Chapter 60

Rong Lanxue was in doubt, she dared not look at the book carefully, she quickly pretended to be shy, and said, "Madam, all the guests are here, let's talk about it another day."

The Jiang family laughed, and said: "Xue'er, you are very wise and brave. You dare to sue your own father internally, open a shop alone externally, take the dowry in advance, divide the house, and wipe your neck to force your father to resign the marriage." , what else can't you do?"

Hey, is this a compliment or a derogation?Rong Lanxue blinked.

Jiang continued: "Your father is not afraid of you wiping your neck, but I am. I have a daughter who is about to marry. You are not afraid of getting a bad reputation, but I am. So, let me give you a whole favor, let you Choose by yourself, if you are satisfied, I can marry Miss Qing."

Even so, there is no need to rush the guests to do this, right?Unless...unless she did it on purpose?Why?Could it be that she was afraid that she would be dissatisfied and would wipe her neck, so she invited so many guests to the house to force her to restrain herself?
But if she handed this book to her and let her choose a few days slowly, she would be too satisfied, so why would she wipe her neck?

Unless, Jiang is in a hurry to marry her off, but why is he in a hurry to marry her off?
Rong Lanxue's heart was full of turmoil, but she didn't dare to ask directly, so she could only say: "I am very grateful for Madam's kindness, but I am a girl, so I don't know how to distinguish between good and bad. Why don't you wait for the guests to leave and Madam will help me?" Analyze analysis."

Jiang Shi shook his head: "Xue'er, I know you. If I give you this booklet, you will have ten days and half a month. You won't make a selection, and you will hold back to check on the people above. Is the family background true? You can't resist to see whether these people are tall or short, fat or thin? You can't resist asking about these people's temperament? And I don't have the time to wait for you. "

What Jiang shi said was right, she really thought so... It turned out that Jiang shi knew her so well.For a moment, Rong Lanxue didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and couldn't help but said, "Madam really thinks highly of me."

Jiang smiled: "After being sentenced and divorced, do you think I will still treat you like an ordinary girl? How many ordinary girls dare to sue their own father? And you are a pure and honest businessman now Therefore, when dealing with businessmen, it is natural to be considerate."

"But why can't my wife wait? I'm only sixteen." Rong Lanxue had no choice but to ask directly, even though she guessed that Jiang probably wouldn't tell the truth.

Sure enough, Mrs. Jiang had heard her question and was silent for a long time.But Rong Lanxue kept staring at her and refused to look away.Xu felt Rong Lanxue's persistence and stubbornness, and Jiang finally said, "Because I want to make a marriage for Sister Qing. Seniors and children are orderly. If you don't make a marriage quickly, how will she get married? "

Rong Lanxue was even more surprised: "Sister Qing is one year younger than me, what's the rush?"

Jiang remained silent for a long time, pointed to the notebook in her hand, and said, "Hurry up and choose, the guests are still in the garden and no one is greeting them."

It turned out that the crux of Jiang's urgency did not lie with her, but with Sister Qing.What is the reason that Jiang can't wait to marry Sister Qing?Rong Lanxue was puzzled, but it could be seen from Jiang's solemn eyes that if she didn't pick a family out today, she would definitely not let her out of this room.

As for threatening to commit suicide again—the guests are in the garden, and they will come to watch the excitement whenever there is any movement. Unless she doesn't want to marry in the future, otherwise such a shocking thing, don't even think about it.

Therefore, the only thing she can do is to pick a family from this book in front of Jiang Shi, and she can't go back on it afterwards - she doesn't need Jiang Shi to remind her, she also knows that she has already withdrawn her marriage once, if If you retreat again, others will discuss it.

Jiang urged again, and a servant girl came in and told: "The guests are just joking, and asked why the wife didn't go, and if there is something interesting that they don't want to tell them."

Rong Lanxue's heart tightened, if the guests came at this time, Jiang would probably take back the book immediately and point her to a random family, but she seemed to have no leverage to refuse.Forget it, anyway, in this era, I have long been mentally prepared to marry blindly, as long as I don't pick a marriage that Rong Tiancheng might use as a bargaining chip just like the last two times.Rong Lanxue took a deep breath and looked intently at the notebook.Of the three people on the first page, she knew two of them, one was Jiang Zhiyuan, the other was Zong Yunlong, and the third was a teacher from the county yamen, from a poor family.On the second page, there are also three people, one is a nameless official who donated money like Rong Tiancheng, one is a rich man in a neighboring county, powerful and powerful, but married to a surname, his family already has three children, and the other , is a decent official in the capital, who takes concubines.

Flip it backwards, and it will be gone.

Rong Lanxue stared at the blank last page, and was a little taken aback. Cheng Dong Li Yu was not on the book at all. What's going on?Even if Jiang was afraid that she would rub his neck again, he would not not list him. After all, he specified that he wanted to marry her, and she had so many choices. If she really didn't want to marry him, she didn't have to choose. .

Rong Lanxue raised her head to look at Jiang Shi, and saw that Jiang Shi turned her head to the side as soon as she met her suspicious gaze, as if unwilling to say more.Rong Lanxue thought to herself, there must be a ghost in it, but anyway, she doesn't want to marry into the Li family, and the ghost has nothing to do with her, so she lowered her head and continued to study the book.

Officials in the capital take concubines and are excluded first.She doesn't even think about continuing, she doesn't have the courage to be a stepmother when she just gets married.Jiang Zhiyuan... She was very hesitant, she had a good impression of this person, but what happened last time really made her feel cold.Zong Yunlong has a bad temper and is too far away from home.Master of this county, I don’t know how poor his family is. If it is difficult for him to support himself, she doesn’t want to marry such a person. It’s not because she dislikes poverty and loves wealth. Families where the wife's earning ability far exceeds that of the husband are not stable.The one who donated to the official position can be considered, but she doesn't know how to behave, whether there are concubines in the family, she can't bear these things.

Picking and picking, until the end, she wished she could hug her head and groan. She had seen marriage too thoroughly and was too rational, so she rejected Rong Tiancheng's arrangement twice before and after, hoping for a love that knew everything, but obviously , These are all wishful thinking in this era.But a person who is too sober, no matter in modern times or today, must be very difficult to marry, what should she do?
Seeing her embarrassment, Mrs. Jiang understood it very well, and said: "It is true that people like us cannot be high or low, and those who are rich, we feel that their status is not worthy, and those from poor families, we are afraid that we will suffer disadvantages if we marry. , if we meet someone powerful and powerful, they will look down on us."

Listening to what she said, Rong Lanxue's mind flashed. The Jiang family was born and raised in Linjiang County. He must know more about the looks and temperament of these people than she does. Why don't you ask her?However, to ask directly, in order for her to get married, she doesn't necessarily tell the truth, why not... She thought for a while, then raised her head and asked: "Madam, why is there no Li family in the east of the city?"

As expected, Jiang's face froze: "Why, you changed your mind, is it possible to marry into the Li family?"

Rong Lanxue hurriedly said: "My wife misunderstood, but since the Li family has specified that they want to marry me, and his family is powerful and powerful, if my wife refuses to agree to them, wouldn't it be embarrassing for them?"

Jiang shi snorted, and said, "You have already fallen once, this time is not bad."

Rong Lanxue said: "It's just that I have already refuted it once, so I am even more afraid that they will become angry."

Jiang said indifferently: "I have other arrangements for this matter, so you don't have to worry."

Rong Lanxue showed doubts on her face, Jiang paused and paused, and finally said: "Anyway, you will know about it soon, why don't you just tell you, I have decided to marry your second sister to the Li family gone."

Rong Lanqing is going to marry into the Li family?Doesn't the Jiang family dislike Li Yu's poor health and thinking about others?Or... Was it Rong Lanqing who fell in love with Li Yu?Well, Li Yu is indeed not bad-looking, and quite capable, and she may not know about Lu'er.

Rong Lanxue bowed her head and said nothing, Jiang Shi became a little unhappy, and said, "Why, you still miss the Li family? Then I will ask your second sister to let go of the marriage."

Let her out to worry about it!Rong Lanxue hurriedly said: "Madam misunderstood, I'm just worried that the Li family will be unhappy if they find out, after all, they booked me earlier. If they are unhappy, will they deal with our family's business? If our family's business is ruined because of this Affected, father can't spare me!"

Jiang's expression softened slightly, and said: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have already talked to Mrs. Li, now you just need to pick a family out, and I will definitely marry you off in a good manner."

Rong Lanxue could see that the Jiang family was still a little bit guilty and embarrassed about Yi Marriage, which was probably one of the reasons why she was willing to give the booklet and let her choose whatever she wanted.Now that she sees her guilt and embarrassment, she can feel free to ask for help: "Madam, in this book, except for the continuation and concubine's room, which I firmly refuse, I look at the others. It's all okay, but I'm young and my eyesight is not right, so I don't know what is really good and what is really bad, so I ask my wife to take pity on me and give me a hand."

These words sounded sweet, and the Jiang family was happy to give him a favor, so he said: "Jiang Zhiyuan is now my nephew. With his name, if you choose her, Fengguanxiapei is not impossible. Although the third son of the Zong family has a bad temper, he is not a bad person, and he is willing to settle down in Linjiang County, which is worth considering. That master, a man It's too pedantic, so the family is poor, but he is a decent person. If you don't dislike him, you can marry him. As for the son who was born as a donated official, I met his mother once, and his appearance is nothing to complain about. , but I don't know his character."

Rong Lanxue thanked her, and then asked: "I don't know which of these families have a house or a concubine's room? Or, do you like to visit Qinglou?"

Jiang stared at her blankly for a while, then gasped: "Xue'er, don't you want to marry someone who doesn't have a connecting room at home? It's hard to find! Besides, even if you didn't have a concubine before getting married, How can there be no one after marriage? It’s just a matter of how much you share. But as long as your dowry is rich and your natal family has a background, the concubine’s room can’t surpass you.”

When Rong Lanxue heard this, she couldn't hide her disappointment: "They all have roommates?" Do they have to share the same man with other women?God, it's disgusting to think about it, why not twist your hair and be a sister-in-law...

Mrs. Jiang hesitated for a moment, motioned her to return the notebook, read it carefully, thought for a while, and then said in an uncertain tone: "The master's family is completely empty, there must be no room in the house, the family of the third son of Zong It's far away, I don't know if there is a room for it, as for Zhiyuan... When he was just adoptive, my father gave him two maids, but I don't know if he took over the house, my mother passed away early, There is no one in the family to take care of the middle school, only my father's two concubines are doing their best to take care of some chores, no one cares about these things, it's not easy to ask about such things."
