Chapter 309: First Birthday Banquet
Zheng Tingting's eyes were red, and she was silent for a while before she said the reason.
"That person made Tongfang pregnant, and secretly let Tongfang hide from Zhuangzi to give birth. My eldest brother inadvertently found out about this, and my family was very angry, so my father and mother went to his father and mother to comment. His father and mother only found out about this and forced Tongfang to have a miscarriage...... I don't want to marry someone who has a sweetheart, even if he likes a girl, I don't want to. β
She glanced at Jiang Yixi, and said, "I like the way Brother Meng and my sister-in-law get along, and I also like a self-disciplined man like my eldest brother." I hate little women, my father's little women, I get annoyed when I see them. β
She is still embarrassed to say that Uncle Ji and her sister-in-law have been in pain all their lives, she can see it clearly, and she has not listened to her parents' discussions behind her back, she doesn't want to live that kind of life.
"That person" refers to her fiancΓ©, Li Rao, the second son of the Marquis of Changning.
Jiang Yixi frowned and said, "Second Prince Li still wants Tongfang to have an eldest son?" It's not authentic. This kind of person not only pretends to be someone else in his heart, but also can't figure it out, and he is not a good person. β
Li Zhenbao was even more indignant, "Don't marry that kind of scumbag, you will suffer if you marry in the past." Divorce, find a way to get out of marriage. β
Zheng Tingting said, "I also want to get out of the marriage, but my father and mother are unwilling, saying that I am old, and it is not easy to find good relatives after quitting." If I still withdraw from the marriage for this reason, others will say that I am a jealous woman, and it is even more difficult to say that I am a relative. β
Li Zhenbao asked, "Zheng Yu thinks the same way?" β
Zheng Tingting said, "My eldest brother didn't have this kind of thought, and he went to beat that person." β
Li Zhenbao's nervous expression relaxed, and he smiled, "Zheng Yu played well." The next time I see that person, I'll be angry for Sister Zheng. β
Zheng Tingting didn't see Li Zhenbao's expression change, Jiang Yixi on the same bed saw it really well.
Li Zhenbao said again, "You are only sixteen years old this year, where are you old?" Look at Sister Cui, she is seventeen, that incident is even more troublesome, and she hasn't found a golden beetle son-in-law like my eldest brother. β
Jiang Yixi and Zheng Tingting glanced at each other, in terms of lust, your eldest brother is really not a good candidate, but you don't know.
Both of them were clever not to get through.
Jiang Yi said regretfully, "What's the use of beating him, you have to find a way to get out of your family." Your parents don't agree, talk to the eldest princess. β
Zheng Tingting shook her head and sighed, "Grandmother won't help me." In the eyes of the elders, it is okay for a man to have more women, and it is not virtuous for a woman to be unhappy. β
Jiang Yi said regretfully, "Most people will think so, but the eldest princess will not. She must think that it is okay for her children and grandchildren to have more women, but she definitely does not want her man and her granddaughter's man to have more women. β
In her eyes, the eldest princess of Yichang is such a person.
Li Zhenbao said, "Second Sister Jiang is right, most people have double standards, and strong people have double standards. Sister Zheng told the eldest princess that if she didn't help, when I got out of the nunnery, I would tell the imperial aunt and grandmother. β
A smile appeared on Zheng Tingting's face, "Okay." β
Jiang Yixi silently recited the word "double standard". Double standard, that is, double standard, is a good word.
After dinner the next day, bidding farewell to Li Zhenbao, Jiang Yixi and Zheng Tingting returned to the capital.
As soon as Jiang Yixi arrived at Fushengju, he heard that Grandma Meng Er had a seizure in the morning.
The midwife said that Meng Er's grandmother's pelvis is narrow, which is not conducive to giving birth to a child, and this fetus is very difficult to give birth to like the previous one. The last time I had a heavy hemorrhage, it took a few years to recuperate, and this time it was the same again.
She gave birth for two days and two nights, and finally gave birth to a son on the morning of the fourth day of the new year.
The child was named Meng Zhaoyi.
The midwife said that it was impossible for Grandma Meng to get pregnant again.
Although she could not have any more children, she already had two sons, and the elders were happy.
The milk doll is very good-looking, white and chubby, with seven pounds and two taels.
On April 12, Jiang Yirou got married.
Jiang Yixi couldn't add makeup or drink wedding wine because she was pregnant.
This sister Jiang Yixi has always liked it, so she asked Mama Wu and Shui Ling to add two makeup satins and a pair of red gold dragon and phoenix bracelets on her behalf.
April 17 is Meng Zhaocun's first birthday, and the Meng family holds a big first birthday banquet.
It rained the night before, and the sound of ticking made Jiang Yi's heart tense, for fear that the next day's birthday banquet would be poured out by the rain.
Fortunately, the rain stopped in the early morning, and the sky was washed clear and clean by the rain, and there was not even a trace of floating clouds.
On this day, the royal relatives, the nouveau riche of the family, relatives and friends, those who were invited but not invited, those who should have come and those who should not have come, all came.
Princess Pingwang Heping and her eldest son Li Dang came, and the eldest princess of Yichang and Zheng Lao Ma also came with Xie, Zheng Tingting, and Zheng Yu.
The most disgusting thing is that King Wen actually came with King Yong's family again.
He didn't see his face in the outer courtyard, and Princess Wen and Li Jiao came to the inner courtyard.
Jiang Yixi hated King Wen no matter how much he hated him, and he couldn't dislike Li Jiao.
Mrs. Meng is not in good health, Chengguo has no daughter-in-law, the third lady is widowed, Meng Er's grandmother is confined, the second lady is dissatisfied with Meng Cimo and his wife's consumption and sabotage, the girls are only suitable for entertaining girls, only the big-bellied Jiang Yixi is full of energy to greet female guests, for fear that any distinguished guest will not entertain people well.
Xie Shi saw that Jiang Yixi was too busy, so he didn't treat himself as an outsider, and pulled Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang San to help entertain guests, and Jiang Yixi was very grateful.
Old Madam Jiang was dazzled, and she almost didn't say anything about these nobles. Today, because she is Grandma Meng's maiden grandmother, all the guests are courteous to her, which makes her extremely happy.
Mrs. Meng sent someone to invite the eldest princess of Yichang, the princess of Laoqingjun, Mrs. Cui and several other old feudal lords to Fu'an Hall.
When Mrs. Jiang saw that she didn't invite her old in-laws, a trace of indignation slipped across her face.
Seeing that Jiang Yi had no one around her, she went over and whispered, "Sorry girl, I am your sister-in-law's own grandmother, and Mrs. Meng must not have known that I was also here, so she didn't invite me over." You asked me to send me to Fu'an Hall, and the old woman had nothing to say to these young people. β
Mrs. Meng is not a person who praises the high and the low, she knows that Mrs. Jiang has been mistreating Jiang because of money, and she has always disliked her.
Jiang Yixi didn't want Mrs. Jiang to go over, she was too stubborn, but she was embarrassed.
whispered, "She may have heard that grandmother likes to listen to operas, so she didn't invite you." My uncle knew that my grandmother liked to listen to the Huichun opera troupe, so he specially invited the Huichun opera troupe, and several famous actors were invited. β
He also beckoned Jiang Yirou to come over and help the old lady to go to the back hall of the flower hall to listen to the play, and asked her to take good care of people.
"Catch the week" before dinner.
Many female guests came around, and Lao Guogong and Meng Cimo also brought a few male relatives over, including King Ping, Zheng Yu, Qu Xiu and others, and King Wen pulled Li Kai to follow.
Qu Xiu is the eldest son of Uncle Qu, twenty-two years old, who has already been lifted and will participate in next year's Spring Festival. He nominally made a special trip from Wucheng to attend Meng Zhaocun's birthday banquet, but he had other tasks in private. I came here a few days ago and have been living in Meng's house.
