Chapter 234 Cousins

Tang Yanxiu only felt that her life was very bitter.

Let's not mention the things in the previous life for now, let's just talk about this life.

First he lost his parents, and then he was treated harshly by his uncle. After he traveled through time, he had to face his grandfather's death before he stayed with his grandfather for long.After finally escaping from the Tang family, it was a bumpy road afterwards.Even though she was engaged to Mo Qianrui a few days ago, she still wasn't sure if Cheng Huaxian would do anything excessive...

If it is said that those things have passed, it is also deliberate for him to forget them directly.And things that haven't happened yet don't need to be so worried.

Only the matter in front of him made him feel dizzy.

"...I've said so much, Yan Xiu, why have you been silent?"

The old lady of the Duan family could not help showing a trace of impatience on her loving face, not because she was impatient, but because she started persuading after noon, and now it was dark, Tang Yanxiu looked indifferent.

"Grandma, I didn't mean to be silent, I really don't know what to say."

This is definitely Tang Yanxiu's sincere words.

Cousins ​​getting married or something, it's really insane.

Even if he wasn't engaged to Mo Qianrui, and even if he didn't have a girl he liked at all, he would never agree to this marriage.

Not to mention, in case a deformed child is born in the future... Is it too bad for the child?
"Yan Xiu, you are too young, otherwise you wouldn't be easily fooled by others. The same goes for Brother Xun and Brother Min. There is no big deal at home. They are in such a hurry. What are you rushing back to do? If it wasn't like this, you wouldn't be bluffed!"

Brother Xun and Brother Min are the two young masters of the Duan family who followed Tang Yanxiu to Wanhua County.

"Grandma, I really wasn't fooled. Besides, that's not the point."

The point is, he cannot accept cousins ​​getting married!

"Okay, okay, there's no need to mention these things anymore. Anyway, you and that girl are only engaged, and it's still verbal. There is neither a change of invitations nor a betrothal gift. Even if our family regrets the marriage, it's a big deal. Just some money, and the girl’s family would not dare to object if she thought about it.”

The old lady of the Duan family said these words lightly. Of course, from her standpoint, these words are reasonable.

But Tang Yanxiu...

That's right, Mo Qianrui's family might not dare to object, but he was definitely killed by Mo Qianrui!

Swallowing with difficulty, Tang Yanxiu decided to fight to the end.

"Grandmother, Jiqiu's cousin is very nice, but unfortunately I don't like her. Let's let this marriage go."

"Why is this? Yanxiu, although your uncle is a concubine, it is because he was the youngest child of your mother's generation, and his biological mother died of dystocia. Although he was a concubine, he was raised under my knees since childhood. There is no difference between being born in the first place. Our Duan family is a merchant family, and your uncle still has the ability to run a business, and he is also very decent. When you gave birth to her, you fell into the root cause of the disease. After your two cousins ​​delivered the remains of your brother-in-law and his son, you just left. Now, when your brother-in-law leaves, brother Yu will go with him Now, Jiqiu is the only one left in his room..."

Tang Yanxiu was in cold sweat.

He admits that his cousin Jiqiu is very pitiful. First, he lost his father and elder brother, and now his mother who has been lingering on the sick bed is gone.But it is too exaggerated to say that she has no relatives by her side.

Regardless of the other things, as far as he knew, Jiqiu had already been sent to the old lady of the Duan family after the news of his uncle's death came because his aunt was seriously ill.

The old lady of the Duan family is the most valuable woman in the entire Duan family and even the entire Luyang County.And these days, being raised under the grandmother's knees is called a blessing, and it is also a great honor.The old lady of this family didn't even raise her own granddaughter. Now that Jiqiu is raising her by her side, not only will she not be criticized for not having a mother, but she can also improve her status.After all, Jiqiu's biological father was a concubine, while his mother was a concubine in the family, but she came from a small family.

Of course, no matter how you say it, losing your parents and elder brother in a short period of time is something worthy of sympathy.But sympathy belongs to sympathy, you can't let him make a promise with your body, right?
Besides, Tang Yanxiu is very clear about the consequences of cousins ​​getting married.

If a deformed child is born after marriage, wouldn't Jiqiu live in pain all his life?

Considering the receptivity of the old lady of the Duan family, Tang Yanxiu euphemistically explained the consequences of her cousin.

"Grandmother, I heard that the children of my cousins ​​are not very good. Many children are born with extremely weak bones and cannot support them at all. Even if they are supported, most of them are still sick."

Never thought about it, but the old lady of the Duan family didn't care at all.

"This child was weak and sickly at birth. It must be a mother's problem. But Jiqiu's small body is fine. If it weren't for her being too strong, her mother wouldn't have had a difficult delivery. It completely hurt her body. But Jiqiu's body is very good, and she has never had a cold in Dalian since she was a child. If you are worried about Yan Xiu's health, then my grandmother is here to guarantee you. She is only seven years old now. Even if we get married at the age of 14, there are still seven years left. Grandmother will definitely take care of her bones and make her healthy and healthy."

Tang Yanxiu was completely speechless, he never worried about this problem, okay?

"Grandmother, that's not what I mean. I mean, my middle cousin's kid isn't very good."

"What's wrong? Yanxiu, don't worry, you and Jiqiu are a perfect match. You are her aunt's son, and she is your uncle's daughter. It's good for this aunt to marry her sister-in-law. My eyes are so bitter. If it was the other way around, grandma wouldn't have told you so much."

Is there such a reason?
Tang Yanxiu was almost dizzy, at least from his knowledge, he couldn't distinguish the two situations mentioned by the old lady of the Duan family.

It would be best for the son of the aunt's family to marry the daughter of the uncle's family.

On the other hand, if the son of the uncle's family wants to marry the daughter of the aunt's family, is it extremely bad?
What logic!

Taking a deep breath, Tang Yanxiu really couldn't help it.It's just that the old lady of the Duan family treated him very well, and he didn't want to lose face to the old lady, so he could only say with a bitter face: "Grandmother, I don't like Jiqiu, so let's let this marriage go."

"You kid..."

Perhaps it was because Tang Yanxiu looked distressed when he spoke, or because Tang Yanxiu was the grandson of the old lady of the Duan family after all, and Jiqiu had no blood relationship with her.In the end, the old lady of the Duan family sighed and shook her head, but she didn't intend to embarrass Tang Yanxiu any more.

Do you think this is the end?
Big mistake!

Jiqiu has no parents, and most of her grandparents are facing Tang Yanxiu, but she still has her grandparents and uncles.

As soon as the old lady of the Duan family turned off the fire, a large group of female relatives came the next day.

The visitors are female relatives, so naturally the female relatives of the Duan family will entertain them.Because the eldest wife of the Duan family is in charge of the housekeeping, and now is the season change, there are a lot of things going on outside the house, and the group of female relatives is headed by Jiqiu's grandmother, so naturally the old lady of the Duan family will entertain them.

Jiqiu's grandfather's surname is Wang, and Wang's family is naturally also a merchant. Of course, it is completely incomparable with Duan's family, but it can be regarded as talking in Luyang County.

The Wang family has many heirs. In Jiqiu's mother's generation, there are nine descendants, and the first eight are males. Only Jiqiu's mother has a daughter.In addition, Jiqiu's mother has many brothers who were concubine, as well as cousins ​​of the same generation.But when it comes to daughters, no matter whether they are descended from a concubine or a concubine, or from an uncle's family, she is still the only one.

Because of this, the Wang family is a well-known patriarch in Luyang County.

And Jiqiu's mother herself is also very good, not only outstanding in appearance, graceful in figure, excellent in knowledge, but also very proficient in housekeepers and directors.It can be seen that the Wang family has worked hard to raise their daughter.

If not, the Duan family would not have agreed to this marriage at the beginning.

One must know that even though Tang Yanxiu's uncle was a concubine, the family background of the Duan family was much higher than that of the Wang family.Moreover, his uncle was still raised under his aunt's knees, and he did not live apart from other concubine brothers after he became an adult, but has been helping the family to cook the shop.To put it bluntly, Jiqiu's mother was the one who favored this marriage.

However, it doesn't make any sense to say that now.

For the Wang family, the pro-daughter whom everyone had hoped for was gone, as was her husband-in-law and eldest son.Even though the Duan family's principle of handling things would not treat the granddaughter of the Wang family harshly, the old lady of the Wang family still held her heart together tightly.

This time she came here just to ask the old lady of the Duan family how to arrange for her only granddaughter.

The old lady of the Duan family smiled wryly.

She was about the same age as the old lady of the Wang family, and they had known each other before they even got married.Of course, it's just an acquaintance, not a handkerchief acquaintance.There is still a big gap between the two natal families, and it was only after they became in-laws that they became warmer.

I still remember that when she married the old man of the Duan family, she gave birth to her eldest son in the second year of marriage, but because she hurt her body while giving birth, she never conceived for more than 20 years.It was not until she was forty-six that she became pregnant with a young girl.But this young girl also passed away at an early age, leaving only an only son, Tang Yanxiu.

The old lady of the Wang family was much luckier than her.

After getting married, she became pregnant the next year, and then kept holding the two for three years, and gave birth to eight sons in one breath.Afterwards, she rested for a few years, until the second year after the old lady of the Duan family gave birth to her first daughter, she also became pregnant, and that was Jiqiu's mother.

The old lady of the Duan family can fully understand the mentality of the old lady of the Wang family, but she can't force Tang Yanxiu, can she?
However, the old lady of the Wang family only came to the door after inquiring clearly.

If you want to blame, you can only blame her for talking too much earlier.

"Oh, that's all. Yunshang, you go to the outer courtyard, and invite Master Biao to come."
