Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 119 Dowry dispute, Furong leaves the court (1)
"Grandma, don't blame mother!"

Ji Furong wiped away tears, and kowtowed heavily to the old lady Ji, her forehead was already red when she raised it again, "The granddaughter just feels sorry for grandma, who works so hard, but granddaughter..."

When Ji Furong said this, her eyes were filled with tears again. The old lady Ji looked distressed, but she couldn't show any urgency. She leaned back on the pillow and waved her hand wearily, "Five Girl, tell me! Tell Yuan Fan once, so I won't have to worry about guessing!"

"Yes, grandmother."

Ji Chonglian glanced at the tense face of the eldest wife, and next to Ji Furong who was on the verge of weeping again, she sighed, and finally said: "Auntie arranged a marriage for elder sister in Shangjing, it is Uncle Dongyang The third son of the family."

"Uncle Dongyang's house?"

The old lady Ji's complexion changed, and her crooked body sat up straight in an instant, she slapped her palm on the pear wood table on the soft couch, and said with a sneer, "Okay, you really are a good mother Very good!"

No wonder the eldest lady seemed a little secretive before she returned to Beijing. The old lady Ji always felt that she had something to hide from her, and it turned out that she had made such a plan.

Anyone can hear the objection of these words, the eldest lady trembled all over, her legs went limp, she knelt down in front of the old lady Ji, bit her lips and said: "The daughter-in-law dare not make a decision on her own, this matter was also discussed with the master, He also agreed..."

"Dongyang uncle's family...such a noble family, how can they think of us?!"

The old lady Ji laughed back in anger, and stood up abruptly, her outstretched finger almost poked the eldest lady's forehead, she quickly dodged to avoid it, and said: "Perhaps she fell in love with Fu'er." The ancestral family has gained power, and the master is also conscientious in the Zhan Shifu, old lady, our Fu'er is no worse than other girls, why can't we be worthy of Dongyang Bo's family?"

"You husband and wife are planning to do this, what else can I say?!"

The old lady Ji closed her eyes heavily, but she was panting in her chest, and the people kneeling below naturally didn't dare to vent their breath. After a long while, the old lady's voice sounded faintly, with a rare trace of fatigue and vicissitudes, " Since you didn't tell me until now, I'm afraid this marriage has already been settled, right?"

Ji Furong burst into tears, bit her lips, kowtowed her head one by one, and murmured: "My granddaughter is not filial...not filial..."

The eldest lady wiped the sweat from her brow, nodded hurriedly and said: "It's settled, and Fu'er and Ji will marry after the next year. This dowry daughter-in-law has also prepared a lot in Shangjing, so the old lady doesn't have to worry about it!"

"Hahaha!"

The old lady Ji suddenly laughed, and looked at the eldest lady with a trace of contempt in her eyes, "With parents like you taking care of her, what is my old lady doing?!"

"grandmother!"

Ji Zhonglian walked a few steps to the old lady Ji, tugging at the hem of her dark blue skirt, tears bursting out uncontrollably.

She still remembers the look of anticipation on Ji Furong's marriage with Ji Minghui, the old lady really wanted to choose a husband and son-in-law for her granddaughter, but all this was disrupted by the eldest wife's self-righteousness go.

Ji Furong married into Dongyang Bo's family in the future, maybe it's a mix of joy and sorrow, misfortune and fortune.

Ji Chonglian felt a little sad for a while, no matter how hard she tried, getting married in this era is a woman's lifelong matter. If she marries well and marries well, she will still have a few years of stable life, and she will only have to give birth to herself in the future. She can just watch over the child and live a life. She can't even think about a husband and wife loving each other until they grow old.

Which man in this era doesn't have three wives and four concubines, but the elder Ji Mingde looks at such an upright person, isn't there also Aunt Hong by his side?

This is because the eldest wife took the initiative to give a concubine to her face. A woman who does not take a concubine for her husband is not virtuous. How ridiculous it is to think about it!

Under such a marriage system, how can you find someone who treats you wholeheartedly?
Just looking at the people around her, Ji Chonglian has already figured it out, and now she doesn't count on it anymore, the future marriage will be decided by the old lady, as long as she can get along, then let's go on like this.

"You all go down, I want to be quiet!"

This time the old lady Ji didn't even raise her hand, she just turned her head away quietly.

Ji Chonglian helped Ji Furong who was choking, and the eldest wife also came over, gave Ji Chonglian a vague look, and pulled Ji Furong away first.

When he was about to turn around the red sandalwood screen carved with the three friends of Sui Han, Ji Chonglian glanced back inadvertently, and saw the old lady Ji raised her head slightly, her whole body trembling faintly, a tear fell down her cheek, but was caught As soon as she raised her hand, she wiped it off quickly, which only made people feel dazzled.

The old lady Ji was really sad this time.

Ji Chonglian bit her lip, and finally retreated silently with red eyes.

After Ji Chonglian came back, she also went to see Ji Youlan, but because of the injury on her face, she was living in seclusion, and after a few chats with her, she lost her usual smile. Ji Chonglian felt a little sad looking at her.

The "scar scar ointment" has been used, but Ji Youlan still has shallow scars on her face, which can't be noticed from a distance, but can be seen at a glance.

Aunt Zeng cried a lot because of this matter, she only said that their mother and daughter were unfortunate, and she didn't know which vixen beat them.

This kind of meaning meant something, Ji Chonglian just listened and didn't answer.

Besides, the third master Ji Mingzhong and Rong Zhi are not here, who can hear her complaints?

The third wife, Yao Shi, occasionally came to visit Ji Youlan, but she didn't talk much, and just left, that is to do her duty as an aunt.

Ji Youlan's two older brothers were not talkative, Ji Chongze followed the temperament of the third wife, and although Ji Chongliang was a little clever, he didn't particularly care about his sister.

Ji Mingzhong sent back a lot of tonics and ointments, and there was only that effect when they could be used, and Ji Youlan gradually resigned to his fate.

Ji Ziwei lived more cautiously, and stopped sneering at anyone, maybe the incident with Ji Youlan finally scared her, if she found out some troubles or something, she was really afraid that one day Ji Youlan would get angry and kill her If her face was scratched, her life would be over.

Ji Mingxuan was very satisfied with his daughter's obedience and obedience. He only thought that she was sensible and grown up, and he praised Aunt Liu a few times, and the relationship between the young couple became more harmonious, like glue.

The eldest wife seemed to want to make up for her mistakes, and she behaved mediocrely in front of the old lady Ji. After a few days, she went to the fourth room vigorously and forcefully asked Aunt Liu to open the warehouse. She wanted to count Shen's dowry according to the booklet.

This startled Aunt Liu. While comforting the eldest lady, she made excuses to delay, and at the same time told the girl beside her to go find Ji Mingxuan. She has held Shen's dowry for three years. .
