Jiang Suxi looked into Jiang Haocheng's eyes and said calmly: "Mother said that she does not regret loving you or marrying you, nor does she regret giving birth to a daughter for you. A woman's life is only complete after giving birth to a child."
Yes, but she regretted trusting your promise. Back then, the handsome and handsome young man said that he would be a couple for the rest of his life, but in the end he would not have three wives and four concubines!"
Jiang Suxi smiled coldly: "Mother said, if you don't like me, why should I stupidly wait for your care? Back then, everyone in the country said she was a flower stuck in cow dung, but she was like a flower stuck in cow dung.
She is still strong and brave and follows you! As a woman, only by being self-reliant can you be happy."
After Jiang Suxi said this, he turned around and walked to the door of the courtyard. He turned around and glanced at Jiang Haocheng who was staying where he was: "Father, yesterday, I almost encountered three people in this Prime Minister's Mansion.
****. I don’t blame you. I have allowed those people to bully me overtly and covertly over the years, but now that I am awake, I will not let anyone bully me again in the future, and of course, that includes you!"
Jiang Suxi finally said: "Father, I am your daughter. Don't you have any responsibility for the death of my mother? You clearly knew that she was weak and could not bear the pain of pregnancy, but why did you let her get pregnant?"
Now? Speaking of which, isn’t the most selfish person the man she loves so deeply? Man, that’s ridiculous!”
Of course, these words cannot be what Li Mengyun said to Jiang Suxi in his dream, but what Jiang Suxi deduced based on Suqin's description of Jiang Haocheng and Li Mengyun and his own guesses.
Jiang Suxi told Jiang Haocheng like this, she was using psychological tactics. She wanted to arouse Jiang Haocheng's feelings of guilt for this eldest lady. Only in this way, no matter what she wanted to do, Jiang Haocheng would protect her, even if he didn't
If you protect me, at least you won't object.
In this society with such a strict hierarchy, Jiang Haocheng, as the left prime minister, is Jiang Suxi's best protection card at present.
Facts have proved that Jiang Suchi succeeded.
Jiang Haocheng stood there, stunned for a long time. Finally, he fell weakly to the ground. Under the eaves, the housekeeper who had been acting as the air hurriedly ran over to help him, and said in a worried tone: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
"Afu," in this main courtyard, since Li Mengyun passed away, only Jiang Haocheng and the housekeeper Fu Bo live there. Jiang Haocheng is not afraid that his decadent appearance will attract the attention of others. His voice is extremely painful, and it is
Tears fell: "Mengyun, am I... really... sorry for her?"
"Sir, my wife has been here for many years. You see, the eldest lady is now twenty-one years old. Why can't you let go of the past?" The housekeeper sighed and helped Jiang Haocheng to the bench in front of the azaleas.
Sit down.
"Xi'er, I'm twenty-one this year," Jiang Haocheng's eyes were blank, as if he had just discovered this: "Yes, Mengyun and she...have left me...it has been twenty-one years, but I only know it now."
, she blames me."
Jiang Haocheng grabbed the housekeeper Fu Bo's hand and said in an excited tone: "Afu, you know, she blames me, blames me for breaking my promise, marrying one house after another, and blames me for not treating us well.
My daughter, I just found out today that she resents me so much. No wonder she hasn’t been willing to come to my dreams for so many years..."
Jiang Haocheng's words were filled with tears and his voice was filled with sadness. Tears also filled the eyes of Butler Fu Bo. He held Jiang Haocheng's hand with his backhand and said, "Master, my wife's life was too hard and she died too early."
It has been a long time and I have not caught up with the good times, but these years have passed, and you should look away. If you have been living in the past, my wife will definitely be unhappy."
"Fate?" Such a long sentence, just such a word entered Jiang Haocheng's ears, and he suddenly laughed, his body trembling with laughter: "Afu, you have been following me for so many years, but you still don't understand me.
, if I believed in fate, how could I be where I am today?"
Back then, he was so depressed that he even despised beggars. If he believed in his destiny, he would have dug a big pit in a barren mountain or by a wild river and buried himself, so that he could live up to the words "life is hopeless".
Where can there be the honor of being named on the gold medal list and the pride of horse hoofs trampling flowers? Where can there be the opportunity to use your talents to the fullest, stand at the top of the literary world, and become an "emperor's teacher"?
That gentle and virtuous woman, the love in his heart was lost not to his fate, but to her own eyes.
It was because she had misjudged him, because he was not worthy of her! He was not worthy of her kindness and her expectations.
Naturally, he also knew that the butler who had been with him for decades was the only person left in the world who understood him.
Back then, Jiang Hao was appointed governor of Jiangzhou. On the day when he was handed over, he encountered a murder case. A young man named Gou Wa took a knife to pick out pig bones and killed his father and mother. He was so cruel that he happened to be killed by his neighbor.
I saw the blood on the boning knife was still dripping when they were blocked at the entrance of the hospital... With all the witnesses and evidence available, the former governor sentenced Gou Wa to death with a stroke of his pen and ordered him to be executed in the autumn.
Most extremely evil people cherish their lives, and will scream at the top of their lungs when given a death sentence, but this little dog's face is as calm as the surface of a mirror lake, and he signs without any emotion.
That frail young man, who was all dirty and messy, but had a pair of pure eyes, knelt on the cold and hard floor for two full hours, his waist as straight as loose, and he didn't even sway.
This young man is born with a proud character!
At that moment, Jiang Haochen couldn't explain why. He just believed that there was something fishy about this murder case. For this reason, Jiang Haocheng did not hesitate to fall out with the former governor and personally went to the young Gouwa's village to look for clues.
The weather in summer is inherently unpredictable. A heavy rain completely drenched the weak scholar Jiang Haocheng. He suffered from cold dampness and developed a high fever. There were no doctors in that remote country and he almost died while investigating the case.
On the road.
Fortunately, after the rain and the sky cleared, Jiang Haocheng carried it over and found new clues, successfully resolving the case of young Gou Wa.
It turned out that Gou Wa's mother was a woman from a decent family in Jiangnan. She was newly married for three months and pregnant with a child, but she was abducted by a trafficker. Seeing that the pregnant woman could not be sold, the trafficker actually took the woman back to his village.
, claiming to the outside world that she was a daughter-in-law married in a foreign country.
For the sake of her children, the woman endured the humiliation and lived an elusive life. Under the beatings and abuses of the trafficker, she lived in fear for twenty years. She thought her life was over, but she accepted her fate. But the man, a trafficker, owed thousands in a gambling house in the city.
Two taels of silver. In order to repay the money, he actually forced the woman to go out and become the meanest wild prostitute on the grounds that she was old and still had some beauty, soliciting customers on the street to earn flesh and blood to pay off his debts!
Naturally, the woman refused to obey. During the resistance, she was severely beaten by the man. The hatred she had suppressed for many years finally burst out at a certain point. She felt a kitchen knife and slashed at the man...
After all, the woman's strength was a little weaker, and the man quickly snatched the knife away. The man who had been chopped several times got angry and stepped on the back of the woman who fell to the ground, grabbing the woman's hair and forcing her to raise her head.
, he used the kitchen knife to cut the woman's neck.
The woman died immediately, but the man also lost strength due to the severe bleeding. The kitchen knife fell to the ground with a clang, and the man's tall body was also hit...
When a young Gouwa returned home from hunting hogweeds, he saw his mother lying in a pool of blood. The man who had ruined both mother and son waved to him, calling for help in unclear words.
"Dog...dog boy...hurry...doctor...find..."
Gou Wa hates this man so much, wishing that this vicious and dirty man would get sick and die earlier. Now this man has killed his mother, and he still wants him to save him?
Gouwa just went over and picked up the kitchen knife on the ground, watching calmly as the man shed more and more blood, and took his last breath.
Tears flowed down silently, and the smell of blood in the room made Gouwa unconsciously frown into the character "chuan". He stood there blankly, looking at the bloody kitchen knife in his hand.
He thought, this damn dirty man has finally gone to hell!
He thought again that it was this knife that killed the only mother who loved him.
Since then, his little dog has no relatives in this world. Maybe he should leave with his mother?
If you die, will you no longer have to be laughed at and suffer?
Gou Wa's body began to tremble. At this moment, he really wanted to end his humble life.
But he didn't have the courage to commit suicide.
Neighbor Zhang Laizi happened to come to borrow a rice sieve at this time. When he entered the house and took a look, his face turned pale with fright: "Kill... Kill someone, kill someone!"
Gouwa watched the lame man staggering away and ran wildly, and a strange thought suddenly came to his mind.
Since he doesn't have the courage to commit suicide, let the executioner help him!
Therefore, in the trial hall, he never shouted the word "injustice" for himself. Hearing the words "Qiu Hou Wen Zhan", he felt a little happy in his heart and calmly signed his name.
However, even though he was begging for death, he was not the "extremely evil" murderous thug that others described him as. With a clear conscience, he knelt down and held firm.
My mother said that people can't be arrogant but they can't be arrogant. If not, he would have lived a humble life for twenty years. If not, he was doomed to a miserable fate today, but he was also full of ambition.
But now, die early and be reborn early!
-This is the truth about this murder! It was the truth that Jiang Haocheng, the new governor of Jiangzhou, almost cost his life to find out.
What happened next was simple. Jiang Haocheng solved the case for Gou Wa, and was pleasantly surprised to find that this poor boy who was only one year younger than him was actually a rare talent, so he personally taught Gou Wa all kinds of knowledge and helped Gou Wa.
He took a new name, called him "Fu", and followed his own surname.
Jiang Fu burst into tears of gratitude for Jiang Haocheng's kindness in saving his life, his kindness in finding a new friend, and his kindness in rebuilding his life. From then on, he followed Jiang Haocheng wholeheartedly.
He followed Jiang Haocheng from Jiangzhou to Suizhou, from Suizhou to Jiangnan, and from Jiangnan to the capital. He traveled for half his life, went to court several times, saved Jiang Haocheng's life in the rivers and lakes, and gradually became friends with Jiang Haocheng.
They grew old together and became Uncle Fu, the current butler of Zuo Xiangfu.
