Chapter 8, Daddy was scared away
  The old lady softened and turned her head.

She raised her hand and pointed to the table.

"The things in the cloth bag on the table are my full moon gifts for Yaoyao."

"When Yaoyao gets older, she can just hold it and play with it."

Jiang opened the cloth bag and saw a rattle and a nine-link ring made of gold.

She picked up the rattle and examined it carefully.

The drum handle and drum board are made of fine golden nanmu, and the drum head is not made of ordinary cowhide, but rare Tulong (crocodile) skin.

When Jiang was young, he played drums with his elder brother.

She knew how valuable the rattle in her hand was.

Let’s talk about the dye on this rattle.

To make it, you need to dry a hundred kinds of herbs for a month and burn them in a fire for three days to get the ashes of the herbs.

Then after repeated modulation, it can be made.

A flash of surprise flashed across Jiang's face.

She originally thought that according to the old lady's stingy temperament, she would just give her something casually.

Unexpectedly, all the gifts given by the old lady were valuable.

I also sent two pieces in a row.

Jiang turned the rattle and made a "dong-dong" sound.

"Does Yaoyao like it?"

[Mom, I don’t like it. 】

[She made a safety lock out of gold and gave it to Su Mengli as a full moon gift. 】

[What is painted on this nine-link ring is the scraps left over from making the safety lock. 】

[Mother, even the rattle in your hand is something Su Mengli doesn’t like and doesn’t want. 】

Jiang's movement of turning the rattle paused.

The little joy that had just arisen in my heart disappeared.

Su Yaoyao waved her little hand and hit the rattle.

Jiang loosened his grip and the rattle fell to the ground.

Jiang had no intention of picking it up.

Her daughter wouldn't want something that was thrown away by others.

"Yao Yao is not interested in rattles."

"This nine-link chain only has a thin layer of gold skin on the outside. It's too cheap."

"Yao Yao is the legitimate daughter, and the pure gold nine-link ring is worthy of her status."

[My mother said it well. 】

The old lady was ready for Jiang to thank her, but Jiang didn't like the gift she gave her.

She stared at Mr. Jiang, her face turned red with anger, and she opened her mouth to scold Mr. Jiang, "You..."

Jiang nodded slightly.

"Qingwan has a stupid mouth. If my mother doesn't want to hear what she says, I hope my mother won't argue with Qingwan."

The old lady's breath was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't go up or down.

If she was calculating at this time, wouldn't it look like she was too aggressive?

Seeing the old lady's angry face, Jiang didn't look like she was about to get angry, and the corners of her mouth silently raised.

"Mother, I have to entertain the guests in the mansion, so I won't be here soon."

"Wait a minute." The old lady stopped Jiang and rolled her eyes.

"I have been ill for such a long time, and those nuns are taking good care of me, but in my heart, I always feel that they are not taking good care of you, Mrs. Jiang."

"Ms. Jiang, you are now in confinement. If you can come and take care of me, I think my illness will definitely heal faster."

I used to pretend to be sick.

Now that she has a sprained foot, she probably won't be able to get out of bed for several days. She wants Jiang to take care of her like he used to.

Jiang is the legitimate daughter of General Suiyuan's mansion and has a distinguished status.

She came from a poor family, and before her son became an official, she often had too much to eat and suffered a lot.

Every time she sees Jiang serving her hard and without complaint, her vanity is greatly satisfied.

[Don’t you like Liu Xiaoqin more? Why don't you ask her to serve you? 】

[Co-author: If something good happens, go to Liu Xiaoqin; if anything goes bad, go to my mother. 】

【Is this something humans do? 】

Jiang's eyes were sarcastic.

"Mother, you got sick seven days before Yaoyao was born. You said at that time that you wanted to rest and don't want to see anyone, including me."

"If you feel that the services of the nuns are not to your liking, just find another nun." "There are so many nuns in the world, and you can always find one that suits your liking."

She has stopped using her dowry to support the family since yesterday.

The old lady can change as many nuns as she wants, but she won’t pay anymore.

The old lady choked.

She didn't expect that Jiang would use the words she had said to block her.

This is really shooting yourself in the foot.

She could only watch Jiang leave.

Jiang carried Su Yaoyao back to the front yard to entertain the guests.

This reception lasted until the sunset.

After sending all the guests away, Jiang was about to deal with Nanny Li when she saw the concierge running over in a hurry.

Concierge: "Madam, sir, the envoy from the front courtyard is here with his grandson, and the envoy from the Tang courtyard is here too."

[Come to say thank you. 】

Jiang said calmly, "Please invite them in."

Su Chenghua was in a very unhappy mood.

Tang Yi was wronged in the house, and Tang Yi's father and grandfather came to ask for an explanation.

With such a big battle, this matter must not go well.

Su Chenghua didn't want to face the anger of Qianyuan's family at all.

He might as well take the opportunity to run away and find a way to get Liu Xiaoqin out of prison.

Su Chenghua gave the valet a look.

The boy understood and slipped out while Jiang was not paying attention.

Soon, the boy left and returned.

He walked in a hurry and looked anxious, "Master, there is something urgent in the court and I need you to come over quickly."

Su Chenghua's expression changed, "What!"

He looked at Jiang in embarrassment, "Madam..."

Jiang pretended not to notice Su Chenghua's tricks, "Go ahead, the court's affairs are important."

Su Chenghua looked serious, "Well, I'll leave Madam to worry about that."

After that, he strode away.

Su Yaoyao curled her lips.

[Scumbag dad has no sense of responsibility at all, he just pretends to be like that. 】

[It looks like he can act better than anyone on the stage. It’s a pity that he doesn’t act. 】

[But it just suits me that Daddy Scumbag is gone. 】

After a while, the concierge led the envoy from Qianyuan, the envoy from Tangyuan and Tang Yi in.

The front yard makes my hair gray, and I am over fifty.

He pushed Tang Yi forward, who had black handprints on his face.

"Madam, Tang and his grandson are here to express their gratitude."

Jiang pretended to be puzzled, "Why did Mr. Tang say this?"

Mr. Tang sighed.

"Madam, I don't know. Tang Yi plans to go to the lake today."

"It's just that a black handprint was smeared on the face, so that's all."

"Not long ago, Tang received news that when the boat Tang Yi was going to take for a lake tour reached the middle of the lake, there was a hole in the bottom of the boat due to severe corrosion."

"The whole boat sank into the lake and no one survived."

Mr. Tang looked at Su Yaoyao gratefully, with fear in his voice.

"If it weren't for this female doll's black handprint, my grandson would definitely not be able to escape this disaster."

The Tang Court envoy nodded in agreement.

"That's right, this girl's black handprints are well photographed."

"That's why our whole family came here to express our gratitude."

He handed a brocade box forward.

"This is for this female doll. Please accept it, Madam."

"Our Tang family owes this girl a great favor. Whenever the Tang family needs to be used, just ask, and the Tang family will definitely be obliged to use her."

[There is a need now. I want the front yard messenger to save my eldest brother. 】
