Jiao Niang thought that her father had rejected this family business, so the Feng family gave up, and didn't want to wait for the next day, so she was suddenly called by the Ji family.

"Girl, you have to be careful, don't be a big lady. Jiao Niang stood outside the second gate, waiting for the next person to go back, Qing Huan quietly leaned towards her and muttered quietly.

Jiao Niang's eyes fell on the bluestone bricks, the ground was clean and dust-free, and there were traces of wetness, thinking that she had just been cleaned with water.

There is a thin slit between each brick, and when you look at it, you feel like you are standing on a chessboard.

She nodded, and there were steady footsteps coming from inside, and when she raised her eyes, it was Tao Jin's family.

Since she was sent to Zhuangzi, Tao Jin's family has become thinner and thinner, and her cheeks have collapsed into it with a smile.

She saluted Jiao Niang, and returned to Qinghuan, "The fifth girl has been waiting for a long time, please come in, Madame is waiting for you." It's all the little girls who do things carelessly, and tell them that the girls don't have to wait outside when they come, just go in, but they forget that they really should be beaten. ”

Jiao Niang had a soft smile on her lips and said, "It's not in the way, just watch and watch the jasmine flowers in my mother's yard." The flowers are so fragrant, I want to eat jasmine cake when I smell it, and it is better to have a cup of jasmine tea. ”

"It's not easy for the girl to eat it, so the slave will let the little girls pick some for a while, and take them with them when the girl leaves. The Tao Jin family led the Jiao Niang to the west room where the Ji family lived and feasted, and the maid came up to serve tea, "Girl, you sit first, and the slave and maid go back to Mrs. Yu." ”

Turned around and went to the east room, when she pushed open the door of the east room, Jiao Niang took a look, because she entered and closed the door, only to see a richly dressed back.

That person's back was a little hunched, and at first glance he was old, not Ji's.

"Girl-" Qing Huan just wanted to say that Tao Jin's family was different from usual today, and Jiao Niang pointed to the parrot hanging outside the window, "The parrot has a lot of words in front of it." ”

Qing Huan pursed her lips and stood beside Jiao Niang and stopped talking.

About a tea time, the door of the east room opened, and Tao Jin's family came to invite Jiao Niang over.

As soon as Jiao Niangfu entered, she saw Feng Shi sitting on the Luohan bed in the south window, and she and Ji Shi were talking across Zhang Xiao.

She was slightly surprised in her heart, and she couldn't understand why Ji and her mother were getting together, why they called herself.

After saluting, Ji pointed to the round stool next to her and asked her to sit, "Mother won't go around the bend with you anymore, your grandmother came this time just for your marriage." ”

Jiao Niang "chuckled" in her heart, "Marriage?"

"I guess you also heard yesterday that Mrs. An Lehou was entrusted to propose marriage to you, and this proposal is the eldest grandson of your maternal grandmother's maternal brother, Zhao Wenshao. ”

Feng Shi took over, "Wen Shao is the eldest son and grandson of the Feng family, not only is he dignified, tall and burly, but he is already a member of the fifth rank at a young age, and he can become a great man in time. ”

Jiao Niang's face showed a shy expression, "But I heard that my father has already pushed it." ”

Ji and Feng glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Although the matter of marriage is the order of the parents, it is still necessary to follow the wishes of the children. ”

She pulled Jiao Niang affectionately and whispered, "Just like your sister-in-law, I didn't like it, but your eldest brother likes it, and I, as a mother, have to obey him." ”

Feng nodded in agreement, "In the same way, if you want, I believe your father will not say anything." ”

Feng is in his fifties, his sideburns are half white, and his cheekbones are high because he is thin, and his face gives people a sense of meanness for no reason.

She glared at Jiao Niang, "Although you are an aunt when you marry in the past, being able to marry us Wen Shao is not a burial for you." You don't have to be afraid that he will bully you, you have me and your mother to support you. Wait for him to give birth to two boys and three girls for him, and no one in the Feng family will underestimate him. ”

Her contemptuous eyes, as if Feng Wenshao was a concubine, was already her great blessing, and she should be grateful to Dade.

Seeing that Jiao Niang was silent, Ji Shi was anxious in his heart, and coaxed her and said: "Wen Shao's future will not be just a foreigner, with the help of the Feng family, the Ji family, the Hua family, and the support of Rui Wangye, he will definitely make steady progress in the future." If you can't get up to the bottom of your mind, that's okay. ”

Take a look at Feng, "It's better to find a place for them to meet and see each other." ”

didn't count the fancy that Feng Wenshao bragged, and actually instigated her to meet with a foreign man in private, it seems that he was really in a hurry to marry her off.

Jiao Niang asked Qing Huan to inquire last night, this Feng Wenshao is a wine bag and rice bag, he can't write it, he can't do it, he can't do it, he teases the girl to hook the widow all day long, and there is only one face in the whole body.

This is also why Ji advocated that Jiao Niang meet him, Jiao Niang grew up in the back house, never went out much, and rarely had the opportunity to see a foreign man.

And women are most easily conquered by men's appearance and sweet words, and it just so happens that Feng Wenshao has these two points.

Jiao Niang hurriedly got up and said, "Please mother take back this sentence, this matter must not be." ”

Ji's face darkened, and he pulled a long voice, "Huh?"

"Marriage has always been decided by parents, and since my father has refused, it is against him to see him in private. Jiao Niang raised her eyes, "The daughter has made her father unhappy, and she must not disobey him again, otherwise it will be really unfilial." ”

Feng's lips pursed into the word "one", the corners of his mouth drooped, and he said in a deep voice: "Didn't your mother say it before, this kind of thing still has to take into account your wishes." If you push back like this, don't you look down on our Feng family?"

Jiao Niang's body is even shorter, "Jiao Niang doesn't dare." ”

"Hmph!" Feng snorted coldly, "Then you just don't want to be a concubine?" You don't want to think about your identity, a concubine, being able to marry the eldest son and grandson of our Feng family as an aunt is already your blessing, what are you still delusional?"

Jiao Niang is neither humble nor arrogant, "Jiao Niang never dared to think about anything, but the Feng family is a big family, and Jiao Niang really can't climb it." ”

"Hmph, you still know that you can't climb high. Feng's expression was arrogant, his face was raised, and he pouted, "If it weren't for your mother's love for you, thinking of finding you a good family, and being afraid of marrying into another family and being bullied, she begged me, otherwise you thought this good thing would fall on you? ”

Jiao Niang took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and only listened to her and never spoke.

Seeing that Jiao Niang bit her mouth and didn't let go, Ji Shi pressed Feng's hand, this kind of thing has to be coaxed, and it is useless to force it.

She smiled and said to Jiao Niang: "Your grandmother is straight, she can say whatever she wants, don't mind, but she is also good for you." You go back and think about it, and then come back to me when you figure it out. ”

Jiao Niang nodded and bowed and left. As soon as she reached the threshold, Ji Shi stopped her again, "By the way, there is another matter to discuss with you." ”

Jiao Niang turned around, "What else is the matter with Mother?"

Ji Shi walked over, "I thought, if you get married, no one will take care of Brother An, although Brother An has been following the old lady during this time, but after a while, the old lady will have to go back to Licheng." Therefore, I want to raise Brother An in my name. ”

Her fingertips ran across Jiao Niang's cheeks, and pushed her long hair on her shoulders to the back, "In this way, you will have a support in the future." ”
