Chapter 379: White Moonlight in the Ancient Bloody Novels (22)
Jiang Zui sat on the chair, yawned, and said casually: "Not awake yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen glanced at Jiang Zui with embarrassment on his face, thinking: What kind of occasion is this? Just... just start talking...
Jiang Shixuan and Gongsun Yu, who were standing by, were stunned when they heard this.
When Gongsun Yu first came to serve tea, he didn't see Jiang Zui, and he felt a little happy in his heart, because this meant that the other party still had him in his heart.
But now...
Jiang Zui actually mentioned that country boy of unknown origin in front of him? !
Still not awake?!
hehe--
Jiang Zui could actually do that to that vulgar guy. He must be so hungry that he could eat anything.
Jiang Shixuan had a hint of pride in his eyes. Jiang Zui already had someone else, and Gongsun Yu would definitely not have any feelings for Jiang Zui anymore.
Jiang Zui was no longer a threat to him.
Jiang Chen coughed and said, "Don't bully Lan Hua all day long."
"Dad, I didn't bully him. If there was anyone to bully, he should have bullied me." Jiang Zui retorted.
Besides, Yan Lanhua is his wife, how could he bully her, except in bed.
Jiang Chen ignored Jiang Zui and turned to look at Gongsun Yu and Jiang Shixuan and said, "Gongsun, since you have married Shixuan and joined the Marquis' Mansion, you should live happily together from now on."
Jiang Chen's implication was to warn Gongsun Yu not to do anything shameful behind the scenes.
"I will follow your teachings, sir." Gongsun Yu bowed to Jiang Chen with a cold expression and said.
"Okay." Jiang Chen said calmly, "After serving tea, let's go eat."
According to Daqian law, on the second day after a new husband enters the house, he needs to cook a meal for his parents-in-law to show his ability to manage the household.
Although wealthy families do not require the new husband to cook personally, he is nominally in charge of the kitchen.
Therefore, Gongsun Yu got up early and asked the kitchen to prepare this meal.
The food was delicious, but it was a pity that only two of them enjoyed it.
These two people are Jiang Zui and Jiang Chen, father and son.
Gongsun Yu has been staring at Jiang Zui ever since Jiang Zui appeared.
Jiang Shixuan's eyes followed Gongsun Yu, so he saw everything that Gongsun Yu was paying attention to Jiang Zui.
He is obviously her husband, but she is staring at her elder brother. Why is that?
After finishing the meal, Jiang Chen was the first to leave the table.
After Jiang Chen left, Jiang Zui wanted to stand up and leave, but Gongsun Yu stopped him, "Brother Jiang Zui."
Hearing the protagonist's voice, Jiang Zui raised his eyebrows and thought to himself: Huh? !
He shouldn't have anything to say to Gongsun Yu, right? !
Seeing Jiang Zui in a daze, Gongsun Yu angrily shouted at him fiercely, "Brother Jiang Zui, did you do this on purpose?"
What? What the hell?!
Why doesn't he understand?!
Seeing that Jiang Zui didn't answer, Gongsun Yu thought that Jiang Zui had acquiesced, and said angrily: "Brother Jiang Zui, I know that I have let you down, but...but you can't retaliate against me for this, can you?!"
There is no mistress in the Marquis' Mansion, and all matters are handled by Jiang Chen.
But...but now she is married and has become a member of the Marquis's Mansion.
He is also Jiang Chen's daughter-in-law.
Logically speaking, if the parents-in-law wanted to hand over power, they would mention it after dinner.
However, Jiang Chen wiped his mouth and left after eating, showing no intention of handing over power to him.
Before, when he and Jiang Zui were good friends, Jiang Chen once said that once Jiang Zui got married, he would feel more relaxed.
But now... hehe...
Is it because I am not Jiang Zui's husband that I cannot give him the power of housekeeper? !
Jiang Zui must have been the one behind this.
Jiang Zui pointed at himself with a confused look on his face and said helplessly: "I...retaliate against you?!
Are you kidding me? !
Why should I take revenge on you?
What did I do to you to avenge you?
"You! You...you just found a random guy to show off in front of me and didn't let me manage the household just because I fell in love with your brother and you were not satisfied."
It was the first time that Gongsun Yu heard Jiang Zui speak to him so impolitely. In a fit of rage and shame, he blurted out what he said without even thinking.
Jiang Shixuan, who was sitting next to Gongsun Yu, opened his mouth and was about to organize something, but unfortunately Gongsun Yu had already spoken and it was too late.
Hearing Gongsun Yu's words, Jiang Zui's eyes were filled with disdain, and he said contemptuously: "Gongsun Yu, do you think you are a celestial being? How can you make me feel unhappy?"
Bah, in his heart only his wife is a goddess.
Gongsun Yu saw Jiang Zui mocking him and angrily said, "Jiang Zui, you!"
Jiang Zui interrupted, "Shut up!
Gongsun Yu, since you asked me, I will make things right with you today to avoid any mess in the future.
First of all, I no longer like you. I only like my husband.
As for you, there is no need to act like you feel guilty about marrying Jiang Shixuan. That's disgusting, you know?
Second, the housekeeping power you mentioned belongs to my husband."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gongsun Yu immediately retorted: "Why?! My father-in-law had said before that he would give me the power of stewardship."
"You also said that was in the past. What was your identity before? What is your identity now?
My father will only give the housekeeping power to his legitimate daughter-in-law, my husband. Do you understand now?
The stewardship of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion can only belong to the Marquis's husband, and I am the prince, and I will inherit the title of Marquis in the future. By then, you and your husband will both have to leave the Marquis' Mansion."
Jiang Zui's words made Gongsun Yu and Jiang Shixuan's faces turn black.
Jiang Zui was right, it was indeed so.
Jiang Zui is the eldest son of Marquis Yong'an and the nephew of the current emperor, while Jiang Shixuan is just a bastard's son. There is a huge difference between the two.
As long as Jiang Zuiyi inherits the title, he and Jiang Shixuan must separate. According to the rules, the legitimate son takes 90% and the illegitimate son takes 10%.
Gongsun Yu felt even more unhappy when he thought about this.
The reason why he, the legitimate son of the prime minister, was able to marry Jiang Shixuan with the consent of his father Gongsun Yuan was because they believed that Jiang Zui was already dead at that time.
After Jiang Zui's death, Jiang Chen only had Jiang Shixuan as his son, so the title had to be given to Jiang Shixuan.
But who could have thought that Jiang Zui would come back safe and sound.
Gongsun Yu thought for a moment and said, "Even so, you are still unmarried, right? It's not easy for father-in-law, so I will give the housekeeping power to you first, and when you get married, I will return it to my sister-in-law. Isn't that the same?
Besides, the boy you want to marry comes from the countryside and knows nothing about housekeeping. Why don't you let me teach him?"
Gongsun Yu planned to use a roundabout route.
Since the hard one is not enough, then use the soft one.
After saying this, Gongsun Yu looked at Jiang Zui expectantly, hoping that Jiang Zui could give him good news. Unexpectedly, Jiang Zui's words instantly sent Gongsun Yu from heaven to hell.
When Jiang Zui said this, there was a cunning look in his eyes, "Of course you can."
Suddenly, he changed his tone and said, “But it’s not necessary.
Doctor Yan and I are getting married in two months. It seems...useless to ask you to take care of me for these two months...
It’s also troublesome when handing over.
As for the butler?
Don't worry, there are plenty of maids in the mansion."
"What?!" Hearing Jiang Zui's words, Gongsun Yu was surprised and said, "You and that Yan guy are going to get married in two months?!"
Jiang Shixuan didn't know why he saw Gongsun Yu so excited. He felt very uncomfortable and a hint of darkness flashed in the depths of his eyes.
Jiang Zui looked down upon Gongsun Yu's excitement.
how? !
You can change your mind, but he can't get married?
"Yeah." Jiang Zui replied with a smile, as if he didn't hear the displeasure in Gongsun Yu's tone.
"No!" Gongsun Yu refused without thinking, "I don't allow it!"
"Ayu!" Jiang Shixuan carefully tugged at Gongsun Yu's sleeve, shook his head, and signaled with his eyes.
Gongsun Yu immediately pushed Jiang Shixuan away and angrily scolded Jiang Zui, "Jiang Zui, you don't even have any explanation for me..."
"Huh?!" Jiang Zui asked in confusion: "Why should I explain to you?"
After a pause, Jiang Zui looked back and forth between Gongsun Yu and Jiang Shixuan, and said, "What about you? Gongsun Yu, why don't you explain?"
Humph! Don't say anything to each other.
Gongsun Yu was gone for only half a year... no... three months after the original owner left. In the original plot, it took only three months for the news of the original owner's death to reach Chang'an and for the original owner to return to Chang'an.
However, Gongsun Yu quickly changed his heart in just three months.
As for himself, he is not the original owner. The only person he has liked from the beginning to the end is Xiao Fulang, and he has not changed his heart.
After receiving Jiang Zui's gaze, Gongsun Yu suddenly felt guilty, "I...I...Jiang Zui, don't change the subject.
Besides, it is only natural for Shixuan and I to be together.
And... moreover, we only got together after the news of your death came.
I have been sad for you, I have cried, I have been devastated, and I even wanted to follow you.
But at that time, I was not only the person you liked, but also my parents' child.
It was Shixuan. It was he who saved me and pulled me out of the abyss.
Between us...if you want to blame someone, just blame us...we are not destined to be together.
But this matter has nothing to do with Shixuan."
Gongsun Yu thought that his words could impress Jiang Zui, but in fact, in Jiang Zui's opinion, all of this was too high-sounding and fake.
Even if she said the truth, she had just learned of her lover's death and was so sad that she even wanted to be buried with him. But within three months, she got together with her lover's brother.
This is too ridiculous.
