Scholar and old attack

"Mom, what happened?"

Xu Shuizhou stepped forward and asked.

He Yuzhu and Chen Xiuxiu looked at each other, and said softly, "You guys still know when you're coming back, there's no certainty all day long, when are you going to get married?"

Chen Xiuxiu also looked at Jiang Jingyuan expectantly, "And you too, as a man, why do you take every bit of responsibility, Shui Zhou follows you outside every day, do you know what the people in the village are talking about?"

When Jiang Jingyuan was obsessed with studying, there were occasional rumors in the village, but it was okay, but since Jiang Jingyuan recovered, he has been running around all day, even taking Xu Shuizhou with him.

The rumors began to spread, and all the nasty things were said. Once or twice, Chen Xiuxiu could still pretend that she didn't see it. After so many times, she couldn't help nagging.

"Get married..." Jiang Jingyuan only felt that it was too fast. He and Xu Shuizhou had only known each other for more than a month, and they got married, which was a bit hasty.

Xu Shuizhou's cheeks were flushed, he lowered his head and said nothing.

Jiang Jingyuan cast Xu Shuizhou a look for help, but Xu Shuizhou didn't even lift his head.

"Success or failure, you can say something today, so that we two mothers can't worry about it all day long." Chen Xiuxiu put down her harsh words and insisted on Jiang Jingyuan's explanation today.

He Yuzhu didn't speak, but gently took Xu Shuizhou's hand. As a mother, she knew her son's thoughts very well. If Jiang Jingyuan refused today, she would take Xu Shuizhou to leave Jiangyu Village no matter what.

Jiang Jingyuan rubbed the center of his brows, "Mother, if you get married, the family doesn't have enough money, so you can't be too sloppy in organizing the marriage."

Chen Xiuxiu smiled, and Jiang Jingyuan understood when he said this. He patted the table and said happily, "Just let it go, you don't have to worry about the money, mother will come and figure out a way."

"Alright then, the son obeys mother." Jiang Jingyuan spread his hands, ready to obey Chen Xiuxiu's arrangements.

Chen Xiuxiu hated that iron could not be made into steel, "What does it mean to listen to me? The key depends on your own will. If you don't want to, I can still hold a knife against you."

Jiang Jingyuan glanced at Xu Shuizhou, who was silent at the side, and sighed, "I just don't want to rush the wedding and make Ah Zhou feel wronged."

Jiang Jingyuan took a look at this house that was still able to withstand the wind and rain, and he himself did not dislike it, but as for Ah Zhou, he couldn't let him face a family of desolation once he got married.

Thinking about the fact that the family doesn't have much money now, if a wedding is to be arranged, it must be a simple wedding. Even if Ah Zhou doesn't dislike it, he is not willing to wrong him.

"You don't need to worry about that. Back then, your father saved a sum of money for your marriage. It's just that the money is in your grandma's hands. It will never be taken out until you get married."

Chen Xiuxiu was not worried about not having enough money to arrange the marriage. Before Jiang Yuanmao passed away, he left a sum of money alone with Jiang's mother, just to give them a way out.

As for why Jiang Yuanmao didn't live with Jiang's mother, it's a long story at this time. Jiang Yuanmao's father passed away when he was very young. go out.

At that time, Jiang Yuanmao was still young and stubborn. He refused to recognize Jiang's mother's married husband as his father, so he ran back to Jiangjia Village alone. Jiang's mother had no choice but to entrust the Jiang clan to take care of Jiang Yuanmao.

But Jiang Yuanmao was too stubborn and refused to accept the money from Jiang's mother, which led to the fact that when he was ten years old, he had no money to study.

Later, Jiang Yuanmao was admitted as a scholar and married Chen Xiuxiu, so he took Chen Xiuxiu to Jiang's mother to recognize the family, but the two families have never had any contact.

It wasn't until Jiang Yuanmao was about to die that Jiang Yuanmao let Jiang's mother come to see him for the last time. At this time, Jiang Yuanmao left a sum of money with Jiang's mother, and told Chen Xiuxiu not to take the money until Jiang Jingyuan got married. come out.

"Grandma." Jiang Jingyuan frowned, he only had a little impression in his memory, "Let's not talk about grandma's family, how is the family, if we rush to the door like this, grandma will recognize it."

Chen Xiuxiu smiled, "You don't have to worry about that. Your grandma is married to Ren's family, a well-known wealthy businessman in Wutong County. Over the years, people have been sent to inquire about you every year. After all, you are her grandson, right?"

The Ren family is a well-known wealthy businessman in Wutong County, and they do a very good job in the silk business. There are many farmers in Jiangyu Village who raise silkworms and sell them to the Ren family. As for why the Ren family fell in love with Jiang Mu, a second-married woman , which is unknown.

Jiang Jingyuan was in a complicated mood for a while.

"Then this matter will be decided like this. I will discuss with sister Yuzhu again to discuss the day's day, saying that the weather is not hot yet, so we can arrange this marriage as soon as possible."

Seeing Jiang Jingyuan's silence, Chen Xiuxiu didn't take it seriously. Parents are not in charge of all marriages, so there's no need for Jiang Jingyuan to worry about it.

Xu Shuizhou's face was already red enough to bleed at this moment, and he took a sneaky look at Jiang Jingyuan from the corner of his eye, seeing Jiang Jingyuan staring at him, he hurriedly looked away.

He Yuzhu also smiled softly, "As for us Zhou, don't worry, the dowry will not treat him badly."

"Mother~" Xu Shuizhou tugged on Lahe Yuzhu's sleeve, telling her to stop talking.

"It's almost a family, and you're still so shy." He Yuzhu joked at his son indifferently, stood up, and said goodbye to Chen Xiuxiu, "Then it's settled, please trouble sister Xiu to see a better day, I'll take Ah Zhou back to embroider the wedding dress."

Jiang Jingyuan took two steps away, watched them enter the house, and then turned back to the house.

"Mother, where is grandma?" Jiang Jingyuan is most worried about Jiang Mu, after all, it's been so long, he doesn't even remember what Jiang Mu looks like, so he must have no feelings.

"It's okay, even if your grandma doesn't recognize you, my mother can still arrange the marriage for you." Chen Xiuxiu became angry.

Previously, due to the debts owed to her natal family, she was a little embarrassed to hold her head up. Now that Jiang Jingyuan has the ability, not only has he paid back all the debts, but also arranged such a good job for Chen Yuhong.

A few days ago, my sister-in-law came to see her again, and told her what difficulties she had.

If Jiang's mother doesn't recognize Jing Yuan this time, then at worst, she will go back to her natal family to borrow money.

Jiang Jingyuan frowned. Seeing that Chen Xiuxiu was so determined, he couldn't say anything. At worst, soldiers would come to block him, and water would come to cover him up. It was the right thing to find a way to make money first.

As soon as Xu Shuizhou came home, He Yuzhu took out a high-quality silk from the bottom of the press box, "This material was prepared for me when your father was around, but you were born before my mother put on the wedding dress. This material has been stranded."

"Mother?" Xu Shuizhou looked up in surprise. He had never heard He Yuzhu tell him the story of her and her father. He couldn't react when he heard such shocking news at this moment.

He Yuzhu caressed the red silk and said sadly, "Azhou, haven't you always been curious about mother's identity, mother will tell you today."

"Ah?" Xu Shuizhou was a little at a loss.

Indeed, He Yuzhu doesn't look like an ordinary woman no matter how she looks at it. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, even what she taught Xu Shuizhou is not ordinary.

Sometimes Xu Shuizhou even thought that if He Yuzhu went out of Jiangyu Village to go anywhere, he would be a peerless and magnificent person.

"Mother was originally the daughter of the former prime minister, but because your grandfather was involved in a case of sentencing the country, the whole family was imprisoned, and even the next of kin were implicated. Your grandfather died in prison to show his will, so that mother was not imprisoned." Pulled to beheaded, but mother's fate was not good, and among the people of the Jiaofang Secretary, when mother wanted to commit suicide, it was your father who almost spent all the family property to redeem mother."

He Yuzhu touched the silk and satin, and talked.

Xu Shuizhou just felt that his head couldn't react. He thought he was just an ordinary son of a businessman, so why did he become extraordinary.

"Mother and your father were only seven years old when they met, and your father was ten years older than your mother. At that time, your father wanted to bribe your grandfather with money, but your grandfather refused, but he still helped him a bit." Xiao Mang, I didn't expect that it was just a small good fortune, but it saved your mother's life ten years later."

"Mother doesn't regret marrying your father, but mother can't figure it out. Your father is a cautious person. Why did he die for no apparent reason after going to sea? Mother just wanted to find out, but she didn't expect to implicate your Uncle Jiang." gone."

He Yuzhu said that tears were pouring down here, if she hadn't insisted on investigating the cause of Xu Lang's death back then, she wouldn't have involved Jiang Yuanmao, and she wouldn't have contracted dysentery on the road.

Xu Shuizhou thoughtfully handed the silk cloth to He Yuzhu, "Mother, it's all over."

"Yeah, it's all over." He Yuzhu wiped away his tears, touched Xu Shuizhou's cheek, and said softly, "Your father can't be resurrected after death, so what's the use of mother investigating those things again, now mother tells you these things , I just hope that you and Jing Yuan will live a good life in the future, don't be like your mother, harm others and yourself."

"Well, I will." Xu Shuizhou nodded heavily, pretending he didn't hear about the prime minister and the killing of the nine clans.

"Ah Zhou, have you ever complained to your mother, obviously you are a smart child, but mother has to let you hide your clumsiness." He Yuzhu was afraid, afraid that there would be another murder, or that her husband would die like this again. Unexplainable things happen.

She only has one family member, Shui Zhou, if even Shui Zhou suffers from an unreasonable disaster...

"Ah Zhou, you are not allowed to say what mother said to you today, it rots in your stomach, including Jing Yuan, you can't tell him, and what mother taught you, don't reveal it in front of others unless it is absolutely necessary. , these will only bring you disaster, you know?"

He Yuzhu repeatedly warned Xu Shuizhou.

Xu Shuizhou nodded again and again, "I know mother, I'm just an ordinary fisherman, I don't know anything, the stupid kind."

What Xu Shuizhou said amused He Yuzhu, "My Azhou is not stupid, he is smart."

As news of Jiang Jingyuan and Xu Shuizhou's marriage spread, the eight wives in Jiangyu Village began to speak bitterly again, "Hey, have you heard that Jiang Jingyuan and Xu Shuizhou are getting married."

"No, this Xu Shuizhou seems to have a brain problem, just like Chen Xiuxiu's kind of cruel mother-in-law, there will be no good fruit for her to marry. Just watch, I'm afraid she will be bullied to death."

"That's right, we're waiting to see the play. Xu Shuizhou has done a lot of work for her, Chen Xiuxiu. She gets up to work every day before dawn, and Chen Xiuxiu doesn't even give her a good face. It's okay after she gets married."

The author has something to say: Thank you all for your support. I also saw the addition, but I am not in good health recently, and I am busy with getting married. I really can’t write it. I will add it to you when I have time. more.
