Noble Lady Jing Zhao

Chapter 28 Want to say goodbye to your son?

Mrs. Jiang gave her second son an angry look and said angrily, "Look, you might have fallen in love with that girl and want to marry Brother Yong!"

"How come, that girl's marriage has been settled."

Second Master Jiang quickly retorted.

The second master only had one legitimate son, who was now fifteen and had not yet announced their marriage, and was two years older than Ye Jingzhao.

Therefore, the old lady's first thought was that the second child wanted to marry that girl back as a daughter-in-law.

He was a little surprised when the second child mentioned that the fourth girl of the Ye family was engaged.

"Oh? Didn't Sanfang come back just now? Did he make the decision when he left Kyoto before?"

Mr. Jiang shook his head.

"It was decided when I returned to Kyoto."

"Which one did you decide?"

"The eldest son of the Ding Sumuhou family."

Mrs. Jiang frowned and murmured, "Why did you decide which one to go to?"

Thinking of the appearance of Mr. Xie and Ye Jingzhao, the old lady couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

After thinking about it, I thought of the eldest son's biological mother, Zhao Shi.

Mrs. Jiang's complexion sank again, she wondered that she didn't know about it, and probably not many people in the capital knew about it.

Second Master Jiang was proud when he saw his mother's face suddenly changed, and he twisted his ears with his hands.

"Second brother, tell me the truth. Is your sister secretly causing trouble with the marriage of that girl from the third bedroom?"

"It hurts, it hurts, mother, let go, my son's ears are about to fall off."

Mr. Jiang grimaced in pain.

But Madam Jiang refused to give up.

"Mother, my son really doesn't know. If you ask me, you might as well call the second sister back and ask."

Finally freed from his mother's coercion, Jiang Er hurriedly hid aside.

While rubbing his ears, he cried out that it hurts.

In the residence of Uncle Cheng En.

Because the second master is recuperating in the house, he is approaching his junior year again.

Mr. Song has already asked for leave from his uncle's house.

Every year Mr. Song would go out for a trip and would not return until March of the following year before returning to Kyoto.

Even though he is old now, he can't hold back Mr. Song's long-cherished wish to visit mountains, rivers and famous lakes.

Therefore, the school in Bofu also started a three-month suspension of classes.

On this day, it was finally free.

Mrs. Xie took her daughter for a stroll outside, so as to buy some things.

The mother and daughter went to the rouge shop together first.

Rare opportunity to get out of the house.

Ye Jingzhao wanted to take a good stroll.

It is a rare opportunity to go out of the house on weekdays.

"Mother, why don't we just have lunch at the restaurant outside today."

After thinking about it for a while, Mrs. Xie simply agreed to her daughter.

"That's fine, it's a rare occasion to come out."

The mother and daughter went to a restaurant to have dinner, and naturally asked for a fine private room.

Mama Wang and Jujube went out together today.

The chariot and horse on board is the smallest one in Bofu, and it is enough for the mother and daughter.

It doesn't look too ostentatious or extravagant.

Ye Jingzhao suddenly remembered that he had forgotten one thing, and while waiting for the dishes to be served, he said to his mother, "Mom, I still have one thing to buy, I will go back as soon as I go."

Mrs. Xie originally wanted to have lunch later and take another walk with her daughter.

Ye Jingzhao didn't want his mother to go back and forth.

He hurriedly left the restaurant with the red dates.

"Fourth Miss, what did you leave behind?" Hongzao followed, thinking of the items purchased today.

Nothing was left behind.

Ye Jingzhao walked into a jewelry shop, turned around and said to Hong Zao, "At the end of the new year, I think Mrs. Mu will be sending a holiday gift. I have already received a lot of things from Mrs. Mu, so naturally I should give some back now."

Only then did Hong Zao look clear and praised, "The Fourth Miss is still very attentive. I think Mrs. Mu will be very happy when she receives the jewelry from the Fourth Miss."

There is a dazzling array of Zhuchai jewelry on the shop.

Ye Jingzhao turned his head and thought.

Su Muhou's new funeral, Mrs. Mu will not dress up too luxuriously.

Thinking back to the few times I met Mrs. Mu in a hurry, she was all dressed in plain clothes, with only three or two red hairpins in her bun, and she didn't even see any earrings.

He also thought of the few times when he saw Mrs. Mu, the patterns on her clothes seemed to be patterns of jasmine flowers.

The line of sight passed over the rows of gold ornaments, and stopped directly on the silver ornaments.

On the black lacquer tray covered with dark green brocade, there were plain silver hairpins.

She looked at them one by one and took out a plain silver hairpin. Five tightly clustered jasmine flowers were carved on the silver hairpin, and the stamens were decorated with yellow gemstones in the middle.

It looks extremely realistic.

She made up her mind and chose this one.

A silver hairpin cost five taels of silver.

This is the self that she has saved for several years.

She gave all the money that the eldest aunt Liang used to subsidize the third room, and gave it to her mother for safekeeping.

Now I still have two taels left, thinking that I will harvest some Hongfeng at the end of the year, and then I will be able to make up for it soon.

So he gritted his teeth and took the silver hairpin with a ruthless heart.

The most precious part of this silver hairpin is the embellishment made of light yellow gemstones inlaid on the stamen.

Sophisticated yet luxurious.

It's just perfect.

When she returned to the restaurant, Ms. Xie saw the brocade box in her daughter's hand and asked, "What did you buy?"

Ye Jingzhao handed the brocade box to his mother.

Hongzao smiled and covered her mouth, jokingly saying, "Madam, Fourth Miss, this is a gift for Mrs. Mu."

Xie was a little surprised.

"Mother, my daughter thought that she had received a lot of jewelry from Mrs. Mu before, and now that it is the end of the year, she thought of giving some back as a token of her appreciation."

"That's right, you should walk around more in the future."

Mrs. Xie was very satisfied with her daughter's actions, she hadn't thought of this before.

He added, "It's rare to leave the house. I'm very busy at the end of the year. I don't know when I'll be able to come out again. So I just went to visit Mrs. Mu today."

After lunch, Mr. Xie went outside to buy some gifts.

Tell the coachman to go to Sumuhou's mansion.

When they arrived in front of the gate of Su Muhou's mansion, Mrs. Wang stepped forward to report back.

The boy at the door was stunned and glanced at the carriage parked at the door again.

Then he said, "Young one, go in first and make a call."

Mother Wang responded with a smile.

Mrs. Xie and her daughter got out of the carriage, and the mother and daughter were waiting in front of the carriage.

Waited for half a cup of tea.

Only a young man came out to answer.

Mrs. Xie came forward with her daughter and heard the young man say, "Unfortunately, the old lady is not in the house today, and our eldest lady is ill again. Please come back another day."

Ye Jingzhao saw the young man's expression erratic and looked a little panicked.

Thinking about it, I'm afraid there is something wrong with it.

She gently tugged on her mother's sleeve.

Mrs. Xie understood her daughter's thoughts.

He said to the young man, "Since Mrs. Mu is ill, and I happened to be here today, I should go and visit her, so as not to lose etiquette. Please make it convenient."

Mother Wang hurriedly took the broken silver and stuffed it into the boy's hand.

The boy pushed it away and refused to accept it.

"Madam, it's not that I'm unwilling, it's just a coincidence."

"The second lady is still in the mansion?"

Mrs. Xie suddenly mentioned the second wife of the Mu family, and the servant replied without thinking, "Second wife is here."

"Then please be accommodating to the Second Madam, and the Third Madam of the Ye family will come with her daughter to visit the Second Madam Mu."
