Chapter 410 Dog bites dog
The granddaughters are so sensible, Mrs. Jiang is very pleased, but she still needs to make new clothes. If they knelt down to greet the two princes in the same clothes that Feng'er had when they got married, they would be told that the Jiang family was in financial trouble and couldn't even make clothes. Although the clothes at Lingluofang in Caiyi Lane are expensive, the materials and styles are the best.
"If you haven't worn it, you will have a chance to wear it in the future. New clothes should still be done." When Mrs. Jiang said this, Jiang Mujin's little face was happy, and Chen's face was a little ugly.
Yan saw his daughter's unpromising appearance, and stared at her to restrain her.
Yazheng continued, "Mother, there are several pieces of fabric gifted by the queen in the yard of my daughter-in-law. We can ask the tailors from Lingluofang to make tailor-made clothes, and then let our sewing room sew the fabrics, so the fabrics do not need to be made in Lingluofang. I bought it, do you think it can be done?"
Hearing what she said, both Chen and Yan were stunned. They all knew that Yazheng's dowry contained the cloth given by the empress, but they didn't expect that it was less than a month after she got married, and she was willing to take it out to make clothes for the children before the things were warm.
If the children can wear clothes made of fabrics given by the empress, it will show the glory of the Jiang family's long-lived marriage, and secondly, it will show the harmony between the top and bottom of the Jiang family. Mrs. Jiang Fei Yue thought the more suitable it was, but she still politely said, "The fabrics given by the palace are better than those from Ling Luofang. You should keep them well, and they will definitely come in handy in the future."
Just when Mr. Chen thought that Yazheng would descend the donkey down the slope, Yazheng said, "Mother, the fabric is for tailoring, so the color and style of the fabric will not look good after a few years."
After saying that, Ya Zheng took Yan'er back to fetch the cloth. Jiang Mujin took the sixth sister's hand and was extremely happy, while Jiang Liu heard his aunt Chen muttering beside him, "Rong'er left early..."
Seeing my aunt talking, she glanced at the second sister. Jiang Liu knew that Auntie must be thinking that if the eldest sister was there, the eldest sister would also be able to get a dress made of the royal cloth. The eldest sister returned to Shaoxing, wouldn't she think about sending her the second sister's new clothes? The two of them are of different sizes, and even if they were sent to the elder sister, they couldn't wear them.
Soon, Yazheng brought four pieces of cloth and put them on the table. After opening the plain silk wrapping the cloth, the true face of the cloth was revealed. Not to mention other people, Mrs. Jiang couldn't put it down, "As expected of the gift from the palace, it's different when you touch it."
Mrs. Yazheng smiled and said, "Look, what's the best way for the children?"
Mrs. Jiang liked everything, so she asked her daughter-in-law, "You have a lot of knowledge, what do you think is suitable?"
Yazheng smiled, "Why don't we invite the tailor from Lingluofang to come over and see what to do?"
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Jiang kept saying okay, and sent someone to Lingluofang to ask for a tailor.
Seeing the sister-in-law's eyes fixed on the fabric, Ya Zheng smiled and said, "This red embroidered brocade is very happy. It is suitable for making pleated skirts for Rong'er. The sister-in-law should have the size of Rong'er, right?"
"Yes, yes!" Chen shi was so happy that he could not close his mouth, and came up and pulled Yazheng for a close meal.
The Jiang family is tailor-made in the mansion, and there has been a lot of rumors outside the mansion that the two princes are coming to the Jiang family to watch the ceremony. Jiang Erye's remarriage was long live, and he received his adopted son to be honored by the prince. This fortune makes people envious and envious, and can't wait to replace it. The three cities even opened a new gambling game, betting on whether Jiang Erye gave birth to a son and whether there would be a reward in the palace.
When everyone was chatting, the Six Guards of the Imperial Guards, the six guards who were stationed in the capital, and the four commanders except Huang Li and Kang Guangju also gathered together, recalling the bits and pieces of Ren Anhan's life, and then came to a unanimous conclusion— They should go to Jiang's house to see Ren Lingsheng. Jiang Jinzong sighed with emotion, "You can see that Ling'er looks very similar to his grandfather.
"That's natural, otherwise General Jiang wouldn't be able to recognize him at a glance at the side of the road." Zhou Hucheng, the general of Youwuwei, said hehe.
Everyone was silent for a while, with understanding smiles on their faces. Jiang Jinzong recognized Ren Lingsheng at Kang'an "at a glance", but it was still possible for outsiders. Which of them did not know the grievances between Ren and Jiang. If Ren Lingsheng is really a bully and a terrifying young man, can he be frightened by you and cry in the street?
Jiang Jinzong didn't seem to see the faces of everyone, and still smiled, "If General Zhou doesn't believe it, you'll know when you see it."
General Zhao Jinming of Youweiwei was the old department of Marquis Pingxi. Marquis Pingxi and Ren Anhan had known each other for many years. Naturally, he was on the side of the Ren family. When he got the chance, of course he would not hesitate to say a few words to Jiang Jinzong, "Thanks to General Jiang, Ling Sheng is talented Into the eyes of Long Live, and sent two princes to watch the ceremony."
Speaking of this, Jiang Jinzong felt very embarrassed, and he couldn't hold his smile. Zuoweiwei general Wang Zhangshan said for him, "A certain heard that the Marquis of Pingxi often entered the palace to teach two princes how to ride and shoot. The two princes are extremely talented, and if Marquis Pingxi taught them hand in hand, they would be able to travel thousands of miles in a day."
The topic turned to the prince, there was no conflict between the generals, and the atmosphere eased down again, but everyone carefully avoided a topic—the purpose of calling them to Beijing for long live—to reduce the military power of the Imperial Army outside Gyeonggi. The four of them do not want to be cut from power, but none of them want to take the lead against Wan Sui, let alone let Wan Sui think that the four of them are conspiring. They eagerly wanted to find out Long Live's plans. The words and deeds of the two princes when they came to the Jiang family to observe the ceremony were a good way to find out the intentions of the Tian family, and this was the reason why they had to go.
There are many people who want to go to Jiang's house to watch the ceremony. They have carefully prepared for the invitation, and those who have not received the invitation will try their best to squeeze in. An Yunchang, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, rode an inconspicuous sedan into Shifeng Alley. Hearing the noise of cars and horses, he gently opened the window of the sedan and glanced out. He ordered, "Go to the back street."
The sedan chair went around the back street and found that there were many cars and horses parked at the back door of Jiang's house. An Yunchang had to order the bearer to go around in a large circle before reaching the clean back door of Meng's house, and sent someone to knock on the door to spread the word.
After a long time, the back door of the Meng family was opened, and the small sedan chair that An Yunchang was riding in was carried directly in. As soon as he entered Meng's house, the news was sent to Jiang Erye. Jiang Erye raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Seeing that the situation is not good, Meng Huizhou is huddled in the mansion and wants to be alone. How can An Yunchang let him do his best, let's wait and see, it's about to start dog-eat-dog."
Jiang Hou'er laughed a few times, and then said, "Second Master, Meng Yajiao has returned to the city, and returned to Meng's house from the main entrance of Shifeng Lane half an hour ago."
Jiang Erye nodded, "Tell the old lady this news and let her be on guard."
As busy as the Jiang family was at this time, the Meng family was as bad. After losing his job as a judge at Dali Temple due to Li Yanguang's case, Meng Er walked around and found that there were many yamen in Kang'an City, but there was no place for him. Although Meng Huizhou, who was downgraded to the Ministry of Punishment, escaped, but An Yunchang, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment who intervened in the case, failed to get out of his body and was downgraded to the officer of the Ministry of Punishment.
It wasn't this that An Yunchang was most anxious to get angry with. He came to find Meng Huizhou in a hurry today because of the old slave with scars on his face next to Jiang Ling.
