Rebirth, guarding the mute at the tip of my heart
Chapter 38 Making a fool of yourself
Thinking of this, the wife of the Ningguo Mansion could no longer sit still, and smiled at Fu Xuerong and said, "I have always heard that the Jiang family has a daughter who is both talented and beautiful. After seeing her today, it is true.
Madam Jiang is so lucky to have raised such an outstanding daughter. I wonder which boy will get her as a gift."
The ladies were all used to such occasions, and they all echoed what was said.
Upon hearing this, Fu Xuerong only smiled slightly and said modestly: "My dear ladies, you are too kind. Although I have several sons in my family, I only have this one daughter, so I have spoiled her a little. The rumors are really exaggerated."
Jiang Daiyu also looked shy, lowered her head slightly and said: "Yu'er thanks all the ladies for the compliments, I don't deserve the title of a talented woman."
"Mrs. Jiang is being modest."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"..."
Lady Ningguo saw that Fu Xuerong and Jiang Daiyu were a little flattered by the crowd's praise, so she immediately seized the opportunity to ask:
"My second son is now working in the Ministry of Personnel and has achieved some success. It's a pity that this bastard is already 20 years old and still hasn't married. It really makes me, as a mother, anxious.
I think Yu'er and I are destined to be together. If Madam Jiang is interested, why not form a relationship with my family?"
As soon as the voice fell, regardless of Fu Xuerong, Jiang Daiyu was still young after all, and couldn't hide his thoughts. His smile froze in place, and he blurted out subconsciously: "No!"
The second son of the Duke of Ning's mansion, even if he is the legitimate son, has his elder brother above him. In the future, the title of Duke will definitely be inherited by the eldest son. The second son is just a small official in the Ministry of Personnel. What future can he have? !
What's more, even if the second son wins the title, no matter how powerful she will be in the future, at best she can only be the wife of a duke. How can she compare with a prince's wife or even a queen?
She doesn't want to marry into the Ningguo Mansion!
However, although she thought so in her heart, she could never say it out loud.
Sure enough, when everyone heard that the little girl's mother didn't say anything, she hurriedly refused, as if she was afraid of being chosen.
You have to know that the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words are the final word. How could the daughter of an official family make a decision without going through her parents? It's too unruly.
The ladies looked at Jiang Daiyu with disdain and contempt, especially the ladies and daughters of the Ningguo Mansion.
Lady Ningguo immediately frowned and sneered, "Miss Jiang is so proud and arrogant that the young master of Ningguo Mansion is not worthy of her."
This ignorant little girl, what kind of family is the Ningguo Mansion? If their eldest young master had not married the virtuous king, they would not take this Miss Jiang seriously at all.
They just praised her a few words, did she really think she was a fairy from heaven? Ha!
Fu Xuerong was also very angry. She pinched Jiang Daiyu's wrist under the table and apologized with a smile, "Please forgive me, Madam Ning! What my daughter meant is that marriage is a matter for the parents to decide, and she can't say it herself.
This is the first time I've heard my marriage being discussed, so I'm a little nervous. I said something wrong in a hurry, so please forgive me, Madam!"
This idiot! How many times have I told you that even if they are aiming for the position of the Fourth Prince's wife, they must not let others see it, and they must not let themselves say anything they shouldn't say in front of so many people!
Before leaving, she reminded him again and again! This idiot is still so impatient!
Fu Xuerong was so angry at her daughter that her chest ached, but she still had to stand up and apologize to the wife of Duke Ningguo.
The official position of any family in the backyard is higher than theirs. If they think that she looks down on them and does not want to marry her daughter to them, they will definitely gossip in front of their master when they return. By then, even if she feels sorry for her daughter, the master will never let Yu'er off easily.
Jiang Daiyu finally realized that his behavior just now was inappropriate. He stood up with a pale face and apologized to the people in Ningguo Mansion: "Yuer didn't mean that at all. It's just that Yuer was tongue-tied and said the wrong thing. Please forgive me, madam. Please forgive me, madam!"
As he spoke, Jiang Daiyu choked up in his throat and couldn't help crying out loud.
Finally, Madam Wei came to the rescue and said with a smile, "It's just that the little girl said something out of turn, it's not a big deal.
Miss Jiang, please don't cry. Madam Ning is very generous and will definitely not blame you."
Upon hearing this, the people from Ningguo Mansion just snorted coldly, and obviously looked like they didn't want to talk any more with Fu Xuerong and her daughter.
Jiang Daiyu immediately looked at Madam Wei with tears in her eyes and pitiful expression, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Madam Wei said embarrassedly, and smiled at everyone: "Alright, alright, I invited all of you ladies here today because of the beautiful scenery in this garden. Please don't let other things ruin your mood of enjoying the flowers."
"Madam Wei is right. Madam Jiang, Madam Ning, don't be angry. It's just a misunderstanding. It's not worth it to get sick from anger." After hearing what Madam Wei said, the ladies laughed and tried to smooth things over, and the atmosphere soon became lively again.
However, the look that Mrs. Wei gave to Fu Xuerong and her daughter was not as warm as before.
Although the Jiang family has established a relationship with the virtuous king, the family education of this Jiang family is really not commendable.
Even if the Fourth Prince wanted to win over the Jiang family, at most he could only give the daughter of the Jiang family the position of concubine.
If Jiang Daiyu were to become the principal wife, I'm afraid there would be no peace in the Fourth Prince's harem.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wei shook her head in her heart and turned her attention to the daughters of the other ladies.
*
At this time, Jiang Xin and Xie Ze were naturally unaware of the little twists and turns in the backyard of the Wei Mansion.
But even if they knew, they wouldn't care too much.
Because Jiang Xin suffered from a mouth disease, he had never thought about what his future wife would look like. He didn't want to delay others, so he gave up his plans to get married and have children early on.
Therefore, if there were rumors that the Jiang family's children were poorly educated, it would not have much impact on him.
As for Xie Ze, he would not take it seriously at all.
In this life, he planned to be with Jiang Xin legitimately, and even let everyone in the world know that he and Jiang Xin were a match made in heaven, not a relationship between a prince and his male favorite.
As for those trivial matters of the Jiang family that are not worth mentioning, what do they have to do with him?
If there was only one person who cared, it would probably be Jiang Liangcai who was following behind the two of them.
Like their father Jiang Zhengchu, he also wanted to climb up the social ladder and become successful.
Who gave him such a good-looking face? If he didn't make good use of it, he would be doing himself a disservice.
If he knew what happened in the backyard today, that Jiang Daiyu had brought disgrace upon the Jiang family and had put an end to his idea of climbing up the social ladder among these dignitaries in the future, he would probably be so angry that he would curse Jiang Daiyu every day.
