But even though it wasn't unexpected, Jiang Nianjiao still subconsciously looked in Jiang Zhi's direction, only to see Jiang Zhi also had a look of confusion on her face.
It seemed like she didn't know the news at the moment.
It took her a while to regain her composure. She just grabbed a corner of her skirt, loosened it and let it go, as if she was mentally building herself up. After a long time, she heard her retort in a light and slow tone: "I don't Marry His Highness!"
Although her voice was not loud, everyone in the room could hear her clearly.
Yu Se, who was originally smiling and smiling, suddenly lost his face at this moment.
However, because someone was here, she still regained her smile a little bit, "Silly Azhi, what are you talking about? Do you think you are your Jiaojiao sister? Someone can tell you the truth about everything you do?"
Her words were a bit sour and a bit provocative.
Jiang Zhi undoubtedly needed great courage to express his attitude.
Yu Se's words made Jiang Zhi dare not say a word. She still hadn't gotten up from the ground, and now even her head seemed to be buried underground.
On the one hand, Jiang Nianjiao was surprised that Jiang Zhi actually dared to resist her mother. On the other hand, she also thought that instead of having another enemy, it would be better to treat him in his own way.
What's more, although that system is temporarily offline, judging from his mission, if Jiang Zhi is allowed to interfere in the marriage between Zhao Nianze and Su Zhirou, her mission will fail. Isn't it all in vain?
Therefore, just after Jiang Zhi finished speaking, Jiang Nianjiao just pulled up Jiang Zhi who was kneeling on the ground and said, "What's wrong? Since Azhi is unwilling, why should mother force Azhi? Since His Majesty ascended the throne, marriages between men and women have not been the same. Is it a matter of mutual consent? If Azhi is not willing, can His Majesty still force Azhi to marry His Highness?"
"Besides, mother has always been kind and loves us children deeply. Is mother willing to ruin Azhi's happiness in life?"
I know that Yu Se has always been a pretentious person, and this set of moral kidnappings is also what Yu Se likes to use to run against himself. When Jiang Nianjiao got the chance, she naturally returned it unceremoniously.
Yu Se's face almost darkened again. He calmed down for a long time before he smiled and said, "As a mother, I naturally hope that Azhi can be happy, but Azhi is different from you. She didn't have a good father in her life, and now she can become Jiang The young lady in the mansion has been a blessing that she has cultivated for half her life, and Azhi wants to repay her kindness."
Hearing Yu Se's words, Jiang Zhi's face turned pale.
Even Jiang Nianjiao had always disliked seeing this younger sister, so she couldn't help but feel disgusted with her. She was clearly the daughter of the Jiang family, but she wanted to fulfill the reputation of these hypocritical parents.
Even though Jiang Fang's blood is flowing in her body, she can only regard her biological father as her adoptive father.
"You don't have to repay your kindness with your own marriage. It's okay to show more filial piety in front of your father. Besides, doesn't my father always feel sorry for Azhi? Azhi has already suffered a lot because of a father who has no responsibility. How could my father be willing to let her be entrusted to someone else for the rest of her life?"
Yu Se didn't know what she was thinking of, so she didn't say anything. She just chuckled, "Jiaojiao is really a caring sister. I'm relieved to see you two sisters have such deep love. Jiaojiao, since your sister Having said that, I must make the decision for you. Why don’t you thank your good sister quickly?”
Yu Se's words just seemed to put Jiang Nianjiao on the fire.
Jiang Nianjiao naturally realized the intention of Yu Se's words.
After all, Jiang Fang is the one who cares most about this marriage.
Jiang Fang had been grounded for so long because he did not choose His Highness, but got engaged to the Chen family. Today, if he went to disturb Jiang Zhi's proposed marriage, he would be really mad. Go.
However, although Yu Se spoke, Jiang Zhi did not follow her words. She was just silent, but it was not that she could not see her mother's plan for her sister.
In her heart, she was unwilling to become a means used by her mother to deal with her sister.
But she didn't know what she should say to break the situation.
Jiang Nianjiao patted Jiang Zhi on the shoulder and whispered in a voice that only two people could hear, "I will help you."
Jiang Zhi instantly looked at Jiang Nianjiao with bright eyes.
Fortunately, at this time, Nanny Li obviously didn't want this topic to continue indefinitely, so she just whispered another piece of news to Yu Se.
"Mrs. Jiang, in addition to teaching you etiquette, I am here today to hand over the four maids given to Miss Jiang by the Concubine Xian. After all, when the girl marries the Chen family in the future, there will always be people around her. One of our own is missing.”
After hearing this, everyone's eyes naturally glanced at the four maids behind Granny Li. They were also well-proportioned and pretty in appearance. Plus wearing the same clothes.
Without looking carefully, you can't tell who is who.
Although Yu Se was unwilling in every way, after all, she still wanted to put people in Jiang Nianjiao's courtyard, but now these people were given by the palace. Even if she was unwilling, she could only stand up and say, "Ms. Xianfei, I really feel sorry for Jiaojiao." , as a mother, I would like to thank Concubine Xian first."
Jiang Nianjiao naturally stood up and thanked him.
In Sixin Garden, the grass and trees are lush, and the clouds passing by in front of the garden are like gossamer threads.
However, in such a leisurely afternoon, Yu Se was full of anger.
She just looked coldly at Jiang Zhi who was kneeling on the uneven washboard. When Jiang Zhi's knees were numb and she tried to move her feet a little, Yu Se suddenly said coldly, "Did I ask you to move?"
After hearing what Yu Se said, Jiang Zhi immediately didn't dare to move anymore.
She just lowered her head.
Yu Se then said sarcastically, "Even if you raise a wolf, it should be mature. I have raised you for so many years in vain, and now you have raised your elbows outwards?"
"What? Do you really think that your good sister will help you? She is just trying to save my face. Jiang Zhi, you don't really think that she just wanted to stand up for you, do you? If she knew who you were, she would still Maybe it will disgust you and me."
"Besides, you don't really think you can compare with the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, do you? She is the legitimate daughter-in-law of the Jiang family. Even if Jiang Fang doesn't love her, even if her mother dies, she still has her mother's natal family. Back it up, the Gao family is a newly rich person, and her aunt is still the favored concubine in the palace. Naturally, there are people who will tell her what she wants to do. But what about you? What is your background, and what is my background? Do you really want to force me to do it? Will your mother risk her life?"
Jiang Zhi, who was scolded by Yu Se, was silent at first. After hearing these words, she naturally dared not be silent anymore. She just begged in a low voice, "Auntie, I know that I don't have the life experience of my sister, and I don't dare to think about it." What, you and daddy let me marry anyone, but I really can’t marry His Highness.”
Hearing this sentence, Yu Se obviously realized that something was wrong. She looked at the girl on the ground begging her, and immediately stopped her earnest expression. She asked sharply, "Why can't you marry His Highness?" ?”
Jiang Zhi obviously realized that she had made a mistake, so she naturally did not dare to speak again.
"Azhi, why do you hide everything from your mother? Is your mother so unworthy of your trust?" Yu Se knelt down and looked at Jiang Zhi who was kneeling on the ground.
Jiang Zhi still said nothing, and Yu Se's face was a little impatient, but mother and daughter have been getting along for so many years. Naturally, she also knows Jiang Zhi's personality.
"Azhi, could you please tell your mother the reason why you don't want to marry His Highness? If you tell her, your mother will go to your father for you."
At this moment, Yu Se obviously wanted to break the pot and ask the question.
But Jiang Zhi also knew that Yu Se was just deceiving herself. When she was young, she was still naive. If she coaxed herself a few words, she would take it seriously.
But the consequence of telling her everything is that everything will be lost and nothing will be gained.
This person was obviously her mother, but for some reason, she was only afraid of this mother in her heart.
Although the current prosperity and wealth are all earned by her mother, in fact, she would rather not have such prosperity and wealth if she could.
She really couldn't do anything like her mother who robbed other people's husbands, and how she could scheme against the poor first wife's child without any psychological burden.
But most of the time, she didn't dare to resist her mother. If today's remarks weren't so ridiculous, she might not have been able to say "no" at all.
Su Zhirou is her only good friend in the world, and she also knows how deep the relationship between Su Zhirou and Zhao Nianze is.
She doesn't want to lose her
Friends, I don’t want to be the bamboo pole stuck between the two of them.
But if this truth were told to her mother, she would definitely use all means to destroy the relationship between Su Zhirou and Zhao Nianze.
So she could only grit her teeth and say nothing.
"Do you know that mother is also doing it for your own good? Do you want to live in the shadow of Jiang Mansion all your life?" When Yu Se saw that she was silent, he continued to chatter endlessly and earnestly.
It's a pity that my daughter, who used to be extremely well-behaved and obedient, now looks like nothing can help her.
Could it be that she had been too close to Jiang Nianjiao recently, which made her temper like this.
Thinking of Jiang Nianjiao, her face darkened again.
Now that her daughter is older, it's natural that she can no longer hit her randomly without caring about her dignity like before.
And she herself said she was tired, so Yu Se only had a disappointed look on her face and said to Jiang Zhi, "My daughter has grown up and I can't help you. I can't be your master anymore. You can go back and think about it yourself."
After saying this, she sighed, and then waved her hand to Jiang Zhi, gesturing for her to go down alone.
Jiang Zhi glanced at Yu Se anxiously, and then stood up from the washboard with her hands.
Her legs were numb from kneeling for too long, and she almost fell when she stood up.
But Yu Se seemed to be extremely disappointed, and did not look at her. He just let Jiang Zhi leave with the help of the maid. .
It wasn't until Jiang Zhi turned around that she looked at Jiang Zhi's leaving figure with faint eyes.
"You Ling, go and call the girls in Jiang Zhi's house. I have something to ask them."
