Chapter 371 Unreasonable Aunt
But Zhang Yueniang understood Jiang Chen's good intentions.
After all, neither Jiang Chen nor her dared to regard Ju Huan, a person who could enter the palace to meet the queen at any time, as a concubine.
Because there is no third person who can enjoy such honors in the court today except for the royal family members and Cai You’s wife Song!
So, Zhang Yueniang pulled Ju Huan's simple hand and smiled, "Sister Huan, since all the officials have spent money on us, let's receive this gift!"
"...Okay, okay, please, madam!"
Ju Huan held back his excitement and helped Zhang Yueniang walk out of the carriage.
Xun'er and Ping'er also followed happily. Not only did the Jiang Mansion have good food, accommodation and treatment, no intrigue or oppression, but also the rewards were frequent and generous. They all fell in love with this place.
Xiang'er and Cui Niannu looked calm. What they liked was the hustle and bustle of celebration and all kinds of delicious food, rather than the money they gave rewards.
Because they serve Jiang Chen every day, they have become rich women after being sweet and pleasing to each other.
At the same time, the cousin's family didn't take Twenty Guan seriously.
After Zhang Yueniang and Ju Huan joked with the people in the Jiang Mansion for a few words, the three of them couldn't wait to come over.
"Congratulations to Brother Chen, you have a great career. You have been promoted again in just a short time!"
The cousin said with a flattering smile.
After my aunt greeted Liu Mingjie, she said with concern: "Brother Chen (cousin), I heard that you were assassinated? How about you? You are not injured, are you?"
While the mother and daughter were talking, they were extremely close to each other and checking Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was uncomfortable when he was touched by the mother and daughter, and raised his hand to stop him and said, "Don't worry about my cousin's aunt and cousin, it's just a few students who are messing around, so it's not a big assassination.
Since we are here, let’s have fun together. I’ll go to change my clothes first!”
After Jiang Chen said that, he walked towards the villa area of the back house.
Now that the incident of suppressing Fang La is changing, and there are a few more queens and Song Huizong's spies in the mansion, it consumes his energy and he really doesn't have the extra energy to deal with Liu Mingjie's family.
Um-
Cousin's aunt?
I haven't seen each other for only a few days, are you so different?
My aunt was full of loss.
My cousin and Liu Mingjie also looked embarrassed.
Although they are not short of money now, their lives are not satisfactory. Compared to the days when they are respected everywhere in the Jiang Mansion and have a small power, they are simply a different story.
Not only did the businessmen and small officials who used to break through the threshold disappeared, but the relatives of the Liu family turned to flatter Aunt Liu Si's family and went to the house.
What made them even more depressed was that under the influence of various changes and rumors, the road for Liu Mingjie to become a noble person was getting more and more difficult.
So, my cousin's family began to return to Jiang Mansion and re-appointed as the official in Jiang Mansion, so that they could make friends with more noble people to pave the way for Liu Mingjie.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen refused to give him a chance to speak, and he just flashed his head.
Fortunately, Zhang Yueniang was soft-hearted and invited politely: "Cousin, aunt, reputation, if there is nothing wrong, why not go to the back house to sit?"
"Okay, OK!"
"We are having something to discuss with you and Brother Chen!"
The cousin and aunt nodded quickly to agree.
At this time, Zhang Yueniang also found Liu Zongshou's family standing beside him honestly, and also invited him: "Second uncle, when did you come?"
Hurry up, go with us to sit in the back. Although Minghui helps the officials take care of the study, she cannot walk away easily, she is thinking about you every day!”
"Haha, OK, OK."
Liu Zongshou nodded with a honest look on his face.
Liu Yuanwen said sweetly: "We are also thinking about the tightness of the eldest lady and Minghui, but we are afraid of tainting the eyes of the eldest lady and the young master, so we are embarrassed to come over.
Today I heard that the young master was assassinated, but I couldn’t sleep or eat at first glance, so I came to the door with shameless face."
Can't sleep or eat?
Are you worried about me so much?
Jiang Chen looked back at Liu Yuanwen with a funny look, shook his head slightly and continued to move forward.
When Liu Mingjie saw that Jiang Chen didn't even look at her, he immediately became even more dissatisfied.
Although she didn't know that rabies could bite people, Jiang Chen was the initiator of the rumors, but she still blamed Jiang Chen.
As soon as he entered the back house, he rushed forward and stopped Jiang Chen and said:
"What do you mean? You ruined my reputation and made me unrequited to be a noble person. You also drove our family out of Jiang Mansion and told outsiders that there is nothing to do with us anymore.
Not only did we not blame you, but we heard that you were assassinated and came to visit you as soon as possible. Do you dislike us so much?"
Jiang Chen frowned, glanced at Ju Huan and Xun'er, Ping'er and some girls, and said to Liu Mingjie:
"What does it mean that I ruin your reputation?
I have said that people in the Jiang Mansion can only be pure ministers, only loyal to the official family, and no one is allowed to participate in the affairs of the prince.
If you want to use Jiang Mansion as a bargaining chip to achieve your dream of being a noble person, how can I continue to keep you in Jiang Mansion?"
"that is!
It was your own choice when leaving Jiang Mansion. Brother Chen not only gave you a villa, but also gave you endless money to use. Why did you have to turn the tables on the end?"
Aunt Liu Si of the official in the inner house frowned with contempt.
"us……"
Liu Mingjie was stopped.
But my aunt argued: "Even so, we can't kill us quickly and publicly say that we have nothing to do with us? Others don't know, but they think we did something shameful in the Jiang Mansion!
In addition, Chen Ge'er had cheated Mingjie and learned to bark at the dog, and said in front of the empress dowager that Mingjie was her concubine's business, and she asked her to get married? Isn't this not giving our family a way out?"
Um-
Learn to bark at dogs?
Zhang Yueniang gave Jiang Chen a angrily look.
Ju Huan, Xun'er and Ping'er, who were not aware of the inside, showed gossip on their faces, and Qi looked at Jiang Chen with strange eyes: So you are so damaged? No wonder it is said that Liu Mingjie has rabies outside!
Well--
Jiang Chen was embarrassed secretly, but he said with a righteous look on his face: "I can't stop you from thinking about it. In short, I will not betray the principle for your family, cling to the prince, and give up on the absolute loyalty to the official family!
If you think I did something wrong, I can write to Lord Liu immediately and ask him to take the honor as his concubine. I think he will definitely be very willing!"
"Who is going to be a concubine for him? Is that what we mean?"
Liu Ming's eyes turned red in the solar term and almost cried.
The cousin hurriedly stepped forward and laughed and said, "Brother Chen, you misunderstood. Don't listen to your aunt's nonsense. We have no intention of blaming you. It's just..."
While speaking, he looked at his baby daughter worriedly and said, "What should I do when I have a reputation in the future? There are so many rumors outside, and I am also proud of your concubine's reputation. Not to mention being a noble person, even an ordinary merchant dare not marry him!"
"What do you think I'll do you think?" Jiang Chen asked lightly.
"this……"
My cousin looked reluctant but stopped, and looked at Ju Huan and the girls uncomfortable.
Ju Huan immediately understood and smiled, "I just happened to go back to my room to change into plainclothes, so I lost my companion first!"
After saying that, she was slightly blessed with Jiang Chen and Zhang Yueniang and was about to turn around and leave.
