms. Bai is referring to the jewelry on Miss Fourth yesterday?"
"Yes!" Bai Meng said confidently, "It was all prepared by the concubine for the second daughter. The concubine has seen it personally. There is nothing wrong with it."
With a sneer, Jiang Xuanjin flipped her hand out and took out a golden silk eight-treasure hairpin: "Mrs. Bai, let's take a look. Is this also the second lady's dowry?"
This was Bai Zhuji's fall in Mo Curie, or the Bai Mansion that Yufeng picked up and brought. He planned to pay her back when she woke up, but it came in handy.
Bai Meng looked at the hairpin in his hand, felt that the workmanship was similar to that of Bai Zhuji, and immediately nodded: "Yes! This is also!"
Withdrawing her hand, Jiang Xuanjin nodded: "This is easy. This hairpin comes from the Canghai Yizhu Pavilion. The shopkeeper Lu’s house is next door. If Mrs. Bai insists on saying that these things are the dowry you bought for the second lady, Then you might as well invite shopkeeper Lu, and you will know everything after asking."
As soon as he said this, Bai Meng's face suddenly turned green. Then he said angrily: "The king means that the concubine is lying?"
This is a rhetorical question from annoyance to anger. How can ordinary people say "I didn't mean this" when they were bluffed by her.
However, standing in front of her was Jiang Xuanjin, who had never made a face.
"You are lying." He curled his eyebrows, his expression became colder and colder. "The jewelry of Miss Fourth was a gift from the treasurer of the Canghai Legacy Pearl Pavilion Lu, but you said it was the dowry of the second Miss Bai. As the mistress of the house, how can you slander the junior in public?"
Unexpectedly, the lie would be exposed on the spot, and Bai Meng's was immediately too embarrassed to stand up, stammering, embarrassed.
With her appearance, Bai De felt embarrassed when he looked at her again, and angrily said: "How dare you talk nonsense here!"
"Concubine..." Bai Meng gritted his teeth, cheeky and refused to admit it, "The concubine didn't lie! It is clear that the monarch deliberately sheltered Bai Zhuji! Take a few steps back and say, even if she got the jewelry from elsewhere, she It's also true that she doesn't return home at night! A girl who hasn't been out of the cabinet stays overnight in someone else's house. Who knows what happened!"
"You are fooling around!" Bai Dezhong finally couldn't sit still because of the fame of his daughter's family. He got up and slapped Bai Mengshi. Beat her a few steps.
Covering his face and supporting the table, Bai Meng's eyes became more and more resentful: "What the concubine said is the truth, and it is for the sake of our Bai family. If you marry Zhuji on an impulse and go back, will you find something wrong? ?"
This can be said to be a sinister intention, every word implies that Bai Zhuji is not clean, and when he speaks it in front of the elders of the two families, he hardly intends to leave Bai Zhuji a way out.
Everyone in the Jiang family looked at each other, and after a moment of silence, Grandpa Jiang suddenly stood up and bends back toward Bai De.
Bai Dezhong hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, frowning and said: "You are Zhe Zhenbai!"
"The old man deserves this gift." Old Mrs. Jiang sighed, "As Mrs. Bai said, it is indeed outrageous for a girl who has not left the pavilion to stay overnight at someone else's house."
Bai Meng was overjoyed when he heard this, thinking that his words finally worked.
However, the old lady went on to say: "What's more, Xuan Jin has always been a ceremonial person. Knowing that this is not good for the fourth lady, but left her in Jiang Mansion for the night. It is really an old godson who has no choice but to be ashamed of her family!"
Jiang Chong at the back also bent over: "As the eldest brother, I didn't stop him, and I am ashamed to confront Master Bai!"
Jiang Shen bowed his hands: "As the second brother, I didn't stop me. I am even more ashamed to confront Master Bai!"
All the people in the row behind the Jiang family who knew about the "Three Young Masters hiding women in the room" all saluted Bai De again. As Jiang's family, not only did they not stop them, but they were very happy. They were really ashamed!
Seeing the brushing heads in front of him, Bai De was stunned, and Bai Mengshi was also stunned.
"Last night... Did Zhu Ji spend the night in Jiang Mansion?" Bai Dezhong asked in a low voice.
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at him with a cold expression: "The fourth lady hurt her foot in Jiangfuwei yesterday, and she was inconvenient to walk for a while, so the younger generation let her live in the guesthouse. This matter is because the juniors have not considered it well. It has nothing to do with the fourth lady. Forgive me."
It turns out that everything is slanderous when it comes to stealing or not returning home at night. After everyone listened to Jiang Xuanjin's words, their eyes fell on the mother of the Bai family. This time, even the Bai family felt that Bai Meng's behavior this time was really vicious and absurd!
Bai Dezhong looked at Jiang Xuanjin guiltily: "So Jun Shang was so arrogant yesterday because the old man wronged the bead.
