Chapter 242: slap in the face
Chapter 242 Slap in the face
When finally coaxed his mother out, Erye Jiang returned to the west courtyard and lay on the bamboo bed in the courtyard and didn't want to move. The clever Jiang Houer immediately ran over and fanned Erye.
Jiang Erye snorted, and Jiang Houer immediately put down his fan and beat Erye's legs, "Er Master, a new batch of stones has arrived in Nanshi Shichang, can you choose another stone bed?"
Thinking of the stone bed that was split in half by Huyan Tu, Erye Jiang drew a small portrait of Huyan in his heart and put it on the target, and then shot an arrow into his deep eye socket, which made him feel comfortable." You go to pick, you are busy, how can you have time to spare."
"Yes." Jiang Hou'er was most aware of the second master's likes, and immediately responded happily. Just as he was about to say a few interesting things to make the second master smile, he saw Jiang Bao walked in quickly.
"Second Master, Master Guo is here."
"Invite him to the study." Erye Jiang stood up, adjusted his clothes, and walked out. When he saw Guo Jingping, Erye Jiang sighed. Guo Jingping was still wearing the cool shirt that had been washed white. Those who knew him said he was the champion, but those who didn't knew he thought he was a farmer who came to the city to work in slack farming.
"Second brother, the younger brother has been busy attending the banquet for the past few days and has never had the opportunity to thank the second brother." Guo Jingping clasped his fists and bowed deeply, "If the second brother hadn't helped him, the younger brother would never be today. ."
Jiang Erye nodded, "Don't be polite to your brother, are you ready to go back to your hometown?"
"Let's go the day after tomorrow, the younger brother came here to say goodbye to the second brother, and secondly to ask the second brother to help take care of the male son." Guo Jingping won the champion, and will follow the officer from Fujian Road all the way back to his hometown to praise the official, and take care of the family. After four months, he will return to Kang'an to take up his post. Four months is not too short to say, but the journey from Kang'an to Qingxi is a long way, and it will take three months on the way back and forth. At this time, it is extremely hot. Although Guo Jingping doesn't want to be separated from his son, he is even more reluctant to follow him to suffer this. Bitter, "My younger brother sent Xiongzi to study at Qingjin Academy, and let him live in the academy. He paid enough money for him, so he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking. If there was anything urgent, the younger brother asked him to ask Jiang Ling to find the second brother. ?"
In Kang'an City, the person Guo Jingping trusted most was the second brother Jiang, and only by entrusting his son to the second brother could Guo Jingping be able to go on the road with peace of mind.
Jiang Erye nodded, "He doesn't know where he lives, so what's the point of living in the academy, let him come over and eat and live with Ling'er."
Guo Jingping shook his head, "I'm not afraid to trouble the second brother, but I'm afraid of causing trouble to my aunt. When the male son is here, he has to worry about his aunt's food, clothing, and travel. The younger brother feels sorry for him."
"I don't need my mother to handle this matter, Yan'er and Liu'er can handle it, you can rest assured." Guo Nanxiong is sensible, but he only needs to add a pair of chopsticks.
The second brother said so, Guo Jingping was no longer polite. After thanking the second brother, he sighed, "It's not going to go on like this. The younger brother has to marry another woman to take care of the male son and take care of the housework."
After winning the champion, the family had guests every day, and the father and son were busy with each other. Guo Jingping felt that it was too hard for his son to manage the housework at such a young age.
Mentioning women, Jiang Erye's head hurts, "Have you made plans for remarriage?"
Guo Jingping replied, "There is an old scholar in Qingxi County, her daughter died of her husband in June last year. My younger brother will go back and see if she has remarried. If not, my younger brother will ask someone to talk to her."
"What's different about that woman?" He is the champion of the new division, and there are a lot of good girls waiting for him to choose, but he chooses a widow. There is something going on here! Jiang Erye's peach blossom pupils were shining, and his fan was shaking very diligently.
Guo Jingping scratched his head naively, "When my younger brother was in the **** bureau, he once escorted their family away, and the girl hadn't married yet. Their family was good-natured and would not look down on people because of their status. Later, the girl married. Later, the younger brother and Xiongzi went to the city to run errands and met her. At that time, a child fell down, she went to help him, and bought a fried cake for the child. Xiongzi said that if his mother was alive, it must be like this. "
"You don't think she is a widow?" Jiang Erye asked.
"My little brother is a widower, so why do you despise others? Besides, the purpose of marrying a wife is to make a living. My little brother is already a three-year-old man. What is the matter? Now that you have a son, marrying her back is not to inherit the lineage, it is better to be older, sensible, and able to run a family." Guo Jingping said honestly.
Snapped! He is also a widower and despises widows.
Crack, snap! He was two years older than Guo Jingping, and he ran three times faster than him.
Crack, snap, snap! I don’t have a biological son, so marrying again is to pass on the lineage.
Guo Jingping said, Erye Jiang felt that he had been slapped several times in the face, and was very upset, so he drove him out and sat alone in the room in a daze.
After Jiang Song returned to the mansion, he saw his second brother sitting in the sunset with an aggrieved face, and asked, "Is something difficult?"
"No." Jiang Erye stood up and told the story of Guo Jingping's arrival.
"You did the right thing, it's more suitable for that child to be with Ling'er than to live in the academy." Jiang Song finished, and added, "Guo Jingping sent two carts of things, which are still in the front yard, Uncle Hou doesn't know what to do. Disposal, what can he say?"
Guo Jingping didn't bring anything until he brought it over. Jiang Erye said, "It should be that the gifts he received these days are not easy to bring back, so just leave it to the third brother."
On the second day, Guo Nanxiong was sent over by Guo Jingping. The little guy, with his new hat, new clothes, and new shoes from head to toe, followed his father calmly and saluted Mrs. Jiang.
Seeing the new clothes on Guo Nanxiong's body, Jiang Liu touched her brother's shoulder and asked quietly, "Brother Xiongzi's clothes, did you help pick them out?" His clothes, at first glance, were her brother's taste. .
Jiang Ling tilted his head and whispered, "He chose it himself."
That is Jin Zhu Zhechi, brother Xiongzi is always with his brother, imitating his appearance, Jiang Liu smiled and rolled his eyes. At this moment, Mrs. Jiang had finished talking to the father and son of the Guo family, and asked the grandchildren to come forward and get to know Guo Nanxiong.
Guo Nanxiong is very familiar with the children of Jiang Erbo's family, but it is the first time he has met the children of Jiang Erbo and Sanbo's family. After reciting the size of the annual rings, a group of little guys quickly got to know each other. Jiang Ling took him to the study in the front yard to see the room he wanted to live in.
Jiang Ling originally wanted to live in a room with Guo Nanxiong, so that his father would not come to disturb him from time to time to sleep, but his father said that he would not let the guests crowd with him, so he had the room next to Jiang Ling packed up for Guo Nanxiong to live in, and all the supplies were arranged. like a few of them.
There are only him and Jiang Ling here, Guo Nanxiong is no longer holding on, and he sits on the stool without speaking. Jiang Ling knew that he couldn't bear his father, so he patted him on the shoulder, "Tomorrow I will go to see your father with you, and then we will go to the academy together."
At this moment, a small head wearing pink and tender pearl flowers appeared from the door, and looked into the room with black eyes, Guo Nanxiong's smile went straight to the bottom of his heart, and he reached the door in two steps, "Liu'er sister! "
Jiang Liu also smiled sweetly, "Brother Xiongzi, I have something to ask of you."
Guo Nanxiong immediately raised his chest, "Tell me, I'll do it!"
Jiang Liu took out a small purse and handed it to Guo Nanxiong, "Can you help me hand over the silver to Uncle Guo, and trouble him to go to Dongyue Temple to add incense and money when he returns to Fengshan in Qingxi?"
Jiang Liu wanted to give it to Uncle Guo himself, but Uncle Guo kept talking to the elders. Jiang Liu couldn't get the chance to speak, so he ran to find Guo Nanxiong.
"Save your money to buy candy, and I'll ask my father to add it to you." Guo Nanxiong readily responded.
"This is the money I earned, and I use this to show my sincerity." As for how he earned it, Jiang Liu didn't know.
Guo Nanxiong was about to reach for the money, but Jiang Ling took the purse. He poured out the silver and handed it to Guo Nanxiong, "Take it."
After Guo Nanxiong left, Jiang Ling gave the purse to his sister and warned, "Don't give the purse, handkerchief, and words you wrote to others in the future."
The things used by boudoir girls flow out to the outside, and they will be used by people with a heart to make a fuss as a love affair and ruin their reputation. Jiang Liu explained, "Brother, this purse was embroidered by the embroidered mother in the house."
"No matter who embroidered it, it is now your purse." Jiang Ling insisted.
"…Um."
