Chapter 144: Delivering the Hire
In the meantime, Jiang Yishi heard the Third Mistress and Jiang Yirou whispering in the Huayuan bedroom.
Third Madame wanted to ask Jiang Yishi to help match Jiang Yirou with Zheng Yu.
“Ma’am Shiyi has a good relationship with Eldest Miss Zheng, and an even better relationship with the Precious County Princess that General Xiao Zheng protects, and General Xiao Zheng has a good relationship with Meng Shizi. …… He’s already nineteen years old, and is in a hurry to find a daughter-in-law, so he’ll surely lower his conditions, so please ask Meng Shizi to help matchmaking may be able to work out… …”
Jiang Yirou was angry and cried, “He is anxious to find a daughter-in-law again, and then lower the conditions, is not something we can think about. If Second Sister knows about this, how can I face her? In the future, I will never go out to play with her again, and I don’t dare to talk to my mother …… about some things.”
At the end of the month, the third master came back, listening to the flowers live relay, said the third master reprimanded the third lady cried. He also scolded the third wife more and more confused, the real in-laws of the Meng family is the second house, all the connections are also in the second house. In the future, one family, their own house and others’ relationship a hat far away.
Zheng Yu and then down and out are not they can miss, not to mention that people are not down and out, Li Zhenbao back to the nunnery, he is still the Royal Forestry Army fourth-grade general, higher than their own official position. Also said Zheng vice commander has spoken to him, in a few days will be able to move his seat …….
The biggest advantage of Mrs. Jiang San is that she listens to her husband. Daughter said broken mouth she could not listen to, was scolded by her husband will be honest. Hearing that her husband will be promoted soon, she is happy again. The heart is also fearful, fortunately, did not take the risk of action, if the husband’s promotion is spoiled, it will delay the big event.
Since the third lady had that thought, Jiang Yirou was embarrassed to go out, sick in the courtyard not to go out. When the third lady eliminated that thought, her illness is also good, and smile to find Jiang Yishi talk, help her do needlework.
Jiang Yishi liked Jiang Yirou from the bottom of her heart, at a young age, she was clear and sensible, and was not blinded by the superficial splendor of her mind. Although the Third Mistress occasionally got confused, she was still a good person. If she can help the little girl in the future, Jiang Yishi is still willing to help.
At the beginning of June, the tomatoes in the Scorched Garden began to bear fruit. Two days later, Wu Yougui reported that the red fruits in the Huyuan had also begun to bear fruit.
Jiang Yishi asked Wu Yougui to send two pots to Mengjiazhuang when she returned. At first, she said that she would send the old man two pots of red fruits as soon as they bear fruit.
Although the small fruits are still only as big as the belly of the finger, green and small, flowers are still happy to meow. Nothing to do is squatting in front of the tomatoes, sometimes also put his nose into the small fruit to smell, hoping that the fruit quickly ripe.
Jiang Yishi didn’t go to the opening day of the restaurant, and the grand opening was constantly rumored into Jiang Yishi’s ears.
Food on the building is different, the decoration is different, the dishes are different, many dishes and snacks taste different, especially the exclusive poker, too much fun …… people tend to rush, and even monks and nuns go to eat, or buy vegetarian food. There is a strict distinction between the vegetarian area and the meat special area, there is a special vegetarian kitchen and restaurant.
The kitchen and dining room were full even at noon, not to mention at night.
Poker and the game of “dry eyes”, “bandit fighting” and “escalation” also spread in the Jinhe Dynasty, and then spread farther and farther to foreign countries. The reputation of Princess Zhenbao is also becoming more and more popular, and some people even call her a “ghost talent.”…… Of course, this is an afterthought, but this is an afterthought.
Jiang Yishi was secretly happy. Even if she only had two shares, she would have gotten a lot of money.
Uncle Jiang and his colleagues went to eat once, and came back to blow the food up to the sky.
Jiang family members know that Jiang Xun has a silver card. But this kind of card can not be transferred to borrow, they must be present in person in order to use, close underlings to buy dishes are not.
On the tenth day of June, Jiang Xun invited a few men of the Jiang family to go to the food to drink and play cards, and bought a tiger elbow and two pounds of thousand layer egg tart, two pounds of grape cake back to invite the women to eat.
June 12 evening, Jiang Xun and the three masters have returned home, but also took a day off. Because tomorrow the Meng family was coming to deliver the hire.
Jiang Yishi has already bought her field to Jiang Xun three hundred acres, let Wu Dabo quietly go to the government office to do the deed. Jiang Xun school busy, the three hundred acres of land is still by Jiang Dabo help manage, and so Jiang Xun grow up and then give him.
Then give him a thousand taels of silver, plus Hu’s left behind the land, Jiang Xun’s family is also quite rich.
In the evening, Jiang Xun came to Scorched Yard, Jiang Yishi handed him the deed and silver check, he was not willing to accept it.
“It should be me earning my sister’s dowry, I don’t have the ability to earn it, and I asked for a big part of the dowry left by my mother, so how can I ask for my sister’s things again. Don’t!”
Jiang Yishi shoved the things hard to him, “What do you call me? Call me sister …… After the second house, you are left alone, think more about everything, do not be impatient, reckless, do not fight …… to practice your skills, sister in-laws live well, but also rely on you to support it… …”
Another flurry of broken thoughts, can not wait to teach this younger brother into a man of the world.
Jiang Xun’s eyes are red, “Sister, I know you have been uneasy about me. Sister rest assured, I will no longer be reckless, no longer impatient, and do not fight with people …… I’m already fourteen years old, is an adult, will be our second house to support up. I will also practice my skills, and when I am successful, I will support my sister, and I will not allow your in-laws to bully you ……”.
Said Jiang Yishi shed tears.
Sister Wu on the side also reddened her eyes. Laughing, she said, “Look at you guys, you have to cry even on happy occasions.”
After saying this, she wiped her tears and walked out the door.
The two siblings rambled about closing the second door before Jiang Xun left.
The next day, Jiang Jin, Jiang Xun, Jiang Fei three brothers greeted at the front door, uncle Jiang, the third master sat in the front courtyard hall, the old lady with the third lady, the great grandmother, Jiang YiYin, Jiang YiShan sat in RuYi. Jiang Yixi didn’t have the heart to come out, accompanied by Jiang Yirou to hide in the scorching garden.
At the beginning of the sixth hour, the Duke of Chengdu’s bride price was sent, Meng Ruimo brought the second master Meng Ruyi, the fourth master Meng Ruyan to send the bride price.
The bride price totaled sixty-four carries, including the bride price cake, seafood, three animals, silk cloth, various gift boxes, etc., and a thousand acres of land and a store deed, the bride price of ten thousand taels of silver. Add up a total of 25,000 taels of silver.
A quart of bride price carried in, set up the front yard.
Jiang Fei is small in age, a while a trip ran to the burning courtyard to report.
“Bride price sent, outside came a lot of people watching, hutong mouth are blocked.”
“Bride price is a lot, set up a yard.”
“Brother-in-law Meng is here, dressed like a groom, handsome as hell, and there’s also Second Master Meng and Fourth Master Meng. They went to the hall to speak to uncle and my father, and will be going to Ruyi Hall in a few minutes to greet grandmother.”
Jiang Yirou was extremely excited to hear this, so she didn’t accompany Jiang Yishi and ran to Ruyi Hall.
The three brothers of the Meng family ate the morning meal at the Jiang family home before leaving.
Jiang Yishi was invited to Ruyi Hall again, so she could see the bride price and bride price list.
In addition to some food, everything in the bride price and ten thousand taels of silver were added to the dowry.
