Mrs. Jiang looked at Jiang Changxi with a little hope: "Besides dividing the family, are there other ways to make me the master of the family and live my own life?"
Jiang Changxi felt that Jiang Er was stupid and had no brains, so he said something irrelevant: "Second brother-in-law, are you sure about taking the provincial examination this time?"
Lady Jiang: "I heard from my husband that I just went to test the water. I don't know much about it."
Of course, people are just saying this conservatively. If they say they are very sure but fail to pass the exam later, wouldn’t it be a joke?
At this time, Jiang Er still had his heart in mind.
Jiang Changxi didn't ask any more questions, and just said: "The second brother-in-law's studies are the most important after all. If he is lucky enough to be on the list, the second brother-in-law should also consider going to the national examination. You and your wife are still young, and your children are also important. It's not good.
I asked you to wait at home, and the second brother-in-law doesn’t even have anyone around him who understands the cold and the hot."
Mrs. Jiang: "Can't you just say it? People listening will be anxious."
Jiang Changxi: "Wouldn't it be better to let the second brother-in-law have a good harvest, study, and have children achieve success together? There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and the worst is not having an heir."
Studying in vain, this sentence should not be used at this time, when should it be used?
Let me ask you, are you reading all this to constrain yourself?
Mrs. Jiang was very happy. Yes, she went with her husband to try it out. Then she knew that she was worried about her future: "My husband naturally can't put down his studies, so let me accompany him to study. This is good, but what if something happens?"
What should I do if I can’t get pregnant?”
Jiang Changxi: "Is that your fault? The second brother-in-law only reads books from saints and values his studies. As a daughter-in-law, anything but support is support and cannot be disturbed in any form or under any excuse."
The second lady Jiang was very excited when she heard this. She could still be like this. The second lady Jiang said: "This is good, this is good, but I can't get pregnant. That's because I am only focused on my husband's studies, so I will call you cunning."
Jiang Changxi said with a dark face: "If you can speak, just speak. If you can't speak, just shut up."
Mrs. Jiang glanced sideways at Jiang Changxi, her face full of joy: "But what if this provincial examination is not ideal."
Jiang Changxi thought she was stupid, but seeing that Jiang Er was used to being rude all day long, he couldn't see her being so decadent: "The second brother-in-law is so qualified. It's definitely not the second brother-in-law's fault that his grades are not satisfactory."
Listening to Jiang Changxi's categorical words, Mrs. Jiang agreed very much, but she was asked: "Whose fault is that?"
Jiang Changxi disliked Mrs. Jiang's stupidity: "That means the school in the county is not suitable for the second brother-in-law to study."
Mrs. Jiang finally got smart for once: "Come to study in a school in Baoding Prefecture?"
Jiang Changxi: "It doesn't matter what other people say, it's up to the old county magistrate to make the decision."
Mrs. Jiang: "My father-in-law must be willing. If we hadn't been newly married, my husband would not have gone back to the county to study."
So you are still holding back. If the second brother-in-law really does not do well in the exam, Jiang Er will definitely be punished by his mother-in-law at home.
Mrs. Jiang's eyes were full of light: "I'll talk to my mother when I get back."
Jiang Changxi: "Are you able to decide this matter?"
Mrs. Jiang was anxious: "Then what do you mean? If you say it, it doesn't mean you didn't say it."
Jiang Changxi: "Where is your man? Why do you keep it? Is it for the New Year?"
Jiang Er immediately became unhappy: "Why did you say it so unpleasantly? I'm not stupid. I knew I shouldn't come to you. I didn't even say a single word."
They didn't even enter the yard and just left. I was anxious to go home and discuss the matter.
Jiang Changxi looked at the angry Second Lady Jiang: "Are you leaving now?"
Mrs. Jiang: "Why don't you leave? Stay and celebrate the New Year?"
You said you don't have other abilities. To use Jiang Changxi's words, blocking Jiang Changxi is a bad thing. If your brain doesn't grow when it should, it won't be used in the right place.
Mrs. Jiang's steps were brisk all the way back, she suddenly became enlightened, and there were birds singing and the fragrance of flowers ahead.
Mrs. Jiang Er was still wondering. Her daughter was not in good spirits when she came back from the county town. How could she go to Sanniang's place for such a short period of time and then come back changed and in high spirits?
It just seems a bit disturbing. Every time my daughter behaves like this, she always looks for trouble.
But now the situation in her own house is that the children are all acting up, and no one has the same experience as her. What should she do?
Second Lady Jiang: "Mom, if nothing happens, I will go back tomorrow. If I stay out for a long time, my mother-in-law will be worried."
Mrs. Jiang Er felt that it was mysterious. When her uncle was not at home, her daughter was not so active in going back to her husband's house. She asked, "What did you say when you went to Sanniang's house?"
Mrs. Jiang: "She, in addition to running against me, is running against me. I have never said anything to her."
Madam Jiang, you are so tough-spoken, how can I squeeze you and make you feel happy?
Mrs. Jiang Er still felt sorry for her daughter, and knew about her troubles: "Mom, I'll find a doctor for you, and I'll leave after seeing her tomorrow."
Mrs. Jiang: "Let me worry about it. I suddenly realized that this child is not too anxious."
Mrs. Jiang's eyes were widened, and when she came back she was still complaining that she was not up to expectations: "Don't talk nonsense, how can you ignore the important matters of your heirs?"
Mrs. Jiang was in a good mood and coaxed her own mother: "Listen to your mother, I'm not sensible, so you have to worry about it."
Mrs. Jiang Er: "Don't be hot-headed and act recklessly. I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup Sanniang has poured into you."
Mrs. Jiang Er: "Mom, do you think I am less thoughtful than her? No wonder I have always been unable to defeat her since I was a child. She is cunning and full of bad intentions."
Mrs. Jiang Er: "Knowing that you are short-sighted, you should stop fighting with Sanniang and listen more to see how Sanniang behaves."
Mrs. Jiang Er was very unconvinced and curled her lips, but for now, she had to listen to Jiang San. She had to admit that her eyesight was better than hers.
Lady Jiang: "Mom, can you help me look at the house in Baoding Mansion?"
Mrs. Jiang Er's scalp went numb when she heard this, and she asked: "What do you want to do?"
Lady Jiang: "My daughter is thinking that if her husband does not do well in the exam, she should make preparations earlier and study in another college."
My daughter definitely doesn't have this kind of heart. No wonder she was in such a good mood when she came back from Sanniang's place.
Mrs. Jiang Er: "If you really come to Baoding to study, your parents-in-law will arrange it. Why are you so worried? Don't mess around and let your parents-in-law think that you don't like your husband. Then you will be punished."
Mrs. Jiang felt that she was being short-sighted and narrow-minded. She really shouldn't be the one to prepare the house: "Mother"
Mrs. Jiang Er: "If my uncle really comes to study in Baoding Mansion, I can still wrong you."
Mrs. Jiang Er looked at her daughter worriedly: "You, please learn from Sanniang."
Mrs. Jiang was not happy anymore: "Are you imitating her and being so mean-spirited? Mom, you are her mother or mine."
