One Child and Two Treasures: The Divine Doctor's Daughter

Chapter 123 Eating from the Bowl and Looking at the Pot

In the hot summer, in the distant pond, the sharp corners of the small lotus are exposed and slowly bloom.

The inside of the water pavilion is cool, and there is a faint fragrance of flowers from time to time.

Jiang Jinyue also entered the water pavilion, and immediately saw Mrs. Hou who was joking and joking in front of her.

She seemed to be more luxurious, with fragrant clothes, perhaps because Song Zihang had recovered from his illness, the original gloom between his brows disappeared, and the whole person became more calm and generous.

Seeing Jiang Jinyue coming in, she waved her hand.

"Baptized Moon, come."

And standing beside her was Jiang Qingge with a distorted smile.

Jiang Qinggehou's mansion came early, Tang Qing should have come in a hurry, and he never thought that Jiang Jinyue had been in the study of the Marquis in the distant mountains, so Tang Qing was directly taken into the opposite direction from the waterside pavilion, so he missed giving Jiang Qingge a hand. When she heard the news, she had no idea that Jiang Bainyue would be here today.

"Mrs. Hou."

Jiang Jinyue came forward to pay respects, smiling sweetly.

"You are still so polite to me."

Madam Hou had an elegant demeanor, and she grabbed Jiang Jinyue's hand intimately, her eyes full of smiles.

"It's true for you two sisters. You have to come in two carriages. I stood at the door and waited for you for a long time, but I didn't arrive."

Jiang Qingge twitched the corners of his mouth, hanging his arms very cutely.

Jiang Jinyue raised her eyebrows, asked the maid at the back to serve another glass of wine, and said gracefully while holding the glass.

"Mrs. Hou said that Jinyue has no place to be ashamed. If Jinyue accepts the punishment, a glass of thin wine will be considered an apology."

"It's almost there."

Mrs. Hou smiled and said to Jiang Jinyue that she was forgiven.

The lotus feast has been open for a long time. Although Mrs. Hou has a gentle smile on her face, she is always acting like a Hou family. Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Jinyue came, her tone changed immediately. See you next time.

Everyone's minds are spinning.

Before the dinner started, Jiang Jinyue was pulled by Mrs. Hou and sat next to her. On the other side was Jiang Qingge who was smiling awkwardly, and the opposite of Jiang Qingge, coincidentally, was Mrs. Yin of the Earl's Mansion.

This table is really a hodgepodge of hot hands. Jiang Qingge's face has been reluctant since Jiang Jinyue appeared, and he was sitting on pins and needles.

Jiang Jinyue pursed her lips and suppressed a smile, thinking that the arrangement of the meeting was probably arranged by Mrs. Hou on purpose. She should have seen Jiang Qingge's calculations last time. Well, today's scene is obviously a warning to Jiang Qingge.

Think about how smart this Mrs. Yuanshan Hou is?

She can single-handedly calculate the days when the original owner was bullied in the Hou Mansion, and she can figure it out slowly if she is able to bend and stretch. How could she not guess Jiang Qingge's Xiaojiujiu?

Mrs. Hou has a clear distinction between love and hate, and she is extremely protective of the calf. After Jiang Jinyue rescued Song Zihang, she stood with her regardless of everything. How could this person's character allow her precious son to stop being picky and half-hearted like Jiang Qingge?
So, today's meal, Jiang Qingge had a hard time from the beginning to the end.

In order to increase the atmosphere, Yuanshan Hou Mansion specially set up a Liyuan stage in the water pavilion today. When the banquet started, the famous actors on the stage had already started to sing.

It sang The Story of the West Chamber, which is loved by all the female relatives.

Madam Hou gave Jiang Jinyue a piece of dried pagoda tree flower, and said in a low voice.

"This is the Sophora japonica flower that people specially picked from Zhuangzi this year. It is very refreshing. Try it."

Jiang Jinyue thanked her, and saw that the resentment on Jiang Qingge's face was beginning to be unbearable, staring at the piece of dried pagoda tree flower in her bowl.

Jiang Jinyue smiled, lowered her head and said to Mrs. Hou.

"Madam Hou might as well get a piece for my sister, it seems that my sister likes it too?"

"My sister was joking."

Only then did Jiang Qingge realize that his eyes were too straightforward, and he quickly lowered his eyes and restrained his expression.

Jiang Jinyue didn't intend to let her go, but Jiang Qingge nodded his head, he would be sorry for the original owner if he didn't hit her twice.

"So my sister doesn't like it? It's a disappointment to Mrs. Hou's good intentions."

"..."

Jiang Qingge was overwhelmed with anger, put down his chopsticks, and turned around with a smile on his face.

"Sister, don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep, don't forget your father's earnest teachings."

The implication is that Jiang Jinyue talks too much, so hurry up and eat!
Jiang Jinyue also put down her chopsticks, paused and sighed, and then said quietly.

"I really envy my sister. It turns out that my father would teach my sister like this, but my father has never treated Jinyue with such kindness."

Lady Earl Yin, who was sitting opposite, had a flash of expression.

People in the capital seem to be ignorant of the affairs in Dingguohou's mansion, but in fact, who doesn't know the discord inside?
The old lady and the Jiang family have had a lot of quarrels over the years, it's not that none of the rumors have leaked out, Jiang Jinyue and the old lady have gotten closer during this time, the relationship between them may not be as friendly as it appears on the surface.

To put it bluntly, the Marquis of Dingguo's Mansion now relies on Jiang Jinyue's good marriage, and Jiang Youcai, the powerless Marquis, has long existed in name only.

Who has been at the feet of the emperor in the capital for many years, who is not a person who takes one step and sees ten steps?Wanting to marry Jiang Qingge is nothing more than hoping to establish a relationship with Li Zongyu through Jiang Jinyue.

If Jiang Youcai is divorced from Jiang Jinyue, then is there any point in marrying Jiang Qingge?
Mrs. Yin of the Earl's Mansion calmly picked up a piece of fatty meat and put it in a bowl. She didn't want to be rude, but she felt a little disgusted while eating.

In Earl's Mansion before, Jiang Qingge and Jiang Jinyue's sisters were extremely friendly and close, but now they seem to be unhappy in Yuanshanhou's Mansion.
Jiang Qingge grasped the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, his face was not very good-looking, so he forced a smile and said.

"Sister, don't talk nonsense. Father has always been a bowl of water. Maybe you have forgotten it."

"Father, if the bowl of water was leveled, we sisters wouldn't be so disrespectful to appear at Madam Hou's place today."

Jiang Jinyue lowered her head, eating the unique flavor of dried Sophora japonica, eating very slowly.

This posture makes others look somewhat aggrieved.

Jiang Qingge gritted his teeth. At this moment, he wanted to jump out of this inexplicable tear, but it was already too late, so he could only continue to fight with a smile on his face.

"My younger sister is at home now, busy with embroidering wedding dresses all day long, and my father doesn't know that my younger sister also wants to come to Mrs. Hou's place."

"Then Father shouldn't just send the invitation to my sister. If Mrs. Hou insisted on inviting me, Baptist Moon would not even know that there is a lotus banquet in Hou's residence today."

As he spoke, Jiang Jinyue's eyes were filled with tears, and he complained softly.

"Jiyue also asked why my sister stayed behind closed doors these two days to read her homework poems. It turned out that she knew the news earlier and was preparing at home."

Mrs. Marquis Yin's chopsticks were placed heavily on the dining table.

Her complexion was uglier than Jiang Qingge's.

She hadn't figured it out before, why her intention was so obvious, Su Ruoshui didn't even intend to move at all, it turned out to be...

Well, since Jiang Qingge despises her son so arrogantly, then it's not like she can't marry a famous lady!
