On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Jiang family came to Lu Mansion to pay New Year greetings.
Fortunately, the New Year's money was prepared in advance, otherwise it would have been a joke.
Jiang Wenmao and his wife brought Jiang Qing and Jiang Hua together. The two children kowtowed to Lu Yunhong and Wang Xiu, and then went to the backyard to play.
Jiang Wenmao said to Lu Yunhong: "I heard that the eldest princess just entered the palace today."
Lu Yunhong nodded and said: "The Emperor has a new year. The eldest princess wants to let the Emperor take charge of her own affairs. It's a good time to go today."
Jiang Wenmao's anxious heart dropped, and he said happily: "That's good, I thought they had a quarrel."
Lu Yunhong said: "It doesn't matter even if we quarrel. The emperor is kind and blesses the world. The eldest princess has a big heart and always puts the overall situation first. Even if the siblings quarrel, they will not have any bad feelings."
Jiang Wenmao smiled sarcastically. He knew the secret, so he was worried.
If one day the emperor no longer cares about the eldest princess, how can he still care about the Jiang family? This is why he and his wife were in a hurry to come to the Lu family so early in the morning.
After all, with the relationship between his son and Lu Yunhong, no one else dares to look down on the Jiang family.
In the backyard, after Jiang Qing and Jiang Hua greeted Lu Shouchang and his wife, they did not avoid suspicion and went directly to Pei Shan.
They brought two ancient books this time, but they had some defects and wanted to show them to Pei Shan. If they could be repaired, it would be best. If not, they would give them to Pei Shan so that they would not disappoint.
It was the first time that Xia Yan saw a girl come to see Pei Shan. Although she brought a boy with her, she heard that she was Lu Yunhong's disciple and Pei Shan's junior brother. For a moment, it was like seeing Pei Shan's biological brother, and he smiled and invited them in.
Go to the house.
Xia Yan asked the boy to boil water and make tea, while he himself went to the small kitchen to bring some snacks to entertain the guests.
At first, he was worried that Pei Shan would be rude if he didn't handle this well.
Who would have expected that when he came back, he would see Jiang Qing pouring tea, and Jiang Hua leaning against Pei Shan reading ancient books. The sun was shining in the room, and the three of them were like the early morning rain and dew, crystal clear and shining next to each other.
Xia Yan went back with the snacks. The mother-in-law who was busy in the kitchen smiled and said, "Didn't you rush to see your granddaughter-in-law? Why are you back again?"
Xia Yan said: "That is the daughter of the Jiang family, from a wealthy family. Stop talking about it."
The cook knew how powerful he was, so she quickly stopped talking, and added: "The young master is now in the fourth grade. Who in the capital doesn't say that he is a young genius? He is still the prince's teacher, but I don't know whose girl Mr. Lu likes?"
Xia Yan said with a smile: "Lord Lu will not care about him. He just depends on his temperament. This is his nature. If he changes to another family, they will provide for him like this, just like a legitimate boy."
Xia Yan was sighing with the cook, and he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Ever since the last accident, he had been thinking about his grandson's marriage, hoping to see with his own eyes the day when Pei Shan got married.
I just don’t know if this day will come sooner?
After a while, Pei Shan sent Jiang Qing and Jiang Hua out and prepared to go to the front hall with them. He also paid his respects to Jiang Wenmao and his wife.
Jiang Qing saw Pei Shan's grandfather sitting at the entrance of the courtyard, and stepped forward to salute.
Xia Yan hurriedly said: "It's not appropriate, please come quickly, Miss."
Jiang Hua said: "Senior brother's grandfather is my grandfather, and he is also my sister's grandfather, so it's natural for him to be so."
After saying that, he also bowed respectfully.
Xia Yan's eyes were slightly red, and he supported him and said, "What a polite boy. From now on, you brothers will follow Mr. Lu and learn from him."
Pei Shandao: "Junior brother is talented and smart, and he will surely excel in the future. As long as he works hard now, he will have a bright future in the future."
Jiang Hua said: "I didn't have much confidence at first. If my senior brother says this, then I will take it seriously. From now on, if I am not diligent, I still hope that my senior brother will supervise me."
Pei Shan said: "Don't worry, I will prepare the commandments in advance and submit them to Master."
Jiang Hua was dumbfounded: "..."
Jiang Qing couldn't help laughing, pinched her brother's cheek, and teased: "Don't you want to supervise me? Are you afraid now?"
Jiang Hua suddenly blushed and said in shock: "I don't know how."
Jiang Qing smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't. Otherwise, if you cry and copy your homework at the same time, maybe a three-year-old child won't be so miserable?"
As soon as Jiang Hua thought of that scene, he knew that his sister was deliberately teasing him, and his resentful eyes fell on Jiang Qing.
Jiang Qing turned a blind eye, which made Jiang Hua almost jump.
When Pei Shan saw this, he couldn't help but laugh. He just helped Jiang Hua out and said, "You can't be like that. Your sister is just joking."
Jiang Hua looked at Jiang Qing proudly as if someone was supporting him.
Jiang Qing was too lazy to pay attention to him, so she turned to Pei Shan and said, "He is used to rubbing his nose and face. If you are not free at ordinary times, just ignore him if you can."
Pei Shan said: "How could it be? If the junior brother is not good, the master will not accept him as a student. I believe in the master's vision."
"Besides, you are also a polished person. Jiang Hua is your biological brother, so how can you be so bad?"
Jiang Hua rushed to say: "That's right!"
Jiang Qing was stunned and too lazy to pay attention to him. But she didn't say anything anymore, because her chest was beating hard, banging, banging, like the dull sky was constantly thundering, revealing an uncontrollable panic, and unconsciously
For a while, I didn’t even know my ears were red.
But they left, and Xia Yan kept looking at their backs, wanting to protect them and follow them forward.
In this way, he saw Jiang Qing's shy expression in his eyes, raised his eyebrows unconsciously, and the smile at the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper, and he couldn't stop it.
