209 Chapter 209, marrying the general

Weifu and his party returned to the mansion.

General Wei stayed in the front yard directly, and in the back yard, Mrs. Wei sent those concubines away.

Then she said: "Su Yue, you go outside and watch."

"Mother, you've been working hard all day, go to bed early, my daughter is going home first." Seeing that something was wrong, Wei Zhi immediately wanted to run away.

However, after Mrs. Wei glanced at her, Wei Zhi didn't dare to speak out.

Seeing Su Yue retreat and close the door, Wei Zhi became more and more uneasy.

Mrs. Wei looked at her daughter and sighed, "Zhi'er, don't you want to marry Xun Mao?"

"Mother, aren't you angry?" Wei Zhi, who thought she was about to be interrogated, said in astonishment.

Mrs. Wei rubbed her forehead, but did not answer.

But such a mother made Wei Zhi feel even more uncomfortable.

She said with a downcast expression, "Mother, I'm not unwilling."

"Zhi'er, are you not even willing to tell Wei Niang the truth?" Mrs. Wei frowned slightly, and said sadly, "If you are willing, why did you act arrogantly in front of General Xun?"

Seeing that her mother was sad, Wei Zhi became anxious.

She hurriedly explained: "Mother, I didn't do it on purpose. Zhi'er came out of the garden and saw General Xun standing at the door. She wanted to get acquainted with General Xun. Unexpectedly, instead of saying a few words... ..."

Thinking of her words that were almost equivalent to a confession at that time, Wei Zhi paused, and a look of embarrassment flashed across her face.

Then, she gritted her teeth and continued: "That Miss Jiao family appeared. Mom, General Xun likes that woman."

After all, I know my daughter's temper.

Mrs. Wei already understood when she heard this.

It must be because my daughter was angry for a while, and she targeted Miss Jiao's family.

At this time, Mrs. Wei regretted raising her daughter so naively.

Sighing again, Mrs. Wei said sadly, "I planned to let you make a good impression on General Xun today..."

It's best that Xun Mao can take a fancy to his own daughter and come to ask for marriage in person.

But it's all over now.

"Mother, General Xun has his own heart, so I don't want to marry him." Wei Zhi immediately expressed his attitude after hearing what his mother said.

Madam Wei said, "Zhi'er, don't be willful. General Xun is your best choice."

It is also the best choice for our mother and son.

"But the person General Xun likes is that ugly woman who puts on airs." Wei Zhi said unwillingly.

Mrs. Wei: "Zhi'er, men in this world are mostly unlucky people. It doesn't matter if General Xun likes that young lady of the Jiao family. As long as you become his wife and have your father around, he will not dare to treat you harshly." .”

As she said that, Mrs. Wei's eyes became darker, "Zhi'er, you are old too, mother has something to say, and I can tell you. The most important thing about our daughter's family is the mother's family and children, and among the two, children are particularly important." A woman can't count on her husband, but the person she can count on in the end is your son."

Seeing that her daughter was startled by her own words, Mrs. Wei continued: "Love and love are always reminders for our girls. Zhi'er, you must remember that, don't believe what love says."

"Mother?" Wei Zhi was startled, and she softly called out for protection.

Madam Wei beckoned, "Zhi'er, come here. Sit beside Mother."

Wei Zhi walked over in a daze.

Madam Wei sighed and hugged him in her arms.

"Zhi'er, when you marry Xun Mao, give birth to a son, and raise him well, you will have a lifetime of support."

Hearing this, Wei Zhi was at a loss, "Mother, the relationship between the general and his wife is very good. The general also promised not to take concubines."

"Stupid daughter, have they been married for a long time?" Mrs. Wei said disapprovingly, "Now that the wife of the general is beautiful, men will naturally look up to her. But no matter how beautiful she looks, she will get bored every day. From now on, the days will be long." Let's go!"

Mrs. Wei's last sentence was very meaningful.

Wei Zhi struck his head like a thunderbolt.

Seeing her daughter's condition, Mrs. Wei only thought that the other party had listened.

At this time, she felt that her head did not hurt so much.

Then he said: "Zhi'er, what mother saw today is that Miss Jiao's family is not raised by ordinary people. The good news is that she is also not liked by the general's wife. Even so, with this person around, she will be a threat. So , we can't wait patiently any longer. Alas! It's just a trick, and I have wronged my son after all."

"Mother, I don't want to marry Xun Mao." These words caught Wei Zhi's ears and woke Wei Zhi up, she hurriedly shouted.

Mrs. Wei: "...Zhi'er, didn't you listen to what mother said?"

"Mother, I listened to it." Wei Zhi nodded, "But I listened to it, so my daughter doesn't want to marry Xun Mao, and my daughter wants to marry the general."

Mrs. Wei pushed her daughter away with a swipe, "Wei Zhi, you are crazy! How dare you say such shameless words?"

"Mother, it's what you said just now. The friendship between the general and his wife is only temporary. The general will always have other women, so why can't it be me?" Wei Zhi was not sad when she was pushed away, she said quickly .

Mrs. Wei was furious, she pointed at her daughter with trembling hands, "How can you be a concubine as a concubine in the general's mansion?"

"Mother, my daughter has thought about it seriously. Both the general and General Xun are not good-looking, and they both have their own hearts. If the daughter wants to marry, why not marry someone with more power?" Wei Zhi paused and said again: "Mother, today At the gate of the garden, I decided not to marry General Xun."

Mrs. Wei took a deep breath, "How can this matter be as settled as you said? Even if the two of them belong to each other, but if you marry General Xun, you are the official wife, but if you marry the General, you can only be a concubine. Concubine Room, it doesn’t even count as the word “marriage” and can only say the word “na.”

Na, this word, Mrs. Wei said it harshly and emphatically.

Wei Zhi was stunned immediately.

Mrs. Wei saw the opportunity, and immediately continued: "Zhi'er, there are concubines in our house. You have watched their lives since you were young, do you think it's okay? You can't call yourself a mother, but you have to follow the mistress. Even if you are a favored concubine, don’t you serve me carefully? Concubine, what is that? It’s half a servant.”

Mrs. Wei really wanted to take advantage of her daughter's marriage, but she definitely didn't want to rape her because of this.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Wei said again: "Mother has a kind heart, so the aunts in our mansion, except for those who are unlucky, live well. But Zhi'er, you have to understand, not every mistress, It's the same as being a mother. Think about it for yourself, is the wife of the general a good person?"

"Mother, it's Zhi'er who missed the point." At this point, Wei Zhi was finally afraid.

Before, Wei Zhi only thought that her mother wanted her to marry Xun Mao, so as to stabilize the status of their concubine's wife in the mansion.

So after Xun Maona was stimulated, she thought that it would be better not to marry Xun Mao, but to marry the general.

But after hearing what my mother said, Wei Zhi realized that her thinking was too simple.

She has been pampered and brought up since she was a child. If she is asked to lie down and be a child, she cannot do it.

Perhaps, what she said about marrying the general was more out of anger.

It was dissatisfaction with her mother for letting her marry and stabilize her status in the mansion.

But why, in her mind, the scene where the general and his wife are standing together keeps appearing?

After hearing her daughter's words of repentance, Mrs. Wei finally let out a sigh of relief.

She took her daughter into her arms again, "Good Zhi'er, what happened at the gate of the garden today, although you praised the general's wife, in the end, because of your own thoughts, the general's wife was involved. So tomorrow's mother chooses a gift , you and I will personally go to the door and give it to the general’s wife.”

If it was before her daughter said the shocking words just now, Mrs. Wei would definitely not want to give gifts.

But now, she did nothing else, just to let her daughter feel the discomfort of standing in front of the general's wife while it was hot.

Shuri, after lunch, Mrs. Wei took her daughter to Jinfu.

But when they arrived, they got bad news.

The general's wife, Fu Jinzhi, has gone to the guest house.

At this time, Fu Jinzhi was already in the guest courtyard, and he and Jiao Zhen had expressed their purpose.

"The general's wife came here today to propose marriage for General Xun?"

Because of his astonishment, Jiao Zhen lost control of his expression for a moment.

The beauty of the general's wife in front of her is indeed rare in her life.

His family, Ah Miao, did not deserve to lose yesterday.

But what was even more astonishing was that what the other party said now was beyond Jiao Zhen's expectations.

Fu Jinzhi didn't seem to notice Jiao Shen's momentary astonishment.

She replied seriously: "Yes, and begging Mr. Jiao to give up his love?"

"Madam of the General, did General Xun Mao ask you to come here?" Based on Jiao's understanding of Xun Mao, the other party would not come to propose marriage so early.

Fu Jinzhi nodded, "It was entrusted by General Xun. Mr. Jiao may not know that General Xun's parents are no longer there, and my general and General Xun are very close, so he asked me to come forward. As long as Mr. Jiao agrees, I can do it today." Find a matchmaker."

Xun Mao really never thought of proposing marriage so early, or it can be said that Xun Mao hadn't thought about proposing marriage.

But after Jin Meng had a detailed discussion with the other party in the study yesterday, Xun Mao agreed.

If Xun Mao really disagreed, Fu Jinzhi would not come today.

"Madame General, can you tell me what made General Xun Mao want to propose marriage?" Jiao Zhen stroked his beard and asked, "It's not that the grassroots don't trust the general's wife, it's that the grassroots saw General Xun Mao before." , I have never seen him have such a heart."

Fu Jinzhi raised his lips, "Mr. Jiao's question is so strange. Not to mention that I don't understand what General Xun is thinking, even if I do, I wouldn't know about such a change in my heart."

After a pause, Fu Jinzhi said again: "Perhaps the daughter was invited to attend the banquet yesterday, which made General Xun feel a sense of crisis."

Jiao Zhen: "..."

What I just asked was Xun Mao's change of heart?
No!

What I want to know is, is there any involvement of that mysterious staff member behind the marriage proposal?

Now that the words have not come out, I heard the other party mention what happened yesterday.

A sneer flashed across Jiao Zhen's eyes, but he smirked on his face and said: "The wife of the general is just joking. Who doesn't know, your beauty makes my little girl feel ashamed."

Fu Jinzhi nodded seriously, "What Mr. Jiao said is absolutely true, my appearance is indeed much better than Ling Qianjin's."

Jiao Zhen: "..."

She was really an uneducated concubine, without the slightest bit of humility.

He thought that it was because the other party was so uneducated that he made his Ah Miao suffer.

Yesterday Jiao Zhen said in his mouth that it is a blessing that his daughter can grow up.

But in fact, Jiao is very displeased with this uneducated concubine lady from the Jing'an Hou Mansion.

He secretly said: That Jin Meng is also useless, being fascinated by such a woman with only a face.

However, Jiao Zhen is a man, he understands best.

A woman like this who can only see her face will be rejected by men sooner or later.

Thinking of this in his mind, Jiao Zhen was not so angry anymore.

Beauty, at the age when Jiao Jin admired it, he also valued it.

But the beautiful woman he loved when he was young has long been wasted in the backyard.

Thinking about it, Jiao Zhen was no longer in the mood to waste time with this woman in front of him who could foresee a tragedy.

Anyway, it is impossible for such a woman to know what is going on outside.

"Madam of the General, the marriage must not be sloppy at all. Please come back temporarily, Madam of the General, and wait for me to reply in a few days."

Fu Jinzhi got up when he heard the words, "Waiting for Mr. Jiao's reply."

While saying this, Fu Jinzhi glanced at the inner room.

She was extremely fast, and Jiao Zhen was standing there again, so no one noticed Fu Jinzhi's glance.

Wait for Fu Jinzhi's figure to disappear in the guest courtyard.

In the inner room that Fu Jinzhi glanced at just now, Ah Miao of the Jiao family walked out quickly.

"Father, don't accept the marriage proposal."

As soon as she came out, Ah Miao of the Jiao family said anxiously.

Jiao Zhen sat down, "Amiao, your current appearance is extremely inappropriate."

At that moment, Ah Miao of the Jiao family slowed down her pace, and her voice became even more unhurried.

"Father, Ah Miao was in a hurry and lost her composure."

Jiao Zhen: "It's nothing to lose your composure for a while, what's terrible is losing your composure forever."

Putting his hand on his chin, he stroked his beard and said, "I saw that girl in the backyard just now, she has no female upbringing at all."

Father is in a good mood now.

Ah Miao of the Jiao family thought through his father's words and actions.

In fact, in the inner room separated by a wall, Ah Miao of the Jiao family also heard Fu Jinzhi's words without humility.

Only then did she know that it was no accident that the woman dared to say unfilial remarks yesterday.

The other party is such an uneducated person.

She thinks the same as her father.

Now that the love is strong, naturally I don't care about it.

When the relationship fades in the future, such an open-mouthed woman will not be a threat at all.

Jiao Zhen suddenly asked: "Amiao, if you were the second daughter of the concubine of Jing'an Hou Mansion, what would you do in the face of your unkind aunt?"

"Father, if it's Ah Miao. Ah Miao will hate the unkind aunt in her heart, and then secretly teach her a lesson, but she will never be a target of verbal criticism." The Jiao family's Ah Miao thought for a while, and said confidently.

Hearing this, Jiao Zhen showed a satisfied expression, "In life, no one can escape the mouth of others. Ah Miao, you need to always remember that words are terrifying. And this general's wife seems to be smart, but she is actually It's settled."

After saying this, Jiao Zhen's expression changed, he looked at his daughter and said, "Amiao, I plan to agree to today's marriage proposal."

"Father?" Ah Miao, who was complacent, suddenly exclaimed.

Jiao Zhen winked.

The startled Ah Miao immediately restrained her expression.

But she still couldn't help asking: "Father, isn't our goal the general? Why did you agree to other people's marriage proposal?"

"Because I am now on a match with my opponent!"
