On the day of the banquet, the eldest son of the family was almost assassinated. Such a big movement naturally alarmed everyone. Just now, the male and female guests were separated, but now that something happened, everyone couldn't care less, and swarmed around.
As soon as I came over, I heard Mr. Tang’s words.
In front of everyone, Mr. Tang couldn't help but reject his son's proposal. He just pondered for a moment and said: "Marriage matters need to be considered in the long run. Even if you fall in love with this Miss Jiang, you have to ask the elders in her family what they want.
.Also, your health is so bad, you can’t be a drag on others. Before getting engaged, you have to find a long-lasting horoscope..."
This can be regarded as leaving a way out for himself. If he feels that this girl is not suitable, he will say that her horoscopes are not compatible.
Tang Hongan nodded: "You all listen to dad."
But no matter what, the young master of the Tang family asked for marriage in public, and there was a 50% chance that Jiang Yuniang would be the Tang family's wife. When everyone dispersed, they all looked at Chu Yunli in the wrong way.
The eldest son of the Tang family is indeed a sick man, but he is also the son of a wealthy businessman. Who does Jiang Yuniang count?
To put it bluntly, if Tang Hongan hadn't been so weak, Jiang Yuniang would never be worthy of him.
After this, the remaining people who didn't know Jiang Yuniang also looked at Chu Yunli several times.
This interruption caused the banquet to start in advance. When Chu Yunli arrived at the banquet, she did not focus on the food, but looked around, trying to find George Kun.
After watching for a long time, no one was seen. Instead, a little maid from the side came over: "Miss Jiang, someone is looking for you outside."
This was the Tang family's own little maid. Chu Yunli suspected that the person who wanted to see her was Tang Hong'an, so she stood up immediately.
Before I had even taken two steps, I heard someone commenting over there that Mr. Tang had chosen a son-in-law for himself. He was a son-in-law of the Su family who was also a wealthy businessman. His appearance and character were not outstanding, but he was a perfect match.
Chu Yunli listened for a while, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. After stepping out of the lobby, she saw the maid disappearing on the side path, and she chased after her.
"Yu Niang."
Hearing the familiar male voice, Chu Yunli turned around: "George Kun? Are you really here?" When she said this, she smiled like a flower: "What, have you heard about Miss Tang's engagement?"
George Kun looked unhappy: "I want to say that the Tang family is not as simple as you think. Tang Hong'an has been ill for many years and will not live long at all. Don't stir up this muddy water."
"That's my business." Chu Yunli said bluntly: "It has nothing to do with you, you should just worry about yourself!"
George Kun wanted to say a few more words, but he heard stones rolling down from the rockery not far away. His expression changed slightly, and he took a few steps back to open the distance between them. The next moment, the maid next to Tang Hongyi appeared.
I saw him in the distance and hurriedly stepped forward: "Hurry up, the girl is looking for you."
"Okay." George Kun agreed immediately and left.
Then he moved quickly, and the maid still noticed Chu Yunli not far away from him, frowned suddenly, and said in a bad tone: "Are you still messing with this woman? If the girl finds out, she will be angry!"
George Kun looked ugly for a moment. A maid dared to talk to him like this. She clearly didn't take him seriously. In the final analysis, it was because he had not become the uncle of the Tang family. Otherwise, he would not have had the courage to rely on the maid.
Dare to disrespect him.
He didn't want to cause trouble, so he explained casually: "We just met here by chance, and I just advised her not to climb high branches."
After hearing this, the maid's face softened. She looked at Chu Yunli and snorted coldly: "Even if my young master is ill, not just any cat or dog can be worthy of him. Some people should be self-aware..."
Chu Yunli ignored the maid at all, turned a deaf ear to her, looked at George Kun and said with a faint smile: "You don't let me climb high branches, but I am a good climber. What do you think this is?"
George Kun's expression changed slightly. In front of the maid, he couldn't argue with her, so he just urged: "Girl, you have been waiting for a long time, let's go quickly!"
After the two left, Chu Yunli took another way back to the lobby. As soon as she walked outside, she saw Tang Hongyi grabbing Master Tang's sleeve and about to cry: "Dad, I don't want to marry Su Pan, I have a sweetheart."
of."
Beside her, George Kun's face had turned pale. But he still held on and said: "Please help me, sir. I promise you, if I can marry Hong Yi, I will definitely hold her in the palm of my hand in the future. I will never
Let her suffer no injustice at all."
This was outside the lobby, and many guests looked over. Mr. Tang's expression was very ugly. He knew that what his daughter did in private was too shameful, so he was anxious to find him a husband to marry him off to.
As a result, Tang Hongyi did this trick in front of the guests.
Mr. Tang wanted to scold his daughter, but felt embarrassed, so he just said sternly: "Go back and reflect."
The Tang Dynasty hosted a banquet, and these things happened, and the banquet ended hastily. I heard that Mr. Su looked very unhappy when he left, and even refused the horse stool brought by the servants of the Tang family. He lifted up the hem of his clothes and got into the carriage.
Chu Yunli rented a carriage, but because her status was not high enough, the carriage was queued at the back and she couldn't squeeze in front of it. She didn't mind and walked back by herself.
After walking a few steps, a luxurious carriage stopped beside him. The curtain opened and George Kun poked his head out: "Mother Yu, don't you have a carriage?"
Chu Yunli didn't bother to talk to him at all. It was only at this moment that she realized the role of George Kun's appearance at the banquet. It was probably the reason for Tang Hongyi's rejection of the marriage.
With such an identity...he will definitely be dealt with by Master Tang later on.
Because the banquet ended in a hurry, it was still early when we returned home. Others in the Jiang family were braiding flowers. When they saw Chu Yunli entering the door, Jiang's mother asked casually: "Your father just sent someone back to ask where you have been."
She saw her daughter's outfit clearly and said, "You went to visit another house? Which house is this?"
The Jiang family is used to living a hard life, and now they are dealing with those wealthy businessmen. Every time they see their daughter receiving gifts, they feel extremely heartbroken. The most important thing is that they don’t know when they will be able to take back these gifts. Mother Jiang couldn’t help but say
: "I heard that many people have approached you recently to discuss marriage. Don't reject them all. If you meet the right one, try to meet him. You are still young... If you don't look for him, others will think that you want to marry him.
The Qiao family is guarding..."
"There is no need to discuss the marriage." As soon as Chu Yunli said this, the Zhang family members across the street became anxious. She explained: "I have met the right person, and a matchmaker should come to my door later."
Hearing this, Jiang's mother couldn't even take care of the work at hand. She immediately got up and ran to her daughter to look up and down: "What's that person's name? Where does he live? Who else is at home?"
"That's the Tang family I went to today." Chu Yunli paused and said, "That's Tang Hongyi's brother."
"No!" Jiang's mother said without even thinking about it. It was also because she couldn't think deeply about this matter. She only briefly ran it through her mind and thought of many things wrong. She couldn't help but ask: "What if she and George Kunchen become friends?"
Now, will it be awkward for you to live under the same roof in the future? There are so many men in the world. It’s not good for you to marry anyone. Why do you want to mess with her? That’s not a good girl who can do those things.
, the family tradition is definitely not much better. If you become her sister-in-law, you are asking for trouble. To put it bluntly, if you give birth to a daughter in the future, you will also be dragged down by such an aunt..."
After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Mrs. Du also felt that it was inappropriate.
Chu Yunli smiled brightly: "Tang Hongyi doesn't like me. If I become her sister-in-law, she will have to respect me. It will make her miserable!"
Jiang Mu: "..."
"That's what I said. But, Yu Niang, your life is so long, you have to let go of what you should let go of! If you keep immersed in the past, how can you live your life?"
I have to say that Jiang Mu is a good mother. However, there must be a fight to the death between Jiang Yuniang and Tang Hongyi.
"Actually, it's just a way to cause trouble for her." Chu Yunli said seriously: "Mom, Mr. Tang is a good person. I saved his life today. With this life-saving grace, he will definitely not treat me badly in the future.
I."
Jiang's mother: "...No way, they are siblings from the same mother. They are biological brothers and sisters. How can you, a foreigner, do it to a blood relative? No matter what kind of kindness it is, you will definitely be wronged in the end!"
"Mom, they are half-mother," Chu Yunli emphasized: "There are still people in the house today who want to push Mr. Tang off the rockery."
Jiang's mother was stunned.
She has listened to the opera and knows the secrets of wealthy families. Although she has never seen it, she has heard a lot. From her daughter's few words, she has already made up many grievances and hatreds in her mind.
Finally, he solemnly said: "That's even more impossible. Girls from ordinary families like us can't fight against those who have grown up in conspiracies since childhood."
Chu Yunli listened to her persuasion, her eyebrows softened, and she whispered: "Mother, Mr. Tang has a good appearance and a good family background. It was me who fell in love with him."
Jiang Mu: "..."
"You..." She pointed at her daughter: "Why are you so unsatisfied? You have a bad taste in whoever you choose, so you just jump into the fire pit."
The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. She turned her head and looked at her son: "Something serious has happened. Go call your father back quickly and let's discuss it together."
Jiang Lin was silent. Before he got up and went out, he heard a carriage stop outside, and then there was a knock on the door.
There have been a lot of things going on in the Jiang family recently, and many people have come to the door. Some people come to inquire about the Qiao Jiang family, and some people come to the door and want to buy wine. Jiang Lin has become accustomed to it from being nervous at the beginning, and is quite calm when he opens the door.
smoothly.
Standing at the door was a woman from a wealthy family, with a smile on her face, and a large group of maids behind her. The maids were holding trays in their hands. On the trays were placed large and small boxes, as well as some materials, etc.
things.
The Jiang family had never seen such a battle before. The mother-in-law bowed slightly and said, "May I ask who you are, Mr. Jiang? Miss Jiang saved my young master's life today, and the servants were ordered to come and give the girl a thank you gift. Mr. Jiang is grateful to Miss Jiang."
For my kindness, I also gave a few meeting gifts."
As he spoke, he waved his hand.
The maids filed in and quickly filled the stone table in the yard. There was no space left on the table, so they moved it into the house.
Jiang's mother asked Chu Yunli in a low voice: "I sent so many thank-you gifts at once, is it enough to repay the favor of saving my life?"
Chu Yunli was amused: "Mom, the son of a wealthy family is very valuable. Today he has said that he wants to marry me in front of all the guests. Although Mr. Tang blocked it, I feel that he will not be able to stop him.
.”
Jiang's mother turned to look at her daughter: "That's our young master, what kind of person do you want to marry?"
