Chapter 104 – She Wants to Reward You
The next day at the end of the hour, Jiang Yishi took Shui Ling to Zheng Shaobao House. In the future, we must often go to Zheng House, it is not good to say to see the doctor, only that Zheng three girls are not good health can not often go out, she likes Jiang Yishi, Mrs. Zheng invited Jiang Yishi to often go to the Zheng House to play.
Those people love to believe it or not.
In addition to know the truth of the old lady and uncle Jiang, Jiang family other people really do not believe.
The third wife and Jiang Yirou couldn’t be happier. No matter what Jiang Yishi did in Zhengfu, as long as she made good relations with Zhengfu, they were happy to see it.
Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Yiyan are not happy, and are angry that Jiang Yishi, an orphan girl, has climbed the ladder and can often go play with those noblewomen. Mrs. Jiang thought of getting so much silver privately, Jiang Yishi future results will not be good, stopped Jiang YiYan to go to Ruyi Hall to find the old lady reasoning.
Jiang Yishi specially brought an alternative duckling doll, to amuse Jingjing little girl.
This kind of doll was drawn by Li Zhenbao and made by her mother-in-law. Li Zhenbao is good at weaving and painting, but her needlework is miserable. Learning to sew, the stitches were uneven, often sticking to her hands, and she once sewed the cloth on her hands to her own clothes. ……
The two small things that Li Zhenbao asked Jiang Yishi to help launch are a different bracelet and a different duck doll.
Taking a carriage to Zheng Shao Bao House takes half an hour, and arrives at three minutes past the hour.
The sedan chair went directly to Zheng Jingjing’s small courtyard, Mrs. Zheng and Zheng Tingting were waiting here.
Jiang Yishi bowed to Mrs. Zheng, and handed the duckling doll to Zheng Jingjing.
The duckling was tender yellow, flapping a pair of small wings, with a wide open beak and a bright red tongue inside.
Zheng Jingjing smiled and narrowed her eyes, “Oh, so the duck is so cute, it’s different from the picture, I won’t eat ducks anymore.”
She had only seen the ducks in the picture and the ducks on the dining table, she had never seen a real live duck.
Xie laughed out loud, “This duck doll is really handsome. It doesn’t look the same as a duck, but at a glance you can tell it’s a duck ……”
Jiang Yi shi laughed, “This is what county princess Zhen Bao taught me to make, she thinks of things that are subtle and strange.”
Xie glanced at the bracelet on Zheng Tingting’s wrist and tsked in praise, “No wonder the Empress Dowager and Prince Yong favor County Mistress Zhenbao so much, she is indeed icy smart. Let the needle and thread room make a few more and take them to His Highness the Grand Princess to take a look at them ……”
Jiang Yishi glanced at Xie, this is the shrewd person, if it spreads to the Grand Princess, it will spread to the Empress Dowager. If the Empress Dowager is happy, the Eldest Princess and Zheng Laojiao will be happy.
Zheng Jingjing liked Jiang Yishi even more and didn’t know how to praise her, so she pulled her sleeve and said, “Second sister Jiang is very beautiful, just as beautiful as my big sister.”
Jiang Yishi straightened the flowing sea on her forehead, “Jingjing is also beautiful. When elder sister cures your eyes, you will be even more beautiful, even more beautiful than me and your big sister.”
Surprise flashed in Zheng Jingjing’s eyes, “Not lying to me?”
Jiang Yishi nodded her head firmly, “Of course I’m not lying to you.”
Taking advantage of the little girl’s happiness, she began to give her a salute. She cried a few times, and twisted a few times, before her body came down honestly.
After applying needles and then moxibustion, and watching the nursemaid give her a massage, it was already the end of lunchtime.
Xie’s mother and daughter left Jiang Yixi to have lunch.
Seeing that there was duck with shredded soup on the table, Zheng Jingjing was so distressed that her eyes turned red.
“Such a lovely duck, how can you kill it ……”
Xie was overjoyed and had the duck soup removed, and had someone go to the kitchen to catch a real duck over to Zheng Jingjing.
After Jiang Yi shi left, this matter quickly spread in the Zheng House, even the Zheng old young bailiff in the outer courtyard heard about it, and even had someone bring the little duck doll that made his little granddaughter cry to him.
Although the young guard is from the first grade, but it is a false title. Except for important court meetings and things, Boss Zheng usually does not go to court.
The rice ball reads a book
He was also happy that the duck could still be made like this. It is said that the Jumbo Countess is coarse and spicy, and the rumors can not be fully believed. Maybe she is spicy is true, but the heart is clever and penetrating, so it is impossible for such a person to be coarse.
After returning to the house, Jiang Yishi went directly to Ruyi Hall.
The old lady was the only one there.
She greeted Jiang Yishi with a smile, pointing to the several brocade boxes on the bed table and smilingly said, “This is from the Cui family, this is from the Zhao family, and this is from the Xue family.”
Yesterday, Jiang Yishi gave those girls bracelets, and today she sent them back.
The old lady was very pleased that the Cui Sub-Assistant House, Zheng Shaobao House, Changsheng Marquis Zhao House, and Xue Imperial House had all exchanged gifts with her own family. Together with the previous Yong Wang Fu, Wen Wang Fu, Cheng Guo Gong Fu, Jiang family at the same time with so many high family friendship, since she married into the Jiang Fu or the first time.
Jiang family two generations of defeat and decline, to their own here finally ended?
Jiang Yishi opened the brocade box, all of which were the girls’ favorite knick-knacks. A small bottle of homemade jasmine perfume, a beautiful fan, an exquisite small fragrant bag.
Jiang Yishi smiled, “Which one does grandmother like?”
The old lady laughed out loud, “These are the things that the little lady likes, what’s the point of the wife taking them, you keep them for fun.”
There is no conflict of interest, and seeing Jiang Yishi’s future is promising, the old lady is still very kind.
Back to the scorching courtyard, Jiang Yishi called Jiang Yirou over and asked her to pick one. Jiang Yirou likes jasmine perfume, Jiang Yishi gave it to her.
The little girl was happy, took out her very precious crystal string and shoved it to Jiang Yishi.
There was no one in the room before Hua Hua meowed and complained, “Jiang Yiyan scolded you, Jiang Da ‘dirty’ woman said that you are a grasshopper after the fall, first let you jump for a few days ……”
Jiang Yishi snorted coldly, “Still don’t know who is the grasshopper after the fall.”
Five days after the first nine days of February, Jiang Yishi once again went to give Zheng Jingjing acupuncture.
Zheng Jingjing welcomed her out of the house, “Second sister Jiang, I’ve been waiting for you.”
Jiang Yishi held her little hand and walked into the house, taking out a big plate of rose crystal cake.
The treats were beautiful and had a special fragrance, the little girl ate two pieces at once.
“Yummy, it smells even better than the dim sum from the imperial kitchen given by uncle grandmother.”
Xie and Zheng Tingting also each ate a piece.
Xie didn’t allow any more, except for leaving two pieces for the little girl and two pieces for Vice Commander Zheng, the rest were all filial piety to the old master and the Grand Princess and the old emperor’s son-in-law.
The eldest princess house is very close to the Zheng House, only two streets away, let people send them.
The little girl who ate happily consciously went to lie down on the couch, and Jiang Yishi gave her a needle.
Zheng Tingting laughed and said, ”Uncle Grandma likes that little duck doll and bracelet very much, saying that Little Jumbo is handy, and Little Miss Jiang is also handy, and what’s even more rare is that Little Miss Jiang can also cure eye diseases. Yesterday, she took the duckling doll and bracelet to the palace to honor the Empress Dowager, who liked it very much. Auntie said, let you go to the Peach Blossom Banquet next month, her old man wants to reward you.”
This is a formal invitation to attend the Peach Blossom Banquet?
Jiang Yishi happily agreed, but in her heart, she did not want to go to see the Grand Princess of Yichang, to ask her what reward, and even more do not like the ghost of the Peach Blossom Banquet.
