Xia Luotong nodded and wrote this down. He never knew when he would need it.
Seeing that she listened attentively, Xi Menghan continued: "Jiang Xin's Achilles' heel is Chu Junxiu. She only wants to marry him as Mrs. Hou. She has always regarded Chu Junxiu as a piece of cake. She doesn't allow anyone to care about him, and she keeps thinking about him. Eliminate all threats around him. Any woman who tries to get close to Chu Junxiu will be bullied and humiliated by her. If Chu Junxiu takes the initiative to show interest in women, it will be even worse. Jiang Xin will use all kinds of more vicious methods Way to deal with that woman."
This Jiang Xin is really ruthless and ruthless in doing whatever he wants, but...
"I think Chu Junxiu doesn't seem to have that interest in her, right? Or to be more precise, he quite hates her?" Xia Luotong recalled Chu Junxiu's attitude towards Jiang Xin when he met her several times. , couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.
"It's quite accurate. Chu Junxiu does hate her, but she sticks to him like a dog-skin plaster. He can't be beaten away or scolded." Xi Menghan was speechless. From this point of view, Jiang Xin is really admirable.
"This metaphor is really apt..." Xia Luotong recalled the scene when the two people got along, and couldn't help but nodded. Then he thought of something, "I seem to have heard them mention Mrs. Chu?"
"They should be talking about Chu Junxiu's grandmother, now Mrs. Hou." Xi Menghan nodded and started to popularize science for Xia Luotong, "Chu Junxiu's father died on the battlefield a few years ago, and his mother I was overly grieved and went there not long after. In the huge Wuning Marquis Mansion, there were only two masters left, Mrs. Chu and the young Marquis Chu, Junxiu."
"Mrs. Chu was worried that the Chu family's incense would end with Chu Junxiu, so after he came back from the battlefield, she had been busy arranging for him to get married. As a result, Chu Junxiu didn't know what to do. He suddenly changed his gender and became a dandy. Not only did he always make trouble for various banquets held by his grandmother, he made it clear that he did not want to get married."
After saying this, Xi Menghan's face was full of helplessness, which made Xia Luotong's face full of curiosity.
"You seem to be very familiar with Wu Ning Houfu?"
"Well, our two families are family friends." Xi Menghan nodded. This matter was not a secret, so she told Xia Luotong directly, "Both of our families are military commanders, and have devoted themselves to the military camp for generations. Although we are not here, We are in the same legion, but we have always been helping each other, so we have always had a good relationship, and our Xi family is also quite aware of his family's situation."
"Actually, our two families were planning to get married when we were young, but we were afraid that we wouldn't get along when we grew up, and instead ended up having a grudge, so we ended up letting it go." Xi Menghan said with a happy face, "It's okay. The elders had to be sensible now, otherwise we would really be able to tear the house apart in the future."
When Xia Luotong heard what she said, he was very surprised and couldn't help but laugh: "It seems that you two can't get along?"
"Not only do we not get along, we started fighting almost as soon as we met. It's a pity that I couldn't beat him, otherwise I would have directly attacked him to stop talking nonsense to him!" Xi Menghan clenched his fists as he spoke, with a fierce look on his face.
Xia Luotong thought about the strength of the two of them and estimated the destructive power. I am afraid that as Xi Menghan said, they could demolish the entire mansion.
"Then what's going on with Mrs. Chu and Jiang Xin? From what Jiang Xin meant, it seemed that Mrs. Chu had taken a fancy to her?" Xia Luotong thought of Jiang Xin's words when they were at Fumanlou last time. People from other places always use Mrs. Chu to suppress Chu Junxiu.
"I can't say that I'm fancying it. I just think that the family background is suitable. In addition, Jiang Xin always acts as if she is dedicated only to Chu Jun in front of Mrs. Chu, so Mrs. Chu is quite satisfied with her." Xi Menghan said. He suddenly sneered, "But I'm afraid Jiang Xin doesn't know that although Mrs. Chu always pressured Chu Junxiu to attend various banquets and wanted him to get married as soon as possible, Mrs. Chu actually loved Chu Junxiu since she was a child. , in the end, Chu Junxiu’s own preference must be the main one.”
Xia Luotong understood Xi Menghan's words.
Jiang Xin thought that she could threaten Chu Junxiu with Mrs. Chu, but she didn’t know that Chu Junxiu was Mrs. Chu’s biological grandson, and such important matters as getting married and marrying a wife must still be based on Chu Junxiu’s own will. Yes, it turned out that Jiang Xin used Mrs. Chu to threaten and oppress Chu Junxiu, which would only make Chu Junxiu hate her even more.
"You pay so much attention to Chu Junxiu, are you interested in him?" Xi Menghan suddenly looked at Xia Luotong, trying to distinguish the emotions on her face.
However, to Xi Menghan's disappointment, Xia Luotong didn't show any signs of nervousness on his face. He just smiled and replied: "How could it be? He is more beautiful than a woman. If I fall in love with him, wouldn't I be making myself unhappy?" ?”
"That's true." Xi Menghan couldn't help but smile, "But your appearance is not much different from his. If you put on makeup, you might be more beautiful than him. What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid that he will be infected with narcissism. I lament my beauty every day, just like a peacock." Xia Luotong couldn't help laughing.
"That's an appropriate description! I'll call him Peacock from now on!" Upon hearing this, Xi Menghan made her decision immediately, and then she couldn't help but become happy. She could already imagine what Chu Junxiu would do if he heard such a nickname. , how angry you would be!
"Then you must not confess me, otherwise I'm afraid he will cause trouble for me!" Xia Luotong suddenly remembered that this Chu Junxiu is someone who knows his identity!
"Don't worry! I'm not the kind of person who betrays his friends!" Xi Menghan immediately patted his chest, his face full of satisfaction.
The two of them chatted more and more, and they stayed in the pavilion for a long time. It was not until a beautiful and gentle woman came over with two maids that Xi Menghan suddenly exclaimed and jumped up.
"Oops! We were so happy chatting that I forgot about my future sister-in-law!"
Xi Menghan's words fell on the ears of the woman who had just stepped into the pavilion. The woman's face turned red and she looked at Xi Menghan angrily, "How come you are so straightforward when talking outside. "
"What I said is right, you are my future sister-in-law! The wedding is approaching, why are you so shy?" Xi Menghan smiled and came to the woman's side, his face full of flattery.
"Don't think that I will let you go, but Mrs. Xi and I have been waiting for a long time." The woman reached out and tapped Xi Menghan's forehead. Although she said this, there was no blame in her eyes.
It can be seen that the two of them have a good relationship, and their words and actions show intimacy.
