Chapter 11: The Meng Family

Uncle Jiang said coldly, "Pity the girl, don't be smart but be mistaken by being smart." There are some words that are not something that the younger generation can talk about. ”

The old lady also said angrily, "My second son is a filial son, a friendly brother, and he is definitely willing to let his mother's family live a good life." He saved the Meng family and lost his life, he died at a young age, the Meng family wants to compensate, how could your father not want to? ”

Jiang Yi said with regret, "The compensation that the Chengguo Mansion wants to give, the old Guogong has already given." Moreover, the only people who really want to compensate are Lao Guogong and Meng Shizi, and they don't care about anything now. When the family members Cheng Guogong and Mrs. Meng really want to compensate, can I stop it? I said my words, not only to clarify the misunderstanding that I want to climb the high branches, but also to make others look down on our family. ”

The old lady and Uncle Jiang glanced at each other, this is true.

Uncle Jiang got up and said, "Mother, I'll go to the front yard to make arrangements." ”

The girl is right, if you put that sentence out, your reputation will not only not be reduced, but it will also be looked down upon, and you will not have a good word for it.

The old lady's face softened slightly. He also said, "Sorry girl, although the matter is settled, it seems to be more complete than expected." But you and Meng Sangongzi did fall into the water together, and you were seen by so many people, it is true that your reputation has been damaged, and you still have to go to Zhuangzi to avoid it. Rest assured, what you eat will not be treated badly. Today is March 28th, you have to pack up, and then let people go to Zhuangzi to prepare, just go on the third day of the fourth month. ”

Jiang Yixi bowed his knees and thanked him, and said, "Grandmother, I want to go to Huzhuang left by my mother." ”

The old lady sank her face, "Your mother is the daughter of a petty official, and the total dowry is only one house, five hundred acres of land, five hundred taels of silver, a few ornaments, and a few jewelry." Those things are accounted for and recorded, and I want to give them to you and Xun'er when you get married......"

The old lady thought that Jiang Yixi was begging for the dowry left by the Hu family. No matter how she is also Mrs. Bofu, she was born in the Hou Mansion, how could she be greedy for her daughter-in-law's dowry, not to mention the pitiful dowry of the Hu family.

Jiang Yixi hurriedly explained, "Grandmother misunderstood. My granddaughter accidentally fell into the water, my uncle accidentally fell, and my father had that dream again, and I always had no peace in my heart. When I went to Zhuangzi, I would copy the scriptures every day, and I would often go to worship the Buddha, asking the Buddha to bless my grandmother with a long life and bless our Jiang family with eternal prosperity. I don't have a girl's family to go to the temple too far away, and I heard Mama Wu say that Huzhuang is not far from Zhaoming Nunnery, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to walk. ”

The old lady's eyes immediately softened when she looked at Jiang Yixi. She also went to Zhaoming Nunnery to incense, which was the largest nunnery in the Jin and He Dynasty, and the incense was extremely fragrant.

She beckoned and smiled, "Good boy, sit next to Grandmother." He took Jiang Yixi's hand again and said, "It's a sensible good boy, it's hard for you to think of this step for your grandmother and family at a young age." ”

Jiang Yi said with pity, "I am also a member of this family, my grandmother and the family are good, and our reliance will be strong." ”

The old lady nodded again and again, "Yes, yes." You go, and when the limelight is over, grandmother will have someone take you back. You have two taels of silver every month in the house, and you have to pay for your own food in Zhuangzi, and I will ask the eldest daughter-in-law to add three taels and send it to you every month. Grandmother will send another fifty taels of silver, you are a girl from Bofu, you can't be wronged. ”

Jiang Yixi stood up and bowed his knees to thank him. complained in his heart, because of Jiang Chen's death, the Chengguo Mansion sent the old lady five thousand taels of silver, and sent her away for just fifty taels of silver.

However, being able to go to Huzhuang as you wish is a victory.

Not long after, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang led the three girls to Ruyi Hall. Seeing Jiang Yixi being so affectionate with the old lady, everyone was stunned.

They had already heard that Cheng Guogong and his wife had come to ask for marriage, but Mrs. Jiang, Uncle Jiang, and Jiang Yixi all refused.

Uncle Jiang told Mrs. Jiang about the benefits of refusing marriage to the family, and Mrs. Jiang relayed the benefits of refusing marriage to these people.

Everyone thought that this was a wise decision by the uncle and the old lady, and even Jiang Yixi's refusal was due to their instructions. Jiang Chen's dream to Jiang Yi is a top secret that only a few people know.

This matter was successfully resolved, and everyone was very happy, only Jiang Yiyan felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratch. Jiang Yixi couldn't compare to herself, just because she grabbed Meng Sangongzi, the Chengguo Mansion came to ask for marriage. Fortunately, my grandmother and father refused, if I really let her marry Meng Sangongzi, it would be unreasonable......

In the Fu'an Hall of the Chengguo Mansion, the old prince and the old lady were arguing.

The old lady looked very depressed, "I still think that the old man should not force the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law to go to the Jiang family to ask for marriage." ”

Chengguo said fairly, "I am ashamed of General Jiang, his descendants are only capable of Jiang Chen, I took it out but didn't bring it back, Jiang Chen still died for saving my grandson." Jiang Chen died, not only a son of the Jiang family, but the entire Jiang family.

"Alas, after retiring from Cimo, I had the intention of telling Jiang Chen's daughter to Cimo. But later, I was afraid that Cimo's eyes would be completely blind, and I wronged Miss Jiang. happened to be the incident, and married the little girl Jiang into the Meng family, taking care of Jiang Chen's descendants at the same time, and also helping the Jiang family. ”

The old lady said disapprovingly, "Cimo is so good, even if he is blind, he is worthy of any good girl." What does it mean to be 'just right'? Don't say this to the old man, so that the eldest daughter-in-law and Ci Yu will be sad to hear it.

"Ci Yu is excellent, his vision is high, and it is enough to be relied on by others, and he has to let him marry her. The two have become resentful couples, not only is Yu Yu painful, but Miss Jiang will not be happy. ”

The old man waved his big hand like a fan, "Ci Yu is my grandson, and I also hope that he will have a good life." Jiang Chen is a good boy, and his daughter will not be wrong. When Miss Jiang was knocked into the lake, she must have pulled Ci Yu in a hurry, which is a normal reaction of people. ”

Mrs. Meng shook her head and said, "A mother gave birth to nine sons, and the nine sons are different, so you can't talk too much." The old Wu Xiangbo was a very capable person, and his sons and grandsons gave birth to so many, except for Jiang Chen, the others were all waste. What's more, Miss Jiang's mother died when she was two years old, and the girl's family has no mother to teach, which is always inappropriate. ”

"She's still young, you and your eldest daughter-in-law teach her more when you enter the door. The roots are there, and it won't be bad. After a long time, the young couple will naturally have feelings after getting along for a long time. When we first got married, we didn't even see each other, and we haven't been in love for most of our lives......"

Mrs. Meng hurriedly intercepted his words and said angrily, "You are so old, what do you say, and you are not afraid that the younger generation will hear the joke." ”

While the two were talking, Cheng Guogong and Mrs. Meng came back.

When they heard that the Jiang family and the second girl Jiang were unwilling, they didn't believe it.

Lao Guogong yelled at Cheng Guogong with big eyes, "Say, are you putting on a stinky face to let them see that you are unwilling?" Lao Tzu has been saying that Jiang Chen lost his life to save Cimo, and we must treat his descendants well. ”
