Chapter 172: Broken Appointment
On the way back, Jiang Xiaoyue was always a little frightened, "Eldest sister, Brother Xu Yi is fine." ”
Although there was no beginning or end to this, Jiang Xiaotuan understood it, "He is very good, and I also said that he is not good." ”
"Oh, I didn't mean that, I mean that if you want to get married, it's good to marry Brother Xu Yi, we both like him very much."
"When did I say I was going to get married?"
Jiang Xiaoyue locked her neck, "Then can you never get married?" ”
"Why not?"
"Or do you really want to do anything with that little prince, eldest sister, he ...... It's pretty good-looking, but you've said that men don't look good and don't eat food. ”
Jiang Xiaotuan smiled, but she didn't expect her to remember her words clearly, she gently patted Jiang Xiaoyue's head, "You don't have to worry about this matter, I plan to invite a gentleman back to the first year of junior high school in a few days, and you can study together." ”
Suddenly, Jiang Shixian walked out of the corner, startling Jiang Xiaoyue, Jiang Xiaotuan also jumped wildly in her heart, but fortunately, she had no one to be right or wrong, and she was not afraid of being heard.
"Dad, why are you here?" Jiang Xiaoyue patted her chest to soothe her frightened little heart.
Jiang Shixian smiled awkwardly, "I...... I'm about to go to your mother's, by the way, Xiaotuan just said that you want to invite a gentleman back? ”
"I'm already three years old in the first year of junior high school, and I'm smart, so it's good to read and write early."
"Then you can go to the academy too."
"Xiaoyue can't go to the school, I don't want her to be like me, I don't know a few words."
Jiang Shixian's face turned red, when he was at home, he was bent on gaining fame, and he didn't care about his daughter's education at all, anyway, he was not a male baby who could inherit the lineage, and he didn't bother to worry about it, but he didn't expect that female dolls were more useful than male dolls.
"Then you can go with it, although it is said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, but the sons and ladies in the capital like to chant poetry against each other, not to mention that you are a scholarly family, if you can't, it will be a joke."
Jiang Xiaotuan didn't have the kung fu to learn from scratch, she really couldn't compose poems, but what she had in her mind was not just 300 Tang poems, and when it was time to use them, she would definitely not show her timidity.
"Let's talk about it."
Jiang Shixian didn't continue the topic, "What did your aunt tell you just now?" Is it difficult for you? ”
Jiang Xiaoyue is not like Jiang Xiaotuan, she sees the scumbag father thoroughly, and she still has expectations for him in her heart, "Yes, Dad, what my aunt said is very difficult to hear, saying that we are from the countryside and don't understand the rules, and we have the eldest sister, obviously Erniang fainted and was angry with her own daughter, but in the end, it was all on our heads......
Seeing that his youngest daughter was complaining non-stop, Jiang Shixian showed a trace of impatience, which was all expected by him, "Dad knows, I'll make it clear to her when I go back, Xiaotuan, is there anything else?" ”
"Dad, can you just say what you want to ask?" Jiang Xiaotuan couldn't see him going around the most.
"This ......" Jiang Shixian also wanted to ask directly, but it was really difficult to speak.
"Dad, just now my aunt said that I want to kiss and kiss and let my eldest sister marry her son, no, it doesn't seem to be her son, right?" Jiang Xiaoyue looked at Jiang Xiaotuan and took the lead.
"Nonsense!" Jiang Shixian immediately became indignant, "Xiaotuan, you didn't agree, did you?" ”
Jiang Xiaotuan shook his head, "My daughter just arrived at her father's side, and I want to accompany you more, do my filial piety, and I don't want to get married so soon." ”
"Okay, okay, it's good if you don't agree, even if you agree, it can't be counted, since ancient times, the marriage event, the life of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, Xiaotuan, you can rest assured, the marriage between you and Xiaoyue, Dad knows it in his heart, and he will not let others interfere, so he will definitely pick a good family for you."
Jiang Xiaotuan chuckled, his eyes were full of coldness, his so-called good people were only afraid that they were all people who could help him get promoted and make a fortune, as for whether he was a wife or a concubine, he didn't care.
"Alright, you guys go back first."
Jiang Xiaotuan smiled slightly, "Dad, didn't you say you were going to see my mother?" ”
"Ah...... It occurred to me that there was one more important thing to do, and that I would go later. ”
"How late is it? Is it evening, or is it night? Jiang Xiaotuan asked.
Jiang Shixian just made up an excuse casually, but thinking that the Li family had been in the mansion for a few days, he hadn't accompanied her properly, "Then at night, will Xiaotuan cook in person?" ”
Although Li didn't say anything in the past few days, Jiang Xiaotuan saw her disappointment and anxiety in her eyes, and for Li's face, she nodded lightly, "Dad wants to eat the food cooked by his daughter, and my daughter will naturally do it, so I will definitely make Dad happy to eat at night." ”
"Well, go ahead."
Li's house is arranged next to the sisters and brothers, although it is not big, but Li is very satisfied, only Xiao Chu can hang an oil pot with a pout, "My mother is gone, who will accompany me?" Sister, I'll sleep with you tonight. ”
"Nope."
Xiao Chuyi ran to Jiang Xiaoyue again, "Second sister......"
Jiang Xiaoyue pursed her lips, "No way, don't even think about it, sleep by yourself." ”
"Humph!" Xiao Chuyi tilted his head, as if angry, "I'm myself." ”
When he was at home, he already had a room by himself, but when he arrived in a new place and slept with Li for a few days, he didn't want to sleep by himself.
Li didn't bring many clothes, so he easily finished moving.
Jiang Xiaoyue took advantage of the time when everyone sat down to rest, and said happily: "Mother, Dad said to come over at night." ”
"Really?" Li asked subconsciously, and his eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance.
"Of course it's true, my father also said that he wanted to eat the dishes made by the eldest sister."
"That'...... Small group, you ......"
Li knew that Jiang Xiaotuan was a little repulsive to Jiang Shixian, and he must have wronged himself by doing so.
She didn't know how to reconcile the gap between their father and daughter, this daughter had a lot of ideas, and no one could change what she decided.
"I'll prepare the meal later, but ......" Jiang Xiaotuan wanted to say that she had no problem here, but the scumbag father might not come, but looking at the hidden smiles on the faces of her mother and sister, she couldn't bear to say it.
In the small kitchen, Li told Jiang Xiaotuan what Jiang Shixian likes to eat, whether he likes salty or sweet, Jiang Xiaotuan didn't say anything, since he agreed to cook, then cook it well.
But as he expected, his mother waited from the evening until it was dark, and Jiang Shixian's shadow was nowhere to be seen.
"Mother, I'm hungry." Adults can wait, children can't, Xiao Chuyi looked at Li aggrievedly.
Li was very conflicted, he couldn't bear to watch Chu Yi starving, and he was afraid that when the man came back later, all he saw was leftovers.
"Mother, let Chu Yi and Xiaoyue eat first, peony, why don't you come yet?"
"Let's wait for Peony to come back."
The Li family is not willing to give up when he is not in the Yellow River, and the peony legs and feet are very fast, but the news brought back is that Jiang Shixian is paying Yin Mei'er for dinner, and the man also said don't wait for him, he won't come today.
The brilliance on Li's face dimmed a little, and Jiang Xiaotuan was a little distressed, but this was the truth, if she hadn't had a trace of expectation and tolerance for men, she wouldn't have chosen this way when she told her that men were lying.
But people are short-sighted, Jiang Xiaotuan is no exception, since she recognizes this mother, she must be considered in everything, otherwise she will not appear here.
At the dinner table, Li didn't say anything, but she secretly asked Jiang Xiaotuan, "Did my mother do something wrong?" ”
Jiang Xiaotuan smiled bitterly, "What did my mother say?" ”
"It's all wrong, everyone says that the capital is good, but my mother thinks that there is no home in the capital." Li sighed from the heart.
"Mother, that's because you haven't taken a good turn, it's just right, tomorrow I made an appointment with Sister Qiuyan of the Lu family, and I'll take you somewhere."
Li's smile was faint, "You little girls together, I can't go much, right?" ”
Jiang Xiaoyue also noticed that the Li family was a little unhappy, and leaned on her body to be coquettish, "Go, go, mother, Sister Lu is very good, and you definitely like the place where the eldest sister wants to take you." ”
"I'm going too!" Xiao Chuyi staggered and raised his hand.
"You're everywhere." Jiang Xiaoyue grimaced at him.
The little guy wasn't annoyed, and he was smiling and playing with her.
Jiang Shixian may have felt a little guilty about Li's breach of appointment, Jiang Xiaotuan said that he would take Li and his younger siblings out for a walk, he didn't object, anyway, as long as he didn't spend his money, he would buy whatever he liked.
Yin Mei'er was originally a simple-minded person, and she didn't pay attention to Yin Miao'er's reminder before, but when someone came, she felt the threat personally, and she began to think about it.
When she heard yesterday that Jiang Shixian was going to eat there, she didn't want to leave people behind, but she felt that this was not a long-term solution, and she couldn't keep occupying people.
But if she wants to share her man with other women, she can't do it, so she can only use some means, but she has a big belly now, and it is inconvenient many times, she never thought of taking a concubine for him before, and she thought about it carefully last night.
The concubine is not a wife, she can sell it at will, and she can choose a reliable person, and she can also help herself compete with the Li family, she was looking for a candidate last night.
"Xiaotuan, where are you going to take your mother?" Li followed a few little girls for a while and didn't see any shop, let alone a teahouse tavern, so he had some doubts.
Jiang Xiaotuan spread his hands with a smile, "Then you have to ask Sister Qiuyan." ”
Lu Qiuyan looked back and smiled, "It's coming soon, this shop is also coincidental, everything is in line with Xiaotuan's requirements, it's a little hard to believe it, it actually took the initiative to come to the door, do you think it's called fate?" ”
Jiang Xiaoyue said smartly: "Sister Qiuyan, is this called stepping on the iron shoes and finding nowhere to find it, it takes no effort to get it." ”
"Yes, that's it, here, I came here yesterday evening, and I looked inside and out, and I liked it very much."
"Xiaotuan, are you going to open a shop again?" Li Shi said in surprise, and then became a little worried, "Does your father know?" ”
