After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

Chapter 23 The Feng Family Did Not Take a Favour of the Jiang Family

Mrs. Feng looked serious.

"Yun'er, you are usually very mature and steady, how could you do such an outrageous thing? Have you ever thought about how you would deal with it if someone else found out?"

Feng Yijun bit her lips tightly and said nothing.

Mrs. Feng knows her daughter best.

Although he was born into a scholarly family, Feng Yijun was not as conservative as Master Feng. Beneath his well-educated and well-mannered appearance, he had a heart that dared to take risks.

Forget it. Since her daughter doesn't want to, she can't force her.

But the master must not be informed of this matter. Given his pedantic nature, who knows what might happen.

"What are your plans now?" asked Mrs. Feng.

Feng Yiyun's throat tightened a little, and she said hoarsely, "I will think of a way. If he has no such intention, I will follow my mother's arrangements."

Mrs. Feng sighed, it was true that love was the only thing that could matter to men and women in this world.

Later, when Master Feng returned home, Madam Feng told him about Madam Zuo's visit.

Master Feng frowned, then he understood.

No wonder Jiang Lianyi was so kind in the court these two days. He thought he was possessed by an evil spirit.

He didn't expect that the old man's son would fall in love with his daughter.

"What did Yun'er say?"

"I think the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is great, but Yun'er doesn't want to."

Mrs. Feng poured a cup of tea for Master Feng and said.

Master Feng took the tea, somewhat puzzled. "Why?"

Although he looked down on Jiang Lianyi, he had to admit that his eldest son was indeed outstanding and the Jiang family was indeed a good match.

"Yun'er feels it's too early to discuss marriage now and wants to stay at home for two years." Mrs. Feng explained.

Master Feng took a sip of tea and thought, it seems that the two families are indeed not destined to be together.

"But don't wait too long." Taifu Feng said, "It's not that the Feng family can't afford to raise her, but if we wait too long, it will damage Yu Yun'er's reputation. We should meet each other when the time comes."

Mrs. Feng nodded, "I know."

So the next day, when Mrs. Zuo came to the house with great joy, she did not expect that Mrs. Feng would recommend this marriage to her.

"Mrs. Feng, why is this?"

Mrs. Zuo was very surprised. Didn’t they have a good conversation yesterday?

"My daughter is still young, and there is a big age gap between her and the eldest young master of the Zhenguo Mansion. After thinking about it last night, I still feel that it is not appropriate. Let's just give up on this matter."

Mrs. Feng couldn't tell her daughter's true thoughts, so she could only explain it this way.

Jiang Ciyan was twenty years old and Feng Yijun was sixteen years old.

The age difference of four years is not big, but also not small.

It depends on the other party's attitude.

Mrs. Zuo didn't know the reason and just thought that the Feng family didn't like the Jiang family.

Never mind. This is a matter of mutual consent. No one can force it.

Mrs. Zuo understood what was going on and sighed.

"Now that things have come to this, I will go and reply to the Jiang family first." Mrs. Zuo stood up and took her leave.

Looking at Mrs. Zuo's leaving figure, Mrs. Feng felt worried.

I don't know whether it's good or bad to reject this marriage proposal...

Listening to Mrs. Zuo's retelling, Mrs. Jiang felt very uncomfortable.

Regardless of whether it was because of age issues, the Feng family did not fancy her eldest son.

Although the matter was not accomplished, Mrs. Jiang was still very polite and prepared a generous gift for Mrs. Zuo.

Mrs. Zuo tried to refuse it many times, but finally she had no choice but to accept it.

After Madam Zuo left, Madam Jiang looked worried and said to Madam Xu, "Why is Yan'er's marriage so difficult..."

Aunt Xu was also sad.

She had watched the young master grow up, his character and appearance were beyond reproach, so why was he so unlucky in marriage...

But she still stepped forward and pinched Madam Jiang's shoulders, comforting her, "Madam, don't worry too much. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Maybe the eldest young master has not found his true love yet."

Mrs. Jiang sighed and said, “I hope so.”

As soon as Jiang Ci returned home from his shift, Mrs. Jiang sent someone to call him to the front yard.

Jiang Ci Yan was somewhat excited. Was there any progress on the Feng family's matter?

When he arrived at the front hall and saw Mrs. Jiang's solemn expression, Jiang Ci Yan immediately had a bad feeling.

"Yan'er," Mrs. Jiang looked at her son's hopeful eyes and couldn't help but speak, "The Feng family... rejected this marriage."

Boom!

Jiang Ci Yan took a half step back, his face turning pale.

"W-why?"

Madam Jiang sighed and told him what Madam Zuo had said.

Jiang Ci Yan couldn't believe it, his mind was in a mess.

Seeing Jiang Ci Yan's distraught look, Mrs. Jiang felt very sad.

"It's okay, Yan'er. There are so many outstanding women in Kyoto. Mother will find a better one for you."

Jiang Ci Yan looked stunned. He did not hear what Mrs. Jiang said. His heart was filled with the pain of being rejected.

This state continued until dinner time.

It's a rare gathering of the Jiang family tonight. Jiang Ci Jin goes out early and comes back late every day because of the affairs of Bai Xiang Lou, and today he finally has time to go home for dinner; Jiang Ci An, who has been training in the military camp recently, also returned home for a rare trip.

Duke Jiang looked at his family members gathered together today. Besides feeling some emotion, he also felt more warmth brought by his family.

He was so happy that he asked his servants to take out the good wine he had stored.

Jiang Ci'an and Jiang Ci Jin stared at their father's wine, their eyes shining, and said bluntly that they would not stop drinking tonight.

Even Jiang Ci Yan, who never drank alcohol, poured himself a glass of wine.

Duke Jiang thought that Jiang Ci Yan had finally come to his senses and was willing to drink.

The whole family had a lively meal, except Jiang Ci Yan.

As the story drew to a close, Duke Jiang remembered something.

"By the way, the list of the autumn hunt has been released. In previous years, Li'er never went, but this year, because of Princess Ningyang, His Majesty specifically asked me to take you with him."

"Li'er, do you want to go?" asked Duke Jiang.

When the autumn hunt was mentioned, Jiang Ruoli's alarm clock rang.

[Autumn Hunt! It was during this Autumn Hunt that the Third Prince arranged for assassins to pretend to kill the Emperor. He took the initiative to block the knife for the Emperor and was seriously injured and unconscious for several days.]

[Because of this incident, the status of the third prince, who was already deeply loved by the emperor, rose sharply. After he recovered from his injury, he went directly to the court to listen to government affairs. ]

[The crown prince was punished by the emperor for his poor performance, and his second brother who was in charge of the guards was also punished.]

[However, since the Third Prince is under house arrest this time, there shouldn't be any more assassinations. ]

Thinking of this, Jiang Ruoli said, "Dad, I want to go."

The Jiang family was horrified.

Who would have thought that such a big thing would happen during this autumn hunt? !

The third prince is indeed very scheming. He can even scheme against his own father.

It seems that we need to be more careful on guard.

Duke Jiang gave Jiang Ci'an a look and Jiang Ci'an nodded.

Seeing the atmosphere was a bit solemn, Jiang Cijin joked, "Little sister, Baixianglou is almost ready, you can come when it opens."

Jiang Ruoli said, "That's natural."

Jiang Cijin clicked his tongue twice, "It's so good to be a hands-off boss. I'm so poor that I have to work so hard while someone else is eating and drinking at home. I'm so envious!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ruoli was so angry that she reached out to hit him.

Mrs. Jiang looked at the jubilant faces of the brother and sister and felt a little relieved. She looked at Jiang Ci'an beside her and asked about his recent life in the army.

Jiang Ci Jin and Jiang Ruoli were chattering loudly, while Madam Jiang and Jiang Ci'an, mother and son, were speaking in gentle voices.

Only Jiang Ci Yan was sitting there drinking alone.

Duke Jiang finally realized that something was wrong.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"
