Chapter 43: go to the king's house to ask for a cow
Chapter 43
"Say-y-y-give-me-drink-cow-milk-?" Jiang Liu asked slowly.
Steward nodded vigorously, "The villain said it more than once!"
Liujiazhuang was originally from the Wang family, but now it is her mother's dowry, right?
What is married to the mother, the mother left it to her daughter, right?
Now that she leads the cattle from Zhuangzi, she has to go through the Wang family to nod?
Jiang Liu puffed out his cheeks.
Seeing the little girl's grievance, Erye Jiang immediately coaxed, "Don't be angry, Dad has asked us to go to our Zhuangzi to bring ten heads back, and Liu'er looks at which one is pleasing to the eye and which one is left!"
The steward lowered his head, embarrassed to tell the second master that there are less than ten cows in Jiangjiazhuang counted as the male...
Jiang Liu's anger was dissipated by Daddy's words, she tried her best to say with a sullen face, "Just - want - this one!"
Originally, it didn't matter which Zhuangzi's cattle, but my sister said in front of her grandmother that she would pull Liujiazhuang's cattle, and now she can't pull it back, and her grandmother has to blame her again.
Jiang Erye smiled when he saw the little girl's small appearance. His daughter has such a temper from the beginning, she will not let go of what she likes, no matter who wants it, he likes the temper of her daughter. If this cow girl wants it, then she wants it!
Jiang Erye, who didn't want to pay attention to the Wang family, was thinking about how to pull the cow back when Jiang Hou'er jumped in, "Second master, Wang Cheng from the Wang family is here, saying that the old lady of the Wang family misses the two girls and wants to pick them up and live there. day."
What does grandma pick up her and her sister so late? Jiang Muyan, who felt that she had done something wrong, subconsciously grabbed her sister's arm.
Jiang Liu was not afraid to go to the Wang's house. She was just about to ask why she couldn't bring the head cow back from the Liu family's house.
The eldest daughter is just fine, Jiang Erye didn't want to let the little girl go to the Wang's house to be angry, "Didn't I just meet at Liujiazhuang, what should I do?"
"The servant thinks that there may be three things." Zhao Qingling, who was standing behind Jiang Liu, analyzed, "One is for the cattle, the second is for Wang Tian's wife, and the third is for the Foxiang Pavilion yesterday. Drive away, the master of the Wang family will come tomorrow. Let the slaves accompany the two girls on a trip?"
Jiang Liu also said, "Go - ask for a cow!"
The girl is so small, she can't say anything, Jiang Erye is afraid that she will suffer a loss, "Can you come?"
"Yes!" Jiang Liu vowed.
"The girl is sure to succeed! She's not even afraid of Princess Leyang!" After rescuing the second master from the hands of Princess Leyang, the big bug, Jiang's image in Shuqiu's mind grew by eight feet and five feet.
Mrs. Wang sent someone to pick it up, but if she didn't let it go, the second master said to Zhao Qingling, "You and Yan'er go to the northern courtyard to see the old lady, and the old lady agrees to leave before leaving."
"Yes." Zhao Qingling followed the three girls out.
"Wait a minute."
Before the two of them walked out the door, Erye Jiang suddenly said.
Jiang Muyan froze immediately, does her father regret not letting them go?
Zhao Qingling turned around and saluted, waiting for the second master's order.
Jiang Erye raised his knuckled fingers and pressed his temples, "Sister Qingling, what is your real name?"
Is now the time to ask this? Jiang Liu really couldn't figure out his father's brain circuit.
Zhao Qingling responded very quickly and understood the meaning of the second master, "The slave girl was originally called Xiu Qiao. When she was sold into the mansion, she said that Mrs. Tai liked flowers and plants, so she changed it."
Jiang Erye nodded, "I'll use my real name in the future."
"Xiuqiao, thank you second master." Zhao Qingling knelt down and gave a big gift.
After the two left, Jiang Erye held his daughter's chubby claw and explained to her the reason for the name change, "The Wang family has a lot of broken things, and the names of Qingling and your brother are identical. Know how they gossip."
Jiang Liu understood, and sincerely praised her father to think of this level, "Father, smart-ming."
"That's natural!" Jiang Erye laughed.
Daddy's smile is enough to rejuvenate the cold winter and bring a hundred flowers into full bloom. Jiang Liu sighed in his heart, no wonder Princess Leyang fell in love with her father, and her beauty brought disaster.
"Liu'er went to Wang's house, they asked you about seeing your mother in Foxiang Pavilion, what do you say?" Jiang Erye asked his daughter.
Jiang Liu had already told her grandmother that she hadn't seen her mother. Now that Daddy asked this question, he must have something to tell him, so Jiang Liu obediently asked, "Dad - what about -?"
Jiang Erye pinched the little girl's chubby face, smiled and warned seriously, "Just say I saw it, and tell your sister, don't let her say anything."
"Okay." Jiang Liu didn't ask why, and responded directly.
"That's fine with your grandmother. If the rest of the Wang family bully you, you will cry." The girl used to be like a little tiger, but now she has a slow mouth and a slow mouth. Jiang Erye is afraid that she will be bullied by the Wang family's cubs, "Drop a few drops. Tears are enough, don't cry like the Buddha Incense Pavilion, you will have to take bitter medicine after crying like that."
Jiang Liu understood Daddy's concerns and nodded, "Okay."
After getting on the carriage, the wet nurse who changed her name to Xiuqiao took the third girl's hand and whispered, "The slave should not have understood the rules and told the girl, but there are some things that the girl has to know."
Jiang Muyan nodded, "Mother, please speak."
"Liujiazhuang was left by the wife to the two girls. The girls may not remember that when the fruits and vegetables in Zhuangzi matured in previous years, Zhuangzi would bring them to the mansion, and this year's melons and fruits will be sent to the Wang family." Xiuqiao whispered. .
Jiang Muyan nodded, "I know this, my aunt said it was because I was temporarily staying at the Wang's house and my sister was on the mountain, so they sent them to the Wang's house."
Xiuqiao nodded, "That's melons and fruits that ripen in autumn. The two girls are in our house in summer, but only one basket of plums and cherries was sent, which is less than half of what it used to be in previous years. This year's year is not bad."
Jiang Muyan bit her lip, she felt that grandma would not do such a thing.
Jiang kept his dark eyes and listened carefully.
"The slaves speculate that this should be done by the girl's aunt without your grandmother." Xiuqiao whispered, "The girl may not know that Mrs. Wang's maiden brother is not good enough, and life at home is going well. It's not as good as one day, she may be using the things in the village to supplement her parents' family. Also, the accountant of the Rouge Shop was also replaced by the eldest lady. Jiang Houer said that he saw Mrs. Wang's natal brother frequently coming and going. shop…"
If this goes on, the dowry left by the mother will be tampered with by the aunt of the Wang family into her own purse. Jiang Liu's eyes will widen even more, which is not acceptable!
Zhao Xiuqiao said again, "The slaves know that saying these things will make the girls embarrassed, but your grandmother's body and energy are not as good as before. If the girls' dowries are kept under the control of Mrs. Wang, something will happen sooner or later. These are all Mrs. Leaving it for the two girls is the basis for the girls to live a comfortable life after they get married."
Jiang Muyan was a little flustered and asked in a low voice, "Do you want Yan'er to bring back the dowry?"
Zhao Xiuqiao shook her head, "The dowry is all listed on the list. It's an object. The shop and the farmhouse have a lot to do every year, and they're the big ones. When the girl is ten years old, it's time to learn to discipline her servants and take care of the housework. You might as well ask Mrs. Wang asked back the shop and Zhuangzi, and said that you want to use the shop and Zhuangzi to practice your skills."
good idea! Jiang Liu nodded vigorously.
Jiang Muyan was extremely clueless, "But I won't..."
"No one is born with these things, they all learn it little by little." Zhao Xiuqiao whispered, "If you don't want to ask for it now, it's better to get the deeds of the shop and the farmhouse first, so as not to be taken away by Mrs. Wang. Madam Wang coaxed it into her hands."
The deed is always in her hand, even if the aunt wants to sell it, she can't sell it, so it won't happen? Jiang Muyan subconsciously turned to look at her sister.
Sister can save her father from Princess Leyang, and these things can't be difficult for her. Like Shu Qiu, Jiang Muyan now feels that her sister is very, very powerful.
