Jiang Zhiming raised his eyes to look at Tao in front of him, and saw that Tao also turned his eyes and looked at himself, with a look of hatred on his face, but he still said bluntly.

"Mother, since the son has pretended to be the third girl of the Gu family in his heart, he must marry her back to the house. My son doesn't want to marry anyone else except her in this life, I hope you can fulfill your son! ”

Tao turned his heart sideways, and didn't look at Jiang Zhiming in front of him anymore, but instructed his mother beside him: "Mother Xiang, send my brother back to the Hou Mansion, watch it firmly, don't let anything happen to my brother." If something happens to my brother, I'll be the first to ask you! ”

Xiang's mother is Tao's person after all, so she can only follow Tao's orders and personally send Jiang Zhiming out of Tao's hospitality room.

sent Jiang Zhiming to the porch, and retired the maid who was waiting beside him to his mother, so he dared to persuade him.

"Brother, my wife doesn't like the three girls of the Gu family in my heart, if I want my wife to marry the three girls of the Gu family, I am afraid that it will take a lot of effort.

Brother should go back to the Hou Mansion first, and talk about this matter in front of the old lady, after all, you were brought up by the old lady herself, and her old man must be thinking about her brother in her heart, and she will definitely decide on the marriage with the girl of the Gu family for the sake of her brother. ”

Jiang Zhiming glanced back at the room where Tao was located, then quickly turned his head, looked at Xiang's mother in front of him, and said lightly.

"Zhiming thanks Xiang Mom for his kindness, but Zhiming also wants to ask Xiang Mom to say a few more good words about the Gu family girl by her mother's side, and persuade her mother a few more words."

"Brother, it's not that you don't know, if Mrs. really doesn't want my brother to marry the Gu girl, I'm afraid that no matter how many good things the old slave says for the Gu girl, the wife won't listen to it. However, the old slave will definitely help his brother say a few more words for his brother's lifelong event. ”

After talking to his mother, he called out to the maid who was waiting behind him, and was about to send Jiang Zhiming out of the yard.

Freely under the winding corridor, Jiang Zhiming sent away the maid who sent him to show the way, and Ah Liang followed closely behind him, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

"Childe, where should we go now? Do you go to Tao Mansion to ask Old Lady Tao, or go back to Hou Mansion and ask the old lady to make decisions for the son, and help the son go to the Gu family to set the marriage between the son and the Gu family?" Ah Liang looked at Jiang Zhiming a little wavering, and asked a special sentence to find out what Gongzi was thinking about now.

Jiang Zhiming sighed heavily, looked up at the sky, and saw that the sky was gradually darkening, go back at this moment, maybe grandmother has already started dinner, what if it disturbs grandmother's appetite because of this incident?

If you don't go back to the Hou Mansion, then you can only go to the Tao Mansion!

His grandfather and grandmother both felt sorry for him, but there was an eldest aunt in the Tao Mansion, and the eldest aunt had always been at odds with his mother. Jiang Zhiming risked being disliked by the eldest wife of the Tao family, but he still let the maid be put in a carriage and went in the direction of Tao's mansion.

Even if the eldest aunt doesn't want to see him, there are still grandfathers and grandmothers in the Tao Mansion, and the two old people will definitely treat him.

Jiang Zhiming sat in the carriage prepared by the girl, and before getting into the carriage, Ah Liang specially reminded him.

"Childe, are we going to Tao Mansion? If you let the wife know that it was the villain who took the son to Taofu, met the old lady, and begged the old lady to go to the Gu family to be a matchmaker, the wife blamed it, and she wanted to beat the villain to death! ”

Ah Liang's heart trembled, if Tao knew that he took Jiang Zhiming to Tao's mansion, if Tao was soft-hearted, maybe he could keep him, if Tao was ruthless, maybe he would be beaten to death and dragged out.

Looking at Ah Liang's worried look, Jiang Zhiming hurriedly persuaded: "Ah Liang, one person does things and one person does it." If my mother investigates me, I will say that I forced you to take me to Taofu, and then my mother will only blame me and will not implicate you. ”

Ah Liang heard Jiang Zhiming say this, and his heart settled down a little.

When he went to Tao Mansion, Jiang Zhiming didn't see the old lady Tao and Mrs. Tao he wanted to see, but met his eldest aunt, the eldest lady of the Tao family.

In the small hall of hospitality, Jiang Zhiming sat on a wooden chair with sour branches, and Mrs. Tao sat on the main seat, tasting the Ming Qian Longjing in her hand.

"Brother Zhiming, why did you think about coming over today? Didn't your mother come with you? ”

"Auntie, there is something going on at home, and my father left my mother to deal with things at home, and I didn't come with Zhiming. Approaching the end of the year, Zhiming knew that his grandfather was thinking about Zhiming, so he thought of coming over to see his old man, and let him take a look at me. Jiang Zhiming said calmly, and looked at the eldest lady of the Tao family in front of him with a faint smile.

"I see, I wanted to invite your mother to come over to the mansion a few days ago, but I heard that there are a lot of things in the Hou Mansion, and I thought that your mother would not come, so I didn't let people hand over the post. Your grandmother had a nightmare a few days ago, and today your grandfather and grandmother went to the temple in the city to make incense. ”

Dow's words were faint, not as intimate as meeting relatives, but rather a sense of alienation.

Grandmother had a nightmare? How could this be? My grandmother has always been physically tough, so why did she have nightmares?

Jiang Zhiming was worried about the two old men in his heart, and asked again.

"Auntie, when did my grandmother commit this nightmare, why didn't my aunt tell the maid to go to the Hou Mansion to report the news? Today, my grandfather accompanied my grandmother to incense, but my uncle could accompany me?"

Mrs. Tao listened to Jiang Zhiming's words, thinking that Jiang Zhiming was going to borrow this matter and scold her, so she said.

"Brother Zhiming, I have already called your uncle to follow, otherwise how can I rest assured that your grandfather will take your grandmother and mother to go by himself? And your grandmother was in a hurry this nightmare, and I was about to report to your mother when you came. It's better to know that Brother Ming brought the letter back to your mother and talked to her! ”

Jiang Zhiming knew that his eldest aunt was not an idle person, but he didn't expect her to climb down with his own words.

If he didn't come this time, he was afraid that she, the eldest aunt, would not kindly call the maid to go to the Hou Mansion to report the news.

My aunt and mother have always been at odds, so how could I give my mother such an opportunity to serve and fulfill my filial piety by my grandmother's side. If her mother doesn't come, she can take advantage of this matter in the future to make a big fuss, saying that her mother, as her own daughter, has no daughter-in-law who can serve the decoction in front of her grandmother and fulfill her filial piety.

Jiang Zhiming didn't want to continue to entangle with her, so he simply said: "Auntie, I don't know if my uncle said when you will send your grandfather and grandmother back?"

Mrs. Tao was slightly stunned, Jiang Zhiming, this kid, since he entered the door, he has not said his intention, and has been asking him where his grandfather and grandmother have gone, and when will he come back, could it be that he has something to ask for?

Jiang Zhiming, who has never set foot in Tao Mansion, must have something to ask for when he comes over at night.

As for what it was, she knew it when she tried it.

Mrs. Tao called out to the maid and handed over the teacup, resting it on the high table beside Jiang Zhiming, before replying: "Brother Zhiming, your uncle and your grandfather were in a hurry at the time, so I didn't ask him."

But looking at the time, it should be coming back soon, if you know that there is anything important about your brother, you might as well talk to your aunt first, and when your grandfather and grandmother come back, I will go to the two of them to meet before mentioning it. ”

Jiang Zhiming hesitated for a long time in his heart, when did the eldest aunt be so kind? She asked like this, just to try to set her own words and ask herself what she was doing this time.

Jiang Zhiming ignored her and said, "Since my grandfather and grandmother are coming back, I won't trouble my aunt." When my grandfather and grandmother returned, I would go to their homes and explain my intentions. ”

Jiang Zhiming finished speaking, and was about to sit down, when he heard a deep and powerful voice outside.

"I heard that my cousin is here, and he is staying in the living room, I wonder if it's true?"

Listening to the voice, Jiang Zhiming looked back and saw that he had not met for a long time, the only son of Mrs. Tao, the uncle of the Tao family.

Tao Ming is Jiang Zhiming's cousin, and he is also the most beloved grandson of the Tao family's old lady.

Because Tao Ming works in the grange outside all the year round, his face is dark, he wears a blue-gray Hangzhou silk gown, and the collar and cuffs are also embroidered with a few otherworldly lotus flowers and bamboo patterns, and the embroidery is very good, as if he specially invited the embroidery girl to embroider outside.
