Chapter Seventy-Four: Sassy
Zhou Ang was really taken aback.
Whether it is the memories left by his predecessor, or what he has seen and heard since he crossed over, the world style of this era is different from the ancient institutions and customs in the pitiful little historical knowledge in his head, at least there is no woman who must not go out of the door and the like.
But know that this is ancient after all!
In this world, the status of women is actually not low, but in terms of the whole society, it is still absolutely lower than the men who control the whole world - it is true that girls have more autonomy and social rights, but they must obey their parents when they are at home, and after marriage, they can basically be regarded as attached to their husband's family.
Although there is no rule of the so-called "three from four virtues" to educate girls, the basic production activities and material distribution methods of the whole society are determined, which is the current mainstream ecology.
Therefore, it is absolutely astonishing for a girl to run away from home in the middle of the night.
She chose to sneak away to her sister's house, even if it was just a cousin - which was a way to save some negative points, but after running out, she actually asked to see a man she had never met, which was absolutely ...... Well, at least in this day and age, let alone appreciation, few people will not criticize this practice.
Zhou Ang was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he suddenly felt quite big.
From the bottom of his heart, he doesn't think it's a big deal for a girl to run away from home, and in modern society, this is a fart, but in the current world, this is very problematic.
The biggest problem is that the person she wants to meet is actually herself!
And...... As soon as he heard that she had run out, Zhou Ang intuitively and quickly guessed the possible cause of this incident.
It seems that the Lu family siblings and the Du family have reached an agreement? The Du family has agreed to send Miss Du to the Lu family to be the daughter of the old lady of the Lu family, or to be a concubine for that Lu Xun?
It's probably the latter.
Then she ran out and actually wanted to see herself directly...... What is it to do?
Turning his head to look at Jiang Yun Jiang Bodao, he, an honest man, is now sweating in a hurry, "Zixiu, I can only come to you, I know you are very embarrassed, I don't know whether to lead you to see her, not to lead you there, my wife and sister are afraid that they will be annoyed, and they don't know what more embarrassing things they will do...... When asked in the future, how can I explain to the Du family!"
"But the matter ...... I really don't have an idea about this, and I can only come to you to get an idea!"
Zhou Ang pursed his lips for a moment and asked him, "Why did she come to your house, did she say it?"
Jiang Yun said: "No." No matter how much she asked, she just wouldn't say. Say it's waiting for you to go, and she'll tell you!"
Zhou Ang pursed his lips and did not speak.
In fact, after vaguely guessing the reason why the girl ran away, with Zhou Ang's cleverness, many things were quickly straightened out in his mind - the other party ran to Jiang Bodao's house, and tried his best to force Jiang Bodao to come to him and ask to see him, what the meaning behind this matter is not too difficult to guess.
Is it big? a little.
I'm completely inexperienced in dealing with this kind of thing!
But in addition to a big head, distress and irritability...... I was faintly a little happy?
Is this for the hair?
Apparently it wasn't just because a girl actually came to him on her own initiative - at least for the moment, it was definitely a fright, a trouble, not a surprise.
At this moment, what makes Zhou Ang's heart inexplicably cool is that - doesn't your Du family look down on me? I'm so innocent of white people, and I can be regarded as a person who eats imperial grain, you can't look down on it, and now I have to send my daughter to someone else's concubine to tie up others, but now, is it a slap in the face?
You're shameless, but the girls themselves don't have the consciousness to be gifts!
And she ran away from home and actually came to me!
To put it highly, this is the awakening of women's consciousness of resistance!
Oh, it's cool!
But no matter how cool your heart is, it can't change the essence of this troublesome thing.
Just now that girls want to see themselves, it is a dilemma - to meet, obviously the truth, private meeting with the eldest girl who has not been out of the cabinet, this is not a good reputation, for girls and for themselves, it is the same, and although the Du family is wagging its tail at the Lu family, it does not mean that the Du family is no longer worth mentioning, after all, people did have a certain amount of capital to look down on themselves as ordinary small civil servants.
In terms of Du's local prestige, in-laws, interpersonal networks, etc., going to meet other people's young ladies by themselves has damaged their reputations, and they have only offended each other in vain, even if they may not be able to threaten themselves in substance, but it will definitely not bring any good results.
One more enemy is always an enemy.
But...... Don't you want to see it?
Then the result can be imagined, even if this girl can escape, she can only hide for a while, even if it is just from Jiang Yun's point of view, he will not allow his wife and sister who have not left the cabinet to hide in his house for a long time - once the case is solved, he and his wife's maiden family will become mortal enemies.
Therefore, it doesn't matter if the girl wants to or not, as long as she doesn't interfere, she will soon be found, taken home, and imprisoned, and in all probability, whether she wants to or not, she will still be sent to Zhanzhou Lu according to the original plan...... Du Shi and Lu Shi will still shoot at a time.
Under the joint action of such two big families, the power of a little girl is insignificant, the thoughts of a little girl, no one cares, and the joys and sorrows of a little girl are as humble as dust.
Zhou Ang exhaled slowly...... O Duch!
The conundrum is in Duch!
And no one knows if the Zhanzhou Lu clan will be mixed in in the future.
But think about it again at this time...... What about the Du family? Even if the Lu family gets involved, what can it do?
Not to mention that I had just worshiped the teacher the day before yesterday, and the teacher himself said that if you encounter any danger, you can seek his help, just say that you are also an eighth-order cultivator!
And after all, he is also an official identity!
No matter how good you are, you are just a small local landlord!
I'm afraid of you!
Besides, it was your daughter who took the initiative to ask to see me, and it wasn't me who hooked up with her!
And although there is some speculation, before actually meeting, who knows what she means by seeing herself?
Let's go see it first!
These many thoughts and ideas in Zhou Ang's heart are complicated, but in fact, at the moment, it is nothing more than Jiang Yun chattering there after being frightened, and Zhou Ang has been listening to him say that he has been muttering for a while - suddenly at a certain moment, he said: "This girl is also interesting!"
He smiled and said to Jiang Yun: "Let me be a little impressed!"
Jiang Yun was stunned, and after a moment, he said, "What do you mean by that......"
"Go, go, let me go home and change my clothes, and I'll go with you!"
............
Zhou Ang quickly changed his coat and came out again, Jiang Yun's carriage stopped at the mouth of the alley, the two walked out of the alley, and soon got into the carriage, the coachman of the Jiang family flicked his whip, the carriage ran with a click, and soon arrived at the Jiang family's house.
The two got out of the car, Jiang Yun let Zhou Ang to the hall, but he ran to the backyard to communicate first, and after a while, he came out with his wife, with a bitter face, and said, "Zixiu, you go to the backyard with my wife!"
So Zhou Ang got up angrily.
Jiang Bodao's wife took Zhou Ang into the backyard, and the maids and daughters-in-law had already been sent to the front yard, and the backyard was empty at the moment. Jiang Bodao's wife pointed to the door of a house in the West Wing and said, "His uncle should go in by himself......! I'm out there for you. ”
How aggrieved is how aggrieved this is.
Obviously, although he still did this, Jiang Dushi was caught in this matter, and the situation was also quite uncomfortable.
In fact, one of the reasons why Zhou Ang finally decided to come over to see the girl from the Du family was that he found that this girl ran out in a hurry and actually ate Jiang Yun to death!
She, a girl who is supposed to live in the boudoir, not only knows clearly where the Jiang family lives, but also runs out in the middle of the night and finds it accurately - even if she finds it, she comes in the middle of the night, and the Jiang family can completely settle her down and detain her while sending someone to the Du family to report the news.
Doing so, of course, will offend the girls a lot, but first, this is human nature, they just stand on the right side, in fact, blameless, and second, in fact, the two of them will be basically removed from this troublesome matter.
But they didn't.
On the contrary, they made a very brave decision - Jiang Yun ran to find him.
Jiang Yun himself definitely doesn't have this courage, he is just a sincere person, and the panic when he saw him just now has clearly explained this. And his wife is by no means such a decisive and courageous figure.
Therefore, there can only be one reason, that is, the girl who is waiting to see her in the west wing of the Jiang family's backyard at the moment has an extraordinary deterrent or persuasive power.
Smack!
Zhou Ang tapped the door softly three times.
"Come in!"
The sound is crisp and pleasant.
Zhou Ang pushed the door in, and the sunlight filled the room.
A girl in a red skirt was walking over, as if she was about to open the door, and immediately paused there, not daring to move, while the other girl who was sitting on the chair was just stunned for a moment, and then stood up generously, a pair of bright eyes looked directly at Zhou Ang without avoidance, and said, "Are you the Zhou Sheng who asked my sister and brother-in-law to go to the house to propose marriage?"
This girl was born delicately and elegantly, with picturesque eyebrows.
At this moment, the door opened, and it was about seven or eight o'clock in the morning, and the sun just shrouded her whole body in a reddish halo, and she looked more and more beautiful.
Shan Chong's top-notch appearance and graceful figure are absolutely worthy of the set of words that Jiang Yun praised in front of him at the beginning, not to mention that she is obviously doing a rather crazy thing at the moment, but she is calm and relaxed, facing a man she has never met, she asks when she opens her mouth, but not only is she not frivolous at all, but she is not ashamed of herself at all.
On the contrary, it is somewhat sharp.
Zhou Ang smiled, bowed his hand, and said, "Xiao Ke is Zhou Ang." ”
The girl nodded slowly, and said generously: "Zhou Sheng is really a talent, and he can be my good son-in-law." I heard that Zhou Sheng was working in the county Zhu Yamen, I don't know if I have enough courage?"
Zhou Ang laughed when he heard this.
This girl...... It's so serious and cute.
It is sharp enough to be pretty.
However, Zhou Ang understood her current situation very well, so instead of laughing, he looked at her with burning eyes, and asked very seriously: "What does the girl mean ......?"
The girl immediately responded: "If Zhou Sheng has no arrogance in his chest, there is no need to ask for marriage anymore, he can marry me and go home today!
That's a ...... It's cool!
Rao is Zhou Ang had vaguely guessed the reason why she ran out in the middle of the night, and roughly guessed the purpose for her to force Jiang Yun to find herself, but at the moment, she couldn't say three words when they met, and it still made Zhou Ang a little surprised to hear her say this so simply and decisively.
This girl, of course, was forced to be anxious.
But even if they are forced to be in a hurry, in this day and age, how many girls dare to do such a thing?
At this moment, no matter what complicated emotions Zhou Ang had in his heart before he came, all of them converged or disappeared here, he subconsciously adjusted his mentality and calmed down.
Regardless of her appearance or speech, Zhou Ang really admired her a little at this time, and even faintly felt that she had a "modern atmosphere" that is rarely seen in girls of this era.
Now, a girl in other people is so down-to-earth and generous, talking to you about marriage in person, at this time, in Zhou Ang's view, even if it is just out of the minimum respect for the other party, it should neither play the mentality, nor should it be dealt with hastily.
Not to mention, Zhou Ang really has a little heart now.
If you really marry her home now and have a wedding that you can do, Zhou Ang has no opinion, and he doesn't care what the world will think, but ...... But I'm afraid that my mother Zhou Cai's will have a big opinion.
If you really nod your head and say yes, what is it called?
It's called prostitution.
This kind of marriage is not tolerated by the times, in terms of big families, expulsion from the family is already light, and in small families, it is bound to be severed in the relationship - you are not ashamed, but your father and mother can't afford to lose this person!
And normally speaking, both of them will be despised by the whole society for a lifetime.
At this time, Zhou Ang calmly thought for a moment, and did not ask the reason, but said seriously: "I am not afraid of your father, and I am not afraid of your Du clan, but ...... Girl, you can't help but be a little self-conscious!"
When the girl heard this, she immediately said, "The worldly discussion, is it enough to trouble me?"
After a pause, she said, "Actually trapped Zhou Shenghu?"
Zhou Ang couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
Girl...... You're a little too sharp!
No matter how good the agitation method is, you can't use it all the time!
