Chapter 224 Fear Before Marriage?

The news of the marriage bestowed by the old emperor did not come out from the imperial decree, but the oral order had already reached the Hou Mansion.

However, Jiang Youcai was busy tonight, so he didn't have time to be excited about his upcoming appointment as the father-in-law of the Twelve Princes.

Jiang Jinyue did not go back to Lanyuexuan, the advanced courtyard of the old lady.

It just so happened that Mama Wang was preparing dinner, the old lady was sitting in the courtyard enjoying the cool air, and Bai Ziang was looking at the trinkets given by the old emperor. Those who picked and picked were divided into two categories, valuable ones and worthless ones.

"Come over for dinner."

The old lady held a round fan and waved to Jiang Jinyue.

Jiang Jinyue walked over, took the old lady's hand affectionately, and felt her pulse.

"I scared my grandmother today."

"Well, I was scared at first, but after seeing the Twelve Kings, I felt relieved."

The old lady patted Jiang Jinyue on the head with a round fan.

Jiang Jinyue felt the old lady's pulse carefully, and asked casually.

"Grandmother also met the Twelve Kings?"

"No, I met at the gate of the palace. He was afraid that I would be hot, so he sent me back."

"The Twelve Kings sent you back?"

The old lady's pulse was steady, her face was rosy, and she was full of energy. She didn't seem to have any signs of heatstroke.

Jiang Jinyue was relieved, thinking that the old lady should not have been waiting outside the palace for a long time, and then she happened to see Li Zongyu, so she came back with peace of mind.

"He didn't tell you?"

The old lady looked at Jiang Jinyue with a smile.

What she told Li Zongyu at that time were all the bad thoughts of the old emperor, how could she have time to talk about the old lady?
Jiang Jinyue also smiled, shook her head, and took the chopsticks handed over by Mama Wang.

"He did a good job."

"I'm going to marry him soon, and that's how you evaluate him?"

The old lady couldn't laugh or cry.

Jiang Jinyue squinted her eyes and smiled, deliberately teasing the old lady.

"Then how should I evaluate? I should evaluate my future husband, who is upright, tall and righteous, righteous, courageous and resourceful?"

"You girl!"

The old lady poked Jiang Jinyue's forehead with her fingers, paused, and sighed.

"My girl Yue, I'm getting married in September."

As soon as these words were said, the atmosphere inevitably became sad.

The old emperor came too early, and Jiang Jinyue hadn't figured out how to tell the old lady. Someone must have told the old lady what happened in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

She doesn't want to marry Li Zongyu, and there is still a month left. It would be best if the matter of the Hou Mansion can be resolved. If not, she wants to take the old lady and the children away.

"Grandmother."

Jiang Jinyue put down her chopsticks, her nose felt sour, and she hugged the old lady's arm acting like a spoiled child.

"Grandma, Jinyue doesn't want to get married, but wants to stay with grandma for the rest of her life."

"You silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about? Girls are always going to marry, and look at you, you have even given birth to a child, so what do you say about staying with me for the rest of your life?"

The old lady touched Jiang Jinyue's forehead lovingly.

Jiang Jinyue just thought that she was going to marry Li Zongyu, her scalp was numb and her mood was complicated.

"Grandma, why don't I take you and run away with the child? I don't want to enter the imperial city, and I don't want to get married."

Acting like a baby, Jiang Jinyue looked at the old lady tentatively.

The old lady took a mouthful of red bean paste with chopsticks and stuffed it into Jiang Jinyue's mouth.

"In this world, one of the three most unbelievable words is that the big girl said she didn't want to marry."

Jiang Jinyue swallowed the red bean paste mixed with sugar, frowned, and looked at the old lady aggrieved.

The old lady smiled and continued.

"When I got married, our Lord Hou was eight years older than me, and everyone scared me. Lord Hou was a dude and unfilial, and his angry family was like a dog, and he even got involved with water bandits. In the situation at that meeting, how can a girl like me dare to marry?"

"and after?"

Jiang Jinyue seldom heard the old lady mention the old master, and dug another piece of red bean paste.

"However, a few days before we got married, Master Hou came to look for me secretly."

"Grandfather is so bold!"

In a dynasty like the old lady's, the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, marriage matters have never been interrupted by a girl's family. If the marriage is settled, even if the old lady says she doesn't want to marry, she will be knocked out. stuffed into the sedan chair.

Therefore, even if the old Hou Ye didn't come to the door, the old lady would have to marry.

"No, I'm daring, I'm terrified, I've never seen a foreigner so presumptuous!"

The old lady reached out and handed the porcelain bowl to Mama Wang, asking Mama Wang to add some soup to her.

"However, when he came into my room, he did not act like an apprentice, but bowed his hands to me and saluted me. He told me that he liked me. If I agreed, he would marry me. If I didn't Agree, he can call off the marriage without damaging my reputation."

"Grandfather actually said this?"

"That's right, the maidservant was outside the door at that time, and when she heard what Old Hou Ye said, she was so scared that she didn't dare to move!"

Mother Wang also laughed, and put the soup bowl in front of the old lady.

On the old lady's face, there was a look called nostalgia, which was full of sadness.

"I have a few close friends in my boudoir, all of whom got married in a muddleheaded way. Before they got married, they had never seen what the other person looked like. The moment the old Hou Ye came into my room and asked me if I would like to, I knew , Old Hou Ye is different, different from the dandy and slutty people in everyone's mouth, different from all men."

"Grandmother is so happy."

Jiang Jinyue couldn't help sighing.

It sounds like old master Bai Xiangyu is really a charming man.

"Aren't you happy?"

The old lady asked back.

Jiang Jinyue was taken aback for a moment, and saw the old lady grab her hand, and said lovingly.

"You and the Twelve Kings have known each other in a small way, love each other, and have children. How many people are happier than those who are blindly married? The Twelve Kings are a good man, standing up to the sky, firm and strong, and letting go of you for you." My son, I still depend on you in everything, and never complain about this Hou's mansion, isn't it good enough?"

"."

The old lady didn't know about her alliance with Li Zongyu, so in the eyes of the old lady, Li Zongyu could indeed be regarded as a good man with 24 filial piety. Moreover, the old lady didn't know that in Jiang Jinyue's concept, marriage had to be based on Modern thinking based on love, in a society like Rong Kun, how can it be possible for her to love freely?

"Yue girl, grandma is old. If you want to run, where can you go? Is it the king of the world? Even if you run to the desert or Turkic, you may not be able to escape. You are afraid now. , It's normal for a girl before marriage not to want to marry or even to run away, but after you get married, grandma might want to see you, so you don't necessarily want to come back."

The old lady gave her a reproachful look, and ate the light ginseng chicken soup.

Jiang Jinyue was stunned for a while, looking at the old lady and Ms. Wang.

Co-author, she just accepted a lesson of "Marriage Phobia" pre-marital psychological guidance in a daze?
