Jiang Wu's words fell, and there was silence in the living room. She didn't have any look of shame or displeasure, and the dough fan of the gauze shook again and again, fanning the faint wind, which was better than nothing.

She looked at Jiang Changxi as if she were looking at a junior who was ignorant and angry, and there was a sense of appeasement in and out of her words, which made Mrs. Chen squint slightly.

"It is right to be filial to your grandmother, but I heard that the old lady's health has always been bad. The marriage of children is a major event, and it is tiring to look at each other, not to mention that there are many labors and labors after the family affairs are completed. Miss Jiang's filial piety can be expressed, how can she bear the old lady to suffer this labor. "Mrs. Chen is also bitter, and she wants to lead Jiang Changxi's marriage to Jiang Wu's family.

Her purpose is obvious, and Jiang Changxi still can't understand it. But she really couldn't guess Mrs. Chen's intentions.

It is obvious that Jiang Wu wants to control her marriage, but what benefits can Mrs. Chen get from her marriage?

Jiang Changxi can't help but be narcissistic, could it be that Mrs. Chen has taken a fancy to her and wants her to marry into the Chen family? But she remembered that the Chen family didn't seem to have a man of her age, right?

I couldn't guess Mrs. Chen's intentions for a while. But no matter what their intentions were, her future had already been promised to Han, and it was impossible to let go now.

"The old lady taught me a lesson, and Changxi also felt sorry for this matter, and persuaded her grandmother several times to be more important." Jiang Changxi lowered his eyelids, sighed with a guilty look: "But my grandmother said that she cared about my marriage because she was entrusted by my mother, who died young, and if I insist on blocking it, my grandmother is afraid that she will break her promise, and the Buddha will blame her." ”

Jiang Changxi said helplessly, and even brought out his dead mother, Jiang Wu's face gradually became a little tense.

Jiang Changxi was not born to the Jiang Wu family, which is not a secret in the Xungui circle. Even though the Chen family had just moved to the capital, Mrs. Chen had already heard of it.

But listening to Jiang Wu's words, she said that she had a good relationship with this stepdaughter, and as a mother-in-law, she could also influence Jiang Changxi's family affairs, so Mrs. Chen was willing to come to the Hou Mansion for this trip. But now that it sounds, it seems that the Jiang Wu clan does not fully control Jiang Changxi.

A little stepdaughter can't fight, it's really useless. Controlling the backyard of the Chen Mansion, Mrs. Chen, who has been strong all her life, thought.

Jiang Changxi didn't care what Mrs. Chen thought, and continued: "Grandmother also said that she only gave me a good husband, and she didn't want to go out of line. After all, the head of the Hou Mansion is the mother, and the three books and six ceremonies are naturally in charge of the mother, and the grandmother's fatigue is nothing. Yes, Mother. ”

Her mother has been calling for many years, and her soft and gentle tone has changed slightly at some point, Jiang Wushi was slightly stunned, and when he looked into her cold and bright eyes, he felt unprecedented alienation.

Jiang Wu's heart tingled, but he didn't know why this stinging pain started.

Jiang Changxi is not her biological child, on the contrary, she is the daughter of her husband and another woman, and she should be the object of resentment.

But when she thought of the little child snuggling in her arms and calling her mother timidly, whether it was for the purpose of winning people's hearts or increasing her soft and kind image in her husband's heart, Jiang Wu still adopted her under her knees.

She used to be sincere to Jiang Changxi.

But why, you're all going to force me!

"This kid is just too filial, and it's not a bad thing. When I get married in the future and go to my husband's house, I can serve my in-laws better and better. Say yes, old lady. Jiang Wu's inquiry, but it was quite a bit of Mrs. Chen's foresight, which could be said to have given her enough face.

Mrs. Chen likes the attitude of the Jiang Wu family very much, unlike the wives and ladies of other noble families in Lindu City, which one is not from a famous family, the husband is noble, and she is arrogant, and she looks down on the Chen family from Pingzhou, but it is just that the face of the Qin State Mansion is not easy to show.

But Mrs. Chen is a human spirit, can't she see it and feel it! Mrs. Chen was angry and resentful, but she also knew that the Chen family had just arrived, and it was by no means a good time to cause trouble, so she could only endure everything.

At this moment, Jiang Wu came into contact with her.

Unlike those wives and ladies who have eyes above the top and speak with vinegar, Jiang Wu has a soft temperament and doesn't seem to have much assertiveness.

Jiang Wu talked to her about her children and neighbors, and mentioned her youngest son who was sick because of missing his deceased wife, Jiang Wu mentioned that her stepdaughter had excellent medical skills, but unfortunately she had a cold temperament, and she often appeared outside causing a lot of rumors.

When she heard that her stepdaughter was Jiang Changxi, Mrs. Chen thought a little more.

If he can ask for his youngest son to marry Jiang Changxi as a continuation, he will definitely be able to take care of his younger son according to Jiang Changxi's medical skills. The youngest son has a wife by his side, and he can also walk away from the haze of his deceased wife faster, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Mrs. Chen tentatively informed the Jiang Wu family, and the Jiang Wu family looked flattered, as if it was a great honor for Jiang Changxi to climb the Chen family.

When Mrs. Chen thought of the rumors about Jiang Changxi, she probably understood the meaning of Jiang Wu's family. It was even more certain that Jiang Changxi could marry her youngest son, so she came to the door today.

But who knew that she just asked, and I didn't know if Jiang Changxi understood what she meant, and changed the method to refuse her in a word, which made Mrs. Chen very unhappy.

But Jiang Wu is right, Jiang Changxi cares about her grandmother is filial piety, and when she marries into the Chen family, she is filial to her mother-in-law.

The more she thought like this in her heart, Mrs. Chen not only was not annoyed, but the more she looked at Jiang Changxi, the more satisfied she felt.

What does it matter if Jiang Changxi disagrees, marriage is a major event, since ancient times, it has been the order of her parents, the words of the matchmaker, where is her qualification to disagree.

"Mrs. Jiang is very right, or the two ladies teach well." Mrs. Chen smiled, "In a few days, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival, my youngest son and granddaughter will come to Lindu for a reunion. ”

Jiang Changxi smiled faintly, wary of Old Lady Chen's words in his heart, and did not plan to respond.

Just as she was about to say that Tianshui Hall was in a hurry, Jiang Wu grabbed ahead of her and said, "Old Mrs. Chen is gracious, how dare you refuse." When the time comes, I will bring my children to the door to ask for a cup of tea and water. ”

"Okay, well, that old body is waiting for Miss Jiang to come in the mansion."

The matter was settled, and Mrs. Chen, as if she was afraid of Jiang Changxi's refutation, got up and said goodbye, and sure enough, she blocked everything Jiang Changxi wanted to say.

Sending Mrs. Chen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law out with Jiang Wu's family, Jiang Changxi looked at Jiang Wu's pursed lips, his eyes were complicated.

Jiang Wu didn't mean to avoid her, smiled gently, and brushed the falling hair for her, "Xi'er, what's wrong?" Why do you look at your mother like this? ”

Jiang Changxi took a deep breath, a little puzzled, and also sad, "Mother, does it have to be like this?" ”

"What are you talking about? Mother didn't understand. ”

"Whether I really don't understand, or fake I don't understand, my mother knows better than me."

"Is Xi'er too tired? It's all starting to talk nonsense. I'll just say, it's not good for girls to always show their heads outside, you just don't listen to your mother. ”

Jiang Wu's smile was gentle and soft, like a ball of cotton, looking soft and harmless. But Jiang Changxi knew that what was hidden under the cotton was the sharpest thorn.

"I'm really tired, mother." Jiang Changxi looked at her quietly, under his lowered eyelids, the starlight in his eyes was dim, and his sadness was like water in a cup, which could overflow at any time, "It's really tiring to be your daughter." ”

Jiang Wu's mind was slightly distracted, and he was shocked by Jiang Changxi's words, and he didn't even know when Jiang Changxi left.

Her daughter?

Her daughter, the child who snoozed in her arms, the dark and crazy night...... That night!

No, she doesn't have a daughter! She didn't!

The well-trimmed and beautiful nails were pinched into the palms of her hands, and she used a lot of force, so big that the nails cut through the flesh and pierced in, as if she didn't know the pain.

No, she knows that it hurts, she wants to hurt, she hurts, she hurts. Only when it hurts enough can she suppress the crazy hatred in her heart!

It was the woman, it was the night, they ruined her! Ruined her marriage, ruined her life, and left her to live in madness and nightmares!

But the woman is dead, those people are dead, and she is still struggling in nightmares! Why!

That child, she couldn't save her from her nightmare. Then let's die together, I'm in pain, and that child will be in pain with me. Who made you that woman's child!

No one saw the crazy hatred in Jiang Wu's eyes, and Jiang Changxi didn't know, she turned around and went to Fukang Hall, and the old lady also heard about the matter in the living room and was waiting for her to come over.

"I'm afraid this tea party is a Hongmen banquet." After listening to Jiang Changxi's words, the old lady snorted coldly: "Old Mrs. Chen deliberately mentioned his youngest son, I'm afraid she just wants to take the two of you together." ”

Seeing Jiang Changxi's depressed expression and his intend appearance, the old lady sighed, stroked her hair and said: "I told you a long time ago, don't get too close to your mother, don't have any hope for her, what's the matter now, look at people, have you seen you as a daughter?" ”

"Old lady." Jiang Changxi was so sad, the old lady was not polite when she spoke, and Aunt Jinyu was a little unbearable.

The old lady snorted, she still felt sorry for Jiang Changxi, took her head and leaned on her arms, and patted her back gently, "Since Dongyuan is interested in your marriage, I think it was stimulated by the visit of the Qin family and the eldest princess, and I want to set your marriage first." You're going to have to figure it out for yourself. ”

"Grandmother, rest assured, my heart has never changed."

"Grandmother doesn't ask much, I just hope that the prince can treat you well and protect you in peace and joy, and I will be satisfied."

Seeing Jiang Changxi away, the old lady stood under the porch, the sun after Shen Shi converged on the scorching heat, and the wind dyed a slightly cool breath.

"Take a piece of news and give King Nanxiang a thorough understanding of today's events."
