Chapter 67 Li Laosi's Courtesy
"What is it? Bring it to me and see it."
Jiang Wan stretched out her hand, and Jiang Han pouted as he took out a broken Gugujiao from his pocket and handed it to her.
A small colorful ceramic toy.
"Third brother, did you fall?"
Jiang Yaozu shrank his head timidly, no longer as arrogant as before.
"I didn't mean to, big sister. I just wanted to borrow it to play with it, but my second sister was too stingy and refused to let me. I accidentally dropped it on the ground."
"Listen, sister, he was the one who fell!"
The pretty girl felt aggrieved.
"Qingqing brought this specially from her hometown. There's nothing here in Beijing! She gave it to me because we're good friends, and now that annoying Jiang Lao San has broken it!"
Okay, the case is very clear now, Master Qingtang will make a fair judgment.
"Third brother, apologize to your second sister. Don't ask for your salary this month or next month. Give it to your second sister as compensation."
"Why, big sister? I'll apologize, but how can this little thing be worth two months' salary?"
"This is your punishment. If you dare to steal other people's things again, I will break your legs! Do you hear me?"
When the sister is fierce, the brother is timid.
"I heard it, I'm sorry, second sister."
"snort!"
Jiang Han, who had won the lawsuit again, raised his chin proudly, with one thing clearly expressed in his eyes.
Want to compete with me for my elder sister's favor?
No way!
"Second brother, you..."
"Sister, I'm here."
Jiang Han rushed over to give his sister a back massage.
Seeing her carefree younger siblings, Jiang Wan swallowed back all the reminders she had been about to offer. After all, she still had her eldest sister to stand in their way, so they didn't need to worry too much for the time being.
Just as he was about to ask his younger brothers and sisters to go to the martial arts training ground, Hongzhu, who was waiting outside, came in to report.
"Miss, Sister Qingzhu is here to tell you that the Fourth Prince has arrived, and Madam wants you to go over there?"
"What's he doing here?"
"It seems like a lot of gifts were sent over."
Jiang Wan raised his eyebrows and stood up.
"Okay, I'll go take a look."
"Sister, I'm going too!"
"I'm going too, big sister!"
The three Jiang siblings walked quickly to the main courtyard, and sure enough, Li Chengzheng was sitting there, staring at the three elders of the Jiang family.
"Wanjie'er!"
The boy stood up with a look of joy on his face. Although he wasn't a big boy at thirteen or fourteen, he was changing every day. Compared to when he was in Maocheng, he had obviously grown a little taller.
After Jiang Wan greeted his grandparents and mother, he turned to look at Li Chengxiu.
"What do you want to see me about?"
"Nothing, it's just that the imperial decree granting us marriage..."
Surrounded by the Jiang family, young and old, the young man, who was just beginning to fall in love, was too embarrassed to say many things directly. He stammered and mumbled, his ears as red as if they were about to bleed.
Fortunately, Jiang Wan didn't make things difficult for him.
"I have received the imperial decree granting the marriage, and it is on display at my home. Do you want to see it?"
"no!"
After secretly glancing at Wan Jie'er's expression and making sure that she didn't look annoyed with him, Li Chengxiu grinned with relief.
"It's okay as long as you've received the imperial edict. What's so good about it? It's okay if you lose it. I can just ask my dad to write another one for you later!"
He pointed to the pile of gifts he had brought on the table and under the table, obviously wanting to ask for credit and reward.
"I prepared some gifts for you last time, but you didn't have time to take them home. I added some more these days and sent them to you. Come and take a look. Do you like them?"
Not only did he greet his fiancée, but this very sociable guy also looked up and greeted the Jiang family warmly.
"Grandpa, grandma, mom, and the second and third sons, I've prepared gifts for you all. I've also prepared a lot of good wine for dad, and it's all in the yard!
Take a look and see if you are satisfied. If you don’t like it, just tell me and I will send you other ones later.”
He dug out an exquisitely shaped long sword from the pile of miscellaneous things on the ground and held it in front of the girl he liked with a flattering look on his face.
"Wanjie'er, I stole my father's favorite sword. No, I asked for it. Try it and see if it works for you. If not, I'll go back and get another one!"
This attitude of not feeling any remorse at all for taking advantage of one's own father's heart and lungs can be said to have taken the word "money-losing commodity" to the extreme.
Although everyone who has grown cabbage knows that it is really annoying when wild boars come to your house to dig up your cabbage, but when the wild boar is a guy who is willing to pay for it, it is really fun!
Xu didn't know what the emperor and the imperial concubine were thinking at the moment, but she was actually overjoyed by this newly appointed son-in-law.
She wasn't simply attracted by this little thing; she saw the Fourth Prince's intentions for her daughter. Since she had no choice, as a mother, she naturally hoped that her daughter and son-in-law would fall in love with each other over time and live a happy life together.
The mistress of the house was happy to see it happen, not to mention the old man, the old lady, and the second and third sons who had already been completely won over and kept calling him brother-in-law.
Jiang Wan looked at his family, then at the blushing boy in front of him. A smile slowly appeared in his eyes, and he reached out to take the gift.
"Thank you. I like it very much."
"Hey, as long as you like it!"
In the following days, it was basically Li Laosi's turn to show his affection in various ways.
He would rush to Lao Jiang's house every day. If he had anything from Lao Li's family, his parents would want to pack it up and give it away.
The emperor was so angry that he just stared blankly, but he couldn't stop his money-losing son from moving things to his mother-in-law's house!
So recently, when he saw Jiang Huailiang's smug look on his face as he got a good son-in-law, he really felt dissatisfied with everything about him.
"Duke Ling, have you been happy recently?"
Jiang Huailiang stopped smiling immediately.
"good?"
"Oh, how can you not be sure about this?"
The emperor gritted his teeth and pointed at the jade pendant hanging on the other person's waist. Jealousy began to make him speak without thinking.
"You've gotten rich lately, haven't you? You've exchanged three jade pendants in three days, and each one is better than the last! But why does it look so familiar to me? Does it look like the white jade Ruyi pendant that was stolen by a thief last night? The kind with a little flower on the Ruyi!"
He wanted to describe the details to the greatest extent possible, hoping that the shameless person on the other side would have some shame and return his beloved thing.
But he had already sold a beautiful daughter to Li Laosi, and Jiang Huailiang felt that he had already lost enough. What was wrong with accepting things from the Li family?
Anyway, I didn’t steal it!
With a big beard to cover up your ugliness, you don’t know what embarrassment is.
"That's quite a coincidence indeed, but this jade pendant was given to me this morning by my future son-in-law, who blocked the palace gates. I didn't want it at first, but considering his filial piety, I don't want to offend him, do I?"
