Captain Leng slipped away to chase his wife again

Chapter 164 The Cao family did not come

The entire Jiang family was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and it was crowded with people.

The gates of Jiang's house were full of luxurious cars from various aristocratic families, and there were countless guests from all walks of life who came to congratulate them.

The head of the Jiang family, Jiang Haotian, and his son Jiang Hewen greeted him personally at the gate.

Everyone had smiles on their faces.

"Miss Biao, there are many people coming outside!"

Xiangxiu ran into the room bluffing, and said to Zhang Wen who was sitting quietly at the table reading, but couldn't read a word.

A lot of people are here?
Of course Zhang Wen knew that many people would definitely come today.

But what about this?
You can't push it yourself, you can't hide it, you can only be forced to accept it.

"Miss Biao, don't you want to take a look?"

Seeing that Zhang Wen's eyes were still fixed on the book, Xiangxiu couldn't help asking strangely.

Today is the day when Miss Biao and Young Master Cao are engaged!Unexpectedly, Miss Biao can still read the book at this time, she is too calm!
"The Cao family, are you here?"

Zhang Wen suddenly asked.

"what?!"

Hearing Zhang Wen's question, Xiangxiu frowned suspiciously: "No one from Cao's family seems to be here today. It's strange, the banquet ahead is about to start. It stands to reason that Cao's side should come early." Just come."

Xiangxiu said as she paced back and forth thinking: "Miss Biao, tell me, the Cao family doesn't want us to unilaterally complete the engagement, right?

However, this is against the rules!How can there be an engagement ceremony that is completed by one of the parties alone?It's not obvious, don't you take our Jiang family seriously! "

As Xiangxiu said, looking into Zhang Wen's eyes, she was still staring at the book, and she didn't seem to listen to her words at all. She couldn't help but went over and pulled the book from her hand: "Miss Biao , It’s not me talking about you. No matter what you say today, it’s your big day, you can’t just keep staring at the book!”

After speaking, he subconsciously looked at the book in his hand, and said to himself strangely: "Miss Biao, your reading habit is really weird. Why do you read the book backwards? Can you read it? Oh! I forgot, you were a teacher before, and the way you read books is a bit unique and not surprising."

While thinking about it, Xiangxiu saw Zhang Wen standing up from the corner of Xiangxiu's eyes, and hurriedly threw the book in her hand aside: "Miss Biao, what are you going to do? Just let Xiangxiu work. Oh, I almost forgot Alright! The engagement ceremony is about to begin, Miss Cousin, you haven't changed your clothes yet!"

Xiangxiu hurriedly went to get a set of pure white low-cut evening dress that she had prepared a few days earlier, pushed Zhang Wen who had stood up and sat down on the chair again, and gestured back and forth on her with the evening dress, her mouth also Don't forget to keep thinking:

"Miss Biao, this evening dress is tailor-made for you. If you wear it on your body, it will definitely compare to those so-called ladies in the capital city. Well, Miss Biao, you are naturally beautiful, and you have very good makeup without makeup. It looks good, but you still need to put on some light makeup."

While talking, she changed into the evening dress for Zhang Wen, and then took out a set of cosmetics, and applied them carefully.

During the whole process, Zhang Wen didn't say a word, and let Xiangxiu operate like a marionette.

On the way, Jiang Hewen came over and told Xiangxiu to take care of Zhang Wen as soon as possible, and then hurried out.

But Jiang Haotian, who greeted the guests at the gate, gradually became gloomy.

At this time, almost all the guests who should come have come.

But only today's other rightful master, Cao's family, no one came.

Earlier, he also called Zhuo Xiaoman, the eldest wife of the Cao family, and according to what he said, he would be there soon.

But when I called again later, the person on the other side didn't answer.

Feeling bad in his heart, Jiang Haotian called Cao Jingming again, but he still couldn't get through.

"Abba, the Cao family, are you still here?"

Jiang Hewen rushed over to ask.

Jiang Haotian shook his head.

"Has the person who inquired about the news returned? What did they say?" Jiang Hewen asked again.

"The Cao Group, there hasn't been any major incidents in the past two days. Logically speaking, no one should come." Jiang Haotian also couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, Jiang Hewen's mobile phone rang, and the latter pressed the answer button: "What's the situation? The people over there, why haven't they come yet?"

After Jiang Hewen answered the phone, he asked straight to the point.

The people who called were the people he had sent out to inquire about the news.

"Eldest young master, I found out that the eldest son of the Cao family was drunk at the Red Gate Bar the night before. The eldest son of the Leng family called seven or eight dancers to serve him, and he didn't come home until late last night.

But for some unknown reason, Director Cao Jingming was furious because of this, and beat Mr. Cao with a stick.It is said that the other party was seriously injured. Mrs. Cao has already sent Mr. Cao to the hospital, and he is still not out of danger. "

how so!
Jiang Hewen frowned fiercely.

"Father, the situation is not good."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Hewen looked at Jiang Haotian, and carefully explained what he had just said on the phone.

"Abba, will today's engagement ceremony still be held?" Jiang Hewen asked worriedly.

Jiang Haotian pondered for a while: "Nowadays, the news about the marriage of Jiang and Cao's two families has been widely spread by the media. Today is the day of the engagement, and the guests are full. If the engagement ceremony is canceled suddenly, it will not be guaranteed to the media. How to arrange it."

"Then what does Dad mean to continue?" Jiang Hewen's brows did not relax, but frowned even tighter.

It is not impossible to continue to do it, but Cao's family members are all absent, and no one is present, but it is a flaw.It can't be that the Jiang family just pushes out the female advocate Wen, but doesn't see the male lead of the Cao family, right?

"How about this, He Wen, you go and ask the old man for instructions. For my side, I will go to the hospital in person to see what the Cao family has said and see what they think."

Jiang Haotian left a word and drove his own car straight to Jingdu Hospital.

And Jiang Hewen, after appeasing the obviously impatient guests, walked towards another quiet courtyard of the Jiang family.

In this small courtyard, lived the old head of the Jiang family, Jiang Hewen's grandfather, Jiang Lezhang.

After the death of little aunt Jiang Haoyue, grandpa felt guilty and blamed himself, he didn't care about family matters, and after hastily handing over all matters to his father, he has been living in this small courtyard.

"Yue'er, why are you so confused? You lost your life because of your obsession"

In the small courtyard, Jiang Lezhang was holding a small wooden figurine, like a rare treasure, and muttering to himself there.

A head of gray hair, a beard that hasn't been taken care of for a long time, a sad expression, and deep memories in his eyes.

"You're not filial, you left daddy and just left. How much do you hate daddy!"

Jiang Lezhang caressed the little wooden figure in his hand, as if he regarded this little figure as his daughter.

"grandfather!"

Jiang Hewen walked in.

The old man turned a deaf ear, still staring at the object in his hand.

Jiang Hewen has long been used to Jiang Lezhang's ignorance.

Grandpa is thinking about others again. Whenever he falls into this state, he is the most impatient to be disturbed.

If it was usual, Jiang Hewen would naturally not come to disturb him at this time.

However, today is a special situation. What Dad meant was to ask him to come over and ask about the details of the matter and how to arrange it.

"grandfather."

Jiang Hewen came to the front and half squatted in front of Jiang Lezhang: "Grandpa, something happened at home, Dad asked me to ask you to go out and take charge of the overall situation."

"Go, go, old man, I don't care about family affairs. Get out too!"

Jiang Lezhang chased them away unceremoniously.

How could Jiang Hewen leave so easily?Haven't achieved the goal yet!
"Grandpa, originally, my dad and I didn't want to trouble you about this matter. But today is the engagement ceremony of my sister-in-law's daughter, my cousin who has been living outside. The man's side, because of some special reasons , I can’t come here for the time being. That’s why my grandson has the cheek to ask Grandpa for help.”

Jiang Hewen moved out Zhang Wen.

Sure enough, there was an instant reaction on Jiang Lezhang's face.

His eyes no longer fixed on the wooden man in his hand, but moved to Jiang Hewen's face.

Facing his only grandson, Jiang Lezhang didn't show any kindness on his face.

One of the things he regretted the most was forcing his daughter to marry for the benefit of the family, which eventually led to her tragic death.

For this matter, Jiang Lezhang could not forgive himself throughout his life.

However, Jiang Haotian and Jiang Hewen never came to their senses from this incident, and they still wanted to walk the path they had missed. Jiang Lezhang was so angry that he never intervened in the family affairs.

"What did you just say? Whose engagement? Yes, the child?"

Jiang Lezhang's voice trembled, and he asked in disbelief.

Why did that child, Awen, get engaged so soon?Did she do it voluntarily, or was it forced by the Jiang family?
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Jiang Lezhang's heart.

"Grandpa, it's my sister-in-law's daughter, that is, my cousin Zhang Wen, who is engaged today."

Jiang Hewen said it again with a calm face.

Jiang Lezhang suddenly grabbed Jiang Hewen's shoulders, and asked excitedly, "Engaged? Are you really going to get engaged? Who is the man? How is his character? Will you treat that child, Awen?"

Jiang Hewen's head was dizzy after being shaken, and when he heard that his grandfather asked about the man's character instead of his family background, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across his face.

But until now, he can only tell the truth: "Grandpa, the one who is engaged to his cousin is Cao Ren, the eldest son of the Cao family. The Cao family and our Jiang family happen to be in the same family. If we marry each other, we can reach a mutually beneficial agreement." relation.

Some time ago, the Leng family and the Ning family got married, and their power rose greatly.Our Jiang family and Cao family are also among the four major families in the capital. If we don't take action to unite, we are afraid that we will be completely suppressed by those two families.so--"

Jiang Hewen explained in detail about his upcoming marriage.

Marriage Marriage is Marriage
Jiang Lezhang could no longer hear what his grandson was saying.In his whole mind, the word "marriage" was repeated over and over again.

When he thought that his granddaughter would also suffer from the marriage, he lost his composure for an instant.

"He Wen, grandpa ordered you to call off this marriage immediately! Our Jiang family does not need to sacrifice the family's children, we rely on marriage to strengthen the family!"

Jiang Lezhang grabbed Jiang Hewen's shoulders, with a trace of anxiety in his solemn expression.

Jiang Hewen was astonished.

Before coming here, he had thought that his grandfather would definitely not agree to the marriage, but he never expected that his reaction would be so fierce that he would directly ask for an end to the engagement!
Fortunately, he was still thinking about how to persuade the old man to solve today's urgent need.

"Grandpa, are you getting old? Are you confused?" Jiang Hewen broke free from Jiang Lezhang's grasp and looked at him dissatisfied.

"What are you talking about? I'm old and confused? If your father is confused, I won't be confused!"

Jiang Lezhang was obviously angry.

This grandson of mine was so unfilial that he called him stupid!In his eyes, does he have a grandfather like himself?

"Where is Awen? I'm going to see her!"

Jiang Lezhang didn't want to talk to someone who couldn't make sense, so he planned to go directly to his granddaughter.

How could Jiang Hewen give way!
"Grandpa, have you misunderstood something? Well, in fact, it is useless for you to find your cousin. She and the Cao family are in love with each other and love each other. It happens that the Cao family and our Jiang family are the same four big families. We thought It was only through the strong alliance that we agreed to this marriage."

When Jiang Hewen saw that Jiang Lezhang was about to leave, he didn't care whether what he said was reasonable or not, so he threw it all out.

Sure enough, when Jiang Lezhang heard his words, he immediately stopped in his tracks, half-believing: "What you said is true? That child, Awen, and that kid surnamed Cao, each other, um, what?"

The old man was getting old, and he couldn't say the word "love each other" after all, so he just used that instead.

Jiang Hewen understood what he meant, and nodded frantically: "That's right, Grandpa, that's how it is. The two of them are in love. It's useless for you to find my cousin and ask her in person, she must be embarrassed told you."

"Then what do you want me to do with the old man?" Jiang Lezhang asked after pondering for a while.

Seeing that something was going on, Jiang Hewen hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Grandpa, it's like this."

He told exactly what happened today, and after he finished speaking, he said with a serious face: "So, grandpa, grandson is here to learn from you!"
