Chapter 140 Feeling sorry for each other

Xie Jiaojiao raised her head and looked at Old Master Jiang with a trace of annoyance on her face. It was undeniable that what Old Master Jiang said just now was very right. She always looked at Jiang Weinan from her perspective. She never thought that Jiang Weinan’s starting point was different from hers. A person who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth actually didn’t need to know these things!

I saw Old Master Jiang looking at her with a smile on his face.

"You are a very good girl, and Weinan is also a good boy. I think your marriage is a great one!"

"Don't you have any prejudices against your own party?"

Old Master Jiang nodded: "How could there not be? In my heart, I definitely hope that he can marry the daughter of a wealthy family, but..."

"He just wants to marry you, and I can't bear to separate you, so I can only let him do it. After all, you are a good girl. If you were not, I would definitely not agree to this marriage. In my opinion, it is not easy for you, a girl, to live with a widowed mother and young brother. It is not easy for Weinan to grow up like this. Only when two people who have not had a good life are together can they know how to care for each other."

Jiang Weinan has a hard time? Xie Jiaojiao didn't see it.

However, what Mr. Jiang said left Xie Jiaojiao speechless.

Mr. Jiang looked at Sun Ruhua at this time and said, "Mother-in-law, I will have someone send the betrothal gifts tomorrow, and then we can go."

Sun Ruhua was stunned: "Hasn't the betrothal gift been paid?"

Old Master Jiang waved his hand, his face full of disdain: "What kind of betrothal gifts can that bastard Jiang Huaian give? Since it's Weinan's marriage, I'm the one who makes the decision. I will definitely not let your daughter down. If your daughter has face, it means that my Weinan values ​​her."

"This……"

Sun Ruhua looked at Xie Jiaojiao.

Xie Jiaojiao didn't say anything.

Sun Ruhua could only nod: "Well, okay!"

Old Master Jiang smiled.

Pulling over the middle-aged man standing next to him, he said, "This is your second uncle, Li Hean. You have seen his daughter Li Yaner."

Li Hean smiled awkwardly: "Yan'er grew up with Weinan since she was a child, so she is sometimes unrestrained. Please don't blame me, niece-in-law."

Xie Jiaojiao shook her head and bowed to Li Hean, saying, "Xie Jiaojiao greets my second uncle!"

Then Old Master Jiang pulled over the young man next to him and said to Xie Jiaojiao, "This is your uncle's son, Jiang Ruonan, who is two years younger than Weinan."

Jiang Ruonan bowed to Xie Jiaojiao: "Hello, sister-in-law!"

Xie Jiaojiao felt very embarrassed when being called sister-in-law.

Xie Jiaojiao said awkwardly: "Hello!"

Old Master Jiang was obviously very happy. He smiled at Sun Ruhua and said, "It's rare that Weinan likes your daughter. When the time comes, this wedding will definitely be a big event in our town. It will definitely not bring shame to our two families."

Sun Ruhua finally relaxed at this time: "Everything is up to you, my dear relatives!"

……

After seeing off Old Master Jiang, Sun Ruhua let out a sigh of relief: "Jiaojiao, why didn't I understand what you meant?"

Only then did Xie Jiaojiao explain everything to Sun Ruhua.

Sun Ruhua listened and said, "I was wondering why you said last time that the wedding would not be held in the county. I thought the Jiang family did not accept our identities! In this case, the Jiang family's young master's child is also pitiful. After you get married, mother will definitely treat him well."

Xie Jiaojiao: ...It sounds like Jiang Weinan is marrying into the family!

At this point, Sun Ruhua asked, "There is another thing. Why is Jiang Weinan's second uncle's surname Li? And why is his cousin's surname Jiang?"

Xie Jiaojiao only said that it seemed that this second uncle was the godson adopted by his grandfather, and Jiang Weinan did not say anything more.

The next morning, the Jiang family sent a lot of betrothal gifts!

The scene was much bigger than the previous time when the matchmaker came. There were more than twenty loads of betrothal gifts, which made the villagers smack their lips!

There are silk, horses, gold, silver, and silver basins...

The villagers looked on with envy!

The one who came to propose marriage was Li Hean.

Li He'an gave the betrothal gift letter to Xie Jiaojiao, and called two more people to come in front of Xie Jiaojiao.

"The two of them are responsible for the daily life and etiquette of my niece-in-law."

"Hi, young lady!"

Xie Jiaojiao quickly waved her hand and said no.

Li Hean said with a smile: "I know my niece-in-law is a woman who doesn't care about etiquette, but this is the first and only time in her life that she will get married, so naturally the better! After the marriage, if you don't need her anymore, you can send her away at any time!"

After Li He'an finished speaking, he left a yard full of things and left!

There were a lot of people gathered outside the house, and they were amazed at the things in Xie Jiaojiao's house!

Be nice!

How much silver are these things worth!

Sun Ruhua almost collapsed to the ground, and then she felt a little dizzy...

Xie Jiaojiao quickly supported her.

Sun Ruhua said with a sad face: "So many betrothal gifts! How can mother prepare a dowry for you?"

Xie Jiaojiao: ...

Two maids stood aside and looked at Xie Jiaojiao: "Young Madam, what should we do?"

Xie Jiaojiao felt a headache looking at the two of them. Just at this time, the village chief came over and asked Xie Jiaojiao to go to the town with him to transfer the ownership.

Xie Jiaojiao threw the matter to Sun Ruhua and left.

To be honest, the village chief was very envious when he saw so many betrothal gifts in the yard. He really hated himself for not having a daughter. If he had a daughter who could have a good life like Xie Jiaojiao, then why would he still be the village chief!

When they arrived in the town, the village chief took Xie Jiaojiao to the head of the village to get their fingerprints. Xie also had to take the land deed to the county to get it stamped, and then she could pick it up in two days.

Xie Jiaojiao gave the village chief one or two taels of silver as a thank you for his help over the past few days.

Chen Shouren didn't refuse and just put it in his arms.

Xie Jiaojiao asked Uncle Li to send the village chief back first, and she went to Qingfeng Tower to see if Jiang Weinan was there. Unexpectedly, there were not many guests in Qingfeng Tower, but the kitchen was very busy.

When the waiter saw her, he immediately came over to her in a flattering manner: "Thank you, Miss."

"Why are there so few customers today?"

The waiter smiled and said, "Look, you and the young master are getting married in two days, and the old man asked us to prepare more ingredients. We will have a buffet in the town, so we haven't entertained the guests yet."

what?

"A buffet?"

The waiter nodded: "The shopkeeper has been busy these past two days, collecting ingredients everywhere, I'm afraid there won't be enough by then!"

This……

"Where's Jiang Weinan?"

"The young master hasn't come in the past few days? How about I go there for Miss Xie?"

Xie Jiaojiao nodded: "Trouble!"

The waiter waved his hand and ran out.

Not long after, Jiang Weinan didn't come, but Lai Fu came instead.

Xie Jiaojiao looked behind him.

"Thank you, Miss. The Master didn't come!"

"Why?"

"Miss Xie, you don't know that there is a custom in the old master's place that men and women cannot see each other three days before getting married. Today happens to be the first day, and the young master will not come."

Is there still such a custom?

Then, Lai Fu shouted loudly: "The young master said that if you miss him, you can take a look at the handkerchief and jade pendant he gave you..."

Xie Jiaojiao's face looks almost cooked.

The waiter next to him pursed his lips and didn't dare to laugh.

Several people came from the kitchen.

He smiled and said, "I thought there was a quarrel outside! It turns out that Miss Xie is here!"

Xie Jiaojiao wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into!

Lai Fu didn't finish yet: "Oh, the young master also asked me to bring a self-portrait to you! He was afraid that you missed him too much!"

Then he handed over a small portrait!
