My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 30 The old lady opens her mouth to get married

Ignoring the angry expression of the second aunt, Jiang Shiyuan took a piece of Hui Mo from Liu Hua's hand, handed it to Jiang Huaishan respectfully, and then said.

"It is a great joy for the Jiang family that Dad has been promoted to the position of Zongzheng. Previously, my daughter knew that you were a good calligrapher, so she sent someone to look for this ink. Now she has finally found it, so I present it here in the hope that Dad likes it."

Jiang Huaishan took the Hui Mo and couldn't put it down, with a look of relief in his eyes.

"This is a very good gift. My father likes it."

Mrs. Jiang looked a little worried when she saw it. This thing could have been given privately, but now in front of so many of them, do you want to show it off?

Then he got the idea to say something to her, but Jiang Shiyuan then took out another box, which contained eighteen skewers made of small-leaf red sandalwood. He turned to walk in front of him and saw her sweet He said with a sweet smile.

"This is a congratulatory gift to my grandmother. My father is where he is today thanks to my grandmother's hard work and support. Therefore, my father often told my brother and I to be filial to my grandmother. Things were prepared early. , I didn’t take it out before because my granddaughter knew that my grandmother was worshiping Buddha, so she specially sent it to Guanghua Temple for the abbot to bless her. It was just returned a few days ago, so I rushed to give it to my grandmother today and asked her to accept it. "

Mrs. Jiang is a widow who raised her two sons and relied on starching and sewing. Naturally, she does not have much foundation and has never seen any good things. Therefore, when she saw this bracelet, she heard that it was one of the blessing items. At this time, Zong Heng Guo also had a smile on his face, which was a little more cordial than the coldness just now, and he mentioned it with satisfaction.

"A-Nian is interested."

For a time, the evil fire that had been accumulated in her stomach was reduced a lot, and the second aunt Zhang, who was sitting across from her, saw Jiang Shiyuan giving two generous gifts one after another, and she couldn't help but look behind her, as if she was waiting. Her own, but unfortunately Jiang Shiyuan didn't let her get what she wanted.

He just said something lightly and sat down next to his father Jiang Huaishan.

"It's fine if grandma likes it. By the way, I've also prepared gifts for my second aunt and my brothers and sisters, but some of them can't be carried. When I get back later, I'll have them delivered to your respective courtyards. It's also a little bit of mine. mind.”

"Thank you, big sister."

Three or four boys and girls stood nearby and gave Jiang Shiyuan a half-courteous thank you. A woman wearing a pea green embroidered gourd pattern pomegranate skirt caught her attention.

Apricot eyes and sharp face, beautiful and clear.

She is Jiang Shiyue, the second daughter of the Jiang family, who was born to Aunt Hai.

She is three years younger than Jiang Shiyuan, and is now about thirteen years old. Although her figure is still a little unsightly, she can be seen to be a rare beauty. It is a pity that Jiang Shiyuan is the most beautiful woman in Dasui. Because of her reputation, the outside world has little impression of the other girls in the house.

"The eldest sister is finally here. My younger sister was still thinking that the weather would be too hot and the road would be difficult to walk on, so she was planning to go out to meet you."

"Oh? Really? The fourth sister is worried. You look beautiful today, but are you going to have someone at home?"

Jiang Shiyuan's words made Jiang Shiyue suddenly startled. She was young and had never seen much of the world. Naturally, she couldn't help her elder sister's casual question. Being beaten and scolded by my aunt Zhang, I could only pretend to be calm and say something.

"The eldest sister was joking. The younger sister just thought that today is a day for the whole family to reunite, so she tidied up a little. She can't be compared with the eldest sister."

Jiang Shiyuan smiled calmly and glanced at the people in front of him. He quickly saw the discomfort on the faces of his second aunt Zhang and his grandmother who were sitting opposite, and he made a decision in his heart.

Jiang Shiyuan pretended to cough twice through a silk handkerchief. Jiang Shiyuan's "weak" look made the second aunt Zhang look proud. Although Jiang Shiyue standing next to her was still well-behaved, she was not in his eyes. The words were so innocent, full of expectation and uncontrollable joy. It looks like someone is really coming to the house.

But the person who can make them pay so much attention to him must not be of low status. But the Jiang family has only moved to Xijing City for a few days. Who can they know from high-profile families?

Jiang Shiyuan was just thinking when he heard Mrs. Jiang speak.

"Your father's advancement is a happy event for the whole family. Our family has established an in-law relationship with Prince Chun's Mansion, and we have established a firm foothold in Xijing City. Your second sister did not forget about the family when she got married, so today we specially invited the prince My third brother came to our house for a reunion, and I also From what I heard, her mother was usually a concubine in the palace, but the son she gave birth to was quite good. She said that she had been working as an errand at Weiwei Temple for a long time. She thought that there were still a few unmarried sisters in the family, so I thought it would be a rare fate for sisters to marry brothers. "

Mrs. Jiang explained, and Jiang Shiyuan understood immediately.

I guess they felt that Jiang Shijin was isolated and helpless in the palace, so they came up with the idea of ​​"sisters marrying brothers", hoping that Jiang Shiyue would show her face in front of the prince's third brother. If this could be done, their second wife would be really happy. I really need to hold my head high and be a good person.

After all, being able to send both daughters to Prince Chun's Mansion is an extraordinary method.

Outsiders will look at the Buddha's face even if they don't look at the monk's face. In the future, people in the second wife's house will naturally gain some respect in the circle of ladies.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shiyuan immediately glanced at Aunt Yang and his third sister Jiang Shishu. As expected, both mother and daughter looked sad and lost. They were both born as aunts, and they were both unappreciated concubines in the family. If Hai Hai Jiang Shiyue, the fourth sister born to my aunt, had really climbed onto this high branch. Wasn't she deliberately showing off to their eldest brother?

Disappointment and coldness came to his head at the same time. Jiang Shiyuan glanced at his father sitting next to him and saw that he was also a little surprised. Then he looked at Aunt Yang and her daughter with concern. She knew that this matter was done by her grandmother and her second aunt. Even his father hid it in advance.

hateful!

She and her father still cared about some family ties, so they tolerated the matter of the substitute marriage. There were rumors outside that Jiang Huaishan was a poor housekeeper, which is why such a thing happened, which originally damaged his reputation. .

Now it is even more exaggerated. I want to send my daughter at home to walk this road again!

Princess Chun is already dissatisfied with Jiang Shijin. If she vents her anger on the Jiang family or her father and brother, wouldn't it be worth the loss!

You must know that Princess Chun's natal family has someone in the Imperial College. If it interferes with her brother's future, the Jiang family will be mute and unable to tell the story of the pain caused by eating coptis.

Moreover, Song Shizhuo is also a hypocrite. After Jiang Shiyuan married into Prince Chun's palace in his previous life, although he didn't have much dealings with him, he also knew that his moral character was not very good. He was submissive at home and aggressive outside. Such a person If she gets married, I'm afraid the fourth sister won't get anything good!

She doesn't have much affection for her fourth sister, but Aunt Hai is a nice woman.

When she was a child, her brother would take her younger brother Jiang Shilin to play in her mother's yard. After going back and forth, she naturally knew that Aunt Hai was also a humble and docile person, so she decided not to let this happen, so she calmed down. said.

"Grandma, I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

As soon as she opened her mouth, several people's unkind eyes were directed at her. If their eyes were sharp, Jiang Shiyuan would be dripping with blood at this moment.
