Chapter 935: Opposing the General
“Isn’t that right, old lady? Even an old woman like me has heard of it before. The kid from the Chen family was only joking with you, and yet she was protected by your family’s Wenyi. He’s still lying in the hospital right now. I think that Wenyi is probably embarrassed. They’re also afraid that you guys won’t agree, so they’ve been hiding it from you.”
The person who said this was the old lady of the Kong family, who was sitting at the same table as them. The old lady had long disliked the Jiang family who had harmed her daughter for the rest of her life. Helping the Xie family now was the same as helping herself. As long as the old lady was not feeling well, she would be fine.
As expected, the expression of the old lady of the Jiang family changed immediately after she said this. If that was the case, did everyone really know about this Wenyi’s matter? This would not be of any benefit to him in the future. Even if he was not with Xie Di, it would be difficult for him to find a wife. D*mn it, where did this wretched girl come from? She actually dared to cause trouble here.
Jiang Wenyi was not stupid. He had already heard these words when he was standing at the side. Although he knew what his grandmother meant, he did not object to it, but he couldn’t be rejected in front of others and not say anything.
“I’m afraid this is a misunderstanding. I didn’t…”
“Wenyi, since she’s your friend, then sit down with your friend. It’s not appropriate to stand there all the time.”
Qiu Shaowei suddenly interrupted. Even Jiang Haoting didn’t expect that Qiu Shaowei’s words would make Jiang Wenyi recognize this woman?
What did Qiu Shaowei want to do?
Old Madam Jiang and Jiang Haoting turned to look at Qiu Shaowei at the same time. Qiu Shaowei didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. If they wanted to see, then they should watch. If they really wanted to blame her, she could say that she didn’t want to make it worse. She was doing it for the sake of Wenyi, wasn’t she?
Perhaps Qiu Shaowei was too calm, but the two of them were suspicious of Qiu Shaowei’s intentions. At this moment, they didn’t know what to say. They even thought about it. If this matter was made known to everyone, it would be impossible to mention the marriage between the two families, or it would be impossible to distance themselves from the relationship.
It was just a woman. At worst, they could just say that hers and Wenyi’s relationship was not going well and that their personalities were not compatible. After all, it was not a big deal for these young people to fall in love a few more times, especially since Wenyi was a boy.
In the end, it was just that his reputation was a little bad now. Who knew who would know who in two years? Moreover, Wenyi might have to go further now. When the time came to choose a partner, they might not even take a fancy to this Xie Di.
Thinking of this, Old Madam Jiang no longer hesitated. Instead, she went along with Qiu Shaowei’s words and said,”Children nowadays, oh, pursue a free love. They are not like us back then. However, we have to respond to the country’s call. Our children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Children will have their own paths. Let them talk about it. Anyway, our family’s Wenyi is still young and not yet at the age of marriage. There’s no rush, there’s no rush. Don’t you agree, Elder Brother?”
“Yes, yes, yes. Elder Sister is right. There’s no rush, there’s no rush. With such an outstanding Wenyi, there’s still a long way to go.”
Old Master Xie’s smile was extremely sincere. This was because the marriage of his eldest granddaughter had been dissolved. At least for the next year, the old woman would not mention it again. When the time came, he would let Xie Di get married first. Naturally, everything would be fine.
The young man from the Kong family that they saw last night was also not bad. The current situation was really much better than the Jiang family’s boat. This eldest granddaughter was a talent. They absolutely could not waste her like this. The Xie family had fewer men and more daughters. However, if a daughter was well-educated, she would be more useful than a man.
Old Master Xie glanced at Xie Cenzhou and the two of them understood. They knew that this crisis was over. The Jiang family had set up such a big trap for them today. Fortunately, they had been prepared. Otherwise, they would have really offended the Jiang family. Although they were not afraid, they could not wait to offend the Jiang family now. Not only would they make everyone feel that they were heartless, but they would also make the Jiang family deal with them. This was not bad.
However, when she thought about the matter that the Jiang family might take action later, her heart that had just been set at ease instantly tensed up again.
Because of Qiu Shaowei’s words, even Jiang Shuixian had to give face. She only glared at Bai Wei and turned around to leave. She didn’t care about what Bai Wei wanted to do.
On the other hand, Xie Cenzhou glanced at his wife. She really listened to the Jiang family’s words. Ten thousand words from them wouldn’t even be worth a single word from Qiu Shaowei, the elder sister-in-law. The Jiang family really knew how to raise their daughter.
Jiang Wenyi was unwilling, but because his aunt had already spoken, and Grandma and Uncle did not say anything, he naturally could only let Bai Wei stay.
Thinking about it, he was really aggrieved to death, but what could he do?
He moved to the side. Bai Wei’s eyes were wide and wet as she watched Jiang Wenyi leave or stay. It was the Chen family disciples, who had been at odds with Jiang Wenyi, who said to Bai Wei,”Young lady, why don’t you sit down? Your Brother Jiang is really angry. Just coax him more. Aren’t girls always the best at coaxing people?”
After the Chen family’s disciple finished speaking, the second-generation officials beside him all laughed. However, no one cared about the affairs of the young people here. Jiang Wenyi, on the other hand, saw that the people at this table had a plan in mind. It seemed that they all looked down on her. It was no wonder… Aside from himself and the Chen family kid who had already entered the system, the others here were all idlers or still studying. They were not up to par. At least for now, there was no need to pay attention to them.
After the little farce ended, the banquet officially began. Shen Xiaoxiao and Huang Yueyan also began to gossip with the other women at the table. Since ancient times, it was not only women who liked to gossip, but also men who were curious.
Their table was almost the same table as the one they had bet on last time. Everyone was on good terms with each other and had some cooperation. When Huang Yueyan took the lead to leave just now, they all stood up to support them. Therefore, everyone could be considered to be on good terms with each other.
“I think this Jiang Wenyi might really have nothing to do with this Bai Wei. On the other hand, this little white flower might be quite scheming. Jiang Wenyi might have been set up by someone.”
“I think so too. These girls will use this little white flower personality. Sigh, men are stupid.”
Hearing the other two wives’ words, Huang Yueyan and Shen Xiaoxiao felt the same way. They also felt that Jiang Wenyi’s personality was more straightforward. This might have something to do with his many years in the army. Although he wasn’t as vicious as the Jiang family, he was still relatively upright. He probably wouldn’t do such things.
“Old Madam Jiang is so eager to promote her grandson. If she doesn’t want to, she should think of a way. But tonight is destined to be not peaceful. Do you know who I saw in the bathroom just now?”
One of the wives said this to the table full of people with a mysterious tone.
At this moment, even Yan Kuan turned his head to look at the wife. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, the wife was very happy that her gossip had made everyone so curious. She cleared her throat and said to everyone,”I see Old Master Chen and the second son of the Jiang family, Jiang Haoran.”
