Chapter 73: The Power of Mouth
Jiang Xinyu's visit to her parents' home changed many people's minds, including Jiang Wanqiu, who was still obsessed with Zhao Chengye.
Jiang Wanqiu thought a lot these days, and finally opened his box and cut up the things Zhao Chengye gave him one by one.
Jiang Xinyu could easily give away the Imperial College admission card that her father had been trying so hard to get. This disparity made her jealous to the point of going crazy.
In the past, she thought that being Zhao Chengye's second wife was the best marriage. After all, with her status and family background, it was the highest level she could climb.
She only wanted to be a respected lady of a noble family and never considered entering the palace or becoming a concubine.
But Jiang Xinyu's experience gave her new inspiration. As long as she could get what she wanted, some unconventional means were acceptable.
Jiang Xinyu didn't know that her showing off had only deepened Jiang Wanqiu's desire to curry favor with the powerful, so she simply left the mother and daughter aside to study the fabric with her aunt.
Jiangnan has always been a major silk-weaving province, and Mrs. Wang's family was a royal merchant family. Although she was a merchant's wife, she knew all the silk fabrics that were offered as tribute.
On the contrary, Jiang Xinyu was confused. She looked totally bewildered when she heard her aunt explaining what Tianqingsha and Doroni were.
Productivity was indeed low in ancient times, but the high degree of centralization made the society even more extravagant and lustful.
Especially the things used by the royal family, they are all carefully selected by the nine clans, which cannot be compared with those of modern quality inspection departments.
Mrs. Wang was also a mischievous person. The more jealous Liu and her daughter became, the more excited she became.
Jiang Xinyu is also good at making trouble. One moment she says this gauze is suitable for pasting windows, and the next moment she says that that gauze is suitable for making window curtains.
Seeing these fine materials, which she treasured so much as a handkerchief, being wasted like this, Liu felt so heartbroken that she wished she could take all these fine things home.
Jiang Wanqiu also felt a pain in her heart. Even though she knew that this bitch was showing off on purpose, she still couldn't help but feel jealous.
The mother and daughter waited and waited for September to come back. Their eyes lit up when they saw the business cards in each other's hands.
Today, her aunt had some time to come and chat with her. Jiang Xinyu didn't want these two to be a nuisance here all the time, so she waved her hand and let Jiuyue pass the business card over without even looking at them.
"Okay, get the food and go back quickly. I don't provide any meals here. They are all delicacies from land and sea. I'm afraid you won't be able to digest them.
Oh, yes.
Since my sister doesn't want to marry into the Ningguo Mansion and eat coarse food, Madam Liu, you should give her more good food.
I'm afraid she'll have diarrhea after being so thin for so long when she goes to other people's houses as a guest."
The Liu mother and daughter didn't expect Jiang Xinyu to become so vulgar. They were so angry that their faces turned red and they kept saying "you you you" for a long time, not knowing what to say.
Mrs. Wang was also disgusted and could not help but hit her niece to teach her a lesson.
Jiang Wanqiu couldn't stand it any longer. He felt relieved after getting the name card. He glared at Jiang Xinyu and said sarcastically,
"My sister is really becoming more and more careless. She has no intention of saving face at all.
You don't have to worry about your sister's future. The important thing is to live your own life well.
There has never been a woman in our Jiang family who has cheated on her husband. Even though my brother-in-law is a little special, you have to remember the family traditions of the Jiang family.
Don’t do anything that would bring disgrace upon the family and end up in a pig cage.”
Jiang Xinyu chuckled when she heard this.
"Look at the logic you're talking about. Do you think your intestines are connected to your brain?
From what you said, if a woman's husband can't satisfy her sexual needs, she will definitely cheat, right?
Why are you reminding me?
According to the degree of relationship, you should also remind your brother Chengye.
On their wedding night, Li Mingyue gave him a poisonous drug, and Doctor Yu personally diagnosed that he could not have sex within a year, otherwise he would be completely useless.
You have to make sure he keeps an eye on his wife and doesn't cheat on him.
By the way, the most important thing is to take good care of your health.
The reason why our Xiao Yuan is not good is that he has been clean since childhood and has no family affairs. It would be a joke if he, who has family affairs, is not good either.
If he were younger, he might be able to get a job in the palace, but at his age, it's probably not possible.
Also, sister, don't expect too much about this bed thing.
Nowadays, men have three wives, four concubines, and countless maids. Even if you marry a healthy man, you may not be able to have sex with him many times in a month.
Especially after the novelty of three to five years has worn off, with your looks, it’s hard to say whether your brother-in-law will still enter your room.
Those who have never tasted meat can still resist it, but if you wait until you start eating, you will be a widow...
Tsk tsk, sister was worried that you couldn't stand the loneliness and were locked in a pig cage.
Also, don't mention your family tradition in front of outsiders. Even if you don't feel ashamed, I do.
Your father dotes on his concubine and lives off his wife, and your aunt got pregnant before marriage and had an affair with a married man.
You are even better than your teacher and are flirting with your sister's fiancé.
You are telling me about family traditions, do you want to make me laugh to death so that you can inherit my dowry?
Jiang Xinyu really dares to say anything. After a burst of spraying, the whole yard became quiet.
No matter how cunning Jiang Wanqiu was, she was still an unmarried girl. She had never heard such vicious words.
At this time, he was so angry that his chest heaved and his face turned red. He glared with his eyes but couldn't utter a word.
Not to mention Jiang Wanqiu, even Liu, a woman who had been married for many years, was so embarrassed that she couldn't say a word.
Mrs. Wang's face turned red, and the handkerchief in her hand was almost torn to pieces. She was just waiting for the mother and daughter to get out of here so that she could teach her niece a lesson for her outspokenness.
July and September, who were serving in the yard, wanted to dig into the ground. Is this something they can listen to?
I beg for a pair of ears that have not heard these words.
July is especially devastating.
She is also responsible for conveying the lady's words and deeds to the governor. How should she say this?
My Lord Governor, please don't come back today. Tell Xiaodouzi that she will do it after gritting her teeth.
How could she dare to tell the governor in person whether she had any family affairs or not?
The Governor will beat her to death, he will.
Jiang Wanqiu is also a scoundrel. He knows he can't win against the other person but still insists on talking back.
Now, the mother and daughter, who were almost angry to the point of bursting blood vessels, were driven out in disgrace.
But Jiang Xinyu, who had won a great victory, was not in a good situation. She just made a "yeah" gesture to herself and turned around when she was startled by Mrs. Wang.
This time there were no outsiders around, and Mrs. Wang opened fire like a machine gun.
From women's virtues and women's words to regarding husband as heaven.
From "You shouldn't be spoiled and become arrogant" to "How to get along with your husband."
Jiang Xinyu felt like a monkey put under the tight hoop by Tang Monk, and he became visibly listless.
But she would not refute her aunt. When she was really annoyed by her aunt's scolding, she would dive into her aunt's arms and act coquettishly and beg for forgiveness.
She really didn't like these feudal dregs, but Mrs. Wang's eyes were so warm when she preached to her, and she looked at her with full of heartache and worry.
My aunt was afraid that she would be ostracized because she was incompatible with the secular world, and that she would be harmed because she did not abide by secular rules.
At this moment Jiang Xinyu suddenly understood why some ladies did not agree with women's virtues and female precepts when they were young, but taught their daughters in this way.
It’s not that they accept these rules, but they know that resistance is too dangerous and they don’t want their children to get hurt.
It had been some time since she came into this world, and the only family love she felt came from Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang was just her aunt, but she loved her like her own daughter.
Feelings are mutual.
Regardless of whether it was for the original owner's karma or for the love she had received these days, Jiang Xinyu didn't want to make Mrs. Wang angry.
╮(︶﹏︶)╭Give me two more pots of strong tea and I can continue listening.
September: Let’s wait until my aunt leaves before discussing the matter of the governor being angry.
This fighting ability is too strong. She is afraid that if the lady is scolded again, she will not live long enough to see the governor return. =_=
