Let’s not mention Jiang Nuan’s side, let’s just talk about Meng’s side.
The blind date seemed to be done, but a Sang mother appeared in the middle of the process, completely messing it up.
Meng was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. When Jiang Qing heard the news, she came over and advised her: "Mom, don't be angry. Don't be like those country people."
Jiang Qing usually gets along with Jiang Nuan, one sister on the left and the other on the right, but secretly she only calls Jiang Nuan a country girl.
"This is something I have planned with a lot of effort," Meng shook her head and sighed, "Your father will definitely be disappointed."
"This country girl is too ignorant of promotion. She is just a fish-eyed girl. She really thinks she is the apple of someone's eye! It is her good fortune to marry into the Hong family. She does not think about who among the famous families in the capital would want to marry her.
!" Jiang Qing really felt that Jiang Nuan was useless.
"You should only say these words in front of me. You must not do it in front of others, even your father." Meng is a reserved person and does not like to vent his emotions wantonly.
"I understand, mother, don't be angry." Jiang Qing put her arm around Meng's shoulders and gently shook her, "That woman named Sang, we can beat her and scold her. If it doesn't work, call someone."
Yazi came and sold her out."
"Remember what mother taught you, there are some things you should not say, be careful of the trouble that comes from your mouth." At this time, Meng put Jiang Nuan's matter aside and taught her daughter, "A woman should care about her own reputation. Do you think
What do people in this world live for? You are still young, so you should think twice before you act."
At this time, a girl named Si'er walked in and reported to Meng: "Madam, the eldest lady and the others are packing their things and going back to their hometown!"
"Just leave, who cares!" Jiang Qing just said it, but Meng stopped her with her eyes. Thinking of what her mother had just taught her, she regretted her mistake and slowly lowered her head.
"Stop Miss, I'll be there right away."
I have to say that this Meng is really not an ordinary person.
If it were anyone else, they would either severely punish Ichiban Sang's mother, or let them leave.
But not only did she not let Jiang Nuan leave, she also went to comfort him herself.
Meng was born in the Earl of Marquis Mansion when he was a child. When he was a teenager, his family was deprived of his title and exiled, and he suffered a lot.
At that time, Jiang Nuan's father Jiang Yinzhi happened to be the county magistrate in the place where they were exiled, so Meng made him a concubine.
After that, Jiang Nuan's mother died of illness. Meng gave birth to her son Jiang Hui after Jiang Qing, and Jiang Yinzhi helped her upright.
Later, the Meng family regained its prosperity, and Jiang Yinzhi also relied on the Yue family for promotion, and became a sixth-rank official in the capital.
Both Meng and Jiang Yinzhi were ambitious and unwilling to settle for their current official positions.
Although Meng's natal family has the title of Marquis and Earl, they do not hold important positions. Moreover, she knows that a woman's natal family is a woman's support in her husband's family, and her husband's family must be prominent in the outside world.
Moreover, the fate of children is also closely related to it, and it cannot be careless.
If he relied on the Meng family's connections, he could help Jiang Yinzhi take a further step in his official career. But Meng felt that even in that case, favors would still have to be used, and no amount of gifts should be given.
But if you use Jiang Nuan, you will not only achieve your good reputation as a virtuous person, but you will also be able to marry into the Hong family, killing two birds with one stone.
Now that the Hong family's marriage was ruined, all her hard work had been wasted. Of course she was unhappy, but she couldn't lose more because of it.
If Jiang Nuan were to leave just like that, her reputation would be damaged.
Outsiders will definitely laugh at her for stealing the chicken but losing the rice, and even say that she is just using Jiang Nuan as her stepdaughter.
What's more, if Jiang Nuan is allowed to leave like this, wouldn't all his previous efforts be in vain? Meng will never allow himself to lose completely.
As long as Jiang Nuan doesn't leave here, it's only a matter of time before she is grasped in the palm of his hand and plotted against her.
It was her miscalculation this time, and she won't let her get her wish next time.
So Meng tidied up her appearance in the mirror and took her maid to see Jiang Nuan.
At this time, Jiang Nuan had already packed out a box of clothes and was asking Lingdang to sort out the things given by Meng and the others and put them aside.
Meng cried as soon as she entered the door. She walked over and took Jiang Nuan's hand and said, "Nuan, I know you blame me in your heart. But you can't just walk away willfully. You have to listen to my confession."
Mother Sang stopped her: "Madam, there is no need to waste your breath. We country people should go back to the countryside."
"Mother Sang, I know why you treat me like this," Meng said without worry or annoyance, "You feel that you are wholeheartedly for An Nuan, and I am plotting against her, so you feel confident."
Mother Sang snorted coldly when she heard this and did not answer.
Meng continued: "But good intentions may not necessarily lead to good things. Take today's incident as an example. You disturbed the Hong family's marriage, but you also ruined A Nuan's reputation. If you make such a fuss, what will be said outside
.There are limits to both you and me. The one who is most affected is A Nuan.
Our family is just a sixth-rank official. Standing on Ziyang Street and throwing a stone can hit an official with a higher rank than ours. As a matron, what I am most worried about is whether my children's marriage will be successful or not. The Hong family
Although the second young master is in a weaker health, I heard that in the past year or two, he has been cured due to the treatment of famous doctors. Although I have never seen him, I have.
I took a fancy to the fact that their elders are generous and gentle in their behavior, and A-Nuan will not be offended when she marries her. In addition, her husband is older than her and knows how to care for her. Besides, I have always felt that A-Nuan is a lucky person, and she will marry her.
Everything will go as planned and nothing bad will happen.
Having said that, we think our girls are very good, but in the eyes of outsiders, it may not be so. We are not the emperor's daughters and have no worries about getting married. How can we find a perfect marriage? The girl wants to run away, but she doesn't want to think about it.
, even if you go back, can you stop the comments of others? What's more, going back just a few months ago will only cause trouble to Aunt Yu's family. They are really kind and kind, and our Jiang family will be grateful for it for the rest of our lives. How can we return it?
Can you cause trouble for others again?"
I have to say that this Meng is really eloquent. Mother Sang wanted to give her a few words, but she didn't know where to start.
Meng calmed down and said, "People say that a belly is as heavy as a mountain, and I never dared to think of replacing your biological mother. But you know how I have treated you since you came to Beijing.
To take a step back, I just didn't treat you well and tricked you here. I coaxed your father into getting you an unsatisfactory marriage. Let alone one sangma, there were ten sangmas, either beaten or sold. Is it really true?
Can’t we handle it?”
"But you shouldn't hide this from me and catch me off guard." Jiang Nuan said gloomily.
Meng couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and said: "Not only did you get caught off guard, but it really caught me off guard. Originally, I said I was just a guest today, and I wanted to meet you by the way. So I just told you yes.
There are distinguished guests coming. After all, the horoscope has not been revealed yet. I am afraid that you will be embarrassed if I tell you too early. I am also afraid that this matter will not work out in the end and you will feel embarrassed. Who would have thought that they would actually settle down? The situation at that time was not good for me, so I refused.
.You are chasing people like a pot of fire, how can I pour cold water on them?"
Meng did her best to stabilize Jiang Nuan's master and servant, and then ordered the maid: "Ask the new Shandong cook to make something delicious for the eldest lady. It's already past noon, so I'm afraid she's hungry."
