Chapter 109: When Will You Grow Up?
The Meng family’s grandchildren still ate in the west room, while Meng Zhong and Meng Lianshan, a few subordinates, were accompanied by Eldest Uncle Wu in the east room.
Jiang Yishi ate alone in the upper room.
Meng Ruimo brought her gifts have been brought in, is the Shu real estate jewelry, rouge and powder, comb, bamboo pillow, fan, packed a large box. In addition, there is a set of pen, ink and inkstone, is for Jiang Xun.
Things are not much, but exquisite and beautiful, Jiang Yishi especially like the pair of bamboo pillows and embroidered double-sided Shu embroidery fan.
After the meal, both grandchildren did not leave.
The old man couldn’t be bothered to sit in the yard with Jiang Yishi to pick up flowers and plants.
Meng Zhimo stood alone in front of the window, moving along with that beautiful shadow. In his eyes, that shadow was more beautiful than all the flowers.
In his mind, another garden is even more blooming, Jiang Yishi is weaving in and out of it, and there are actually two little dolls …….
The sun is falling in the west, Jiang Yishi went to the kitchen to make two dishes and soup.
After eating, the two grandchildren returned to the Meng family home.
The old master took two of his own soldiers to walk back. Meng Zhimo didn’t want people to know he was back yet, and still took the carriage back.
In the evening sun, seeing the carriage and silhouettes disappearing at the end of the path, Jiang Yishi only returned to the courtyard.
She sat in front of the window of the east side house and watched the evening sun in the sky gradually disappear into the mountain tops …… The day together was so sweet.
The next day, Jiang Yishi baked snacks with Sister Wu, Shui Zhu and a few others, and made a jar of mushroom soup.
Today Meng Zhimo would not come, he went out on another errand and returned directly to the capital two days later.
Sister Wu’s daughter-in-law and Shui Zhu joked about Shui Xiang, so shy that Shui Xiang hid in the house and was embarrassed to come out.
In the morning, baked good snacks, let Wu Youfu send two boxes to Meng Elder Duke, Jiang Yishi took snacks, mushroom soup Shui Ling and Wu Yougui went to Zhaoming nunnery.
The path is winding, the wheat in the field is green and rolling, the busy townspeople greeted Wu Yougui. In the distance, the mountains are rolling, and the eaves and horns of the woods are faintly visible.
Once again on this path, Jiang Yishi relaxed and happy.
She loved the life in the manor, just like she loved the warm, free and fragrant spring breeze. Only the same, the sickly little Zhenbao made her heart ache.
Arriving at Zhaoming Nunnery, there were still a lot of incenses. They went directly to Li Zhenbao’s Zen garden.
Sister Chai and Sister He stood waiting outside, and when they saw that Jiang Yishi had gone and taken so much food, they both smiled and bent their eyes.
Sister Chai quietly said, “Little Master Saving Food also misses Miss Jiang very much. Miss Jiang, please wait a moment, Silent Cang is giving diet master acupuncture, after acupuncture to soak in medicinal soup. When Silent Cang host acupuncture finished I ask her to see diet little master can see guests after soaking medicinal soup.”
Also took it upon himself to say send Silent Cang host a box of vegetarian points. The Sheriff said that the vegetarian points made by Miss Jiang can’t even catch up with the royal cooks.
Jiang Yishi agreed and went to the main hall to burn incense and worship Buddha first.
When she finished her fasting meal and then went to the small Zen garden, Li Zhenbao was brewing medicinal soup.
Sister Chai smiled and said, ”The Silent Cang presiding officer agreed to fast the young master to see the guests for two quarters of an hour, just until after shenzhen time. Miss Jiang please go to the compartment and sit down ……”
Jiang Yishi laughed, “I see that the apricot blossoms in the garden are in full bloom, go there to take a look and then come back.”
Waiting until the stroke of dawn, Jiang Yishi followed Su Wei into the meditation room.
Li Zhenbao leaning on the Luohan bed, wet hair hanging down, pale face, thinner than before, grew taller, features also grew some. The eyes contain a smile, but the mouth to cry not cry deflated.
Jiang Yishi went forward a few steps to pull her hand, said, “Jumbo, finally see you again. You’ve grown taller ……”
“Jiang Er Sister, I miss you so much.”
“I miss you too ……” Jiang Yishi sat next to her.
Li Zhenbao’s head was resting on Jiang Yishi’s lap, impatiently complaining about her suffering.
“Sister, I’m so hard to bear, I feel like these months have been dark, I really want to die …… but I can’t. I can’t let go of my father, he is extremely good to me. And the royal grandmother, I know how good she is to me. And big brother, Qiqi ……
“The days are too hard, I just think of the happy times I had with my sister, who let me know that I could be so happy, too, and hang in there and get through the tribulation, and all the days in the future will be so good. Truly, our time together was the happiest I have ever been in my life ……”
Voice softens, “Not even in a previous life ……”
In her previous life, her heart was filled with hatred and resentment towards her parents, thinking the most about how to be angry with them and how to rebel. Not pleasing her elders and teachers, not having a single true friend. There is to please her classmates, but just want to follow her to dabble in food and drink, and even instigate her to do bad things …… Only dad is good to her, or only think about it before dying.
In those seventeen years, she had beauty, a father who loved her, and lived in a modern society with highly developed technology, but she lived a muddled life, and even her smile was fake.
In this life she finally knew the preciousness of her relatives, and thankfully there were still so many of them who genuinely liked her, even liked her in an unusual way. However, they don’t understand her, they all treat what she says as childish talk, only Jiang Er sister understands her. What is in her heart, she is also only willing to tell her ……
Jiang Yishi gently wiped her back with her hand and listened to her low ramblings.
When she finished, she said, “Jumbo is brave, the darkest days are bright when you get through them. There are so many things waiting for you to do, you need to get well soon. Oh, and there’s that different and funny good man just waiting for you to get to him.”
Jumbo Lee burst out laughing, “I don’t go to him, he comes to me.” Her face wrinkled again, “Ugh, I haven’t gotten my monthly letter until now, I’m in a hurry ……”
“Diet Little Master.”
Sister Chai had to put a stop to this topic, her voice was unconsciously thick. In fact, she was also very worried, the Sheriff Master’s health is not good, since childhood, she has been soaked in medicinal soup, I don’t know when she can grow up. But this kind of thing can’t be said in public even if you are in a hurry, shame on you.
Jiang Mashie smiled and nodded Li Zhenbao’s garlic nose. And then said to whom to give those two things, how to pass out. Especially talking about giving the duckling doll to Jung Jingjing, the little girl thought the duck was too cute and never ate duck again ……
Li Zhenbao’s eyes lit up as she listened. She had also heard her father and brother talk about the rumors about her in the capital nowadays, but they were not this detailed.
The two seemed to have only spoken a few words before Sister Chai said it was time.
Jiang Yixi didn’t dare to linger despite her reluctance.
Li Zhenbao said, ”Presiding Officer Silent Cang said that my body is recovering well, better than in previous years. I will be able to leave the meditation room at the end of this month, and I can return to the capital in May or June. Jiang Er sister, I can attend your wedding, happy? Alas, it’s a pity that bridesmaids are not welcome here.”
Jiang Yishi was also happy for her and said, “I’ll go back to Huzhuang again at the end of the month and make you delicious food, so come over and play.”
Li Zhenbao joyfully said, “I crave leek scrambled eggs, tsubaki scrambled eggs, brined eggs, steamed eggs, salted duck eggs ……”
