004: I don't like women
"Jiu Niang can say this, the old man is also a little comforted in his heart, I hope Jiu Niang can really help my Jiang family this time." Master Jiang sighed, it seems that he really broke a lot of hearts for Jiang Heng's family affairs.
Later, Master Jiang had something to do, so he asked Steward Wu to continue to entertain Xiao Jiu, and when Jiang Heng, the eldest son of Jiang, returned to the house, he brought him to meet Xiao Jiu.
As Steward Wu went around Jiang's mansion, in the process, Xiao Jiu learned that Master Jiang was married to three rooms and had three children, two boys and one girl. Jiang Heng was born to the main house, but unfortunately, Jiang Heng's biological mother died of illness five years ago. Since then, Jiang Heng, who doesn't like to be close to people, has become even more cold, and has no interest in other things except for practicing literature and martial arts all day long to help the Jiang family's career.
And Jiang Heng's other two half-brothers and sisters are still young, although they take care of the family business, Master Jiang still hopes to see Jiang Heng get married as soon as possible before he can really settle down.
"So lonely? After listening to Steward Wu's statement, Xiao Jiu frowned, feeling that this Jiang Heng might be a veritable straight man of steel.
"The lord has always been warm and kind to people, and the eldest lady was also extremely hospitable during her lifetime. In short, the eldest young master has no marriage, the old man has been worried for two years, and in the past two years, all kinds of gossip outside the house Jiuniang you don't know how ugly it is. "Steward Wu has been engaged in the Jiang family for ten years, and he can be regarded as watching Jiang Heng grow up.
"What did the matchmakers who used to call the matchmaker for the eldest prince say? Why do they all fail? Although Xiao Jiu's ability to matchmaking is unquestionable, after all, in ancient times, he still wants to know what method matchmakers generally used in ancient times to talk about matchmakers.
"This ......" Steward Wu stroked it and replied: "In the past two years, there have been a lot of matchmakers invited by the master, and the marriage girls recommended by the matchmakers are also good. At the beginning, the eldest young master chatted with those matchmakers in order to cater to the master, but within a few days, those matchmakers all shook their heads and left without even asking for money. When the matchmaker who was invited later, she could see the eldest young master, but she couldn't open the eldest young master's mouth at all, and the matchmakers all gave up. ”
In a word, Jiang Heng is extremely resistant to the media, but no one knows the real reason.
Xiao Jiu raised his eyebrows, it seems that this ancient matchmaker is nothing more than that, thinking if there will be any special method, but he didn't expect that he would only use his mouth.
At first, Xiao Jiu was indifferent to this lonely and cold Jiang Heng, but after listening to it so much, he suddenly became a little interested in this man.

After staying in Jiang's Mansion for almost three hours and having lunch, Jiang Heng finally came back when the sun was about to set. At this moment, it was almost the time for dinner, after all, after making the family wait all day, the Jiang Mansion naturally still had to leave Xiao Jiu for dinner.
At the dinner table, Xiao Jiu shared a table of people from the Xiao family to eat, and everyone else was very polite and enthusiastic, but the protagonist Jiang Heng was eating by himself silently, as if Xiao Jiu was not in the air.
Although Xiao Jiu was talking to the rest of the Jiang family, his eyes would glance at Jiang Heng from time to time, paying attention to Jiang Heng's every move.
Of course, the Jiang family sitting at the table could see it clearly, but Jiang Heng had been so temperamental for many years, and it was not something they could say when they opened their mouths to let Jiang Heng speak, and this meeting was indeed a little embarrassing.
As the head of the house, Master Jiang had no choice but to say to Jiang Heng: "Heng'er, this Jiuniang has been waiting for you for a day, how can you say that she is also a guest, why don't you say hello?" ”
When the words fell, the people eating at the table all paused, and looked at Jiang Heng in unison.
Jiang Heng gave Xiao Jiu the feeling that no one should enter, but after Master Jiang finished speaking, Jiang Heng only cooperated and said perfunctorily, "It's troublesome." ”
It was only three words, but Jiang Heng didn't even raise his head, and he didn't even glance at Xiao Jiu.
This kind of behavior has never been encountered by Xiao Jiu since he engaged in matchmaking in his previous life, and it can really be regarded as very impolite.
She furrowed her eyebrows, a little dissatisfied with Jiang Heng's blunt attitude towards the guests.
"Master Jiang, my name is Xiao Jiuniang, you can call me Jiuniang. I believe you also know why I came to the Jiang family, I hope you can be free tomorrow, Jiuniang wants to talk to you. Xiao Jiu endured the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said to Jiang Heng with a professional smile and a good voice.
There should be so many people at the table, Jiang Heng also continued to reply perfunctorily: "Maybe it's not free." ”
With this said, he can end the topic when he returns, and at this moment, Xiao Jiu seems to be able to understand why the matchmakers that the Jiang family had invited before left automatically.
This kind of unpleasant sentence can choke on the life of the dead, and the average person who likes to do it.
"You are taking care of the Jiang family's business, let Master Jiang give you a day off tomorrow and talk to me, Jiuniang thinks you are still free." That's if ordinary people don't like to do it, they won't do it, how can Xiao Jiu admit that he is an ordinary person.
When the words fell, Jiang Heng was silent, and after a while, he only replied with two words: "I don't want to." ”
"Heng'er!" Finally, Master Jiang couldn't stand it anymore, and said sternly to Jiang Heng: "You can't listen to persuasion, for the sake of the old man and me at such an age, let the old man not worry about it, let the old man and I really settle down?" ”
Jiang Heng put down the dishes and chopsticks, there was no wave on his face, and he raised his eyes to look at Master Jiang, "Dad, I don't need you to worry about it, I will help you take care of Jiang's mansion." ”
"Dad wants you to marry a daughter-in-law and have a grandson!" Master Jiang was a little excited when he spoke, and coughed.
The two concubines hurriedly stepped forward.
"At my father's age, look, which one is not full of children and grandchildren?" Between the words, you can see the disappointment and longing in Master Jiang's eyes.
Jiang Heng was finally silent, lowered his head and sighed, "Dad is tired, rest early, my son will go back to the house first." ”
When the words fell, he really left the table directly.
Xiao Jiu saw it in his eyes and was extremely anxious. said "I'm also full", and then hurriedly left the table and ran to catch up with Jiang Heng.
"Hey! You stop! ”
Xiao Jiu panted and chased to the door of Jiang Heng's study and stopped him from entering the house.
"I really want to talk to you, we can not talk about marriage for now." Xiao Jiu looked up at Jiang Heng, his eyes full of sincerity.
Jiang Heng looked at Xiao Jiu, "It's brave to be a matchmaker at such a young age." ”
"Who said you can't talk about matchmaking when you're young? Don't you understand the truth of being a champion?! I'll just ask you, would you like to talk to me? Xiao Jiu didn't pursue Jiang Heng and looked down on him, he just wanted him to promise himself today.
"I don't want to."
Who knew that in the next second, the three-word answer was stiff and choked Xiao Jiu to death.
Xiao Jiu bit his lip angrily, and kept telling himself in his heart: Everything is difficult at the beginning, and patience will pass!
"You see that you are twenty years old, as the eldest son of the Jiang Mansion and the primary heir in the future, the so-called filial piety comes first, and it is a great unfilial piety to breed without a family! I don't believe you don't understand such a basic truth. Xiao Jiu said very seriously, "Do you think it will be useful for you to take care of this Jiang Mansion all your life?" Why don't you want to think about your lost mother? She definitely doesn't want to see you like you now! ”
It seemed that there was something that should not be mentioned, and Jiang Heng's complexion changed significantly.
"My business, it's not your turn to be a matchmaker to guide me." Jiang Heng was not angry, but his tone was so stiff that it made people even more breathless.
"What's wrong with the media! As long as it's right, everyone can say it! It's your business whether you listen or not. Xiao Jiu was born with a stubborn temperament, and the more difficult it seemed to be for Jiang Heng, the more she wanted to do it, "I have to say that your surname is Jiang, which represents the face of the Jiang family, but the rumors outside spread, I don't believe you haven't heard of it at all, could it be that you Jiang Heng really doesn't like women?" ”
I thought that Jiang Heng would refute, but I didn't expect him to be silent at this moment.
When Xiao Jiu saw the love, his heart suddenly chuckled, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, "Could it be that you really like men...?" ”
"Is it all over? Please get out of the way. ”
"Really? Although I don't reject broken sleeves, but you are the eldest son of the Jiang Mansion, this can't be passed on, can't be said......" Although Xiao Jiu said this, it seemed that he was deliberately pestering Jiang Heng for something, "If you really like men, it's not impossible, but the inheritance is unbreakable, I think you have to find a woman to have a child no matter what, right?" ”
"Tomorrow afternoon, Xinghualou."
Without waiting for Xiao Jiu to continue, Jiang Heng actually relented and compromised!
This caught Xiao Jiu off guard, but he was very happy.
"Good! Good! Good! ”
After letting Jiang Heng enter the study, Xiao Jiu found Master Jiang again and told him to persuade Jiang Heng to talk to her.
"Jiuniang, thank you so much!" For so long, Master Jiang finally saw a glimmer of hope, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, and he sighed: "My health is getting worse and worse, I really hope to see my son Jiang Heng marry a wife and have children as soon as possible, as long as I follow three virtues and four virtues, no matter what kind of daughter-in-law, as long as my son accepts, the old man and I will get my wish." ”
Xiao Jiu could hear Master Jiang's desire, and his heart was inexplicably distressed.
"Don't worry, Master Jiang, I, Xiao Jiuniang, will definitely help you achieve your wish!"

Early in the morning of the second day, Xiao Jiu followed the guidance of his neighbors and groped for it, and before noon, he went to Xinghualou to sit down and wait for Jiang Heng.
At a moment in the afternoon, a tall and familiar figure walked in from outside the door, and Xiao Jiu waved his hand to Jiang Heng.
Later, Jiang Heng bought a private room, and the two moved to the second floor.
"It's really not easy, I'm afraid you won't come today." Xiao Jiu cautiously glanced at Jiang Heng, and saw that his face was still the same, still so indifferent.
She was lame, leaning back in the chair with her arms crossed, "It's not that I said, you have a cold face every day, even if you like men, no man wants to be with you, right?" ”
"Still making fun of me?" Jiang Heng opened his mouth and snorted coldly, "Yesterday was so brutal, didn't you just want to talk to me alone, and now that I have fulfilled your wishes, don't you cherish it?" ”
"I don't believe that the previous matchmaker was not difficult, why did Prince Jiang obey me?" This is something she is curious about.
"They have never been so blunt as you, and they only speak hypocritical things to persuade each other, and I am even more annoyed to hear them."
When Xiao Jiu heard this, he was stunned, and suddenly burst into laughter.
I thought, dare to love this thing likes to listen to straight words, this is counting... Is it cheap? Ha ha.
