Chapter 762: Good News Not Bad News
two young girls well.The two little girls, since they returned home these past few days, have been practically chanting "Old Lady Li" and "Miss" nonstop. They bring it up every now and then.From thei...Jia Yin had some magical abilities.
Even thanks to her magical abilities, the whole family and the entire village survived the arduous journey of migration, not a single soul perished, and they now enjoy good times.
This is known to everyone in the family, even those close by in the village.
When Jia Yin was little, people at home would still say things like, "Fu Niuer is the most blessed."
Later, the family tacitly stopped talking about it.
Since the child grew up, there are more and more people coming and going at home.
Spreading it around could be more harmful than beneficial for a girl.
For example, back then, Wu Cuifang wouldn't have stolen Funiu'er and given her to Wu Ergou as a lucky charm for gambling if she hadn't believed that "Funiu'er was lucky."
Now, years later, suddenly someone again wants to put the three words "good fortune" on top of Jia Yin's name.
Even intentionally escalating the situation to the point of everyone being aware and believing it wholeheartedly, what is the reason for this
Have they truly discovered Jia Yin's amazing abilities, or is there something else going on!
As for Li Lao Er, he didn't believe it.
In recent years, our family has been doing well financially and no longer needs my niece's help. As a result, she has rarely shown off her magical abilities.
It's a subtle display, also carefully concealed, never raising suspicion.
For example, the potted flowers in the Hundred Gardens are always transported from the warm house of the county princess's mansion.
Where did the potted flowers in the greenhouse come from
That was the sight of Ercu's trading caravans traveling all over, returning from everywhere.
Outsiders at most would be surprised by Princess Kang Le's skill in gardening, and by the fact that the glazed room could be as warm as spring even in winter.
I would absolutely doubt that these flowers are legitimate.
Besides the discovery of her magical abilities, there's only one other possibility: someone wants to use the phrase "Good Fortune" to harm Jia Yin!
Li Lao'er figured it out and said, "Fu Niuer, you should stay home these few days and go out less.
“I’ll have someone look into this. If there’s something fishy going on, we better get ahead of it.”
"Alright, I'll listen to Second Uncle," Jia Yin obediently replied, and then said, "By the way, Second Uncle, there was a woman wearing a pale pink dress today who kept trying to draw attention to me."
I inquired about the woman from the Gu family, and I learned that she was the cousin of the mistress of the Gu household's sister-in-law. Her husband's surname was Zou, and he worked as a clerk in the office of the Jingzhao Yin.
"Second Uncle, investigate this woman. See if she's being manipulated. Perhaps we can catch the person behind it."
"Alright, you don't have to worry about it. Go home early." Li Lao Er nodded and replied, "Tell my grandmother for me that I'll be staying at Earl's Mansion these next few days and won't be returning."
Jia Yin replied, and they chatted for a few more moments. After finishing their ice drinks, she left the teahouse and boarded the carriage.
When Li Lao Er saw that it was Zheng San Jiang driving the carriage, he felt at ease and didn't send any extra soldiers to escort him.
Last spring, perhaps due to the lingering effects of the Fuhong Paste case, someone ambushed him as he was taking a bus home at dusk.
At that time, he only brought Zheng He and Zheng Sanjiang. He thought the situation was very dangerous, so he took out the dagger from his boot.
As a result, Zheng He didn't even have a chance to make a move. Zheng Sanjiang single-handedly took care of the four assassins.
This time, he truly saw Zheng Sanjiang's abilities.
After returning home and informing the family, everyone unanimously agreed to send Zheng Sanjiang to be by Jia Ren's side as a constant shadow, never leaving his side.
Li Laer had a hereditary title of "Baron", and his entourage, including Zheng He, Zheng Feng, and several veterans, were openly allowed to carry swords and other weapons.
Jiaren was only accompanied by Goureng'er and often went out.
If you are taken advantage of by a bad person, it will be dangerous.
But with a master like Zheng Sanjiang, no one will ever dare to harm the eldest grandson of the Li family again!
The reason why Jia Yin wasn't given more attention wasn't because her family didn't love her, but because she had Shui Yun and Shui Ling by her side, as well as Ye Shan and Dong Mei.
Even, she herself had been trained by Zhang Shenyi's devilish methods for several years, with countless strange and exotic medicinal powders on her body.
If anyone dares to scheme against her, they'd probably die without knowing how...
Today, Jia Ren stayed home with Wan'er. Ye Shan went out to run errands, and Zheng Sanjiang, who couldn't sit still, took the job of driving for Jia Yin.
Back through the hoofbeats, all the way back to Broken Gold Beach.
It was the hottest part of the afternoon, the sun blazing fiercely as if it would melt everything.
Even the most diligent farmer needs to rest and take a short nap at this time.
Thus, the back of the house and under the trees, spreading out mats became a spacious big kang.
The few big trees at the village entrance were the most beloved place for the villagers. They spread mats under the shade of the trees.
The mischievous boys, in their loose pants and bare chests, slept sprawled out.
The men, with wet cloths on their heads, were snoring loudly.
Only women, their hands still busy with needles and thread, either sewing shirts for the children or patching up shoes.
Occasionally she would yawn and fan the men and children with a hand-held fan, keeping the flies away.
The traditional image of a woman who is hardworking, enduring hardship, and puts others before herself is simply brought to life at this moment...
The Li family's carriage returned from outside, slowing down in advance and not waking the sleeping man and children.
It was the women who cautiously stood up and bowed to Jia Yin as she got off the carriage.
Jia Yin waved her hand and went into the courtyard.
Soon, Shui Ling brought out a water flask.
The water bottle was filled with refreshing iced snow pear juice, which was soothing and relieved the noise.
Each woman received a bowl, and after taking a sip, they all exclaimed how refreshing and delicious it was. They smiled and thanked him gratefully.
Shui Ling pointed to the courtyard and said with a smile, "The county princess said that you should be able to sleep for a while and not overwork yourselves.
"When the children at home grow up and want to filial piety to their old mother, but their old mother is exhausted, how can this be"
The women all chuckled, nodding quickly and responding in hushed tones.
"Alright, we listen to the Lady's wishes."
"Yes, we hear the Lady of the County."
After finishing the water in their bowls, they closed their eyes beside the man.
Shuiling skipped happily back to the courtyard, carrying her water bottle.
The hall was cool because of two large ice basins and the eaves that shaded it from the sun.
Li Laotai was watching the stars and crescent moon as she napped, she turned her head and whispered to Jia Yin in a low voice, "How was today's flower viewing banquet Was it fun"
"This is fun, grandma."
Good news should always be shared, but not bad news.
She amused the old woman by playing a prank, sticking paper notes all over Xu Xi's face like cards. The old woman was so delighted that she couldn't stop laughing.
"You young girls gathered together, it's lively." Li Laotai was very happy that her granddaughter had several friends.
Suddenly, she remembered something and said: "Just now, Zhimin from the Liu family sent someone to our house to ask for Biyu Gua. They said they lost a game with their friends and were punished to treat them to Biyu Gua."
Didn't he also go to the Gu family's flower viewing banquet I wonder what game he was playing.
I was still thinking, to have Liu's family bring you two jade gourds so that you can eat them with your sisters.
Later on, I thought to myself, there are so many people in the Gu family. What if someone gets angry because they don't get a share Wouldn't that turn a good deed into a bad one.
"In a few days, the melon garden will be in bloom. You should invite all your female friends over to my place for a feast."
"Okay, Grandma," Jia Yin replied politely.
Perhaps Zhimin knew she had left early and was worried something might have happened to her, so he came up with an excuse to come home.
So, she took the opportunity to send Shui Ling back to Liu's house to say hello.
As for our home, life continues to be peaceful and harmonious.
Li Laoer sent out most of his men to investigate who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes.
Before the results could be determined, rumors on the street that Lady Kang Le was a lucky star, who turned any misfortune into good fortune, spread like wildfire.
Even matters from years ago, like when Baozhu choked and was saved, were brought up.
The matter of the young maidservant from Tonggu's family drowning, put together with... appeared in the mouths of all idlers in teahouses and wine shops...
Babes, two updates today. Huahua went to get the report for her grandmother at home and ran all day long. Forgive me, forgive me~ Starting from the day after tomorrow (the 28th), I'll add more chapters and make up for the chapter that I owe today~~~~y in grandma's arms forever. 。Lao Li didn't know her granddaughter's thoughts. She was coaxed into giggling and kissed the little girl's chubby cheeks, instructing, "Mr. Wen and your Uncle Liu are dri...
