Mrs. Chen was also shocked. Why did she go out and bring back such a wild man?
Because of Jiang Chuan, Jiang Xuan's reputation in Qiongzhou City was ruined. Mrs. Chen loved her daughter. Even if Jiang Xuan couldn't marry into a wealthy family, it would not be impossible to find a man from a low-income but motivated husband. With the Chen family and her,
, Jiang Xuan can live a stable and happy life for the rest of her life. She has seen a lot of young men in the past few months, and is just waiting for Jiang Xuan to come back to meet her. Who would have thought that Jiang Xuan would give her such a big 'surprise!'
"Yes, mother, Feng Lian and I have the same mind. If you come to Qiongzhou for me, I will be half of your son from now on."
Jiang Xuan said kind words to Feng Lian in front of Chen and held his arm tightly, just to let Chen see her determination and not to stop the two of them.
However, her appearance would only make Chen feel heartbroken. There were so many good men in Qiongzhou waiting for her to choose. She had to fall in love with a wild man who didn't know where he came from. If she was deceived, Chen would just think about it.
Out of breath.
"Let's talk about it when we get home."
She didn't even give Feng Lian a look, and she didn't recognize this son-in-law.
Jiang Xuan pursed her lips and turned to look at Feng Lian, feeling guilty in her heart.
"I've made you feel wronged. My mother is not usually like this."
Jiang Xuan thought that even if Chen didn't agree, she wouldn't embarrass Feng Lian like this. She was too naive, thinking that Chen, whom she liked, would be willing.
"It's okay. Auntie will see how good I am in the future."
Feng Lian couldn't bear to make her sad and squeezed Jiang Xuan's palm. Chen got on the carriage and saw the movements of the two through the curtain, and her face immediately fell off.
"Jiang Xuan, get in the car."
There were so many people coming and going on the pier, and they were getting close without any scruples. If the ladies from the aristocratic families knew about it, how could Jiang Xuan get married?
"mother……"
Jiang Xuan looked embarrassed. Feng Lian was the person she liked, and she felt very uncomfortable being treated like this by her mother.
"Get in the car and go home!"
"Go quickly."
Feng Lian patted her, and Jiang Xuan turned around and said to him, "When I get home, someone will pick you up. My mother's attitude does not represent mine. Since I have promised you, I will never change it again.
"
"I know."
Feng Lian's chest swelled and hurt. How could his feelings for Jiang Xuan stop just because of Chen's obstruction? He had already come to Qiongzhou with Jiang Xuan and was ready to face all difficulties.
Mrs. Chen was sitting in the carriage with her eyes slightly closed. Jiang Lin saw Jiang Xuan hugging her happily.
"Sister, Lin'er misses you so much."
The two sisters have never been separated for so long, and Jiang Xuan misses her sister very much.
"Sister, don't blame mother. She just wants you to live well. You've been gone for so many days, and mother hasn't had a good night's sleep. She just hopes you can come back safely."
Although Jiang Lin is young, she is very well-behaved and sensible. They no longer have a father. From now on, only the mother and daughter will depend on each other. Jiang Lin does not want her mother and sister to have conflicts because of a man. In Jiang Lin's heart, nothing is as important as family members. In the future, she
Even if you don't get married, don't be separated from your mother and sister.
"Well, Lin'er has grown up."
Jiang Xuan was very emotional. Jiang Chuan's incident made the two sisters grow up quickly, and she didn't know whether it was good or bad.
Ms. Chen next to her had moist eyes. Her two daughters were her heart's content, and she wanted to see them live happily.
Jiang Xuan was still young and didn't know that choosing a man should not just look at his face. The most important thing was his family background. If Feng Lian's parents were still alive and could help them, how could she disagree?
Why.
Mrs. Chen sighed and thought about how to drive Feng Lian away.
…
Chen family.
Chen Wanzhang had already returned to Suzhou with his two younger brothers. Chen Liu got off the boat and came back without stopping. When he got home, he jumped off the horse and his legs were weak. However, Chen Liu could no longer care about so much. He pulled
The boy at the door asked eagerly.
"Is the master at home?"
"Master Liu, you are back!" Chen Liu was a funny and generous person, and the servants of the Chen family liked him very much. Seeing that he came back safely, the smile on the boy's face was genuine.
"Master went out to check the accounts today, but he hasn't come back yet."
"Then when will he return? I have something important to tell the master."
Chen Liu was anxious. Although Feng Lian couldn't run away, he knew how much Chen Wanzhang and his wife cared about their young master, so Chen Liu wanted to tell them as soon as possible.
The boy scratched his head, "This... I don't know, the master doesn't have an accurate day to check the accounts on weekdays. It can be as long as half a month or as short as three or four days. The master just left the day before yesterday. When will he come back?"
It’s unclear.”
The day before yesterday? Then I won’t be able to come back until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow at the earliest.
Chen Liu was pacing, looking like an ant on a hot pot. The boy was curious, "Master Liu, is there something important that makes you so anxious? Could it be that something happened overseas?"
The Chen family has a lot of overseas business, and Chen Liu will see Chen Wanzhang as soon as he comes back. It's no wonder that the young man thinks so.
"It's much more important than business. It's a good thing, a huge good thing!"
Chen Liu tried his best to suppress his inner desire to talk. He was still not sure whether Feng Lian was his mistress. Chen Liu didn't have a big mouth and would talk to everyone.
"I'm going to see Madam. If there is any news about the master, please have someone notify me as soon as possible. Do you remember?"
"Hey, I remember."
After Chen Liu ordered the servants, he went into the backyard. Chen Wanzhang's wife, Mrs. Li, was in frail health. On weekdays, Chen Wanfu's wife, Mrs. Fang, came to do housekeeping duties. She stayed in the backyard all year round to take care of herself and rarely saw outsiders.
Chen Liu and Li are related, so they can go in and out of the backyard.
"elder sister."
Although spring has begun, the weather is still cold. Ms. Li is lying on the imperial concubine's couch in the outer hall. She is wearing a down jacket and a fur cloak. Even though the brazier is lit in the room, she is still wrapped tightly.
"It's Liuzi who's back."
When Mrs. Li saw Chen Liu, a weak smile appeared on her face. She held the maid's hand and got up from the couch. Chen Liu took a few steps forward to stop her.
"Sister, just lie down. I just came back to see you."
He originally wanted to tell Mrs. Li about Feng Lian, but looking at her weak appearance, Chen Liu swallowed the words in his mouth again. It was better to wait until he was sure before speaking, otherwise, given Li's body, he would be so sad and happy.
I'm afraid something will happen.
Chen Liu chatted with her for a while, picking up interesting things outside and telling her about them. Li laughed so hard that tears came out, "I didn't expect that this earl was quite interesting, but Luo Guo is really so pitiful, even the delicious food
No food?”
Mrs. Li has never traveled far since she got married. After her son disappeared, she was even more lingering on the bedside. She even went out to the backyard a few times. Suddenly hearing Chen Liu talk about the outside world, Mrs. Li felt a yearning in her heart. If she could, too
Just go out and take a look, maybe there is a chance to find your son.
