Chapter 267: Roasted Belly?
Although Mount Tai is not far from the city of Jinan, if you carry a sedan chair and sway slowly, it will take almost a day to walk.
In order to be able to marry a beautiful lady properly, Young Master Miao, who has always been lazy and sticky to the bed, got up and dressed up in the fourth watch, and rushed to Jinan Mansion with a welcoming team as soon as the city gate opened.
The carriage and horses galloped away, arrived before noon, left the carriage five miles outside the city gate, lifted the sedan chair, opened the guard of honor, and entered the city all the way. When I went to Jane's house, I passed the "blocked door" pass, ate Hehuan eggs, bid farewell to Taishan's mother-in-law, and welcomed Jian Lan into a sedan chair.
Then blow and blow all the way out of the city, do enough decent, then put the sedan chair on the carriage, collect the suona gongs and drums, and prepare to rush back to Mount Tai quickly. Before the carriage and horse moved, they were stopped by someone.
The person who blocked the road was surnamed Du Ming Jinkao, spoke with a northern Shaanxi accent, and insisted that the bride in the sedan chair was supposed to be his wife.
At first, Young Master Miao only thought that he had met the porcelain, and ordered his entourage to pull people away. Who knew that Du Jinkao's name was Sven, but he had the strength of a shoulder, and seven or eight people couldn't suppress him. broke free from his entourage and took out a marriage letter. The names of Du Jinkao and Jian Lan are clearly written on it, and the date of marriage is at the beginning of last year.
Jian Lan probably understood what was going on in her heart, but she couldn't recognize it on her lips. No matter how Young Master Miao asked, he said that he didn't know the surname Du, presumably just a person with the same name and surname, and somehow misunderstood.
Then Du Jinkao knows everything about her origin, where can she fool the past with such words? looks reckless, and is a very brainy person, no matter how coaxed and persuaded. He refused to leave the eyes of all men.
According to Young Master Miao's thoughts, he snatched the marriage book and tore it up. However, accompanying him to greet Qi Pengyuan, the second young master of the Marquis of Taiyuan's mansion, this second young man had the same temper as Qi Jin, and he only felt that his cousin had been deceived into marriage by the Jian family.
At that moment, he shook his face at Jian Kangquan, who came to see off his relatives, asked him to carry the bride back to Jian's mansion, and forcibly pulled the reluctant Young Master Miao straight back to Mount Tai.
Jian Lan forced herself back to Jane's Mansion, and when she saw Mrs. Jian shouting "Mother", she "fainted".
On the one hand, she was embarrassed and unwilling to see people in her heart, and on the other hand, she pretended to be pitiful and aggrieved under the pretense of idea, so that the people of the Jian family could see how Jian Ying splashed dirty water on her head.
The ugliness of the family should not be publicized. The guests who stayed at Jane's house to drink the wedding wine were very eye-catching. They each found an excuse to say goodbye and leave.
Mrs. Jian Si was so angry that her voice was sharp enough to penetrate the roof, "...... is as brazen as her shameless mother, hooking up with men. Female virtue is lost. Cause such a dirty. Let my poor little Liu'er carry the black pot for her.
Call that wild seed back, and see that I don't peel her skin! ”
When something like this happened, the Jane family was gloomy. Even Second Master Jian, who had some appreciation for Jian Ying, was angry, "Since you have made a marriage contract with others, you should tell us." If we had known that there was such a thing, and we would have quietly dealt with it before we made a marriage with the Marquis of Taiyuan, why would we be intercepted by someone with a marriage book?
The face of our Jane family has been disgraced to her, which is really hateful.
Fourth brother and sister, don't be impatient, I need that girl to give Xiao Liu'er an explanation. ”
As he spoke, he raised his voice and shouted at people.
"Master, I can't help it." Second Mrs. Jian hurriedly stopped him, "How many pairs of eyes are there today looking at the sedan chair that was sent back by the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion, and the one surnamed Du is also standing like a wooden stake outside the door of Jian's house, not leaving, and refusing to enter the mansion."
I'm afraid that the news has spread all over Jinan Mansion, at this moment, let's ignore the surnamed Du, but invite the married daughter back, wouldn't it make people suspicious?
Besides, there is no hidden secret here, if she is wrongly blamed, the gain will outweigh the loss. If she is a person with a heart, she will inevitably be explained by others. If she doesn't have a heart, it's not too late for us to ask for guilt. ”
"What could be hidden?" Mrs. Jian Si screamed, "It's clear that that little slut hates the poor and loves the rich, and he is busy losing his former good ...... when he goes to the high branch of the Ji'an Palace."
"Shut up." Second Master Jian was also dizzy for a moment just now, and was persuaded by Second Mrs. Jian to calm down, listening to Mrs. Jian's fourth mouth, she couldn't help but shout, "No matter how bad she is, she is nominally the daughter of my Jian family, you scold like this, and you still hit my Jian family's face." ”
Fourth Mrs. Jian consciously occupied Li'er, and opened her mouth to refute, but was quickly held down by Second Mrs. Jian's eyes, "Fourth brother and sister, you can live in peace." Everything is out, what's the use of just scolding people?
The most important thing at the moment is to think of a way to solve this matter properly, is it possible that you want Xiao Liu'er to stay in her parents' house for the rest of your life? ”
Thinking of her daughter, Mrs. Jian Si's heart was like a knife, she blocked her chest in one breath, and she couldn't speak, only shed tears vigorously.
She was honest, and Second Master Jian had no time to speak, "It's better to find a reliable person to report a message to the Ji'an Palace, in case that girl can't hear the news because of some deviation, the Taiyuan Marquis Mansion is still waiting for us to give an explanation." ”
"It's still the master who is thoughtful." Second Mrs. Jian slapped her husband on the back, and after thinking about it for a while, her own marrying mother called in, gave a few words, and sent her to Ji'an Palace.
The news that the sedan chair of the Jane family's daughter was sent back halfway caused a sensation in the city, and Meng Xinniang was also one of the guests at the table. After all, it was Jian Ying's mother's business, and the Fang family had released his words early in the morning, and he was not allowed to discuss it in private, so as not to hurt the face of his family.
Others only pretended not to know about taking care of Jian Ying's mood, but Zhou Shu couldn't stay out of it. I heard that someone came to the door with a marriage book with the name of "Jian Lan", and I was surprised, but I felt quite uncomfortable.
Sent someone out to inquire about it, and when the news was confirmed, he put down his books and hurried to the Blue Picking Yard.
Jian Ying fell asleep after eating lunch and eating a little, not knowing this explosive news. When Zhou Shu entered the door, she had just woken up and was sitting on the bed rubbing her eyes.
"Go down, all of you." Zhou Shu commanded in a deep voice.
Others don't know the details, but Xueqin knows it. I had the intention to remind Jian Ying, but I was afraid of annoying Zhou Shu, so I could only retreat uneasily.
Although Jian Ying was still a little confused, she also felt that the atmosphere was wrong, and looked over with half-squinted eyes, "Look at this gloomy face, who provoked you?" ”
Zhou Shu stared at her with his eyebrows, the corners of his mouth twitched, and then he slowly opened his mouth, "Do you know a person named Du Jinkao?" ”
"Roasted belly?" Jian Ying couldn't help laughing, "This baby father is too cruel, she actually gave him such a name, this is to use him as food." ”
Zhou Shu's face was slightly gloomy, "Lady, I'm not joking with you, I'm asking you if you know someone named Du Jinkao." ”
Jian Ying smiled, "Should I know this hardcore person?" ”
Zhou Shu saw that she didn't seem to know her, and her heart was a little settled, and her face was still not very good-looking, "I don't know her, why would people come to the door with the marriage book?" ”
