While she was talking to Xiu Niang, Xie glanced behind Chen Jiao and found that Chen Jiao's butt was not big at all. When she saw that it would be difficult to give birth to a child, Xie showed a little disgust in her eyes. The son is the only child of the Yu family, and Xie Jin is also the only child of the Xie family. For elders who expect their children to prosper, if Xie is given the choice, she will definitely not choose Chen Jiao as her daughter-in-law.
After taking the measurements, Chen Jiao withdrew. Mrs. Xie gave Du Shi another hundred taels of silver, but did not mention that she would be given an additional portion each month.
One is the nephew of a scholar with the same surname as her, and the other is the niece-in-law of a foreign surname. Naturally, the treatment given by Xie is different.
But Mrs. Du was so grateful that she even wanted to kneel down to Mrs. Xie. Mrs. Xie smiled, said some polite words and left.
Du sat for a while holding the box containing a hundred taels of silver, then hid half of it and took the other half to find Chen Jiao.
"Auntie, what are you doing?" Chen Jiao was shocked when faced with the bag of silver that Du Shi handed her.
Du said with emotion: "Before your parents passed away, they entrusted you to me. They also entrusted us with the Chen family's property for safekeeping and handed it over to you when you grew up. Later, your uncle died outside and owed a lot of debt. , even if the Xie family’s wealth has been filled in, it’s not enough to pay it back. It’s because of your generous donation and let me use the Chen family’s share that we can overcome the difficulties. From now on, our family of three will have enough to eat, wear and spend. It's your money."
With that memory, Chen Jiao knew this, but she also knew that thanks to Mrs. Du's kindness, even when her family was poor, she worked hard to make money to feed the sick rice seedlings of the original body to eat ginseng, so that the original body could survive. Otherwise, if Mrs. Du was greedy , you can cut off the medicine of the original body and let the original body fend for itself, and Du Shi can save a lot of medicine money.
"My aunt treats me as if she were her own child, so there's nothing left between us." Chen Jiao said sincerely.
Mrs. Du wiped her eyes and showed a smile: "Okay, let's not talk about the outsiders. Just now, my wife gave me a hundred taels of silver, and I kept fifty taels. You can take these fifty taels and use them as dowry in the future."
Chen Jiao refused at first, but she couldn't refuse. Chen Jiao suddenly thought that if she didn't marry Xie Jin, she would definitely find a chance to leave the Yu family in the future, and she would have to spend money on food, clothing, housing and transportation, so...
"Aunt, you are my biological mother." Holding the silver in one hand, Chen Jiao leaned into Du's arms. From the age of five to sixteen, she and Du were really mother and daughter.
Du Shi smiled, patted the little girl's thin back and said: "When Zi Chun wins the imperial examination, we will arrange your marriage. It will be a double happiness. You should change your name to my mother as soon as possible."
Chen Jiao stopped laughing immediately.
The Yu family owns the largest silk and satin shop in Yangzhou City and has a large number of embroiderers. In just three days, all the clothes for the three Dus were made.
Chen Jiao got two sets of spring clothes and two sets of summer clothes, all made of fine silk and satin, which were no worse than what Chen Jiao wore in the Duke's Mansion.
"Sister Chen will wear this when she goes out tomorrow." Yu Xiang came to play with Chen Jiao, picked out the white shirt and green skirt, compared them with Chen Jiao and said, "Sister Chen is best in elegant colors like this." Saw it."
Chen Jiao doesn't care about her clothes.
However, Yu Xiang wanted to dress up this fairy-like guest. She found that Chen Jiao didn't have any jewelry, so she sent her maid to move her jewelry box over and selected several items for Chen Jiao. The fourth girl from the richest family in Yangzhou City is even more generous with her purchases. Anyway, if one item is missing, she can just go back and ask her eldest brother for money to buy a new one.
Chen Jiao really didn't want it and couldn't resist the kindness, so she had no choice but to accept it.
The next day, Chen Jiao put on the white shirt and green skirt, picked out a white jade hairpin and inserted it into her head, and followed Du to Yong'antang.
After resting for a few days, Chen Jiao's face was still pale, not as rosy as Yu Xiang's, but her eyes changed. They were less miserable and cowardly than before, and more agility and vitality of a young girl. She put on new clothes. , walked over slowly with lotus steps, as if a fairy from heaven descended to earth, which made several people in the hall stunned.
Yu Jingyao was the first to serve tea sideways and looked away.
Xie Jin looked at his childhood sweetheart across from him in surprise, feeling that something was different about Jiao Mei. In the past, no matter where they went, Jiao Mei's eyes would always fall on him, full of dependence. But today, Jiao Mei stayed quietly at his side. Next to his mother, who was weak and dignified, she didn't even look at him.
He stared at Chen Jiao. Yu Lan saw her over there and pursed her red lips.
"Mom, let's go first!" Yu Xiang ran over and took Chen Jiao's arm, saying excitedly. The spring was bright and she loved going out the most.
Ms. Xie warned her daughter and then said to her son: "You will come back after shopping for a while. Don't let your sister have fun."
Yu Jingyao stood up and said, "I understand."
Du Shi was stunned and looked around at Xie's mother and son: "My cousin is going too?"
If Yu Jingyao goes, would it not be appropriate for her Jiaojiao to go?
Chen Jiao also backed down. Maybe the merchant's house didn't follow the rules, but she felt it was strange.
Yu Jingyao looked at his sister with helpless eyes.
Yu Xiang explained with a smile: "My eldest brother came back from Suzhou and didn't bring me a gift. I'm going to punish him as our guard today. Okay, it's late, let's go quickly, otherwise we'll have to wait in line for a long time when we leave the city."
After the little girl finished speaking, she pulled Chen Jiao and walked out.
Chen Jiao had no choice but to follow her footsteps.
In this situation, Du Shi couldn't say anything else.
Xie Jin stood up, but before he could speak, Yu Jingyao said goodbye to his mother and suddenly said to him: "Zichun, study hard and my cousin will play chess with you when you come back."
Xie Jin wanted to go with him, but he swallowed every word without missing a word, and said with a forced smile: "Okay, cousin, walk slowly."
Yu Jingyao nodded, turned and left.
Seeing that Mrs. Du seemed to be troubled by something, Ms. Xie asked curiously.
Du Shi hesitated and said, "I'm just afraid that Jiaojiao is weak and will cause trouble to my cousins."
Mrs. Xie thought to herself, since you were afraid of causing trouble, why did you still agree to my daughter's invitation to Chen Jiao last time?
