"Listening to sister's words, it seems that there must be some sort of story behind it."

Eldest Miss Jiang's face was slightly red as she handed me an orange. It was round and very cute.

With difficulty, I brought one of my hands under my nose to take a sniff. The smell of the incense assaulted my nostrils and my entire being immediately felt refreshed.

It was only the middle of May, and although oranges were also grown locally, it would still take a month for them to go public. Look again at this orange color bright, the fruit is full, is no doubt Gannan navel orange.

The fruit was the most precious thing in the world, and if the fruit was transported early, the fruit would not be ripe, so the taste could not be considered high quality. The fruit was the most delicate, and if it was transported early, the fruit would not be ripe, so the fruit could not be considered high quality. Just tell the story!

Just from this point alone, one could see the importance that the Jiang Clan placed on the family of Big Sis Jiang and Big Sis.

In the past when I went to the banquet, although the clothes made of Miss Jiang's clothes were expensive, the bedding underneath was just a large cotton blanket. Even the patterns on the clothes were the same as the clothes made by the maid next to me.

How could he buy such expensive fruit for his daughter to eat when he couldn't even make a good robe for her?

To Eldest Miss Jiang, the only change was that she changed from a young lady of the Jiang family to a young lady waiting to be married!

"How can it be considered a legend!" While I was playing around with it in my hand, Miss Jiang had already cut open the skin with a small silver knife.

"Sister and I weren't separated from each other when we were young. We lived together in this courtyard. At that time, this courtyard wasn't called the Lunar Restaurant, it was called the Loulan Fragrance Courtyard."

Noticing my interest, Miss Jiang decided to talk about the origin of the courtyard.

When we were young, mother invited a female teacher for us sisters. Teacher was originally the daughter of an Elementary Scholar and was engaged to a famous family. Who would have thought that when the young master of that family suddenly died from an emergency when he was fifteen?" At that time, her father had already become a High Scholar and was in charge of government affairs in the Ministry of Revenue. In a short time, he would be given the title of an official, a high ranked assistant minister, and a low ranked county magistrate. Her father didn't want to disgrace her by marrying her daughter, so he asked her to marry into the family as a widow. But her husband didn't want to spend his life in a ruckus with the family. Coincidentally, her mother and her husband had some friendship, so she came to stay at my house to teach us and our sisters how to live together.

I'm afraid that this lady mister is not only unwilling to end her life as a widow, but …

Love can often make a woman unexpectedly strong and fragile.

What surprised me was Madame Jiang.

The sharp end of such a wave would actually choose to take this girl in. It was a far cry from the current her.

"Here!" Big Miss Jiang handed me an orange tied with a toothpick. "It's so sweet. You should try it!"

Sugar is full, sweet and sour, making one's appetite go wild.

Big Miss Jiang saw the satisfied expression on my face and smiled. She then lowered her head and continued to cut the orange.

"Teacher is a very sensitive woman. She often feels that her life has been very unfortunate and that her life has been rough. Once wrote a line of "Monarch like the full moon, night to reduce light" poem. At that time, my brother was already thirteen years old and lived in the outer court. He just so happened to have cleared the place for his mother and sent gifts to us sisters on her orders.

Big Miss Jiang smiled as she handed another piece over, looking a little depressed.

"My brother became angry and shouted loudly in the yard," My lady has been taught to be gentle and respectful. May I ask why you have taught me two young girls' greed and resentment?! " "Mister was so frightened that his hands trembled, and even the book fell to the ground."

Eldest Miss Jiang giggled twice, looking lively and bright at the same time.

In front of my eyes, I saw a young man flying through the air. He was standing in the courtyard of his two younger sisters. Hearing the gentle voice of the female teacher reciting the poem, his face was red and his brows were tightly knitted.

Unconsciously, I touched the embroidery on my sleeve and smiled.

In the words of Second Miss Jiang, this brother of hers was very rebellious.

Because I like the pavilion in my hometown, I have to build a pavilion in my new home. In order to prepare for the repair of the pavilion, I have to go on a tour …

But from what Eldest Miss Jiang said, this young master Jiang seemed to have changed his appearance again.

I covered my mouth with my sleeve.

Although in the eyes of the two sisters, their older brother was very good, but it seemed that the three siblings were especially close. The two young misses were very dependent on their older brother!

"The young lady shed tears at that moment. After that, my mother called my brother over and punished him to go to school every day to kneel at the ancestral hall. But my brother had only knelt for three days and the female teacher had already asked for leave, so my mother tried to persuade him to stay but to no avail. The best thing she could do was to give Teacher a generous sum of money and send her away … "

A handkerchief embroidered with a plain satin butterfly was crumpled into a ball by Eldest Miss Jiang, her face carrying a hint of a sneer.

Monarch like a full moon, dimming the splendor of night?

It wouldn't be too much to say it was a grudge poem, but it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she was deeply moved.

However, such vivid and tactful words seemed to be the work of a woman who was yearning for her lover.

"Where did she go after she resigned?"

"She is the fourth wife of the current envoy from Hubei province."

Big Miss Jiang smiled, as if she had already expected that I would ask this question.

This was it!

He dared to challenge his father, who was going to be the assistant minister, even disregarding his filial piety. How could there not be a powerful figure backing him up?

That Hubei Province is a land of rice and fish, and it is hard to tell how much taxed rice it will give to the imperial government every year. At the same time, it is also a place where the imperial government can change generations, so naturally, the new emperor would have to rely on these local officials to ascend to the throne.

If the Tartars had set their sights on the Son of Heaven and invaded the Central Plains, the Emperor would have to rely on the help of these envoys to raise the grain. A small assistant minister was nothing compared to a country.

I'm afraid that at that time, this female mister and that envoy Bu was already secretly knotted, and it was just missing an opportunity!

Some women were raised outside the house by men and wholeheartedly wanted to be their ancestors, but intelligent women preferred to stay in the outer chamber. If they were separated from the main chamber, it would be even better.

She had gone to complain to Madame Jiang about her intention of staying in the Jiang manor, but had changed her mind in just three days. No matter how she tried to persuade her father to stay, she could not.

That person was Young Master Jiang.

However, a thirteen year old youngster knows that this is the fastest way to achieve his goals.

"Did you not suspect...?"

I didn't know what to say after that, but hearing Miss Jiang's mysterious words, it seems that she understood what I meant.

"I don't know how long Mother has regretted this. She has never told me that we sisters and masters obeyed her, and that we only met once."

Big Miss Jiang smiled gently and poured me a cup of tea from the teapot.

The young miss of an official's house had once served in a side room, and her teeth had fallen off when word of this spread.

Anyone would understand what Madame Jiang was doing.

"Have a cup of tea!" Big Miss Jiang's heroic eyes were filled with a gentle smile. "Don't judge the oranges by their tasty taste. You'll feel like you're going to lose all of your teeth in a moment. A cup of bitter tea will be much better!"

"Sigh!" This marriage is definitely different! " I mischievously looked at her as I smiled and sighed. "I don't know who brother-in-law is, but he's going to be happy!"

"I can't stop you from eating!" Big Miss Jiang laughed as she pushed me away, the melancholy on her face intensifying.

"Good!" Good! I won't say it, I won't say it! " I glared at her. "She hasn't even gotten married yet and she's already with her husband's family. I really want to cry for Lady Jiang!"

Eldest Miss Jiang blushed.

"The more you talk about it, the more powerful you are!" She reached out her hand and tickled me.

I was always tickling, laughing so hard that the mothers in the yard were alarmed, and I asked if it was all right to go straight into the house.

"Your young mistress is too embarrassed to even allow people to talk!" I smiled as I dodged and shouted loudly towards the outside.

A tall mother in parrot green lake silk walked in from the sunlight outside. The wrinkles on her mouth made her look even more serious.

I'm here as a guest, so it's not good for me to talk about it.

Big Miss Jiang stuck out her tongue at me, slightly squatting down and steadily saying, "Thank you, mother. Let's sit and talk!"

When the mother saw me standing at the side, she moved her mouth but didn't say anything. She just gave a few orders and left.

"Look! It's all your fault! " Eldest Miss Jiang shot me a glance before grumbling mischievously, "Come here, let me comb your hair!"

Due to the intense movements just now, Miss Jiang's fair face was red like a blooming lotus flower, alluring and alluring to the extreme. Ye Zichen looked at her happily, then completely wiped away the depression from his face.

He was happy for the moment, but this uneasy feeling would probably last until the wedding night.

There was only one good day in life, so he hoped that everything would go smoothly.

I looked at Miss Jiang who was helping me comb my hair in the mirror behind me. She had the gentleness of a grown woman when compared to a young girl.

This is what a proper girl should look like, right?

I couldn't help but feel a little lost, as if the corner of my heart was empty.

He didn't even have a chance in his previous life, let alone this life.

"What happened to you?"

The hand that combed my hair paused, and in the silver-plated mirror a young woman's face, full of doubt, was reflected.
