Chapter 6 The Night Before the Storm

Jiang Jin doesn't know about these bad things.

She walked slowly to her yard. The yard was very clean. Although it was winter and the vegetation was withered, the owner's love for it could be seen.

From a distance, you can still see the hostess standing guard in front of the concierge. The moonlight casts a gentle light on her face.

Jiang Jin pursed his lips into a smile and hurried to meet him.

"Why are you waiting outside?"

Jiang Lin pushed the hand stove into her hand and said, "Quickly come into the house."

Jiang Jin nodded and helped Jiang Lin enter the door. The heat that hit her face made her dizzy.

Glancing towards the reopened book on the desk, Jiang Jin just smiled.

"Uncle is back today."

Mrs. Jiang Lin put away her coat while listening to Jiang Jin talk about Mugintang.

When she heard about Shu Xiu, she paused for a moment, and then said kindly, "Brother Jin did the right thing, we shouldn't bother your uncle anymore."

The two of them chatted and laughed and walked to the couch to rest. There were neatly arranged jujube cakes on the small table on the couch. Jiang Jin pinched them and stuffed them into his mouth.

He also said naughty things, making Jiang Lin burst into laughter.

She gave Jiang Jin a scolding look and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, "You are still smiling and boasting so much, but have you ever thought about what you would do if you fail the exam?"

Jiang Jin continued to stuff snacks indifferently and muttered something incomprehensible.

It takes too much time to use her brain for too long. She is so hungry!

"speak nicely."

Mrs. Jiang Lin handed over another cup of tea.

Jiang Jin took it and drank it straight up. He called out "good tea" and then said calmly: "I can pass the exam."

"You!" Mrs. Jiang Lin scolded lovingly, "I can only help you for a while with my cleverness, but I can't help you forever."

She took out a few yellowed books from under the desk and pushed them to her,

"It is most useless to rely on reading and reciting what you read."

Jiang Jin put down the half-bitten snack in her hand, wiped her hands and took the book straightly, opening it carefully and carefully. There were notes written in two different fonts. She looked up in surprise.

Aniang seemed to know what she wanted to say.

"These books were used by your grandfather and father."

"If you want to take part in the imperial examination, being a mother will not stop you. We orphans and widowed mothers are not afraid of being imprisoned for bullying the emperor again. It's just you, don't let this down."

Jiang Lin's fingers tapped on the yellowed book again.

She smiled calmly but her eyes were red.

She also has the literary character inherited from her father and husband, and she hopes Jiang Jin can pass these on.

In the past, Jiang Jin just didn't have any thoughts, but now that she has it, she should do her best if she wants to. She believes in her children.

Jiang Jin is also well aware of the value of these books.

She understands what grandma means

My grandfather, father, and brother are all upright and upright gentlemen.

She was so moved that she went around and hugged Jiang Lin, "My child will definitely live up to his expectations."

"This child..."

"Auntie, is Qingshan back?"

"You're back." Jiang Lin responded and patted her back again, "What did you two do behind my back again?"

"Nothing!" Jiang Jin opened his eyes and quibbled, resting his chin on Jiang Lin's shoulder, "Mom, go to bed early. There will be children tomorrow, so you don't have to worry too much."

"Didn't your aunt not let you go?"

Jiang Jin said "Ah", "I didn't plan to go either."

She got up and rushed her mother back to her room, "Don't worry, I'm here."



The clear moonlight peeked in and shone on the warm charcoal fire, dyeing the whole room with a different color.

The sound of burning charcoal fire was particularly healing, making Jiang Jin relax in a rare way.

His fingers rubbed against the writing, and soon the green hills started to feel cold.

The ends of her raised hair were covered with ice beads, which shone brightly in the firelight.

Jiang Jin glanced at him, then pushed a cup of hot tea, "Why don't you dry your hair before you come out? What should you do if you catch a cold? Drink a cup of tea to warm yourself up."

A bright smile appeared on Qingshan's face, "Thank you, Master, for your concern. My health is fine."

Jiang Jin pretended to hum, "You are yin and yang and I am not in good health?"

She pushed the teacup out again and stared at Qingshan fiercely.

"Ah...no."

Qingshan glanced away at her stare, but finally took the cup of hot tea.

"Have you found anything over there in the north of the city?"

Jiang Jinwen's tone was a little hesitant. Although the children in the north of the city looked fierce, they were all pitiful people. She couldn't believe that these people would do things that harm people's lives.

Qingshan also became solemn. He held the tea cup tightly, hoping to absorb a little warmth.

"One of the two leaders who came out at that time accepted the money, but he told the other party that you and Jiang Ling have never dealt with each other, and asked him to protect you."

Jiang Jin's eyes narrowed. When she saw Jiang Ling coming, she told the people following her to step back, but everyone didn't listen to her and rushed to get on the bridge first, and then the bridge collapsed.

"He also confessed that the other party was a lame man and not from Jiang Mansion."

"oh?"

Jiang Jin was a little surprised.

Although she has a bad reputation in Anfu County, she has not offended anyone to the point where they want to kill her.

It seems the water is a bit deep...

"Have you found the builder who built the bridge?"

"Yes, but he went to build the dam with Master Jiang and was not in the county. Master Jiang did not bring any craftsmen with him when he returned to the county this time."

Qingshan thought of Jiang Ling's words, "The new year is approaching, so this bridge will be rebuilt soon. I will go and have a look then."

Jiang Jin nodded in agreement.

In fact, it is feasible to let Qingshan go, but now she is surrounded by dangers and cannot live without people.

Especially tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Jiang Jin exhaled heavily, "Qingshan, I need you to help me with something tomorrow. I can only succeed, not fail."

She was extremely serious, with no playful look on her face.

It was so fierce that Qingshan straightened his body a little more.

"Qingshan will definitely live up to expectations."

After the explanation, Jiang Jin asked Qingshan to leave.

She sat alone on the couch, and after a while of silence, she suddenly pushed open the window.

The cold wind ruffled her hair and disturbed the private thoughts in the back house.
