Jiang Qiao woke up to the tactful sound of insects.
She sat up and rubbed her eyes, her expression suddenly dull.
When something like that happened last night, she slept so dead?
"Sister Si" Jiang Qiao hurriedly looked around and found that Jiang Si was still asleep, greatly relieved. After thinking about it, she stretched out her hand and pushed Jiang Si, "Sister Si, wake up."
Jiang Si slowly opened her eyes, her eyes flowing: "Sanjie?"
"It's getting late to see the sky, get up."
Jiang Si got up, tidying up his clothes and said: "I fell asleep in a daze in the middle of the night, and woke up late."
Jiang Qiao was a little embarrassed when he heard that, "I slept to death somehow..."
"It's not surprising, some people can't fall asleep after being frightened, and some people are overdrawn and sleep more deeply."
Is that right?
Jiang Qiao always feels that she is not such a fat person with a heart and body. At this moment, thinking of what happened last night, there is still a shadow lingering in her heart: "Sister Si, are we really going to continue to live here?"
"No, let's go back today."
"Did you say last night--"
"One time and another time." Jiang Si approached Jiang Qiao and whispered in her ear, "I have found a way to deal with that beast. I don't need to stay in the Hou Mansion anymore."
Jiang Qiao's eyes lit up, and she wanted to say something. She swallowed the doorway and shook Jiang Qiao's hand. "That's good. We will meet Jiang Qian later. Farewell!"
Jiang Si immediately noticed the subtle change in Jiang Qiao's attitude towards Jiang Qian.
Although Jiang Qiao and Jiang Qian were not close in the past, they would not call them by name as they do now.
"Don't worry, leave this to me. If she dares to stop, I'll splash." Jiang Qiao squeezed Jiang's eyes like a wink.
Jiang Si smiled: "Okay."
The two sisters were whispering, and the door curtain embroidered with peony flowers was suddenly lifted. Two maidservants in Tsing Yi hurried in, carrying soft towels, basins and other things, leaning together: "Girls, atonement, the maids are late."
After a while, Jiang Si said lightly: "It doesn't matter, wait for us to freshen up."
It took a while to freshen up, and one of the maidservants said: "The two girls, please have breakfast with the maidservant and his wife."
Jiang Si and Jiang Qiao looked at each other, and joined the handmaid to Jiang Qian's.
The fifth girl Jiang Li and the sixth girl Jiang Pei had already arrived one step earlier.
Seeing the two coming in side by side, Jiang Pei said: "The two sisters came so late, I can't help but look for you."
After being slapped severely in the face by Jiang Si yesterday, Jiang Pei had a lot of restraint.
Jiang Qiao curled her lips and smiled: "The second sister arranged a place too comfortable for me to sleep."
Jiang Pei couldn't help but curl his lips.
The third sister is really a thick-skinned person, and she can say that she sleeps so openly.
Jiang Qian chuckled slightly: "I will feel at ease if my sisters live comfortably. It's rare for you to come here. This time you will definitely have to stay with your second sister for more time."
"Of course, the second sister goes back less on weekdays. We came just to accompany the second sister to relieve our boredom." Jiang Pei pleased.
Jiang Qian's eyes didn't sweep towards Jiang Pei, as if she was looking at Jiang inadvertently.
Jiang Qiao was about to open her mouth, but Jiang Si gently touched her hand.
Jiang Qiao pursed her lips, temporarily rested her intention.
"Second sister, should we ask Mrs. Hou today?"
Hearing what Jiang Si said, Jiang Qiao echoed: "Yes, just came yesterday. If we didn't show up this morning, Mrs. Hou should blame the girl in the Bofu's house for not understanding the rules."
Seeing that Jiang Si and Jiang Qiao said so, Jiang Qian smiled and said, "I am waiting for you to come and go together."
"Ah, aren't we too late?" Jiang Qiao frowned.
The fifth girl Jiang Li glanced at Jiang Qian, her expression a little disturbed.
"It's not too late, Madam Hou is lenient, and the rule of the Hou Mansion is that every room has breakfast before going there."
"That's good." Jiang Qiao looked relieved.
Jiang Qian glanced at the four of them and said with a smile: "Let's eat."
Soon the maids filed in to prepare breakfast.
Yinsihua rolls, shrimp porridge, xiaolongbao, glutinous whitebait, vinegar mixed fungus, etc. are all set on a table, each of which is small in size, better than exquisite.
The sisters had used breakfast in silence, and Jiang Qian took Jiang Si to Mrs. Changxinghou's.
At this time, Mrs. Changxing Hou had just used breakfast, and after hearing the report from the maid, she invited a few people in.
Jiang Qian respectfully greeted her: "My sisters just came yesterday, and didn't dare to disturb the mother-in-law's cleanliness. This morning my daughter-in-law came to ask Ann to bring them."
A gentle voice came: "It's good to say that it is casual, and you don't need to talk about these polite manners."
Jiang Pei couldn't help but look up secretly.
Mrs. Changxing Hou is a beautiful woman who is over 40 years old. At her age, many noble ladies will be blessed, but Mrs. Chang Xing Hou still has a pointed melon-seeded face. She looks like a young girl, and her demeanor is so soft that she feels sick and weak. .
Jiang Pei lowered his eyes, very envious.
Mrs. Changxing Hou had a good temper at first glance. There is such a mother-in-law and a husband like Changxing Hou Shizi, the second sister is really lucky.
Thinking of Jiang Qian’s disapproval of her, Jiang Pei’s jealous mood turned into jealousy again, and secretly said:
It’s just reincarnation. If she was born by her aunt, with the noble daughter of the uncle’s palace, her father was also a fourth-grade capital official. Don't marry better than Jiang Qian.
Mrs. Chang Xing Hou indeed seemed to be a very kind woman. She glanced at sister Jiang Si one by one, and smiled: "Sure enough, they are all flower girls. It makes people happy to look at them."
Next, Mrs. Changxing Hou whispered and asked questions about the names of the four sisters, how old they were, and so on. Finally, her eyes fell on Jiang Si: "I have long heard that Jiang Si is a rare beauty. Knowing the rumors is not enough to describe Miss Jiang Si in case."
Jiang Si smiled openly: "Mrs. Hou is ridiculously praised. Her appearance is bestowed by her parents and has nothing to do with her own efforts. The younger generation does not think it is worth mentioning."
Mrs. Changxing Hou was startled, and then laughed: "I didn't expect Miss Jiang Si to be so transparent at her young age. I really like it in my heart."
Jiang Qian raised her eyebrows and quickly said with a smile: "If the mother-in-law doesn't hate your sisters and disturb your cleanliness, let them stay with you for a few more days."
Mrs. Changxing Hou laughed: "Then dare to love, I wonder if your children are still used to living?"
"Second sister loves us the most. Madam, you are so kind. I feel more comfortable than living at home." Jiang Pei covered his mouth and smiled.
Jiang Li has never been out of the limelight, so he was just behaved and silent on this occasion.
Jiang Qiao suddenly said, "It is our blessing that Madam likes us, but I am afraid that the younger generation cannot live in your house."
As soon as he said this, the room suddenly became quiet.
Madam Changxinghou, who had focused most of her attention on Jiang Si, looked at Jiang Qiao in surprise, while Jiang Qian warned.
Jiang Qiao didn't seem to feel any pressure, and gently raised her sleeves.
