The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 270 Li Ling is jealous

After Jiang Youchen's errand was settled, he bought a house in Beijing. Not long after he took up his post in Beijing, he did not invite anyone else to the housewarming ceremony. He only invited Li Ling and his wife and Shen Xing.

In a place like Beijing where land is at a premium, an upstart like Jiang Youchen cannot afford to buy a house in a luxurious location. Although this house is a little out of the way, it was only built five years ago, so it is still considered a new house, with two entrances and two exits. The courtyard has a small garden at the back, which is quite spacious.

Jiang Youchen was not yet married, and there was no mistress in the mansion. He only had a few servant girls transferred from Chaozhou Mansion to take care of him.

Jiang Youchen is a very measured person. Although he has temporarily lived in the Zhenguo Palace for several months, he sticks to his duty and never enters the inner courtyard to look for Jingshu. Therefore, since Jingshu was pregnant, this was their first time. meeting.

They are all close relatives, and there was no formality during the dinner. Jiang Youchen pointed to the dishes placed in front of Jingshu and said, "Amu Sun made these personally according to my cousin's taste. You can try them."

Sun Amu was Jiang Youchen's wet nurse. After Jiang Youchen took care of the house in Beijing, the old man was worried that Jiang Youchen would not be able to take good care of the maids in Beijing alone, so he insisted on following him.

Jing Shu grew up with Jiang Youchen, and was naturally loved by Sun Amu when she was young. When she heard that Sun Amu was also in the house, she said to Jiang Youchen: "Since Amu is here, there is no one else today, why not Please come over and use it with me. I haven’t seen anyone from my hometown for several years, and I’m really thinking about it.”

Jing Shu's words "our hometown" were indescribably comforting to Jiang Youchen's ears. A smile appeared on his face and he gently replied to Jing Shu: "You also know that Eminem is the most polite person. I'm afraid her old man won't want to."

Jing Shu smiled and replied: "We are all members of our own family, so we don't have to adhere to those false etiquette. I will personally invite my mother to come over."

With that said, Jingshu stood up and walked out.

Although Shen Xing was young, he was a thoughtful person. Looking at Li Ling's appearance coldly, his mind changed and he came back to his thoughts.

No matter how good his cousin is, he is not as friendly as his own brother-in-law.

When Shen Xing mentioned Jiang Youchen, Li Ling's face turned even darker.

"So that's it." Shen Xing said with a smile: "With my cousin from the Jiang family by my side, if anything happens, my brother-in-law can rest assured."

Jing Shu smiled and said to Sun Amu: "Amu, this is my husband."

As he spoke, the old man picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the squirrel mandarin fish for Jingshu. He muttered: "This is the live fish your cousin caught a few days ago. It has been kept in the water, but it is fresh. Please try it." .”

Jing Shu took a bite and said to Sun Amu with a smile on her face: "After all these years, Amu's cooking is still so good. The taste has not changed at all from what I ate when I was a child."

Sun Amu glanced at Li Ling, but her expression was indifferent, and she replied: "Didn't General Li accompany you to Chaozhou? I recognize him."

Jiang Youchen also stood up, with a hint of apology on his face, and said to Li Ling and Shen Xing: "I'll come here as soon as I can, so I'll excuse you for now."

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law."

Finally seeing Jing Shu and Jiang Youchen holding an old woman on both sides, walking around the parapet, Li Ling quickly turned around and returned to the house, sitting down on the chair again.

"You are pregnant now. If you like, eat more." As she said that, Sun Amu put two more pieces on the plate in front of Jingshu.

Li Ling subconsciously touched his face and replied nonchalantly: "It's nothing."

Li Ling glanced at the backs of the two people walking away while chatting and laughing. He stared at them closely, but his face couldn't help but turn gloomy.

With that said, the two of them went out together.

Sun Amu looked deeply at Jiang Youchen who was standing aside, and then said to Jingshu: "You two were together all day long when you were young, and you even have the same appetite. Oh my, what a good pair of children. I didn’t expect it to turn out in the end.”

As a human being, you must know how to be grateful.

After Jingshu helped Sun Amu enter the house, Li Ling stood up and saluted the old man with a smile on his face.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but craned his neck to look outside, muttering: "I'm a little worried about your sister. Why haven't you come back after so long?"

The old man sighed deeply. Although he did not continue speaking, he unconsciously rolled his eyes at Li Ling.

Shen Xing left the house and trotted towards the backyard.

Jingshu went to Jiang Youchen's backyard. Li Ling naturally couldn't find it, but Shen Xing, a kid, didn't care.

Jing Shu grew up in her maternal ancestral home in Chaozhou. In the eyes of everyone in Jiang Mansion, she and Jiang Youchen were a perfect couple. In the end, such a good girl was married by someone else, but Jiang Youchen missed her. We can't forget that Grandma Sun felt regretful in her heart, and she couldn't help but feel resentment when she saw Li Ling.

Shen Xing glanced at Li Ling's face, which was gradually turning cold, and wondered, "Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you? You look so ugly."

After hearing what his brother-in-law said, Li Ling nodded hurriedly to him.

After a few people sat down, Sun Amu couldn't help but glanced at Li Ling lightly, patted Jingshu's hand again and said: "I knew you were coming. Your cousin told me several days in advance that he wanted to do something. Bring your favorite dish."

Shen Xing said in confusion: "Brother-in-law, my sister just went out, how could she come back so soon?"

With that said, he caught up with Jing Shu in a few steps: "Amu lives in the backyard. You are not familiar with the roads here, so I will take you there."

Li Ling glanced sideways at Shen Xing: "Your sister is pregnant. I'm a little worried about her."

Shen Xing thought too hard about his brother-in-law's thoughts and immediately changed his words: "Hearing what my brother-in-law said, I am also a little worried about my sister. How about I go and take a look."

Shen Xing called out several times before Li Ling came back to his senses and asked, "What's wrong?"

Although this brother-in-law is a cold and solemn person, he is really good to him. If it weren't for his relationship with his brother-in-law, how could he, a child of a low-ranking official family, be qualified to study in an official school? That is the red seal that his brother-in-law gives him every Chinese New Year. It's really Gold and silver are also huge sums of money.

Li Ling waited alone in the room as if on pins and needles for a while, but Jingshu still didn't come back. He couldn't bear his temper, so he walked out of the room and stood on the porch with his neck stretched out to wait.

"Shu'er had a severe reaction during pregnancy. If she eats too much of this, I'm afraid she will feel uncomfortable."

With that said, Li Ling took out the fish that Sun Amu had placed in front of Jingshu and placed it in the Shenxing bowl aside: "Xing'er is growing, so it's good to eat more fish."

Shen Xing looked at Li Ling somewhat flattered. Li Ling winked at him secretly. Shen Xing picked up the fish meat and put it in his mouth. He smiled and said, "Thank you, brother-in-law."

Li Ling couldn't hear the implication of Sun Amu's words. For a man as big as Li Ling, he shouldn't be the same as this old woman. But when he heard Sun Amu say that Jing Shu and Jiang Youchen were together when they were children. When we were together every day, Li Ling's heart felt like it was soaked in a vinegar vat, and he couldn't help but get angry.
