Chapter 278: Abrupt
Jiang Yixi was pregnant, and the dowry for Meng Hua was mainly handled by Second Lady Meng and Meng Yue together with several stewards of the outer courtyard. Because Meng Ciyue brought a large sum of money to Yongcheng to purchase land and a house, Second Lady Meng could not afford to do more.
Let Meng Yue be in charge of the dowry matters.
Because of Meng Hua's special situation, the stewards used shoddy goods when purchasing. They thought Meng Hua would not find out, and they were not afraid even if he did.
Meng Yue is in charge of this matter. Meng Hua will think that Meng Yue hates the Fu family and is waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. With Meng Hua's forbearance now and fear of Meng Cimo, no matter how angry he is, he has no choice but to eat Huanglian and endure it himself.
And the manager would definitely not dare to do such a big thing by himself, and there is a high possibility that Mrs. Meng will be involved in it.
Meng Yue and Nanny Lin discovered the clues, but they were afraid of offending the second wife and did not dare to make a fuss. They were also afraid not to make a fuss, fearing that if the elders knew about it, they would think that Meng Yue was greedy...
Jiang Yixi looked at the little girl. The seven-year-old child thought much more clearly than her mother.
Jiang Yixi felt depressed, but she still smiled and said, "Okay, I understand. When your uncle comes back, I will discuss with him what to do so that your mother will not be wronged."
It is indeed difficult to make a fuss about this matter. If Mrs. Meng really did it, it would not look good on the Second Master, the Second Master, and the Fourth Master.
Jiang Yixi believed that the three of them were not too greedy for that little money. After the old man's training, they were more useful than Duke Cheng, and they were good helpers for Meng Cimo.
She first quietly sent someone to investigate, and if the second wife was really involved, she would ask Meng Cimo to tell Meng Ciyan quietly. Meng Ciyan would settle the matter privately and fill the gap. It would also give the second wife a face and give the second wife a face.
lesson……
Housekeepers will always get some benefits, except for the silly Meng Yue. Even Meng Ciyue who went to Yongcheng with a large sum of money would get some money in disguise.
If the water is extremely clear, there will be no fish. As long as it is not excessive, Meng Cimo and Jiang Yixi will turn a blind eye.
But you can't get benefits and still think about throwing dirty water on others. Don't think that others don't know what she did.
Meng Yue did not live up to expectations, but Meng Cimo didn't allow others to bully her, so she didn't allow others to bully her either.
At least Meng Yue has made progress and discovered that there is an inequity between physical objects and value, and some people are greedy for ink.
Jiang Yixi asked the girl to wash Huang Xin's face again before going to Fu'an Hall with her.
The winter sun is bright. Although there is no warmth, it is bright and comfortable.
Jiang Yixi did not sit in the sedan chair, but held Huang Xin's hand and walked slowly.
Huang Xin's waxy voice sounded, "Sister-in-law, thank you and uncle. My mother rarely cries now, she mostly smiles."
Jiang Yixi squeezed her little hand and said, "People grow through hardship. Your mother made progress, and she discovered something was wrong."
Huang Xin chuckled a few times, her laughter was clear, cheerful and proud at the same time.
"I want to tell my mother that my aunt said she is smart."
Jiang Yi smiled happily.
When I arrived at Fu'an Hall, I could hear chatter and laughter in the side room even before I entered the room, especially the second lady's voice.
Without Mrs. Fu, the third lady is silent again, and it seems that the second lady is good at dancing and will please the elders.
The next day, the sky was gray and light snow fell again.
Aunt Wu put her master on the sedan chair and repeatedly told Shuiling and Mei Xiang who were following her to pay attention to her master's safety.
Sitting in the sedan chair, Jiang Yixi felt relaxed as if she could finally take a break.
After today, she would go to the Grand Princess' Mansion every four days. To be honest, she didn't want to go there at all.
He still didn't show up. I heard that she was so ill that she couldn't even get out of bed.
Wash the eyes of the eldest princess, perform eye acupuncture treatment, and finally acupuncture.
As soon as Jiang Yixi buried the needle, noisy footsteps came from outside, breaking the silence in the room.
The girl came in to report that the Prince Consort accompanied Prince Wen and Prince Yong to visit the eldest princess.
Xie and others were very puzzled. The relatives of the clan who were supposed to come had been here a few days ago, including King Wen and Prince Yong. Why were they here again today? I had never noticed that these two people had a particularly warm relationship with the eldest princess before.
ah.
No matter how warm the relationship is, if a female relative is sick and the male juniors visit frequently, it will be rude.
They were great-nephews and could not enter the bedroom, so they only greeted the eldest princess outside the bedroom door through the curtain.
King Wen bowed and said, "My great-nephew has received a century-old ginseng root, and I came here to honor my great aunt and hope that my great aunt will recover soon."
Li Kai also bowed and said, "My grandnephew will go to Zhaoming Temple tomorrow to copy scriptures for the imperial aunt and stay vegetarian for three days."
The eldest princess of Yichang cannot see with her eyes, but her heart is clear.
Li Shao's mind was full of drama, and even the emperor and I had never cared about him, so how could he care about her, his great-aunt.
And Li Kai, as his great-nephew, his relationship with her was not so good that he went to the nunnery to copy scriptures and become a vegetarian. He was obviously going to see Little Treasure, but he ran to her to say this.
These two boys are like this, is it possible that they are seeking something from themselves?
It seems that he has nothing that they can ask for. Especially Li Kai, Xiao Zhenbao is the Queen Mother's most important person, so he should ask her for his request.
Thinking so, he still said politely, "Good boy, you have your heart."
Prince Consort Zheng invited them to sit down and drink tea in a side room, and briefly introduced the eldest princess's condition. He still dared not open his eyes, but after washing his eyes with Jiang's medicinal soup, his eyes were no longer so painful...
After hearing this, Li Kai laughed and said, "Mrs. Meng does have some real skills in diagnosing and treating eye diseases..."
He quickly stopped before he finished speaking, and picked up the tea bowl with an awkward smile to drink tea. He was not willing to admit that his sister had "cross-eyed".
Then he smiled and said, "My sister is getting more and more handsome. Maybe she plays well with Mrs. Meng. They say they are becoming more and more alike."
These words made several women in the bedroom curl their lips slightly.
He really dared to say it!
King Wen glanced at Li Kai. When he went to the theater that day, even the beautiful little Caifeng was called ugly by him, and he praised Li Zhenbao so unrealistically. However, this man never spoke with conscience.
Although he speaks without conscience, he has never looked down on himself. He is much better than his brothers and sisters who have their tails raised to the sky. If I can really get what I want in the future, I will treat him better.
King Wen did not answer Li Kai's words. He turned his head and smiled at the consort Zheng, "Mrs. Meng is a boudoir girl. She has such good skills. She is better than the imperial doctor. She is truly a woman as good as a man." Then he remembered it,
"Meng Shizi's eyes suddenly healed. Maybe it was Mrs. Meng who treated him, right?"
Old Prince Consort Zheng waved his hands hurriedly and said, "That's not true. The old doctor from Shuzhong who cured Prince Meng's eyes was found through Zheng Ji's help. When the eldest princess had bad eyesight, I also sent people to Shuzhong
I looked for it, but unfortunately the old man passed away a few months ago.
"As for asking Cimo's wife to come and treat the eldest princess's eye disease, I heard from Mrs. Meng that the Jiang family had received guidance from Master Yuhe and a strange man, and also liked to study medical books, so I asked her to give it a try and see if she could cure it.
