Chapter 29: Made-to-order handkerchiefs

Ever since the old lady saw the handkerchief, Hua Cheng's eyelids have been twitching, with an ominous premonition, and when the old lady showed the handkerchief, the premonition came true.

This handkerchief turned out to be the one Jiang Hongzhi ordered!

At that time, because he was surprised by Jiang Hongzhi's painter, he looked at the pattern of the handkerchief several times, and now he could recognize it even if he saw it from a long distance away.

He turned his head to look at Jiang Hongzhi, saw that he was looking at him, and was taken aback for a moment, and when he was about to persuade Jiang Hongzhi not to be impulsive, Jiang Hongzhi spoke first, saying that the handkerchief could not be collected.

The old lady was just when she was happy, when Jiang Hongzhi suddenly poured such a basin of cold water down, her old face suddenly changed: "My third son, it's just a handkerchief, why can't I take it away?"

"That's right," Jiang Yuehe echoed, "Third brother, could it be that you said that on purpose because you couldn't come up with a decent gift?"

Jiang Hongzhi walked out from the crowd and bowed to the old lady: "Grandmother, it's not because my grandson is jealous, it's because I can't take this handkerchief."

"Nonsense! It's just a handkerchief, what else can mother take if she is happy!" Jiang Jiande added when he saw the old lady's face was ugly.

"Dare to ask eldest brother and second sister," Jiang Hongzhi continued to be courteous, "How much is this handkerchief worth?"

"Why are you asking this?" Jiang Yun looked down at him, his eyes almost turned up to the sky, and said mockingly, "Could it be that you want to buy one too?"

"The third brother doesn't have a wealthy mother's family, so he is not as good as the elder brother and the second sister. Naturally, he dare not think about this handkerchief, which is hard to buy for a thousand dollars. The grandson thought," Jiang Hongzhi turned the conversation to the old lady, "Grandmother certainly won't." Dare to think."

"Third, what do you mean?" The old lady frowned, and the more she listened, the more she felt that there was something in his words.

Jiang Hongzhi lowered his head and asked, "May I ask father, can you afford this handkerchief with your salary and the land rent?"

Jiang Jiande was taken aback, estimated the price, and counted again with his hands in his sleeves. Not to mention the burden, even his salary of more than ten years could not afford it: "What are you asking for this? Aunt Chen's family is rich, so I don't allow Do they give generous gifts!"

"Father's words are wrong," Jiang Hongzhi said, "Aunt Chen's natal family is rich and noble, who else knows except the family? There are many guests present today, and their eyes are attracted by the handkerchief. If the news of today is spread Go to the manor, father, do you think they will pass on that the son of the Hou's mansion gave a valuable handkerchief, or that the aunt of the Hou's mansion spent a lot of money?"

"This..." Jiang Jian was speechless, and the title of "auntie" sounded nice, but at best she was a servant girl, and she couldn't get on the stage at all. If it spread, it would naturally be the son of the Hou family.

"Since it is said that the young master of the Hou's mansion gave it to you, the world will definitely wonder where the money for the handkerchief that the young man of the Hou's mansion came from."

Jiang Jiande's eyes widened suddenly, where else could it come from? Of course it came from his pocket!How could he afford such an expensive handkerchief with his little salary and land rent!

"Father has always been a clean and honest official, but if someone with a heart makes a fuss about this matter, saying that you are corrupt and accept bribes, and spend a lot of money to win your mother's happiness, then your reputation will be ruined. Therefore, grandma, in order to avoid causing trouble in the future , this handkerchief is absolutely unacceptable."

Jiang Jiande's complexion changed all the time. He has been an official for many years and has always kept himself clean. He dare not even touch the words of corruption and bribery, for fear that one day he will be blackmailed and the whole family will be implicated.But if the old lady really accepts this congratulatory gift, then he is really wading into muddy water, and he can't tell.

The old lady came to her senses after a little dialing from him, she felt that compared with the reputation of the Hou Mansion, it was nothing.Immediately asked Mother Xu to return the gift: "I can't accept this gift, I can't accept it. Take it back quickly!"

To be unilaterally returned is as humiliating as a slap in the face. Jiang Yun glared at Jiang Hongzhi viciously, and was about to bow his head to admit his mistake, but Jiang Yuehe still insisted: "Grandmother! This handkerchief is not worth anything!" Qianjin, actually... just..." She stomped her foot and said anxiously, "It's only worth half a tael of silver."

"Second sister, if you want to lie, you have to find a good excuse. The handkerchief embroidery and pattern are extraordinary. Are you insulting the eyesight of everyone present?" Jiang Hongzhi said indifferently. road.

As soon as the words fell, the guests present were a little irritable, and they couldn't bear to listen, and they all snorted coldly, expressing their dissatisfaction.

Jiang Yuehe was speechless, pointed at Jiang Hongzhi's nose, and said angrily, "You... this handkerchief is clearly yours..."

"Yuehe, you can't stop talking!" Jiang Yun stopped Jiang Yuehe in time, pulled her to kneel down and kowtowed to the old lady, and Mrs. Chen also came out, saying in panic: "Mother, their gift is a daughter-in-law. If you bought it on your own initiative, it's none of their business, the daughter-in-law will return the handkerchief untouched, please calm down."

"Take it down, take it down," the old lady waved her hand impatiently, "don't let it get in the way!"

"Yes. My daughter-in-law is leaving." Mrs. Chen immediately took the handkerchief and retreated with her son and daughter, not forgetting to shoot Jiang Hongzhi a poisonous look.

Jiang Hongzhi turned a blind eye, and after Jiang Jiande used an official tone to tell everyone present not to spread the matter, he quietly presented his congratulatory gift: "Grandmother, grandson has no money, and can't afford expensive gifts. Only With all my heart, I hope grandma will not dislike it."

The old lady took it over and saw that it was a picture of "Dashou" composed of hundreds of small "Shou" characters. Perhaps it was because Jiang Hongzhi was just learning to write. It will make people pick the wrong one.

Jiang Hong had already practiced beautiful handwriting in his previous life, but he deliberately wrote with his left hand for fear of being suspected.

The old lady hadn't let go of her sulking just now, and she had no intention of praising her, so she greeted meaningfully, and then said nothing.Afterwards, the rest of the children sent congratulatory gifts one after another, but they were not as amazing as that handkerchief.

The old lady was not in a good mood, she waved her hand after receiving the gifts, and asked people to serve the food and set up a banquet quickly, so as not to look at these gifts again and think of the good things that they couldn't get.

Before the dishes are served, there is a period of time for the guests to move freely, walk around and enjoy the scenery, and come back when almost all the dishes are served.

Mrs. Chen gave the two children a wink, quietly led them away from the banquet, and returned to Mrs. Chen's room.

Seeing that there was no one coming from outside, Mrs. Chen closed the door, slapped Jiang Yuehe's head and cursed a round: "How is your head so long! Didn't you see the situation at that time, it was still big? Have the guts to go up and talk, don’t you have a self-sufficient face! Dare to be punished by the family law, you didn’t beat your brain to normal, and beat you even more stupid!”

"Mother," Jiang Yuehe said with tears in her eyes, grabbing the handkerchief aggrievedly, "I don't want my grandma to accept the handkerchief and be happy. Besides, my boy is right, the handkerchief is only worth half a tael."

"Joke, if you say this, no one will believe it except the three of us!" Mrs. Chen poked her forehead fiercely again, "You can't have a longer memory. According to me, this handkerchief must be Jiang Hongzhi's intention. Stay there and do us a favor! It's all your fault, it's not good to see anything but that handkerchief!"

"Mother, that handkerchief is yours..."

"What about me!" Chen blocked Jiang Yuehe's words, and said angrily.

Jiang Yuehe gritted her teeth resentfully and bowed her head, not daring to say another word.

It turned out that after Jiang Hongzhi experienced the theft, he felt that he was too eye-catching, and he should keep a low profile so as not to be caught in the wrong place. He remembered the custom-made handkerchief. If you can't explain where this miraculous painter came from, you will probably be made a fuss about.So he sneaked out of the house while there was no one there, claiming that he didn't want the handkerchief anymore. The shopkeeper felt it was a pity, but seeing the unique pattern, he bought his pattern and sold the handkerchief at another price.Jiang Hongzhi took the money from selling patterns to buy medicine for the Chu family, but he didn't know that as soon as he left, the three of the Chen family entered Zhiyunfang.Because the old lady's birthday banquet was approaching, the old lady graciously released Jiang Yun and Jiang Yuehe. As soon as they were happy, they went to the street to buy gifts.

As soon as she entered Zhiyunfang, Jiang Yuehe took a fancy to the handkerchief that the owner hadn't had time to put back. Mrs. Chen came over to have a look and ordered to buy it.Knowing their relationship with Jiang Hongzhi, the shop owner thought it was Jiang Hongzhi who regretted and wanted to buy back the handkerchief. He didn't dare to ask for a high price, so he sold it to them at the originally agreed price.They wondered why the price was so cheap, and they found out that Jiang Hongzhi made it after asking.They were both excited and jealous, but they couldn't find out the origin of the pattern, and they couldn't even try to harm Jiang Hongzhi.And the shopkeeper will not help them for their own benefit.

They just swallowed a mouthful of flies that Jiang Hongzhi stuffed at the banquet, holding back a bad breath like this, and they still couldn't tell the pain.

Otherwise, what can they say, that they took advantage of Jiang Hongzhi for this handkerchief, and that it was actually Jiang Hongzhi who made the handkerchief?

Not to mention that it is embarrassing for a wealthy family to pick up cheap, even if it is Jiang Hongzhi who ordered the handkerchief, how can they explain that Jiang Hongzhi has exquisite patterns without evidence?Even if they find someone else's painter's pattern and put it in Jiang Hongzhi's room to blame, but everyone's painting style is different, as long as anyone with a discerning eye sees it, they can recognize it. When someone finds out, they will not suffer?

Jiang Hongzhi took advantage of them to embarrass them at the banquet.They want to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and they think too beautifully.

"Mother, are we just going to let that little bastard like Jiang Hongzhi have his way!" Jiang Yuehe said through gritted teeth.

"Otherwise what can happen!" Chen said angrily, "You two haven't suffered enough. If you can't see it, you should think of a brilliant way!"

"Mother." Jiang Yun, who had been silent all this time, interjected suddenly, "I remember that some time ago, the eldest lady mentioned that today she would invite a troupe to perform for the old lady to celebrate her birthday. Why don't we take this opportunity to give the little bitch Planting a lesson, and stabbing Da Furen again?"

"You mean..." Chen asked doubtfully.

"People in this troupe perform martial arts, and they will inevitably be a little careless when they use knives and guns. Didn't they throw the knives and guns?" Jiang Yun sneered, "As long as we buy a few of them and let them bite to death, the lady ordered them to do it." Yes, it will be done.”

Chen's eyes lit up, and he said suspiciously: "But will they be bought by us?"

"Mom, you don't know about this. The child passed by that day and heard that the eldest lady yelled at the team leaders. For a while, they disliked the shabby and smelly clothes they wore, and for a while they instructed them to throw guns and treat themselves as if they were theirs." It’s like a master. Afterwards, many people in that team held grudges against Da Furen, but the leader was kind and didn’t say anything. As long as we buy a few people who hate Da Furen, we are not afraid that they will not be willing to do it.”

Mrs. Chen smiled, covered her lips with a handkerchief, and said, "You are the only one who is smart. Well, let's do it this way."

Oh oh oh, this mother and son are about to start a show.Coincidentally, I found a way to protect myself and return to Jiang Hongzhi's side smoothly.

Hua Cheng transferred the system bug to the eldest lady, and looked at the eldest lady who left the scene with interest.
