Chapter 496: retreat
Chapter 496 Retreat
On the second day, Jiang Liu didn't have to go to Bai's house to learn kung fu. After sending his brother out first, he returned to the western courtyard to prepare to send his father out for work. When she returned to the west courtyard, she saw that her father was in high spirits asking Jiang Hou'er to pack something, and when she saw her coming in, she raised her hand and called, "Stay here!"
Jiang Liu rushed over, Jiang Erye squeezed her fleshy little face and praised, "Liu'er's trick is really wonderful, as expected of my daughter, such a good idea can come up!"
Jiang Liu patted his father's hand, raised his hand to protect his little face, and asked, "Dad, are you trying to use this trick to deal with someone? Don't leak the news."
Jiang Erye flicked his daughter's forehead and hummed, "Do you think your father is you, and the monkey is a foolish Shuqiu?"
Ginger stay…
As she was talking, Nanny Zhao brought Shu Qiu over to kowtow and bid farewell to the masters.
Seeing that Xiao Shuqiu had changed into a coarse cloth shirt and skirt, and her eyes were swollen to the size of walnuts, Erye Jiang knew that Nanny Zhao had scolded her a lot last night, so he smiled and said, "It's better to go back to live with your father, brother and sister-in-law, You help me keep an eye on the Lingzao and Jinsizao on the west hillside outside Zhuangzi, because I didn't catch a few last year."
Shuqiu responded immediately, "Yes!"
Yazheng asked Yun Shu to take a bag of soft muslin cloth and hand it to Nanny Zhao, "This muslin cloth should be brought back by Shu Qiu to make clothes for Shuan'er."
Shuan'er is the grandson of Nanny Zhao, who is two years old this year. Fine cotton cloth is a good thing. It doesn't look bad, but it is very comfortable to wear. It costs several taels for such a small bag. Nanny Zhao was very happy, holding the cloth.
Only then did Jiang Liu realize that he forgot to give something to the nanny and Shu Qiu, so he whispered a few words to Qin Bai, and asked her to go back to the hospital to pack a few boxes of fat powder that she used as a reward, and asked the nanny to bring it back to Shu Qiu. Sister-in-law use.
After Shuqiu left, the fifth sister ran to the west courtyard, dragged Jiang Liu to the corner, and asked in a low voice what was wrong with Shuqiu, Jiang Liu was embarrassed to tell the truth, only vaguely asked the fifth sister, "The fifth sister. Do you want to go to Nanshi? My sister and I want to pick a few books."
"Go, of course!" Jiang Mujin would never let go of every opportunity to go out.
When the three sisters went to the North Court to ask their grandmother, Mrs. Jiang went to buy books when she heard about it, and she didn't stop her, "Go, go back early, don't hang out outside, don't go to the water to play."
The weather is getting hotter day by day, more and more people go to the riverside to play, and many accidents happen. The three sisters responded, and when they were about to leave, Mrs. Chen stopped Jiang Muyan, gave her a small purse, and said with a smile, "Your second sister's legs and feet are inconvenient, Yan'er sees the book she likes and helps her pick two books to relieve boredom. ."
"Yes." Jiang Muyan took it with both hands, "Yan'er will help the second sister choose well, aunt can rest assured."
Mr. Yan looked at the fluffy purse that sister-in-law took out, and there must be no half a tael of silver in the secret passage.
Jiang Liu also smiled and said, "My aunt bought the second sister's fan, she liked it so much that she would never leave it sooner or later, my aunt is too good at picking things, and Liu'er went to the West Market every day, but I didn't see such a beautiful fan. "
Jiang Mujin followed suit, "That's right, auntie has the best eyesight!"
When Mr. Chen heard this, he couldn't close his mouth with laughter.
After leaving the house, Jiang Mujin immediately said, "Third sister, look at how much money the aunt gave."
Jiang Muyan opened the purse and found that there were actually two silver coins in it, and said with a smile, "Enough to choose a good book."
"Indeed, I thought the aunt would only give fifty cents." Jiang Mujin was also surprised.
Da Zhou has not invented trap printing yet. Books sold on the market are either engraved or hand-copied, so the price of books remains high. Jiang Liuzheng held his cheeks and wondered if he wanted to show off. When he "invented" movable type printing, he heard the fifth sister whisper, "Third sister, sixth sister, do you know why the aunt became interested in the second sister? ?"
Jiang Liu's thoughts were immediately pulled back, and he looked at Fifth Sister with bright eyes. Jiang Muyan speculated, "Could it be, which one did the eldest aunt fall in love with and want to book it for the second sister?"
Jiang Mujin said mysteriously, "There are reasons for this, and another is: the uncle told the aunt that there will be no more people in his room in the future."
Oh? Jiang Liu's eyes brightened, "How did the fifth sister know?"
"My uncle's mother told my mother, I overheard it, and the eldest aunt said it happily." Jiang Mujin speculated, "I guess it must be the uncle who asked the aunt to treat the second sister and the second brother better, and she did it. ."
"It makes sense!" Jiang Liu pointed his thumb up at the fifth sister. The uncle was a man of his word. He promised the aunt that he would no longer take concubines, and he would definitely do it.
Jiang Muyan asked, "fifth sister, which one did the eldest aunt show the second sister?"
Jiang Mujin shook his head, "She only said that she was a good family that she couldn't find even with a lantern, but she didn't mention which one. The second sister's marriage had to be confirmed by the uncle's nod, but the aunt thought it was useless."
Jiang Muyan nodded lightly, thoughtfully.
"Sixth girl, General Jiang is here on horseback." Outside the carriage, Yayin's voice was filled with excitement, "His face is very ugly."
I vomited like that yesterday, so I must have gone back without eating. Jiang Liu showed his white teeth and raised the curtain of the car with great anticipation. Jiang Muyan whispered, "Don't provoke him."
"Third sister is right, ignore him, come, let's eat." Jiang Mujin handed his sister a piece of beef jerky, smiling badly.
This spiced beef jerky was bought by my brother. It tastes very good. Jiang Liu likes it very much. She took it knowingly, tore the beef jerky into small strips, held it in her hand and waited.
Looking at the oncoming carriage, Jiang Shuzheng's head was full of the unbearable scene of yesterday, his stomach that had nothing to do with it churned, and sour water appeared in his mouth. He turned the horse's head to avoid it, but Menhuzi's pride did not allow him to do so, so he had to push the horse to the side, pretending that he didn't see the Jiang family's carriage.
But when the carriage passed by him, Jiang Shuzheng couldn't help but glance at it, just as he saw Jiang Liu holding a red worm more than an inch long and put it in his mouth!
Jiang Liu smiled when he saw him looking over, "Is General Jiang better?"
Vomit! Seeing the scarlet bug in Jiang Liu's hand, Jiang Shuzheng hurriedly covered his mouth and urged his horse to leave. His two guards ran faster than him and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Now, when he sees himself in the future, he has to back away. Jiang Liu put the beef jerky in his mouth and ate it with relish. At this moment, she suddenly found a person hiding behind the big willow tree by the roadside, showing half of his face and peeking here. Realizing that he had seen her, the man immediately shrank back.
Although he only had half his face, Jiang Liu still recognized it. It was the maid, Shu Xia, who had served by her sister's side.
Didn't she follow her parents south, how could she appear in Kang'an? Jiang Liu raised his hand to call Yayin, and whispered a few words.
Crow addiction nodded and glanced at the big tree next to him.
