Chapter 201 The Choice of Jiang Family Women
After hearing Chu Yian's words, many women who were sobbing suddenly became quiet.
They all looked at Chu Yian with different expressions.
Chu Yian looks very gentle. Although her face is childish, one can feel a strong kindness from her.
Perhaps this lady from a wealthy family was not just doing it on a whim, but really wanted to do something for them.
But when have these people in high positions ever considered their situation?
Everyone is only concerned with whether they are having a good time.
This move helped them, but Chu Yian himself would also suffer a lot of criticism. Is there really such a person in this world who only considers others without considering his own situation?
After all, this is someone else's family affair, and outsiders can't say anything even if they don't like it.
But not only did she say it, she actually wanted to get involved...
For a moment, everyone was unsure what Chu Yian was thinking and what his purpose was.
Although she said she was willing to respect their choices, who knows if she would feel bad in her heart that they didn't follow the path she chose?
And if she really cared about them, she shouldn't have targeted the Jiang family from the beginning.
Jiang Zhijie was paralyzed, but the Jiang family was going to be exiled to such a faraway place, and they had to be taken along with them...
Chu Yian observed everyone's expressions calmly. Seeing that many people looked conflicted, she knew that not everyone was willing to leave the Jiang family.
The reason why he was so humble and didn't scold her for meddling in other people's business right away was probably because he was afraid of angering her and making the Jiang family's situation even more difficult.
Chu Yian sighed silently in his heart.
No matter how many faults their husband's family has or how hard their lives are in their husband's family, many of them are unwilling to leave their husband's family.
Regardless of right or wrong, they know very well that after leaving, they will not only be subjected to a lot of accusations and abuse, but also be harassed for no reason by those who dislike them.
Although Chu Yian's original intention was good, they have to live their own lives and they must consider themselves more carefully.
After three seconds of contemplation, Chu Yian broke the silence: "You can tell me whatever you think. If anyone doesn't want to leave, I will write a letter to inform Mrs. Jiang. It's not a big deal."
So there is no need to struggle so much.
Seeing that Chu Yian really didn't seem to mind, after a while someone whispered: "Young Madam, we know you are doing this for our own good, we are very grateful to you."
"But, I, I..."
The woman who was speaking bit her lip, not sure how to start.
Chu Yian smiled at her, his tone somewhat comforting: "It's okay, I understand. Have you made a decision?"
When the woman met Chu Yian's gentle eyes, she felt her heart beating faster.
She quickly lowered her head and whispered, "Well, thank you, Madam Sanshao, for your kindness, but I don't know where to go after leaving the Jiang family."
"I know you will protect us, but my parents... will force me to death. Even if it's not them, there will be others."
"It's okay in the Jiang family. If I leave the Jiang family and become single, they will still think of marrying me off to someone else."
"Instead of that, I might as well follow the Jiang family. Maybe they'll be willing to treat me better because I'm following them."
"Besides, Jiang...he's paralyzed now. He won't be able to beat me anymore. Life won't be any harder than before."
"I'm sorry, Madam San Shao..."
Chu Yian nodded slightly to show her understanding. What she said was true. This world always puts all kinds of shackles on women.
After finally escaping from the previous den of wolves, the parents were not happy for their daughter, but instead wanted to find another home for her to make more money.
If you are unwilling to follow their wishes, you will be charged with various crimes.
You are unfilial and bring shame to the family. It is difficult for other women in the family to marry because of you...
Seeing that the girl didn't get to the point, someone quickly added, "Madam Third Young Master, that's not what she meant. We're very grateful for your help, but this isn't something that can be resolved in one go. It will cause you endless trouble in the future."
"We are already like this. The Third Young Master's wife is kind-hearted, and we don't want her to be in trouble as well."
The others nodded in agreement.
No matter what you think in your heart, this statement is always easier to accept.
Chu Yian frowned slightly, knowing what they meant, but these words made it difficult for the women who wanted to save themselves to speak.
If you open your mouth to say this, it will make the other person look like an ungrateful person.
Her tone became a little more serious: "Don't worry about my affairs. Solving your problems is not a big deal for me."
"If I really have to think about it, I might as well think about the fact that there are many people in Shengjing right now who are waiting to see me make a fool of myself."
If someone interferes in other people's family affairs and ends up getting no thanks, with no one buying into her decision, that would be truly laughable.
Chu Yian didn't care what others said about her, since they couldn't say it in front of her anyway.
The Qin family is currently making great use of her, and under normal circumstances, there wouldn't be any blind people who would come to her and talk behind her back.
Unless you get kicked in the head by a donkey.
After hearing Chu Yian's words, many people were indeed very confused.
The next second, a slightly older woman walked up to Chu Yian, wiped her eyes and said, "Madam San Shao, can you, can you help us?"
Chu Yian looked at her, his eyes curved: "Of course..."
Before she could finish her words, the woman interrupted her hurriedly: "I, I am not Jiang Zhijie's person, I am Jiang Zhijie's father's aunt. I heard that you are willing to help them, so I came to your door and asked you to help me..."
She knelt down with a plop and choked out her tears, saying, "I am willing to listen to the Third Young Master's wife and follow all your arrangements. I only ask that you let me stay in Shengjing."
"I'm already this old, and my mother is almost sixty this year. If I leave Beijing, there will be no one to take care of her until her death..."
Chu Yian frowned slightly, helped the woman up, but did not respond to her words immediately.
Jiang Zhijie was easy to deal with, after all, it was Mrs. Jiang who came to her personally to ask for help.
It's not too much to ask.
Moreover, Jiang Zhijie's wives and concubines were indeed persecuted by him, but it was not easy for Jiang Zhijie's father to intervene.
No matter what, he is an official appointed by the court.
Seeing that Chu Yian remained silent, the woman obviously knew that her request was embarrassing.
But she really didn't know what to do, so she shamelessly asked Chu Yian for help.
Chu Yian thought for a while, looked at her and asked, "What's your name?"
The woman hurriedly said, "Young Madam, you can just call me Zhang."
Chu Yian shook his head slightly, his eyes swept across the faces of several older women in the crowd, and he had an idea in his mind.
I thought they were Jiang Zhijie's wives or concubines, but they turned out to be his father's.
She didn't remain silent for long before she said, "Let me think about this for a while. Whether it succeeds or not, I'll have someone send a letter to you later."
Zhang was obviously disappointed after hearing what Chu Yian said, but she didn't know what to say, so she could only step back.
I thought it was a simple matter, the only trouble was their livelihood.
But now it seems not.
Things were becoming a little confusing, and Chu Yian wanted to sort out his thoughts, so he simply asked someone to write down a list of those who were unwilling to leave.
After taking note, I took a quick look and found that there were quite a few people willing to follow the Jiang family, and there were only a few who were unwilling to leave.
When writing down their names, confusion and fear appeared on their faces, and they had no idea what their future would be like.
I don't know whether it is right or wrong to rashly hand over my life and property to this lady I met for the first time.
But following the Jiang family doesn't guarantee survival...
They were so confused that they didn't know whether the knife would fall or not.
Despite this, they were still willing to take this step, which made Chu Yian feel somewhat relieved.
But she did not blame the women who wanted to follow the Jiang family. After saying a few words to comfort them, she had them all sent out of the Duke's Mansion.
