Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

The smile on Jiang Xuexiang's face widened, and the wrinkles at the corners of his smiling eyes became much deeper. Jiang Yichun couldn't help but feel a twitch in his heart when he looked at this face that was very similar to his father.

If his father was still alive, would this be the case now? Maybe he doesn't look as old as his uncle?

However, he quickly retracted his thoughts and secretly reminded himself not to be soft-hearted towards the Jiang family easily. Who knows who killed his father back then?

While the three of them were talking, a group of people came over from the side path. Bai Ruozhu took a quick look. They were led by two women, followed by several little girls.

"Brother, we heard that Brother Chun is back, so we came here to greet him. This is great!" an older woman said with a smile, her eyes filled with tears when she looked at Jiang Yichun. .

Jiang Xuexiang looked at Jiang Yichun hurriedly and said, "This is your third aunt. She used to live in our house. Do you still remember it?"

Jiang Yichun nodded slightly and said calmly: "Remember."

He didn't have a good relationship with this third aunt, but they never had any conflicts. It was just that before he left the Jiang family, his third uncle's family had been living in the house.

Mrs. Jiang Zhang was not unhappy because of Jiang Yichun's attitude. She smiled and introduced to the girl behind her: "My dear, this is Yichun. Do you still remember it?"

Jiang Zhixin smiled slightly at Jiang Yichun and said, "Brother, long time no see."

Jiang Yichun nodded at her. He was relatively polite to the younger members of the Jiang family.

Another woman next to me said anxiously: "Brother Chun must not recognize us. I am your eldest cousin, and these are your two cousins ​​Dou Yun and Dou Yu."

Mrs. Jiang Zhang was afraid that Jiang Yichun didn't know, so she explained from the side: "Your eldest cousin is the eldest son of the old lady's sister."

When Jiang Yichun left the Jiang family, his eldest cousin's family had not yet moved in, so he was not familiar with them and only glanced at them lightly. Mrs. Dou Zheng's face froze and she felt very embarrassed.

Dou Yun was the oldest among the girls and her manners were the most elegant. She saluted Jiang Yichun respectfully and said, "I have met my eldest cousin and my eldest cousin-in-law."

Bai Ruozhu glanced at the girl. The two women had been talking to her for a long time. They treated her as if she were nothing and did not mention her at all. They seemed to look down on her status. However, Dou Yun knew how to be polite and bowed to her politely. .

"Ruozhu has also met two aunts and three sisters. Our sudden visit has caused trouble for you." Bai Ruozhu said politely.

However, apart from the fact that Dou Yu, who was less than ten years old, looked younger than her, Dou Yun and Jiang Zhixin looked older than her. She had benefited from Jiang Yichun and could be called her younger sister.

Mrs. Jiang Zheng hurriedly smiled at her and looked very friendly, "Why is it troublesome? We are so happy that you are back. Hey, where is my sister-in-law? Doesn't she know that Brother Chun and his wife are back?"

A look of embarrassment flashed across Jiang Xuexiang's face, "I asked her to prepare lunch."

Bai Ruozhu snickered in her heart, as expected, there was always intrigue in the big house.

"Let's go see grandpa quickly. Don't keep him waiting." Jiang Zhiyi reminded her at the right time, relieving her father.

Everyone continued to walk towards the old man's yard. Bai Ruozhu quietly looked at the situation in Jiang Mansion and couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

The last time she saw Jiang Zhiyi and Jiang Yihong, she saw that the Jiang family was not very wealthy, and even said that they felt a little wronged by the children. She also thought that Mr. Jiang Ge had "breeze in his sleeves" and looked down on people who were engaged in business, so she relied on them. Naturally, he and Jiang Xuexiang had a tight life with their small salary.

Now that she has arrived at Jiang Mansion, she is even more certain that Jiang Mansion is in decline.

She heard that the house was given to her by the late emperor, and it had been at least ten or twenty years now. Although the house was large enough, with a well-designed layout and scenery, many places could tell that it had not been renovated for many years. It's even dilapidated.

For example, the paint on the handrails in the corridor is mottled, and some places are affected by moisture and have mold stains. Jiang Mansion doesn't even have anyone to take care of it.

There were also some weeds sprouting along the path leading to the backyard, and no one was removing the weeds.

Coupled with the appearance of Jiang Zheng and others, all of whom were dressed a little bit old, we can see the current situation of the Jiang family.

Bai Ruozhu sneered in her heart, Mr. Jiangge was really poor and had nothing to offer. He couldn't think of anything he could bring to the table.

Jiang Yichun didn't speak a word along the way, and Bai Ruozhu had no choice but to chat with the female family members of the Jiang family. She and Jiang Zhiyi wanted to get acquainted with each other, so she asked casually: "There are some cousins ​​in the house, right? Are you going with Brother Hong?" Are you in school yet?"

"Brother Hong and Brother Xun of the third uncle's family are both studying in Chang'an Academy, and cousins ​​Xingde and Xingji of the Dou family are studying in private schools." Jiang Zhiyi replied.

Mrs. Dou Zheng was a little unhappy when she heard this, and unexpectedly glanced at Jiang Zhiyi.

Bai Ruozhu was a little surprised. To be able to study in Chang'an Academy, one had to be admitted as a scholar. Unexpectedly, Jiang Yihong was already a scholar at a young age and was even more perverted than her second brother.

"I remember Brother Hong is only fifteen years old, and he is already a scholar. He is really talented and learned." Bai Ruozhu praised sincerely.

Jiang Zhiyi burst out laughing and said, "He is just a nerd. He only eats and reads. He is considered a scholar. He doesn't know anything about the world."

Jiang Xuexiang smiled beside him and did not object. His eyes were full of warmth.

"He's still young. It's a good thing that he can concentrate on his studies. It might as well be socializing again in a few years." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

While they were talking like this, everyone arrived at Mr. Jiang Ge's yard. Bai Ruozhu took one look and almost burst out laughing.

It is said that Mr. Jiang Ge likes to play "two-sleeved breeze" and is incorruptible, but there is no need to go to such an extent, right? He even built a thatched cottage in his own yard. Did he really want others not to know that he was poor?

Jiang Yichun's eyes flashed with disdain, but he was not surprised. It can be seen that before he left Jiang Mansion, Mr. Jiang Ge lived like this.

At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and a few strands of thatch on the roof were blown away. Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but laugh.

In order to cover it up, she hurriedly shouted: "Oh, why does the old man live in a place like this? Didn't he say that he is not in good health and I am sick in bed? How can I take good care of myself in such a simple living environment?"

Jiang Yichun suppressed a smile and his eyes were a little bright. He knew that his wife must have done it on purpose. She screamed "Ouch" so loudly. Was it because she was afraid Jiang Ge couldn't hear her?

It's not that Bai Ruozhu looks down on people who advocate frugality, but Mr. Jiang Ge is too deliberate, obviously just for others to see.

There was a violent coughing sound in the room, and Mr. Jiangge's hoarse voice came out: "Someone is making a noise outside, go away quickly, don't disturb me from rest!"

"Dad, Brother Chun and his wife are here to see you." Jiang Xuexiang said hurriedly, but because of the old man's words, he stopped and did not dare to rush into the house for fear of making the old man angry again.
