Jiang Zhengming glared angrily, flicked his wide sleeves and said: "She is expecting me to die, why do you want her to come back? Such an evil girl, I, Jiang Zhengming, will treat her as if I have never given birth to her, and I can't see her!"
Jiang Jiaojiao: "..."
Overdone?
Seeing Jiang Zhengming's fierce reaction, Yang felt very satisfied.
She sobbed weakly: "Husband, please calm down, this matter is related to Jiao'er's marriage. If she talks nonsense outside, Mrs. Wu is a sensible person. She is afraid that the old Mrs. Wu will listen to other people's beliefs and not know people well." clear."
"This...I, I really didn't expect that much. My husband thought that the evil girl wanted to return to Shangshu Mansion." Jiang Zhengming was stunned.
He thought that after Jiang Shuyue saw that it had been many years since he was angry, he would think of her as the daughter he had pampered before, so she would try her best to return home.
"Dad, my mother has never told you before that my eldest sister does one thing in front of you and another behind her back. She is fine with me and my mother in front of you. When you don't see it, she looks at me with her nostrils turned upward."
"Dad really thinks he raised her extremely well. It's all his fault that our sweet son has been wronged."
Jiang Zhengming was heartbroken that he, a dignified minister of household affairs with a Jinshi background, could not even educate his own daughter well. What a failure.
Mrs. Yang waved the Luopa in her hand, looking magnanimous, "Husband, please stop blaming Yue'er. It's better for you to go and call her back to your house in person, and consider the matter of re-establishing the genealogy in a long term. The top priority is not to let her do bad things outside." It has improved the reputation of our Shangshu Mansion."
Jiang Zhengming's face was dark and sullen, not knowing what to do.
Let him go and ask that evil girl to go home. Does he still want this old face?
If you don't go, what Madam said is reasonable. If the Wu family knows that their eldest daughter has come back to life, no matter how they explain it, it will be useless.
If you ignore it, the Wu family will find out that there is a high possibility of breaking off the engagement.
After weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Zhengming gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go, I'll call that evil girl back. Madam, I will discipline her more in the future. If she doesn't repent, she will be sent to Zhuangzi after our sweetie gets married." Keep a close eye on them.”
Yang looked at Jiang Zhengming with tender eyes, "I dare not disobey my husband. When Yue'er comes back, I will ask the nun from the palace to teach her the rules. I will definitely live up to my husband's trust." .”
After Jiang Shuyue left, Mrs. Yang returned Mrs. Wang to her parents' home.
In order to control Mrs. Wang and prevent her from gossiping outside, Ms. Yang also encouraged her sister-in-law to take Mrs. Wang's granddaughter Dongmei into the house.
Yang Mao's legs were already disabled, and taking a concubine would further affect his marriage proposal. He only wanted Dongmei to be his maid.
Jiang Zhengming was very satisfied. Although Yang was supported by his aunt, he never indulged him and put him first in everything.
It is said that a woman regards her husband as her first priority, and she has done a great job.
Seeing his most satisfied daughter wiping away her tears, Jiang Zhengming asked, "Does Jiao'er know which inn she is staying in? Dad will take someone to call her back right now."
"She lives in..."
Where does she live?
Jiang Jiaojiao was immediately dumbfounded. She didn't even know where Jiang Shuyue lived, so where could her father call her back?
Seeing that her daughter was speechless, Mrs. Yang urged, "Don't be afraid, Jiao'er. With your father's support, your eldest sister won't dare to bully you when she comes home. Tell your father quickly, where does she live?"
Yang did not forget to put eye drops on Jiang Zhengming every time she said it. This has been her habit for many years.
Jiang Jiaojiao looked embarrassed, "Mom, I was scolded so hard by my eldest sister today that my daughter even forgot to ask her where she would stay."
"The second young lady was scolded by the eldest lady and cried. I thought the eldest lady was going to come home soon to make trouble. The eldest lady is so fierce, I don't dare to say anything!" Caiyan lost no time to please her master and trampled Jiang Shuyue.
Jiang Zhengming stood up and said, "I will send the housekeeper out to investigate."
"Dad, if eldest sister comes back on her own, please bear with her and don't mention her scolding her daughter at Qinglian Temple. My daughter doesn't want my father to quarrel with her because of me."
Jiang Zhengming's eyes softened a bit when he looked at his well-behaved and sensible daughter.
"Don't worry Jiao'er, dad knows what's appropriate. At this time, dad won't argue with that evil girl."
After Jiang Zhengming went out, he called the housekeeper and a few capable boys to the study and gave some instructions. The butler left with the boy.
The housekeeper followed Jiang Zhengming's instructions and started investigating from the inn in the street near Shangshu Mansion.
We checked dozens of inns from the east to the west. Until nightfall, we couldn't find any news about Jiang Shuyue.
Jiang Jiaojiao and her daughter were as anxious as ants on a hot pot at home.
Seeing the housekeeper returning empty-handed, Jiang Jiaojiao and her daughter were dumbfounded.
"Mom, my daughter is sure she will find a way to return to the Jiang family. She hasn't come yet and I don't know where she lives. What should I do?" The ropa in Jiang Jiaojiao's hand was twisted into a rope.
"Don't worry, Jiao'er. Mother will send Mrs. Qu to the Taiwei's Mansion."
After Mrs. Yang returned Mrs. Wang to her parents' home, she promoted Mrs. Qu to be her confidant.
A good sister of Granny Qu was working as an errand in the Taiwei Mansion, so she happened to be sent there to inquire about the news.
Soon, Qu Po came back to inquire.
"How was it? What did Mrs. Wu say when she got back?" Yang asked impatiently.
Mrs. Qu saluted Mrs. Yang and smiled flatteringly, "Congratulations, madam, a good thing has come true."
"How do you say this?" Yang was unsure, and she wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight unless she asked clearly.
"The old slave's old sisters said that Mrs. Wu was so happy when she returned home that she even ate half a bowl of dinner."
When Yang heard this, his heart dropped.
She sent the maid in the house to tell Jiang Jiaojiao the news, and rewarded Mrs. Qu with a rich jade bracelet.
Then he twisted his waist and went to the study to find Jiang Zhengming.
The next day, when the Yang family and their daughter were having sweet dreams and happily preparing to welcome the Wu family to deliver the Naji gift, the matchmaker came.
When Yang saw that there was no one behind the matchmaker to give Naji gifts, her heart was in her throat again.
Before the matchmaker had even sat down, Yang couldn't help but ask: "Sister Da Jin is here today..."
The matchmaker laughed dryly and took out Jiang Jiaojiao's Geng Tie from her arms, "Madam, this is the second young lady's Geng Tie. Please keep it. There is no need to return Third Young Master Wu's Geng Tie. It will be brought back after all. .”
Yang was confused and her face darkened, "What does Madam Wu mean? Why can't I understand?"
"Ahem, Madam, please listen to the explanation from the common woman. Miss Jiang's horoscope does not match that of Mr. Wu. Mrs. Wu is happy to get married to Shangshufu. Please forgive me for this matter."
No matter how tactfully the matchmaker spoke, Yang understood clearly that her Jiaoer's marriage was ruined.
Everyone came to cancel the engagement, and it was useless to talk any more, so Yang grabbed Geng Tie.
She said to Mrs. Qu behind her: "Since the eight characters are not compatible, we will not talk about this marriage. Go and get Master Wu's Geng Tie."
The matchmaker stood up quickly, "Madam, wait a minute..."
