Chapter 124 Jiang Cheng explains the funeral arrangements
He Shoutang looked happily at Jiang Cheng, who rarely showed anger.
Anyway, Jiang Cheng has resigned from him now, and we will spend some time together in the future. I believe it won’t be long before he becomes a close friend with him.
Facing the playful and smiling He Shoutang, Jiang Cheng could only treat him with silence.
He Shoutang came out of Jiang Cheng's room with a satisfied look on his face. Granny Hao and Jiang Qiuniang looked at each other. What did the two of them say?
The smile on He Shoutang's face was mean.
Bao Zhu stared at He Shoutang for a long time, wrinkled her nose and followed Granny Hao to Jiang Cheng's house with some disgust.
As soon as she walked into the house, Granny Hao's eyes turned red.
She probably guessed what Jiang Cheng and He Shoudang said.
Jiang Cheng looked at Granny Hao, whose eyes were red and was holding back tears, and felt extremely guilty.
"Mom!" He started to get up.
Grandma Hao stopped her and said, "You haven't recovered yet, so don't struggle, so as not to injure your body."
Bao Zhu walked to the bed and stared at Jiang Cheng with big eyes.
She heard everything he said to He Shoutang just now.
"Baozhu, why are you staring at me?"
Jiang Cheng was staring at her with hair all over his body, as if his thoughts were being read through.
"It's nothing. Am I waiting for you to talk to Granny Hao?"
Bao Zhu pouted. Didn't he talk a lot to He Shoudang just now and asked He Shoudang to call Granny Hao and her mother to come in? Didn't he have something to explain?
Look at his cowardice.
Being stared at by Bao Zhu, there was really nothing he could do. Jiang Cheng could only smile bitterly and said: "Mom, I have promised He Shoutang to go with him."
Grandma Hao, who had known this result for a long time, was already prepared in her heart. When Jiang Cheng said it in person, she felt sour in her heart.
In the past, she expected Jiang Cheng to take care of her until she died, but now...the son she finally raised...
That’s all.
As long as my son is safe, that's fine.
Jiang Cheng looked at Jiang Qiuniang and wanted to get up, but Jiang Qiuniang stepped forward to stop him.
"Don't worry, I will help you take good care of Granny Hao."
Jiang Qiuniang sighed helplessly.
Granny Hao’s son did not live in vain.
I know how to be grateful.
It's a pity that nature plays tricks on people, and they are all poor people.
Grandma Hao held back her tears and nodded with sobs: "Son! Don't worry. I won't be alone with Baozhu and Mingzhu after you leave. They are all more likable than you, so I won't be alone in the future."
"When I leave this time, I will change my name. There will be no more Jiang Cheng in the world. What He Shoudang has to do is special. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back to see you again in the future."
Speaking of this, Jiang Cheng's eyes turned red.
He took a deep breath and took out a money bag from the side of the pillow. The one hundred taels of silver in it were taken from He Shoutang.
"There are one hundred taels here for Aunt Qiuniang. I hope Auntie will accept it and fulfill her filial piety on my behalf in the future."
Jiang Qiuniang quickly postponed: "This...how can this happen?"
Bao Zhu blinked his eyes and didn't understand why Jiang Qiuniang wanted to go back.
He immediately stretched out his hand and took the money bag: "Why can't you do it? We are all a family anyway. This money is the pension money given by Jiang Cheng's brother to his mother-in-law, not for you. In the future, if your mother-in-law has a minor problem, she will have to spend it.
silver."
Then he wrinkled his nose and said, "If you don't accept it, Brother Jiang Cheng will not be happy if he leaves."
He Shoudang, who was standing outside the door, almost laughed out loud when he heard this.
What does it mean to be uneasy about leaving? Jiang Cheng said it as if he was about to die.
Jiang Qiuniang was also shocked. This sounded like her last words.
"Baoya, please stop talking." It would be scary to say any more.
Jiang Cheng grimaced, and Bao Zhu seemed to be right.
He was rebelling against He Shoutang, which was a treasonous act.
If you're not careful, you'll end up burping.
In the future, he will change his name and must not tell anyone about his past, lest he cause death to the people of Jiangjia Village.
If the rebellion succeeds, he may still be able to regain his true identity, but... this is not easy.
Nowadays, the vassals everywhere are in chaos, and He Shoutang is just a bandit from Hulang Mountain with only more than 200 people under his command. How can he possibly fight against the vassals everywhere?
The road ahead is uncertain, and he still doesn't know the situation in Hulang Mountain. Unless He Shoudang has surrendered to one of the feudal lords, otherwise... this matter will be difficult to achieve.
I don’t know life or death.
This is no different from giving your last words.
"Baozhu is right. From now on... from now on... I will ask my aunt to take care of my mother in her old age."
He felt extremely bitter in his heart.
Grandma Hao had already burst into tears. She took the money bag from Baozhu and stuffed it into Jiang Qiuniang's hand: "Just accept it for me."
Baozhu was right, she couldn't let her son leave without peace of mind.
Besides, she also believes that Jiang Qiuniang is not a person who is blind to money.
I even believe that the three Baozhu siblings are pure and kind people. With them taking care of me, I will not be left without help when I grow old.
"Don't worry, Xiao Cheng, I will definitely take good care of my mother-in-law."
Now that Granny Hao has said it, she no longer shirks and collects the money carefully.
Bao Zhu grinned, patted Jiang Cheng's arm and said, "Don't worry, you still have me."
"As long as I'm here, I guarantee that my mother-in-law can eat meat every day."
Eating meat every day is probably a good life that only an emperor can have.
Granny Hao couldn't help but smile happily.
Touching Baozhu's little head, he said, "That works, my mother-in-law will count on Baozhu to support me in my old age."
"Of course!"
Bao Zhu raised her chin and said proudly.
Jiang Cheng's eyes flashed slightly and the corners of his mouth pursed slightly.
Jiang Cheng's injury was serious and he had to be raised in a small courtyard for half a month.
Granny Hao stayed, and Jiang Qiuniang was worried about the Mingzhu siblings at home, so she and Daniu went back to Jiangjiacun in the afternoon.
Sitting on the carriage, Bao Zhu opened the curtain and glanced at the small courtyard farther and farther behind for a few times before sitting down properly.
When she opened the pastry box that He Shoutang specially sent to the city to buy, she found that it was all her favorites.
Picked up a piece of peach blossom cake and took a big bite.
"Auntie, let me tell you. Mr. He is very powerful. When I entered the city yesterday, I saw Wang Youcai, the man who framed Jiang Cheng's brother, hanging on the city gate. A sharp arrow flew from nowhere, and he was directly
Stab him in the chest."
While eating cakes, Baozhu talked to Jiang Qiuniang about Wang Youcai.
Jiang Qiuniang's dark eyebrows frowned slightly, she tightened her handkerchief and became a little curious about He Shoutang's origins.
"Baozhu, you...did you go with me?"
"Yeah, of course I'll come along. I also asked Mr. He to destroy his descendants and break his front teeth with bricks. Who told him to quit his job?"
Wrinkling her Qiong nose, Bao Zhu said with a venomous face: "He raped many girls in the city. Several times, he relied on the fact that he had a county magistrate father who was safe and sound. The innocent girls who were ruined either died or were killed casually.
If you are betrothed to someone else, you will not be able to hold your head high in your husband's family for the rest of your life."
"You don't know, when I took action, this king was begging for mercy vigorously, but he didn't have the same majesty as before."
