Portable Space: Reborn Little Couple

Chapter 362
From the standpoint of the Patriarch of the Duan family, he couldn't understand Tang Yanxiu's thoughts no matter what.

This second cousin is very fashionable, how can cousins ​​be compared with real brothers and sisters?

Unfortunately, just as the head of the Duan family didn't understand Tang Yanxiu, Tang Yanxiu also couldn't understand the head of the Duan family.

After confirming that there was an insurmountable generation gap between the two of them, the Patriarch of the Duan family sighed deeply: "Yan Xiu, you child... well, if I knew it would be like this, I shouldn't have brought it up in the first place." This marriage is here."

Seeing Tang Yanxiu's bewildered expression, the head of the Duan family was helpless.

It is true that Tang Yanxiu had already clearly rejected this marriage in front of the old lady of the Duan family when she was in Luyang County.

But the problem is that no one thought that Tang Yanxiu at that time was just because he was still young. Even if he said that he had someone he liked, no one took it seriously.

Whose marriage is not the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker?

For a child like Tang Yanxiu whose parents have both died and whose grandparents are no longer, his maternal grandparents and direct uncle are willing to help manage the marriage. Wearing a dowry of ten thousand...

Whoever put this marriage on, they all accepted it with joy, but Tang Yanxiu didn't appreciate it and didn't say anything, leaving no room for discussion.

"Yan Xiu, let me tell you the truth, even if you really don't like Jiqiu at all, or if you insist on being with Miss Mo, it's over. The extent is no longer up to you."

Patriarch Duan's words were extremely helpless, but Tang Yanxiu only slightly raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and it seemed that he didn't take these words to heart at all.

Enraged by Tang Yanxiu's appearance, the Patriarch of the Duan family almost wanted to reprimand him angrily, but he could only forcefully suppress his anger because of the things everyone discussed when he came.

In fact, the Duan family has already regretted it.

Since last year's May Flower Show, the head of the Duan family made a so-called ten-year agreement with Tang Yanxiu.At that time, the head of the Duan family was full of confidence, but when he returned to Luyang County, after thinking about it, he felt that this matter was not reliable.

Ten years!
How many decades can there be in life?

Even if there is a [-]% certainty that Tang Yanxiu will marry Duan Jiqiu, there is always a chance!

Although the head of the Duan family is very confident, he has to think about how it will end if something goes wrong.

Tang Yanxiu could afford the gamble, because no matter what the ending was, it wouldn't hinder him too much.

Mo Qianrui can also afford to gamble, if she wins, she will reach the sky in one step, and if she loses, she can also lose all of Tang Yanxiu's Wanguan family fortune.

But what about Duan Jiqiu?
Or, what about the entire Duan family?

Regardless of whether there is Tang Yanxiu or not, it is impossible for Duan Jiqiu to fail to marry.Even if the marriage is not very satisfactory, it is still no problem to choose a marriage that is acceptable.

That being the case, why did he have to hang himself on the tree of Tang Yanxiu?
The most important thing is that, as the head of the Duan family, besides Duan Jiqiu, the ill-fated niece, he must also consider the reputation and face of the entire Duan family.In other words, for Duan Jiqiu, the head of the Duan family doesn't really love him, but only pity him.

Even, if Duan Jiqiu is compared with Tang Yanxiu, the Patriarch of the Duan family cares more about Tang Yanxiu.

Originally, if everything went according to the Duan family's ideas, the ending would be pretty good.On the one hand, the poor child Duan Jiqiu was settled, and on the other hand, he was able to help Tang Yanxiu openly...

"Yan Xiu, listen to me. I am your uncle, and your maternal grandparents in Luyang County. We are all your relatives. Could it be possible to harm you? The reason is definitely that we hope you will have a good life in the future, and we really don't mean to make things difficult for you."

Tang Yanxiu looked up at the head of the Duan family.

If the Patriarch of the Duan family chooses to scold Tang Yanxiu angrily, then with Tang Yanxiu's temperament of being soft rather than hard, he will definitely be in a tough fight with him.

But obviously, the Patriarch of the Duan family was not stupid at all, and immediately changed his strategy after he decided that it was impossible to insist on it.

However, the strategy was good, but it miscalculated Tang Yanxiu's determination.

For Tang Yanxiu, other reasons are acceptable, except for one thing, cousins, cousins, etc., are really devoid of conscience!

He can't do it at all!

"Yan Xiu, I've said so much, don't you want to say something? Jiqiu is really not bad. Of course, I also understand that your heart is not on Jiqiu at all. But it doesn't matter. You don't have to like Jiqiu, or Say, you can like Miss Mo. I, or the Duan family, just want you to marry Jiqiu. As for if you have someone you like in the future, you can think of other ways. It doesn't matter whether it's a concubine or a concubine. , or if I take a step back, you can marry Miss Mo as your equal wife one year after you get married to Jiqiu, will that be all right?"

This is really the limit that the Patriarch of the Duan family can back down.

Such things as flat wives are shameful in the official family!

Even though the law stipulates that a man can have up to three wives and four concubines, those who really know how to marry even wives are all merchants who can't stand on the stage.

Fortunately, the Tang family has already fallen, and Tang Yanxiu's temperament is good and knowledgeable, no matter what, he is not suitable for officialdom. From this point of view, a flat wife should be acceptable.

It's a pity that this is just wishful thinking of the head of the Duan family.

"Uncle, I think I've made my words very clear, why don't you always understand?" Surprised by the "equal wife" argument brought up by the Patriarch of the Duan family, Tang Yanxiu struggled in a cold sweat He opened his mouth, "Never mind that you have great reasons, the most important thing is that I can't marry a younger sister! If you still don't understand the reason, what about the chaos and the relationship? You should understand this, right?"

chaos!Len!
Patriarch Duan's face lost all color in an instant, he still didn't understand the reason, but he understood Tang Yanxiu's determination.

"You really don't agree? You don't even agree with the marriage on the surface?"

"I disagree."

Tang Yanxiu had completely lost his patience, and so did the Patriarch of the Duan family.

The room fell silent again.

After a long time, it was still the head of the Duan family who broke the calm, but when he spoke again, he said something else.

"Last year, I sent someone to give you a New Year's gift, but Jiqiu got mixed up in the New Year's gift. It really wasn't my idea, and it certainly wasn't the idea of ​​anyone else in the Duan family." After a pause, the Duan family In addition to being decadent, the Patriarch's tone was filled with resentment, "It's the Wang family! I would never have thought that the Wang family stretched out their hands so long!"

The Wang family is Duan Jiqiu's maternal ancestor's family.

It is also the other major force behind this marriage.

Under the narration of the head of the Duan family, Tang Yanxiu and others understood the whole story of that incident.

But the Wang family is also a big family in Luyang County, of course it cannot be compared with the Duan family, otherwise they would not have married the only daughter-in-law to the concubine son of the Duan family.Even so, it is still considered a high marriage.

However, the Wang family is also a wealthy family that has been entrenched in Luyang County for hundreds of years, especially the descendants of the Wang family are quite prosperous.

Leaving aside the side branches and concubines, Duan Jiqiu alone has eight uncles.

In other words, the old lady of the Wang family had the only legitimate daughter, Duan Jiqiu's mother, after she gave birth to eight legitimate sons.

Naturally, the Wang family's patriarchal patriarchy would not work at all.

Under the love of the house, the old lady of the Wang family really values ​​her grandson and granddaughter more than her own grandchildren.Not to mention, Duan Jiqiu lost his parents and elder brother unexpectedly. In the eyes of the old lady of the Wang family, he was like an eyeball. She wished to give Duan Jiqiu all the good things in the world.

This is nothing at all, but the way of giving birth to the old lady of the Wang family has hindered some people's eyes.

For example, Duan Jiqiu's aunt.

The uncles who are the first relatives love their nieces in every possible way, but the aunts are separated by a layer after all. Even if there is concern here, it is not worth their own children.

Duan Jiqiu has eight uncles who are direct relatives, so naturally he also has eight aunts.

The older ones are fine, there are several grandchildren who are older than Duan Jiqiu, even if they only have face for Duan Jiqiu, they will not harm her.

But Duan Jiqiu's youngest aunt is not a kind person.

Maybe it is too much to say that she is not kind, but in fact, Duan Jiqiu's other aunts all gave birth to legitimate sons shortly after marrying into Wang's family.Although none of them could compare to the old lady of Wang's family who had had eight sons in a row, most of them had four or five sons, and the least one had three sons.

Except for the eighth wife of the Wang family, Duan Jiqiu's youngest aunt.

The misfortune of the eighth wife of the Wang family is not that she didn't give birth to a son-in-law at the beginning, but that all her sister-in-laws were able to give birth.Of course, she can also give birth. She has been in the door for more than ten years and has given birth to seven prostitutes, who are known as the "Seven Fairies" of the Wang family.

That's all, if you can't give birth, you can blame your poor health, but all the children are daughters, but you can't blame anything.

The old lady of the Wang family was quite a good person, she didn't say much when facing such a daughter-in-law, at most she just didn't want to see those granddaughters.What's more, the so-called disapproval by rich and noble families is at most just ignoring it, and it is impossible to treat children harshly.In fact, the Wang family didn't even bother to treat their sons and daughters harshly.

But the eighth wife of the Wang family was very dissatisfied.

If this dissatisfaction didn't have an outlet, it wouldn't cause trouble. After all, it was her fault both emotionally and rationally.

However, just last year, she finally gave birth to a son-in-law. She thought that she could finally feel proud, but she didn't want to have an accident with Duan Jiqiu's parents and elder brother.

The old lady of the Wang family quickly left the eighth wife of the Wang family who had just given birth to a son-in-law, first to visit, then to attend the funeral, and later to be busy with Duan Jiqiu's marriage.From the time the eighth wife gave birth to the child's birth, the old lady of the Wang family never took time off, and she didn't even take a look at the youngest grandson.

The resentment that had been stagnant for a long time broke out.
