Chapter 54 Jiang Huai's Thoughts
Jiang Huai has the typical feudal patriarchal thinking. In their mindset, I can be unkind but you cannot be unfilial.
The ruler is the guide for his subjects.
The husband is the guide of the wife.
The father is the guide for the son.
Even if they themselves are not very loyal to the emperor and patriotic, they will secretly curse others for bullying others by taking advantage of their power, but they will implement the terms that are beneficial to themselves very thoroughly.
It has the meaning that above me, all beings are equal, and below me, there are clear classes.
Jiang Huai knew that he was not good to his daughter and had no feelings for her, but he inexplicably had a sense of confidence as a father.
It may also be that Jiang Xinyu's flattering behavior of sending him birthday gifts every year despite being punished many times in the past gave him this illusion.
Lord Jiang believed that no matter how wrong he was, he was still his father, and there were no parents in the world who were not wrong.
Now that the daughter has made progress, she should do everything she can to coax her son-in-law to give him a promotion and wealth. Only in this way can she gain the recognition and praise of her father.
If Jiang Xinyu was still the little girl who longed for her father's approval, she might have let him succeed.
Unfortunately, Miss Jiang has changed her mind now. She believes that you reap what you sow. If you respect me one inch, I will respect you ten feet.
Don't even think about repaying evil with kindness. If she had any mercy on Jiang Huai, she would be doing a disservice to her original self and her murdered mother.
Since she was reborn into this body, Jiang Xinyu has recalled her original past bit by bit. She could even remember that a woman was disrespectful to her one day, but she couldn't remember any kindness her biological father had shown her.
If you occupy someone else's body, you will be bound by their karma.
Apart from living a good life, the only thing Jiang Xinyu cares about is to avenge her grievances and give justice to the original owners.
Unfortunately, Jiang Huai's cognition made him completely unable to see that his eldest daughter was not smiling, and he was still complacent about being able to get close to the supervisor of the East Factory.
As for Liu being beaten and Xiao Yuan's cold attitude towards him, he didn't take it to heart at all.
Just because he ignored what was going on in the backyard didn't mean he knew nothing. He was well aware of the dirty dealings between Jiang Xinyu and the Liu mother and daughter, but it didn't bother him at all so he didn't bother to care.
Whether it's the jealousy among the women in the backyard or the tricks among the children, the ultimate goal is to gain his attention and favor.
He just needs to balance the relationship and maintain superficial peace when things go too far. In the end, he is the one who benefits.
And Xiao Yuan’s attitude is not a problem at all.
This governor has been working for the East Factory for more than ten years since he was 15 years old, and he has always been an unsympathetic and pure minister.
Not to mention ordinary officials, he was also cold and indifferent to several princes and had no enthusiasm for anyone. It was obvious that this was his nature.
Although Jiang Huai had never dealt with Xiao Yuan seriously, he had seen him many times, and the other party always looked dead.
A person's style of doing things is probably difficult to change, and Jiang Huai didn't think that Xiao Yuan would greet his father-in-law with a smile like other aunts just because she liked his daughter.
It's good like this now. As long as it can bring benefits to him, attitude doesn't matter at all.
Jiang Huai was blindly confident that his daughter's marriage to Xiao Yuan would bring prosperity to the Jiang family, but Liu and Jiang Wanqiu saw things more clearly than he did.
The more kindly Jiang Xinyu smiled, the more frightened they both felt. They always felt that the other party was planning something big.
But Jiang Huai just couldn't understand his beloved concubine and daughter. He kept scolding them and urging them to sit down.
Liu was filled with resentment but could do nothing about it. She just wanted to deal with Jiang Xinyu and the others first and then go back and talk to her husband in detail.
It would be best to arrange a marriage in late autumn as soon as possible and then send Quan'er to his uncle's house. She always felt that Jiang Xinyu was holding back.
At this time, the food had been placed on the table. Jiang Huai let Xiao Yuan sit at the main seat and he sat next to him. Xiao Yuan sat next to Jiang Xinyu on the other side.
Naturally, Liu had to sit next to Jiang Huai. She was afraid that Jiang Xinyu would do something bad to his youngest son, so she held her son next to her and let Jiang Wanqiu sit over.
As a result, as soon as he sat down, Xiao Yuan suddenly snorted, "The rules of my father-in-law's family really opened my eyes. When did the concubine have a place at the family banquet?
As the Minister of Rites, he doesn't even understand the basic hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children. If this gets out, I'm afraid someone will criticize Lord Jiang for being unworthy of his position."
Jiang Huai was startled when he heard this, and he scolded Liu for being so rude and told her to get up and serve the food.
Liu stood up with a sullen face. She cursed Xiao Yuan and Jiang Xinyu in her heart and felt deeply dissatisfied with her beloved Jiang Lang.
She has been married to him for so many years, raising children and taking care of the housework, and she has worked hard even if she has no credit. Can't he take care of himself a little?
Liu gritted her teeth secretly, and a hint of viciousness flashed in her eyes.
Jiang Xinyu, this little bastard, is really a bastard who has no mother to teach and is not worthy of being in a public place. He is so impatient to show off his power as soon as he gains power.
Don't be too proud of anything; be careful as excessive joy may turn into sorrow.
Jiang Wanqiu's face was also pale at this time. She had never thought that there would be such an embarrassing situation.
Jiang Huai apologized to Xiao Yuan with a flattering look on his face: "Please calm down, my Lord. I am sorry for my poor discipline and made you laugh."
Xiao Yuan just looked at this family coldly, feeling distressed when he thought about the pasts of those ladies he had found out.
Her vain father, her early dead mother, her vicious concubine and she is helpless.
It's not easy for his little Taotie to develop a cheerful personality in such an environment.
Jiang Xinyu smiled slightly, feeling secretly happy. She gently pushed Xiao Yuan and motioned him to step down from the stage.
What's the point of beating someone to death with a stick? It hurts only when you cut your flesh with a blunt knife.
The original owner's reputation and life were worn away by repeated hopes and disappointments. This is just the beginning. She still wants to gain back the original owner's reputation by stepping on this family.
Liu's ability to endure was truly remarkable. Even though she was humiliated in such a way, she never left the table in anger. Instead, she stood up with her chopsticks in her hand and waited to serve everyone at the table, young and old.
Seeing his young lady's gesture, Xiao Yuan also raised his glass and toasted to Jiang Huai. The atmosphere at the banquet finally eased a little.
Jiang Huai also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Yu'er still cared about this home and his father.
As for Mrs. Liu, let her bear with it for now. It was she who offended Yu'er in the past.
Even if it's for the future of Song'er and Quan'er, as a mother, she should endure some grievances.
The Jiang family spent a huge amount of money on this return banquet. There were many delicacies from land and sea on the table, far exceeding their previous economic level.
However, except Jiang Xinyu, no one at the table was interested in eating.
Jiang Xinyu didn't eat as much as she did in the Governor's Mansion. She only picked out expensive food and started looking for trouble after she was about 80% full.
Hit the snake at 7 inches.
She specifically said today that she wanted to see her little brother Jiang Quan and asked someone to come over just to poke Liu's lungs, but she didn't expect that this naughty kid would be well behaved today.
How can I do that?
This little thing is young but very cunning. If Jiang Wanqiu is considered a hypocritical gentleman with a sweet appearance but a cruel heart, then this little thing is a vicious and cruel villain.
Never underestimate the viciousness of a child, because they are fearless because of their ignorance.
If the kid was just being naughty, Jiang Xinyu wouldn't bother with him, but she couldn't forgive Jiang Quan's viciousness.
