There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 439

[Chapter 439, Assassination]

Yan Zhigao and Yan Wenxiu and leave behind the eunuch Xuanzhi, while others return to Songheyuan surrounded by Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li.

After entering the house, Mrs. Yan’s tense mood finally relaxed. Although this was the second time their family had received the imperial edict, she was still nervous as a country old lady.

“Boss daughter-in-law, hurry up, give me the order, I didn’t look at it carefully just now.”

Mrs. Li quickly took the order from Ping Tong, and handed it to the old lady herself.

Mrs. Yan carefully touched the order clothes, her face and eyes were full of smiles: “I never thought that the old lady would be given the order. Well, that’s great!”

Madam Li was also full of joy, and said: “Daughter-in-law didn’t expect that either.”

Over the years, due to her background as a businessman, she has always lacked confidence in her heart. Even though her husband is now the head of a family, every time she attends various banquets, she will more or less suffer from idleness and frustration. Roll eyes.

Now that it’s all right, the emperor personally appointed her as the fourth-rank imperial wife, she can finally hold her head high and not care about her status anymore.

Seeing her grandmother and mother so happy, Dao Hua’s feeling of loss disappeared completely, and she said with a smile: “Grandmother, mother, this imperial uniform is so beautiful, please put it on and show us.”

Sun smiled . Then he continued: “Yes, we, we haven’t seen Mrs. Gaoming yet, mother and sister-in-law, hurry up and put it on so that we can learn more.” Although there was a smile on his face, there was a sour taste in his tone that couldn’t be concealed. .

The old lady Yan looked at Mrs. Li with a moved face, “How about we put it on and have a look?”

Mrs. Li smiled and said, “I listen to mother.”

Old lady Yan immediately smiled and said: “Then put it on, let’s Let’s go to the back room.”

After a while, the two got dressed and came out.

As soon as everyone saw it, they immediately surrounded it, and said good and happy things without money.

Dao Hua smiled and stood watching from the sidelines, suddenly felt that this was pretty good. Although her credit did not fall to her, her grandmother and mother became the imperial wives, and they would no longer be looked down upon when they came into contact with other officials and family members.

Mrs. Yan wandered around the room in her official clothes, and after being congratulated by her children and grandchildren, she looked towards the door from time to time: “Why haven’t Zhigao and Wenxiu come back? After they have seen it, they can take it off and store it. Mrs.

Li laughed and said, “The servant girl came to report just now, saying that an official came to congratulate her, and she probably won’t come back until a while later.”

Mrs. Yan looked at the obligatory uniform on her body, showing hesitation: “What should I do, take it off first. Will you wear it for them when they come back?” Daohua

smiled and took the old lady’s arm: “Grandmother, you don’t think it’s troublesome, just keep wearing it.”

Old lady Yan touched her clothes cherishingly: “If What should I do if it gets dirty or damaged ?”

Daohua laughed and said, “It’s so easy to get dirty and damaged, by the way, Lady Fang came in just now and said that the maids and wives at home wanted to visit the two imperial wives. Do you allow me?”

Mrs. Yan listened, and looked at Mrs. Li: “See you then?”

Mrs. Li nodded with a smile: “Mother.” Mrs.

Yan immediately smiled and looked at Sun Mama, Sun Mama got it He signaled, and walked out the door with a smile. Soon, all the maids and mothers-in-law in the mansion came over, and the whole yard was full of kneels.

Hearing everyone’s congratulations, the smile on the old lady’s face never stopped.

Daohua leaned close to the old lady’s ear, and said with a low laugh, “Grandmother, don’t you want to reward me for being so happy today?”

Upon hearing this, the old lady Yan immediately said proudly, “Everyone has extra hair this month. It’s a monthly case. ”

Hearing this, the servant girl and mother-in-law were so happy that they thanked each other.

Mrs. Li watched from the side, and glanced at her daughter with a smile.

Yan Zhigao and Yan Wenxiu didn’t come back from the front yard until the maids and mother-in-law retreated.

Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Li went to the back room to change after seeing the obituary.

After she came out, the old lady Yan couldn’t help but asked: “Okay, why did the emperor think of ordering me and the eldest daughter-in-law?”

Yan Zhiyuan smiled and said: “Mother, do you still need to ask, it must be the eldest brother’s political achievements. Outstanding.”

Yan Zhigao smiled and did not refute, but just glanced at the eldest daughter who was snuggling beside the old lady.

Just now the Xuanzhi eunuch revealed that this time, the emperor rewarded two families in total, one is their family and the other is the Jiang family.

Jiang Shenzheng’s daughter was named the head of the county.

His intuition from years of being in power told him that his mother and wife were granted imperial orders not because of his outstanding political achievements, but probably because of the gold mine.

Thinking of how the eldest daughter, Wen Tao, and Wen Kai searched for the gold mine not long ago, and the eldest daughter’s reaction when she learned that it was the Jiang family who found the gold mine, she had a vague guess in her heart.

The imperial orders of the mother and wife may be the emperor’s compensation for their family.

Yan Zhigao glanced again at the eldest daughter who was sitting next to his old mother, talking and laughing at Yanyan, feeling quite emotional in his heart.

He failed to invite the imperial order for his mother and wife, but the eldest daughter did.

Compared with the joy of the Yan family, the atmosphere of Jiang Shenzheng’s family in the provincial government is not so enthusiastic.

Jiang Zhengyuan didn’t have much joy on his face holding the imperial decree: “I thought that because of the credit for finding the gold mine, the emperor would give me the right to mine the gold mine, but I didn’t expect that a county lord would send us away.”

The Jiang family has two queens, and even if the daughter of the Jiang family does not have the status of the county head, she is a first-class noble in the whole of Daxia.

Mrs. Jiang ignored the outside affairs, and her daughter became the county head, she was very happy: “In the past, Wanyu, who was the only big house in our family, was the county head, but now, our Wanying is also the county head, no one can compare Who’s wrong?”

Hearing this, Jiang Zhengyuan shook his head, the woman’s hair is long but short-sighted, and she only cares about the one-third of an acre of land in the backyard. “I don’t know who the emperor will send to take charge of the gold mine?”

Mrs. Jiang: “Do you still need to ask? It must be the emperor’s confidant.”

On the eighth day of November, the Yan family received a letter from the Yang family.

“What did you say, your sister is coming back?”

Mrs. Yan looked at Yan Zhigao excitedly.

Yan Zhigao smiled and nodded: “Yes, my brother-in-law said, this year’s your birthday, my sister will bring two children to celebrate your birthday in person, now counting the days, I’m afraid it’s already on the way.”

Mrs. Yan Her eyes turned red immediately, she couldn’t remember how many years she hadn’t seen her daughter.

Daohua hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her and said, “Grandma, you should be happy that my aunt is coming back. Why are you crying?”

Mrs. Yan wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: “I just miss your aunt.” Looking at Daohua, “You, I haven’t seen your cousin or cousin yet, but this time I can finally see you.”

Daohua smiled and said, “I’ve wanted to see my aunt and cousin for a long time.”

Yan Zhigao The smile on his face faded, he knew that the reason why the Yang family invited his sister to celebrate her birthday was because they saw that the Yan family was getting better and better and profitable, and he was very displeased with the Yang family’s pursuit.

However, seeing my mother so happy, she didn’t express her inner thoughts.

Everyone was talking and laughing when Butler Sun came over in a hurry.

Yan Zhigao saw him, and immediately walked out, standing under the eaves frowning, listening to Butler Sun’s report.

Daohua was going back to the yard to get something, when she stepped out the door, she happened to listen to something.

“Mrs. Jiang was assassinated when she went out

to offer incense.” Yan Zhigao saw the eldest daughter look over and waved at her.

Steward Sun glanced at the eldest girl who was approaching, and then said: “I heard that Mrs. Jiang was stabbed in the arm and bled a lot. Miss Jiang’s old illness relapsed because of being overly frightened. A dozen of the servants of the Jiang family died.”

Hearing this, Daohua’s face turned pale, and her heart couldn’t stop beating wildly.

After Steward Sun finished speaking, Yan Zhigao waved him away, and then said to Daohua, “You are not allowed to mention the matter of finding gold mines again.”

Daohua nodded repeatedly.
