The three bowls of tea on the Haitang small table are all cold.
Xu Chunjun held his chin, Cen Yunchu frowned, and Jiang Nuan had a blank face.
All three of them were confused.
"A Nuan, if you think about it again, do you really have no relationship with Mr. Huo before?" Cen Yunchu asked, staring at Jiang Nuan.
"You've asked me eight times," Jiang Nuan remained motionless in the same posture as before, her eyes were dull, and her speech was extremely slow. She said what she repeated several times, "I've seen him three times in total.
Hui, you and Chunjun were present every time, but you were delirious only when we spoke. That was to save you. In fact, I was the only one who spoke, and he didn't say a word."
"A person who has never spoken to you actually wants to marry you. This is too unbelievable." Cen Yunchu rubbed his eyebrows. Jiang Nuan was so naive. If there was any trap here, she would be in doom.
.
"I also think there must be an inside story that we don't know. Otherwise, why would Mr. Huo propose marriage to A-Nuan?" Xu Chunjun was also puzzled. "If he fell in love with A-Nuan at first sight, why didn't he propose marriage earlier?
If he had taken one step ahead of the Zong family, nothing would have happened later."
"That's why I wonder if Zong Tianbao begged him because the Zong family felt sorry for Jiang Nuan and wanted to find a better marriage for her. Zong Tianbao should be in a relationship with Mr. Huo, right? Occasionally I see them together.
Place." Cen Yunchu analyzed.
"But this is a life-long event. Could it be that he agreed as soon as someone asked him to do it?" Xu Chunjun thought it was unreasonable no matter how he thought about it. "It would be understandable if his official position was lower than that of the Zong family. His title is higher than that of the Zong family.
!How can you obey the Zong family’s orders?”
"It's a bit scary to think about it this way. This Huo Tian has always been cold-faced and cold-hearted. Why did he suddenly go to Jiang's house to propose marriage? In the past two years, many people have wanted to get married to him.
He didn't agree with any of them. Some people said he didn't like women, and others said he..." There were some words that Cen Yunchu couldn't say, but the meaning was already obvious.
Because Huo Tian never got married and was not flirtatious with women, everyone suspected that he was not good at that.
Otherwise, why would a vigorous man in his twenties, who is powerful, want to live the life of an ascetic?
Xu Chunjun glanced at Cen Yunchu and said nothing. This was what worried her the most.
She was afraid that Huo Tian's purpose in marrying Jiang Nuan was impure, because she had just been abandoned by the Zong family. Since everyone didn't know what was going on, they would inevitably think that there was something wrong with Jiang Nuan.
If Huo Tian doesn't like women, or is not good at that, but he also wants to take care of his own face, so he will marry a woman with no one to support him to decorate his appearance.
In this way, you can stop others' mouths without causing any worries for yourself.
"Looking at what An Nuan's father and stepmother want, it's natural that they want it. They still treat each other with courtesy. If they get desperate and use force against An Nuan, it will be really difficult for us." Xu Chunjun knew that Jiang Yinzhi and his wife were because they were
Jiang Nuan is a parent in name only, so he has all the inherent advantages.
"The more this happens, the more we have to keep an eye on An Nuan." Cen Yunchu bit his lip and said, "I asked someone to find Chen Qi and ask him to find an opportunity to take the pulse of Huo Tian to see if he has any hidden diseases.
.”
The one sent by Cen Yunchu was an old woman, and a young maid would not be able to say such things.
When Chen Siwen heard this, he thought that only his enemy Cen Yunchu dared to let him do such a thing.
What else could he do besides agree? Thinking that his brother Chen Sijing had a pretty good relationship with Huo Tian, he had to ask him to find a reason to take him to Huo Tian's house, and then wait for an opportunity to act.
Let’s talk about the Jiang family.
Of course Meng was unwilling, and Jiang Qing was even going crazy.
"Is Huo Tian blind? He actually fell in love with that country boy!" She was now the prospective daughter-in-law of the Zong family. Regardless of the honor or disgrace, she had secured the marriage anyway.
Gu Ha
But two days before he was proud, Huo Tian came to her door and proposed to marry Jiang Nuan.
Her mood suddenly deteriorated.
It's like she tried so hard to grab a piece of candy from Jiang Nuan, but in the blink of an eye someone stuffed a handful of candy into Jiang Nuan's hand.
Most of the time, people's happiness and pain come from comparison.
What's more important is that Jiang Qing has always felt that she is better than Jiang Nuan.
The two of them should marry better than Jiang Nuan in terms of talent, appearance or education.
But God seems to be particularly partial to Jiang Nuan, always letting her do good things as if she were lucky.
It’s really crazy!
In fact, how could Meng feel comfortable? But she knew that under the current circumstances, they could not play tricks with Huo Tian.
"Stop saying that. Mr. Huo is pressing hard now, but Jiang Nuan doesn't agree. I really don't know what she thinks." She went to see him several times, but Jiang Nuan just refused.
Even if he agreed, he would not come back.
They didn't care about Jiang Nuan's life or death at all. Whether she went back to her hometown or lived in someone else's house, they would ask about her on the surface, but in fact they didn't care at all.
But now it doesn't work. If she doesn't nod, Huo Tian will continue to put pressure on the Jiang family.
"Then why did Huo Tian marry her?" Jiang Qing was not only jealous but also confused. "Could it be that the two of them have hooked up in private?"
Meng thought for a while and shook her head and said, "It's impossible. Jiang Nuan can't hide things. Besides, she originally wanted to enter the Zong family wholeheartedly."
"Madam, the master is back." A servant came in to report, "He said he fell off his horse. Please go and have a look."
When Meng heard this, she panicked and quickly got up to see her husband.
I saw two servants limping in with Jiang Yinzhi on their backs. Meng quickly stepped forward and asked, "What's going on? Why did it fall?"
Jiang Yinzhi's face looked ugly. Meng had already sent his servants to ask for a doctor. When he saw that there was no one around him, he said, "Huo Tian did it. No, it was Huo Tian's horse that did it."
It turned out that Jiang Yinzhi was walking in front of the court today, and Huo Tian was riding closely behind.
His green-headed melon horse somehow reached out and bit the butt of the maroon horse Jiang Yinzhi was riding.
Jiang Yinzhi's horse was frightened and kicked off, causing Jiang Yinzhi to fall off.
The injury was not serious, no bones were broken, no tendons were broken, but the left butt and thigh were bruised.
"This Huo Tian is too much! You are also an elder, is he planning to marry someone else's daughter?!" Meng's face turned red with anger, "The same goes for that horse, doesn't it have a bridle?
?”
"Forget it! We can't afford to offend you." Jiang Yinzhi sighed helplessly, "Let alone a human being, even the horse was given by the emperor. It's a good thing that he threw me. If he had surprised others,
Ma, we can’t afford to pay for the trouble our family has suffered.”
