Chapter 164: The Cao family didn't come

The entire Jiang family is full of lights, and the door is like a city.

The entrance of Jiang's house is full of luxury cars from all over the world, and there are many guests from all walks of life who come to Daoxi.

Jiang Haotian, the head of the Jiang family, and his son Jiang Hewen greeted him at the gate.

There was a smile on everyone's face.

"Miss Cousin, there are a lot of people outside!"

Xiangxiu ran into the room and said to Zhang Wen, who was sitting quietly at the table reading a book, but couldn't read a word.

A lot of people came?

Of course, Zhang Wen knew that there would be a lot of people coming today.

But so what?

I can't push it off by myself, and I can't hide it, so I can only be forced to accept it.

"Miss Cousin, won't you go out and take a look?"

Xiangxiu saw that Zhang Wen's eyes were still staring at the book, and couldn't help but ask strangely.

Today is the day when Miss Biao and the eldest young master of the Cao family get engaged! I didn't expect that Miss Biao can still read books at this time, which is too calm!

"People from the Cao family, are you here?"

Zhang Wen asked suddenly.

"Huh?!"

Hearing Zhang Wen's inquiry, Xiangxiu frowned suspiciously: "No one from the Cao family seems to have come today." It's really strange, the banquet in front of me is about to start, and it stands to reason that the Cao family's side should have come early. ”

Xiangxiu said as she paced back and forth and thought: "Miss Cousin, you said, the Cao family's side doesn't want us to unilaterally complete the engagement here, right?"

However, this is not in accordance with the rules! How can there be an engagement ceremony that is done by one of the parties alone? This is not obvious, and we are not taken into account of the Jiang family!"

Xiangxiu said, looking at Zhang Wen's eyes, still staring at the book, not listening to her words at all, she couldn't help but go over, and pulled the book in her hand: "Miss Cousin, I didn't say you." No matter how you say it today, it's your big day, you can't keep staring at the book!"

After speaking, he subconsciously looked at the book in his hand and said to himself very strangely: "Miss Biao, your habit of reading books is really weird." How do you read books upside down? Can you read it? Oh! I forgot, you used to be a teacher, and the way you read books is a bit unique, and it's not strange......

Thinking in pieces, Xiangxiu's eyes suddenly saw Zhang Wen stand up, and hurriedly threw the book in his hand aside: "Miss Biao, what are you going to do? Oops, I almost forgot! This engagement ceremony is about to begin, Miss Cousin, you haven't changed your clothes yet!"

Xiangxiu hurriedly went to get a set of pure white low-cut evening dresses that had been prepared a few days earlier, pressed Zhang Wen, who stood up, to sit on the chair again, and held the evening dress to compare back and forth on her body for a while, and did not forget to break a thought in her mouth:

"Miss Table, this evening dress is simply tailor-made for you. If you wear this on your body, you will definitely be able to compare with the so-called celebrities in Kyoto City. Well, Miss Cousin, you are naturally beautiful and look good without makeup, but you still have to wear some light makeup. ”

As he spoke, he changed the evening dress to Zhang Wen, and then took out a set of cosmetics and carefully applied them for it.

During the whole process, Zhang Wen didn't say a word, like a marionette, let Xiangxiu operate.

Halfway through, Jiang Hewen once came over and told Xiangxiu to get Zhang Wen in order as soon as possible, and then went out in a hurry.

And Jiang Haotian, who greeted the guests at the gate, his face gradually became gloomy.

At this time, the guests who should have come have basically arrived.

But only today's other main master, the Cao family, no one came.

Previously, he also called Zhuo Xiaoman, the eldest lady of the Cao family, and listened to the other party's meaning, and he would arrive soon.

But when I called again, the other side didn't answer.

Jiang Haotian, who felt bad in his heart, called Cao Jingming again, but he didn't get through either.

"Abba, the Cao family, haven't you come yet?"

Jiang Hewen rushed over and asked.

Jiang Haotian shook his head.

"Did the people who inquired about the news come back?" what did they say?" Jiang Hewen asked again.

"Cao's Group, in the past two days, there have been no major incidents, and it stands to reason that no one should come. Jiang Haotian also couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, Jiang Hewen's mobile phone rang, and the latter pressed the answer button: "What's the situation?

After Jiang Hewen answered the phone, he asked straight to the point.

The callers were the same people he had sent out to inquire about the news.

"The eldest young master, the little one inquired, the eldest son of the Cao family, was drunk in the Red Gate Bar the night before, and the eldest son of the Leng family called seven or eight dancing girls to serve him, and he didn't go home until late last night.

But for some reason, Director Cao Jingming was furious about this and beat Cao Dagongzi with a beating. It is said that the other party is seriously injured, and Mrs. Cao has sent Cao Dagongzi to the hospital, and the person is still not out of danger. ”

How so!

Jiang Hewen's brows furrowed fiercely.

"Abba, it's not good. ”

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Hewen looked at Jiang Haotian and carefully explained the content of the phone just now.

"Abba, is today's engagement ceremony still held?" Jiang Hewen asked worriedly.

Jiang Haotian pondered for a while: "Now, the marriage between Jiang Cao's two families has been rumored by the media. Today is the day of engagement again, and the guests are full. If the engagement ceremony is suddenly canceled, I can't keep the media on the side, how will it be arranged. ”

"Then Abba means that you are going to continue to do it?" Jiang Hewen's brows did not stretch here, but wrinkled even tighter.

It is not impossible to continue, but all the Cao family members are absent, and none of them are present, which is a hard injury. Can't they Jiang family just push out the female advocate Wen, but don't see the male protagonist of the Cao family, right?

"In this case, He Wen, you go and ask the old man. On my side, I personally went to the hospital to see through the Cao family's tone and see what they thought. ”

Jiang Haotian dropped a sentence and drove his car straight to Kyoto Hospital.

And Jiang Hewen, after calming the obviously impatient guests, walked towards another quiet courtyard of the Jiang family.

In this small courtyard, the old head of the previous generation of the Jiang family lives, that is, Jiang Hewen's grandfather Jiang Lezhang.

After the death of his sister-in-law Jiang Haoyue, his grandfather felt guilty and blamed himself, he had no intention of taking care of the family's trivial affairs, and hurriedly transferred all the affairs to Abba, and he has been living in this small courtyard.

"Yue'er, why can't you figure it out like this......?

In the small courtyard, Jiang Lezhang was holding a wooden villain, as if holding a rare treasure, muttering to himself.

With gray hair and a beard that he hadn't taken care of for a long time, he looked sad and had a thick remembrance in his eyes.

"You're not filial, leave your father and leave. How much you hate Daddy!"

Jiang Lezhang rubbed the wooden villain in his hand, and seemed to regard this villain as his daughter.

"Grandpa!"

Jiang Hewen walked in.

The old man turned a deaf ear, still looking at the object in his hand with great interest.

For Jiang Lezhang's ignorance, Jiang Hewen has long been used to it.

Grandpa is looking at things and thinking about people again, and whenever he falls into this state, he is most impatient to be disturbed.

If it was usual, Jiang Hewen would naturally not come over to disturb at this time.

However, today is a special situation, and Abba means to call him over and ask about the specifics of the matter and how to arrange it.

"Grandpa. ”

Jiang Hewen came to the front and half-squatted in front of Jiang Lezhang: "Grandpa, something happened at home, Abba asked me to ask you to go out and preside over the overall situation." ”

"Go, go, old man, I don't care about my family for a long time. You get me out too!"

Jiang Lezhang unceremoniously drove people away.

How could Jiang Hewen leave so easily?

"Grandpa, originally, Abba, and I didn't want to trouble you about this matter. But today is the engagement ceremony of my sister-in-law's daughter, my cousin, who has been outcast. On the man's side, due to some special reasons, he can't come for the time being. That's why my grandson was cheeky and came to my grandfather for support. ”

Jiang Hewen moved out of Zhang Wen.

Sure enough, Jiang Lezhang's face suddenly reacted.

His gaze was no longer fixed on the wooden man in his hand, but moved to Jiang Hewen's face.

Facing his only grandson, Jiang Lezhang's face did not flash any love.

One of the things he regretted the most was to force his daughter to marry for the benefit of the family, which eventually led to his daughter's tragic death.

Jiang Lezhang couldn't forgive himself for this matter all his life.

However, Jiang Haotian and Jiang Hewen never woke up from this incident, and still had to take the wrong path they had taken, Jiang Lezhang was angry and never interfered in the affairs of the family again.

"What did you just say? Who's engaged? Yes, it's the kid?"

Jiang Lezhang's voice trembled a little, and he asked in disbelief.

Ah Wen's child, why did she get engaged so quickly? Was she voluntary, or was she forced by the Jiang family?

In an instant, many thoughts flashed in Jiang Lezhang's heart.

"Grandpa, is my sister-in-law's daughter, that is, my cousin Zhang Wen, who is engaged today. ”

Jiang Hewen said again with a calm face.

Jiang Lezhang suddenly grabbed Jiang Hewen's shoulders and asked excitedly: "Are you engaged? Are you really going to get engaged? Who is the man? What is his character? Is it good for Ah Wen's child?"

Jiang Hewen's head was shaken and drowsy for a while, and when he heard his grandfather ask about the man's character rather than his family background, a trace of unnaturalness flashed on his face.

But now, he can only tell the truth: "Grandpa, the one who is engaged to his cousin is Cao Ren, the eldest of the Cao family." The Cao family and our Jiang family happen to be the right match, and if they marry each other, the two sides can reach a mutually beneficial relationship.

Some time ago, the Leng family and the Ning family got married, and their power soared. Our Jiang family and Cao family are among the four major families in Kyoto at the same time, if we don't make any moves to unite, I am afraid that we will be completely suppressed by those two families. So—"

Jiang Hewen explained in detail about the marriage.

Marriage...... Marriage...... It's another marriage......

Jiang Lezhang could no longer hear what his grandson was saying. In his whole mind, the word marriage was repeated over and over again.

Thinking that his granddaughter would also suffer from marriage, he was not calm for a moment.

"He Wen, grandpa ordered you to withdraw from this marriage immediately! Our Jiang family does not need to sacrifice the children of the family, and rely on marriage to strengthen the family!"

Jiang Lezhang grabbed Jiang Hewen's shoulder, his expression solemn with a hint of anxiety.

Jiang Hewen was stunned.

Before he came, he thought that his grandfather would definitely not agree to the marriage, but he didn't expect that his reaction would be so fierce that he directly asked to withdraw from the marriage!

He was still thinking about how to persuade the old man to solve today's urgent need.

"Grandpa, are you old? Are you confused?" Jiang Hewen broke free from Jiang Lezhang's hand and looked at the other party very dissatisfied.

"What are you talking about? I'm confused, and I won't be confused if your father is confused!"

Jiang Lezhang was obviously angry.

This grandson of his own is so unfilial that he even scolds him for being old and confused! In his eyes, does he have his own grandfather?

"Where is A-Wen? I'm going to see her!"

Jiang Lezhang didn't want to talk to someone who didn't make sense, and planned to go directly to his granddaughter.

Where is Jiang Hewen willing to let in!

"Grandpa, did you misunderstand something? Actually, it's useless for you to find your cousin. She and the Cao family are in love and love each other. It just so happened that the Cao family and our Jiang family were among the four major families, and we thought about joining forces to agree to this marriage. ”

As soon as Jiang Hewen saw that Jiang Lezhang was going out, he didn't care whether what he said was reasonable, and threw out all his brains.

Sure enough, when Jiang Lezhang heard his words, he immediately stopped, and was half-convinced: "What you said is true?

The old man was old, and he couldn't say the word "love" in the end, so he only used that instead.

Jiang Hewen understood what he meant, and nodded frantically: "That's right, grandpa, that's it." The two of them are in love. It's useless for you to find my cousin and ask her personally, she must be embarrassed to tell you. ”

"Then what do you have to do with the old man?" Jiang Lezhang pondered for a while and asked.

As soon as he saw that there was a door to the matter, Jiang Hewen hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Grandpa, it's like this......"

He told what happened today, and after he finished speaking, he said with a serious face: "So, grandpa, grandson is here to learn from you!"
