Chapter 217 – Guo Jie
Hearing Meng Zhimo’s words, Zheng Ji stared at him blankly.
Meng Ruimo added, ”Shiji siblings lived an unfortunate life after my father in law’s death, Jiang old lady and Uncle Jiang were both greedy for money and cool, and took all the money my family gave them, and treated them poorly …… Good thing Shiji was smart and learned the craft of curing eyes from someone. She cured my eyes, and my grandfather and I also knew her situation in the Jiang family, and helped at times.
“Even if we were betrothed, first Grand Madam Jiang still dared to covet Shishi’s dowry and poison Jiang Xun. If my eyes weren’t healed and we weren’t betrothed, I still don’t know how they were bullied”
When he finished speaking, he looked at Zheng Ji meaningfully. Meaning, you said you miss them, but didn’t do anything about it, and didn’t even know that their siblings were being harshly framed by their family.
Zheng Ji’s drooping fists clenched tightly.
Everyone said that he was self-restrained, heroic, invincible in battle, a man of the heavens and the earth, including the current saint. Only he himself knew that he wasn’t that top-heavy, he hadn’t even been able to marry his favorite woman as he wished, and had driven her to commit suicide.
Only now did he realize that with the Meng family watching over him, the pair of children left behind by Mingya hadn’t had a good life before, having been treated harshly by their own grandmother and their own great-uncle.
He himself guarded the western gate guard of the Jin and dynasty and wiped out all the incoming enemies, but he did not protect the beloved woman and her children ……
Seeing Zheng Ji’s pursed lips, Meng Zhimo smiled to himself. Secretly, not only you, my grandfather conquered for decades and was known as the God of War, but his family was still not stuck with a nail in the coffin by his political opponents, causing chaos in the house. There is also the emperor, all said that he is wise, but did not see the real evil doers, the qu concubine and the king of peace whisked away to the imperial tomb ……
Cultivate the body, align the family, rule the country, and pacify the world, and how many men have done it?
Regardless of others, he must do it. Not only to protect his wife and children well, but also to protect all the people he wants to protect well. If only his mother had lived, they said she was beautiful and gentle, he would have done everything he could to protect her. Unfortunately, she was not even twenty years old when she died ……
“Resignation Mo, what are you thinking about?”
Jiang Yishi’s voice roused Meng Rimo from the past.
His nose turned a little sour and he hugged Jiang Yishi tighter, “Shishi, I won’t let anyone hurt you, hurt our child.”
Jiang Yishi’s face sunk into the nest of his neck and smiled, “I know.”
Meng Zhimo added, “At my father-in-law’s grave, I met Uncle Zheng ……”
Jiang Yishi said, “Don’t talk about him, I don’t want to hear about him. No matter who he misses or pines for, it won’t help.”
“Okay, don’t talk about him.”
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Fu, Second Mrs. Meng, Third Mrs. Meng, Third Grandma Meng, and there was also Jiang Yishi, all brought their respective husbands and children back to their mother’s home. Meng Yue stayed at her mother’s house, and the two of them and the old lady didn’t go anywhere.
Fu’s mother’s family was not in the capital, only two of her clan brothers who were a hat’s length away were there, their families were not prominent, and every year Fu would go to one of them.
Meng Zhimo and the others suspected that she was in contact with people from the Marquis of Zhennan, and that family would be a stronghold. They have already spent a lot of money to buy out one of the underlings of that family ……
Jiang Yishi hadn’t been back to the Jiang family for a long time and was very joyful.
Jiang Jin, Jiang Xun, Jiang Wen, and Jiang Fei all greeted her in front of the Jiang residence.
In order to have more contact with Meng Ruimo, the “noble son-in-law”, Jiang San Laozi and Jiang Jin both went back to the Yue family on the fourth day of the lunar month.
As soon as Meng Jimo and Jiang Yishi stepped out of the carriage, several brothers-in-law came forward to greet them.
Jiang Yishi greeted them, then saw Jiang Xun laughed, “and grow taller and more handsome.”
Jiang Xun pointed to a few red pimples on his face and laughed, “I have grown taller, where is the handsome. How sister looks at me is good.”
Jiang Fei laughed, “My father said that second brother’s long pimples are from wanting a daughter-in-law.”
Said the crowd greatly happy.
Jiang Jin added, “Eldest sister and eldest sister’s father-in-law are already here, second sister’s father-in-law and second sister, please come in.”
The crowd went to Ruyi shi.
What Jiang Yishi didn’t expect was that Jiang Yihui actually brought that commoner son.
Jiang Yishi and Meng Ruimo kowtowed to the old lady, and greeted Uncle Jiang and Third Master Jiang’s couple.
Shui Xiang presented the gift list.
Jiang old lady knew that Jiang Yishi was much more generous now, sending her family generous gifts, smiling with a folded face. She privately thought that Jiang Yishi was like this because she didn’t want to let herself interfere in Jiang Xun’s marriage.
She now does not want to care about Jiang Xun’s relatives, can receive thick gifts, Jiang Xun can also climb a good family, along with their own children and grandchildren have a good future, how to calculate their own family are not a loss.
Seeing the old lady’s eyes full of calculations, Jiang Yishi secretly shook his head. Jiang Chen’s father was such a calm character, how do you have such an old lady ……?
Jiang YiYan hadn’t seen it for a long time, and her eyes were still full of resentment and indignation, even more revealing than Meng Hua had shown.
Jiang Yishi ignored her and smiled at Great Grandma, Jiang Yihui, Jiang Yirou, and Jiang Yishan.
Jiang Yi Hui pushed that child and smiled, “Jie Ge’er, go kowtow to Second Aunt Uncle and Second Aunt.” She also smiled at Jiang Yixi and said, “The child is already in my name and is being supported by me.”
Guo Zi Fei smiled again with satisfaction, “Yi Hui is gentle and virtuous, the child has been taught very well.”
This was the complete opposite of the previous life.
In his previous life, Guo Jie’s birth mother, Aunt Tan, wanted to put the child under Jiang Yi Hui’s name as her first son, and wanted her to raise him herself. Jiang Yi Hui disagreed, saying that it was fine to put the child under her name, but she had to raise him. Aunt Tan was unwilling to do so, so she framed Jiang Yihui for the death of the child, and Jiang Yihui was repudiated back to her mother’s home.
This incident should have happened this summer.
In this life, the child has been given to Jiang Yihui to raise.
Looking at Guo Zifei’s attitude towards Meng Zhimo, although Jiang Yishi very much dislikes the Guo family, but can help Jiang Yihui to change her fate, so that the rest of her life have to rely on, Jiang Yishi is still happy.
The child is a little more than three years old, looks clear and beautiful, not at all like Guo Zifei. Jiang Yixi was fully convinced that this child was the one that Aunt Tan had conceived at the Baizi Temple.
Jiang Yi Hui looked at the child with eyes full of doting, Guo Zi Fei was also full of love. The Guo family and Jiang Yi Hui lacked a child, and the child was innocent, so of course Jiang Yi Xie couldn’t have told that story. Hopefully, this child in the good Jiang Yi Hui teaching, can be kind, filial piety, have good qualities, the biological father’s evil completely discarded ……
Jiang Yi Hui laughed, “What a beautiful little brother.”
Guo Jie knelt down in front of Meng Zhimo and Jiang Yishi, and said with a sticky voice, “Kowtow to Auntie Uncle and Auntie, Auntie Uncle and Auntie Auspicious.”
The lisp wasn’t too clear, but it was cute.
Children are all cute, and at this time Jiang Yishi likes children even more.
She smiled and said, “Good boy, get up.”
When going out, they would all prepare some gifts for such occasions.
Jiang Yishi gave the child a small gold lock, Meng Zhimo pulled off a jade pendant from his waist and gave it to the child, and the two of them each gave a red envelope filled with eight silver peanuts.
Little Jiang Xing also came to kowtow to his second aunt and uncle to pay tribute to the New Year, and the two of them gave the same red packet.
