Chapter 390 – Witnessing
Meng Zhimo and the other three Jiang family sons-in-law stood in the outer courtyard waiting for their daughters-in-law, with the Jiang family men accompanying them.
The women and children walked out of the second gate, each saying hello and getting into their own carriages.
This scene made the one person Jiang YiYan both covetous and ashamed, but there was nothing she could do about it.
She walked up to the window of Jiang Yishi’s carriage and said, “Second sister, I have no business going to Duke Cheng’s residence to talk to you.”
Jiang Yishi nonchalantly refused, “I have to manage the house and bring up the children, I’m busy and don’t have time to talk with you. If you have nothing to do, you should stay home to nurse your body and have a son or daughter.”
Jiang YiYan bit her lip, but still forced a smile and said, “Listen to second sister, I’ll take good care of my body. Our sisterhood is deep, I still want to ……”
Before the words were finished, the carriage had already slowly left.
Looking at the back by the carriage, Jiang YiYan’s eyes were full of coldness.
Mother actually didn’t fall off the cliff herself, but was pushed by someone. Needless to say, it must have been Jiang Yishi who made Meng Shizi do it. That bitch, counting all the suffering she suffered in the Jiang family on her mother, not only designed to force her to leave the house, but also killed her.
Only see the new people laugh, do not see the old people cry, the father does not remember the once husband and wife love can not be helped. Hate big brother and big sister in order to glory and wealth can also vigorously flatter that bitch, their own compatriot sister in turn is leaning back ……
Back to the Chengguo Gongfu already early lights.
The old man, the old lady, Cheng Guogong, Liu’s still playing poker “double key”. The old couple’s family, the Duke of Chengdu and Liu’s family.
This is Li Zhenbao last fall “invented” the poker game, a spread out immediately popular in the capital. Not only do women like it, but so do men.
This year, the four of them played all day, but also particularly serious. The old couple worked well together, and most of them won. Duke Cheng and Liu did not work well together, and most of them lost.
Liu’s face can be twisted out of the water, Chengguo Gong when the wrong card will use the eyes to gouge him.
Instead of blaming their daughter-in-law, the old couple would talk about their son.
“Look, you played the wrong card again.”
“Stupid, your daughter-in-law just reminded you, I heard it all, and you still haven’t heard it.”
Cheng Guogong also knows that his own card skills are the most stinky, see his parents win the eyebrow, will heave a few laughs, joked, “Let’s go back to match the secret code, touch the eyes out of what, touch the nose out of what ……,” and suddenly realized that,” I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to do this, but I’m sure I’ll be able to do it in a few minutes.
Said the two old mouth greatly happy, Liu also can not help but laugh.
The crowd gathered around them to watch a few hands of cards before going to the compartment for dinner.
The old lady was happy and said to her eldest son and daughter-in-law, “Tomorrow, the four of us will continue to play Double Snap.”
Duke Chengguo looked at the old man, and if the old man beat him, he would do so. Let him accompany the three women to play, he is not willing.
Compared to playing chess or playing double snaps, the old master preferred chess. But he understands that the old woman is trying to create more opportunities for her eldest son and daughter-in-law to be together, and he also hopes that the eldest couple can put aside their differences and become a real couple.
He quickly agreed, “Good, the eldest son and daughter-in-law will come to Fu An Hall at the beginning of the day tomorrow. The others should not come over, each house will play by themselves.”
The old master habitually regarded the big house’s family member as Meng Ruimo, Cheng Guo Gong which house doesn’t count.
The next day, the people of the second house went to the second lady’s place, and the people of the third house went to the third lady’s place. Meng Ruimo today rest, sent Meng Xiu and Huang Xin invited to the floating residence.
Several children a cat also each ordered the dishes they wanted to eat.
Even Yin’er ordered, “I want to eat cow’s milk and eggs.”
It was the steamed eggs with buttermilk.
Hua Hua ordered the same squirrel fish that she couldn’t get enough of. There were no fresh tomatoes now, but there was tomato sauce.
When the meal was set on the table, Jiang Yishi felt that the fish smelled particularly fishy. She couldn’t help but fight a bit of dry retching and covered her mouth with a hanky again.
Her heart fluttered before she remembered that the monthly letter had already passed by a few days, and she had actually forgotten about it when she was busy every day.
Before the end of the year, I let Sister Wu go home for the New Year, Shui Ling is on marriage leave, Meixiang is on maternity leave, Shui Qing is mainly to wait for Hua Hua, and the ones who serve Jiang Yishi closely are a few less useful little girls.
If those few old people in, would have reminded Jiang Yishi of this matter.
Jiang Yishi was secretly pleased, and had the fish moved to a place a little farther away from her.
After noon, Meng Xiu and Huang Xin went back to rest, saying that they would still come over for dinner.
When there was no one else in the house, Jiang Yishi told Meng Zhimo about the possibility of pregnancy.
Meng Zhimo’s eyes were filled with joy, and he busily said, “You have to be careful. Let Sister Wu come back tomorrow, those little girls are not capable of doing anything.”
Jiang Yishi also meant the same thing.
The two of them were talking in whispers when the maid came to report, “Master Shizi, Great Grandma, the in-laws Great Grandma is here.”
Great Grandma Jiang had come, or was it the third day of the Lunar New Year?
Jiang Yishi and Meng Zhimo looked at each other, something should have happened to the Jiang family.
Jiang Yishi went to the hall house alone.
Great Grandma Jiang walked in with a very ugly face.
Jiang Yishi asked, “Sister-in-law, something happened at home?”
Great Grandma Jiang nodded and didn’t say anything.
The maids served tea, and Jiang Yishi waved her hand for them to retreat.
Only then did Great Grandma Jiang whisper, “Auntie, my family’s Grand Master asked me to come and tell you, so that you can have an idea in your heart.”
Jiang Yishi inexplicably saw Jiang YiYan’s perverse appearance in front of her eyes and guessed that perhaps it had something to do with Jiang YiYan.
Jiang Da Grandma’s voice was lowered, “Yesterday, Third Aunt Granny, alas …… she told my family’s grandpa yesterday that a few days ago she went to the Greenstone Nunnery to offer incense, and listened to the Zhi Neng there say …… those words, and my family’s grandpa didn’t believe it. ”
She glanced at Jiang Yishi, very difficult to say.
Zhineng was Zhou’s maid before, and later followed Zhou to leave the house. After Zhou’s death, she continued to work as an aunt at Qing Shi Nunnery.
Jiang Yishi asked, “Say what?”
Great Grandma Jiang said, “Zhineng said that Master Wujing of the Greenstone Nunnery told her that when my mother-in-law fell off the cliff, Master Wujing happened to be not far away and witnessed everything. She saw with her own eyes that my mother-in-law was pushed there, rather than losing her footing and falling off the cliff herself. Master Wujing was so scared that when the officials went to investigate, she didn’t dare to tell the truth. It was only later when she was condemned by her conscience that she told Zhineng the truth.
Third Auntie was furious when she heard it and said that Second Auntie must have asked Meng Shizi to do it, because the person who hated my mother-in-law the most was Second Auntie. Third Auntie also asked my Grand Master to join her and find a way to avenge my mother’s death. My Grand Master didn’t believe her and rebuked her. Said that if it was really Meng Shizi who did it, it was impossible for anyone to find out ……
Alas, Third Auntie didn’t listen to advice and said that my grand master only recognizes riches and wealth but not his mother. Grand Master asked me to come and tell Second Aunt Granny to guard against Third Aunt Granny some, she’s really crazy.”
Jiang Jin and Great Grandma Jiang were furious. Jiang YiYan was reckless and impulsive, and they were afraid that she would do something to harm Jiang YiShi and drag their big house down with her. Meng Zhimo was the one who protected the Emperor, how could he not be able to protect his daughter-in-law.
Of course, they did not believe that it was Jiang YiYan and Meng RuMo who did it.
