Chapter III: Refusal of Marriage
My voice seemed a little overblown, and if she meant Broken, then I had nothing to say, after all, Brokenevil did have to come into contact with something unclean.
But feng shui is different, feng shui is looking for the dragon and the pulse is prosperous, and the family is prosperous, but it is not an evil way!
Jiang Zirou obviously didn't expect me to have such a big reaction, and was directly calmed by my tone.
Jiang Wuji captured the subtle key point in my words, that is, the five words 'I still know Feng Shui'!
I could tell from his expression that his heart was starting to beat faster at the moment.
The gaze that looked at me was no longer the same look at the juniors just now, but a little more respect.
Because there is only one person who can teach me Feng Shui, and that is my grandfather!
Jiang Zirou wanted to say something, but Jiang Wuji took the lead and said, "Desheng, you just said that you also know feng shui?
Jiang Zirou frowned, she didn't understand why her father believed in such a non-existent thing.
In her opinion, these are just feudal superstitions without scientific basis!
"Dad, how can you really believe it, hasn't the situation in our family been very good over the years?
Jiang Zirou's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was a little unhappy with Jiang Wuji's performance today.
Jiang Wuji said with a blank face: "What do children know? Our family's feng shui is depressed everywhere, and it is all done by the grandfather Yang Lao, if it weren't for Yang Lao, I wouldn't have what I have achieved today!"
Jiang Zirou said that she couldn't be an old-fashioned father, so she ran back to her room like a stuffy gourd.
She gave me a hard look before closing, stuck out her tongue at me, and grimaced.
I sighed, helpless.
Is this a grudge against me, or a tantrum in front of me?
Jiang Wuji asked me with a smile: "Desheng, you said that you understand feng shui, could it be that Yang Lao also taught you his feng shui technique?"
As he said this, his face visibly became agitated.
I nodded, looking modest: "Uncle Jiang, I won't tell you anything, my grandfather did teach me some feng shui knowledge, but it's just some skin." β
There are actually two reasons why I only learned the skin, the first is because I don't want to expose my abilities too much in front of him yet.
The second is a temptation, if Jiang Wuji is just coming for my feng shui metaphysics, then it will be even more difficult for me to marry Jiang Zirou!
Hearing me say this, Jiang Wuji's face showed a little disappointment, but he didn't turn his face directly to me.
I said this as I watched his expression, and then smiled slightly.
It seems that this Jiang Wuji really obeyed my grandfather's instructions, otherwise with what I just said, he would have directly turned his face and denied the marriage that my grandfather had made.
At this moment, the door outside the hall was opened, and a fashionable middle-aged beautiful woman walked in from the door.
When she saw the shoes on the ground, she was also stunned, and then changed her shoes and entered the hall.
The first time she entered the hall, she saw me, and the expression on her face flashed with a hint of confusion, then changed slightly.
Without waiting for her to ask, Jiang Wuji introduced my identity to the middle-aged beauty.
The middle-aged beauty's brows began to wrinkle slightly, and she looked at me and said, "You are the grandson of Old Man Yang?"
Listening to the meaning of these words, you can know that this middle-aged beauty is Jiang Wuji's wife, Jiang Zirou's mother He Mei.
Although I didn't like her tone, I still stood up and bowed slightly, "Hello Auntie." β
But looking at her attitude, it doesn't seem to welcome me.
I could even guess what she was going to say next, and the words 'the right fit' were indispensable.
Sure enough, He Mei pondered for a moment and continued: "I don't care if you are the grandson of Old Man Yang or not, the engagement was already twenty years ago, and the current society is not as good as before, and it is all about the right family, I can't promise you to get married!"
I stood up and looked straight at her, and what I saw in her eyes was firmness, an unmistakable firmness!
"Auntie, it's okay if you oppose me, but this is the cause and effect that my grandfather set for us, and you plan to destroy it like this? β
I say this because I don't know what the consequences will be if Jiang Zirou and I can't become husband and wife, after all, in my opinion, my life should not be to the point of death.
Grandpa just told me that he wanted to marry Jiang Zirou, but did not say the reason for marriage.
But since grandpa said so, he must have a good intention.
He Mei shook her head disapprovingly and said: "I'll tell you the truth, I also believe in feng shui and fate, otherwise I wouldn't have promised Wuji to set out Xiao Rou's lifelong event twenty years ago, but you don't have anything now, how can I hand over Xiao Rou to you?"
I am not an unreasonable person, and I will not say anything about the series of empty words that I will work hard in the future, because these promises are far less real than actions.
As a mother, He Mei's concerns are not wrong, no one can hand over their daughter to a person who has no financial resources.
Especially for a wealthy and noble family like the Jiang family, it is even more impossible for their children to be wronged.
At this moment, out of the corner of my eye, I inadvertently looked in the direction of the back room.
I saw that Jiang Zirou's door was quietly opened a crack, and her big eyes were looking through the crack in the door, looking at us.
I looked at Jiang Wuji on the side again, and my impression of him was not bad.
After all, there are three people in his family, and he strongly supports me to marry Jiang Zirou.
As soon as I thought of this, I still reminded him: "Uncle Jiang, since Auntie and Zirou are both against this marriage, then I don't force it, it's still the same sentence just now, the cause and effect chosen by grandpa is not unreasonable, so you have to take care of yourself for a while." β
As soon as I finished speaking, I noticed that a smear of gray and green qi rose from Jiang Wuji's seal hall.
If the hall is blue, it will cause an accident in itself, or if the family is ruined, or even if the wife is separated!
I took a deep breath and hesitated to tell him about his blue spells.
Instead, he walked to the gate and left the Jiang family.
After I left, Jiang Zirou ran out of the room and came to Jiang Wuji and He Mei.
"Hey, what a good thing this is, Desheng must have seen something!"
Jiang Wuji sighed heavily, feeling a little anxious.
He Mei threw the bag in her hand onto the sofa and said, "What else can he see? β
Jiang Wuji opened his mouth, and finally sighed again, it was useless to reason with a woman.
Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, He Mei glanced at him, and his family status was undoubtedly revealed.
"Look at your cowardice! I just met Xinlan when I went out, I think her son is very good, social experience or anything is no problem, and more importantly, his grandfather is also a feng shui master, otherwise it would be better to marry Zirou to him. β
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zirou was a little unhappy, frowning and unhappy: "Mom, what are you talking about, I said before that I have no interest in him, if I am allowed to choose, it is better than that Yang Desheng just now!"
Jiang Wuji was amused when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Xiao Rou, when you say that, you just agreed? Since this is the case, then I will go and chase Desheng back to get married!"
As soon as he stood up, Jiang Wuji felt a chill all over his body, and turned his head stiffly, just in front of He Mei's eyes.
Jiang Wuji shrank his neck in fright, and sat back with the body he had just stood up.
......
Out of the huge gate of the Jiang family, only being in this strange big city, I was a little dazed.
To tell the truth, the rejection of a scheduled marriage was something I had not anticipated before I came.
When the two janitors saw me come out in disgrace, their hearts were full of disdain, but they didn't show it.
It wasn't until I walked a dozen steps away that I faintly heard the whispering of conversation coming from behind me.
"Just now, the head of the family came out to greet him in person, I thought it was really the eldest lady's fiancΓ©, but now it seems that nine times out of ten it is fake!"
"Look at his appearance, he may have been blasted out by the wife of the head of the family, not to mention that the eldest lady doesn't look down on him, even my daughter probably can't look down on him. β
β......β
I took a deep breath and wanted to take a taxi, but I thought of the scene where I had just been pitted, and I thought about it.
Walking all the way in the bustling direction, I came to a crowded mall in a short time.
At this time, a plaque caught my eye, with three big words written on it: Fortune Telling Street!
I glanced at the not-so-dense street and pulled three bronze coins out of my backpack.
I've heard my grandfather say before that the longevity of these three bronze coins can be traced back to 600 years ago, and I don't know which generation of my grandfather passed them down.
With three bronze coins in my pocket, I stepped into the fortune-telling street of the big city.
As soon as you enter, it's all antique.
When I came in, I realized that there were not only fortune tellers, but also several elegantly decorated antique shops.
And to my surprise, there are so many fortune tellers here who claim to be half-immortals.
What Huang Banxian, Zhang Banxian, Hu Banxian, and even Shi Banxian have, but it opened my eyes.
There are not many people around, but there are also people walking side by side, walking and stopping at the various stalls around them.
As I walked, an old man at a fortune-telling stall not far away stopped me and said, "That little brother over there, I see that your Yin Tang is shining with red light, and you must be lucky today!"
I looked in his direction and shook my head.
As soon as I arrived in Southwest City today, I was pitted by a driver, and when I arrived at Jiang's house, I was rejected by my mother-in-law.
I walked up to him with great interest and asked with a smile: "Uncle, then you might as well count me a hexagram, I also want to hear what you mean by good luck." β
