Chapter 132

At the New Year's Eve palace banquet, the emperor really mentioned Jiang Yan as Wen Hui said.After learning the reason, the emperor gave Jiang Yan the position of son.

In fact, people in the Marquis Mansion didn't make a big announcement about Jiang Yan's life experience, and even removed him from the family tree in private, so that everyone would know about it.

So in the first month, when they went to Qiao's mansion to pay New Year's greetings, Mrs. Sun pulled Mrs. Hou and said in a low voice: "It's all right now, Xiaoyan has become the eldest son, and your wish has been fulfilled."

Madam Hou looked a little embarrassed.

Sun felt something was wrong: "What? Didn't you always want Xiaoyan to take this position?"

Mrs. Hou sighed: "I really thought so, but now I feel sorry for Xiao Yan. I was thinking of seeing him for marriage, but this happened."

Sun was surprised.

Madam Hou hesitated to speak, but finally waved her hand: "Forget it, it's over."

"Shuangshuang, Shuangshuang?" The two were talking, when Mrs. Qiao suddenly called Mrs. Hou.

Mrs. Hou looked over, and saw the old lady Qiao smiled and said: "Sheng Sheng and Xian Xian are both seventeen years old. Usually, girls at this age are already engaged... I'm afraid you don't think I'm nagging. More questions, do you have any plans?"

Madam Hou sighed even more when she mentioned this: "I did meet a family before, but it didn't work out, so I didn't tell you."

The old lady Qiao asked, "Which family is it?"

"I won't mention it since I have no success. I also have a headache. Does mother have any good candidates?"

Mrs. Qiao took a look at Mrs. Qiao, and then said: "We did discuss something a while ago... Xiaozhi is also seventeen. You said that Shu'er happened to have just reconciled. At this juncture, who are we really looking at?" Don't worry about it."

In fact, the Qiao family also thought that Jiang Yan was actually a good candidate, not to mention anything else, just saying that Mrs. Hou, as Qiao Zhi's aunt, would protect her no matter what.

It's just that before they had time to discuss, they learned about Jiang Yan's background.

Mrs. Qiao said: "What we mean is that Xiao Zhi's temper will be wronged everywhere, so why not stay at home? If there is a brother with a clean family background, it is better to recruit her back as a son-in-law. It's better to marry into someone else's house and look at other people's eyes."

Madam Hou was surprised and looked at Mrs. Chen.

Chen Shi took a sip of tea and didn't speak.

Of course she wasn't happy. Qiao Zhi didn't have a brother, so why would she want a girl to recruit a husband?

But she couldn't hold back Qiao Zhi, and there were two elders, Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao, who made the decision... Mrs. Chen also didn't want to be the villain in her daughter's heart.

I heard Mrs. Qiao continue to say: "What's more, to be honest, we always think that our own children are better than others. If you ask me, no brother from any family is worthy of Xiao Zhi."

Originally, I thought that the Jiang family's family style was clean and upright, and there was a rule that you can only take concubines if you have no children forty years, so it seemed like a good place to go.In the end, the elder brother of the Jiang family was too ignorant.

"That's why I said you are the same. Originally, Xiaoyan is a brother under his knees. If there is a suitable one, it is not a bad idea to recruit him as a son-in-law."

"It doesn't matter how good the family background is, as long as the character is good and the family is clean."

Mrs. Hou felt that this proposal was unreliable, but she didn't refute it much.

They were discussing the marriage of the girl in the mansion here, and Qiao Zhi also pulled Jiang Sheng to announce mysteriously: "I want to tell you something important."

She said loudly, "I'm not getting married anymore!"

What do you mean?
Jiang Sheng's first reaction was that Qiao Zhi and Jiang Yunsheng's marriage was over.

I heard Qiao Zhi say again: "My grandfather, my grandmother, my parents, they all agreed, and with my sister's matter first, they all agreed that it's not that our family can't support me, so it's better to let me stay at home."

Qiao Zhi suddenly became shy: "However, I don't want to stay at home and wait for my father and brother to support me."

She whispered: "So I decided, I want to write my own storybook, and I want to tell the stories I write to many, many people."

Jiang Sheng touched his nose.

If she had learned about this from someone else, she might have felt that Qiao Zhi had been raped.

Qiao Zhi hesitated for a moment, and then coyly took out a booklet from behind her, closed her eyes and said in a vigorous tone, "Nuo, I'll show you!"

"I've been writing this for a long time, let's say it first, don't laugh at me, and don't hit me."

Jiang Sheng took it over and looked it over carefully. This look, it was much more interesting than the book she bought at the bookstore before.

It's a very short and slightly heartwarming story, which breaks out of the old stereotypes of gifted scholars and beautiful ladies. The language is exquisite, and even the common scenes are described by Qiao Zhi quite interestingly.

When he saw the end, Jiang Sheng felt that he had missed something, so he turned back again.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, and her eyes were serious, Qiao Zhi felt uncertain.This is the first time she has shown her script to others, even her mother has never read it.

After a while, Qiao Zhi couldn't help interrupting her, and asked cautiously, "How is it?"

Only then did Jiang Sheng close the storybook, and praised without hesitation: "The theme is novel and fascinating."

Qiao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then you kept silent, you scared me to death."

She thought it was her poor writing, but Jiang Sheng was too embarrassed to say so.

Jiang Sheng smiled and said, "What are you going to do now? Sell the story to a bookshop?"

"I haven't figured it out yet." Qiao Zhi twisted her face.

She didn't want to tell her family about it right away, she wanted to wait until she made some achievements.

"And this story is too short, wait until I write a longer one."

Thinking of Pei Luoshu, Jiang Sheng suddenly had an idea: "How about opening a book shop?"

Qiao Zhi pointed to the story books, and then pointed to herself: "Me? Open a bookstore? Just a few story books?"

"It doesn't have to be just selling story books, and it doesn't have to be written by you alone." Jiang Sheng planned, "Look outside, the women's livelihood at most depends on selling some embroidery products to Xiuzhuang, or Yinlou cloth clothing and other places. Some female workers are recruited, and other positions—for example, shopkeepers in restaurants and teahouses are all men, and only men are officials in the officialdom...so women are 'marrying' and are dependent."

Even with Qiao Shu's family background, He Li has to think carefully about every step because she lacks the ability to earn a living.

The family was stable when the elders were around, but it is still unknown whether the younger generations will despise this aunt who should have been married off a long time ago.

Jiang Sheng said: "If they open a book store, they can earn a little money without showing their faces, and some of them can even rely on this to gain a foothold. Of course, this is only for girls who can read and have some cultural background, but we That’s all we can do for now.”

"It doesn't have to be just accepting scripts and selling books. You can also buy books on one side and let people read them on the other side. You only need to pay a few coppers... so that those who can't afford books can read the books they want. We can also make profits from it, as long as the base of reading groups is large enough, the profits are still considerable.”

 It's too difficult, I really can't code it out (_),

  A little spoiler, I will definitely change it back tomorrow! !
  - Change it, change it, change it, guilty hehe
