Zhang's face didn't look good, and she looked a little tired. When the two of them greeted her, she just waved her hand, holding her forehead and forcing a smile, "Why are you two here at this hour?"
She thought that the two children knew about the marriage proposal from the Changyuan Marquis' Mansion and came to inquire about it. Girls from noble families should not behave like this, so she looked at Jiang Mingzhi and Wang Qiang with a bit of sternness in her eyes.
Jiang Mingzhi, who had lived for decades longer, naturally saw that her aunt had misunderstood. Thinking of her aunt's good intentions towards her, she thought for a moment and said, "Aunt, I have never had my biological mother to protect me since I was young, so I am always afraid of making a mistake. Therefore, I am always more cautious than others. Please don't be angry with my sister."
My aunt was stunned for a moment, and then she felt heartbroken.
She just showed a little displeasure, but the child could read her expression and quickly understand where she was wrong. She was not like her own daughter. Although Wang Zhaojun was sensible, she was the one who took care of everything. She was not as sensible as Xuanxuan. But it was this sensibility that made her feel even more distressed. Times shape people, and many truths are difficult to understand without suffering.
"Aunt knows you're a good child, but what happened in the past is over. From now on, you can be like your cousin in my place. You don't have to be so cautious. Sometimes making small mistakes is harmless."
Jiang Mingzhi nodded vigorously and smiled at Wang Qiang who was looking at him.
The two men explained their purpose to their aunt. When her aunt heard it, she not only did not think it was inappropriate, but she also agreed. "Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles means that you should gain more knowledge. Although you are not men, you may be able to go out and see more. I am also happy to see it."
After that, he instructed Du Ruo: "Go open my box and take out fifty taels of silver for my cousin. You are more prudent than your cousin. Now, your aunt invites you to play."
Jiang Mingzhi quickly forgot her previous nervousness because of her aunt's open-mindedness and cheerfulness. She liked Zhang very much and gladly accepted the silver.
Seeing that the two maids were still not leaving after finishing their conversation, Zhang sent Wang Qiang away and told Jiang Mingzhi about what Lord Zhou had said when he came to the house today.
"My aunt didn't agree, but she was a little hesitant. I originally wanted to find you a simple and clean family. Maybe it's not a noble family, but at least you can live a happy life there. But after thinking about it carefully, the Changyuan Marquis's Mansion is not bad either."
Jiang Mingzhi lowered his eyelids slightly, personally massaged his aunt's shoulders, and listened to her carefully.
Her aunt explained, "Look, the fact that the Changyuan Marquis's family is proposing marriage clearly means that Qin Shi has no say. As long as you don't make any mistakes and don't offend your father-in-law in the past, you'll be able to live your life naturally. The Crown Prince already has a legitimate eldest son, so if you marry him, you won't have to rush to have children, and your life will be much easier. However, I'm thinking that Qin Shi is your mother-in-law after all, and if she's unhappy, she might secretly make things difficult for you, which would be very painful for you."
Having said that, she took Jiang Mingzhi's hand, called her to her, and asked her seriously: "If it were you, would you be willing to marry him?"
Jiang Mingzhi hesitated for only a second, and then immediately shook his head like a rattle.
My aunt suddenly laughed, her face filled with relief.
"You are like this, and your aunt is relieved. I said this because I am afraid that you will feel regret when you think about it later. To tell you the truth, your aunt does not like this so-called uncle's mansion. My sister-in-law wants to marry, and of course she wants to marry someone she likes. As long as you are clear in your heart, your aunt will definitely not let you suffer any injustice in this matter!"
Was he testing her just now? Jiang Mingzhi laughed, feeling somewhat helpless.
