”Sister Wan'er … ”I've wronged you …” Jiang Chuzhong looked at Jiang Wan, who was crying so hard, and said that she had also heard rumors about Xiao Rui.
”aggrieved? What's wrong with her? ” However, the Qin family jumped up from the ground in jealousy.
The Crown Princess of the Prince's estate was of the first rank!
Even higher than Jiang Shu by five levels, let alone Jiang Shu who had only just been conferred the title of a seventh grade noble.
Her two daughters had both become concubines, but the little Shu girl that Jiang Wan, this concubine's concubine, had turned into a legal wife with a shake of her body?
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Her good mood about burning incense in the temple also vanished in the blink of an eye.
”Ignorant woman!” Jiang Chuanzhong gave née Qin a furious glare before flinging his sleeves, he left for the outer court.
Née Qin fell onto Mother Du beside her in anger, pointed at Jiang Chuanzhong's back and said: ”What does he mean by that? If my daughters are old enough, can he not look at me in the eye? ”
With that, she called out for Mother Du to help her back to her room. As for the matter of going to the temple to burn incense, no one ever mentioned it again.
The courtyard that was filled with people a moment ago suddenly became empty.
Zhao Su Niang took Brother Sheng's hand and walked forward, covering her mouth as she smiled, ”Madam wangfei, do you have time to come to our house and take a seat?”
”Is Aunt making fun of me?” Jiang Wan blushed as she spoke, yet she still followed Zhao Susu back to her western room.
This time, Zhao Su Niang's room had an embroidery belt that could be used by both of them at the same time.
In order to put down the embroidery tension, they even moved a black lacquer floor cabinet against the wall to Brother Sheng's room.
”Go to your room and read.” ”Yes, Brother Sheng,” Madam Su instructed him softly. Then, Brother Sheng took out a book from the brick bed and walked into his own room.
It was already May, and just wearing a thin layer of clothing would make people feel hot. However, Zhao Sanniang's room had doors and windows shut tight like it was winter, making the room much hotter.
Zhao Sanniang arranged for the young maid, Xiang Rui, to fan Jiang Wan, and said with an apologetic smile, ”There are many mosquitoes and bugs in the courtyard. If you open the windows, Brother Sheng won't be able to sleep well at night.”
Only now did Jiang Wan notice that the west room's window was actually covered in winter brown paper.
Qing Xin carefully served two cups of tea. Zhao Su's mother served one cup to Jiang Wan and said with a smile, ”Taste this year's new tea.”
Jiang Wan looked at her in surprise.
However, Zhao Su Niang winked at her and whispered, ”I let Caiqing secretly go out to buy some tea. Although it wasn't as good as the one in my wife's house, it was still much better than the tea leaves from before.”
Jiang Wan glanced at the taut red cloth embroidered on the side, and understood.
In the Great Liang Dynasty, red was the color that belonged exclusively to the first wife of the first wife, and even when she was domineering over Ginger, before she became Empress Dowager, she only dared to wear pomegranate and cyan colors similar to that of red rather than red.
The embroidery on the taut thing, the flower color is not complex, one look at it is for the outside of the shop.
”If Madam knows about this, won't she say something?” Jiang Wan took a sip of tea with an indifferent expression.
Although the servants of the various families would always secretly do some selling, there were only a few who dared to be so brazen.
”Isn't that a good reminder?” ”Last time, you asked me if I was embroidering a dowry for Qing Qing, but later on, I thought about it, wasn't it? Later on, when Mother Du came over to ask, I said that it was for Qing Qing, and they didn't say anything more.”
