Jiang Ancheng glared at Jiang Zhan: "Are you embarrassing like this?"
Jiang Zhan touched his head.
If your hair is not messy, what's the shame?
Jiang Si smiled at Jiang Zhan and said, "Second brother, I want to eat Cai Ji Tang Bao."
Caiji Guantangbao is a century-old brand, separated from Dongping Bofu by two streets and near Kangdefang where Anguo Gongfu is located.
In the previous life, Ji Chongyi and Qiao Niang did not make such a big disturbance when they fell into the water, and the Anguo Government easily suppressed the scandal. When the marriage between the two families was advanced, many people even guessed that there was something wrong with her.
When she was young and ignorant, she just wanted to marry a high door and exhale. Later, she realized that the dark loss is not so delicious.
After the trouble last night, although Ji Chongyi’s matter has not yet reached the Dongping Bofu, it must have spread from Kangdefang. At this time, the second brother went to Caiji to buy soup dumplings, and he would definitely hear the wind.
"Sister Si wants to eat soup dumplings? I just want to eat them too. Wait, I'll go buy them." Jiang Zhan didn't mention the matter of going to Cixintang to ask for peace. He dusted his body and hurried out. After going, he walked a few steps and returned, sneering at Jiang Ancheng.
Jiang Ancheng's brows suddenly turned into Chuan words: "What?"
Jiang Zhan stretched out his hand: "My son hasn't had a lot of money lately, so my father will put it on his head."
"Go!" Jiang Ancheng took out a piece of silver from his waist purse and threw it into Jiang Zhan's arms, gritted his teeth.
Jiang Zhan slipped away and ran to the courtyard gate and shouted: "Sister Si is waiting for me."
Although there was still a cynical smile on his face, his eyes were flying, like Jiang Si hadn't seen it in years.
"I'm waiting for my second brother in Haitangju."
Jiang Si went to Cixintang with Jiang Ancheng.
A Fu, the maidservant in the Charity Hall, said to the two of them: "Master, four girls, and the old lady are meeting guests, please tell me your maid."
Meeting guests so early? Surprise flashed across Jiang Ancheng's face.
Jiang Si gently sniffed, Ruoyuowu's fragrance came.
The scent became more subtle and uncommon. Jiang Si stood outside the house but smelled it all at once. It was gardenia.
Anguo's wife Guo, her former sister-in-law, liked Gardenia very much.
It stands to reason that it is impossible for ordinary people to smell the fragrance of the people in the house while standing in this position, but Jiang Si is different.
She had a keen sense of smell, and later lived in southern Xinjiang. Because she resembled the dead granddaughter of the Wu Miao elder, she lived as that girl.
The elder of the Wu Miao clan is an old woman who can't see her age. There are many magical things. Based on her outstanding smell, she taught her a strange art. Not to mention that she can accurately distinguish the body fragrance of different people. It is a gust of wind, even It can be judged whether rain is coming by the subtle difference in wind.
Knowing that Mr. Guo's wife, Mrs. Guo, was inside, Jiang Si quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after, the maid Afu turned back and said to Jiang Ancheng: "Master, old lady invites you in."
Her gaze fell on Jiang Si with a bit of complexity: "Four girls, you can drink a cup of hot tea in the penthouse."
"Father, then I'll wait outside first." Jiang Si bowed her knees to Jiang Ancheng.
Jiang Ancheng followed Ah Fu and saw a woman sitting opposite the old lady Feng.
The woman was about 30 years old, she had a pretty face, and her slightly long eyes showed a bit of shrewdness.
Jiang Ancheng became more and more strange.
Since the mother was serving a female guest, how did she tell him to come in?
"Is this uncle?" The woman stood up.
Mrs. Feng nodded: "It's Si Yatou's father. Boss, this is Mrs. Anguo, who is here to discuss marriage today."
"Isn't the date already set?"
Mrs. Feng glanced at Guo.
Guo's face was ashamed: "Something happened last night. The father-in-law and the mother-in-law meant that they wanted to marry the four girls earlier..."
"Why is this?" Jiang Ancheng's face was dark.
Generally scheduled marriages are suddenly advanced, and there will always be rumors. This has no effect on the man, but it is not good for the woman.
Although Guo felt embarrassed, he knew that he couldn't keep it from last night, so he said embarrassedly: "My uncle is not sensible. I went to Moyou Lake to play last night and accidentally fell into the water"
Regardless of the rumors outside, the Guogong Mansion will never admit that the brother-in-law and a woman were killed in love and jumped into the lake. This is really shameful.
Jiang Ancheng interrupted Guo's words with a black face: "What does your third son's fall into the water have to do with the marriage ahead of schedule? Isn't it just a sigh of relief that I want my daughter to marry?"
"Uncle misunderstood. Although my uncle was frightened, it was not a major problem." Guo's heart was unhappy.
If it weren't for the little uncle who was fainted and did that kind of thing, why would she have been doing a little procrastination in the little mansion.
"Then why advance the marriage?" Jiang Ancheng asked nonchalantly.
The three children have long lost their relatives, and he can't afford to be careless about marriage.
Jiang Ancheng’s aggressive tone made the Guo clan, who was accustomed to being sought after by everyone, more unhappy, but his face did not show the slightest: "Even though my uncle is not a serious problem, there was a woman who fell into the water with him last night... After discussing it, I want the four girls to pass the door early..."
"There is another woman?" Jiang Ancheng's face was as cold as a layer of ice, "Who is that woman?"
Guo was annoyed by Jiang Ancheng’s attitude, thinking that Mrs. Dongping had already acquiesced in the attitude just now, and simply said:
It’s true that my uncle met that woman before. Of course, uncle can rest assured, uncle is just Young and ignorant, his in-laws will take good care of him in the future, that woman—"
"Retire!" Jiang Ancheng didn't want to listen anymore, spit out two words coldly.
Guo was stunned.
Did she get it wrong? What did Uncle Dongping just say?
Retire?
Guo's only found it ridiculous.
It is a good thing that Dongping Bofu can make a marriage with Anguo Gongfu even with a lantern, so Dongping Bo is so lightheartedly that he quit marriage?
"Uncle, don't worry, wait until I finish talking--"
"Retire!" Jiang Ancheng said simply and neatly.
He waited for a fart, can this woman still vomit ivory from her mouth?
"Old lady, look--" The Guo family reluctantly looked at Mrs. Feng.
Dare to love Dongping uncle is a stunned young man, this kind of person can accidentally save the life of his father-in-law, otherwise there is no such relationship.
Fortunately, Mrs. Dong Ping Bo can handle it clearly, and her pro-Dong Ping Bo always listens to the old lady.
"Boss, you always have to listen to the wife of the son of the world. The marriage of the two is a big matter, how can you quit?" Mrs. Feng said solemnly.
"It is precisely because marriage is a major event that I can't push my daughter into the fire pit!"
"Uncle's words are over. That woman will be a concubine at best, and she won't shake the status of the fourth girl and the third grandmother at all--"
"Retire!" Jiang Ancheng choked back after Guo's words.
Guo said indifferently: "Uncle, we still need to ask the old lady what this matter means?"
Jiang Ancheng sneered: "Mrs. Shizi is from a good background, and the education she wants to come to is not bad. Then I ask you, what is important about marriage?"
"It's the order of my parents, the matchmaker's words." Guo blurted out.
"That's it, I'm a real father, is there a problem with retiring?"
