Chapter 110: The Book of Deeds

Su Wei hurriedly reminded Li Zhen Bao in a quiet voice, “Diet Little Master, this is a nunnery, you can’t talk about those things.”

Li Zhenbao reluctantly shut her mouth.

Jiang Yishi smiled into her ear, “Don’t worry, I’ll make you more.”

Jiang Yishi left the meditation room, and Sister Chai brought two more food boxes of vegetarian snacks made by the royal family’s cooks.

Back home, Hua Hua hadn’t returned yet.

The little guy came back in the early hours of the next morning. Jiang Yishi was so angry that she poked the little head a few times and told the maid to get up and give it a bath.

After breakfast, Jiang Yishi and the others went back to the capital Jiang Mansion.

When she arrived home at the beginning of the hour, Jiang Yishi first took the vegetarian points and the wild game she collected in the village to Ruyi Hall, and said a few words to the old lady about Li Zhenbao’s situation and how she would be going to the Hu Yuan again at the end of the month before returning to Scorch Courtyard.

She had just finished washing up when Jiang Yirou arrived.

Jiang Yirou was holding a jade hairpin with a few beaded flowers, which was the jewelry bought for the girls to attend the Peach Blossom Banquet, and she took Jiang Yishi’s to help her receive it.

“Sister-in-law bought it yesterday. I saw a special one, it’s a lotus type, the jade withered flower is also bigger, third sister was the first one to grab it. Hmph, they must have said yes first.”

Jiang Yishi laughed, “Just Jiang Yiyan, no one would care for a night pearl on her head.”

Jiang Yirou thought about it, and the depression in her chest dispersed.

The next day, Jiang Yishi went to Zheng Mansion on time, and also brought them some mountain goods collected in the countryside.

Little girl Zheng Jingjing was much more confident, pulling Jiang Yishi’s sleeve, she said, “My mother said, wait until next year, I’ll be able to go to the Peach Blossom Banquet.”

Jiang Yishi laughed, “No need to wait until next year, you can participate in the lotus banquet this summer.”

The little girl was so beautiful that she pulled Mrs. Zheng’s sleeve and said, “Mother, did you hear me, hurry up and prepare a pretty summer shirt for me, I also want to dot a vermilion sand mole on my brow ……”.

Mrs. Zheng happily agreed.

After acupuncture, and after eating the morning meal, Zheng Tingting pulled Jiang Yishi to her courtyard.

She took out two sets of spring clothes and smiled, “This is what my mother had the needlework room in the mansion make for Second Sister Jiang, don’t mind.”

A set of light turquoise jacquard pasties, with goose yellow printed silk poncho, moon white horse face veil skirt. One set was a red embroidered half-arm, white embroidered midriff, and a light pink pleated skirt.

Fabrics are brocade, makeup flowers Luo and so on, extremely gorgeous good-looking.

Zheng Tingting did not explicitly say that this was prepared for Jiang Yishi to attend the Peach Blossom Banquet. If she is not satisfied with the clothes of the Jiang Mansion, she can wear the clothes of the Zheng Mansion. If she is satisfied with the Jiang Mansion’s clothes, these two sets of clothes can be worn normally.

Jiang Yishi knew their good intentions and thanked them. She smiled and said, “The clothes are beautiful, I like them very much. But, alas, you also know what happened to me at the Peach Blossom Banquet last year ……”

She was not willing to dress up too out of the ordinary.

Zheng Tingting said, “Luo Yi and Su Mei did go too far last time, my mother told me to play less with these bad minded young ladies, I ignored them. And sister Cui, sister Zhao, sister Xue, I made a deal with them to only play with you …….”

She also embarrassedly looked twice at Jiang Yishi, pulled her hand and said, “Jiang Er Sister, it’s my fault, before I played well with Luo Yi, I didn’t tell uncle grandmother about them right away, letting you be aggrieved. When I told you later, my aunt and uncle said that they were wrong to blame you, and that you were a good boy. My uncle grandmother was particularly unhappy with Luo Yi and Su Mei, scolding them for having bad intentions that were not to be trusted, harming you, and also stirring up her old man’s peach blossom banquet.”

Jiang Yishi laughed, “I can’t thank you enough, how could I blame. If it wasn’t for your righteousness and straightforwardness, I’d still be holding on to such a great offense and upsetting the Grand Princess.”

Zheng Tingting laughed, “My uncle’s grandmother looks majestic, but is actually the most kind. It’s just that, alas, Uncle Ji seldom comes home to guard the border, and she only has Jingdi on her knees, and Auntie’s health is not good, so the house is cold and quiet, so Uncle Grandma loves to find something to pass the time. The annual peach blossom banquet is one of her most valued affairs, was stirred up, the heart is angry, only to let someone to reprimand you …… Oh, she now not only does not blame you, but also said that you are intelligent, to reward you.”

Jiang Yishi heard Zheng Ruimo said, Zheng Ji’s only son Zheng Jing is fourteen years old this year, in the Upper State Prison. Mrs. Zheng He’s health is not very good, rarely go out. The Grand Princess Yichang often cries when she misses her son, and has even scolded Meng Lao Guo Gong for it, and has also begged the Emperor to force Zheng Ji to be transferred back.

But Zheng Ji is the most powerful general after the old Duke of Meng, than his uncle Zheng Lao Shaobao is much stronger. He is willing to guard the border, the emperor can not wait, how can he be forced to transfer him back……

Although the explanation is clear, Jiang Yishi still made up her mind not to wear these two sets of clothes to the Peach Blossom Banquet. One is that she will not steal the other three girls of the Jiang family, especially Jiang Yirou’s limelight, the other is not willing to get in the way of some people’s eyes.

The Meng family’s grandchildren and Li Zhenbao didn’t give away a lot of good materials, and she only made a few sets of clothes to wear at home. The first life, those little lady’s vanity and triumphalism is long gone.

The two of them talked and laughed for a while before Jiang Yirou went home.

Jiang Yirou especially liked the silk poncho sent by Zhengfu. She asked the maid to invite the third lady to discuss the matter, it was a tribute, the embroidery workshop certainly did not have, but you can buy fabrics with similar colors and patterns back to do.

This is the finished product sent by Zhengfu, Jiang Yishi is not good to give it to her.

Jiang Yishi also especially hope that Jiang Yirou can be in this peach blossom banquet by which family, the wrong family in the previous life.

The noblewomen attending the Peach Blossom Banquet would not only search for good candidates for their own sons and daughters, but also for their nieces and nephews or well-connected relatives. It was unlikely that Jiang Yirou would be able to marry into a big family as a son’s daughter-in-law, but it was possible for her to become a concubine’s daughter-in-law or a daughter-in-law of a close family member. The third master and his wife love their daughter so much that they are not willing to let her be a concubine’s daughter-in-law for fear of being treated harshly by her mother-in-law, and would rather have her married off to a clan relative with a better career path.

A few people joked for a while, went to Ruyi Hall.

First Lady Jiang was already there, talking happily with the old lady.

The old lady beckoned to Jiang Yishi and said, “Here, your fields and manor are ready. Five thousand taels of silver, bought eight hundred acres of land, a manor with a lake and plum orchard, very good. This deed is yours, keep it well.”

Mrs. Jiang didn’t expect the old lady to give the deed to Jiang Yishi at this time, but she couldn’t say anything against it.

Jiang Yishi took the deed and glanced at it. Eight hundred acres of “land” four thousand eight hundred silver, a manor one hundred and eighty silver.

The deed was exactly the same as in the previous life, and not at all the same as the one Wu Dabo had read on the ground.

Big Mrs. Jiang smiled again, “There are still twenty taels of silver left, the steward spent fifteen taels to go to the Yamen to do the work, and the remaining five taels to reward the person who did the work, after running for so many days, he has worked hard too.”

Jiang Yishi got up and took the deed, smiling at the old madam, “Thank you grandmother.”

Mrs. Jiang thought that Jiang Yishi would be grateful for her help, but she didn’t expect that she didn’t thank herself, but thanked the old lady instead.

She was angry in her heart, but did not show it on the surface. Secretly, this kind of white eyes that don’t know what’s good for her, deserves her to suffer.
