"The real family is the Qingliu family. He will definitely test whether you are qualified to enter his private school. What other conditions can he impose?"
Suisui shook his head, "Yes, brother Jingxiu said, Shu Xiu doesn't need to hand it over, but if he writes new poems, he has to hang them in the study for everyone to circulate."
"Mother, Uncle Nangong has agreed with Brother Jingxiu that he will send me to a private school in a few days."
Speaking of being able to go to private school, Suisui's face was filled with a smile of anticipation.
…
It is said that Jiang Zhengming went to the Wu family to pay homage to Mrs. Wu with generous gifts.
After Mrs. Wu heard Jiang Zhengming's explanation, she asked Yan's mother to take back her third grandson's posthumous invitation.
He waved his hand openly, "Since Miss Jiang is no longer here, it means that my old lady has admitted her mistake, and this marriage will not be possible."
Seeing that Mrs. Wu didn't mean to blame her at all, Jiang Zhengming breathed a sigh of relief.
After a while of polite greetings, Jiang Zhengming stood up to leave, and Mrs. Wu asked the housekeeper to see the guests off.
She turned back to Yan's mother who was waiting beside her and said, "What do you think is going on in the Jiang family? A good daughter insists on speaking out to death, and insists on praising that concubine who has no place on the stage."
Yan's mother took the tea with both hands, "Old Madam, do you still remember Miss Jiang saying that she has bad luck?"
"My aunt has become a stepmother, and my legitimate daughter has been kicked out. Isn't it bad luck? I don't know if Mr. Jiang is too confused, or if the stepmother is too powerful."
Mrs. Wu took the tea and took a sip, "You sent someone to inquire about Miss Jiang. I have made a mistake once in my life. This time, I was absolutely right. That girl is a person who can run a family and run affairs." , whether she is a girl from Shangshu Mansion or not, my Wu family wants to marry her."
Mrs. Wu's brain ached when she mentioned her incompetent eldest daughter-in-law.
Others were dejected when they were grounded, but she was playing the piano and playing strings in the courtyard without any intention of reflecting on her mistake.
From Mrs. Wu's point of view, she seemed happy to have some free time.
"Old Madam, why don't you let Eldest Madam and Lao Nu go out together to find out the news about Miss Jiang? This can be regarded as making up for the merit."
"Okay, let's do it this way. Let her be more considerate when she sees others. If she messes up again, I...I will definitely punish her again."
"Hey! The old lady is kind. The eldest lady will definitely handle things beautifully this time. The old lady will just wait for the good news."
Yan's mother smiled warmly and quickly stepped back to report the news to the eldest lady.
The eldest lady is usually kind to others, and she is also happy to give her a few kind words in front of the old lady.
"What? Let me find someone. Where can I find someone? Isn't my ancestor sincerely trying to make things difficult for me?"
The eldest lady was not happy to hear that the confinement was lifted.
"Hey! My wife, if you have nothing to do, take your slave for a walk on the street. The old lady doesn't stipulate that you can find the person in a day or two, don't you think so?"
Not to mention the old lady having a headache, Yan's mother also had a headache seeing the eldest lady's stubborn look.
The eldest lady put her hands on the lotus pods and looked out the window at the scorching sun. She said with a depressed look, "It's such a hot day, so it's better to stay indoors."
Yan’s mother: “…”
She finally understood what the old lady meant when she always scolded the eldest lady for being unable to hold up the wall with mud.
It's not that I can't hold on to the wall, but the eldest wife doesn't want to climb the wall at all.
The maid on the side bowed and said to Mama Yan: "Thank you Mama Yan for your advice. I will accompany Madam to find the person. Even if you can't find her, you will have to look for her every day. Please also ask Madam Yan to say a few kind words for Madam in front of our ancestors."
After Yan's mother left, Mrs. Wu asked the maid, "What can you do?"
"Madam! Our ancestors didn't let us bask in the sun on the street. Let's find a teahouse near the street, sit in a private room on the second floor, and look at the street from time to time. As for whether we can find Miss Jiang, then It just depends on fate.”
"Is this okay? Then why should I worry? Go and clean up quickly. Let's go out and have tea."
Seeing that the lady's mind was turning around, the servant hurriedly ordered the coachman to prepare to go out.
Therefore, Mrs. Wu took her two maids out of the mansion to drink tea every day.
She went out every morning and returned home at night, so she had to worry about morning and evening. During the day, it was not easy for Wu Taiwei to see her.
…
Two days later, Nangong Zeyue came to Xingyue Courtyard excitedly to find Jiang Shuyue.
He pushed a stack of banknotes in front of Jiang Shuyue and said, "Take it quickly, this is Sui Sui's wife book."
"Sit down and tell me, Uncle Lin came out of the palace yesterday. He was originally going to see you. I asked Lan'er to go to your courtyard to look for you. He didn't even see you. You were busy usurping the throne. went?"
Nangong Zeyue was so amused by Jiang Shuyue's words that she laughed like a pig.
He lifted his robe and sat down, with a look of bohemianism on his brows and eyes, "Sui Sui, you are so funny. Look at how I look like an emperor. Sui Sui is still young. If he wants to be the emperor of Lao Shizi, I will Go to the palace and bring him the jade seal."
Jiang Shuyue really believed what he said. This guy was so kind to Sui Sui. As long as Sui Sui liked something, he would always find a way to get it.
Jiang Shuyue glared at him, "Do you think you can become emperor just by getting the jade seal?"
"Tell me, what's the deal with this banknote? You two won it in a cockfight, right?"
Nangong Zeyue stroked her forehead, "Hey! You've discovered all this. This guy Suisui is so honest. I asked him not to tell you, but he still broke out."
Nangong Zeyue looked annoyed.
Qiu Ju looked at the thick stack of silver notes, her eyes shining, "Mr. Nangong, can you win so much money from cockfighting? When will you go again?"
Jiang Shuyue: "..." It's over, this girl is also obsessed with money.
Nangong Zeyue said awkwardly: "The cockfighting ring was closed. I took over the place and turned it into a place for everyone to play dice."
"Ahem..."
Jiang Shuyue had a mouthful of tea stuck in her throat and almost choked to death.
Does this guy think she doesn't know where to play dice? And he said it in a roundabout way.
Qiu Ju quickly patted her back.
Seeing that Jiang Shuyue was anxious, Nangong Zeyue quickly explained, "The serious business I do has been reported to the yamen. I am fair to both young and old. No one dares to play pranksters in my place."
Jiang Shuyue calmed down, patted the stack of banknotes on the table and asked, "Then tell me, what does this have to do with Suisui? Suisui is my son, and I still have the money to marry my daughter-in-law in the future. How can I I can make you money."
"This banknote, let's start with betting on cockfights." Nangong Zeyue glanced at Jiang Shuyue's face guiltily and saw that Jiang Shuyue did not glare at him.
He bravely continued: "I'm lucky every year, as you know, I haven't had anything like that for a long time, and I don't have much money in my pocket."
"One day, Suisui and I went to Juxian Pavilion for a meal. When we came out, we passed by the cockfighting place. People there gathered around the inner and outer three floors. It was very lively."
Seeing Jiang Shuyue taking another sip of tea, she seemed calm.
Nangong Zeyue suddenly gained a lot of courage, and said with a smile: "Guess what, there are too many people. I'm afraid that I will step on my age, so I let him sit on my shoulder and watch the fun."
"In the end, Sui Sui asked me hard to press the white cock to win."
Qiu Ju was stunned and asked.
"What happened next! Did you win?"
