Chapter 240 Do you want the family to fall apart and brothers and sisters turn against each other?
Shortly after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Changning Marquis Mansion released news that they had found a husband who matched Gu You's destiny, and that in October her husband's family would come to marry him.
However, the husband's home was far away from the imperial city, and his background was not well-off, so all etiquette was kept simple.
For this reason, the people in the imperial city had been discussing for several days, feeling that Gu You was pitiful. She was a good legitimate daughter of a marquis, but because of her fate, she had no choice but to marry out of town, and to marry someone with a bad background.
people.
This is too unlucky.
On August 23rd, Xie Yixiao's new yard had been tidied up, and he was waiting to move in, so Xie Yixiao personally went to the Changning Marquis Mansion, intending to move all the last things back and take the opportunity to
It’s time to meet the Jiang family.
Jiang now no longer cares about the affairs of the family, and lives in Shou'an Hall as her leisurely old prince.
"Why are you free to come here today? Your favorite pastry was made in the kitchen. I asked someone to bring some over." Jiang was still very happy to see her and didn't mention anything about the previous things.
Xie Yi moved his lips with a smile, remained silent for a few breaths, and then said: "I came here today to meet my grandmother. By the way, I also moved the things from Qinse Garden."
Jiang paused, the smile on his face became strained, and finally patted her hand and asked her, "How was your stay at Xie's house?"
Xie Yi smiled and said, "It's good. A-Zhu is with me at home, and occasionally the girls from the side branch will come and sit with me."
Although those girls are a bit clever and occasionally play tricks, they still know how to behave, they don't dare to cause trouble, and they don't have much affection, but they are also lively when they get together.
"That's fine." Ms. Jiang sighed, "Since you want to move, then move. Your eldest cousin will get married soon. If you don't want to see her, don't come back soon. When she leaves...
..."
At this point, Mr. Jiang paused: "What did Duke Rong's government say?"
Xie Yi smiled and paused, then said: "I didn't even listen to what they said."
Sure enough, once you tell a lie, you can only keep telling it. If you want to cover it up, you will probably have to tell other lies to cover it up.
Xie Yixiao felt a little uncomfortable, but she didn't feel guilty. If she said that Rong Guogong's Palace didn't care, then Changning Marquis' Palace wouldn't even feel guilty about that matter.
Jiang's eyes became brighter: "Is this marriage still possible?"
If we really wanted to break off the engagement, it would have been long ago since it happened.
Xie Yi smiled and shook his head: "I don't know either."
Jiang asked again: "Did Duke Rong's Mansion ask a matchmaker to ask the horoscopes?"
Xie Yi smiled and said: "No."
When Jiang heard what she said, she was really unsure.
Xie Yi smiled and said: "Grandma, the situation is already like this. The specific situation depends on the wishes of Duke Rong's government. We don't have to ask more questions. If we don't cancel the engagement, I will just marry her. If we cancel the engagement, I have no choice but to
It’s time to find another good match, just pretend that I have no chance to meet the Ninth Young Master.”
Xie Yixiao had also been angry with Mrs. Rong Guogong when she went to the Duke Rong's Mansion to deliver Mid-Autumn Festival gifts. If anyone from the Changning Marquis Mansion asked about it, they would use this explanation to block it.
When Mrs. Jiang heard what she said, she was filled with anger: "It's all your cousin's fault for causing you to be like this!"
Seeing her being so angry, Xie Yi smiled and felt that he still had the potential of White Lotus Little Green Tea. After thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing: "Now that the matter is over, there is no need for grandma to be angry about it. If she really quits, she can only
It’s okay for me to say it’s no chance.”
Just as the two were saying this, someone came to report that the Zhou family was here.
Jiang snorted coldly: "She knows how to choose the time."
As Xie Yixiao expected, ever since Zhou learned that Marquis Changning was planning to marry Gu You, and that he was going to marry someone far away and from a poor family background, he was filled with reluctance and almost started a quarrel.
However, Marquis Changning insisted, and Zhou could not persuade him, so the couple had a bad time.
Zhou turned around to look for Gu Zhixuan, but Gu Zhixuan persuaded her emotionally and rationally, letting her know that Gu You couldn't stay, and that if she stayed any longer, she would definitely cause trouble again in the future.
However, Mrs. Zhou refused to listen. She only felt that her husband and son were going to marry Gu You to such a place. She felt that the sky was falling and searching for the two of them was fruitless, so she came to Mr. Jiang and asked Mr. Jiang for help in interceding.
However, Jiang never saw her and didn't want to pay attention to these things.
As for Gu You, she had been in agony for a long time since she was beaten by Xie Yixiao last time. After she got better, she was grounded in You Ruoyuan again.
Marquis Changning arranged for someone to watch her carefully, but no one was allowed to visit her. Therefore, she probably doesn't know anything yet.
Zhou really picked a good time. Now that Xie Yixiao is back and at Jiang's place, Jiang doesn't want to see Zhou, but Xie Yixiao always wants to see him. After all, he is a junior.
Jiang could only say: "Let her come in."
After saying that, Mrs. Jiang smiled at Xie Yi and said, "You don't have to worry about the affairs of the house. No matter what she says, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Xie Yixiao nodded: "Yixiao understands."
After a while, Ms. Zhou hurriedly walked in. In just half a month, she had lost a lot of weight, her whole body became haggard, and her eyes were red.
"Mother-in-law, Ayou's matter..."
Jiang raised her hand: "You, as parents, have the final say on Ayou's affairs. It's my turn to speak. I'm old and can't control you anymore. Don't talk about these things in front of me."
Zhou choked, knowing that the previous incident had broken the old lady's heart, but she naturally disagreed with Gu Zhixuan marrying Xie Yixiao.
Xie Yixiao stood up: "Grandma, aunt, it's getting late, so I'm going to clean up while you two talk."
Xie Yixiao didn't have time to listen to their nonsense. She could do whatever she wanted, so she quickly ran away.
Jiang nodded: "Go ahead."
Xie Yixiao then turned around and left without even pausing.
After Xie Yixiao left, Mrs. Jiang said calmly: "It's useless for you to cry here. Don't you understand the truth? In the past, Axiang was estranged from the family, and later Gillian broke up with the family.
If you understand Enyi, what’s next?”
"Probably Ah Feng, Ah Ying, Ah Yan."
"Do you want the family to fall apart and all the brothers and sisters to turn against each other?"
"Speaking of snobbish words, if she had never caused trouble or seduced Prince Jiang to take her away to fly away, A-Xiang would be your daughter. With this in-law here, no matter whether it is for the family or A-Xuan in the future, it will be
It’s very beneficial.”
"The same is true for Gillian. A-Xuan was born in Tanhua, and was originally the heir apparent of the Hou Mansion. But with a brother-in-law who is also the heir apparent of the Hou Mansion, and a cousin-in-law who will inherit the title of prince, he will be secure for the rest of his life.
"
"But now, do you think you still have these?"
"You actually want to keep her here? Sooner or later, the Changning Marquis Mansion will be destroyed in the hands of your mother and daughter!"
