Chapter 129: Don't Marry!
Old Madam Xie said, "I came to you because I wanted to ask the fourth girl about something. ”
Ask her?
Xie Jinyue's eyes showed doubts, and she said, "Grandmother, please speak." ”
Old Madam Xie said: "Your mother came to tell me a few days ago that she found a good family for you, and the other party is your father's colleague, the second son of the Fang Long family in the Ministry of Rites. ”
"That kid is seventeen this year, has passed the hospital exam, and will take the township exam next year."
"I heard your mother say that your father personally tested the literary talents of the second son of the Fang family, which is a good one, if there is no accident in this township examination, he will definitely be able to win, and he is expected to be able to get Xie Yuan, the Fang family is innocent, Fang Long has no bad deeds in the officialdom, I have also seen that Mrs. Fang before, she is a generous and tolerant person."
"I and your father and mother both look at this family business, and I called you here today to ask for your opinion."
Xie Jinyue didn't expect Mrs. Xie to call her over for this, and suddenly remembered what the Wu family told her that night, saying that she would find a family business for her, so that she could take care of it, but she didn't expect that she would really find it.
Xie Jinyue turned her head to look at Wu and pursed her lips.
Wu was momentarily uncomfortable by her, but in an instant, he remembered her deviant words, and became arrogant again.
She was correcting Xie Jinyue's messy thoughts and telling her not to be whimsical.
What to fight in the army, what to compete with men.
She is about to marry a good family when she sees it, she should take care of it and marry a good family!
Wu opened his mouth and said: "Jinyue, the second son of the Fang family is an excellent candidate, no matter his talent, morality, family background, or personality, he is the best choice, Fang Long is good friends with your father, and the Fang family is also interested in marrying us." ”
"I have already discussed it with your father, and after the New Year, I will finalize the marriage between you and the second son of Fang."
"Mother!"
Xie Jinyue couldn't help but speak: "I'm not married!" ”
Wu's face sank suddenly: "You have to talk nonsense, since ancient times, marriage is the order of your parents, the second son of Fang was personally selected by his mother for you, with his conditions, after the township test, the Fang family will definitely be stepped through the threshold by the person who said he is pro, don't be willful......"
"Mother, I said I wouldn't marry."
Xie Jinyue had a cold face, "No matter how good his conditions are, I don't like it, I don't want to marry!" ”
"You!!"
Wu Shi was immediately blushed by her words.
Old Madam Xie waved her hand to stop the Wu family from teaching her a lesson, and beckoned to Xie Jinyue: "Jinyue, come here." ”
Xie Jinyue's face tightened and didn't move: "Grandmother, you don't have to persuade me, I said that if I don't marry, I won't marry, even if you decide on a family matter, I won't admit it." ”
"Xie Jinyue!!"
The Wu family was really angry, and he said angrily without caring that the old lady Xie was still there: "How do you speak, I am your mother, can I still harm you?" You are so willful, am I too arrogant and arrogant to you all these years, and you are really used to being lawless?! ”
Xie Jinyue's face was slightly pale at Wu's words, but she pursed her lips tightly and refused to soften.
Old Madam Xie frowned and said, "Okay, third daughter-in-law, don't talk yet." ”
Wu was stopped and glared at Xie Jinyue fiercely.
Mrs. Xie looked up at Xie Jinyue and said: "Jinyue, you must know that it is natural for a woman to marry, and ordinary daughters have already begun to marry at the age of twelve or thirteen, and you are fourteen this year, and you will be married in a few months, and girls of your age are going to get married." ”
"Your mother is worried about your marriage, and she has tried every possible way to find the most suitable person for you, and the second son of Fang is indeed a good match......
"Grandmother!"
Xie Jinyue opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but Old Madam Xie interrupted her with her mouth: "You listen to me first." ”
She looked at Xie Jinyue:
"You say you don't want to marry, you always have to give us a reason, do you think that the conditions of the second son of Fang are not good, or do you think that the Fang family does not agree with you?"
Xie Jinyue shook her palm and said in a low voice, "Neither." ”
"Why is that?" Mrs. Xie asked.
Xie Jinyue bit her lip lightly, remembering the way the Wu family scolded her that night, scolded her for deviantness, and grounded her for a few days.
Although my grandmother has always been open-minded, if she had told her, would she have turned to her? Or is it the same as a mother?
Old Madam Xie looked at Xie Jinyue's hesitation in her eyes, and said, "If you have any ideas, you have to say it, if you don't say it, how can I know what you want?" ”
"Your mother wants to marry you for your own good, and I also think that the Fang family is good, so I came to ask you, and I don't want to wronged you."
"If you really don't like this family business, or if you have any other ideas, you have to say it, if you don't say how we can know your mind, you can't just push your mother's kindness just because you don't want to marry."
Xie Jinyue listened to Old Madam Xie's words, hesitated for a moment, and then gritted her teeth and said:
"Grandmother, I don't want to get married, not because the Fang family is not good, but because I don't want to be trapped in the back house so early, and I don't want to be like other women, learning from women's training to teach each other husband and children, and then trying my best to compete for men's favor."
"Jinyue!!"
Wu's face changed.
Xie Jinyue said urgently: "Men in this world can make contributions and fight on the battlefield, why can't women?" ”
"I've always practiced riding and archery, and I'm also proficient in swords, guns, swords, and halberds, if I compare with real swords and real guns, my skills are even better than my second brother."
"The eldest brother and the second uncle have praised me, and even the old general Qi has said that if I wasn't born as a woman, I would definitely be able to make a career in the army with my skills, but grandmother, even if it's a woman, what about it? The three generations of Da Chen are not without precedents for women to be generals. ”
"They can, and so can I!"
Xie Jinyue's body was like a pine and cypress, and she stood straight.
"I Xie Jinyue don't want to be trapped in the back house, I can only see a heaven and earth, a golden sparrow with a husband as the sky, I want to be the eagle that soars in the sky, and my grandfather, like my second uncle, make meritorious contributions on the battlefield!"
"Xie Jinyue!"
Wu's face was blue at Xie Jinyue's words, and his palm was waved high, but before he fell, he was caught by Old Madam Xie.
Wu turned around and said angrily: "Mother, don't stop me, I have to teach her a lesson today!" ”
"How do you teach her, kill her?"
Old Madam Xie glanced at her, with a stern look in her eyes.
Wu Shi was stunned, and he didn't dare to reply, so he could only endure the anger in his heart.
Only then did Old Madam Xie let go of her hand, turned her head to look at Xie Jinyue, her eyes fell on her resolute eyes, and she said:
"Going into battle to kill the enemy and fighting on the battlefield is not something that can be done just by knowing how to do kung fu and knowing how to ride and shoot."
"You said that you want to make meritorious achievements, that you want the eagle to fly in the sky, and that you want to lead the troops on the battlefield like your grandfather and second uncle, but do you know the art of leading troops? Do you know how to strategize on the battlefield? Do you know how to march and how to engage a large army? ”
