My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 28 Father and daughter look back on family affairs

After hearing what her son-in-law said, Mrs. Wang finally calmed down her previous dislike of him.

In any case, at least when it came to the marriage of his two children, he, the father, didn't have any bad intentions, so he agreed that Jiang Shiyuan would return home with her father.

It was sudden when it came, and things were naturally present on both sides.

Therefore, when Jiang Shiyuan left, he only took a few sets of clothes with him and nothing else. After following his father Jiang Huaishan into the carriage, he opened the curtain and took a look at Pei Zsu who was coming to see him off.

His expression was quite calm, so he leaned closer and said something.

"I will arrange the engagement as soon as possible, A-Nian."

"Cousin Pei just looked at the arrangement and A Nian didn't choose."

Since she had made up her mind, the engagement was going to happen, so it didn't make any big difference to him sooner or later. However, Pei Zichen had finally won the support of the whole family, and he wouldn't agree if he didn't get it done quickly. rest assured.

So after the Jiang family's carriage drove out of Pei Zifan's sight, he didn't sit idle and went straight to the princess's mansion.

In the entire Xijing City, the only ally he can like now is Princess Qinghuan.

And he could feel that Princess Qinghuan was very satisfied with the marriage between the two of them. Therefore, when he came to the princess's house, he naturally wanted to facilitate this matter. With his cousin's talent and appearance, if he was targeted by someone, , then wouldn’t he have to lose more than he gained?

Her steps were in a hurry, but Jiang Shiyuan, who was following her father home at the moment, was closing her eyes and concentrating. She didn't expect that the marriage would be finalized in three or two days, which was really fast. .

The corner of his mouth was raised slightly. This appearance made Jiang Huaishan on the side really feel the sentence "women are not allowed to stay in university". His eyes were full of helplessness and bitterness. He finally got the opportunity to be promoted to Beijing, but he didn't. Thinking of separation, he sighed heavily, and Jiang Shiyuan opened his eyes and spoke.

"Dad, don't be sad. Your daughter will take good care of herself even if she goes to Hanzhou when she gets married. And the hidden doctor is also in Hanzhou. Maybe she can completely cure her daughter's disease, so you can be at ease. Otherwise, if If others see you frowning, they may not know what they will think, and they may even guess whether your daughter is seriously ill."

She said something jokingly to herself, just to stop her father from always thinking about marrying far away. Why didn't Jiang Huaishan understand his daughter's painstaking efforts? His eyes were filled with distress, and then he touched her forehead and said.

"You, you really have an idea. You can't choose who to marry. You have to choose this young general Pei. Although Hanzhou is good and the Pei family is powerful, how can dad not be worried if you marry alone? , everyone says there is one at home My daughter is about to get married, but how can she suffer so little in getting married? You don’t want to hear this. Yesterday, your second sister went home and cried. Now the family is in a state of misery. Your grandmother and second aunt are worried. I regret it too.”

Did Jiang Shijin cry when she went home?

Or yesterday?

Suddenly, Jiang Shiyuan remembered what Princess Qinghuan had said yesterday. It seemed that her second sister had some evil intentions. She couldn't find a way out from the princess, so she wanted to go home and force her father.

Then he asked after thinking deeply.

"Dad, my second sister came to you crying?"

"That's not true. She stole the crown prince's marriage that day, and her father was very angry with her, so she was strictly forbidden to go to Huaixinyuan again. The boy from the second gate was waiting there early, saying that she was at your grandmother's house. In the yard, so my father didn’t go there. She sent people to ask several times, but I always refused. "

When Jiang Huaishan talked about his niece, he also hated the fact that iron cannot become steel.

I think back then, he felt pity for his second brother's early death and brought all his wives, concubines and children back to the mansion. His wife was also there at that time, so everyone in the second brother's family behaved well and never caused any major troubles. But my wife died of illness, my daughter went north, and my son was sent to school. His yard suddenly became empty. It was also at this time that my niece came to greet her every day. She was sweet and well-behaved and cute. He was full of longing for his daughter. There was nowhere to put it, so it was all projected on Jiang Huaijin.

He was extremely doting on her.

For so many years, Jiang Shijin has always been a very important person in the house. Many outsiders thought that his niece was the daughter of the Jiang family without knowing it. He explained it several times and saw that she was a little disappointed and inferior, so he just said it. I won’t interfere much in this matter.

Who knew that her momentary heartache would actually encourage her love of substitution, not only in Xuzhou, but also after coming to Xijing City. Therefore, how much Jiang Huaishan loved his niece before, now he is so disappointed.

"Dad, it's not that my daughter wants to stir up trouble, but the second sister's visit this time probably has a purpose."

"What's the meaning?"

"Yesterday, my daughter went to the princess's house for a banquet. By chance, she met Princess Chun and her second sister. The princess was afraid that our meeting would be awkward, so she didn't let us meet. However, the princess told her daughter afterwards that she seemed to be the son of the prince. The eldest concubine brother got a good position, so the princess was a little anxious, so she went to the princess specifically to arrange some errands for the prince, and I heard that she was interested in the River Department. "

Jiang Huaishan has been an official for many years, so he is still cautious.

After listening to her daughter's words, she quickly connected the things in her mind, and her face became much more solemn than before.

"My father has never asked about this matter before, but Zongzheng Temple is far away from the River Department, and my father is just a mere young minister. Even Princess Qinghuan can't handle it. Even if I want to, I can't do it, so If your second sister wants to ask me for help, then it’s easy.”

"I don't necessarily want to find ways to get through my father. I just want to ease the relationship. I'm afraid she will have a hard time in Prince Chun's palace. Otherwise, with her temperament, I'm afraid she won't go back to her parents' house so quickly and bow her head."

Jiang Shiyuan made an analysis, and Jiang Huaishan also took it into his heart.

The carriage also stopped quickly while the two were contemplating, and the coachman outside whispered something.

"Master, eldest lady, you are home."

When the two of them heard this, they naturally wanted to get off the carriage, but they didn't expect that when they just entered the mansion and before going to the backyard, a familiar-looking woman stood at the moon gate, looking around, and saw the father and daughter. After the two of them appeared, their originally anxious and flustered expressions soon cleared up.

He walked up quickly and said hello to the two of them.

"The old slave has met the master and the eldest girl."

"Why are you waiting here, Mother Du? But is there something wrong with my mother?"

The mother Du in Jiang Huaishankou was the mother who Mrs. Jiang had taken care of for many years. Originally, the two families were close neighbors, and both were widows whose husbands had died raising their children, so their relationship was relatively good.

Because Jiang Huaishan jumped into high school and then married the daughter of Wenyuan Houfu, the Jiang family naturally rose to prominence. On the contrary, the son of the Du family next door failed to live up to expectations. He ate, drank, whored and gambled every day. His family was originally poor, and he was eventually reduced to selling his children. The woman is still selling her old mother to pay off her debts.

At that time, Mrs. Du moved into the Jiang Mansion with her grandchildren. Due to past relationships, the whole family caught Mrs. Jiang's eye and stayed by her side to serve her.
