After rebirth, I became the stupid son of the Hou family

When Jiang Xiaotian brought the people from the envoy to the military camp at the border, the old marquis held a banquet in the big tent to entertain the officials who were on the mission.

After the banquet, Jiang Chen was stayed by his grandfather. Although the grandfather and grandson were separated not long ago, the old Marquis felt as if he had not seen Jiang Chen for a long time.

He looked at his grandson in front of him and said:

"Chen'er, our Jiang family is really virtuous. In your generation, it is truly a blessing to have a top scholar in your generation. When I received your grandmother's letter, I really couldn't believe it. I am lucky enough to be a top scholar this year. The second one is actually my grandson, Jiang Rong. Let’s see who among them will dare to say that our Jiang family has a martial arts background, and you, a literary star, have also come to our Jiang family.”

Jiang Chen looked at his grandfather's happy and enthusiastic expression and quickly said to him:

"Grandpa, let's just say this behind closed doors. Don't let anyone hear it, or they will say we are too public."

Just as Jiang Chen finished speaking, Jiang Xiaotian, who had arranged for everyone, also walked in.

He saw his grandfather and grandson talking and laughing happily. When Jiang Chen saw his father coming, he quickly stood up:

"Father."

Jiang Xiaotian motioned for him to sit down, and then he also sat down and joined in the conversation between their grandfather and grandson.

Jiang Chen took out a letter from his body, handed it to the grandfather sitting above him and said:

"Grandpa, I was so happy just now that I forgot to give you my grandmother's letter."

After saying that, he handed it over. Jiang Rong took it back with his hand and opened the letter. After reading it, he handed the letter to Jiang Xiaotian with a solemn expression and said:

"I didn't expect that so many things have happened at home recently. I didn't think highly of your concubine Liu at the beginning, thinking that she had given birth to three children for our Jiang family after all. So I didn't stop her from staying. I didn't expect that we This Marquis Mansion has really put these brothers and sisters into this state."

After Jiang Xiaotian read what his mother wrote in the letter, he said without guilt:

"How could Mrs. Liu do such a thing? I have always trusted him and let her brother take care of the house. I didn't expect that both of them are such people. It really disappoints me."

The old Marquis looked at Jiang Xiaotian below and said to him:

"Your mother is still kind. You, Mrs. Liu, are like you. I should have sent the brother and sister to the government to be punished. I just drove her to a farm in the countryside and locked her up. It is really too easy for her."

Jiang Xiaotian saw his father getting angry, and he shook his head helplessly and said:

"She grew up in our family. Unexpectedly, she made a mistake. She turned her arm outwards and stole money from our Jiang family to pay for her natal family. She is really a stupid woman. Even if she is sent to the government, she will not It’s too much.”

Jiang Chen listened to his father's words and quickly said to him:

"Grandma is considering the reputation of our Hou family. If Aunt Liu is sent to the government, it will naturally alarm a lot of people and it will not look good on our Marquis family. That's why grandma chose to deal with it quietly."

The old Marquis looked at Jiang Chen again and said:

"Your grandmother said in the letter that you actually canceled the marriage I made for you since you were a child. Is this true?"

Jiang Chen smiled at his grandfather and said:

"Grandpa, you can't say that. Strictly speaking, the Liu Mansion looks down on me. It was Mrs. Liu who came to the house in person and asked to cancel the engagement. In order to save the face of our Marquis Mansion, grandma naturally refused to agree. We I am going to cancel this marriage now just to fulfill Liu Mansion’s wishes.”

Jiang Rong looked at Sun Tzu in front of him and said:

"You don't need to look at it, I can guess how much. When people broke off the engagement, they must have thought you were a stupid boy, and were afraid that your daughter would be wronged if she married you. But now, is it your intention to break off the engagement? Anyway, I don't believe it. Who would push a handsome number one scholar out? Unless he is a blind man or a fool, and I don’t know how the Liu family’s daughter will regret her decision after knowing that you are going to break off the engagement. Anyway, I think it’s a pity.”

Jiang Xiaotian behaved very generously. He said to his father:

"Emotional matters are fate. This may be because the fate of the two children has not come. Children like us, Chen'er, are we afraid that we will not find a woman who likes to be our wife."

Jiang Rong sighed and said:

"I just feel sorry for my old brother Liu Guogong. I got engaged to the Liu family in the first place so that the friendship between the two families could continue. Now it seems that I have to let him down after all. My Chen'er has nothing. Important, as long as you like it, I, as a grandfather, will do whatever you want."

Jiang Chen quickly waved his hand and said:

"If grandpa is like this, he will spoil me rotten. If there is anything wrong with me, you should just say it. Only in this way can I grow up."

Jiang Xiaotian looked at his son in front of him and felt very proud. But in my heart, I always felt that I had ignored their mother and son before.

So much so that I feel unconfident to speak in front of my son. He helped Jiang Chen and said to his father:

"Father, Jiang Chen is right. He is still young. If he has done something wrong, he should just say it and not just support him. Only in this way can he grow faster."

Jiang Rong glanced at his son and then said to him:

"I see nothing wrong with Chen'er. No matter what he does, I always think he is doing the right thing. When I am with Chen'er, I have endless things to talk about. With you, apart from military affairs, I will never look for anything else. There is nothing left to say."

As soon as Jiang Rong finished speaking, Jiang Chen, who was beside him, couldn't help but laugh.

But Jiang Xiaotian jokingly said to his father:

"Father, why do I think you are so partial? As soon as Jiang Chen comes, everything will go wrong for me as a son. Do you only have eyes for this grandson now? Don't forget, there are two more at home. Where is the grandson? How can you make them both miserable?"

Jiang Rong scolded Jiang Xiaotian:

"Can it be the same? Jiang Chen is the eldest son of our Hou family. He is a rising star who wants to shine in our Jiang family. I am very optimistic about him."

Even Jiang Chen didn't expect that his grandfather would be so fond of him. This kind of warmth of family affection that had been missing for so long was instantly melted by a few words from grandpa.
