My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 123 Yuan Kang talks about a chance encounter during the Mid-Autumn Festival

Today, the old lady specially put on a festive dark red dress embroidered with blessings, wealth and longevity patterns. With her forehead dotted with gems, she looked even more charming as an old lady from an official family.

Everyone in the family was reunited here. When she looked at Jiang Huaishan and Jiang Shiyuan, her eyes were not as dissatisfied as before, and she seemed to be trying to turn their hostility into friendship.

Then he picked up the wine glass at hand and cleared his throat.

"I have been ill for such a long time, and many things happened at home. Fortunately, the rain has passed and the sky is clearing now. Ah Nian is getting married, and Shu'er has received help from a noble man. Xiaoyue is by my side and takes good care of me. Girl Yi It makes me happy every day, as if all the knots in my heart have melted away. Come on, let’s raise a toast and forget all the unpleasant things in the past. From now on, there will only be good days waiting for our Jiang family. "

It was rare to hear her say such open words, so everyone present raised their glasses in a respectful manner, and then saluted her.

It can be considered a good start for this reunion dinner.

With Jiang Huaiyi here, the scene would not be deserted. She then took the cup and said with a smile to her elder brother Jiang Huaishan.

"Over the years, my brother has worked hard to take care of this family, and my sister has not cared much about it even though she married far away. So I would like to toast to you. I wish you a bright future and a prosperous future for the Jiang family."

Hearing this, Jiang Huaishan also laughed heartily, then picked up a glass and drank it. He Dafu, who was next to him, rarely met Jiang Huaishan, so he naturally wanted to drink a few more glasses. The two of them are not good drinkers. Man, so I just had a few drinks.

When He Yuankang saw it, he joined in the fun, raised his glass and said to Jiang Huaishan.

"Uncle, Yuanyasu also wants to toast you!"

Jiang Huaishan was in a good mood and refused to accept anyone who came. He picked up the wine in his hand and drank another glass of wine. After drinking several glasses of wine in succession, his face became more flushed. Then he saw the bowl given to her by Aunt Yang who was waiting next to her. Some vegetables were added silently to the plate.

He also whispered something into Jiang Huaishan's ear.

"Master, please eat the food first to avoid getting drunk."

Jiang Huaishan glanced at her and nodded slightly. Now the relationship between the two is sweeter than before. There is no other aunt in the family, so speaking of it, Aunt Yang is the only one she loves.

Seeing that his brother had finished the food on the plate, Jiang Huaiyi glanced at Aunt Yang and felt relieved after seeing that she was still standing beside her with a low eyebrow and did not do anything inappropriate.

It’s no wonder she thinks too much. No matter how good Aunt Yang is, she can only be an aunt in this life. Otherwise, if she is corrected, her brother will be impeached, and the back house may be in chaos. After all, like the current situation of the Jiang family, marrying a A noble girl has a good chance.

There is no serious mother-in-law to govern, and the grandmother is sick. Once you marry in, you can become the head of the family. This is a good thing that many families are looking forward to. Therefore, at this time, it is best for Aunt Yang not to come out and disturb the situation. .

Thinking of this, I said something on the table.

"Brother, A-Nian's marriage has been settled. Have you begun to see your daughter-in-law? Do you want us to help make some suggestions?"

Jiang Huaiyi didn't know about the girl from the Geng family, so when she suddenly mentioned it, Mrs. Jiang's previously fine expression became a little uncomfortable.

She has not forgotten how Mrs. Wang insulted her when she was at Wenyuanhou Mansion, and how her son became furious in her Tai'an Courtyard because of this!

"I've been looking at it too, and I've chosen a few girls to inquire about. It's just that Ji'er doesn't have any fame yet. If I mention it rashly, I'm afraid there won't be any good results, so let's wait and see, wait until spring. We’ll decide after it’s over.”

Waiting until the end of spring to make a decision means that the other party's family status is not low. Considering the current situation of the Jiang family, they are probably high-ranking, so they have to wait until their nephew has achieved fame before making a decision. Thinking of this, Jiang Huaiyi feels relieved A lot.

Marrying a wife from a high-ranking family, the eldest sister-in-law is an example. Just look at the pair of children she gave birth to and you will know how important a mother is to her children. This does not mean that the other nieces and nephews are not attractive, but there is a huge gap compared to them.

Even comparing her own son, she still felt that her nephew's future was brighter, so she sincerely hoped that her nephew would marry a virtuous wife so that the next generation of the Jiang family would have more hope.

"It's good that my brother has a plan, so I won't say much. When the time comes, I'll follow suit, and I'll prepare a gift for him. It can be regarded as a little thought from me as an aunt."

Speaking of extra gifts, Jiang Huaiyi personally came to the door the next day and gave the things to Jiang Shiyuan.

It was a land deed for 800 acres of fertile land outside the city and a village. Coincidentally, it was sold by an old minister who was going back to his hometown to live in retirement. The He family happened to hear the news, so they bought it together.

The price is not low, but it won’t make the He family feel distressed.

However, such a large sum of money made Jiang Shiyuan feel that he was not rewarded for his efforts, so he refused repeatedly. However, Jiang Huaiyi did not say that what he wanted to give out was a failure. After several words, Jiang Shiyuan just said: Be able to obey orders and accept them obediently.

She was willing to be generous with Jiang, and was not stingy with her other nieces and nephews, but in comparison, she was not so willing after all.

Jiang Shishu didn't mind, but Jiang Shilin didn't get involved. The only one who had some opinions on the matter was Jiang Shiyue, but she didn't dare to put her words out in the open and could only digest them silently.

But in front of her aunt, she became more and more attentive, and everyone could see her affectionate attitude.

He Yuankang smiled and interjected at the right time.

"My eldest cousin and I have been together for two months. If he has to wait until next spring to discuss marriage, I'm afraid I will have to rush ahead."

As soon as his words came out, everyone present was shocked.

Especially Jiang Shiyue, who had made his wishful thinking, was surprised and felt regretful and dissatisfied that the meat in the bowl was taken away by others. She sat there angrily and wanted to ask questions, but Jiang Huaishan stopped her. step.

"Oh? What do you mean? Yuanyasu has his sights on a girl?"

"Hehe, to be honest with my uncle, I was walking around outside these days, and I actually saw a girl who was gentle and lovely. I secretly followed her carriage to have a look, and she turned out to be..."

He even pretended to speak and broke his moral integrity, which aroused everyone's curiosity, especially Jiang Huaiyi. She didn't know that her son had fallen in love with a girl after a few days out, so she patted him on the shoulder anxiously. He said immediately.

"Tell me quickly, brat, whose girl is she from?"

He Yuankang deliberately whetted everyone's appetite, but Jiang Shiyuan on the side calmly took over the words after putting down his chopsticks.

"Cousin Yuankang should be interested in Miss Feng Jiu, the daughter of the minister of Honglu Temple."

He Yuankang was shocked when he heard this, turned around and asked immediately.

"How could cousin Anian know?"

Jiang Shiyuan smiled and then told him about this coincidence.
