Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 477 Mother and Daughter Calm, Pei's Persuasion (1)
Pei Yi directly sent Ma Shi and Jiang Yueyan out of the city, watched them gradually disappear from sight, and then drove the carriage back to the General's Mansion to return to his command.

After walking for a while, Jiang Yueyan couldn't move anymore, she kicked away the small stones blocking the way, just stood there and said angrily, "Mother, why did you agree to leave them, only 300 taels of silver, we can eat and drink several years?"

Ma Shi sighed and wiped off the sweat from her forehead, but she felt a little dizzy after walking a few miles, and it was almost noon, when the sun was the strongest, she must have passed out .

Mrs. Ma glanced at Jiang Yueyan, and walked slowly to the shade of a tree beside the road to enjoy the shade.

Jiang Yueyan stomped her feet, bit her lip and followed suit. Seeing a rock next to her, she simply sat down on it.

After leaving the General's Mansion, both of them changed into the coarse cotton dresses they used to wear. Although Pei's mother allowed them to take away the newly made clothes, how could they be willing to wear those good clothes on the road? The people in the room saw that it was not just causing trouble.

"That Pei Yi is really too much. He doesn't even let us use the carriage, and just walks on these two legs. When will we be able to walk back?!"

With an angry expression on her face, Jiang Yueyan stretched out her hand and pulled out a handful of dog's tail grass beside her, wishing to crush it in her hands, as if this would calm her down a little.

"And this dress," Jiang Yueyan opened her lapel a little, her white and tender collarbone was rubbed a little red by the clothes, and her tears of grievance couldn't stop running up, "It's about to wear me down." Broken skin, mother, talk to me anyway!"

Hearing Jiang Yueyan's complaints, Ma Shi's heart was naturally depressed, but there is no way, if they don't leave, I'm afraid they won't get a single one at that time.

She could see that although Pei's mother is the old lady of the general's mansion, as long as Pei Yan focuses on Ji Chonglian, Pei's mother has no room to speak. Everything is centered on that woman, isn't it because of the pregnant woman in her stomach? Seeing two, I don't know if it's a man or a woman, so I became arrogant, what can I do in the future.

In the past, in Jiang Xiucai's hometown, Ma Shi also knew that there were several pregnant women with two children, either premature or dystocia. In short, few survived, and even fewer mothers and children were safe.

Ji Chonglian thought it was a blessing to be pregnant with two children, but she didn't know that it might be her death talisman!

Thinking of this, Madam Ma's heart skipped a beat, her eyes shone brightly under the shade of the trees, she squinted her eyes half-closed to look at Jiang Yueyan, and said softly, "Daughter, you really don't want to go back to your hometown?"

"Don't want to, don't want to, 1 don't want to!"

Jiang Yueyan shook her head vigorously, "300 taels of silver can buy at most [-] mu of land, but how can we afford to hire someone to plant it? If we rely on us, this good land can be cultivated to death! Renting to tenants for rent, [-] acres of land is not even a landlord, and the rent collected can only let our family take care of food and clothing, how can people live like this?"

Jiang Yueyan wanted to cry but had no tears. During these days in the general's mansion, her appetite had already been spoiled. If she were to go back to the old days, it would undoubtedly be like putting a knife on her neck, or the kind of grown-up A rusty blunt knife, sharpened slowly without suffocating people to death.

"You can count, but mother is not stupid!"

Ma Shi raised his lips slightly, but after a while he pursed his mouth and said: "But in the situation just now, we have to go if we don't want to go, you can look at Ayan's appearance, it's so cold that you can scare me to death!"

Jiang Yueyan bit her lips stubbornly, but still couldn't bear to reprimand Pei Yan, "I think my cousin is cold outside and hot inside, if there is no cousin there, maybe he will look at me differently!" Speaking of Turning around to look at Mashi here, holding her hand and shaking, "Mother, I just need a chance, if I and my cousin he... when the time comes, the raw rice is cooked, are you still afraid that he won't admit it?"

"Mom, I'm so unwilling!"

Jiang Yueyan covered her face and began to cry. She knew that they might never return to Shangjing after leaving, and she felt extremely sad when she thought that she would never see Pei Yan again.

She is not as shallow-sighted as Mrs. Ma, as long as 300 taels of silver is enough, if she marries into the general's mansion, it will be a lifetime of wealth and glory. By then, how many 300 taels will she have? I'm afraid I can't count .

Mrs. Ma patted Jiang Yueyan's shoulder for a few words of comfort, and seeing that she gradually stopped crying, she glanced left and right, and said in a low voice: "Mother is not reconciled, and Mother does not want to go back to her hometown to live that hard life again! "

Jiang Yueyan looked at Mrs. Ma with red eyes, "So what can we do if we don't want to? We have been kicked out now!"

But Mrs. Ma didn't answer this, and talked about other things, "Dear girl, you said that 300 taels of silver is enough for us to rent a small yard in Shangjing City, so we can have enough food and drink for at least a year."

As soon as Mrs. Ma finished speaking, Jiang Yueyan looked at her in astonishment, and said in confusion: "Mother, are you stupid? Even if you can live in Shangjing for a year, so what? We have to pay for it when we run out of money." When you go back to your hometown, there will be nothing left."

"You silly child," Mrs. Ma pointed at Jiang Yueyan's forehead, then leaned closer to her, and said, "Your cousin is pregnant with two children now, and you also know that she survived with two children in our hometown How many can there be? Either adults and children are gone together, or they can’t be born. If we can wait until your cousin is gone, and then ask your aunt, she will be soft-hearted. By then, your cousin will not be around Wouldn't it be easier for a person who knows the cold and the hot to marry you again?!" Having said this, he laughed smugly.

Jiang Yueyan's eyes lit up, and she looked at Mrs. Ma in surprise, "Mother, why didn't you say it earlier? If so, why should we leave Shangjing City in a hurry, and just find a place in the city? The stomach will have a result this year anyway, we only need to live in the city for another three months, maybe we don't have to wait as long as a year..."

Ma Shi raised his slanted eyes high, and a calculating smile flashed in his eyes, "If we don't pretend to leave Shangjing, how can your cousin be at ease? I think Pei Yi is here to see Look at us, you said if we don't step out of the gate of the capital, can he go back to his life with such peace of mind?"

At this time, Jiang Yueyan still had no reason not to nod her head, she switched Ma Shi's hand and acted like a baby with admiration, "Mother is still thoughtful."

The two mother and daughter then eagerly discussed Ji Chonglian's life and death. It seemed that entering the General's Mansion in a few months later had become an inevitable result. They didn't realize that what they were talking about was a human life, but happily walked all the way back.

Naturally, Ji Chonglian didn't know that Ma's mother and daughter had such epiphanies and exchanges after they left the city, and eagerly wanted to wait for her dystocia to die, and then wait for her to take the position of the general's wife.
