Chapter 106 I Don’t Want To
The mother-in-law on the side knelt down with a pop, "Miss, no, no matter how much Madam indulges you, don't act nonsense. Even if you reject the Wei family's marriage, if word spreads that the girl is sick and cowardly, how will you discuss marriage in the future!"
"Is it okay for me to turn my back on you and not get married? If you ask me to marry that well-dressed beast, I'd rather kill him."
When Miss Du Yutongjiao's temper got worse, the mother-in-law couldn't do anything about it either.
"Miss, please think about this master. This matter is of great importance, and he also has his own reasons."
"Hmph! Aren't you just afraid of the one in the palace? Not only did the Du family marry an aunt in the past, but this also requires sacrificing my life's happiness, and I'm not willing to do so."
Jiang Shuyue and Qiu Ju looked at each other and realized that the Du family and the Wei family were engaged.
Qiu Ju winked at Jiang Shuyue, meaning that Young Master Wei and Jiang Jiaojiao were having sex, right? Why are you still engaged to the Du family?
So what's going on with Jiang Jiaojiao?
Jiang Shuyue has been very busy recently, but she also asked Cangyun to inquire about Jiang Jiaojiao's marriage.
I learned that Jiang Jiaojiao had trysts with Mr. Wei San in the teahouse every now and then.
The big ship of the Wei family would sink sooner or later. Jiang Shuyue didn't need to take action, she could just wait for Jiang Jiaojiao to commit suicide.
Today's trip was a worthwhile trip, letting her know about the marriage between the Wei and Du families. If she didn't do something, she would be really sorry for her former concubine.
After arguing with Qiu Ju for a while, the maid tried to persuade her to no avail and closed her mouth.
At this time, a maid came in with tea and cakes.
Du Yutong, who was furious, realized that the person he invited was still standing.
"Sister Jiang, come and sit down quickly. Can I call you Sister Jiang? You look very much like a sister I once met." Du Yutong said, his eyebrows suddenly softened, and he patted the small couch.
Jiang Shuyue didn't hesitate, walked over and sat down.
"I'm a few years older than Miss Du. It's not a loss if the daughter of the Minister of Dali Temple calls me sister."
"If Miss Du can trust me, I can find a way to make the Wei family willingly terminate their engagement with you."
"Are you serious about what the girl said?" Before Du Yutong could speak, the servant girl got up from the ground.
Du Yutong was so excited that she grabbed Jiang Shuyue's arm, her eyes shining, "Sister Jiang, do you really have a way?"
Jiang Shuyue smiled and nodded.
Du Yutong was so happy that he almost jumped up and shook Jiang Shuyue's arm vigorously.
He said cheerfully like a sparrow: "Sister Jiang, it's great to get to know you. You are as kind-hearted as the sister I know."
The servant woman was also very excited, "Blessed by Bodhisattva, the second young lady has met a noble man today. If there is a way to peacefully terminate the engagement with the Wei family, my wife will not have to argue with the master."
"To be fair to Miss Du, I own a medical clinic and go to the medical clinic for consultation every day. One day I passed by a teahouse and happened to see Young Master Wei and a girl entering the teahouse one after the other."
"If it's once, it's a coincidence, but I've seen him three times. I think Young Master Wei already has someone he likes."
"Sister Jiang, are you saying that Young Master Wei was forced to marry me?"
Du Yutong didn't feel disappointed at being rejected. Instead, he was extremely surprised, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
Jiang Shuyue smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, Miss Du. The marriage between two families has been a matter of parents' order since ancient times. Maybe Young Master Wei also has his own reasons."
"What should we do? If the girl asks my wife to ask Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei will definitely not admit it. If the girl doesn't get into the Wei family, they will immediately bring a whole room of aunts into the house." The servant woman was panicking. A mess.
"Don't worry, it's useless to rush this matter. If Mr. Wei and the girl have a private meeting next time, and you bring people to call the Wei family to confront them, the Wei family will no longer be pestering the Geng Tie. Bar?"
"Thank you very much, Sister Jiang. Please give me a gift from my sister." Du Yutong stood up quickly and gave Jiang Shuyue a courtesy.
"Miss Du, you're welcome." Jiang Shuyue stood up and held her arm.
Then Du Yutong's eyes turned red, "Sister Jiang, this news is so important to me. I haven't had a good night's sleep since I changed the Gengtie."
"Everyone outside said that Young Master Wei is a gentle and humble gentleman. My aunt of the Du family married the second wife of the Wei family. My aunt has nothing to do. The old lady of the Wei family has stuffed no less than five concubines in my aunt's courtyard."
Du Yutong sniffed, "My aunt once told my mother when she came back. She said that all the sons of the Wei family look like dogs, but they are all bad guys at heart."
Jiang Shuyue also knew some of what Du Yutong said.
"Don't worry, miss, I will go and report to the madam right now." The servant girl bowed and was about to leave.
Du Yutong quickly shouted and warned, "Don't make this matter public. Don't let father know about it. Let the people in mother's room keep an eye on it."
Men have different considerations. The Wei family has great power, and the minister of Dali Temple is also wary of it.
As long as the matter of Young Master Wei's secret meeting with a woman is made clear, the Wei family can only accept the Du family's annulment.
The servant stepped back, and Du Yutong took Jiang Shuyue's hand and sat down.
"Sister Jiang, you and I hit it off right away. Can I go and play with you often?"
"Of course you can. There are many girls in my medical clinic. You can identify medicinal materials with them when you come here. From now on, no one can fool you in the back house."
Du Zhong was afraid of the Wei family. To be precise, the four major families in the capital were not as harmonious as they seemed.
The emperor, the courtiers, and the marquises and nobles conferred by Emperor Renzong all fell silent.
If Xiao Jingzhao wants to sit in that position, he also needs to win over powerful officials. One more friend is better than one more person who causes trouble.
Du Yutong is a good person, and Jiang Shuyue is willing to make friends with her.
"When I cancel the Wei family's marriage, I will have plenty of time to visit you in the clinic. Sister Jiang, please don't find me annoying."
Du Yutong was really hungry, and she took the cake and persuaded Jiang Shuyue and Qiuju to taste it.
Jiang Shuyue and Qiuju waved their hands, "We just had lunch, and we really can't eat now."
Du Yutong was really hungry, and she didn't care about the reservedness of a lady from a noble family. She picked up a piece of cake and put it in her mouth, eating it in big mouthfuls.
"Today, in order to force my mother to ask my father to cancel the engagement, I really didn't have lunch."
Jiang Shuyue saw her wolfing down, and stood up to say goodbye, "Miss Du, since you can eat and drink, I'm going back to the clinic now."
"Well, don't, Sister Jiang, wait a minute."
Du Yutong swallowed the cake in her mouth and grabbed Jiang Shuyue's wrist.
Jiang Shuyue felt a slight chill on her wrist, and when she looked down, she saw a jade bracelet with a lot of water on her wrist.
"Miss Du, is this not allowed?" Jiang Shuyue wanted to take off the jade bracelet and return it.
Du Yutong held Jiang Shuyue's hand, "Sister Jiang, can you call me Sister Yutong from now on? I felt very kind to you the first time I saw you, just like my elder sister. This is my sister's personal belongings, so don't refuse."
Looking at Du Yutong's eager eyes, Jiang Shuyue couldn't say anything to refuse.
