"Well, Sister Zijuan is here!"

Xiang Ling was having a good time eating. Perhaps she was a little drunk from Jia Qiang's rice wine, so she was much more active.

Seeing Zicuckoo arriving, she waved to welcome her.

Jia Qiang, who was chatting with Li Jing about Jianghu affairs, looked sideways when she heard the sound, and saw a young girl wearing a white cotton skirt with a lavender bamboo leaf pattern and an autumn-colored soft gauze jacket walking towards her.

He smiled brightly and said: "Second Master Xiaoqiang."

Jia Qiang stood up after hearing this, let the little horse out, gestured with her chin, and said: "It's better to come early than to come wisely. The last handful of meat will be eaten. If you come later, Xiangling will eat it all."

Xiang Ling immediately blushed and lowered her head to blame herself.

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "I didn't say you can eat it. It's just that if you eat too much of this kind of fire food, you will easily get angry and burn your stomach when you sleep at night."

Xiangling smiled charmingly and said, "I'm not afraid."

Jia Qiang shook her head and said, "Then it's up to you, whether you eat it or invite Zijuan to eat it."

Only then did Xiangling realize what she was doing, and quickly took Zijuan's hand, asked her to sit down, and invited her to eat.

But Zijuan shook her head and said: "No need..." After a pause, she said with some embarrassment: "It smells weird upstairs. Our girl has had a bad appetite these past two days and can't eat. I don't know..."

After hearing this, Xiang Ling looked at Jia Qiang who was about to leave with Li Jing.

Jia Qiang smiled and said: "It's just right. These ten or so skewers are not very spicy. Let's give them to Aunt Lin to try. But don't use too much, as it won't be easy to temper."

Hearing this, Zijuan hurriedly smiled and said, "Young lady will definitely know the filial piety of Mr. Xiaoqiang."

"..."

Jia Qiang blinked, and her eyes were a little aggressive on Zijuan's face. When she saw her blushing, her ears red, and her heart full of embarrassment, she left with a smile.

Zijuan was dissatisfied and wanted to get rid of these meat skewers, but thinking of Daiyu, she could only bear the humiliation and silently left upstairs with the meat skewers.

When I returned to the suite upstairs, I was stopped by two nuns at the door and asked, "What is this?"

Zijuan smiled and said, "It's... the barbecue that Second Master Xiaoqiang gave to the girl as a filial piety."

One of them, Aunt Li, shook her head repeatedly and said: "How could someone as delicate as a girl eat such rough and fishy food? Throw it away quickly."

Hearing this, Zicuckoo took a deep breath and lowered her voice: "Mother Li, stop talking about this. Don't you know what kind of temper the little Qiang Er Ye is outside? The old lady in Rongqing Hall is trying to coax her.

Please advise, what can I do if the eldest master and the old master are so angry? If the second master Lian dares to talk back to the eldest master on weekdays, he will be beaten to death, but the second master Xiaoqiang is fine. He was winding up the chain at the dock before.

The second master refused to let him board the ship, but in the blink of an eye, the Supreme Emperor gave him a cousin from the palace... We don't care what the gift was, but for such a person, do you dare to throw away his things? Believe it or not, we threw it away.

, he can throw us into the river with his hind legs."

Grandma Li turned pale when she heard this, but she twisted her neck and said, "Am I afraid of him? He dares to harm the girl. Even if the lawsuit goes to the old lady, I won't be afraid!"

Even so, the tone of voice was very low and weak.

On the side, Grandma Sun smoothed things over and said, "That's all, why bother with such a person? Just let the girl give the sister a small bite, just a little taste."

Zicuckoo smiled and said: "The girl probably won't even take a bite. You still don't know about her?"

…

"Girl, why don't you... stop eating?"

In the inner room, Zijuan watched Daiyu sitting at the table, chewing two skewers of barbecued meat slowly, and then advised her with some worry.

When Daiyu heard this, she glanced at her black eyes as vivid as the mist in a winter spring, hesitated for a moment, and felt a little regretful that she didn't eat these three skewers...

After wiping the corners of her mouth, she also asked curiously: "Why do I like to eat this?"

Zijuan said angrily: "Amitabha! As long as the girl is willing to eat, she can do whatever she wants... Let's have another bowl of porridge, just eat this. I'm afraid it won't be able to subdue it, and it will hurt the stomach and it will not be beautiful."

Daiyu nodded slightly and smiled.

Zijuan first asked Xueyan to ask for porridge, then turned around and asked curiously: "What are you laughing at, girl?"

Daiyu said: "The Hongfu girl's life experience is similar to mine, but she is actually three points more miserable than me. I still have my grandmother's family to rely on, but she... However, she is not always like me, and she pretends to be a fake.

Men support a family business. I have always been dissatisfied with others, but I didn’t expect that there is someone like her. It’s strange. Every time I want to cry, I think of her, and then I can’t cry anymore.”

Zijuan said with relief: "It's not like she doesn't rely on others. She's not lying to the second master Xiaoqiang now... Miss, tell me, the second master Xiaoqiang seems to be born better, and there's no difference between him and me. So, then

How could Miss Li, a heroine like Hongfu Nu, defeat him?"

Daiyu was startled when she heard this, and reminded: "It's not like you haven't heard about Brother Qiang, why are you still saying this?"

Zijuan hesitated: "Nothing..."

Daiyu is such a smart and smart person. As soon as he saw her like this, he knew that there must be something inside. She lowered her face and said, "Is he giving you a hard time?"

Zijuan hurriedly said: "No..."

Daiyu's face turned pale with anger and said: "Did you ask him for the barbecue, didn't he ask Xiangling to deliver it?"

Zijuan's eyes flickered from side to side, but she was about to get angry when she saw Daiyu, so she hurriedly explained: "Girl, please don't be upset. It's really what he said to give to the girl. It's just that when I said thank you for his filial piety to the girl, he actually said

He didn't answer, just smiled, and I thought he was disrespectful. If the girl doesn't like it, I will return the barbecue to him and give him the money for the two skewers he eats."

Hearing this, Daiyu let out a breath and said depressedly: "What am I talking about... You are also confused, haven't you heard about him in Rongqing Hall? Besides, earlier in Lixiangyuan, he and Bao Yatou's brother

While we were eating outside the window and we were in the house, he said that we were all just distant relatives of his who were married to the fifth class. Calling us aunt is just a token of affection. In terms of blood relatives, we have long been out of reach."

Zijuan was startled when he heard this and said: "Isn't this nonsense? He is the great-great-great-grandson of the eldest son Ning Guo, how come he is a distant relative of Rong Guo?"

Daiyu smiled and said: "Really, we are just distant relatives... So don't make any more jokes. He treats the old lady like that. Do you still expect him to respect me?"

Zijuan smiled bitterly and said: "I never thought there would be such a bold person in the world. It's really..."

Daiyu suppressed her smile and said softly: "You don't understand. His parents died early, and he was left alone to live under the fence in Dongfu. He only escaped after suffering great grievances. If he hadn't left,

Dayun, I don't know whether he is dead or alive at the moment. What do you want him to do in such a situation? If he is any weaker, he may not be able to survive as a human being."

In fact, Daiyu was not only thinking about Jia Qiang, but also herself.

Many people in Jia's family say that she talks like a knife, but they don't know how she can live with dignity if she doesn't become stronger...

Those mothers-in-law, daughters-in-law and girls in wealthy families, even the powerful ones like Feng Yatou, are hiding behind their backs and making up gossip, let alone her?

It's a pity that she is a girl. Otherwise, she might be like Jia Qiang, standing up for her family and being strong and unyielding...

…

In the cabin on the first floor, when Jia Qiang and Li Jing finished watching Li Jing's father Li Fu and returned to the bedroom to rest, they saw a cute and cute head exposed under the quilt on the bed, looking left and right.

He took a look, then suddenly woke up, got out of the quilt, and said obediently: "I'll bring you water to wash your feet."

Li Jing stepped forward, held her down, and said with a smile: "Go to sleep well, we washed in the kitchen."

Xiangling said "Oh" and got into the quilt again, blinking at the two of them.

Li Jing smiled when she saw it, and turned back to look at Jia Qiang. Jia Qiang said warmly: "Let's squeeze in and have a rest together. No one on the left or right has eaten, so I have to prepare a table seriously and go to the Yamen to change my name. Please

Let’s talk after the sedan is carried home.”

Li Jing's eyes sparkled when she heard this. She first helped Jia Qiang take off her outer clothes, and then helped Jia Qiang get on the bed. She took out a copper coin and flicked it, causing the oil lamp on the table to go out instantly.

Taking advantage of the darkness, she took off her outer clothes and just lay down on the bed, then she heard a burst of applause. When someone turned around to look, it was Xiangling who gave her a thumbs up in admiration.

elder brother……

Li Jing and Jia Qiang looked at each other and smiled, then closed their eyes.
