Chapter 119: Come and kowtow to your parents
Chapter 119 Come and kowtow to my parents
After grandmother and second uncle left, Mrs. Jiang didn't go to the west courtyard. She only called her third granddaughter and asked, "Have you checked the dowry?"
"That's right, except for the cloth, everything on the list was sent back." Jiang Muyan replied.
Mrs. Jiang nodded, "Except for the ones you want to put in the room, the rest are locked in the west courtyard warehouse, and you hold the key yourself. The silver taels should also be kept, and the shop and the farmhouse will be taken care of by the appropriate people. If you don't understand, You can ask your grandmother."
In order to avoid suspicion, Mrs. Jiang did not want to touch her daughter-in-law's dowry.
After returning to the West Courtyard, Jiang Muyan pulled her younger sister, who lived among the cages, and stopped in front of a bonsai with a white jade relief mountain that was about a foot high, and said in a low voice, "There is one less peaches on this white jade relief mountain. There were originally six, my sister. look here."
Jiang Liu followed her sister's fingers and looked carefully, and saw that there was indeed something missing on the two jade leaves of a small peach branch on Baiyu Mountain, "Sister-sister-tell-tell-two-uncle-isn't there?"
Jiang Muyan shook her head gently, "Second Uncle should know?"
Jiang Liu didn't know if the second uncle knew, but she knew that the dowry had been taken back, and it was impossible to find Yutao again, "Sister-sister, other-he-dowry-doss-have-question-question-? ?"
"Probably not." Jiang Muyan's eyes were full of joy, "Mother's dowry is back, we have an extra 1,500 taels of silver, sister!"
"Sister-sister!" Jiang Liu cooperated with the young lady and rejoiced together.
"After we collect the dowry, let's go to Dicuitang to play the piano."
Ginger stay…
"Industry is good at diligence and leisure, we haven't played the piano and read for three days." Jiang Muyan regained her former look after gaining confidence, "We not only need to read good books, but also learn to manage shops and learn to make up for women's red. Mother's wedding dress..."
Jiang Liu hurriedly reminded his sister, "Sister, Shu-Xia-Yi-jia, what should-how-what-do?"
In addition to sending back the dowry, the Wang family also sent back three members of Shuxia's family, who are now escorted in the firewood room in the front yard.
The look in Jiang Muyan's eyes faded, and she discussed with her sister, "I want them to go, will my sister say yes?"
"Go-go-where?" Jiang Liu asked.
Jiang Muyan said, "Return the contract to them and let them go wherever they want."
Shu Xia came to serve her sister at the age of seven. Jiang Liu knew that her sister could not bear to let her down, but it was definitely not acceptable to deal with it this way. She turned to look at the nurse.
Nanny Zhao said, "Girl, the slave girl has a lot to say."
Jiang Muyan nodded.
"The state-owned legal family has family rules. If the girl forgives the three of them lightly, and the managers and guys in the shop and the farm will follow the same example, what should the girl do?"
Mother also said that everything must be done according to the rules, Jiang Muyan bit her lip, "According to the mother, what should I do about this?"
Nanny Zhao didn't want to say it directly, so she only suggested, "Miss, why don't you ask the third lady, the third lady should have some ideas."
Jiang Muyan nodded, "When I was at my grandmother's house, my third aunt protected me and my sister several times. Yan'er should go and thank you."
Since it is a thank you, you cannot go empty-handed. Jiang Muyan brought a box of high-quality Sudong angelica, and went to see the third aunt with her sister.
Mr. Yan shook his head after listening to the third niece's plan, "The location of Xuexia evening is good, except for the flowers in the house, they shouldn't only earn a few dozen taels of silver. The two of them must have swallowed a lot of running water."
That's right! Jiang Liu nodded, she sent fifty sets of nail clips to Xuexia Wan, the Wang family took thirty sets, and the remaining ten sets were taken by Wang Ke's wife to sell or do favors, based on this ratio , they are greedy.
Jiang Muyan asked, "Aunt San, because the account books in the shop are not accurate, how can we know how much money they took from the shop?"
Mrs Yan smiled, "Why is Yan'er so confused! Their deeds are in your hands, and their lives are yours. What account book do you want? You just call them in, and there are two options—or take three. Hundred taels of silver to buy their lives, or send them to the yamen."
"Three hundred taels?" Jiang Muyan widened her eyes in surprise.
Mrs Yan, who followed her husband in business, nodded, "They can definitely get it. Do you know why Shuxia stayed outside the mansion for more than a month after Wang Ke's old mother died a few days ago? Wang Ke and his wife came to her door. My son-in-law is also looking for a way for their family. The third aunt knows that you have a good heart. If you rely on the third aunt and pay for your life, you will immediately sell their family far away to avoid future troubles! "
After the little sisters returned to the West Courtyard, Jiang Muyan hesitated for a while, but still couldn't make up her mind, and asked her sister, "What should I do?"
"Listen-san-aunt-, let the monkey-er-brother-go-do it." Since the elder sister recited the love with Shu Xia's master and servant and wanted to spare them once, after taking the money back, let Jiang Hou'er put it away. People frightened honestly and drove them out of Kang'an City.
Each line of business has its own rules. After Wang Ke backed the master, no shop in Kang'an City would hire him to do things. They have no money, no land and real estate, and it is impossible for them to settle in Kang'an City, where an inch of land is expensive.
After solving the Wang Ke family, the most important thing is to find the right person to take care of the snowy evening.
After the little sisters discussed with their elder brother, Jiang Ling called Uncle Qiu, who saw the dragon but not the end, and asked him to help. In addition to Xuexia Wan, I also asked Uncle Qiu to help take care of one or two.
Jiang Qiu would not refuse what the young master ordered, he complied and asked, "The ancestral hall has been built, when will the young master come to worship?"
In less than two months, the ancestral hall was built so quickly? Now that my father is not in the mansion, it is up to him to decide when he wants to go. Jiang Ling thought about it, "On the 16th, my sister has finished learning the piano, so let's go."
Jiang Qiu was surprised, "Master wants to bring Sixth Girl with you?"
This is a matter of course, Jiang Ling nodded, "She is my sister, of course she will go too."
Ginger Qiu…
Hearing that her brother was going to take her to pay homage to her biological parents, Jiang Liu nodded, "We-we-want-buy-sacrifice-product-?"
Jiang Ling shook his head, "These Uncle Qiu will be ready, sister don't tell others, neither can Jiang Muyan."
No one in the mansion knew about my elder brother's life experience, so of course I can't say, Jiang Liu should stay.
On the 16th day, Jiang finished studying the piano, and was taken away by her brother on the grounds of taking her to buy pen and ink. After getting on the carriage, Jiang Liu asked, "Brother-brother-after-noon-no-use-back-shu-yuan?"
Jiang Ling shook his head, "Learn to learn riding and archery, I don't have to waste time with a martial artist who is not as good as me."
Ginger stay…
Brother, you are so crazy, does my father know?
The ancestral hall was built in a village called Renjiazhuang, ten miles east of Kang'an City. Nine out of ten people in this village have the surname Ren. Although they have nothing to do with the Ren family in Biancheng, they are the same surname after all, and they were considered a family five hundred years ago.
After choosing the place, Uncle Qiu sent a man named Ren Jingyi to buy a yard in the village and settle down. He donated money to the head of the Ren family, and sent the tablets of Jiang Ling's grandparents and parents to the Ren family ancestral hall. , worshipped by the incense of Renjia Village.
When he arrived at the Renjia ancestral hall in the village, Jiang Ling went in to worship as the nephew of Ren Jingyi, while Jiang Liu looked in the carriage outside the ancestral hall.
She thinks that Uncle Qiu is too smart - the ancestral hall is ready-made, the ancestors are ready-made, and the people who guard the ancestral hall are ready-made, as long as you put the tablets of the elder brother's grandparents and parents, and live together!
No wonder it only took more than a month for Uncle Qiu to do it, but the patriarch of Renjia Village was too cautious in his work. Did he ask the details of the Ren family who wanted to recognize their ancestors and return to the clan? Do the tablets placed in the ancestral hall write the real names of the elder brother's ancestors and fathers?
After worshiping in the ancestral hall, Jiang Ling took his sister and followed Ren Jingyi home, and placed offerings in the small Buddhist hall behind the courtyard to worship again.
Jiang Ling knelt on the ground upright and kowtowed three times, then turned to call his sister who was still looking at the tablet in a daze, "Sister, come here and kowtow to our grandparents and parents."
