The news that the Emperor had rewarded Zhongxian County Uncle's Mansion suddenly spread among the noble circles. I thought that Zhongxian County County Uncle's Mansion was just the Emperor's impromptu reward for loyal ministers. It had been more than a month since the Zhongxian County Uncle's family moved to Kyoto, but the Emperor had no reaction.
Isn't it?
However, when many people gradually thought that the emperor had forgotten the Zhongxian family, the emperor suddenly rewarded the Zhongxian family. Although it was just some money and silk, it was still a reward, which proved that the emperor had not forgotten Zhongxian.
Isn’t this Bo’s family?
Tian Minyan took the reward list, gave the chamberlain a big red envelope, sent the chamberlain away, and had people carry all the reward items into the main courtyard.
What she asked for was gold, and Emperor Rende rewarded her with three thousand taels of gold. In addition, there was also a bunch of pearls, four pieces of brocade, and some jewelry. When the red silk was opened, it really dazzled everyone.
"Well, why did the emperor suddenly reward so many things?" Luo Shi said very uneasily.
Tian Minyan smiled and said: "This is the emperor's favor."
She picked up a filigree red gold phoenix hairpin set with purple sapphire and looked at it. This exquisite handiwork, produced by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was indeed unmatched by jewelry shops outside.
She inserted the phoenix hairpin into Luo Shi's temples, looked around and said, "Mom, this hairpin really suits you."
Luo Shi was startled, stretched out his hand to pull it out, and said angrily: "How can you wear such a fancy thing? Besides, this is a reward from the emperor. You are older, so you should wear more jewelry on your head."
It’s an insult to the title of County Lord.”
"Mine is not my mother's, she is still young, why can't I wear it? It looks great to me, well, this rocker also suits you very well." Tian Minyan picked up another green rocker and inserted it into her breasts
On the temples, he said with a smile.
"If you insert so many, you won't be able to become a flower hen." Luo Shi said with a smile: "Stop fooling around and put it away."
"The old lady is here." The girl called outside. Tian Minyan, mother and daughter, looked at each other and suppressed their smiles.
Jiang walked in quickly. When he saw the new jewelry on Luo's head, his eyes were about to burst into flames. When he saw the dazzling jewelry on the side, his eyes were even brighter.
I wish I could pounce on them and take them all into my arms.
Tian Minyan was amused and said quietly: "Why is the old lady here?"
Jiang curled his lips and said, "I want to go out for a walk this afternoon, so let me make arrangements."
"Oh? Where do you want to go, old lady?"
"I just walked around and stayed in the house all day long. I was bored and flustered." Jiang said absentmindedly, her triangular eyes kept glancing at the plate of jewelry and said, "Is this the gift from the emperor?" Then she left.
past.
"Yes, the emperor gave it to me." Tian Minyan emphasized the word "I", looked at Jixiang and said: "Jixiang, put it away, remember to make a record, and don't lose it. You can't throw away something given by the emperor."
"Yes, Miss." Ji Xiang quickly picked up a red silk cover and blocked Jiang's greedy sight.
Jiang was so filled with hatred that Jixiang's little hooves ignored her even more. It was really hateful.
"You are lucky. You have so many jewelry at such a young age. I am old and don't have as many pieces as you. How can you wear so much? I see a few pieces that look a bit old-fashioned."
He said through gritted teeth.
The meaning is very clear. Mom, I don’t have any jewelry. Please give me two pieces quickly.
Tian Minyan pursed her lips and smiled and said: "The old lady was just joking. How can any girl find it difficult to have too much jewelry? I can expect to fill a big cabinet."
Jiang Shi snorted, glanced at her coldly, but said to Luo Shi: "It's not good for children to be too lucky. Children are not sensible, and you, the mother-in-law, don't know that?"
Luo Shi lowered her eyebrows and said calmly: "My daughter is blessed with the emperor's grace and blessings."
"You..." Mrs. Jiang was so angry that she glared at her fiercely, snorted and walked away. Before leaving the house, she added in a low voice: "Let's see how good you are."
After hearing this, Luo Shi's face sank, and he was about to step forward to reason. Tian Minyan quickly grabbed her, shook her head and said, "Mom, she is just a talker, so why should she be as knowledgeable as her? It's not a shame. She is jealous, it's her business.
"
"Without her status, she just wouldn't be rich or famous." Luo Shi said angrily.
Tian Minyan snorted. With Jiang's temper, he wouldn't expect her to change and be open-minded after arriving in Kyoto.
"Miss, Miss Yao from Zuo Xiangfu sent someone to deliver a post." Hongye walked in holding a post.
Tian Minyan took it and took a look. The post was very delicately made, with an orchid painted on the cover. When she opened it, a faint fragrance came out, which made people enchanted. It showed that they had put a lot of thought into it.
Looking at those words again, Juanxiu’s small regular script invites her to attend the tea poetry party at Shufang Book Club.
Luo Shi came over to take a look and asked excitedly: "What, a lady official invited you to play?"
It would be an understatement to say that their family had just arrived, and they were not familiar with life. Luo Shi secretly felt that if his children could get to know more children of the same age, they would not be too lonely. As they slowly get into the circle, they would not be too lonely.
Being squeezed out.
Therefore, when the girl heard that the daughter of Zuo Xiangfu sent a post, she was very excited.
"What are you kidding about? You just want to see your daughter embarrassed." Tian Minyan smiled sarcastically and said, "Mom, you don't really think they welcome your daughter like this, do you? I heard there will be a talent show at the Poetry Club Tea Party."
Luo Shi's smile froze, his expression changed, and he said, "Then I won't go."
"Go, why don't you go?" Tian Minyan smiled slightly: "If I don't go, wouldn't it mean that I feel guilty and afraid, and I have earned the reputation of being without virtue or talent? Even if I have no talent or virtue, I won't be afraid of them.
"
Who said that a talented woman is good, but she can't say that a woman without talent is virtuous?
But it was said that Jiang returned to Songbaiyuan angrily, sat down and shouted: "Magpie, bring me some tea."
"Old lady, please have some tea." After a while, the girl Magpie offered her a cup of tea and took a careful look at the old lady's face.
Jiang took it and took a sip, but it was so hot that she screamed in pain, and threw the tea cup directly at the magpie: "You damn girl, you want to burn me to death, you are not a good-hearted bitch, your heart will be rotten and you will drink it."
.”
Mrs. Jiang was very aggressive towards the girl in the yard. With such a throw, the tea hit the magpie. She instinctively blocked it with her hand. She only felt pain in her hand, but she didn't dare to scream. She just knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
: "Old madam, please spare my life, I didn't mean to do this."
The magpie was so frightened that she kowtowed and begged for mercy, fearing that this savage and unreasonable old lady would punish her again. She was very scared these days.
"Get out of here." Jiang cursed for a while and said angrily.
Magpie hurriedly picked up the broken tea cup and left quickly, returning to his room. When he saw the red back of his hand, he couldn't help but shed tears of grievance.
"What's wrong with you? Oh my god, why did you do this?" Xijuan exclaimed when he saw her red and swollen hands, and quickly took out the ointment from the cabinet.
"Xijuan, why are we so unlucky that we are assigned to serve this old woman? She is so grumpy, so rude, and so petty, she is just a rude old peasant woman. We are obviously the same family, why is there such a big gap?
?How comfortable you are serving the lady." The magpie whined.
Xijuan was startled, and hurriedly walked to the door, took a look outside, and lowered her voice and said: "You are also stupid. This is justified. Otherwise, the old lady is also the master, and the slave is criticizing the master behind his back. Do you still want it?"
Dead?"
Magpie was stunned, but lowered his head and cried: "I am telling the truth. The madam and the eldest lady are both such gentle masters, and I have never seen them beating or scolding the girl. As for us, we are used as a punching bag every three days. Wuwu.
, I would rather go to the lady’s courtyard and work as a rough maid.”
Xijuan carefully took the ointment and applied it on her, sighed and said, "Be patient, I heard that the old lady and the old man will not stay here long. I am afraid they will have to go back to Qingping in autumn."
The magpie was overjoyed, looked at her with tears in her eyes and asked, "Really?"
"Yes." Xijuan nodded and said, "So just bear with it."
"Blessed by Bodhisattva, if this Buddha is really sent away, the faithful woman is willing to eat ten days of fasting." The magpie laughed through tears and clasped his hands together.
Xijuan shook her head, "Autumn, it would be better if it came sooner. This old lady, she can't stand it anymore."
Jiang didn't know that she was rejected by the two girls. A cup of tea was not enough. Thinking of Tian Minyan's mother and daughter's faces, as well as the dazzling jewelry, her heart felt like it was scratched by a cat, itching and hurting.
"Come here, where have they all died? They're all so lazy, they're so lazy." Mrs. Jiang shouted again.
The old man walked in with a birdcage and said with a stern face: "Why are you so angry? I told you well before coming to Kyoto not to cause trouble for the third child and the others, but you are making things worse."
"What can happen to me? Do you think they are good and filial? Bah! If they are good, they won't even give you money." Jiang said angrily.
"I know, you are thinking about the rewards that Yan Yatou and the others have received again. You are already dozens of years old, but you still think that some of them are not rewarded. The third child is too short and you wear short clothes and eat and drink? Look at your head
Even the landlord Chen’s family in the village doesn’t wear as many as you.” The old man pointed at the gold and silver hairpins on her head.
Mr. Jiang's face turned red and he said, "You know nothing."
If she didn't wear it, why wouldn't those damn girls steal it? Each one of them is smarter than a ghost.
"I don't understand, but you understand. Let me tell you, in this room, you and I can make trouble no matter what. When we go outside, please restrain yourself and don't embarrass the third child." The old man warned: "Otherwise, you will
Go back to Yangmei Village by yourself."
"Of course you want me to go back so that you can have a beautiful concubine to take care of you, bah! You are such an old fool, you are only dreaming!" Jiang said bitterly.
"You are unreasonable." The old man blushed angrily and ran away with the birdcage.
Jiang cursed a few words and sat down angrily, "No, Luo and the others have got so much jewelry and gold, how can they catch one or two pieces with Lao San?"
