A major event like becoming emperor is closely related to the food and clothing of ordinary people, let alone the big shots.
When the southern army reached Wuhan, it was unclear whether it would spread to East China and what the attitude of the Xi family was.
Cheng Hui and Fei Ersan wanted to go home, and at least they wanted to give the old man some reassurance.
However, the situation was uncertain and the road was inconvenient. It was very likely that something would happen if we went back now. Cheng Hui was calm in this regard and advised Fei Ersan to stay put for the time being.
If both of them are fine, grandpa will feel more at ease.
But in the end he was extremely anxious.
Brother and sister Jiang Yanjin returned to Yancheng this Saturday.
The first thing I did when I came back was to congratulate Yun Qiao on her wedding. They didn't give any gifts, so they planned to make up for them; Yun Qiao didn't want them, so she asked them to treat her to dinner.
"Lingdang, I thought you wouldn't reply." Yun Qiao said.
Jiang Yanyu sighed.
Mr. Jiang answered: "The family is in a state of chaos. My mother feels that the Jiang family's official career will not last long. If something happens, the family may want to send Ayu out."
Ayu was divorced by the Sheng family and is currently in an embarrassing situation, staying in the capital to make people laugh.
Considering both aspects, when my mother asked me to leave, I would take her with me and live with me for a while. I happened to be busy, so it would be good for her to help me with some household chores."
Yun Qiao nodded.
She asked again: "How is Jingli doing now?"
"The opposition was louder. Feng Shuai returned to Zhili so handsomely that the others were more or less unconvinced. Instead, it was just a bunch of old people and young people who entertained themselves." Jiang Yanjin said.
Jiang Yanyu added, "My uncle also opposes proclaiming himself emperor. My uncle said that a rabbit's tail cannot grow."
Yun Qiao said nothing more.
Those who think that the imperial system is terrible are just one-sided; others think that tradition is more important and that restoring the imperial system is suitable for China.
Compared with the beginning, in just a few months, some people are already wavering.
"... Let's not talk about this anymore." Jiang Yanjin changed the subject, "Auntie, lend me your notes to copy. I have missed nearly three weeks of classes.
I have to go to Yanmen, how is Jingxin doing? I want to meet her."
Yun Qiao: "Actually, I missed nearly two weeks of classes because I was on wedding leave."
Jiang Yanjin: "..."
The three of them chatted quite happily.
Because Jiang Yanjin was rebellious, she secretly did business under the family's nose and accumulated a lot of money. With Yanmen as her backing, the fall of the Jiang family would have little impact on him.
He would rather have them fall.
When a whale falls, everything comes alive. For a family like the Jiang family, it would be better to die.
"This time, we have nothing to do with the Xi family at all. We really have to move out from Nanyuan." Jiang Yanjin said with a smile.
Yun Qiao: "Do you have a place to live?"
"There are several houses that my parents visited before, and we visited them together." Ling Ding answered nearby, "We want to repair them briefly."
Yun Qiao pondered.
"What do you think?" she asked Jiang Yanjin, "Do you think it's better to live outside or at Xi's house?"
"Of course the Xi family is good." Jiang Yanjin said, "It's just that it's not very suitable. If the monarchy doesn't last long and my father goes out of power, I'm afraid the servants of the Xi family will look down on us."
But living in Xi's house is indeed very convenient.
The first one is safety.
Jiang Yanjin sometimes goes out for half a month and leaves his sister at home alone, which makes him a little worried. However, Xi Mansion is different. It is well guarded and safe inside.
The second is convenience, you don’t have to worry about eating and drinking.
The Jiang family sent food expenses to the Xi family last year, and the Xi family did not refuse, so they felt at ease with each other.
"... Let me tell you, I am now the seventh wife of the Xi family." Yun Qiao said, "You are my friends, so there is nothing wrong with using the Xi Mansion."
