Chapter 9 Your Guests
The fat intestines were brined in two small pots, plus the meals in Jiang Yishi’s and Jiang Xun’s kitchens, it was quite rich.
Jiang Xun ate the fat intestines with a smile on his face, “Sister, this large intestine is more fragrant than what I ate in the restaurant.”
Jiang Yishi was secretly happy, of course it smells good, there are a few flavors of Chinese medicine added in here. It was Old Divine Doctor Shen who had tasted those medicines after eating the marinated flavors in the “Food”.
Seeing that he ate a little half of it alone, Jiang Yishi stopped, “Eating too much is not good. These are for you to keep and come back to eat tomorrow at noon.”
After the meal, the siblings stayed in the house and whispered.
“Sis, do you think Duke Cheng and Grand Madam Meng will really come to the house?”
“If Meng Shizi said he would come, he will definitely come.”
“What if grandmother and eldest uncle agree to the marriage? Hmph, it won’t work even if they agree. In our house, I’m the only man, I’ll go ahead and push back.”
Looking at the youngster with a serious face, Jiang Yixi laughed, “With my younger brother backing me up, sis is not afraid of anything.”
The little teenager pursed his lips and was happy, puffing out his chest, his thin waist straight.
Jiang Yishi said, “The younger brother should study well, and only when he has success will he have the right to speak, and his sister’s support will be harder.”
Jiang Xun knows that he is not good at homework, said, “I want to be a general when I grow up, even big brother Shan said I have a talent for learning martial arts.”
Jiang Yishi said, “To be a general, you also need to have talent and tactics. Otherwise, you can only be like uncle, looking for a way to become an idle official, no great success. Sister went to the countryside, I don’t know when the elders will be able to take her back. If you study hard and become a scholar of the martial arts or a scholar of the martial arts in a few years, not only will you have a future, but your sister will also have something to look forward to.”
Hearing that his sister will have a future if he gets a Scholar in Martial Arts, Jiang Xun was busy stating, “I will study hard. I’ll study hard, I’ll wait for several years, I’ll try my best to get into the martial arts program next year. With the capital to negotiate with grandmother, let her take my sister back earlier, and then find a good descendant for my sister.”
Jiang Yishi smiled with curved eyebrows, “Good, sis will wait.” She added, “When you are a general, you have to be like a general. Describe the general as calm, steady as a mountain, and unchanged in color when pressed by a mountain. Describe the general walking is the pace is robust, healthy step like flying, you see which general walking even jumping? Brother wants to be a general, first take the posture enough, do not be looked down on.”
Jiang Xun also knew that his walking posture was not good, but he just didn’t want to walk slowly. He touched his nose in embarrassment, “I’ll change, sis has to remind me.”
Saying this, he stood up and walked a few steps, due to walking too slowly and too deliberately some smooth turns.
Jiang Yishi complimented, “Right, that’s it. No hurry, walk step by step ……”
At the beginning of the hour, Jiang Xun went to the front yard for class, and instructed Jiang Yishi to go and talk to the old lady to make it clear that she could not agree to the marriage. Of course, can not betray Meng Shizi, only said “guess”.
After Jiang Xun left, Jiang Yishi sat in front of the window to see the garden full of fragrance.
In her previous life, when she learned that the Duke and Duchess of Cheng came to ask for marriage, the old lady was too busy to agree. As soon as the Duke and Duchess Cheng left, all the masters and dignified subordinates of the Jiangfu flocked to this small courtyard, and all of them rejoiced and congratulated Jiang Ermaida for being about to become the Meng Third Grandmother of the Duke and Duchess Cheng’s House……. Now that I think about it, at that time, it seemed that only Jiang Xun and Sister Wu were preoccupied with their hearts.
How scenic it was at first, how miserable it was later.
At the end of the hour, an excited Shui Lu ran into the courtyard door. Still in the courtyard, she shouted at Jiang Yishi by the window, “Second girl, there’s an honored guest, Duke Cheng and Grand Madam Meng are here.”
Last night when she went to the main courtyard, she heard the First Lady, Great Grandmother and Third Girl talking about the Second Girl daydreaming, she didn’t expect Duke Cheng and Great Lady Meng to come today. If they really came to say marriage, they should still stay by the second girl’s side ……
Jiang Yishi sank her face and said, “Duke Cheng and Great Lady Meng went to Ruyi Hall, what are you happy about?”
Shui Lu’s feet lurched, not knowing what to say.
Sister Wu worriedly said, “Miss, they won’t be here to raise hell, right?”
Jiang Yishi said, “No matter what they’re here for, they won’t kill me, and the worst that can happen is that they’ll drive me to the manor. I also want to go to the Hu Manor to live there for some time, doesn’t grandma want Uncle Wu and Brother Fu and Brother Gui?”
Wu Fu and Wu Gui were Sister Wu’s sons, of course she wanted them. Still, she said, “Two brown boys, what is there to think about. It’s just that the Huzhuang is simple, so I’m afraid that I’m wronging the girl.”
Jiang Yishi laughed, “It doesn’t matter if it’s simple or not, as long as you can live in peace.”
Two moments later, Ruyi Hall’s maid Luo Jin came. She left in a hurry and looked at Jiang Yishi with more respect and eagerness than usual.
Duke Cheng and First Lady Meng had begged for Third Duke Meng to marry the second girl, and the old lady and uncle actually refused. She felt that her own master must have retreated in order to advance.
Grand Madame Meng offered to meet the Second Miss again. If the Second Maiden agreed to the marriage, the Second Maiden would leap up the tree and become a phoenix. Third Duke Meng was not only talented and beautiful, he was also gentle as jade. They say that Meng Shizi’s eyes can’t be cured, and when he goes completely blind, Meng Third Duke will be the future Duke Cheng’s son.
Gosh ……
Luo Luo laughed and said, “Second girl, Duke Cheng and First Lady Meng are here, they’ve offered to meet you, and the old madam has asked you to go.”
As soon as Luo Luo’s words fell, Sister Wu and Shui Xiang and Shui Lu all looked at Jiang Yishi in unison. Especially Shui Lu, her eyes were glowing with excitement. Only after Sister Wu coughed lightly did she force down her laughter.
In that life, the old lady had painfully agreed to the marriage, so there was no such thing as letting Jiang Yishi go to Ruyi Hall. This time, perhaps because the old lady and uncle Jiang didn’t agree, Duke Cheng was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to go back to the old state bus and confirm it with Jiang Yishi again. If Jiang Yishi didn’t agree either, the Old Grand Duke wouldn’t be able to blame them.
Jiang Yishi made up a light makeup in the mirror. Looking at her body, she wore a light purple embroidered long coat and a moonlight white satin embroidered horse face skirt. Fresh, light and elegant, in line with her temperament, and also in line with what she wore from just out of her mourning period.
Shui Lu suggested, “Second girl, the Duke of State and Grand Madam Meng are honored guests, isn’t it better to dress up more gaudy?”
Jiang Yishi turned around as if she hadn’t heard and walked towards the door.
Luo Luo then followed. Shui Lu still wanted to follow, but was pulled back by Sister Wu, and Shui Xiang took a few steps forward to support Jiang Yishi.
Jiang Yishi was calm on the surface, but her heart was as hard as pins and needles, the fists in her sleeves clenched tightly.
It was this kind and gentle Big Madam Meng who made her suffer all the pains in that life, and finally designed that one act to repudiate her. The Jiang family didn’t even let her enter the door, and directly sent to the Qing Shi An ……
After the accident, she has always suspected that the person behind the scene is the eldest Mrs. Meng or the third son of Meng. At the same time to frame her and Meng Ruimo, not only can force Meng Ruimo son title was removed, but also drove away the identity of the lowly daughter-in-law, can be said to be a double win.
However, it is not entirely certain because Grand Madam Meng is very kind to Meng Ruimo.
Later on, after learning that Meng Ruimo committed suicide after handily killing the eldest lady of Meng, Jiang Yishi was truly certain that that incident was the work of the eldest lady of Meng ……
