Chapter 18 Substitute Marriage
The relationship between the Jiang family and the elder Jiang was tense, so naturally they would not have dinner together, and because the Jiang family was the stepfamily, the Jiang family was too lazy to socialize, and lived with Gu Yao behind closed doors.
Dangdang, the servant knocked on the courtyard door.
Xiaohong opened the door and went out to talk, and soon came back and said, "The eldest lord and the lady let the lady and the young lady have dinner together." ”
Gu Jiayao glanced at Jiang Shi, Jiang Shi got up and said, "Now that is it, let's go over, and by the way, I also have something to talk to them." ”
After their family's speculation, Gu Xi may be the most affected by the Jiang family.
Gu Jiayao accompanied the Jiang family to the backyard where Mrs. Tai lived, and standing at the door, Gu Jiayao heard the voice of the fourth aunt and grandmother of the Jiang family:
"Sister Lin is really pitiful, she is obviously a childhood sweetheart with the young master of the Fang family, and she should be a couple, but now she can only send it to a half-dead Jiang Jun Chongxi."
"If she marries the young master of the Fang family, it will also be beneficial to the Jiang family, in fact, among the relatives of the Jiang family, she may be able to pick out one person to marry the general, which can not only save the crisis of the Jiang family, but also fulfill Sister Lin, the old lady in the general's mansion is a loving one, and she promises to treat the young lady who married in the past as her own girl and meet any of her requirements."
Fourth Aunt Jiang glanced at the door, "Big brother, the eldest brother-in-law is riddled with lawsuits, and he is guilty of being in the painting and anti-willful, sympathizing with the chaotic party that was only pacified a few days ago, this crime can be big or small, without the help of nobles, not only the life of the eldest brother-in-law is not guaranteed, but the eldest sister and Yao Yatou will not be able to fall well, if he is stabbed in front of His Royal Highness King Rui, I am afraid that the Jiang family will have to ...... If Yao Yatou became the general's wife, but it would be a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone, that is, she would save Lin Yatou, solve the crisis of the Jiang family, and help her eldest brother-in-law. This is also the general's wife's house, and the general has encountered difficulties again, otherwise Yao Ya's background may not be able to marry in. ”
Master Jiang said: "I can't take care of her affairs, and you don't say a few words, and if you listen to Minmei, you will not be finished with you." ”
"Fourth sister."
Jiang's laughter was brisk, the little maid opened the curtain, and Jiang walked in with a smile, "It's still the fourth sister who hurts Lin girl, knowing that she is not willing to marry to the general's mansion, and can't watch the Jiang family go down, the fourth sister intends to let Shu'er marry instead of Lin, although I don't agree, but I support the decision of the fourth sister, you are the one who cares about the Jiang family the most, when I worship my ancestors in the future, my eldest brother and I will deliberately say that the fourth sister is good with the ancestors and the ancestors in the sky, so that the ancestors can bless the four sisters more." ”
Sister Shu'er is the same age as Jiang Lin, and her body size is similar, compared to the beautiful Jiang Lin, Sister Shu'er is more prominent, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and she is gorgeous.
She sat next to Mrs. Jiang Jiatai, and her face changed when she heard the words, just now she comforted Jiang Lin with kind words, marrying into the General's Mansion is not necessarily a widow.
Mrs. Jiang Jiatai hugged the shoulder of her granddaughter, patted her gently comfortingly, and said to Jiang: "This is not appropriate, the general's mansion is the daughter of the Jiang family, and Sister Shu'er is a person with a foreign surname, Sister Lin has been favored by the Jiang family since she was a child, and now the Jiang family has difficulties, she should be the granddaughter of the Jiang family to protect the Jiang family, and Sister Shu'er has to listen to her grandmother in her marriage." ”
"What you said is even more inappropriate, the fourth sister first said that I would let my daughter marry Chongxi instead of Miss Lin, but you didn't say anything against it at the time, except for the eldest brother who said a few words, let her make a big fuss."
Jiang's eyes burned, and there was a touch of cold mockery on his lips, "I just followed her words and found Sister Shu'er who is more suitable to marry into the General's Mansion, at this time, you remember that Sister Shu'er is a girl with a foreign surname, is it that Yaoyao and I are easy to bully?" ”
Mrs. Jiang glanced at Fourth Aunt Jiang complainingly, she knew that Jiang was a difficult person, but Fourth Aunt Jiang just had no memory, and she had to provoke Jiang from time to time.
However, after Jiang returned to his parents' house this time, his mouth became even more powerful.
"She also has good intentions, she is anxious for you, after all, she has a sentence that makes sense, Yaoyao married to the General's Mansion and became the general's wife, and the General's Mansion came forward, and the eldest aunt's case also has room to turn back."
Mrs. Jiang Jiatai said earnestly: "I'm afraid you don't know the status of the General's Mansion in Guangzhou, we say that the general is Jiang Jun under the command of His Royal Highness King Rui, who has broken through the capital of the previous dynasty with the present day, and has made military exploits, and was awarded the title of Sanpin Guangzhou General, if he is willing to testify for the eldest aunt, the Guangzhou prefect will definitely release the eldest aunt." ”
"My husband was wronged, why should General Guangzhou testify for him? Even if I need to find a nobleman, wouldn't it be good for me to go directly to see His Royal Highness King Rui? ”
"Flutter."
Fourth Aunt Jiang couldn't help laughing, "Eldest sister, who does you think can meet His Royal Highness King Rui?" Seeing that His Royal Highness King Zhao still has a chance, His Royal Highness King Rui does not see anyone, it is very mysterious and noble, I heard that only the governors of the southern provinces have seen His Royal Highness King Rui, and a woman who is punished for crimes like the eldest sister can't even touch the placket of His Royal Highness King Rui. ”
Sister Shu on the side, as well as the wife of Second Master Jiang, Zhou, and her daughter also carried a handkerchief to hide the mockery on their lips, and Sister Shu'er's eyes were crooked with a smile.
"Don't hide it from the eldest sister, our family Shu'er was fortunate to have met His Royal Highness King Zhao, and His Royal Highness King Zhao intended to marry Shu'er for his second son."
Fourth Aunt Jiang looked proud, "Although His Royal Highness King Zhao's second son is only a concubine, but in the end, he is the young master of the palace, and he has always been by His Royal Highness King Zhao's side, and he is very favored." ”
"With your husband's status as a businessman, you should be happy to be a concubine for His Royal Highness King Zhao."
Jiang's face was calm, calm and calm, and he didn't see any emotions such as envy and jealousy.
Fourth Aunt Jiang said secretly, pretending to be really like!
She didn't believe that the Jiang family was not jealous at all, that was the second son of His Royal Highness King Zhao.
"However, Yaoyao's father is a two-list jinshi, but he just hung up his crown and left, with fame on his body, Yaoyao will be a wife in the future, not a concubine of the young master of the palace."
"The eldest sister thinks too well, once the eldest brother-in-law is convicted, Yao Ya will not even be a concubine ......"
"Fourth sister, you don't have to say a word!"
Second Master Jiang rushed into the door, strictly stopped his sister Fourth Aunt Jiang from provoking the Jiang family again, and said to the Jiang family: "Eldest sister, don't be like her, the eldest brother-in-law is talented and will definitely be able to clear his wrongs." ”
Gu Jiayao curtsied, "Say hello to the second uncle." ”
Second Master Jiang's eyes flashed with amazement, and he smiled and said: "In the past, your mother protected you tightly, and you were not very familiar with your sisters. ”
"Now that the Jiang family is in turmoil, everyone should work together to tide over the difficulties, once we can't keep our ancestral business, what face do we have to see our ancestors?"
The second master Jiang is dignified, long and jade, upright, and quite imposing.
Gu Jiayao said in his heart that he was a character, but he didn't know if he was as upright on the inside as he was on the outside.
