Chapter 142: Goodbye Cheng Jin'er
Yiran happily took it, "The second brother just gave one too." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Jiang Lingyi knew that Xu Shuwen had come over to pay New Year's greetings, but she specially staggered with them.
Several people went to Mrs. Xu to pay New Year's greetings together.
Old Madam Xu said to Jiang Lingyi, "Have you prepared all the gifts for Uncle Wenming's child to visit Zheng's house for the New Year?" ”
Jiang Lingyi said with a smile, "According to the previous practice, some more have been added, you can see if you want to add more." ”
As he spoke, he motioned for Jingyun to hand the gift slip to Mrs. Xu.
Old Madam Xu looked at it, and sure enough, she didn't make a sound.
In the end, he only said, "Uncle Niang in the second year of junior high school, your mother's family has no father and mother, so Ming'er and Boqing will go to Cheng's house to pay a New Year's greeting." He let out a long sigh.
said to Wang's mother, "I'm old and useless, you can accompany them tomorrow, and you should go back to your parents' house." ”
Wang's mother was busy comprehending.
Jiang Lingyi wondered in her heart, Old Madam Xu, what does this mean? Why do you have to accompany Wang's mother, is it not worrying about yourself.
She was puzzled.
Of course, Xu Boqing also doesn't understand.
Xu Boqing also didn't quite understand what Mrs. Xu meant.
On the second day of the first month, the sky was bright, and several people set off from Xufu.
This time, Xu Boqing and Jiang Lingyi got into the first carriage, and Jingyun Jingyu Wang's mother sat in the latter carriage.
As soon as Jingyun entered, he found that the gifts on the carriage were not only those prepared by Jiang Lingyi, but also seemed to be a lot more.
She turned to Wang's mother and asked, "Mom, what are these?" ”
There was a smile between Wang's mother's eyebrows, "Miss Jin'er has returned to her parents' house as a new widow, and this is what the old lady specially rewarded her." Just a little heart. ”
Jingyun came back later, so she didn't know about the Xu family's brother *** Cheng family's divorce, but Jingyu knew it clearly. So she smelled something unusual about it.
Jiang Lingyi sat opposite Xu Boqing, they didn't know about the little plans of Mother Wang and Old Madam Xu. Since that day, I have never been together for such a long time.
Jiang Lingyi felt very embarrassed to sit like this, so she had nothing to say, "Do you think you will meet Cheng Jin'er today?" ”
Xu Boqing hesitated for a moment before he said, "Jin'er's father-in-law is dead, and she is now a new widow at home." ”
New widow?
Between the fire and light stones, a little thought slowly emerged in Jiang Lingyi's heart, and this idea seemed to be getting clearer and clearer.
Mrs. Xu wants to take a concubine for Xu Boqing, could it be that this candidate is Cheng Jin'er? It seems that fate has come full circle, but it still can't escape the inherent fate.
No, with Mrs. Xu's temperament, she naturally knew that once Cheng Jin'er became a concubine, both of them would be a little embarrassed by Cheng and Xu, but they were afraid that they would not take a concubine, but marry a flat wife.
Although the imperial court stipulates that there can only be one wife for officials, many businessmen like to marry a flat wife, but the law does not recognize it, so the status of the flat wife is very embarrassing.
Mrs. Xu did not mention it to her and Xu Boqing, but sent Mother Wang over, which shows that she was just to reach a consensus with the Cheng family. As for whether they agree or not, they never take it to heart.
They dare to act like this, isn't it just bullying her as an orphan girl, without the backing of her mother's family.
A smile appeared on Jiang Lingyi's lips, you are so calculating, don't blame me for being polite.
If Mrs. Xu chooses Cheng Jin'er, she doesn't mind adding fuel to the fire. In the past and present life, grievances and grievances are entangled, and they must be clear.
Since it is destined that Cheng Jin'er will not be able to escape, it is better to face the difficulties.
It's just that if you want to be a flat wife, it's impossible. If you want to marry Xu Boqing, you have to be a concubine obediently.
As long as Cheng Jin'er becomes a concubine, the Cheng family's superiority in front of the Jiang family will no longer exist.
Jiang Lingyi thought about it and hooked the corners of her lips.
Xu Boqing, who was sitting opposite, was terrified, this girl didn't know what she was thinking, in short, it was definitely not a good thing.
Several people arrived at Cheng's house. Jiang Lingyi was also a little taken aback when she watched Mother Wang's commander pick up the bloody gifts, and immediately became more and more sure of her conjecture.
Jingyu walked over and tried to tell Jiang Lingyi something, Jiang Lingyi said, "I have my own measure." ”
After Xu Boqing greeted Mrs. Cheng, she was surrounded by several men and went to the outer courtyard.
Jiang Lingyi generously gave Mrs. Cheng a New Year's greeting first, "Lingyi gave her grandmother a New Year's greeting, and hoped that her grandmother would have a long life in the New Year, and she would be blessed with good fortune." ”
He also gave Mrs. Cheng a New Year's greeting, "Happy New Year, I wish my aunt and mother flowers blooming like brocade and full of gold and jade." "I looked around again, and there were others.
Mrs. Cheng said, "Your second aunt, third aunt and several cousins-in-law have all returned to their parents' house, you can sit down." ”
Several people looked at Jiang Lingyi, and Mrs. Cheng smiled and said, "It's a smart child, Boqing is so blessed." ”
Mrs. Cheng was smiling on the side, and her smile concealed her unknown jealousy and loss.
Mother Wang nodded with satisfaction on the side, and hurriedly presented the gifts.
Jiang Lingyi said first, "These are the things that Boqing and I are filial to our grandmother to make up for ourselves." He also pointed to a few extra gift boxes brought by Wang's mother, "Grandmother and Boqing heard that Cousin Jin'er had returned home, so they specially asked me to prepare these gifts for my cousin." She looked around, "How is my cousin not there?" ”
She was two years younger than Cheng Jin'er, and everyone was stunned by such a cousin.
Cheng Jin'er's matter was discussed by the Cheng family, and then Mrs. Cheng was sent to the Xu family to explore the situation.
Mrs. Cheng was thin-skinned, so she just talked to Wang's mother.
Seeing Wang's mother come over in person today, I was a little sure.
Seeing Jiang Lingyi say this at this moment, it was only as if the Xu family had already discussed it.
Mrs. Cheng ordered the girl to call Cheng Jin'er.
In an instant, I saw a few girls coming in with a plain beauty.
Cheng Jin'er is eighteen years old, it is in the mood for love, her face is slightly haggard, her curved eyebrows are slightly frowned, although she is only wearing a plain dress, thin powder, she still looks beautiful.
Jiang Lingyi took Cheng Jin'er's hand and sighed, "Cousin Jin'er has a good life, wouldn't it be a pity to stay at home like this." If there is a suitable family, my grandmother and aunt can't delay her! ”
Mother Wang hurriedly said, "Actually, Miss Jin'er is so talented, she is not afraid that there will be no suitable person." ”
Jiang Lingyi smiled minist, "No matter how suitable it is, it is not as suitable as our Boqing." ”
As soon as these words came out, the hall was silent.
Mrs. Cheng and Mrs. Cheng were silent.
Mother Wang also couldn't figure out the meaning of Jiang Lingyi's words.
Only Cheng Jin'er sat on the side, and seven points of surprise were rewound in three points of shyness.
She has been immersed in the childhood sweetheart with Xu Boqing and can't extricate herself, after the young master Jin died, she was not sad but happy, boiled oil for half a year, and finally returned to her parents' house, but what she heard was the news that he was going to marry Jiang Lingyi as his wife, and she was full of unwillingness. But there is nowhere to tell.
