Chapter 772: Heavyweight Soy Sauce (Fanwaiyi)
How could the emperor not reward Jiang Jingyu! Although I am very satisfied with Jiang Jingyu's performance.
At the strong request of the emperor, Jiang Jingyu proposed to let the emperor reward him with a house.
Because after returning to the capital, the Jiang mansion they lived in was rented, and it was too small.
The emperor generously gave Jiang Jingyu the former official office of the Minister of Officials, that is, Jiangfu.
After all, it was a house that had been abandoned for a long time, and Jiang Jingyu had it repaired a little.
Today is the housewarming of the Jiang family, and many guests have been entertained!
Being able to return to Jiangfu again, Mother Jiang's heart is full of mixed flavors!
Most of the guests at the banquet were family members of officials who had a good relationship with Jiang's father, and some friends who had made good friends with Jiang Jingyu.
The one who came to the banquet, of course, was Bi Xueyao.
Because she thought she was in-law anyway, Mother Jiang also invited the Shui family who had been living in Hongfu Restaurant.
It was good in the beginning, the Shui family was honest and did not embarrass the Jiang family.
In the afternoon, Jiang Jingyu took the male guests to recite poetry and compose a pair of drinking and chatting.
Mother Jiang took Shui Yiyi and Ling Wuzhi to watch a play with those officials and wives.
These are basically the pastimes of ancient times. Ling Wuwei would doze off every time he listened to the play, and he couldn't listen to it at all!
Xiaron's contact made Ling Wuzhi a little sober: "What's the matter?"
"Shuicheng and his son went to gamble again!" Sharon said.
Ling Wuxie suddenly woke up. She sat up straight and looked at the stage, but she didn't hear what was being sung on it.
Going to gamble again? After several months of enduring it, can you finally bear it?
Suddenly thought of something, Ling Wuyi tilted her head and glanced at Bi Xueyao who was whispering to Mother Jiang.
seemed to know what Ling Wuzhi was thinking, Xia Lun said, "It is indeed Bi Xueyao who asked Shui Cheng and his son to talk about the casino."
Before , the reason why Shuicheng and his son could endure not to gamble for so long was because there was no money.
Gradually, I got used to not thinking about gambling.
Today Jiang Jingyu gave Shuicheng some money, mainly because they have been here for so long. After all, it is his wife's maiden family, so there is no need to do so absolutely.
And looking at the appearance of water as a father and son, it should not be gambling.
Ling Wuyi believed that when Jiang Jingyu gave money to Shuicheng and his son, Shuicheng and his son did not intend to gamble.
After all, you haven’t gambled for so long, so you should quit?
But someone was talking about the casino next to him, which aroused the gambling addiction of Shui Cheng and his son.
squeezed the silver note in his sleeve pocket, Shui Cheng and his son couldn't help but went to the casino.
But in order to avoid what Ling Wuyi said, there is a possibility that the emperor can meet the royal family and nobles at any time. Shuicheng and his son went to a small casino to inquire about this.
Shuicheng and his son thought that the small casino should not bet too much, so he just had to pass the addiction...
I just didn’t expect that compared with the big casino, the small casino is even darker!
It has not been half an hour, under the calculation of the casino, Shui Cheng and his son have already lost a thousand taels.
In order to prevent Bi Xueyao from wanting people from the casino to come to Jiangfu to make trouble, so that Mother Jiang has no good feelings for Shui Yiyi, who is pregnant.
Let those in the capital know that Mrs. Zhuangyuan Lang has two family members of gambling ghosts!
So Ling Wuyi first asked people to find Qiu Qiu, who was in the living room where the male guests were staying, and then whispered to Mother Jiang that it was too boring and wanted to go out for a walk.
Mother Jiang knew that Ling Wu Zhe couldn't stand it, so she didn't say much.
Ling Wuzhi not only left by himself, but also dragged Shui Yiyi away.
"Little aunt, where are you taking me?" Shui Yiyi looked at Ling Wuzhi in confusion.
"I just received the news that your father and fourth brother went to gamble again. Not only did they gamble, they also owed the casino more than a thousand taels."
"Ah?! More than a thousand taels?!" Shui Yiyi felt the world spinning for a while, and she almost collapsed on the ground.
Shui Yiyi is in good health, Ling Wuwei is not worried that she will have fetal gas, she told Shui Yiyi mainly to prepare her mentally.
"Don't worry, but this one thousand taels is not a small amount!" Ling Wuzhi supported Shui Yiyi and whispered.
Shui Yiyi grabbed Ling Wuzhi's arm and was a little overwhelmed: "Little aunt, what should I do then?!"
She wanted to save her father and brother!
But one thousand taels, that's Jiang Jingyu's annual salary!
How did she tell Jiang Jingyu? ! what did she say! ?
If she really asked for this money, then her mother-in-law would definitely not be as nice to her as she is now!
Why? ! Why does her family always hold her back? Why can't she be allowed to live a peaceful life? !
Now Shui Yiyi really regrets that she didn't let her family back to Pudan County earlier!
Now how to do? Let the casinos chop their hands and their feet? !
"Sister-in-law, think about it calmly, for several months, Uncle Shui and Fourth Brother Shui have not been gambling. Why did you choose to gamble today?"
Anyway, Mother Jiang really taught Shui Yiyi some things. After Shui Yiyi became pregnant, Mother Jiang was more willing to teach Shui Yiyi.
So the water Yiyi at this time is all right!
"Someone deliberately lured my father and younger brother to gamble! They lost their bets and owed their debts, and those creditors must come to collect the debts!"
If that is the case, everyone knows that Jiang Jingyu has a father-in-law and brother-in-law who love to gamble.
Everyone knows that she has a maiden father and younger brother who love to gamble!
At that time, she lost the face of the Jiang family. Mother Jiang will not have a good look on her, and Jiang Jingyu's career will also have an impact!
If Jiang Jingyu was a superficial person, he would no longer like her because of this, and would gradually hate her and stay away from her.
At this time, Jiang Jingyu has become the new favorite of today's saints, how many women want to enter the door of Jiang's house!
And the one who wants to enter Jiang's house the most is Bi Xueyao!
Although I can't believe it, Bi Xueyao is the most suitable object of suspicion!
After all, she always came here every now and then to please Mother Jiang. Although Jiang Jingyu didn't look at her much, but because of Mother Jiang, she became more friendly to Bi Xueyao.
"Little aunt, you want to help me, I can't let other people's wishes come true!" Shui Yiyi's face was solemn, and she had made up her mind to defend her own happiness.
No woman will be willing to share the man she loves with others!
If she can't have children, of course she will endure the pain and let other women enter the door generously to inherit the Jiang family!
But she can give birth! Why should she share her husband with others!
Although I can't be sure if it is Bi Xueyao's ghost, but in Shui Yiyi's heart, there is already a determination.
"I will help you deal with this matter, and don't let the people from the casino bring your father and brother to Jiangfu. By the way, I will directly send them back to Pudan County."
"Thank you, Auntie!" Shui Yiyi looked at Ling Wuzhi with a grateful face. She didn't expect Ling Wuzhi to be so willing to help her!
Ling Wuzhi didn't want to help Shui Yiyi, she wanted to help Jiang Jingyu and Jiang's mother.
