Chapter 89: The Roar of the River Lion in Jiangfu

"Of course it's not good!"

My aunt was so angry that she left Liu Yueniang and rushed to her cousin with a livid face. She said angrily: "Don't let me go! Are you addicted to cuddling?"

"No, I didn't hug them. I was just worried that they wouldn't be able to stand firmly, so I just gave them a little support."

My cousin reluctantly let go of his hand, with a look of unfinished expression on his face.

"Bah! I'm still unsteady on my feet, why don't you come and help me?

You, such a shameless old man, still want to take a concubine? Wait until I die!"

While scolding, the aunt glared at Wang Wen's two former concubines angrily.

The two beauties were so frightened that they hid behind their cousin.

My cousin looked distressed and couldn't help frowning at my aunt and said, "Can you please stop being so aggressive? You're scaring people!"

"I'm a bitch? You actually said I'm a bitch?"

Didn't you call me "Little Tiantian" every night?

Now you actually think I'm a bit aggressive?

The aunt's face was full of disbelief. She covered her painful chest with her left hand and grabbed her cousin's collar with her right hand. Her eyes were red and she said: "Old man, if you dare to take a concubine today, I will kill you."

Look! Say, do you want them or me?"

this……

My cousin was panicked.

While she was full of tangles, Liu Yueniang suddenly asked innocently: "Auntie, don't you say that it is right for a man to have three wives and four concubines? Why don't you let your uncle take concubines?"

Well--

My aunt was stunned for a moment!

When Aunt Liu saw it, she smiled and stepped forward to hold her back. "Fifth Aunt, have you forgotten how you just persuaded Yueniang to take a concubine for Brother Chen? Why is it that you are going to die when you get to Lao Wu's place?"

?”

"I……"

My aunt is depressed!

Just when she was about to act silly, Mrs. Wu, the fat and lovely cook, said cheerfully: "As the saying goes, the three most important factors of unfilial piety are not having children.

If you don't agree to this today, not only will you get a reputation of being jealous, but your future will be ruined tomorrow;

Those uncles from the old Liu family will even come and poke you in the back, and they might even force Fifth Brother Liu to divorce you!"

"Ah? Divorce me?

Is it that serious?"

The aunt's face turned pale with fright, and she couldn't help but look at Jiang Chen with resentment in her eyes: How could this unlucky kid suddenly be so 'nice' to his cousin?

Jiang Chen grinned at her, nodded and said: "It's just that serious!

To be honest, I have asked Pan Shun to go to Luwei Lane overnight to inform the elders of the Liu family and invite them to come to attend my cousin's concubine banquet at noon tomorrow. My aunt should go back as soon as possible to prepare.

Take this opportunity to earn a reputation as a generous and virtuous person, which will also be good for the Ming Festival in the future!"

"What?

Concubine feast?”

Liu Yueniang and Liu Mingjie didn't expect that Jiang Chen would do something so "excellent". They couldn't help but open their mouths in surprise, each expression becoming more exciting than the last.

But my aunt felt like her whole body was turning green. She stared at Jiang Chen with resentment in her eyes and said, "Why don't you make a decision without discussing it with us in advance? How could this be possible?"

The cousin showed a shy expression and said coyly: "Brother Chen, wouldn't that be too public?"

"Zhang Yang?"

Jiang Chen's face suddenly turned serious, he looked at him and his aunt and sneered: "Didn't you say hello to me in advance when you were arranging errands for the Zhou and Liu families in my name? Why weren't you worried about being public at that time?

?”

When my cousin heard this, he immediately lowered his head with guilt.

The aunt whispered: "Mrs. Cheng insisted on helping out of kindness, and we were too embarrassed to shirk it."

"snort!

Don’t you have any idea why people are helping?”

Jiang Chen frowned and said in a tone that was unquestionable: "From now on, when people from the Liu family and Zhou family come over, let them go through the east side door directly to your yard. They are not allowed to go through the main entrance, let alone the back house!

If anyone dares to come and cause trouble for Yueniang, I will withdraw all their errands!"

"Okay, okay, brother Chen, don't be angry. My cousin has taken note of this and will definitely not let them disturb Yueniang in the future."

My cousin quickly and cautiously agreed.

"Um."

Jiang Chen nodded, and then said in a calm tone: "I don't want to blame my cousin and aunt, but being an official in the court will inevitably make enemies, so you have to cherish your feathers and be careful."

"Yes, Brother Chen is right, we can save it."

My cousin and aunt hurriedly nodded in agreement, fearing that Jiang Chen would really withdraw their brothers and nephews from their errands.

Seeing that they seemed to have really listened, Jiang Chen changed the topic and said: "Now that the Royal Chamber of Commerce and the Dongchang Jinyiwei have been newly established, there are many vacancies and promotions are easy, far beyond the Inspection Department.

If you have anyone who is close and trustworthy, make an appointment to bring him over to see me another day. If available, I will not hesitate to promote him for the sake of my cousin and aunt!"

"Thank you, Brother Chen! I really have nothing to say to my cousin."

My cousin's face was full of excitement, and he felt that it was really worth it for his cheap nephew to recognize him.

Her aunt had mixed emotions, she was still bitter about Jiang Chen forcing a man to take a concubine, but the envious looks from Aunt Liu and Mrs. Wu made her quite useful.

While he was secretly searching for his inner balance, Jiang Chen suddenly said to Fourth Aunt Liu and Mrs. Wu: "The same goes for you. I regard you as my own family, so naturally I can trust the people you recommend."

"Do we have a share too?"

"Thank you, Brother Chen! We salute you!"

Fourth Aunt Liu and Mrs. Wu were so surprised that they could not help themselves. They deeply realized the true meaning of a person achieving enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascending to heaven.

Liu Yuancheng, who was carrying a big box, saw this and couldn't help but said to Jiang Chen: "Brother, Master Yang said that his brothers and nephews in Bianjing are all brave and loyal people, why not let them try it too?

"

"Can!

As long as you are a trustworthy and loyal person, I will take as much as you want."

Jiang Chen readily agreed.

He didn't like being surrounded by Yang Jian and Li Yan, so he was ready to start cultivating his own personal confidants.

"Thank you, brother."

Liu Yuan was happy when it was established.

But her aunt couldn't help but laugh. She knew that it was impossible to stop men from taking concubines, so she said to Jiang Chen with a look of displeasure:

"You can ask me to promise your cousin to take a concubine, but he can only take one! Moreover, since your cousin has taken concubines, you have to take in Daya and Erya too! This is only fair!"

Only one allowed?

My cousin immediately became anxious.

Looking left and right, I felt that each of the two beauties had their own merits. Neither of them could bear to let go, so they couldn't help but look at Jiang Chen eagerly.

At the same time, Liu Yueniang, Xiang'er and Cui Niannu were also looking nervously at Jiang Chen.

Although Xiang'er and Cui Niannu didn't know much about the affairs between men and women, as the maidservant of the housekeeper, they both knew that sooner or later they would be given to Jiang Chen as their concubines, and they instinctively rejected Jiang Chen's desire to take other women as his concubines.
