Chapter 166: The Engagement Ceremony Begins
The trace of astonishment that flashed in his eyes quickly hid it, and Zhuo Xiaoman stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "Master Jiang, why are you here in person! Why don't you call, notify in advance." β
Jiang Haotian looked at Zhuo Xiaoman, who walked out of the ward, and his originally restless heart calmed down slightly.
"Mrs. Cao, this engagement ceremony is about to begin. No, I see that no one has come here from your side, and the phone has not been answered, so I am worried that I will miss the hour. β
Jiang Haotian explained.
Zhuo Xiaoman nodded: "So that's the case." It just so happens that my side can go over now. β
"Okay, by the way, before I came, I heard that Cao Gongzi was injured, I don't know what the injury is?" Jiang Haotian wanted to leave, but suddenly thought of Cao Ren's matter, and also went to the hospital, so why not pay a visit by the way.
"A small injury, just take care of it for a few days. Zhuo Xiaoman's voice was slightly worried.
The injuries on Cao Ren's body are easy to heal, but the injuries on his legs are more serious.
If you don't raise it well, I'm afraid it will be -
The thought of this made her whole heart start to feel uncomfortable.
This Cao Jingming can do such a poisonous act against his own children! Could it be that there is really no place for Ah Ren in his heart?
Or is his heart so biased towards the son born to those two fox spirits, that's why he doesn't treat her Ah Ren so much?
It seems that the marriage with the Jiang family is imminent.
I have to finalize this matter quickly, if I can, do you discuss it with Jiang Haotian and directly set the wedding date?
"Nephew is in this ward, right? I'll go in and have a look. Jiang Haotian said and was about to go to the house.
"Wait!" Zhuo Xiaoman, who was in a trance, saw that Jiang Haotian was going to the ward, and he didn't think about it at the moment, and pulled the person as soon as he changed his hand.
Jiang Haotian was unprepared, his body shook, and he almost fell.
"Mrs. Cao, you areβ"
Jiang Haotian was a little embarrassed.
Zhuo Xiaoman's hand retracted as if he had been electrocuted.
"This, Ah Ren is asleep. β
She explained curtly, and the reason was very lame.
The head of the Jiang family must not know that Ah Ren's leg was broken, otherwise, if he wants to temporarily cancel this engagement because of this, then Ah Ren's situation in the Cao family will be even more difficult!
Zhuo Xiaoman thought to himself.
Actually, she was thinking too much.
Even if Jiang Hao naively knew that Cao Ren's leg was wrong, he would not cancel this engagement.
Not to mention that he is only marrying his niece, even if he wants to marry his own daughter, Jiang Haotian will not care too much.
He hopes for the success of this marriage more than the Cao family.
Only when the Cao Jiang family successfully unites can they compete with the Leng and Ning families.
The Jiang family's power is as stable as a rock, and the rest of the Xiaoxiao will not make up their minds about this.
"Yes, it's important for the virtuous nephew to recuperate. β
Jiang Haotian took advantage of the situation to retract his feet: "This, Mrs. Cao, let's go, shall we?"
Zhuo Xiaoman nodded elegantly, and the two walked out of the gate of the hospital one after the other.
Zhang Wen looked beautiful under the makeup of Xiangxiu, and her beautiful facial features were even more bright against the background of the white evening dress.
"Miss Cousin, you are so beautiful!"
Xiangxiu exclaimed.
"It's just a side skin. β
Listening to Xiangxiu's exclamation, Zhang Wen did not have the slightest sense of joy.
No matter how nice you look, you can't see your favorite people.
She didn't really want to go out in this dress.
It's just that he can beat the Jiang family?
If she doesn't comply, I'm afraid that the Jiang family will use other means to threaten her, right?
"Miss Biao, you are so good-looking, how can you be presumptuous!" Xiangxiu began her broken thoughts again.
Seeing that Zhang Wen was silent, she muttered two sentences, and then lost interest, and muttered in her mouth instead:
It's really strange, why hasn't there been any movement in the front hall?
It's about time for the ceremony to begin, and at this time, someone should come over to inform you that Miss Biao should go out and make an appearance!
Xiangxiu was a little anxious.
"Miss Cousin, aren't you in a hurry?" Looking at Zhang Wen's expressionless face, Xiangxiu was also speechless.
"Xiangxiu, you're in a hurry, you can get married. β
Zhang Wen replied lightly.
Belch!
Xiangxiu was speechless for a moment.
She thought, after all, the other party is the eldest son of Cao, as long as she marries in, she will be the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Cao family respected by everyone.
However, this also requires her identity to be a good match before she can get married!
Otherwise, how could Master Cao set his sights on her little servant!
Hey, Miss Table, too.
This is obvious, that is, she doesn't know the blessing in the blessing, which causes her to follow this old man's heart.
Xiangxiu didn't speak, and Zhang Wen was also happy to be clean.
But this purity did not last long, and a servant's voice suddenly sounded outside: "Miss Cousin, the old master is here." β
Old Owner?
Zhang Wen was stunned when she heard this, this old family master can't be her nominal grandfather, right?
What is he here for? Is he here to make a block for himself?
After thinking about it, Jiang Lezhang had already come in from outside the door.
"Ah Wen!"
Jiang Lezhangzai looked at Zhang Wen carefully, and tears were faintly visible in the corners of his eyes.
It's Yue'er's daughter! Between her eyebrows, she looks like seven or eight points!
Jiang Lezhang's eyes became more and more red.
"Ah Wen, I'm your grandfather, call grandpa. β
This is the first time Zhang Wen has seen Jiang Lezhang after coming to Jiang's house.
Looking at this white-haired old man, Zhang Wen's eyes, for some reason, a trace of tears appeared.
How could I shed tears in front of the Jiang family?
Zhang Wen held back the tears in her eyes.
"Grandpa. β
The voice is flat, not close, but a little distant.
Jiang Lezhang clearly heard it, but pretended not to know: "Okay! Okay! I didn't expect that Yue'er's daughter has grown so big!"
Looking at the more and more outstanding people in a white evening dress, Jiang Lezhang's eyes were only full of emotion.
"Old master. β
Xiangxiu saluted him and silently stepped aside.
"Ah Wen, come, come to grandpa. Let my grandfather take a closer look. β
Jiang Lezhang greeted Zhang Wen warmly.
A moment of hesitation flashed in the latter's eyes.
She is not particularly accustomed to being too close to others.
Even if this person is his nominal grandfather......
"Miss Cousin, the old master asked you to come over!"
On the side, Xiang Xiu looked anxiously again and again, that look, it was simply the emperor's eunuch who was not in a hurry.
Under the urging of Xiangxiu, Zhang Wen reluctantly took steps and stood in front of Jiang Lezhang.
However, when she was still three meters away from the other party, Zhang Wen refused to take another step.
Jiang Lezhang didn't care.
He knew that it was very rare for his granddaughter to be able to do this.
After all, he, who is a grandfather, is only meeting him for the first time today.
"Ah Wen, are you resentful of your grandfather?"
Jiang Lezhang's words were filled with a bit of guilt.
Zhang Wen raised her eyes in surprise: "Grandpa, how can I resent you?"
Would she hate someone she'd never met?
If you think about it, you still have some hatred, right?
If it weren't for the Jiang family, would their parents both die?
But when she saw Jiang Lezhang's old face, Zhang Wen suddenly stopped hating, but felt a little pity for this old man.
The guilt in Jiang Lezhang's heart was even stronger.
"How are you doing all these years?" his voice trembled.
Since passing the position of head of the family to Jiang Haotian, Jiang Lezhang has no longer asked about the world. Early years. He once had the idea of taking Zhang Wen to his side to raise him, but the little girl held a grudge at that time and was unwilling to return to the Jiang family.
This time I finally came back, but not long after, I had to marry into another family.
As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Lezhang's heart felt very uncomfortable.
But fortunately, at least Ah Wen's child is married to the person she likes. This time, at least there won't be another tragedy like Yue'er before, right?
The old man thought silently in his heart.
"Grandpa, I'm fine, thank you for remembering. Zhang Wen replied politely and detachedly.
Jiang Lezhang's heart hurt again.
This child was forced by him to break away from himself!
However, the mistakes of the past have long been cast, and if you want to change them, it is too late......
"Ah Wen, you have grown up, and you are about to get married. My grandfather was very reluctant, and when I went to Cao's house in the future, if I suffered any grievances, I must come back and tell my grandfather. If that Cao Gongzi gives you anger, don't bear it yourself. With Grandpa here, no one can bully you. β
Listening to Jiang Lezhang's concerned advice, Zhang Wen's heart was very uncomfortable.
What does it mean that with him, no one can bully himself?
As for a person like Cao Ren, she didn't believe that the Jiang family hadn't investigated it in advance!
Knowing that the other party is a scumbag, he still forced himself to marry in the past, but now, he pretended to say what he wanted to support her? Really think that he is a three-year-old child, so easy to trust people?
Zhang Wen looked noncommittal.
Seeing this, Jiang Lezhang couldn't help but sigh lightly.
Maybe this kid still has some opinions about the Jiang family in his heart, it's a big deal, his old bones will come out of the mountain again, pay more attention to the affairs of the Cao family in the future, and try to give her more to rely on.
Thinking about it like this, Jiang Lezhang's heart felt a little better.
After a few more words, he left.
Not long after, a maid came to the front hall: "Miss Cousin, the ceremony is about to begin." The eldest young master asked you to go to the front hall to prepare. β
"Okay, I'll be right over. β
Zhang Wen replied expressionlessly, and with the support of Xiangxiu, she slowly walked towards the front hall with a white evening dress that mopped the floor.
There were dozens of seats in the front hall, and all the people present were some of the biggest names in Kyoto City.
Seeing Zhuo Xiaoman, the eldest lady of the Cao family, coming side by side with his father Jiang Haotian, Jiang Hewen's heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Zhuo Xiaoman came to the Cao family alone, in the end, there was a complete explanation for today's engagement ceremony.
Their Jiang family, after today, will definitely be able to reach a higher level of strength!
"I announce, the engagement ceremony, officially begins!"
Jiang Hewen held the microphone in his hand and announced loudly to the hundreds of visitors present.
At the same time, in front of the gate of the Jiang family, a black car was parked in a low-key manner, and five people got out of the car, all of them were dressed in suits and leather shoes, and there was a red rose pinned to their chests.
"Gentlemen, please show me your invitations!"
The guards at the door stopped a few people.
