Chapter 185: Li Dai Tao Zong
Chapter 185 Li Dai Tao Zong
Seeing Fifth Sister bit her tongue, Jiang Murong couldn't care less about being shy, and hurriedly leaned over and asked, "Open your mouth, let me see if the bite is broken?"
Jiang Mujin opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue, Jiang Murong was relieved when she saw that there was no bloodshot, and hummed, "It's not broken! It's a pity, if you bite off a bit of your tongue with more strength, you won't be called a long-tongued woman! "
"Hey..." Jiang Liu couldn't help but gloated.
It's not your fault! Jiang Mujin glared at Sixth Sister, reluctantly complained vaguely, "Eldest sister bullied me..."
"Okay, I'm bullying you, take a break." Asking the maid to change a colder cup of tea for Wumei, Jiang Murong turned her head and asked Jiang Muyan, "Sanmei, are we going to learn the piano next year?"
After returning from Shaoxing, Jiang Murong found that while playing the piano, she was left behind by the second and third sisters. But learning the piano is a legitimate opportunity to go out. She is looking forward to the opportunity to go out, and she does not want to go to the piano shop to be abused, so she is very conflicted.
Jiang Muyan said softly, "Grandmother asked us to pay New Year's greetings to Madam after the new year, let's see if Madam is willing to teach us."
"Madam likes you and the second sister so much, she is definitely willing to teach you." Jiang Murong's tone was sour.
When it comes to learning the piano, Jiang Liu and Jiang Mujin both pretend to be wooden figures, and they don’t say anything and don’t listen. Jiang Muyan smiled, "If the eldest sister is willing to spend as much time as me practicing the piano, she will definitely be better than me. You can see that the second sister plays the most, and her piano skills are the best."
Scholar Jiang Muyan has to admit that now the second sister's piano skills are better than hers.
"Third sister is more and more able to talk now..." Jiang Murong sighed and continued, "Second sister can't wait to sleep in Dicui Tang, her fingers are red and swollen, I feel pain for her. "
"If you eat hard and suffer, you will become a superior person." Jiang Mujin said vaguely, she could understand why the second sister worked so hard. Although Jiang Mujin is a direct descendant, her father is a concubine, and she gets along well with her sisters in the house, but when she goes out, she becomes a dwarf. The second sister's situation is even worse than hers. No matter how beautiful or sensible she is, she is only the uncle's concubine. , She practiced her piano skills so hard that she wanted to make a name for herself, so that she could add some weight to her marriage later.
However, how is it so easy to be a human being?
The four little sisters were silent for a moment, Jiang Mujin endured the pain again, and began to gossip, "Eldest sister, brother Li Zhengqiu is coming, are you happy?"
Jiang Murong's face immediately turned red, "What nonsense, what if this word spreads out!"
Jiang Mujin chuckled, "There are only four of us here, who will spread the word? Can you tell us about you and brother Zhengqiu?"
"If you talk nonsense again, I won't talk to you!" Jiang Murong said in a frightened manner.
Jiang Mujin is not worried, "eldest sister, just talk about it."
Jiang Murong bit her lip shyly, "We haven't even spoken, what can happen!"
said that there is nothing to say, but the expression of the elder sister has made it clear. Jiang Liu could see that she liked this marriage, and she didn't know what her uncle and aunt thought.
Finally, looking forward to her husband's return, Mrs. Chen diligently stepped forward to help him change clothes, talking about today's events.
After changing the official uniform, Jiang Song took the letter from the Li family and read it again, "They set off on the 16th of the first lunar month, and will arrive at the end of February at the latest."
"Isn't that true!" Mrs. Chen felt unhappy, "How can anyone travel in the first month!"
They were so anxious, they didn't want to come to the door before the second brother Chunwei, and settle the marriage! When I was in Shaoxing, I saw that this family was very honest and loyal, but I didn't expect it to be calculated!
Jiang Song looked at his wife, who was thinking about it in her heart, and smiled, "Which family's son did Madam like for Rong'er?"
Chen's eyes lit up, "Master, what do you think of the Chailin Canal in the Jiashun Palace?"
Chailin Canal? Jiang Song thought about it carefully, "Chai Yikuan's son?"
"It's him! This child will be sixteen when he is 16 years old, and he has not yet gotten married. The concubine went to Changtian Temple a few days ago, and happened to meet him and her mother. Chai Linqu looks like a tiger and looks kind-hearted, Chai Er Madam is also very friendly, she also took the initiative to talk to the concubine, and invited the concubine to have tea and listen to the play."
After his wife Barabara finished talking about the benefits of the Jiashun palace, Jiang Song asked, "Why does Madam think Madam Chai Er is so polite to you?"
"Because the second brother has been appreciated by Long Live, they all feel that the second brother must be a popular person in front of Long Live in the future." Chen Shi smiled extremely happily, because she also thought so.
Jiang Song nodded, "Madam is right, because of the second brother."
"Because what happened to the second brother? Rong'er is his own niece, and the second brother treats Rong'er, but she is no worse than his own daughter!" Chen shi immediately said.
Jiang Song nodded, "Mrs. is very right. If the Li family's boy fails, the madam will discuss with the mother whether the Chai family can marry."
Chen shi whispered, "Li Zhengqiu is also very good, just..."
"What is it?" Jiang Song sat down to eat tea.
Chen stammered and said what was in his heart, "It's just...I think...Li Zhengqiu is good, but his temperament is more suitable for Zhenger..."
"Crack!" Jiang Song put the teacup he picked up on the table, although his voice was not loud, it made Chen shiver. Jiang Song looked at his wife quietly and asked, "What did your wife say? My husband didn't hear clearly."
In the evening, Jiang Muyan and her sister were lying on the bed and whispering, "When my aunt was in Shaoxing, she made a verbal engagement with the Li family, and when Li Zhengqiu came to meet her uncle, as long as the uncle did not object, the marriage was really settled."
Jiang Liu was also interested in this, "Sister, do you think uncle would agree?"
"Uncle re-confidence, as long as Li Zhengqiu is not bad, uncle will not object." Jiang Muyan whispered, "If aunt doesn't want to form this marriage, she must think of something. Sister, did you see that the second sister is holding When Qin came back, Auntie's eyes kept on her."
Jiang Liu widened his peach blossom eyes, "What did your sister mean?"
Jiang Muyan nodded lightly, "Auntie Xu is trying to beat Li Dai Tao Zong's idea."
"Uncle will not agree!" Jiang Liu was very sure.
Jiang Muyan whispered, "Uncle will not agree, but I don't think Aunt Zhang will object."
The Li family may not be a good marriage for the eldest sister, but it is a good thing for the second sister. Although Li Zhengqiu's father is not a big official, he is a fat poor man with real power. Li Zhengqiu is still a direct descendant, and his character must be not bad. If not, his aunt would not approve of this marriage.
Having said that, the more Jiang Liu thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. Jiang Muyan also said, "The eldest sister is clearly moved by Li Zhengqiu. If Auntie really wants to give the second sister to Li Zhengqiu, the eldest sister and the second sister will not be able to meet each other in the future."
Jiang Liu quickly asked, "Sister, what should we do then?"
Jiang Muyan pursed her lips, "I can understand what I can understand, and so can the second sister. Let's do nothing. Go to sleep, we have to get up early to go to the garden tomorrow morning."
