Qiu Mingcheng was also surprised and rushed forward to support Mrs. Qiu: "Why is mother out?"
After Mrs. Qiu's stroke, her speech was a little slurred, far less clear than before, and the muscles on her face were also a little stiff. After pulling hard, she smiled: "Rou'er Jiji, how can I, a grandmother, not come here?"
Qiu Mingcheng has always been filial, but he was very moved when he saw his old mother still insisting on watching the ceremony. He turned around and asked his eldest daughter-in-law Mu to serve her old mother. Mrs. Qiu had already opened her mouth first: "Ms. Jiang!"
Jiang's eyelids twitched, and she responded with a meek expression, stepping forward to support Mrs. Qiu.
Mrs. Qiu glanced at Jiang: "You are right next to me."
This sentence is quite clear.
It is only natural for a mother-in-law to let her daughter-in-law take care of her. In front of Qiu Mingcheng, Mrs. Jiang had no choice but to meekly comply. But she was very angry in her heart.
This damn old godly woman! She's already like this. If she doesn't take good care of herself on the bed, what else is she doing out there? She has been looking forward to the day that she can show up in front of others for several months. But now, she can only stay
There is nothing you can do next to the old godmother.
Mrs. Qiu was helped into the inner hall. After saying a few words, she was already a little tired, so she rested with half-closed eyes. Reluctantly, Mrs. Jiang stood next to Mrs. Qiu. She watched helplessly as Mrs. Mu was full of energy.
Going out to say hello, Mrs. Jiang was extremely upset.
However, Qiu Mingcheng also specifically asked: "Ms. Jiang, take good care of your mother."
Jiang held back her anger and responded in a low voice.
Qiu Mingcheng was still uneasy, and ordered the housekeeper next to Mrs. Qiu: "You will guard mother every step of the way today. If anyone dares to contradict mother and make her unhappy, just tell me."
The two stewardesses responded respectfully.
Jiang looked up at Qiu Mingcheng in disbelief.
What does he mean?
Is this because she wants the two servants to look at her?
Qiu Mingcheng quickly stood up and walked out without looking at Jiang's expression.
After all, Qiu Rou was his biological daughter. She knelt down, cried and begged in front of him, and he couldn't bear to refuse. However, this did not mean that he would allow Jiang's scheme to scheme against Shen You, Feng Shaojun and his wife.
Feng Shaojun's willingness to come today has given the Qiu family enough face. He can't let the Jiang family make a mistake and ruin this last bit of face and affection.
So, Feng Shaojun, who was ready for a "valiant fight", entered the inner hall of the Qiu family and was surprised to find Mrs. Qiu sitting at the top, with the "weak" Mrs. Jiang standing beside Mrs. Qiu, and behind her
The two stewardesses stared at Jiang with keen eyes.
...Qiu Mingcheng is indeed very clear-sighted.
Feng Shaojun praised Qiu Mingcheng in his heart, stepped forward with a smile, and greeted Mrs. Qiu: "Junior, I would like to say hello to Mrs. Qiu. I haven't seen you for a long time. Is the old lady feeling better?"
Mrs. Qiu responded with some difficulty: "It's okay. These old bones can still last for a few more years."
In front of everyone, Feng Shaojun would not lose his etiquette and politely bowed to Mr. Jiang: "This junior has met Mrs. Qiu."
The female relatives sitting aside looked over one after another. For example, the wives of several military commanders and the in-laws of the Qiu family all wanted to watch the fun.
Jiang secretly gritted his teeth.
She had already planned to take advantage of Feng Shaojun's visit to force Feng Shaojun to call her mother-in-law in public and show off her mother-in-law's prestige. For the sake of Shen You's reputation, Feng Shaojun had to bow his head.
It's better now, Mrs. Qiu is sitting in front of her, with the stewardess watching her closely behind her. If she talks nonsense, I'm afraid she will never leave the yard again.
Jiang forced herself to swallow the resentment in her heart and squeezed out a few words: "Four young ladies, please rise."
The moment the fourth young lady said this, it meant that all Jiang's plans had come to nothing.
Feng Shaojun smiled calmly, found a seat and sat down.
It is absolutely true that a wife is valued by her husband. Among the female relatives who came to watch the ceremony today, there are many women in their thirties and forties. In terms of the official status of her husband-in-law, Shen You is not the highest. However, Shen You is a close official of the emperor, and Jane is here The popular man in the emperor's heart. All the female relatives expressed their goodwill and chatted with Feng Shaojun.
Feng Shaojun responded appropriately, chatted and laughed with everyone, and unknowingly became the center of attention.
Seeing Feng Shaojun making such a show of being in the limelight, Jiang's heart almost bled with hatred, but there was nothing she could do.
Soon, the hair-raising ceremony began.
Qiu Rou completely inherited the appearance of her biological father Qiu Mingcheng, and her appearance was really not outstanding. Fortunately, she was in her prime, and she had specially dressed up today, so she was pretty and pleasant.
There were many female relatives who came to watch the ceremony, and every family had unmarried sons and nephews. I thought about it a little bit. Sure enough, someone was interested.
The Qiu family is considered to be a family of mid-level military generals, and Qiu Mingcheng's official career is relatively smooth. However, Qiu Rou's biological mother, the Jiang family, is annoying. Fortunately, she is marrying a daughter-in-law, and the Jiang family cannot follow her daughter. There is also Shen You, an older brother with a bright future. …
Someone was asking about Qiu Rou, so Jiang was naturally happy. However, it turned out that the two women who were asking were both the wives of fourth- and fifth-grade military commanders. Jiang was not happy in her heart, and ignored her with a sullen face.
People who were originally interested in getting married were also annoyed by Jiang's attitude, and they all stopped talking angrily.
Mrs. Qiu was angry, she glared at Mr. Jiang, and then took the initiative to talk to the two women. However, Mrs. Qiu was not able to speak well after her stroke, so the two female relatives kept talking to each other for shame. They each made up their minds. Even if they couldn't find a wife, they would never visit the Qiu family.
Feng Shaojun watched the excitement for half a day.
After the banquet was over, Feng Shaojun was the first to stand up and say goodbye.
Mu Shi smiled hurriedly and sent Feng Shaojun out of Qiu Mansion. It wasn't until Feng Shaojun got on the carriage and left that Mu Shi let out a sigh of relief.
…
An hour later, all the guests left.
Mrs. Qiu had been out for half a day and was very tired. With the help of her servants, she tremblingly returned to the courtyard to rest. She just wanted to settle accounts with Jiang, but she was powerless now.
Qiu Mingcheng, on the other hand, knew that Jiang had annoyed the two female relatives in public, so he was quite angry and went to Jiang's yard.
Jiang was holding her daughter Qiu Rou's hand and whispered: "Don't marry into the families of low-level and vulgar generals. Marrying into a girl's family is like reincarnation. You must open your eyes wide and choose a good family." No matter what, you have to be above the fourth rank. Civil servants are better than military generals. It would be best if you can marry into a noble family or a clan relative."
Before he finished speaking, Qiu Mingcheng came in with a livid face.
Qiu Rou was startled and stood up suddenly: "Dad!"
Jiang's heart skipped a beat, she calmed herself down, and forced out a smile: "Why are you here, Master?"
Qiu Mingcheng gave Jiang a deep look, then looked at Qiu Rou: "You go out first. I have something to say to your mother alone."
Qiu Rou was frightened by Qiu Mingcheng's anger and retreated obediently.
