Chapter 875: Uncle became a son-in-law
Chapter 875
On New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers all over Kang'an shook the sky.
Er Ye Jiang, who was promoted to the post of imperial envoy and bought a full six carts of fireworks and firecrackers, celebrated outside the mansion. Why are you outside the gate? Because there are three pregnant women in Jiang's house, they can't help but toss. The three brothers of the Jiang family took their children to set off firecrackers outside. Mrs. Jiang took her daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, third granddaughter and Mrs. Zheng in the north courtyard. She opened the window and watched the fireworks exploded over the alley, feeling lively and lonely.
The commotion continued until midnight, when all the fireworks and firecrackers were set off and a salute to Mrs. Jiang, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Jiang Ling, Jiang Xijing, Jiang Xichen, and Zheng Caiwei paid Mrs. Zheng New Year's greetings, received a lot of New Year's money, and prepared to go back to their room to rest.
The young man is full of energy, and it is the first time in his life that he has experienced the lively New Year's Eve in Kang'an, the capital city. Jiang Xijing is not sleepy at all, lying on Jiang Ling's bed and talking to him a lot. At the end, Jiang Xijing bumped his little cousin with his elbow, and said mysteriously, "You are a thief, Liu'er hasn't passed the door yet, so you dragged others to worship your ancestors with you. !"
Jiang Ling put his hands under his head and told his elder cousin the truth that he had never told anyone else, "Cousin, don't talk nonsense, Liu'er doesn't know what I'm thinking, and even I just realized how I feel about her. Mind. I used to... just wanted to find a better son-in-law for her..."
Jiang Xijing sat up straight with a carp, and asked enthusiastically, "Tell your cousin how you changed yourself from eldest brother-in-law to son-in-law?"
Jiang Ling didn't want to talk, he turned over to face the wall, and said seriously, "I haven't become. I have to return to Kang'an alive first, and then ask Liuer's heart. If she also likes me, I can marry her."
Jiang Xijing was silent for a moment, then lay down on the bed again, and then said, "Okay, let's go to Suzhou first, and we will discuss the marriage after you return to Beijing safely."
"Yeah. So cousin, don't tell others, and Uncle Qiu understands what I'm thinking..."
Before Jiang Ling could finish speaking, Jiang Xijing laughed, "Even I can see it, who else can you hide your thoughts from?"
Jiang Ling was in a hurry, turned over and sat up and said, "Cousin, you mean to stay with her..."
"No, she's still a little girl who hasn't grown up, how can she understand this." Jiang Xijing saw his little cousin who had a straight face all day, and now he was like an anxious monkey, feeling amused and distressed, "Except for you My dear little sister Liu'er, your adoptive father probably didn't notice it either, so it's hard to tell about the others. By the way, and Jiang Saburo, he certainly didn't notice it."
In addition to playing with his house of birds, the only thing that can make Saburo care about is a few cats in the house. Jiang Ling breathed a sigh of relief and was a little disappointed at the same time. He seriously asked his cousin, "Do you think my third sister can see it?"
"I don't know. I haven't said a few words to your third sister. I don't even dare to speak out when I see her." Jiang Xijing shook his head. Miss Jiang San is not very old, but when she talks, she does things. As long as the ruler is measured well, no one can pick out any faults. Jiang Xijing froze when he saw her, for fear that he would lose the face of the Jiang family in front of her.
Although, the face of the Jiang family has long been lost by his third brother Jiang Xichen. That stinky boy was also thinking about Jiang Liu with all his heart. People didn't look down on him, and he still pushed forward. No matter how Jiang Xijing fought, it wouldn't work.
The third sister is extremely sensitive in the aspect of children's marriage. Now even the carefree cousin can see it, so must the third sister. The third sister was aware of her own thoughts, but did not stop her from getting along with Liu'er. Does this mean...
Jiang Ling couldn't help grinning, and giggled.
Jiang Xijing gave him a kick in disgust, "Lie down and have fun, otherwise I'll beat you up like a fool, little general!"
When Jiang Ling was lying on the bed too excited to fall asleep, Jiang Xijing yawned and said, "It's getting late, didn't your adoptive father say that he will take you out for New Year's greetings tomorrow? Go to sleep."
My aunt and cousin traveled thousands of miles to Beijing to accompany them for the New Year, and to protect themselves in Suzhou in a few days. Jiang Ling whispered, "Cousin, you go to Suzhou..."
Before Jiang Ling could finish speaking, Jiang Xijing said, "I'm different from you, my son can walk!"
Jiang Ling…
How could Jiang Xijing not understand what his cousin wanted to ask? After showing off his son, he said, "We are military generals, and Guangyao's lintel depends on military merit. I'm going back to Suzhou to make military merits and be promoted. Suzhou, if you are unlucky, you will become Colonel Zhenwei, if you are lucky, I will become a guerrilla general.”
Bad luck, not from the sixth-rank commander of Zhenwei, but died in Suzhou and returned with a body. If he just wanted to be a guerrilla general, why would he need to go to Suzhou, stay in Yingzhou for two years and fight the Eastern Ying pirates. What is the reason why my grandfather sent his eldest grandson to bring several carts of luggage and hundreds of elites into Kang'an? Jiang Ling's heart is like a mirror.
Jiang Ling heard his cousin snoring immediately and smiled warmly.
The first day of the New Year's Day has not yet turned on, and the sound of firecrackers rang again intensively. Jiang Xijing, who slept enough, stretched and just sat up and listened to his cousin, "Last night I was afraid that my cousin would not be able to sleep, so I didn't tell you, my adoptive father said that after breakfast, he would take us with him. Go out together to pay New Year's greetings to King Jiashun, Huang Gelao, Marquis Pingxi, Marquis Xiangyi and Minister of War."
The shirtless Jiang Xijing jumped up, "What did you say?!"
Jiang Ling…
"Your adoptive father also said to take me there? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Jiang Xijing nervously stood up and turned around a few times, "They are all big names, should I go and kowtow? What should I say...I All he wears are the clothes he wears in battle, and those who can see people only wear two..."
Jiang Ling said, "The one my cousin wore yesterday was very good. You are handsome and look good in everything you wear."
"I don't deserve to carry shoes for your foster father for someone like me." Jiang Xijing was not afraid to kill his enemy on the battlefield. He asked him to pay New Year's greetings to the first-class people in the court. He really didn't know where to put his hands and feet.
Jiang Ling smiled, "Let's just say auspicious words, and leave the rest to my adoptive father. If you go out with my adoptive father, you will definitely learn a lot. Let's go, let's go to my aunt to say New Year's greetings."
In the West Courtyard, Jiang Muyan brought Jiang Liu and Xiaoyue'er to kneel on the ground to greet their parents for the New Year, and then each received a heavy purse.
Then, Jiang Liu followed his father to the Beiyuan to pay New Year's greetings to his grandmother, uncle, and third uncle, and got three more purses. In the end, Jiang Muyan brought her younger brothers and sisters to pay New Year's greetings to her eldest brother and sister-in-law, and Yue Jinyi also gave each of them a purse.
Sister-in-law came in. They took an extra purse than in previous years, and every child was very happy. Jiang Mujin said, "Second brother, third brother, you two have to hurry up this year!"
Saburo is okay, he is only fourteen and not in a hurry, but Erlang is already seventeen, and my sister-in-law has never seriously planned for his marriage. My own silly girl said this in front of the whole family, didn't she slap her sister-in-law's face? Seeing that sister-in-law's face was not good-looking, Mrs. Yan glared at her daughter and said in a feigned anger, "When Saburo becomes a relative, you would have gone to someone else's house to give away the New Year's money!"
"Aunt San is so right!" Jiang Sanlang patted his thighs and laughed extraordinarily arrogant, and the whole room laughed along, and Jiang Mujin's words were revealed like this.
But everyone knows in their hearts that Jiang Erlang, who is already seventeen years old, should indeed discuss a kiss.
