"Hurry up and help your aunt up!" The eldest princess directed the servants, and then looked at Wenchang Hou, "Uncle, how should you deal with this matter?"
General Jiang snorted and said nothing.
"I think that since my aunt admits it, she should return the money. It's not easy for Mrs. Qin to be single and weak. Besides, it's not a big sum of money anyway."
"If it's not convenient for my uncle to deal with it, I can help."
When the ladies heard this, their faces turned pale, but they did not dare to speak.
Mrs. Mujin was more courageous: "Master Marquis, I am willing to sell all my jewelry, clothes, and house to pay back the money for the Marquis. I am the Marquis's person, and I should share the joys and sorrows with him."
The eldest princess quickly praised her: "This lady understands the righteousness well. Even if you all sold your private residence, this prince's mansion is not very big, so there is no problem for you to live in it. Besides, I heard that you all have children. , then it’s even more necessary to move back to the Hou Mansion. How can this uncle’s heir live outside? "
Things have come to this point. The remaining ladies pondered what the eldest princess said and felt that although what she said made sense, they were really unwilling to accept it. But if Mrs. Mujin is allowed to move in, if they don't come, they will lose the opportunity to become the county monarch.
It is fun to live a small life in your own private house, but you cannot miss the battle to win the heir.
Mrs. Hibiscus is really an interesting person. As soon as the other ladies nod, she immediately takes off the hairpins, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.
Her personal maid conjured a piece of cloth from nowhere and packed it all together for her.
Her move made her seem particularly righteous.
Not to be outdone, the other ladies quickly imitated her example and started picking off jewelry one after another. What a coincidence. In fact, they usually don't wear so much jewelry, but today they came here specially to participate in the war, so they almost wore most of the jewelry.
I have to say that Marquis Wenchang was really happy to spend other people's money to give it to his woman. Although Qin Xiangxiang had never seen or worn these jewelry, looking at the exquisite appearance, he knew that they must be valuable.
The eldest princess stepped forward to be the matchmaker again: "I will be the one to decide. If these jewelry are sold, they are worth seven or eight thousand guan. For the sake of my face, Madam Qin will convert them into 8,000 guan." Come on. As for the remaining money, my uncle will definitely collect it and return it to you soon."
"Okay." Qin Xiangxiang was also very happy, "I will write a note to Lord Marquis right now." As she spoke, she took out paper, pen and ink from her sleeve pocket.
While Qin Xiangxiang was writing the receipt, the eldest princess was not idle either. She and Marquis Wenchang said with a smile: "Uncle, this aunt is not in good health, so she must be taken care of. Come see her tomorrow in Xinyue."
Marquis Wenchang's old teeth were almost broken: "How dare you worry about the eldest princess?"
"We are all relatives, how can we say it is troublesome." The eldest princess said, "When I go back later, I will pass by my aunt's house. Uncle, look..."
"Then I'll have to trouble the eldest princess." Marquis Wenchang gritted his teeth.
"Also, my cousin died young. I can understand the grief of my uncle and aunt. However, it is not appropriate for my cousin to lie here all the time. It is better for my uncle to let my cousin be buried as soon as possible. .”
The eldest princess kept calling her uncle, but every word she said was stuck in Marquis Wenchang's throat.
"Ms. Qin, have you finished writing?" The eldest princess looked at Qin Xiangxiang with kind eyes. Is there any young lady who carries paper, pen and ink with her? Madam Qin is really unique. Could it be that she had expected that she would follow and she would be able to get back the money she lent? If this is the case, Mrs. Qin is really treacherous.
However, it would be great if her true son was as cunning as Mrs. Qin. The eldest princess thought, her thoughts moving slightly.
Perhaps before driving Mrs. Qin away from Prince Mu, Zhen'er can be brought into contact with Mrs. Qin, so that Zhen'er can experience the dangers of the world. The eldest princess deeply felt that this was a very necessary thing.
The bag of jewelry worth 8,000 guan was so heavy that Qin Xiangxiang almost couldn't hold it, but the feeling of holding 8,000 guan was really wonderful.
She followed the eldest princess diligently and strenuously, while General Jiang followed behind.
It was getting dark. The eldest princess walked down the steps and showed an amiable smile to Qin Xiangxiang: "Ms. Qin is holding so many jewelry and walking alone at night. I'm afraid it's not safe. You might as well ask me to take you back."
Before Qin Xiangxiang could speak, General Jiang from behind interrupted: "Miss Qin just agreed to be a guest at my home. Besides, my house is right in front. If Miss Qin misses home, I will escort her back." . I don’t believe that there are bad people in the capital who dare to rob me.”
The eldest princess did not expect that General Jiang would compete with her.
She quickly said: "No one dares to rob me of my ways."
Qin Xiangxiang looked at General Jiang and then at the eldest princess. He couldn't believe that he had become a hot cake.
Of course Old General Jiang was not after the bag of jewelry in her arms, and the eldest princess certainly wasn't, so what they were fighting over was her.
Qin Xiangxiang showed an apologetic smile to the eldest princess: "I'm sorry, eldest princess, I promised General Jiang before."
The eldest princess was very disappointed, but she still said eagerly: "Then Mrs. Qin will be free to visit Laoshen's house tomorrow? If not, I will personally ask Prince Mu for someone."
Qin Xiangxiang said with a smile: "If I am free tomorrow, I will definitely go to the eldest princess's house as soon as possible."
Although he didn't know why the eldest princess wanted her to be a guest in her mansion, Qin Xiangxiang could tell that the eldest princess had no ill intentions towards her for the time being.
She guessed that she was trying to open up her own path and persuade Mu Ting to accept Princess Huizhen.
The eldest princess boarded the car and left with regret, while Qin Xiangxiang followed General Jiang for a short walk to General Yude's Mansion.
The guards guarding the door changed. One of them was lame, and the other seemed to have sound limbs, but he kept coughing.
General Jiang frowned and said, "Old Lutou, didn't I tell you to rest? Why did you come out again?"
Lao Lutou coughed and said: "Old General, this is my old problem. I cough non-stop when spring comes. Isn't it boring to be stuck in the house? Come out and get some air."
"Oh, I really can't do anything about you." Old General Jiang said helplessly.
"Is Xiao Langjun back?" he asked again.
"Not yet." Lao Lutou replied.
General Jiang frowned and said, "This kid is running out all day long and he doesn't know if he has enough to eat."
Qin Xiangxiang said with a smile: "Today at the flower viewing party at the eldest princess's residence, I looked at Jiang Xiaolangjun. He ate very well." Others were busy admiring the flowers and admiring the young lady, but Jiang Hongsheng was the only one who kept looking fiercely. eat.
"It's a joke to call Miss Qin." Old General Jiang said, "My grandson looks very weak, but he has a good appetite."
Qin Xiangxiang didn't take it to heart: "The young man has a good appetite, which means he is in good health."
As he spoke, he had already entered the main courtyard of the General's Mansion. Compared with the exquisiteness of the Princess's Mansion and the luxury of Wenchanghou's Mansion, General Yude's Mansion really looks like a bare family.
I was so angry that not many wind lanterns were lit, and only one or two oil lamps were lit. There was no trace of the servants.
General Jiang is really poor. Her father had impeached General Jiang, but now Qin Xiangxiang saw it with his own eyes and felt that her father had lost his mind.
Although the house has only four walls, the tables and chairs are still complete. Although it is old, it is very clean.
Qin Xiangxiang piled the large bag of jewelry on the table and went straight to the point: "Old General Jiang, I would like to donate some charity to the guards in your mansion, is it possible?" She could tell just now that the coughing guard was not It must be an old problem, but there is no more money to cure the root cause.
Before Old General Jiang could say anything, a weak-sounding voice came from outside the door: "I advise you not to have this idea. Today my grandfather will be sober, but tomorrow he will be confused and forget all about the donations. net."
Qin Xiangxiang looked outside and saw Jiang Xiaolangjun, who had a great appetite, leaning on the door carelessly.
