Chapter 250: Specialized
What is An'er in her mind? Her own daughter, the daughter who has loved her since she was a child, is it so insignificant in her eyes? Her daughter's marriage, the major event of her daughter's life, has become a bargaining chip for her to negotiate conditions with the crown princess.
The Pei family has the intention of proposing marriage, but the Jin family pretends not to know, this is a tactful refusal, above board, and downright. "I always thought it was a glorious thing, but who knew that there was such filth and filth behind it." Jin Tongzheng, the head of the family, was strictly concealed by the Xiang family in this major matter, and he was shocked, angry, and angry.
"The lady behaved like this, why didn't she tell me until now?" Jin Tongzheng suppressed the anger in his heart and asked softly.
Xiang Shi was embarrassed, "This, it didn't work out." β
In fact, she was very scared back then, lest the princess, who had no heart and no measure, not give up, and settle accounts with the Jin family. It's not that she's afraid of the crown princess, but that her husband Jin Tongzheng knows that he has made this master without authorization, and she can't help but explain. For such a big thing, acting alone without her husband, she is too specialized.
Later, when she got home, she didn't dare to mention it at all, and after a few days of worry, she found that the Pei family and the crown princess didn't mention it either. "The Pei family finally needs some face, and the princess has finally not arrived home stingy." Xiang breathed a sigh of relief when this had not happened.
Today, if it weren't for Jin Tongzheng's mention that "I have read the manuscript left by the teacher and feel that I have no face to be a man", Xiang would not dare to tell the truth - when she proposed to prevaricate the Pei family first, not to refuse openly, and then proposed to exchange An'er's marriage for the future of Chaoyang and Qingyang, she has been reprimanded by Jin Tongzheng. If she still negotiated with the crown princess under such circumstances, not only was she stupid, but she also didn't take Jin Tongzheng seriously, how could she dare to say it? Over the years, Jin Tongzheng has been polite to Xiang's family, but his intimacy is gone. Xiang knew that he was angry with An'er's marriage, and he regretted it in his heart, and thought of many ways to redeem it, but it didn't work. At this time, Jin Tongzheng said such extreme words, and Xiang thought that Jin Tongzheng still respected the teacher very much, and he was eager to show his skills, and his brain was hot, and he told the past.
In fact, if Xiang himself didn't say anything about this matter, Jin Tongzheng would just be suspicious in his heart, and there would be nowhere to verify it in the end. It is impossible for him to ask Second Master Pei or the rest of the Pei family openly, and it is impossible for him to ask the crown princess, so he can only be suspicious.
Jin Tongzheng's eyes became cold, but his voice became more gentle, "So, why did you say it today?" β
It didn't work out, and I was embarrassed to say it back then, but I'm embarrassed to say it today. Today, it makes no difference if things don't work out.
Xiang has been married to him for many years, and when he noticed the change in his eyes, he shuddered, and said in a low voice: "Although the matter has not been done, our intentions are there." You don't need to blame yourself......"
"You don't have to be embarrassed and shameless because you didn't help Chaoyang, Qingyang and the Tang family, we also made sacrifices back then, and the sacrifice was An'er's lifelong event! Pei Jiabalang is young and handsome, gentle and elegant, the elder brother of the crown princess, the grandson of the elder brother, the grandson of Wei Guogong, who doesn't want to snatch the young man with such an identity to be a son-in-law, our family is just for Concubine Tang, so I pushed it. Tell me, are we a high wind and bright festival, rare in the world? What do we have to be ashamed of? β
Xiang's steady, reserved, and word-for-word speech, Jin Tongzheng watched her mouth close and closed, very dignified, and his heart suddenly became irritable, wanting to choke her neck and strangle her to death......
"Xiang, I want to strangle you to death." Jin Tongzheng hated her very much in his heart.
It was her arrogance and ignorance that harmed An'er and Xiao Zhao. Xiao Azhao is such a smart, well-behaved and lovely child, relatives and friends all praise and praise when they see her, she is more innocent than An'er when she was a child, and she is loved. A child like Xiao Ah Zhao should go to the palace and go to school and play with the noble and reserved little girls in the capital, but because of the stupidity of the Xiang family, Xiao Ah Zhao lost this opportunity.
Of course, Queen Pei won't let Xiao Ah Zhao go to kindergarten in the palace, so don't you need to think about it. Xiang wanted to threaten her with the marriage of her starling, and she could not be expected to be so generous that she did not care about the things of the past at allβit was the gods who cared about nothing, the saints, not the mortals of the world.
"You hurt my daughter, and you hurt my granddaughter." Jin Tongzheng really had the heart to kill the Xiang family at this time.
An'er and Xiao Azhao are all Jin Tongzheng's sweethearts.
As Xiang spoke, his heart became more and more bottomless, and he asked with a smile: "Xianggong, what's wrong with you?" Your face is very bad......"
Jin Tongzheng stopped and glanced at her sharply, and said in a gentle voice: "It's nothing, I still have an urgent business to do, and I want to go back to the study." β
After speaking, Jin Tongzheng turned around, and walked away briskly like a gust of wind.
He can't stay here anymore, and if he stays here any longer, maybe he will really reach out and strangle Xiang's family.
"Xianggong!" Xiang chased a few steps, chased straight to the door of the room, looked at Jin Tongzheng's back, and was stunned for a while.
"Shouldn't I say it?" Xiang thought in hindsight.
After this day, for five or six days in a row, Jin Tongzheng went home to greet the eldest princess of Longqing's room, and then went to the study, and disappeared from Xiang's room. "Although he was cold to me before, he didn't come to this point." Xiang's heart is cold, and his hands and feet are also cold.
She painstakingly ordered someone to hand the poems written on the five-colored gold paper to the study, and the poems were full of affection. She also sent maids to the study to deliver tea and snacks again and again, showing her gentleness and consideration for Jin Tongzheng. However, after she made overtures, Jin Tongzheng did not react.
How could Jin Tongzheng forgive her because of a few poems and tea and snacks? An'er's lifelong happiness and Xiao Zhao's happy childhood were all affected because of her. Of course, Xiao Azhao will not be unhappy because she can't go to kindergarten in the palace, she is still young, she is not sensible, and she doesn't know how to compare, but for Jin Tongzheng, she can't give Xiao Azhao the best, which makes him heartache and makes him unwilling.
Jin Tongzheng has been talking to his son-in-law Chen Lingyun very much in recent years. Not for anything else, just because they both hurt Xiao Ah Zhao to the bone, and they are willing to give Xiao Ah Zhao the best of everything.
Xiang's efforts to please Jin Tongzheng were ineffective, he was ashamed and angry, and fell ill.
"I'm fine, you don't come to see me. I'm sick, don't you come to see me? Xiang thought so.
She and Jin Tongzheng have always been in love, and it wasn't until An'er grew up and discussed that they had a discord. Xiang didn't believe it, if he was sick, Jin Tongzheng would abandon her.
Unexpectedly, Jin Tongzheng was really cold this time, even if Xiang's illness he didn't come back to take a look, very ruthless.
"I'm sick and dead, won't you come to see me?" Xiang was very sad and disappointed and began to cry.
The eldest princess of Longqing has always been indifferent, and she has personally come to see Xiang's illness. The eldest princess was old, and the Xiang family didn't dare to say much in front of her, and thanked her with a bag of tears, "Thank you for thinking about it, when I'm well, go kowtow to my mother." The eldest princess of Longqing smiled, "What a stupid thing you said." "I told the maid and mother-in-law to serve for a good life, and left.
After that, the eldest princess did not come in person, but just sent a maid to see Xiang's condition.
Mother-in-law is like this, only face-saving. As for the husband, he was probably annoyed and ignored it, as if the Jin family didn't have his own person. The sons were all released and were not around. The daughter is in Beijing, but the daughter has also had a relationship with her own mother in recent years...... Xiang thought about it and felt very bitter in his heart.
She complained the most about An'er. "Didn't my mother just persuade you and your son-in-law to live a good life, don't be angry? Isn't it for your own good, too? Why don't you appreciate it. "An'er has only had a relationship with Xiang'er since she had a quarrel with Chen Lingyun, Xiang's feels that she is right, and she persuaded An'er to compromise and tolerate it for An'er's good, and she never understood An'er's emotions.
Once this woman is married, she must be the main owner of her husband's family, and she cannot mention and divorce at every turn. If you really leave, you will not only be embarrassed by your mother's family, but also not good for yourself.
Xiang Shi was lying on the hospital bed, feeling desolate, and ordered the maid to send more than a letter to An'er, informing him of the news of his illness.
The next day, An'er brought Xiao Ah Zhao to visit her.
An'er had already given birth to another son, but the son was still young and couldn't blow the wind, so he didn't bring it out. Xiao Azhao is older, and she loves to run and play, so An'er took her. Xiao Azhao is more than three years old, his face is a little like An'er, and a little like Chen Lingyun, clear and beautiful, carefree, as soon as he saw Xiang's, he smiled and called "grandmother", which was very likable.
When the mother and daughter met, Xiang reluctantly teased Xiao Ah Zhao a few words, and instructed the maid to take her to play in the room of the eldest princess of Longqing. Xiao Azhao was originally sitting on a small chair, but after listening to Xiang's words, he jumped to the ground quickly and steadily, "I just saw my great-grandmother, she is so good, she always smiles at me, I like her!" He said goodbye to Xiang and An'er, and jumped up and followed the maid.
"The girl's family, if you don't have a steady energy, you can't do it." Xiangshi looked at his little granddaughter like this, and couldn't help but remind An'er.
"She's still a kid, okay." An'er frowned, "Daddy said it was good, and her dad also said that children should have fun." Mother, you don't care. β
Xiang Shi once euphemistically mentioned the girl's upbringing in front of Chen Lingyun, but Chen Lingyun disagreed, "I didn't have a good life when I was a child, and when I arrived at Xiao Azhao, I must make her happy." If Xiang mentioned it again, he deduced that Xiao Azhao was still too young, and he would talk about it when he was older. Xiang's is a grandmother, not her own children, and she lacks confidence, so she has no choice but to stop seeing Chen Lingyun like this. For Xiao Azhao's education, Xiang always thought that it was too loose and not strict enough. "The child can't be too spoiled, spoiling her is actually harming her." Xiang's words are wise words, but it's a pity that Jin Tongzheng, Chen Lingyun, and An'er, who dot on their children, are all in their ears.
Seeing that An'er was disobedient, Xiang became more and more angry, and told Jin Tongzheng that he refused to return to the room for many days, "...... I am married to him, and he does this to me, can he sleep at night? β
An'er has been estranged from her in recent years, and she didn't comfort her, so she asked directly: "There must be a reason, why?" β
Xiang's face changed, and he said vaguely, "It's nothing, an old thing." β
Seeing that she refused to tell the truth, An'er stood up, "I'll go to Daddy's study to have a look." β
Jin Tongzheng dotes on her, she can go into his study, and she can read books at will. Jin Tongzheng has the habit of writing notes casually, An'er knows it, has seen it a few times, and laughed at her father for it, "When you are old, you can't walk, you can't go out, look at this, think about Yong back then, it's also a pastime." Jin Tongzheng smiled.
Xiang Shi was taken aback, "Don't go!" β
She wanted An'er to come back to talk to her and listen to her complain, but she didn't want An'er to know the real reason for her discord with Jin Tongzheng.
Xiangshi thinks that she has done nothing wrong, but she also vaguely knows in her heart that she is unfair to An'er.
The Pei family had such a good marriage, but because of his opposition and his "inappropriate" words and deeds, he missed it with An'er.
An'er's current marriage to Chen Lingyun is not bad, the commander of the guards, young and promising, with a bright future, wholeheartedly devoted to his wife, and accommodating to his children in every way, but compared with the men of the Pei family, there is still a big gap. Not to mention anything else, at least none of Pei Jiahalang's biological mothers with unbearable backgrounds will block An'er and force An'er to recognize her mother-in-law.
Pei Jiabalang's mother, that is the daughter of the Duke of Wei, a real famous noblewoman.
Xiang's mother in the end, occasionally looking back, I feel sorry for An'er.
Xiang's didn't want An'er to go to Jin Tongzheng's study, An'er looked at her patiently, "Or, you tell me the real reason." Or, I'll go to my father's study. β
If you don't say it, and you don't let me see it myself, what will you do with me coming back? What's the use.
Where is Xiang's willing to say, "An'er, your child's family, you don't have to worry about this." β
An'er sneered, "In this case, I have to go and see it." β
There must be some reason here, it is still related to me, I can't be kept in the dark!
An'er ignored Xiang's obstruction and went to Jin Tongzheng's study. Jin Tongzheng's study is managed by a scholar and a big girl, and when they saw An'er coming, they all came over to greet them, "Auntie, grandma, you are here, and the lord often remembers you." Knowing that Jin Tongzheng's study was ready for his precious daughter to enter and exit at any time, An'er wanted to come in and take a look at the book, so they politely let him in, "Auntie, please take care of yourself." β
An'er was familiar with the place where Jin Tongzheng put his notes, took out a small key from the secret drawer, opened a small cabinet under the desk, and turned out her father's notes.
The familiar font came into view, and An'er read the words on it word by word, stunned.
It turned out that the person who had quarreled with him, he proposed to the Jin family, and he actually proposed......
That handsome and gentle man, that flawless family, used to be very close to me, so close that as long as my father and mother nodded, it was mine.
Just a little bit, he's mine......
