"Wait a minute, we have to go see the Kong family." The old lady stopped her son with an unhappy expression.
"Mother, I have already listened to your instructions and married her." After Jiang Xuncheng paused, he suddenly turned around, frowned and said, "The Marquis Anxin's house cheated on her, and I have tolerated it. As you said, still marry her."
"I know you felt that I forced you to marry her, but in that case, it was you who proposed the marriage first. The marriage was already set, how could you cancel it? If you really did, would you still be the same person now? ?”
"Mother……"
"Well, for so many years, Mrs. Kong has worked hard without any merit. She is dignified and decent, and she is a good person. She is tolerant to you. When you said that you would put Brother Han in her name, she didn't say anything. , and later agreed that you would accept Aunt Gu, and never said a word..."
"Mother, what can she say? She is a cheater, and she is not upright. What can she say?" Jiang Xuncheng mocked, "An adopted daughter, an adopted daughter of the Anxin Marquis Mansion, can she really treat her as a legitimate daughter? Anxin Marquis Does the government regard her as a legitimate daughter? That is to say, I, a scholar from a foreign country who knows nothing about anything, was tricked into marrying her. Other children from aristocratic families... who will marry her? "
"Look at how she looks now. If I say it too harshly, she will look aggrieved, as if I really did something to her! She needs to go out of the city to recuperate, no matter how sick she is. Nanzhi left all the affairs in the house to Aunt Gu. How difficult is it for an aunt to take care of the family affairs? It would be better for her to hide away alone. "
This kind of woman, no matter how beautiful she is, cannot arouse his sympathy.
I just feel bored.
Especially when Mrs. Kong saw him, she always seemed to be hesitant to speak, which was really not interesting!
This marriage was the best one he could find at that time. When he heard that the Prime Minister of the Anxin Hou Mansion had chosen him as his third son-in-law, Jiang Xuncheng was also overjoyed and immediately came to propose marriage. Even at that time, the old lady was not in the capital yet. , it was somewhat against the rules for him to directly propose marriage.
But he still went to mention it.
Jiang Xuncheng keenly sensed that this was a good opportunity and he couldn't let it pass.
This feeling made him climb up again and again in the officialdom in the future, but later he met Aunt Gu, and with Aunt Gu's advice, he discovered the truth.
Anxin Houfu used an adopted daughter to invest in him!
This feeling was very aggrieved and angry. Even after seeing Kong's beautiful and outstanding face, it made him feel unspeakably ashamed and angry.
His sweetheart was Aunt Gu, and what he always cared about was Aunt Gu and the children she gave birth to.
Even at first, he didn't even think about letting Kong give birth to a child.
His child must be born to the woman he loves.
The old lady looked at him thoughtfully. The shame in Jiang Xunsun's eyes receded and he calmed down: "Mother, I'm going to see her first, and then I'm going to write the booklet."
Today is different from the past. He really can't be emotional now.
Let Kong be proud for a few days.
When Jiang Xuncheng arrived at Kong's room, Jiang Jinxin was also there.
Hearing that this father was coming, Jiang Jinxin's lips curled up, her smile not reaching her eyes.
She was in the wing next door and didn't go over immediately. She and her mother had been waiting for him to come...
In the main room, Mrs. Kong saw her husband. After a difficult salute on the bed, Ms. Kong leaned back and seemed to have her eyes closed.
The attitude was indifferent and the atmosphere was dull.
"How is your health?" Jiang Xuncheng asked as he sat down on the chair.
"It's nothing serious. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Xiang." Kong said in a low voice. He was so helpless that his long eyelashes dropped slightly, casting jagged shadows on his white eyes.
She was really outstanding, with skin as white as snow, bright eyes and red lips, but now she was a little more aloof in her weakness. She did not take the initiative to answer the conversation, nor did she say much.
Anyone could see his neglect of Jiang Xuncheng.
Jiang Xuncheng frowned. Kong's attitude was different from what he expected. The last time he came, he thought it was just an illusion.
He raised his eyes and examined Kong carefully, and the room became quiet.
"It's better to take a good rest." Jiang Xuncheng said.
"That's what the prime minister said."
"Your second sister came today and caused such a thing. Aunt Gu has been punished by the old lady and slapped. She will be locked in the woodshed tonight and sent to the nunnery outside the city early tomorrow morning." Jiang Xuncheng continued.
This time Kong didn't answer directly. He raised his eyes to look at Jiang Xuncheng. Under the light, those eyes seemed to be missing something. Although his eyes were moving, they still looked gentle.
But I always felt like something was missing.
Jiang Xuncheng frowned.
"Jin'er... came back and said that the second sister did it for me and it was my fault." Kong finally spoke.
Jiang Xuncheng coughed lowly: "Aunt Gu's temperament is like this, I don't blame her for this matter..."
"Yes, blame me!" Kong interrupted Jiang Xuncheng's words, which had never happened before.
Jiang Xuncheng choked for a moment, feeling as if he couldn't go on and had to say something. He looked at Kong silently. He was still the same person, and he even felt that he was more outstanding than before.
Of course, it was impossible for him to care about Kong.
However, Kong's attitude now made him feel very uncomfortable. He was about to leave, but now he thought it was better to explain.
"Of course I don't blame you for this! Your second sister came to see you when she was sick. She had good intentions at first, but she just called Aunt Gu over to ask and even beat her. After all, it was against the rules. No matter what, this This matter is also our prime minister's own business, we can't let her, a concubine from the county prince's palace, come over to beat someone."
Jiang Xuncheng coughed again.
"The prime minister thinks that Brother Han pushed and injured the second sister, is he right?" Kong said.
"This...is not the cause."
"What do you mean, Mr. Xiang?" Kong raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Xuncheng calmly. His daughter's words fell on her ears, as clear as if she was still by her side.
What else can’t be seen clearly?
My own life is nothing, what about my daughter’s life, what about my second sister’s life? I was confused in the first half of my life. If I don't wake up again, I will be really stupid.
I was indeed stupid. I was still expecting Jiang Xuncheng before.
So far, I have almost lost three lives for this.
This man has nothing to look forward to!
Jiang Xuncheng was taken aback by Kong's attitude. It was completely different from what he had imagined. "I just want to say that this matter...can't hurt the harmony between the two families."
"Harmony?" Mrs. Kong smiled, "Does the Prime Minister think there is still harmony in this house?"
"You are the wife of the wife, how can you say such things?" Jiang Xuncheng's face turned cold.
"Madam? Prime Minister, don't you think this is a joke? I have something here. Prime Minister, you can take a look at it and sign it."
Kong raised his head, took out something from under the pillow, and handed it to Jiang Xuncheng...
