Ancient natural disasters: The whole family traveled through time and was almost wiped out

Chapter 254

Miss Jiang attracted the attention of her fellow ladies because she was too "quiet" at the banquet.

"Xiaomi, what's wrong with you today? Are you feeling unwell?"

"What? Not feeling well!" The eldest daughter of Minister Zhang was startled. "Why do you feel ill today? I was thinking about sneaking out to play polo later! Lu Er and the others are already waiting for us at the horse farm."

A group of unmarried men and women often get together to have fun. In the beginning, there were still a lot of people, but as the pressure to get married became stronger, the number of people became fewer and fewer. Now, there are only eight diehards, including Jiang Xiaomi, four men and four women.

The Lu Er mentioned by Miss Zhang is actually named Lu Hengliang, the second son of Lu Jijiu's family.

The Lu family is a family of learning and nobility, but they had a second son named Lu Hengliang who liked to tease cats and dogs.

Moreover, Mr. Lu's little thoughts about Miss Jiang are obvious to everyone - he likes Jiang Xiaomi.

The Lu family even sent a matchmaker to propose marriage to Marquis Xiaoyao's Mansion, but Jiang Xiaomi felt that they were more suitable to be brothers than husband and wife, so she refused and told him clearly.

Mr. Lu was a gentleman, and he didn't pester her in a despicable way. Instead, he quietly put his thoughts aside and got along with Jiang Xiaomi the same way he usually did.

But anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he had merely backed off, but had not completely let it go. Jiang Xiaomi had gone on several blind dates, but Mr. Lu had no interest in blind dates no matter how his family persuaded, threatened or lured him. Even if he accidentally got caught on a blind date, he would still leave in a dignified and polite manner.

Mrs. Lu was so angry that she no longer cared about him.

It doesn’t matter if he marries a pockmarked man or a cripple! It’s up to him, it’s up to him!!!

Miss Jiang didn't want to go at first. After all, in her memory, Sister Jiang played polo very well and often beat the opposing team. But she couldn't guarantee how well she would perform based on her memory. It was like martial arts. In her memory, "嬻嬻嬻——" kicking, punching and flying were so cool, but when she did it herself it was like having epilepsy, it was unbearable to watch.

——She wondered if playing polo would be the same!

If her level is extremely poor, then she should not embarrass herself.

Although she really wanted to go, she hadn't played polo for a long time and was itching to play.

Under the temptation of polo, Miss Jiang changed her mind and realized that she was quite good at playing polo. If she could master it, she would be very powerful!

If something really goes wrong, I will say that I am not feeling well and it has affected my level, and then I will never play polo again for the rest of my life.

Just like that, Miss Jiang followed everyone to the polo field. Just as she reined in her horse and hadn’t gotten off yet, a handsome young man ran towards her: “Miss Jiang, you’re here!”

Miss Jiang looked down at the man in front of her who was smiling at her. His face slowly overlapped with the young man from the past.

"Second Master Jiang."

Miss Jiang called softly.

Jiang Xiaomi and Lu Hengliang had met four years ago.

At that time, Jiang Yipei was still a small official in the Ministry of Works. He had no roots or foundation, and he was conscientious and cautious in the officialdom.

Jiang Xiaomi, a girl from a poor family, has no status in the socialite circle and may even be ostracized.

At a banquet once, Miss Jiang was once again deliberately bullied. When she was at a loss as to what to do, it was Lu Hengliang who casually rescued her.

For Jiang Xiaomi at that time, the appearance of Lu Hengliang was like Sun Wukong riding on a colorful cloud, saving her from danger.

However, not long after, Jiang Yipei was forced to leave officialdom and the capital because he was blamed.

Miss Jiang even cried for this. She knew that there was no possibility for her and Mr. Lu to be together before, and there would be no possibility for them to be together in the future.

Later, when she came to the modern era, she completely gave up.

Who knew that she would suddenly come back, and the person she used to miss was even more obsessed with her.

This is also the reason why Miss Jiang suddenly decided to play polo.

She didn't think of Lu Hengliang at first.

She did not deliberately open Sister Jiang's memory until she saw Lu Hengliang, then her memory was triggered. She "saw" the scene of Lu Hengliang expressing his love to Sister Jiang.

To be honest, she was happy.

Although she knew that the person Lu Hengliang liked was not her, the original Jiang Xiaomi, but was attracted by Sister Jiang's charm, so what?

In the modern world, she often sees videos that her classmates call "toxic chicken soup", which all emphasize that girls should love themselves first before loving others.

Miss Jiang feels that the best way to love herself now is to fulfill herself and put Lu Hengliang at the mercy of others.

Bitter fruit is also fruit!

If there really comes a day when both of them can no longer live together, the worst that can happen is divorce!

After a polo match, Miss Jiang talked to Lu Hengliang for a few words, and then Lu Hengliang ran around the field like crazy for a few laps. Finally, he waved to Miss Jiang and hurried home.

The wife of the chief priest thought something had happened and asked hurriedly, but it would have been better if she had not asked, because her troublesome son asked her to go to the Marquis Xiaoyao's Mansion for a walk!

What does walking mean?!

That was no ordinary walk!

It’s not that the Lu family cannot afford to marry the popular Marquis Xiaoyao - the Lu family is a prominent family and they are qualified to marry princesses and county lords, but is this the key?

The key point is that the young county lady doesn’t like her son!

After her son was rejected when he asked the official media to propose marriage, he refused and refused. He begged her to spend more time with Old Madam Jiang and Madam Jiang and try to find a solution from them.

Unable to resist her son's pleading, she went. What was the result?

——She went with a smug face and came back with a dark face, then went out again with a smug face and came back with a dark face again.

Although she did not bring up the idea of ​​marriage during both visits, who isn't a smart person?

So no matter how people mentioned it openly or secretly, they all listened to Miss Jiang. If Miss Jiang said no, then it was no!

After all, she is a lady of a noble family. How can she save face after being rejected three times in a row?

"Mom, just go, she agreed!"

The wife of the chief priest widened her eyes: "Who? Who agreed? What did they promise you?"

"Ouch! You ask even though you already know the answer!"

Seeing her son, who had never known what shame was, suddenly become shy, the chief priest's wife not only did not believe him, but even thought that he had gone crazy because he could not get the love he wanted!

She grabbed her son's arm and shouted, "Someone! Go to the Imperial Observatory to invite Taoist Master Qingxu!"

"Why are you asking Taoist Master Qingxu? Does he still have the matchmaking business? No - mother! You! I'm not crazy, I'm telling the truth!"

Lu Hengliang was devastated, secretly annoyed with himself for having acted too much in the past. Now even when he told the truth, his mother didn't believe him!

"Never mind, it's too late today."

Lu Hengliang waved his hand and said, "I'll have someone prepare the matchmaking gift box now. If you don't believe me, I'll go find a matchmaker myself! No, I'll go myself and be my own matchmaker!"

I am marrying the girl I love, so what rules are there?

but--

Lu Hengliang soon lost his temper again. He was used to being unrestrained and could face other people's criticism calmly, but he didn't want Jiang Xiaomi to face it. Even though people with her personality were not afraid of such criticism, he couldn't bear to do so. Why should his beloved woman be talked about for no reason because of his actions?

Finally, the wife of the chief priest believed Lu Hengliang for the last time and asked someone to invite an official matchmaker to her house. She had already prepared a lot of excuses, just to help her stupid son clear up the confusion in his head after the matchmaker failed in advance.

The king of Xiang has feelings, but the goddess has no dreams.

This kind of persistence will cause trouble to the girl, ruin her reputation, and force her to marry her. This is not what a gentleman does!

The Lu family allows you to make trouble, but does not allow you to be despicable!

But he couldn't say a word when the matchmaker came with a big red mouth, happily congratulating him and asking for a reward.

To be honest, she didn't doubt the matchmaker, she suspected her bastard son. Could she have guessed right?

——Miss Jiang was worried that her reputation would be ruined, so she had to marry under humiliation? !

The wife of the chief priest felt increasingly depressed until she personally visited the Jiang family the next day and found out what the family was saying. Only then did she feel finally at ease.

Following this great joy, they immediately began to prepare for the wedding.

There are more rules and regulations for marrying a county lady from a marquis's mansion. The betrothal gifts are all regulated, and the wedding time is relatively tight. There are so many things to do!

But the wife of the chief priest is happy!

Her bastard son's marriage had always been a huge worry for her. Now that the worry had been resolved, Lady Jijiu felt indescribably relieved.

The most important point is that there is finally someone to take care of this brat. She has been his mother for twenty years and has cleaned up his mess for nineteen years. She has had enough!

It was originally thought that the young couple would have conflicts, but they were actually bad company. Lu Hengliang even took his new wife out for a drink and didn't come back until midnight.

The new daughter-in-law took Lu Hengliang to farm and came home covered in mud.

Lu Hengliang took Jiang Xiaomi to the top of a mountain to camp, and they returned home with mosquito bites all over their heads and faces.

Jiang Xiaomi took Lu Hengliang to turn the soil, and her face was sunburned red. The next day, her skin started to peel off. The skin on her face fell off piece by piece, some black and some white. A good-looking young man became so ugly that even his mother couldn't recognize him.

At first she felt distressed and said a few words, but later she felt relieved. This was the lifestyle chosen by the children. She didn't understand it, but she respected it and was happy as long as they were happy.

Miss Jiang never thought that she would pick a very sweet fruit with the intention of picking a bitter fruit. It cannot be said that her married life with Lu Hengliang was without any quarrels, but most of it was happy. He would understand why a girl loved farming and research, and would even accompany her in studying. She also enjoyed his novel ideas, which made her originally peaceful life colorful.

Miss Jiang on this side married the young man she had been dreaming of, and Jiang Xiaomi on the other side widened her eyes when she saw Jiang Xiubai confessing his love to her.

No, brother, you really like me!

Jiang Bai came to Jiang Xiaomi two months later. After Jiang's mother's emotions stabilized, he told his parents the whole story bit by bit.

In fact, after spending more than a month together, Jiang's father has almost completely believed that this "Jiang Bai" is his biological son "Jiang Bai".

Apart from this face, Dad Jiang can feel that this is his son!

But why did he change his face?

cross?

Mr. Jiang didn’t know this word and even went to Baidu to search for it.

Mother Jiang’s attitude is different from father Jiang’s. From the first day Jiang Bai returned home, she had a feeling that her “son was back”, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.

Until Jiang Bai confronted them, Jiang's mother had only one thought - it was true!

Her Xiaobai is really back!

As the hurt her son suffered was healed by him, Jiang's mother's body and mind were slowly recovering while taking care of Jiang Bai. Her thinking was still very clear, and she felt that this matter should not be told to anyone except the two of them at this time.

In fact, we can talk to our grandparents, but they are too old, and we are afraid they cannot bear the joy and sorrow.

So what they were told was that Jiang Bai was their adopted son, his real name was Jiang Bai, and he was destined to be with them.

Jiang Bai's grandparents held Jiang Bai's hand and kept calling him a good boy.

They were indeed heartbroken about their grandson's untimely death, but they were even more heartbroken for their daughter. They watched her suffer every day and they were powerless to do anything.

If their daughter's condition improves because of Jiang Bai, they are willing to accept him and even leave the family property to him.

But Jiang Bai's grandparents were very unhappy, especially Jiang Bai's grandfather. The old man had a dark face and if he hadn't considered his daughter-in-law's illness, he would have started scolding.

They believe that Xiaobai is Xiaobai, and not just any Tom, Dick or Harry can take over the throne by occupying the same name!

Things that belong to Xiaobai cannot be shared with outsiders at all!

Seeing the old couple looking angry, Jiang Bai felt happy and sad. His grandparents loved him and doted on him the most. For a moment, he really wanted to tell them that he was Jiang Bai!

He is their grandson!

But he also knew that in the current situation, even if he told them, they would not believe it. They might even think that he had bad character and was talking nonsense, and believed that he had deceived his parents in this way.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and just when they didn't know what to do, Jiang's mother went crazy on the spot -

She held her head and screamed hysterically, calling out "Xiao Bai". She kept saying that Xiao Bai was not dead, that he was not dead, and that Jiang Bai was Xiao Bai!!!

No matter what Jiang's father did, it didn't work. Just when everyone was at a loss and ready to call an ambulance, Jiang Bai kept calling for her mother, which immediately coaxed her. She fixed her hair and said in a normal tone, "Mom is here."

It was as if the crazy woman just now was not her. Seeing this, Jiang Bai's grandparents felt cold in their hearts and sighed together. Although they were very reluctant, they no longer had a grandson. If their daughter-in-law was gone too, what would happen to their son? ?
