Chapter 958 Chapter 958
My dear, it is such a late hour now. It is very important that the people in your room serve you well. Don’t delay your mother’s visit.”
Jin Fuyun squinted coldly, "Sister-in-law, please take Bai Shao away. Things here are no longer the same as they were before. I can no longer support such a precious maid."
Ah!
Jiang seemed not to have heard it, and arranged, "One by one, they died like that, and you just let the master's hair be disheveled like this?"
After saying that, he looked at Shi Niang.
"Third Aunt is responsible for the princess' funeral. Since it is mother's last wish, you are left to serve the eldest lady. So serve her well."
Jiang used to be the eldest son’s wife, but now the princess is gone.
She could only hold on and be the temporary mistress of this villa. She had to pretend to be impressive and courageous, even if she didn't have it.
Jin Fuyun knew that she and herself had developed a huge rift since the royal birthday banquet.
Now she wanted to stay away from him, but as the eldest son's wife of the Jin family, she couldn't hide away.
Jin Fuyun wanted to criticize her, "How can a mere girl from the Jiang family understand the mistress?" But when the words came to her lips, she saw a figure flashing by behind the screen and swallowed them back.
Jin Qi, that vixen!
She came three times a day to see her fun.
Seeing Jin Fuyun standing still, Jiang turned around and scolded Shi Niang, "Have you lost your eyes? Hurry up and dress up the young lady."
Shi Niang's old face was red and swollen, and her eyes were full of tears. She endured for a while, then lowered her head and walked to Jin Fuyun, supporting her arm, "Miss, calm down, and let this old servant comb your hair."
Jin Fuyun stared at Jiang, then turned her head, swallowed all her anger, and sat down at the dressing table with Shi Niang and Cui'er.
she is old!
In the bronze mirror, she could see her sunken eyes full of fatigue, and her high cheekbones, like a ghost.
Jiang stood by and snorted coldly.
After scanning everyone, he called Bai Shao over and said, "The general asked you a few days ago. You said you wanted to serve the young lady. Now that you have agreed, you should serve her well."
Bai Shao knelt down and replied yes.
Jiang added, "If something happens to the young lady, you will be killed, so think carefully."
Bai Shao was slightly stunned. She wanted to stiffen her neck and say, "I don't care about my life. I just want justice for my sister."
pity--
She is just a bonded maid!
The guest rooms are really simple.
Fortunately, Jin Fuyun doesn't need to dress up now. She wears plain clothes, a white flower on her head, and silver hairpins, without any color at all.
He limped out of the room with Shi Niang in his arms, only to find that it was snowing heavily again.
"Let's go, kowtow to mother and light a stick of incense. It's time to set off for the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion." She sighed quietly, feeling terrified that she would have to apologize to that bitch in person soon.
Jin Fuyun felt pain in his lame leg from time to time and walked with difficulty. He barely supported himself with the help of Shi Niang and finally got down the stairs and up the slope.
When my legs and feet were better, I thought that this courtyard was well-planned and it was a beautiful sight no matter how I looked at it.
When walking, I also feel quiet and peaceful.
But now that she had a lame leg and there was a thick layer of snow, the servants were not doing their job diligently because of some unexpected events at home, and they did a perfunctory job of sweeping the snow, so Jin Fuyun almost slipped and fell several times.
Fortunately, the maids and old women had enough strength to pull her up.
We walked to the mourning hall with difficulty. It was already dawn and we could hear the sound of mourning. Jiang was holding the coffin and calling for my mother, and Jin Qi was crying beside her: Aunt, please go slowly, let your children miss you more.
What surprised Jin Fuyun even more was that there were quite a few female relatives kneeling in front of the mourning hall.
Shi Niang followed the young lady's gaze and was stunned for a moment before she whispered, "Young lady, I'm afraid all the women in the Jin family have come to mourn for the princess..."
Princess Hong'an's body had been lying in state for nearly twenty days, and this was the first time that the women of the Jin family had come to mourn.
It seemed like she had just arrived and hadn't prepared to cry yet when Jin Fuyun walked in. Everyone turned around and looked at the girl from the Jin family with complicated eyes.
In the past, people would always say hello to aunts, sisters-in-law, and other relatives, but now no one responded.
Jin Fuyun also turned a blind eye and walked towards the mourning hall.
The female relatives made way for her to allow her to limp to the center of the mourning hall and kneel down.
Jiang and Jin Qi, who were crying while supporting the coffin, also stopped crying.
Jin Fuyun didn't want to cry. Ever since she lost her innocence and her mother, she had been crying silently all night long. Her eyes were so sore that they felt burning pain when exposed to wind and light.
She knelt down on the mat with difficulty and looked up at the dark coffin.
The word "甸" painted in vermilion on it almost captured her heart and soul. She knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, and finally placed her forehead on the ground and could not get up.
She felt a stinging pain in her eyes, as if she was crying.
Tears flowed down the corners of her eyes and fell onto the bricks. Soon, they froze into ice. She closed her eyes, as if she was asleep, and knelt there.
After an unknown amount of time, Jin Qi wiped away her tears and whispered to Jiang, "Sister-in-law, how about I go up and help my elder sister?"
Jiang stopped her and said, "Don't bother me."
But in his heart he thought, girl, you are such a troublesome person. You know that she is annoyed with you, but you still go along with her. Do you have to be insulted and shed tears by Jin Fuyun before you feel satisfied?
After hearing this, Jin Qi nodded obediently.
"It's just that it's so cold, I'm kneeling like this, I'm afraid I'll catch a cold."
Jiang said nothing.
Jin Qi took a look at his sister-in-law and had too many doubts. Before coming to Beijing, the family lived in Liyang, and his sister-in-law treated Jin Fuyun in every way.
I heard that the Jiang family was not worthy of a general.
It was Jin Fuyun who was attracted by Jiang's gentleness and virtue, so she told her parents and asked someone to propose marriage to her, and she became Jin Yunfan's wife.
After getting started, he is really a docile person.
Just like dough kneaded out of dough, she had never been seen to get angry. However, after her trip to the capital and her return, everyone with a discerning eye in the general's mansion could see that Jiang had become estranged from Jin Fuyun.
Of course, the eldest sister didn’t have an easy time either.
During the month or so she spent recuperating from her injuries after returning, she seldom saw Jin Fuyun, let alone her aunts, brothers, and sisters-in-law in other rooms.
Everyone speculated that something might have happened in the capital.
As expected, not long after entering the capital for the second time, the news of Miss Jin's heroic deeds in the capital spread throughout Liyang City.
She had an affair with her fiancé, Prince Yong, in the residence of the late Princess Langwu on the day of Prince An's funeral!
Who came from this news? It was as if the news had grown wings, and everyone in Liyang knew about it.
Jin Qi secretly clicked his tongue, fearing that his eldest sister had stirred up trouble in the capital and offended many people, such as Jiang, and had even implicated him in the end.
Unfortunately, she didn't have this opportunity, otherwise she would definitely go and see what kind of person the fourth young lady of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was, and how she could have caused Jin Fuyun to suffer such a crushing defeat.
