Chapter 457 Jiang Erye's Reasoning Ability
Er Ye Jiang chewed the fish **** and smiled slyly.
Jiang Huai said immediately, "Second brother was caught!"
"Those who know me are my third brother." Jiang Erye said after drinking another bowl of soup, "When the Meng family was raided a few days ago, only four boxes of gold and silver treasures were found, and I was the first to think of him. It is possible to hide the family wealth elsewhere. For someone like Meng Huizhou, can you rest assured to leave the money in the hands of outsiders?"
Jiang Song and Jiang Huai shook their heads together.
Jiang Erye became more and more complacent, "I have long heard that some corrupt officials are afraid that they will be wiped out after the boat capsizes. Zhou may also have a son. He secretly put the family wealth in the hands of that son."
"Why isn't it at Meng Xunyi's place?" Jiang Song asked, adding a few more fish **** to his second brother.
Er Jiang drank the soup, Jiang Huai said, "Because it's in Meng Xunyi's hands, Meng Er and Meng San will definitely quit after they find out."
Makes sense, Jiang Song nodded.
"I asked my mother, and my mother said that Meng Huizhou's two concubines were killed by his wife, so this son must be his stolen child. If he secretly gave birth, where would he hide his son?" Jiang Erye After selling a lawsuit, seeing the eldest brother and the third brother staring at him, he continued triumphantly, "I asked Jiang Ming to investigate where Meng Huizhou has gone out of Kang'an City over the years, and found that he has been there for more than ten years. Three times in Fugou County. I guessed that the Meng family’s stealing child might be in Fugou County.”
is reasonable, the second brother is getting more and more promising, Jiang Song nodded in relief.
"Fugou County is not small, and I don't know where Meng Huizhou went. So I used a local method to send a letter to the Fugou County magistrate, asking him to collect the rich households surnamed Meng in the county into a list of book, and send it to Xicheng Soldiers and Horses as soon as possible." Jiang Erye paused and looked at his eldest brother and third brother.
Jiang Huai immediately raised his thumb, "Second brother Gaoming!"
Jiang Song asked, "How can you be sure that the surname is Meng?"
"Brother thinks that with Meng Huizhou's temperament, he can make his son change his surname?"
No, Jiang Song and Jiang Huai shook their heads.
"When the roster of rich households surnamed Meng in Fugou County was in my hands, I counted more than 40 households. But I only scanned it once and guessed which one might be Meng Huizhou's stolen child!" After Jiang Erye finished speaking, he looked at the eldest brother and the third brother again.
Jiang Huai immediately urged, "How did the second brother find out?"
Jiang Song stared, "Don't tell me soon!"
"There is a family whose father is deceased and the mother is still alive. The owner of the family is only in his thirties, and his surname is Meng Mingchengye. Meng Chengye has two sons: Meng Shaokun and Meng Shaopeng. I can tell it is this family at a glance, because the names of these three are from Meng Huizhou. !" After Jiang Erye finished speaking, he stared at the eldest brother and the third brother again.
Ginger Pine…
Jiang Huai raised two thumbs, "Second brother Gao Ming! These three names are linked to the Meng family! Meng Huizhou's best time to save face is to check the names of his children and grandchildren and think about them. I just remembered it again, so everyone is so awkward!"
"That's right!" Jiang Erye and his third brother touched bowls.
The two brothers looked at the elder brother with their bowls in their hands, and Jiang Song said, "You are a blind cat and a dead mouse, it's all about luck."
Jiang Huai smiled and touched his bowl to the elder brother's bowl, "But the second elder brother touched it right, which means that luck is on our side."
That's right, Jiang Song touched his bowl with the two brothers', and the three brothers laughed. After drinking the soup, Jiang Song said, "Tomorrow is the fourth day of the fourth lunar month. Let's put everything else aside and prepare for the adoption of sons in the future. We will welcome the two princes into the mansion, and there is no room for sloppiness."
"Yes."
"Yes."
After the three brothers separated, Jiang Erye returned to the west courtyard. Seeing that the light in the main landlord's room was still on, he quickly entered the room, only to find that Yazheng was already asleep. In the past, no matter how late he came back, Yazheng would always wait. She slept so deeply today, probably because she was frightened at Hanshan Temple yesterday. Jiang Erye couldn't bear to go to bed to disturb her good sleep, so he turned and went out of the house to find his son to sleep with.
As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Ling woke up. Seeing his father walking in, Jiang Ling thought he knew that he had been waiting for him for the past two days, so he came to see him, got up and lit the lamp, and asked, "Did my father just come back, what time is it now?"
"It's almost time to be ugly." Jiang Erye yawned.
His father came back so late, which moved Jiang Ling very much. He got up and said, "Father is tired, you should go back to rest first, and I will go to find you tomorrow morning, and there is no hurry at this time..."
Before Jiang Ling could finish speaking, Erye Jiang lay on the bed and closed his eyes.
Jiang Ling had a wheatish face and stared at his father for a while before he swung out the candle angrily and climbed into the back of the bed to sleep. When the **** crowing, Jiang Ling woke up, stared at his sleeping father for a while, then got up lightly to read in the study, and then went to the garden for morning exercises. When he was sweating, he was called by his grandmother in the pavilion.
"Your father slept with you last night?"
Jiang Ling thought that her grandmother was unhappy about this, so she explained, "Last night, my father went to the grandson's room when he was about to be ugly, and fell asleep. The grandson wanted to persuade him to go back to the west courtyard, but he couldn't bear it, because his father seemed to be ugly. Seems to be exhausted."
However, Mrs. Jiang was cheerful, "Your father has been really hard these days, let him sleep, you can go back to the west courtyard to wash up later, and then come over for dinner after washing up."
"Yes." Jiang Ling was of course happy to see her sister when she went back to the west courtyard to wash up.
Jiang Ling arrived at the west courtyard, only to find out that her mother had just woken up. Yazheng had a good night's sleep, and when she woke up, she found out that the second master was sleeping with her son, and went to the north courtyard with some trepidation, waiting to be taught by her mother-in-law.
Mrs. Jiang heard that she slept so deeply last night that she didn't even know her husband had returned to the room, but she wasn't angry at all, and even invited her to sit beside her, which made Yazheng a little flattered. Seeing that, Mrs. Chen felt uncomfortable, and said, "Second younger brother and sister slept deeply at night, and the second younger brother didn't know when he came back. In the long run, it is not the way to go. In my opinion, it is better to build the cross-courtyard in the west courtyard as soon as possible."
As soon as she said those words, everyone in the room fell silent. Jiang Liu's face sank. The burned out courtyard in the west courtyard was for his father's two concubines. What my aunt said was: Since the second younger brother and sister cannot serve the husband, let the second younger brother take concubines. Not to mention my mother, even Jiang Liu was not happy when he heard it.
But the grandmother was here, and before she could speak, Jiang Liu looked up at her grandmother. Yan shi cast a soothing look at the second sister-in-law, and Ya Zheng was drooping her eyes, not receiving her kindness.
The second daughter-in-law has not been in the house for less than a month, and she, the eldest sister-in-law, brought the matter of concubinage to the second brother in front of the children, which is really outrageous. Mrs. Jiang glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law before looking around at everyone and said, "Tomorrow is the fifth day of the first day of the new year. Today, you must make sure what you have to do tomorrow, and eat quickly."
