Chapter 175 Dead
"Dong~~~"
"Happy birthday to you!"
"Keng~~~"
"Happy birthday to you!"
"Qiang~~~"
The moonlit night is as dark as ink.
Jiang Mansion in Ming County.
Jiang Rong did not go home last night.
Old Madam Jiang was worried.
Because Jiang Changtian left Ming County and went to the capital.
They did not leave immediately, but they were still worried.
After all, the Seventh Prince's people were wiped out when they came, and they were lucky to be alive.
But seeing Jiang Rong staying at home to study every day and not going out to socialize is not good.
Old Madam Jiang still let Jiang Rong go to the county school.
It was also a test.
Sure enough, no one stopped him.
Jiang Rong looked more lively when he went to school again.
The Jiang family is actually a little tight now.
In the past, Madam Jiang had all the money, as if it was inexhaustible.
Now, it has been wasted one after another.
In the past, her daughter gave her some allowance, but after Chu Yi's death, she didn't know how to explain it, and she couldn't bring herself to ask for it.
Madam Jiang didn't know at first that the guard was her grandson. Although he was not her biological son, he still called Yu Luan his stepmother.
He should have acknowledged Madam Jiang.
Because of this, Madam Jiang was too embarrassed to ask her daughter for money.
So Jiang Rong didn't have new clothes every month, and he wasn't so generous in school. He inevitably suffered some discrimination. After all, when he went out before, the servants would look down on him in groups.
Yesterday, my classmates invited us to go out together.
Jiang Rong didn't want to go, but his sister and grandmother wanted him to go.
Dad was hungover and ignored him.
He did not want to disappoint his sister and grandmother
, so he went out. But he did not come back until dark.
Old Madam Jiang was extremely worried.
She asked someone to report to the authorities.
Although they could not call the officials to the house to do the work as before,
County Magistrate Huang took it very seriously when he heard about it. After all, there was no small matter related to Sima Jiang. He sent people to search for him for a day and a night.
As a result, they were notified to pick him up.
He was found downstream of He County.
Jiang Rong drowned, and he was swollen when he was found.
Old Madam Jiang cried heartbreakingly, "My son, my son, my son, it hurts me so much."
Jiang Wan's eyes were red, and she was wearing linen clothes. She forced herself to hold a funeral for her brother.
My brother had never done anything bad, why did he have to suffer such a disaster? The world is unfair.
Suona sounded.
...
"Dong~~"
"Happy birthday to you!"
"Keng~~"
"Happy birthday to you!"
"Qiang~~"
Meng Shaoxia took on a task speechlessly.
At the same time, he blew out the candles and extinguished the lanterns.
Everyone listened to the song from the underworld, and suddenly it became dark around them.
I was startled.
Then I heard the creaking sound of wooden wheels rubbing against the ground, which was a bit harsh.
Combined with the Happy Birthday song, it felt even more eerie.
An official grabbed the thigh of the person next to him in fear.
Then I saw a man in white clothes and a white hat pushing a shelf over.
There was a round white millstone on the shelf.
The white millstone was full of candles.
What is this for?
Then the man in white took out a knife...
Fortunately, no one was so startled.
Although under the rows of candles, a man in white holding a knife was a bit scary.
The man in white handed the knife to Jiang Feng and said, "Master, the lady asked you to make a wish to these candles. You recite your wish silently and then blow out the candles, and your wish will definitely come true."
Jiang Feng looked at the candles.
Each flame jumped in his eyes.
He put his hands together and made a wish to the candles: "I hope the whole family can live together, including Shao Xia."
Then he blew out all the candles in one breath.
At this time, the servants also lit the lanterns at the same time.
The banquet hall was bright again.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The panicked official let go of the thigh of the official next to him.
They looked at each other, a little shy.
After pulling out the candle, the white millstone-like thing was not the candle base.
But an edible snack?
It turns out that the knife is used to cut the snacks. The
birthday star has to cut it himself, and no one else can do it for him.
This Sima Jiang has something.
It's mysterious.
Everyone was given a piece of the white millstone.
It melts in the mouth, sweet and delicious, and the taste is indescribable.
Several men who don't eat sweets couldn't help but eat a few bites.
And those who like sweets are simply obsessed with this white millstone.
It is the most delicious food I have ever eaten in my life.
The banquet is over.
Sima Jiang took his eldest son to see everyone out.
Each person was given a bag of souvenirs, which was an exquisite wooden box with a cleansing cream written on it.
Sima Jiang smiled sweetly and said, "The food and drinks were delicious, but I am sorry for the poor hospitality. Next month, it is my son-in-law's birthday, and you must come. I will definitely do better and entertain you better then."
Everyone:...
Expressions are hard to describe.
Sima is a beautiful woman, but she is greedy for money.
But having said that, this meal is really delicious, and the gift is worth it.
It's just that the music makes people feel uneasy, but there is nothing wrong with everything else.
I heard that today's banquet was hosted by Sima Jiang's eldest daughter, Mrs. Meng, the extraordinary woman who subdued the only son of General Meng in the capital, and not only proposed to marry him, but also was willing to stay in front of her father-in-law and serve him for three years.
It is said that she looks like a seductive woman, comparable to Daji, and her cooking skills are amazing.
They are all willing to stay.
Little General Meng's square face has become a little rounder.
Madam He also happily took the souvenir home.
She tried the facial cleanser in the inner house, and it was amazing. Her hands were washed white on the spot. She didn't even know that there was so much dirt on the back of her hands. It was embarrassing.
Fortunately, there is the more embarrassing Madam Yu.
However, Madam He didn't know whether Madam Yu was really stupid or pretending to be stupid. She was always making jokes elsewhere and was already a laughing stock in the city. However, she seemed to be in her element in the Jiang family. Not only did she have a good chat with Madam Jiang, she also talked and laughed with Miss Jiang, and seemed to be very talkative. She
also said that she would bring her three girls over to play.
Madam Yu's hands were even darker.
They were all covered in mud.
Madam Jiang obviously liked her very much, and gave her four facial cleansers, saying that one was for each of her daughters.
Madam He found that although Madam Jiang did not look like a noblewoman, she seemed to have a very good memory.
Madam Yu chatted about this and that, and Madam Jiang could only repeat the names and hobbies of several of her daughters.
She just mentioned her mother-in-law during the conversation, and did not say anything. When she went back, she was given an extra gift, saying it was for her mother-in-law.
In short, the birthday party was over.
Madam He and Madam Yu were very happy.
Madam He saw her husband with a tearful face and asked what happened.
Lord He said, "Young General Meng is born in the year of the Ox." Madam
He looked puzzled. If you are born in the year of the Ox, then you are born in the year of the Ox. It's none of your business. You are crazy trying to make progress all day long.
When Madam Yu returned home, the cleansing cream was snatched away by her husband and given to his concubine.
...
When the officials and nobles who came to visit returned home, their wives and concubines were waiting.
They were all prepared to listen to their husbands' complaints.
Some smart ones even prepared food at home. They would
definitely not be able to eat that weird birthday banquet.
They might be hungry for a meal. They
must eat when they get back.
Some were also curious and wanted to ask if their husband had seen Madam Meng, and whether she was really as seductive as Daji as the legend said.
But normally, he couldn't see the female relatives.
But Sima Jiang came from the countryside. If the separation between men and women was not so strict and it was a mess, he might have seen her.
In the end, they all said they hadn't seen her, but they were yearning in their hearts.
This made the ladies and girls even more curious.
Without even seeing this side, so many people are willing to bow down to him and admire him. What a great level he is.
No wonder the little phoenix fairy was stabbed to death as soon as she appeared.
She wanted to hear her husband talk about how chaotic the banquet was, but he cursed at the midnight snack he prepared for her: "What kind of pig food is this? Even dogs won't eat it. Hey."
More than one lady suffered such treatment and felt very aggrieved.
She thought that some goblin outside had been drugged by him.
"Prepare another birthday gift, a heavier one."
"Lord Sima's son-in-law will have his birthday next month."
Ladies: ...
