My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 46: Visit Jiangmen’s aunt and scare the whole family

Pei's nephew?

Mrs. Jiang and her second aunt Zhang were still not sure about this, but it seemed that someone who could be related to Mrs. Wenyuan Houfu was not a small person, so Mrs. Jiang asked tentatively.

"I wonder how old Mrs. Hou's nephew is now? How many people are there in the family? What do they do for a living? Also, who knows about this engagement? Does my son know about it too?"

When Mrs. Pei heard these words, she sneered in her heart, so she glanced at Mrs. Jiang and said in a calm tone.

"My nephew is nineteen years old, three years older than A Nian. He is the eldest in the family. He serves in the military. He is not a great person. However, he is a smart and virtuous person who will not be criticized by others. We just put aside the basics, so we as elders are quite satisfied. As for the rest, let Jiang Zongzheng do the talking. He also knows about this."

When Mrs. Jiang heard that her son knew about this, she was a little embarrassed, but in front of outsiders, she must protect her son's reputation, so she smiled heartily and said.

"My son must have too many political affairs, so he didn't take care of them. Instead, he made the Hou family worry too much. Ah Nian is not in good health. Now that we have made a marriage arrangement, does the other party know about this? Don't cause any trouble then. That’s not good.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Hou was not very happy.

"What the old lady said makes no sense. If a girl from another family comes to propose marriage, she will praise her over and over again. Why do you want to take her illness and publicize it everywhere? Dare you understand the rules in the house? Is it reasonable to steal someone's marriage, but someone who comes to propose marriage in a serious manner is not welcomed? "

"What's the matter? Madam Hou has wronged us."

"You know in your heart whether you are wronged or not. Ah Nian, I still have some private things to talk to you about. Let's go to your yard first."

Mrs. Pei couldn't stand the faces of the Jiang family, and one or two of them wished they could ruin A-Nian's marriage before they were satisfied, so after saying this, she didn't plan to stay any longer.

Jiang Shiyuan understood what his aunt meant and immediately replied.

"Aunt, please."

After that, he bowed to Mrs. Jiang and his second aunt Zhang and left with his aunt, causing the two people behind them to look up and look very embarrassed.

"Hmph, as expected, who is raised like whom? Every time Mrs. Hou comes to visit us, she acts as if she is looking for some harm. She makes excuses about personal matters. She clearly doesn't want to be with us. Mother-in-law, you are still the elder. They dare to do this. If they wait until the eldest girl gets married, they will have to follow her aunt's behavior and stay away from our family forever! "

Mrs. Jiang was also irritable, so when she heard this, she glanced sharply at the second daughter-in-law.

"Shut up. Before the incident between Jin'er and the Crown Prince, Mrs. Hou was always polite and cordial to me. Now you will put your hat on others, huh!"

The second aunt, Mrs. Zhang, looked embarrassed when she was retorted like this.

"Mother-in-law, this matter has passed, why are you still holding on to it? Besides, after becoming the Crown Princess, didn't Jin'er always respect your elders?"

"If it weren't for the sake of Jin'er's filial piety, I wouldn't want you to come to the hall again. Okay, don't talk too much about A Nian in the future. If you cause any trouble again, let alone the Marquis Wenyuan's Mansion. No, I won't be lenient."

Mrs. Jiang's words were not entirely for Jiang Shiyuan's good, but she just didn't want Wenyuan Houfu to make a fuss about these things again. Although the second aunt Zhang agreed on her face, she still felt it in her heart. Very resentful.

However, she was not willing to ask her to help her daughter plan her future. She was not happy to ask her to help the fourth girl plan this, so she just left it alone. Anyway, there was still a chance for the third young master, so she had to think of a way as soon as possible. It would be better to send people there!

The evil plan appeared in his heart again, and even his eyes became much more fierce.

Listen to Xuanzhong.

Mrs. Hou Pei took a sip of hot tea and felt a little more comfortable, but when she thought of the appearance of Jiang's mother-in-law just now, she couldn't help but said sarcastically.

"Humph, I didn't see them inviting me for a cup of tea when I came to my house. It's really unruly."

As soon as these words came out, Jiang Shiyuan laughed and said with a hint of ridicule.

"If grandma invited you to drink tea, I'm not sure how you would say it. Either you think the tea is not good, or the water is too hot. How dare you, grandma?" "Stinky girl, if it weren't for you, I would I’m too lazy to make this trip.”

"Yes, yes, A Nian will always remember my aunt's kindness to me."

Mrs. Hou Pei glanced proudly at Jiang Shiyuan in front of her, then thought of something and said excitedly.

"Sister-in-law has arrived with her two children. Do you remember what I said about Ziyao before? Now that she has become a big girl, that girl is very capable. She originally wanted to come with me this time, but I refused. The girl grew up in a military camp and has the same temperament as me. You should be more tolerant in the future. "

Jiang Shiyuan leaned on the table with his elbows, supported his chin, and replied helplessly.

"Looking at my aunt like this, she probably likes this cousin Zi Yao more than me. Oh, how sad."

Mrs. Hou Pei pretended to hit her, but her eyes were full of love.

"You girl really got an advantage and still acted like a good girl!"

While the two were playing around, they saw someone shouting from outside, saying that the master had arrived. Jiang Shiyuan got up and went to greet his father. However, Mrs. Pei, the Marquis, was sitting upright. When she saw him entering, she nodded and was not too polite.

"I heard that my sister-in-law came to visit because Ah Nian is going to get engaged tomorrow, so I came here specifically to ask, why did it happen so quickly?"

"My mother-in-law and sister-in-law have already arrived, and the child Zi Su also went to Taichang Temple to pick out an auspicious day. The old lady said that everyone would be more relieved to make a decision early, so we discussed it and said it would be tomorrow, and my brother-in-law was waiting for Pei Come, family. The old lady also said that I, the Marquis of Wenyuan, will accompany A-Nian’s marriage this time. If something inappropriate happens again in the Jiang family, it’s no wonder that we don’t care about our marriage. ”

When Jiang Huaishan heard this, he was shocked at first, and then felt guilty.

He originally thought that the engagement would not be finalized until after the new year, so he did not mention it at home, but now it was too soon, but since it was the old lady who spoke, he had to obey, so he solemnly He replied matter-of-factly.

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will also keep an eye on you personally this time. I promise you will never get into trouble again!"

His determined tone made Ms. Pei feel a little more at ease. She nodded and agreed, then pointed at the box and said.

"This is a dress that was already made. A-Nian will definitely be happy to wear it to the whole family tomorrow."

"Thank you, aunt."

"Okay, I've brought everything I need to say. You two, father and daughter, can rest early. We'll all be here tomorrow. I'll try my best to hold Zi Su down so that he doesn't make too much noise, otherwise he'll have to let others go. Jealous."

"No, no, no, sister-in-law, please don't stop me. The more lively A Nian's engagement is, the better. It will stop those people who don't know what they are talking about. I also want them to know that the person A Nian finally settles with is no worse than anyone else!"

Everyone present understood what Jiang Huaishan meant.

After Mrs. Hou Pei heard this, she was finally tolerant of him. She smiled, her eyes and eyebrows were filled with excitement, and then she patted her chest and said in assurance.

"That's done, brother-in-law, just wait. Tomorrow we will let the whole city of Xijing know that A-Nian will marry the best son of my Pei family!"

Jiang Shiyuan was a little dumbfounded. Although she didn't care about these false claims, her family members had such an attitude, so she had no choice but to cooperate.
