"Jiang Er?" Old Mrs. Ji didn't care much about the outside world, so she didn't remember who Jiang Er was.
"It's my brother, Lei'er and others' second uncle." Jiang had already stretched his neck and listened, and he replied quickly at this time.
Like Mr. Gu, Jiang, they are not from Qingyuan, and their family is both promising. The two of them are children's marriages set by their parents in their early years. Later, the Gu family fell into ruin, and it was still the ones that Mr. Ji helped him get married.
When Mr. Gu came to rely on his sister and brother-in-law, Jiang also brought her brothers with him. In the past two years, he was arranged to work as a manager in the Ji family's village.
The second uncle of Jiang is in charge of the sacrifice village where the Ji family guards the blessed land on Qingxi Mountain.
"Oh," Old Mrs. Ji heard Jiang Shi say that, then she remembered who Jiang Er was. "He was dismissed from his job, and I...
As Old Mrs. Ji said, she looked at Master Ji Er.
"Since it's Lei'er's uncle, he is no better than others, at least for the sake of relatives." Old Mrs. Ji pleaded for Jiang Er without asking any questions.
However, Master Ji Er was prepared long ago.
"Although the sacrificial village is small, the responsibility is heavy. Some time ago, I beat the big manager to deal with it. When I came back, I said that the handling was done, so I didn't ask. My uncle just came back and rested for a few days first. It would be not too late to talk about the future." Master Ji Er said.
This is completely avoiding the important things, neither admitting anything nor promising anything.
Mr. Ji Er has served as a few officials, which is quite experienced.
Old Mrs. Ji was confused when she heard it. But what she was most concerned about was Mr. Gu. Although Jiang Er was separated by a layer, it was related to Mr. Gu's face, not to mention Mr. Gu personally mentioned it to her.
Old Mrs. Ji felt that this matter was easy to deal with, and it would not make the son embarrassed, but also satisfy the brothers.
The Ji family has many villages and shops, so it is too easy to arrange a river.
"Since that's the case, let him follow you, and it's the same wherever you do things, and you have multiple helpers around you. "≤," said Mrs. Ji. In Mrs. Ji's opinion, this is a way to have the best of both worlds.
Such a result was not what Jiang family wanted. Her brother Jiang Er told her that he wanted to continue to be the manager of the Buddhist temple.
The errands in the rituals of the rituals are the most leisurely, but Yueyin is not low at all. In addition, there is another kind of oil and water, and Jiang Er is reluctant to leave this errand.
Jiang was about to speak, but Uncle Gu glared back at first glance.
"I just mentioned it casually. If Jiang Er makes a mistake, he will beat him and punish him if he should. He will ruin his affairs for his elder sister's family because of him." Uncle Gu said with a smile.
Old Mrs. Ji nodded, feeling that she did not love her brother in vain. She is indeed thinking about her and the Ji family everywhere.
"Let him follow me to do a stewardship first." Uncle Gu said.
Although you can't be a manager in the sacrificial village, it is a good thing to do a manager in the other place first.
Old Mrs. Ji nodded.
Master Ji Er can only stop talking.
Uncle Gu accompanied Mrs. Ji and talked about Bo Wang again, which made Mrs. Ji cry and laugh.
"...Old lady, the banquet has been prepared in the kitchen, and it is not too late. Uncle, Uncle and two cousins have come back from afar..." Mrs. Ji Er stood up and said to Mrs. Ji.
Old Mrs. Ji looked up and saw that it was getting late, so she nodded.
"You see when I say this, I forgot the time. You should be hungry all the way back."
The seats are set up in the hall of Mrs. Ji’s main room.
Mrs. Ji Er asked someone to carry four flowers and rich embroidered screens to put them in the hall. She arranged two tables of tables, intending to attend the table separately. Old Mrs. Ji glanced at the screen and said nothing about it.
"Where is Lei'er, why haven't you come yet? Come and call Lei'er." Old Mrs. Ji saw that Gu Lei'er had not arrived yet, so she asked not to upload the dishes. She said she had to wait for Gu Lei'er to come and then the meal was started after everyone was full.
"We will accompany the old lady to the table first, so there is no need to wait for him." Gu Lao Lao said, "There are all his elders here, and there is no reason to let the elders wait for him."
Old Mrs. Ji insisted on not accepting it.
"That child Lei'er is so honest. It's just that someone has arranged for the matter in the village to see. He has a tender skin and is carefully sunburned."
Old Mrs. Ji asked Master Ji Er to ask someone to find Gu Lei'er.
Left Mrs. Ji and uncle Gu, Jiang continued to talk in the house, and Master Ji Er and Master Ji San came out on excuses. Mrs. Ji Er took someone to the kitchen and watched the table prepare.
Ji Xiaotang looked around and saw Ji Xiaoyun and Gu Xiaer talking in a low voice like a dense person. Gu Xueer was next to Gu Xiaer, and occasionally he could make a few sentences.
Ji Xiaoyun looked up and saw Ji Xiaotang sitting alone, and then smiled proudly at Ji Xiaotang.
Ji Xiaotang stood up.
Gu Xia'er is a thoughtful person. After waiting for a while, Gu Xia'er will definitely pull her over and talk. But Ji Xiaotang doesn't want to join them.
Ji Xiaotang only said that he would help Mrs. Ji Er, so he came out of the house.
"Xiaotang, come and sit here." Master Ji San and Master Ji Er sat in the hall, and then called Ji Xiaotang to sit on the chair beside him.
"After a while, Mr. Gu will definitely follow you." Ji Xiaotang said suddenly.
"Yes." Master Ji Er and Master Ji San nodded, and they both thought of this just now.
"Dad was vague just now, but my grandmother said that it was the same wherever she was doing business. The uncle must have listened to his grandmother's words..."
After a while, Gu Lei'er brought Jiang Er with him. Uncle Gu would definitely make the decision to let Jiang Er follow him to do business.
If it weren't for this idea, Gu Lei'er would be a person who was afraid of heavy things and could not bear any hardship. How could he return to Qingyuan and follow Jiang Er to the farmland?
This is clearly a cover, so that Jiang Er can have a name to appear in front of Mrs. Ji with Gu Lei'er.
Jiang Er was in charge of the sacrificial village, but asked Jiang Qingshan to bury the bones of the Jiang family into the Ji family's ancestral tomb. Even if Jiang Er was not bribed by Jiang Qingshan, it would be a big mistake to neglect his duties.
Compared to neglecting his duties, Jiang Er is more likely to be bribed.
It is impossible for the sacrificial village to let Jiang Er take charge of it anymore.
On the day of the incident, Ji Xiaotang told Master Ji Er that everyone in the sacrificial village, except for the cousin Aniu, who had the copper coins, had all changed.
Both the managers in the sacrificial village were dismissed from their responsibilities. One of them was Jiang Er.
If Jiang Erjizhuang's errand work as a manager, it would be impossible for him to go elsewhere to do managerial work.
The nature of the matter in the Buddhist temple is serious. If the reward and punishment cannot be clearly distinguished, how can we impose orders in the future? Who else is willing to work for the Ji family loyally?
"It's time for grandmother to know about the matter in the sacrificial village." Ji Xiaotang said, "My uncle and his family are back, and grandmother will not know what they will hear in the future. Instead of letting grandmother be deceived by others, it's better to tell grandmother that we know first, so as not to be sad afterwards."
I hide some things from Mrs. Ji, just to avoid trouble and make Mrs. Ji worry-free.
Uncle Gu is back, and Mrs. Ji is destined to be unable to save any more.
Uncle Gu and Jiang Qingshan have a very good personal relationship.
Jiang Er and Jiang Qingshan are connected to the clan.
"Okay, that's it." Master Ji San said.
"That's all." Master Ji Er thought about it and nodded.
Soon, someone came outside to report that Gu Lei'er was here.
As Ji Xiaotang expected, Gu Lei'er also brought Jiang Er with him.
Jiang Er is Gu Lei'er's uncle. The two of them stand together and they are somewhat similar.
Jiang Er has a short and fat figure, wearing a green Lu silk, wiping sweat while walking. Gu Lei'er's figure is similar to Jiang Er, and she is wearing a sunflower-colored Hang Silk Robe. Although Gu Lei'er is only sixteen or seventeen years old, her figure is already a little blessed. She stood there with her belly slightly forward.
When Gu Lei'er entered the house, she wanted to go directly to see Mrs. Ji, but when she saw Mr. Ji Er and Mr. Ji San sitting in the hall, she had to come forward to see her.
"Second cousin, third cousin."
Jiang Er put it behind Gu Lei'er and bowed accordingly.
"Lai'er, go and see the old lady." Master Ji Er said, "Your uncle waited for a while."
Gu Lei'er had to go into the house to pay homage to Mrs. Ji.
When Mrs. Ji saw Gu Lei'er, she was happy again. She called Gu Lei'er to her, first looked up and down, then rubbed Gu Lei'er's head, and said that Gu Lei'er had grown taller and stronger.
"It's all for my aunt's blessing." Gu Lei'er said.
Jiang, on the other side, was busy winking at Gu Lei'er.
"Auntie, my nephew has something to ask for my aunt." Gu Lei'er knelt down beside Old Mrs. Ji's leg.
"You child, just talk to me and get up and talk." Old Mrs. Ji looked at Gu Lei'er lovingly. This is the only son of Gu Lao Lao and Jiang. Uncle Gu is now middle-aged. Gu Lei'er can be regarded as the only seedling in the Gu family's vast land. Old Mrs. Ji's care for Gu Lei'er is beyond words.
"It's my uncle..." Gu Lei'er said, "I have been loyal to my aunt's family for many years. I've been drinking and missed a little.... I just rely on him for a few people in his family. He is my nephew's uncle. After getting a job, my nephew's family is shameless."
When Mrs. Ji heard that other things were not ashamed, she immediately became concerned about her.
"It's better if anyone is wrong. If you have any relatives, take care of him. He will do things for you more carefully than others." As Mrs. Ji spoke, she ordered the little girl, "Go and invite the second master."
"Grandma," Ji Xiaotang walked in from outside, "Grandma didn't know about the matter in the sacrificial village, but I heard from the big manager. I couldn't believe it, it was so scary!"
Old Mrs. Ji was a little timid. Hearing Ji Xiaotang said this, how could he not ask?
"What happened?"
"The big manager said that the manager in the Buddhist temple was hiding from us, buried people in our blessed land, and buried them next to my grandfather!" Ji Xiaotang walked under the kang and said to Old Mrs. Ji.
"What?" Old Mrs. Ji's hand trembled, and her face changed, "Xiaotang, what are you saying, please make it clear!"
