Chapter 363 There is indeed a problem
Jiang Jie finished the rice in his bowl in a few seconds, then pestered his sister and asked, "Sister, did you really hit the barbarian to death with a stone as big as a millstone?"
"No." Yingbao poured the leftovers into Dahei's rice bowl and watched him gobble it up.
"Haha! Let me tell you, Brother Hu Zi and Jiang Wu must be bragging." Jiang Jie joked.
Huzi was anxious: "I don't have one! Yingbao obviously..."
Before he finished speaking, Jiang Wu's mouth was covered, and regardless of Hu Zi's struggle, he and Jiang Jie dragged him into the house.
After Jiang Yunniang finished eating, she lay back in the room and cried silently.
Her daughter Hongxiao comforted her: "Mom, don't go tomorrow. I can go by myself."
Jiang Yunniang wiped her tears with the back of her hand and sobbed: "I'm sorry for your father, letting that little bitch's family abuse him. He was obviously well, but he was taken away by the bitch's brother and eaten five stone powder. They I just deliberately wanted to kill him."
Hongxiao also cried: "Mom, what's the use of saying this now?"
My father also came to seek peace, but my mother was unwilling.
Seeing her father leave lonely, Hong Xiao felt heartbroken.
Early the next morning, Hongxiao got up and wanted to go out secretly, but Jiang Yunniang also got up and followed her.
Just like that, the two mother and daughter went to Zhang's house again.
Jiang Cheng also arrived early and kowtowed and burned incense in front of the mourning hall.
Although the Zhang family did not want to see Jiang Yunniang, they were extremely polite to Jiang Cheng.
Even the concubine's father and brother were extremely respectful and polite when they saw Jiang Cheng.
For this reason, the eldest brother of the Zhang family and the concubine's family did not dare to ridicule Jiang Yunniang.
On the way back at noon, Jiang Yunniang took off her mourning clothes and the white flowers on her head and threw them in the wild.
She is now living in Yingbao's niece's house and cannot wear mourning clothes to enter the house. Moreover, her parents are still there, and she cannot wear white flowers on her head.
Hongxiao and her brother Yuying did not come back with them, so they had to stay at Zhang's house to pay filial piety to their biological father for three months.
Only after the filial piety period has passed can the filial piety be removed.
On the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, during the Ghost Festival, Ying Bao went to the Taoist temple with her master and brothers to perform rituals.
There are many taboos on this day.
It is forbidden to have haircuts, sweep graves, hold happy events, go out late, hang clothes to dry, avoid looking in the mirror, tease others, and pick up coins and items on the road.
It is also forbidden to sleep facing the door or window to prevent evil spirits.
Three days later, Yingbao, her two younger brothers and Huzi got on the carriage and went home.
Zhou Wuchang and his eldest apprentice and two apprentices accompanied him.
Yingbao saw many pedestrians along the way, most of them riding mules, horses and ox carts, carrying a lot of luggage.
Could it be that something happened in the capital?
Back in the village, Chun Niang rushed over, hugged her daughter and son, cried and scolded them.
Ying Bao wiped away her tears and said, "Mom, I'll bring you a bamboo pole later, and you can give Xiao Wu a good beating."
Chun Niang chuckled, pinched her daughter, and pinched Jiang Wu again, "Sooner or later I'll be pissed off by you two debt collectors. Wash your hands and faces quickly, and I'll cook some noodles for you."
After that, go to the kitchen to make noodles.
Jiang Jie squinted at his sister and brother and snorted, "Mom is biased. If I do something wrong, you will definitely chase me for two miles with a bamboo pole."
"I'm not chasing you!" Jiang Wu retorted: "He's chasing both of us."
Yingbao ignored them and went to fetch water to wash away the dust of her master and senior brothers.
After that, they cleaned the two side rooms, took out the beddings to dry for a while to remove the mold, and gave them to the master and senior brothers to live in.
I don’t need to clean my house because my mother-in-law cleans it every day.
The bedding has also been freshly dried, and still has a faint fragrance of the sun.
Chun Niang cooked a large pot of noodles and put vegetables and eggs in it.
I also made a big bowl of shrimp paste with sun-dried bean paste, and put a big spoonful in each bowl of noodles.
Zhou Wuchang and his disciples each ate a large bowl of noodles but were still not satisfied, and finally added half a bowl more.
Huzi, Jiang Jie, Jiang Wu, Yingbao and others also finished a large bowl, stroking their bellies and shouting that they were full.
The shrimp paste is really delicious, with dogwood and green beans added in it, which makes it fresh and spicy when mixed with the noodles.
After eating, Yingbao ran out to eat, and took a look at her grandparents, eldest aunt, and second aunt.
Yanru's belly is already big and she will give birth in more than two months.
Her face was rosy and she seemed to be a lot fatter than before.
Yingbao listened to her fetal breathing, and then told her: "From now on, eat less rice and pasta every day, and eat more fish, shrimp, vegetables, and try not to eat before going to bed at night. You have already gained weight, so you can't get fatter again."
If the fetus is too large and Yanru is her first child, it will be difficult to give birth.
Yan Ru nodded and said sheepishly: "I suddenly have a big appetite these days, and I did eat too much."
She used to be full after just one bowl of rice, but now she eats five meals a day, a bowl and a half for each meal, not including vegetables and meat.
Erni put her head in and said, "Mom, I will go to the pond to catch shrimps for you to eat later."
Yan Ru nodded: "Okay."
Ying Bao came out of her second uncle's house and went straight to the school.
Five more houses were built behind the school, where Li Xu's mother and Mrs. Wen's family lived.
Li Xu and Mr. Wu lived in the original house.
"Master! Sister Wen!" Yingbao saluted Mrs. Wen and Wen Shu, and then blessed Mrs. An who was sitting next to her: "Aunt An."
Anshi smiled and said, "Ying Bao, you are back. Your mother is worried."
"It was me who was reckless and made my mother-in-law worry about it," Ying Bao said.
Wen Shu came over and hugged her, "I haven't asked you how you got to Jingzhou yet."
Ying Bao and Wen Shu sat together and talked about the whole story, and finally said: "Thankfully Chu Yan and Xiao Mo led troops to rescue, otherwise Jingzhou would have been lost."
Mrs. Wen frowned slightly: "I heard that Tokyo has been besieged, and I don't know if anyone is going to rescue them."
Her father-in-law and uncle's family are all in the capital. If the city is destroyed, the consequences will be disastrous.
Ying Bao: "Xiao Mo has already led his troops there, but it will take about twenty days to leave from Jingzhou, right?"
Xiao Mo's team was not all cavalry. They ran on both feet. Even if they traveled fifty or sixty miles in one day, it would still take twenty or thirty days.
Mrs. Wen shook her head: "It's too late."
Now we can only pray that Tokyo is safe.
The few chatted for a while, and Wen Shu took Ying Bao back to the house to whisper.
"My marriage to the Xiao family has been cancelled." Wen Shu whispered to Ying Bao: "You are right, there is indeed something wrong with that Xiao Chengjun."
Because of this matter, her mother specially asked someone to secretly investigate Xiao Chengjun's situation. As a result, she discovered that Xiao Chengjun secretly returned to Beijing and took Chen Tiantian and her daughter out of the nunnery.
"You don't know that Chen Tiantian lives in Xiao Chengjun's villa in Luzhou now."
Wen Shu frowned and said, "Thankfully you reminded me, otherwise..."
She felt unhappy when she thought that her grandmother would let her marry such a person.
Although the Xiao family has a distinguished family background, what that man did is shameful.
"If he cares about Chen Tiantian and takes her in, no one else will say anything. However, he secretly hides the woman in a secret place with an unfair reputation. What does this mean? Is he raising an extramarital wife? Or is he preparing for the future? Is the matchmaker getting married?"
"The matchmaker is getting married!" Yingbao said, "Xiao Chengjun will definitely marry her in the future!"
If the two of them are not together for eternity, then God will not open his eyes.
Therefore, they must have lovers and finally get married.
