The artificial smile on Jiang Wan's face froze, she gritted her teeth angrily and managed to maintain a smile:
"That's what the second sister said. Who can be sure that we will win..."
"A person from our Northern Palace recently took part in the imperial examination, so I concluded that he will definitely pass." Jiang Rong looked at her and said in a matter-of-fact tone:
"Of course, people are different. You should not have such confidence in Shen Wenyuan."
Jiang Wan was angry and annoyed, speechless.
She originally wanted to make Jiang Rong angry, but she didn't expect that Jiang Rong would be so angry.
"Sister-in-law, let's go back!" Xie Ruojiao finished hanging the prayer wind chimes and came to Jiang Rong's side.
She didn't hear their conversation and glanced at Jiang Wan curiously:
"What are you talking about?"
Jiang Rong said calmly, "She said her fiancé's literary talent was too poor and the imperial examination was difficult."
"Ah, this..." Xie Ruojiao thought to herself, how do you usually comfort her at times like this?
An idea flashed in Xie Ruojiao's mind, and she looked at Jiang Wan's kind words:
"The important thing is to participate! If you accumulate more experience, there will always be hope!"
Jiang Wanqi's face became even worse.
What does participation mean? How many more times do you have to take the test? Such unlucky words! Bah bah bah!
Her fiancé will definitely win this time!
……
Wanfu Mountain, in front of the prayer tower.
"I heard from the immortals that the Songzi Peak here is very effective. Go and pay homage." Old Concubine Xie looked at Xie Lingxi and gave her instructions carefully.
Xie Lingxi frowned slightly, "?"
"Look at Ms. Qiao's pregnancy, you have to hurry up. I deliberately avoided Rong Yatou and talked to you alone because I was afraid that Rong Yatou would be stressed..." Old Concubine Xie looked at Xie Lingxi and urged:
"Our Xie family has only a few heirs. If...if our ancestors still have souls in heaven, I hope to see someone succeed you..."
How could the old concubine not be anxious in her heart?
It’s just that if you push your grandson’s daughter-in-law, she will definitely feel that she didn’t do a good job...
Rong Yatou has done very well.
Therefore, the pressure is still on the precious grandson.
Xie Lingxi was a little helpless, "Yeah, I understand."
"Don't fool me. I'll ask Grandma Sun to go with you!" Old Concubine Xie obviously knew him very well.
Xie Lingxi never argued with the old concubine, but what you say is one thing, whether he can handle it or not is another matter.
Xie Lingxi:......
The old man has enough to worry about. Yesterday he cried in front of the Ning family memorial tablet for half the night...
Xie Lingxi didn't want to make her sad again.
It's just a visit.
With Grandma Sun keeping an eye on her, Xie Lingxi went to Son-Song Peak in person to pay homage to the Son-Sending Guanyin, which was rumored to be very effective...
This was just to deal with his grandmother. When he did all this, there was no fluctuation in his heart...
First arrival...
When he was going down the mountain, he met Jiang Rong who was waiting for him obediently at the foot of the mountain.
……
Aunt Jiang Rong and her two sisters just came down from Laurel Peak...
Then I saw a familiar figure next door to Song Zifeng.
"Sister-in-law, look! Is that my brother?" Xie Ruojiao pointed at the figure praying for blessings and offering incense.
Jiang Rong's almond-shaped eyes widened.
The dim light of the morning sun fell on the man's tall figure. He worshiped in front of the statue, and the master dipped a willow branch in the clear spring water and sprinkled it slightly on his head.
Like a solemn and pious picture.
In the Western Zhou Dynasty, all those who came to worship Guanyin were women. He was the only man who stood out.
Jiang Rong's face turned red.
To give birth to a child, you must first consummate the marriage.
So, he seemed calm and calm, but was he really so eager to consummate his marriage with her?
Humph, your husband is so eager, yet he still pretends to be reserved in front of her!
……
Send to the foot of Zifeng Mountain.
The young couple looked at each other.
"Why are you here?" Xie Lingxi looked a little unnatural.
Worship God and ask for a son. Surprisingly... Jiang Rong saw it!
Jiang Rong looked at him with watery eyes, a small smile in her eyes, "I happened to see you... Husband, it turns out you are in such a hurry."
"No. Let nature take its course." Xie Lingxi said with a stiff face.
Jiang Rong reached out to hold his arm, smiled tightly and whispered into his ear: "It's okay, it's okay, I understand. It's normal for you to want to be husband and wife with me and have children."
The little girl exhaled like a orchid.
Xie Lingxi's ears immediately flushed with an unspeakable blush.
"Jiang Rong." Xie Lingxi tried to explain.
"Huh?" Jiang Rong looked at him with a smile.
Xie Lingxi remembered what the old concubine had said to him. Indeed, if Jiang Rong knew that her elders had given birth, she would be very stressed...
"It's okay." Xie Lingxi took back her words.
"Husband, you can call me by my name if you have nothing to do, but I have a small suggestion. You can call me Duoshengfen by both my first and last name. How about you call me Rongrong?" Jiang Rong tilted her head slightly to look at him, smiling sweetly. .
A woman's maiden name is a very intimate title.
Apart from the elders, only the husband can call.
Xie Lingxi suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling in her heart. He and Jiang Rong were the closest people in the world at this moment.
No matter what the future holds.
At this moment, she belongs to him alone, Rong Rong.
"Rong Rong." Xie Lingxi called her.
The man's voice was clear and magnetic, like a clear spring striking a stone.
Jiang Rong felt inexplicably that the voice he called his name was particularly pleasant.
"Yes!" Jiang Rong responded to him with a smile, a whole flower tree blooming in his heart.
……
The old concubine Xie left Beijing to pray for blessings the next day.
Jiang Rong, Xie Lingxi and Xie Ruojiao returned to the palace.
"Prince Concubine!" Feicui stood guard in front of the mansion and hurriedly greeted her: "Concubine Zhao must send Xue Tuan'er away!"
Xue Tuan'er had been recovering from his injuries for many days, and it only took these two days for him to recover.
Jiang Rong didn't take it with him before because of its inconvenient leg injury. But I also go to the cat's nest to see it from time to time, and one person and one cat are becoming more and more familiar...
"Last night they tried to take Xue Tuan'er away by force. My servant hurriedly sent Xue Tuan'er to Wanjuan Study Hall to prevent them from taking her away," Feicui reported.
Jiang Rongdai's eyebrows instantly wrinkled.
At this time, Concubine Zhao heard that Jiang Rong was back and immediately came to ask for trouble:
"Jiang Rong, you're back! Look at the injuries on my arms, they were all scratched by your cat!"
Concubine Zhao lifted up her sleeves, pointed at the claw marks on her arms, and cursed angrily:
"Fortunately, it just caught me. If it had hurt Qiao's fetus, even if I beat this little beast to death, I wouldn't be able to compensate! For your sake, I just have to drive it away. Otherwise, I would have killed it long ago!"
Concubine Xie left the palace, and Concubine Zhao took charge.
She felt it was time for her to establish herself.
Everyone in the Xie family must see clearly who is the real head of Beiwang Mansion.
Xie Lingxi gave Jiang Rong a cat and kept it in Jinyu Garden, which was known to everyone in the palace.
Concubine Zhao then calculated and found a reason to send the cat away!
Kill Jiang Rong's arrogance and give her a kick.
"Prince Princess, she was scratched by Xue Tuan'er yesterday when she came to snatch the cat. Xue Tuan'er has always been well-behaved and never hurt anyone!" Jade defended.
Concubine Zhao brought a group of guards to Jinyu Garden last night to forcefully snatch the cat.
Xue Tuan'er was smart enough to avoid being caught by her and even scratched her twice.
Feicui was worried that Xue Tuan'er would be dealt with by Concubine Zhao, so she sent it to Wanjuan Study Room overnight to avoid trouble.
