The old lady was actually... speechless.
Grandma Zhuang was also dumbfounded. She had lived for more than 40 years and this was the first time she heard someone say this about her husband.
Is this kid really okay?
Mother Jiang smiled and said, "My daughter Yue'er is just like this. The Marquis really likes her straightforwardness. Aunt Zhuang will be fine after seeing her more often."
"It's really the imperial capital. It's different from our little place. In our place, wives are all obedient and docile and serve their husbands. How can there be such a thing? It really opens my eyes."
Huahua: [She only gave birth to one son, but her son married three women before. One was because she was beautiful, but her son was determined to get her. So the old woman set up a trap, drugged her, ruined her reputation, and forced her to marry him.]
Unfortunately, after she married, her son got fed up with her. The two of them constantly called her a slut and said she married out of her status. She even committed suicide from depression before she was seventeen. They also accused her of being hypocritical and only stopped her from asking her in-laws to pay fifty taels of silver.
[The second was the village chief's youngest daughter, a beautiful girl, who despised others for being uninteresting. After three years of marriage without a child, she used this as a reason to divorce him.]
Jiang Shuyue asked curiously, "I've heard that many village chiefs are quite powerful. Aren't they afraid of offending others?"
Huahua: [That's all your father's fault. Your father is a high-ranking official. How could the village chief dare to offend him? I'll just have to swallow my anger. Now the third one is a bit more interesting. She's a prostitute, so she can control men.]
[She also introduced her two sisters to her son, and two more to her father-in-law. Grandma Zhuang's husband didn't come along this time, thinking he could have some fun with her since the old lady was away.]
[I just found out that both of her husband's mistresses are pregnant for three months, and her son knows about it.]
Jiang Shuyue looked at her with sympathy: [Ah...her son knew about it and didn't stop it?]
Huahua: [I won't stop him. Her son thinks having two more siblings is a good thing. As the legitimate wife, his mother should learn to be magnanimous.]
Tsk tsk tsk, what a pitiful old woman.
However, after she was over 40 and had two more children, they all called her mother.
This kind of painless delivery seems to be pretty good.
Huahua: [Her son and husband are both eccentric. Of those four women, two are pregnant with her son, and two are pregnant with her husband's. However, they are all cross-pregnant, so it's hard to tell who is pregnant with the old child and who is pregnant with the child.]
So the father and son decided that no matter who gave birth to the child, the child would be registered under his son's name and he would call him grandpa. This would also let those who had previously criticized her son for being incompetent see for themselves whether the men of the Wang family were really capable!
Jiang Mu almost spit out a mouthful of tea.
So...explosive?
Jiang Shuyue laughed in her heart: "Goo goo goo, father and son, each one playing with flowers more than the other, so blooming! Congratulations to Lao Zhuang, he suddenly has four more grandchildren!"
Huahua: [Lao Zhuang always thought the two he kept outside were his son's concubines. He was afraid that the three people at home would be jealous, so he resorted to this desperate measure. When the child is about to be born, he will take them back, and then it will be legitimate.]
[This time I came to your house, not only to ask for money, but also to find her son a government position. After all, there are more people to feed now, and his job in the government office is not enough.]
[Host, guess how she wants your family to become an official?]
Historically, seeking an official position has always involved taking imperial examinations, being recommended, or donating money.
The Great Zhou strictly prohibits the donation or sale of official positions, so there are only the first two options.
But judging from the appearance of Laozi and Zhuangzi, she couldn't teach anyone to be cultured.
If she wanted to resort to force, she would have come here a long time ago and wouldn't have to wait until now.
A bold idea slowly emerged in her mind.
Jiang Shuyue: [She...wouldn't be planning on cheating on the test, would she?]
Huahua fired a salute in her heart: [Right! That’s cheating!]
[Isn't your father the examiner this time? They're planning to steal the exam questions, have a few Hanlin Academy students write them, and then replace them after they've graded the papers. This strategy was just hatched yesterday, and your scumbag father is already considering it. I think they're probably going to execute it.]
Jiang's mother was alarmed.
She met that Wang Laosi this morning. He looked pretty good, but his slick look made her uncomfortable.
I originally thought he was just trying to get something for free, but I didn't expect him to be so mean that he even thought of cheating in the Spring Examination.
Jiang An is getting worse day by day, and Jiang's mother feels strange that the emperor suddenly gave him such an important task.
Daddy also sent someone to tell her these days that Jiang An might be doomed, and asked her to make preparations as soon as possible.
But she didn't expect that what Jiang An was going to do was so big.
If King Huai and Marquis Zhennan had done it, they might have been reprimanded and demoted, but if Jiang An had done it, he would have been exiled if not killed.
What about her son?
Jiang Chen is already married, so it’s not so difficult to deal with.
But what about the eldest son?
Mother Jiang felt very anxious and upset, and her eyes became sharp when she looked at Aunt Zhuang.
Jiang Shuyue: [It seems I need to settle things between my mother and my scumbag father as soon as possible, otherwise I'll be implicated and cause trouble again.]
Huahua: [Yes, he bought his status as a scholar, and he's just sitting there unused in the government office, specifically in charge of accounting. Your father wants to assign him to the Ministry of Revenue.]
Jiang Shuyue: [Is the money too little and you want more? Then help him out. Then you can expose the matter. It would be best if the emperor is furious and banishes your scumbag father to the wilderness to feed mosquitoes!]
Mother Jiang couldn't help but smile bitterly when she saw Jiang Shuyue sharpening her knife to kill pigs and sheep.
This kid was also ruthless when it came to bullying his own father. This was quite similar to Jiang An...
