Chapter 134 (1/2)
The days passed peacefully, as if they were not affected. In the twinkling of an eye, it was the end of summer, and the weather was a little cooler than before. The miscellaneous things in the past have gradually settled down, and the death of old lady Jiang seems to be gradually forgotten.
Jinying palace, snow pigeon flying in from the window, landed on the room boxwood desk, wings accidentally stained with ink ink, white feathers appear a few ink.
Xiao Shao lifted the snow pigeon from the inkstone and put it in the palm of his hand. The snow pigeon's small white head looked at him with his eyes like black beans. Xiao Shao touched the head of the snow pigeon and untied the copper bar on its leg.
The note in the copper strip was not long, and there was a small line of writing on it. After reading the note, Xiao Shao slowly frowned.
A moment later, he put the note aside on the oil lamp and burned it. He told the people around him: ”prepare the horse, I'm going out of Beijing.”
”Master...” Jinyi hesitated.
”Ask Yefeng to come out. Yibao Pavilion doesn't need any more hands. Go to Baizhang building and find the fourth one.”
Brocade a facial expression a Lin, way: ”is.”
……
Ruan said, ”girl, the carriage is ready.”
Dew picked up a small basket of snacks on the table and said with a smile, ”it's better to take some on the road.”
A few days ago, I received a post from Mrs. Dong, which was signed by Dong Ying'er, but it was Mrs. Dong who invited her. She only said that she wanted to invite Jiang Ruan to get together in her house. Since the death of old lady Jiang, and in order to keep filial piety, Jiang Ruan simply stayed in the yard for a long time and never went out. Dong Ying'er said that she had not seen her for a long time, and suddenly received a post from the Dong family. Forsythia suspense and Angelica dahurica were surprised.
So today he asked Tianzhu to prepare his carriage and go out to Dong Fu.
When I went out, I happened to meet Jiang Dan and Hongying, who were talking. Hongying's stomach became more and more pregnant, and she was about to give birth in a few days. Now Jiang Quan leaves all the affairs in the mansion to Hongying. Xia Yan has never released her. Her former second aunt has already died. Hongying is the only one in the mansion, and she seems to be the mother of the family.
Dewdrop's eyes flashed, and she didn't know if Hongying wanted to find her way. Besides Jiang Susu, she was always kind to Jiang Dan, and they had a good relationship. On the surface, Jiang Dan didn't do anything, but dewdrop had been following Jiang Ruan for so long. Naturally, she could see that Jiang Dan was not harmless on the surface. Isn't Hong Ying beating Jiang Ruan in the face? Or does Hongying think that if she flatters Jiang Dan, she will be able to go to the empress of the palace in the future?
Although the face is still sweet smile, eyes are hard to hide not angry. But Jiang Dan first saw them and said with a smile, ”big sister.”
Jiang Ruan nodded: ”fourth sister, aunt.”
Hongying holds her stomach with one hand, and her face is nothing else. She looks haggard and slovenly when she is pregnant. On the contrary, she is more colorful and charming than before. Her skin is as shiny and smooth as jade, and her clothes and jewelry are all excellent. She is obviously favored by Jiang Quan. When she saw Jiang Ruan, she said with a smile, ”where are you going, big girl?”
”Miss Dong invited me to have a party at your house.”
Jiang Dan laughed: ”big sister is really enviable.”
”You will be able to bear many sisters in the future. What do you say is envy.” Hong Ying joked.
”My aunt teased me.” Jiang Dan looked down shyly.
Jiang Ruan looked at the scene of harmony in front of him. The concubine and the concubine got along very well. Hong Ying's action was closely related to Jiang Quan's command. There was a chill in my eyes. When I looked up again, I still had a smile like a flower: ”in that case, I will not disturb my aunt and my fourth sister's chatting. I'll go first.”
”Big sister, walk slowly.” Jiang danxiao's kindness, if not knowing, I'm afraid he thought these two sisters were his own.
When she got out of the house and got into the carriage, dewdrop could not help saying, ”what does the fifth aunt mean? It's hotter than the fourth lady.”
Jiang Ruan faintly shook her head: ”fifth aunt is a smart person, naturally understand that I can't get any benefits here.” She was cold tempered. Before, because of Xia Yan and her second aunt, she was on the United Front with Hongying. As soon as Xia Yan and Er Yi Niang go, Hong Ying doesn't have any threat in the mansion. She just needs to please Jiang Quan. Er Jiang Quan doesn't like to see her all the time. If Hong Ying is intimate with her, she will lose Jiang Quan's favor.
”It's too much of a rudder.” The dewdrop thought about it and finally shook her head.
”People are fickle, so why look forward to it.” Jiang Ruan closed his eyes and rested against the wall of the car.
The dew spat out her tongue and stopped talking. But Tianzhu looked at Jiang Ruan thoughtfully. The longer she followed this master, the deeper her doubts about Jiang Ruan became. She didn't understand where the cool and thin image of Jiang Ruan came from. In some things, she is more ruthless than a killer. Tianzhu in the royal guards has seen all kinds of people, but she has never seen such a lady. She is smart and terrible.
What Jiang Ruan said before her second aunt died was deeply imprinted in her heart.
Jiang Ruan said that she would recover one by one the debts of her life owed by Jiang Fu. But from the beginning to the end, Zhao Mei was the only one in her family who died in Jiang Fu. Where did she get the debts of her life one by one.Tianzhu felt that there was a deep secret hidden in Jiang Ruan's heart, which she didn't know even a few servant girls who were very close to her. She thought, maybe we should find a time to report these things to the young master.
……
On the house of jingzhaoyin.
Dong Ying'er leans on the soft couch, not so much because he is leaning on it, but rather because he has no strength. Compared with the thin and gaunt days before, he seems to have gained some weight these days, but his face is full of sadness, which makes him look like a carefree girl.
The maid, hong'er, came forward and put the cooked brown sugar lotus seed porridge on the couch. She said respectfully, ”Miss, use some porridge.”
”I don't want to eat it.” Don't turn your head.
”You have to eat if you don't want to.” A cold voice came, but Mr. Dong stepped in. But his face was very cold, and he said abruptly, ”put away your unrealistic thoughts. The portrait has been sent to the palace. In a few days, someone will come to the palace, and you will come to the palace.”
”Father,” Dong Ying'er said in a soft voice, but insisted, ”Ying'er will never enter the palace.”
”Not in the palace? Then you and your mother go to Chang's home to make amends and enter Chang's door! ” Lord Dong said angrily.
”Ying'er only married one person in this life, that is, Jiang Xinzhi, general Jiang!”
As soon as this remark came out, Dong Da was very angry. He immediately raised his hand to Dong Ying'er. Dong Ying'er looked at him without fear. In the end, he couldn't bear to fight. Just angry way: ”muddle headed! I don't think you're sober. You'll be locked up for a few more days! ”
After that, he left in a huff.
After Mr. Dong left, Dong Ying'er seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and her whole body faltered and fell on the soft couch, weeping. Mr. Dong had always loved her, but now he put her under house arrest and ordered people to take good care of her every day, just to send her to the palace. She thought that she had a good father and sympathized with Jiang Ruan's experience, but now it seems that her father and Jiang Ruan's father are just as cruel!
But in the outer hall, Jiang Ruan got out of the carriage and was welcomed in by Dong Fu's servants. Jiang Ruan has been to jingzhaoyin's house several times, and my servants have to know her well. When she was led into the main hall, Mrs. Dong was sitting in her seat. When she came in, she got up and said, ”princess.”
