"Look at this child. He's neither arrogant nor impatient. It's truly rare!"

Madame Chiang looked up and smiled at her grandmother as if I were her daughter. "Think about it, when I was her age, I spent all day with my sisters at home wondering where I could go to play!"

Second Miss Jiang, who was standing at the side, looked at me as if she was deep in thought. A warm emotion flashed across her eyes.

"That's right, isn't it because he surpassed the Blue to defeat the Blue!?" Grandmother nodded her head with a smile. "When I was your age, I was busy with family matters all day, picking up watermelons, throwing sesame seeds, and broomsticks. I was so busy that my feet didn't even touch the ground.

They talked for a while about the interesting things they had to do with Chinese food. Grandmother, Lady Jiang, and Mother were all the people who had been in charge of the family, and Lady Jiang's sweet words were endless. Grandmother was gentle and kind, and Mother added flowers to the flowers. The three of them seemed to hate seeing each other late and didn't want to stop talking until lunchtime.

Peach pink sarong fluttered by the Bogu rack, the clothes worn by the maidservants in my room.

In order to cater to the Peach Blossom Meet, the two of them had worn the same Peach Blossom Meet this morning. They both wore the same Peach Blossom Meet dress.

Not long later, Lan Lingyun came in with a large teapot of pink longevity peach buns to exchange for some cold tea. I took the opportunity to give her a look.

Taking advantage of the time it took to pour tea, I smiled as I told everyone to move on.

"Look, they're so busy talking that they don't even know when it's time to eat!" Grandmother smiled apologetically as she said, "You've neglected our guest!"

"How can that be? People like us who want to show our filial piety to the elders of our family usually don't even have the chance to do so!" As Madame Jiang spoke, she used a handkerchief to wipe her mouth. "Pity my mother. Before she died, she didn't even have the chance to take a look at her grandson!"

"There's no other way!" Grandmother quickly comforted him, "You are also someone with a husband and children. How can you lose face like this!"

It wasn't that there was no way.

When generals left the capital, the main wife would not follow her husband out of the capital. Most of them would stay at home to serve their in-laws and raise their children. As long as Madame Jiang married her husband, it was reasonable for her to stay at home and leave a good name behind.

It was better if his grandmother didn't comfort him. The more she comforted him, the more tears flowed from Madame Jiang's eyes.

"Everyone thinks I'm intolerable!" Tears rolled down her face like beads as she said, "But you know me. Although I don't have a high background, I have read women's rules and vests, so how could I not understand this logic and ruin my husband's son. In other words, if I were to marry a little girl, as long as I act with caution and teach my son, the general would be able to go beyond my legal wife to discuss family matters with a little concubine! "

Although Madame Jiang's first sentence was dignified, it was still very standard. However, her second sentence was straightforward and extremely bold. Every word she said was from the heart and soul of the head steward's wife.

Even though Grandmother had seen wind and waves before, she could not help but be shocked. She stared at Madame Jiang for a long time without uttering a word.

"But it is said outside that I am too weak to accommodate people. Truthfully, our Jiang Clan's ancestor had said that only those who are over forty can have a concubine. This concubine has repeatedly advised the old master to reject her concubine in one go. When I followed the old master to take over my duties, there were often people who said that I was unfilial and did not know that I was serving my parents. They were unaware that I had come under the order of my mother-in-law to take care of the old master's daily life, cook tea, iron clothes, and bear children! "

At the end of her sentence, Madame Jiang's crying voice became softer and softer. Her tone became more and more sorrowful, and there was even a hint of sadness and gentleness in her voice.

This was truly Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, his heart at home!

Madame Jiang's thoughts were perfect as she wailed that she was lying, and that her condition was real!

At this point, I can't see through any of it.

I thought she meant what she said when she said I was on good terms with a couple of the Chiang children, not the two ladies. But emotionally, I'm only twelve years old, and I'm on good terms with the two young ladies of the Jiang family. Instinctively, I don't want to think in that direction.

However, now that things had come to this point, it would be unrealistic to continue pretending to be confused!

No wonder Grandmother would laugh without saying a word when she saw the weird actions of the mother from Jiang's house in Beijing that day!

It was obviously Old Mistress Jiang who had come to visit his daughter-in-law.

However, this matter seemed to be the marriage of an ordinary family, yet it revealed that it was not normal!

Although the Jiang family does not care as much about their family background as Wen Chen, and the Jiang family is not the main branch of the family, but according to the two young misses, this Young Master Jiang is like the rising sun with limitless hopes, and he is also very straightforward and carefree. He is at a time when he needs the assistance of a capable Yue family on his path to fame, why would he come and ask to marry a small unknown merchant's daughter like me?

What was even weirder was that according to the extent of his affection for young master Jiang, even if this young master didn't want to be controlled and was willing to lower himself to marry, it was impossible for Madame Jiang to be someone who didn't know his place and status.

She even offered a condition of not taking in a concubine …

Not marrying a concubine and not marrying a concubine was the lifelong pursuit of many girls …

Thinking of this, my heart couldn't help but chill a little as I looked at Madame Jiang's affectionate face.

The meat that was brought to his mouth had hooks hidden within it. He had to scrape it until it became a bloody mess before he could stop.

Besides, I had never thought of marrying anyone. No matter how generous Madame Jiang's offer was, it was useless to me.

Since it's impossible for her to agree, it's impossible for her to hurt me in the slightest, no matter what intentions she has.

But Grandmother …

In this room, the slowest person to think was his mother. At this moment, his mother was holding onto a teacup in her hands. Her face was ashen, and her eyelids drooped down. It was obvious that she didn't think much of the marriage. However, the grandma sitting on the brick bed was the opposite. She had a pleased expression on her face, and the corners of her eyes could not hide the joy on her face. She spoke softly with Lady Jiang as if she was very happy.

I'm afraid I will make the old man sad...

Thinking of my grandmother's sad appearance, waves of guilt overtake my heart. I just want me to marry Eldest Young Master Jiang because of Grandmother's wish. It's absolutely impossible for me to become a wife again!

This matter is not as long pain as short pain, should be early to tell grandmother clearly.

Since I'm a girl, how can I casually tell you about my marriage? Besides, the marriage of a child since ancient times is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, isn't this what I do to shock the world?

I was thinking hard when I felt a surge of strength from my arm.

"Hey!" What are you thinking! "

I didn't know when Second Miss Jiang had appeared at my side. At this moment, she pretended to be unconcerned and used her arm to lightly touch my elbow.

"What are you thinking about!" I shot her a glare. "Of course it's to listen to sire!"

Second Miss Jiang twitched her mouth disapprovingly and whispered into my ear, "I wonder what's going on with my mother!" How could he say such a thing! If my father were to know about this, he would definitely be angry! "

When I heard the innocent words of Second Miss Jiang, I couldn't help but smile.

"Don't worry, your father won't blame your mother!"

Although the marriage of a child was managed by the wife, because a woman had been living in the inner chamber for a long time, it was difficult for her to take a peek at the politics and the interests of the court, so she would usually discuss it with her husband.

It was precisely because of this that the Jiang Clan's request for a marriage couldn't be considered solely in terms of friendship between the two families.

In terms of my political role, I only have this face!

As for how the Jiang Clan would make use of the fact that they married me, I do not know …

It's like a game of chess. If you don't follow the rules set by the opponent, you won't know where the opponent is putting Dalong.

Since I'm not going to marry into the Jiang family, I have no way of knowing what the Jiang family is up to.

"How do you know my dad won't blame my mom!" Second Miss Jiang knitted her eyebrows, looking like a proud young lady.

In the end, he still lacked experience, which was why he could not see the world clearly.

After hearing what her mother said for a while, Second Miss Jiang was still unable to catch the meaning behind her mother's words.

Once Second Miss Jiang marries, she would probably wash away this kind of innocent and ignorant girl!

For a moment, I was lost.

"If you don't believe me, just tell your father and let him know whether he will be angry or not!"

"Ah?!" Second Miss Jiang was stunned for a moment before shaking her head like a rattle drum. "How could I dare to say such things to my father?!"

It seemed that General Jiang was very strict with his children. Otherwise, with Second Miss Jiang's fearless personality, she would have agreed without hesitation.

Then why did he raise such a proud and aloof son?

Second Miss Jiang tugs on my sleeve and whispers about how strict her father is. She mocks me in a low voice and occasionally looks around to see if she has been noticed.

After only a few sentences, Madame Jiang and her grandmother had already stood up one after another. Second Miss Jiang had no choice but to pout her mouth and look at her mother's figure like a silly goose.

"I'll treat you to peach blossom cake later!" I covered my mouth with the handkerchief and whispered into her ear.

The look of joy in her eyes widened, and by the time she had regained her smile, I was already leading the way in front of the women.

"Second Miss Jiang is really lively!" Lan Lingyun smiled as she followed me and whispered to the green bandit beside me.

"Young mistress is someone you can discuss as well!" The green bandit lightly berated, but his tone was very gentle.

Lan Lingyun stuck out her tongue, smiled to herself, and returned to her submissive look as she followed behind me.
