Doting on concubines and destroying wives?I've become cannon fodder for this nerd's fight.

Seeing the two sisters coming hand in hand, Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Jiang, who was sitting at the top, waved to her granddaughter and said, "Ran Ran, come here."

Mrs. Zhao had just learned from her daughter that the Gu family had come to cancel the engagement, and it was really heartbreaking.

She took her granddaughter's hand and took a closer look at her face. She saw that she was indeed not affected too much as her daughter said. She habitually praised her: "My Ran Ran has a good temperament, free and easy, and generous. From then on, Don’t live with yourself.”

Wei Hanzhang didn't want his grandmother to worry about him at all. When he heard this, he pretended to be humble and said jokingly: "It's all my grandmother who taught me well. Don't worry, I will definitely find a husband who is ten thousand times better than Gu Yunran to make the Gu family happy." It’s beyond reach.”

As a girl who has not yet left the government, everyone in the Jiang family sitting here was not surprised when she mentioned her marriage like this. It seemed like it was commonplace, and everyone smiled.

Mrs. Jiang loved her granddaughter so much that she couldn't bear to lecture her at all. Even though she knew that she was deliberately trying to make herself happy, she couldn't help but be happy and said repeatedly: "Ran Ran is a lucky child. You are so lucky." Behind you, grandma is waiting to enjoy your blessing."

"Daughter-in-law, this is a fun thing to do. You take good care of yourself and wait for Ran Ran to honor you." Third aunt Zhang leaned over and smiled at her niece: "Ran Ran, don't forget about aunt when you were a child. She has been very clingy to me for a while and even wanted me to coax her to sleep."

Being teased like this by his family, Wei Hanzhang did not feel ashamed. Instead, he raised his eyebrows and looked arrogant and said, "That's natural. If I become prosperous in the future, I will definitely not forget my aunts."

The three daughters-in-law of the Jiang family are very fond of this niece who was brought up by their family since she was a child. Perhaps it is also because she was born in a Hou family, but the love and care for more than ten years cannot be faked. Wei Hanzhang is not an ungrateful person. She remembered them all.

In Wei Hanzhang's heart, the Jiang family was where she grew up, and it gave her a greater sense of belonging than her father's family, the Zhongyong Hou Mansion.

That was her real family. If not, she would not have agreed to 'grind ink and serve tea' to a man with many wives and concubines in order to save the Jiang family.

The whole family was chatting happily, and while you were talking to each other, Mr. Jiang on the side looked straight at them.

She finally understood what kind of environment her Ranran had been in these years.

This... is simply flattering.

How can anyone be so arrogant about their children, even if it’s a girl’s family...

Jiang immediately comforted himself in his heart. He was supported by the stars in a honey jar and pampered as he grew up. It was a blessing to be able to grow up to be the sensible, generous and cheerful person he is now.

If you are arrogant occasionally, just be arrogant... Anyway, it's not a big deal.

…………

After a night's rest and breakfast, Mr. Jiang looked at his descendants who had regained their color and started talking and laughing freely, and immediately decided to return to Xuzhou tomorrow.

Compared to yesterday's plan to leave in three days, it was once again one day ahead of schedule. Jiang was anxious and helpless. Seeing that his old father had made up his mind, he could only start preparing for the return journey.

After a long journey, there are two old people here, so all kinds of medicine must be prepared, and it is best to arrange an accompanying doctor.

The Jiang family were escorted to Beijing as prisoners. They had no money and no servants to accompany them. They were all masters who were used to serving them. They had to buy some slaves temporarily so that they could have someone to call on them on the road.

Clothes, jewellery, gold and silver utensils, and all kinds of decent things Jiang had to prepare for his father and brothers, he couldn't let them go back to their hometown in such a ruined state and be looked down upon by those high-ranking families in Xuzhou. If the Jiang family wants to establish a foothold in Xuzhou, they must let the high-ranking families in Xuzhou know that their family is fine and they are returning home decently, without any problems at all.

Jiang and her two sisters-in-law discussed what they should prepare when they return to Xuzhou. It was unrealistic to think about how well prepared they should be in a hurry, but they could not lack what they should have.

Wei Hanzhang did want to help, but for this little matter, the three heads of the house were enough. There was no need for the two juniors to work with them, so he sent them away to play.

Jiang Zhixue couldn't hide her uneasiness after hearing that she would return to Xuzhou tomorrow. She was timid and sensitive. She was worried about whether something would happen to her marriage. She was also afraid that after her family had experienced this disaster, the ladies in Xuzhou would suffer. Will they see themselves in the same light?

Jiang Zhiqin, the eldest daughter of this generation of the Jiang family, was abandoned by her husband's family three days after her marriage, which somewhat affected the marriages of the sisters in the family...

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy her face became. When Wei Hanzhang saw her, with the knowledge he had grown up with, he could not help but know that this sister was worried and scared again.

Thinking that this was her cousin's first time back to the capital, and she still didn't know when she would come back next time, she suddenly had the consciousness of a host, and immediately decided to take Jiang Zhixue out for a walk.

Seeing the two girls preparing to leave the mansion, Jiang asked: "Remember to put on your curtain hat, don't ride a horse, take a carriage."

Wei Hanzhang said hello cheerfully, and the two sisters got on the Jiangfu carriage and went to the most lively East Street in the capital.

A few months after returning to Beijing, Wei Hanzhang knew the capital quite well and led Jiang Zhixue into Xu Ji Pastry Shop.

"The chestnut cake and almond cake here are delicious. There is also chestnut cake that my grandmother likes to eat. I can buy a few portions and eat them on the road."

It's early summer now, and the temperature is still a little cool. It's not difficult to store the pastries for two days.

After buying the pastry and tasting it for the first time, he thought about the pastry that he must let his grandmother try one day. Satisfied, Wei Hanzhang began to choose parting gifts for several cousins ​​in the Jiang family.

There are five girls in this generation of the Jiang family. The eldest sister Jiang Zhiqin and the third sister Jiang Zhiqi were exiled to Lingnan with their parents. The remaining Jiang Zhixue, Jiang Zhishu and Jiang Zhiyu are all in the capital. However, the two cousins ​​are still young and are affected by After being frightened, he did not want to leave his parents and did not follow him out.

The largest jewelry pavilion in Beijing, on the second floor.

Wei Hanzhang turned around a few times, and finally decided to choose a forbidden jade pendant for each of his two little cousins. The palm-sized mutton-fat jade is extremely delicately woven with gold thread, and is the most fashionable style in the capital.

What was given to Jiang Zhixue was a pair of forehead ornaments inlaid with rubies. The ruby ​​in the center was made of excellent material and looked crystal clear and sparkling.

The value is naturally high, but Wei Hanzhang has a small amount of assets. When he saw Jiang Zhixue, he only took a second look at it and decided to buy it as a gift to her without hesitation.

There were many guests in the Jewelry Pavilion. Jiang Zhixue had a reserved temperament, and it was not easy to dissuade and refuse in public. It was easy to attract attention, but she felt very sorry for accepting such an expensive gift from her cousin, so that on the carriage back, she had a rather agitated look on her face. disturbed.

When Wei Hanzhang saw it, he said helplessly: "It's just an object worth a hundred taels. Is it worth being so upset like Sister Xue?"

Hearing this, Jiang Zhixue raised her eyes to look at her little cousin, feeling envious in her heart.
