Chapter 222 – Finding
Meng Zhimo didn’t come back on the night of the ninth day of February, making Jiang Yishi very disappointed.
The next day, Jiang Xun came, and Jiang Yishi was overjoyed.
“It’s almost time to go down, nervous?”
Jiang Xun laughed, “Not nervous. Mister said that if I play normally, the hope of passing is very high.”
He was still a little nervous in his heart and was reluctant to tell his sister.
Jiang Yishi added, “The tonic soup I asked someone to send you, you must drink it all.”
The two siblings were talking when the old master arrived.
Jiang Xun bowed long enough to reach the ground, he came not only to see his sister, he also wanted to ask the once Grand Marshal Meng for advice again before he went down.
Jiang Yishi ten very touched, the old man pretending to be sick a few days did not enter the inner courtyard, today because Jiang Xun well.
One old man and one young man went to the east wing to discuss the “strategy”, Jiang Yishi personally went to the kitchen to make soup.
Since I know that the monk will soon come, Jiang Yishi has not been able to get out of the tears, afraid of tears and their wrists to avoid the separation of the incense beads, so that the Xuan sculpture smell out. Also not willing to take it out and then hurry to use it, there are four small copper tube not filled, she did not want to waste a drop. Look at that small cylinder, the news of exchange can save lives.
This time, Jiang Yishi secretly took a little tear water out, so that his brother to the best face to the examination, but also to the old man to make up for the body.
At the beginning of lunchtime, Zheng Tingting led Zheng Jingjing to play again.
Zheng Tingting has been betrothed, the latter is Changning Marquis House of the second son Li Rao, also in the Beijing martial arts hall to attend school, scheduled to marry the year after next. Listen to Jiang Xun said, Li Rao looks quite good, both martial arts, has been a martial arts Xiucai, waiting for next year’s examination of the autumn exams.
Jiang Yishi joked Zheng Tingting a few sentences, let people invited to Meng Lan, Meng Frost, Huang Xin, Meng Zhaoan to accompany the guests.
Fearing that the old master would find it too noisy, he and Jiang Xun were invited to the backyard room.
Zheng Tingting went out to greet the old master.
The old master asked, ”Zheng Jing is also going down this year? It’s a pity for a good seedling, if it’s a martial arts exam, he doesn’t have a single problem.”
Zheng Tingting laughed, “Brother Jing is also very good in his studies.” He also smiled at Jiang Xun and said, “I wish Mr. Jiang to win the toad palace.”
Jiang Xun clasped his fists and smiled, “Thanks to Miss Zheng’s kind words.”
Not long after, the invited people came, and the front yard of Floating Life Residence was bustling with activity.
The three children teased Hua Hua and Jojo, while several girls and Jiang Yishi played poker.
Just as they were having fun, one of Meng Hua’s maids came.
“Third girl, fourth girl, my second girl has something urgent, please come over.”
Jiang Yishi didn’t say anything, this was unhappy that she hadn’t invited her and had come to break up the game.
Meng Lan shook her head and said, “Not now, go later.”
Meng Frost also said, “Let third sister not be in a hurry, we’ll go in the next morning.”
The maid only had to go.
Zheng Tingting also saw the doorway and laughed coldly, “That Meng Hua doesn’t know what he’s talking about and blatantly abducted people.”
The Zheng sisters played until the beginning of the Shen Hour before they left. When they left, they also asked for two boxes of snacks, one for the Grand Princess and one for Mrs. Zheng.
The old master left Jiang Xun to finish dinner before sending them away.
Jiang Yishi sent the two out of the courtyard, Jiang Xun bowed to the old master bowed again, before walking to the front yard.
Jiang Yishi could see that the old master had lost some weight again, and felt that he had been angered by Meng Daoming. As for Fu, the old master no longer cared to be angry with her.
Jiang Yishi said, “I hope grandfather takes care of his health.”
The old master looked out at the evening sun in the sky for a while before his gaze slid over to Jiang Yishi.
The young daughter-in-law was carrying a large belly, steady, calm, draped in golden haze, looking at him with concern in her eyes……. How fortunate she was to be able to hand over this family to Resignation Mo and her without any problems.
The old man sighed and said, ”You and resignation ink are both good children. Especially resignation ink, I don’t have time to teach him, my wife doesn’t have the energy to care for him, his old man can’t see him, and there are still people who make every effort to try to teach him crookedly …… to be able to grow up like this, it’s not easy. Alas, we are sorry for him, but also ashamed of his mother. Cultivate the body, rule the family, align the country, and level the world, how difficult it is to really do it all.”
He didn’t go back to Fu An Hall and walked towards the outer courtyard with his hands behind his back.
Jiang Yishi suddenly realized that the old man’s back was a bit hunched. The old man who had faced everything with open arms a few days ago, had the matter of his daughter-in-law losing her virginity shriveled him up? It’s not that bad.
Jiang Yishi guessed that perhaps there was something else that made the old man even more sad, but he just didn’t know it.
She turned back to look at the Floating Life Residence, the greenery has already climbed up the tree branches, there are already flowers blooming on the branches, the birds are singing joyful songs, the sinking twilight has covered it with a layer of golden splendor …… She seems to see a few more children going back and forth in the courtyard, even her ears are ringing with the laughter of the children.
This was her home with Rhetoric Mo and the children, and their children must grow up happily in the safety of their home ……
At this time, a woman in her thirties from the outer courtyard was led over, Jiang Yishi recognized her, it was Meng Ruimo’s beloved mother-in-law, Sister-in-law Wu, who had been placed in the outer courtyard.
Wu Da Sister-in-Law reported in a low voice, “Great Grandma, Master Shizi is back, and just happened to meet with the old master, and went to the outer study to discuss the matter. Master Shizi asked the old slave to come and say a word to Great Grandmother.”
Jiang Yi shi immediately walked back to the courtyard with a smile on her face and hurriedly asked Shui Zhu and Grandma Wu to go to the kitchen to make a few dishes for dinner.
Meng Zhimo returned after half an hour.
He said, “There’s an emergency in the camp, I have to go on a business trip right away, so find me two sets of change of clothes.”
Going on a business trip at this time?
Even if it was even more important official business, Meng Zhimo couldn’t possibly go out at this time. Since he was going out, he must be going to Jiao Hai on personal business.
Meng Ruimo saw the realization in his young daughter-in-law’s eyes and sent the subordinate down.
The two of them sat on the bed, Jiang Yishi poured him a glass of wine and gave him some of his favorite dishes in his bowl.
“Hungry, fill your stomach first.”
Meng Zhimo drank the wine in his cup and finished the dishes in his bowl before laughing in a low voice, “The red-headed turtle has been found.”
Jiang Yishi was delighted, “Really found it?”
“Uh-huh. From what Lian Shan said, that guy was as big as a face bowl and would still shed tears. It was only caught by them after it was stuck in a rock crevice with an injured neck and couldn’t go to the sea. Afraid of accidents, they do not dare to bring the birth of the Bay without authorization, I have to go in person. King Ping said that if we catch the red-headed turtle first, we’ll give it to the Fanwu Monk and ask him to do something for us.”
Jiang Yishi didn’t know what kind of errand King Ping wanted to ask the Fanwu Monk to do, but she definitely couldn’t let them send the red-headed turtle into the mouth of the Fanwu Monk. Capturing the red-headed turtle was a clue provided by her, Jiang Yishi, and sent by Meng Zhimo. If the red-headed turtle died, the two of them would be the original culprits.
She said, ”Resignation Mo, ten thousand times impossible. The dream I had was the red-headed turtle committing suicide. It is a spirit creature that would rather die than give in, there is no way you guys can give it to the Wu Fan Monk. Moreover, the heavens have borrowed it to give us a warning, so if we offer it to the Wufan Monk, wouldn’t we be acting against the heavens, just like the Zhao family?”
Meng Zhimo knew that the last sentence was meant for King Ping.
