Mei Jinxue said, "A few days ago, I heard a very interesting thing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Xiao Ziyu asked, "What's the matter?"

Mei Jinxue raised her head, looked around the garden, and saw that no one was coming, so she lowered her voice and said to Xiao Ziyu, "The steward of the Jiang family went to the suburbs of Beijing and brought back a lot of orphans. ”

In fact, Xiao Ziyu has also heard about this matter.

The Jiang family said to the outside world that it was Mrs. Jiang who was kind-hearted and willing to take in these children and give them a place to live.

This is also to pray for the Empress Dowager Jiang, hoping that the affairs of the White Horse Temple will not have a bad impact on the Empress Dowager Jiang.

The Jiang family's move was not praised by many people.

However, there are also some people who leave their children who cannot support them in the suburbs of Beijing out of selfishness.

They hoped that when the steward of the Jiang family met these children, they would take them back with them.

"Is this ......," said Xiao Ziyu, "strange?"

Mei Jinxue nodded, "I heard that the Jiang family has brought more than a hundred children back. ”

After she finished speaking, Xiao Ziyu frowned slightly.

It's really weird.

No matter how kind the Jiang family is, they will definitely not raise so many children in vain, after all, there are so many people, and it takes a lot of money to raise them. So is the Jiang family's move this time really out of kindness, or does it have other purposes?

Mei Jinxue's words made Xiao Ziyu feel a little uneasy. She always felt that none of these children would end well...... In her memory, there was a boundless sea of blood and dry bones.

Mei Jinxue didn't remind her that it was okay, after Mei Jinxue mentioned it, Xiao Ziyu knew that she couldn't treat it as if it didn't happen.

She raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, "I'll take care of it." ”

"Who told you to pay attention to these. Mei Jinxue frowned, "I'm reminding you that the Jiang family's water is too deep, so don't get close to them." This time, General Xiao has been promoted to the rank of squire of the military department in just one year, and the Jiang family will inevitably have more dealings with you in the future. I'm just worried about you, and ......"

She was also worried about Xiao Yuzhu.

Xiao Yuzhu's character, she knows it very well.

For Xiao Yuzhu, family is his weakness.

Mei Jinxue likes Xiao Yuzhu, so naturally she wants to help him protect his family.

She will appear at the Jiang family today, not because she likes to be lively by nature, but because she was afraid that something would happen to Xiao Ziyu and the Gu family, so she came over in person. However, Mei Jinxue found in contact with Xiao Ziyu during this period of time that Xiao Ziyu was actually not so stupid, and Xiao Ziyu's expression and temperament did not look like a little girl at all.

Such a Xiao Ziyu is very much like her sister.

At that time, Mrs. Jiang was holding Gu's hand, like a friend who had not seen each other for many years, and talked about Xiao Yuzhu's family affairs.

In fact, Xiao Yuzhu has already reached the age when he should be married, but because of his weak body, he has never been completely settled. Gu Shi was also a little uneasy in her heart, she always felt that when Xiao Yuzhu's family affairs were settled, her heart would be stable.

Mrs. Jiang said, "My sister has always been filial, this child is sensible and obedient, and she is my favorite granddaughter." ”

As he spoke, a girl in a long red dress walked in front of Gu Shi around the white jade screen and handed a cup of tea to Gu Shi.

She is docile and well-behaved, and her appearance is also very delicate, "Madam, please use tea." ”

There are some things that don't need to be said too clearly.

Mrs. Jiang's meaning is obvious, she hopes that the Jiang family and the Xiao family will have a relationship, preferably by in-laws. The Jiang family is now a queen mother, and her status is as solid as a mountain, and at this time, the Jiang family is willing to marry her granddaughter to Xiao Yuzhu, which is a blessing from the Xiao family.

But the more Mrs. Jiang was like this, the more strange Gu felt in her heart.

She never thought that she would find a woman with a good background for Xiao Yuzhu.

"Miss Six is really outstanding. Gu pretended not to know, and said with a smile, "The young lady from the Jiang family is really different." ”

Mrs. Jiang knew that Gu was pretending to be confused, and she was not angry with Gu, but let her granddaughter step down, and said, "My sister is a hard-working child, her father and mother went early, and she has been raised by my side since then." Now, I'm too old to keep her with me for the rest of my life, so I want to find her a good family. You're a smart guy......"

Mrs. Jiang said very sincerely, as if she really couldn't bear her granddaughter.

"I heard that Xiao Sangongzi is talented and handsome. Mrs. Jiang's words were very direct, "So, I want to mention this family matter in person." ”

Gu Shi was stunned, she didn't expect that she was pretending to be confused, and she couldn't get through this hurdle safely.

Miss Jiang's sixth lady's parents did die, but she knew that this young lady actually had no status in the Jiang family.

Whether Mrs. Jiang really feels sorry for this young lady, Gu doesn't know.

However, the Jiang family did not want a child to be thrown to her son, and the Gu family was naturally unwilling.

"Actually......" Gu sighed, "Speaking of which, my family Yuzhu doesn't have this good fortune, and he already has someone in his heart." ”

Gu's words are not perfunctory.

During this time, she has been helping Xiao Yuzhu find a suitable woman to be his wife, in fact, the Gu family hopes that Xiao Yuzhu's future wife is a child who is not born high and is docile and considerate.

But Xiao Yuzhu refused.

He said, "Mother, that's all I have for this body, and I don't know how many years I can live." So, you don't have to help me think about family affairs anymore, I don't want to hurt people, and I don't want to find a random girl to make do with. ”

When Gu Shi heard this, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

Xiao Yuzhu's illness was present in the mother's womb.

Although over the years, I have used a lot of good medicines to warm my body, but I still haven't seen any improvement.

How long can Xiao Yuzhu live? No one can say.

"How can you think that. Gu comforted Xiao Yuzhu, "Your illness will be fine." ”

Xiao Yuzhu smiled, "I haven't asked my mother for anything since I was a child, mother...... Just promise me, I don't want to hurt that innocent girl, and I don't want her to intrude into my life. ”

He said it resolutely, and Gu Shi was not easy to refuse.

In private, even Xiao Siye said that his son had grown up and respected his decision.

Therefore, when Mrs. Jiang mentioned that she wanted to marry her granddaughter to Xiao Yuzhu, Gu refused without much thought.

Although this may make Mrs. Jiang angry, she is even more reluctant to embarrass her son.

"My sister won't mind if he takes another concubine. Mrs. Jiang was very generous, "None of the girls from the Jiang family are jealous. ”

Gu frowned and stopped talking.

She did not refuse, nor did she immediately agree.

Seeing that the Gu family no longer spoke, Mrs. Jiang said again, "I once heard the Queen Mother mention that the young master of the Bai family wanted to marry the young lady of the Xiao family, and a few days ago he personally went to the palace to ask the Holy Majesty to give him a marriage!" )
