Chapter 77: poison
Chapter 77 Poison
Yayin returned to the mansion with Erye Jiang, who was carrying a large burden in his arms, and the family's heart was finally relieved.
Knowing that Jiang Bao and Jiang Hou'er had returned, Jiang Erye grinned, handed the firecracker to Ya Yin, stepped forward to salute his mother, "Mother, Er is back."
Mrs. Jiang was so angry that she grabbed her son and patted her, "What did your mother say? You have to go out, you have to go out!"
Seeing that Jiang Er Ye was beaten, Chen shi kept applauding, hoping that her mother-in-law would be beaten harder and harder; Jiang Muyan felt embarrassed and wanted to hide in the piano room immediately; Jiang Liu held a small fist and really wanted to go up to her father A few times, this uneasy guy!
"Mother, it's New Year's Eve today, stop beating, we have to ask for a good sign, don't we?" Although the mother's beating didn't hurt, but in front of the whole family, Jiang Erye felt very embarrassed.
Being beaten and scolded on New Year's Eve means that you will be beaten and scolded every year next year. Mrs. Jiang dragged her son's son into the house and asked, "Aren't your eldest brother and the children wronged?"
Chen shi asked, "Have they eaten the food delivered? Is it cold in the prison, is your brother's injury any better?"
The grievance must have been suffered, Jiang Erye smiled and said, "Although the prison is not as comfortable as at home, the eldest brother and the two children are all fine. The eldest brother takes medicine every day on his shoulders, and his arms are already able to move."
That's good, that's good! Chen shi folded his hands together, and couldn't help but ask, "Second brother, your eldest brother, they will be back tomorrow, right?"
Mrs. Jiang raised her head and glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law. Mrs. Chen covered her mouth and knew that she had said something wrong. There were not many people in the family who knew about tomorrow's palace banquet.
Mrs. Jiang asked the third daughter-in-law to take the children to eat snacks on the warm couch in the outhouse, and then said to the second son, "You go and change into clean clothes first, and then tell us about tonight's events in detail when you come back."
Jiang Huai also came out with the second brother and asked in a low voice, "Second brother, is your leg hurt?"
The boneless Jiang Erye put his arm on the third brother's shoulder and complained, "I was driven by a dog from the West City to Taipingfang, and my whole body hurts right now."
That's far enough, Jiang Huai said quickly, "I'll take a bath later, and I'll give my second brother medicated oil to rub."
Jiang Erye smiled, "Then I'll use you. I brought back a lot of fireworks from Meng's house. Later, you can take the children to set them off. Let's go to the bad luck."
Jiang Huai quickly asked, "How much is left for them?"
"a lot of."
Jiang Huai was disappointed.
"It's all watered."
Jiang Huai hehe.
The fireworks of the Jiang family went to the sky, and the sound spread to the Meng family. Meng Huizhou and his two sons turned to look at the window paper that was lit up at the same time, and the corners of their mouths curled up with the same sarcasm.
Meng San snorted, "Five-hundred pennies for five-color smoke cannons, they're making a swollen face and making a fat man! Dad, let's go too!"
Fireworks and firecrackers are set off on the New Year's Eve. Whoever is the loudest and most lively, indicates who will have the best luck next year. In previous years, in order to show low-key and respect, the Meng family only set off the firecrackers after the Jiang family had finished. This year, Meng San bought a lot of energy, just waiting to raise his eyebrows tonight.
Meng Huizhou didn't say a word, but Meng Er said, "What are you anxious about, let them make a fuss first, and let's let them go when it's almost midnight."
"Second brother's head is still easy to use!" Jiang's family's firecrackers are less and less, and the New Year's noise will definitely not be able to cover their own home!
Jiang Er, you wait!
Meng San hehe.
When the time came, the sound of firecrackers from the Jiang family rang out, and Xiao Jiangliu, who was drowsy in the warm pavilion, was woken up, and followed his sisters and brothers to the main room to pay New Year's greetings to his grandmother.
Mrs. Jiang gave the New Year money, and then gave the children and grandchildren up after giving instructions and blessings as usual. Afterwards, the servants of the Jiang family knelt down in a large area in the yard, wishing the master New Year's greetings.
Mrs. Jiang called out and said that everyone worked hard, and everyone was given a reward for one month's wages.
The mansion was embarrassed, and there was still so much happy money. The servants all smiled and thanked them one after another.
The elder brother was not at home, so Jiang Erye called Jiang Siyao, "Dalang, go light the firecrackers."
Jiang Siyao took the second and fourth brothers to the osmanthus tree in the courtyard and lit the fuse with incense. The little girls in the Jiang family covered their ears with their hands one after another. Little Jiang Liu, who was half a beat late, was covered by his father's warm hands when he heard the crackling of firecrackers. Jiang Liu's eyes widened as he watched the firecrackers covered with branches flashing one after another, the fiery red paper scraps falling one after another, and the ground trembled.
Thousands of firecrackers were fired in unison, the night sky of the land of China was lit up, and the breath was full of sulfur. Jiang Liu, who grew up in a city where firecrackers are banned, felt for the first time what is called "fire tree silver flower" and "sound shocking China".
is too shocking, too beautiful! Jiang Liu cheered and danced with his brothers and sisters.
Jiang Erye was afraid that the little girl with weak legs and feet would fall, so he picked her up and said loudly, "Liu'er will be safe and well this year!"
Jiang Liu was overjoyed, hugged his father's head and kissed him hard, "Father, my heart-thinking-things-finished!"
Jiang Huai approached the second brother and gloated, "Second brother, there is no fire over there!"
That's of course, unless they light the yard, there's a ghostly fire! Jiang Erye laughed loudly, and held his daughter in circles in the yard, scaring Jiang Liu to the ground.
In Meng's courtyard, looking at the firecrackers that were soaked with water and frozen, Meng Huizhou's face was darker than the bottom of the pot. Meng San was so angry that he beat his chest and paused, "The five-color smoke cannons are gone, Jiang Er must have done it! Damn it, I can't spare him!"
"Shut up!" Meng Huizhou scolded angrily.
The butler of the Meng family said cautiously, "Master, the villain has already sent someone to buy shopping in the West Market, and he will be back soon..."
"Trash!" Time has passed, what's the use of buying it back! Meng Huizhou kicked the housekeeper over with one kick and turned back angrily.
Seeing that the owner of the house was angry, the Meng family all froze in the courtyard, not knowing what to do. Madam Meng calmly ordered everyone to leave before returning to the house and gently persuaded, "Master, sleep for a while, it's time to prepare to enter the palace later."
The palace banquet was held in the morning, but as a courtier, Meng Huizhou had to enter the palace to worship at Mao Shi. But at this time, Meng Huizhou couldn't sleep. He called his second son into the study and asked in a low voice, "Are things ready?"
"Ready."
Jiang Song has been imprisoned for the past few days, but the Meng family has failed several times. Yesterday, when Jiang Er visited the prison, the servants of the Meng family heard that the servants of the Jiang family wanted to deliver meals to the prison at five watch, so Meng Er planned a poison plan—taking advantage of the night, he sent someone to pretend to be servants of the Jiang family and mixed poison into Jiang Song. The dumplings destroyed the bodies of the three Jiang family members.
Meng Huizhou slowly turned the teacup in his hand, "I want them not to get out of the prison!"
"I mean this." Meng Er's voice also seemed to be poisoned.
Five is the darkest and coldest time of the night. In the past, people were sound asleep at this time, but today it is very lively. The sound of cannons rang out from the doors of the houses, the children got up and put on new clothes, and the stove in the kitchen was booming and steaming.
The first pot of dumplings cooked by the Jiang family in the New Year was packed into a food box and sent to the Xicheng Bingmasi prison.
Today's plus update is delivered.
