Chapter 58: On Marriage
Jiang Ning didn't reject going home at all. After all, it was his own home, how could he hate it? In fact, he was also ready to go home, but it was a long time for Jiang Jian to take him back from Zhang's mansion. So he was unhappy, so he was happy to find some unhappiness for Jiang Jian who made him unhappy.
Back in Jiangfu, Jiang Jian, one of the two who didn't deal with each other, quickly left to fulfill his duties as the prefect of Xiangzhou, and let Jiang Ning go his own way.Without Jiang Jian, Jiang Ning in the Jiang family would be like a fish in water without tigers and monkeys dominating the mountains.
After saying hello to Qiu Chen, Jiang Ning went to visit his elder brother and sister-in-law at home, and went to see his two younger brothers to tease him, and then had a hot time with his nephew and niece.
After playing at home for two days, Jiang Ning finally couldn't sit still and took his little niece Jiang Meng out. Of course, the first stop he went out was Zhang's mansion.Jiang Meng is the only girl in the Jiang family, and she is treated like a princess. Jiang Ning also loves this cute little niece very much, and often takes her out.
Jiang Meng is also very popular in Zhang's house. As soon as he entered the door, Xu Pei, who loves children very much, left him behind. "Tiantian, come to great-grandmother, great-grandmother will bring you something delicious"
"Great-grandmother" Jiang Meng and Xu Pei were very familiar. As soon as Jiang Ning let her go, she ran to Xu Pei's side with a very sweet voice.
"Grandma, where's Master Jiu?"
Xu Pei teased Jiang Meng, and took some time out of his busy schedule to say, "Xiao Jiu, he went to discuss business, and he is at Huaxia Restaurant."
"Grandma, Tiantian will let you stay here. I'll go find Master Jiu." Jiang Ning immediately went to Zhang Jiu without waiting for Xu Pei's answer.
When Jiang Ning arrived at Huaxia Restaurant, Zhang Jiu’s discussions with fools were coming to an end. Jiang Ning took the initiative to act as a bystander. The people sitting here were already used to either Jiang Ning or Zhang Jiu coming halfway. They just nodded and waited until the conversation After finishing, I started to exchange pleasantries with Jiang Ning.
"Jiang Shao, it's been a long time. It's not enough to be a friend when you come back without notifying," Liu Gan said with a smile.
"Aren't I locked up at home by my father? I came to you just after I was released from prison today. If Liu Shao still minds, then I have to punish myself with three cups to express my apology." Jiang Ning picked up the cup.
"Forget it, what you drink is tea instead of wine, that's so boring." Liu Qian said with a smile. Many people now know that Jiang Ning, who pours only a few cups, uses tea instead of wine.
Jiang Ning put down his glass politely, "How about I pay for your meal today?"
"Will I pay when you check out?" Zhang Jiu asked with a smile.
"Naturally, we have always been indistinguishable from each other," Jiang Ning took it for granted.
"Forget it, since I'm the one who pays the bill, why bother you?" Anyway, he is the one who pays the bill, so why bother.
"In Xiangzhou, who doesn't know that the two of you are one, no matter which one of you, the favor can be divided into two." So don't make unnecessary arguments.
"Young Master Liu, I heard that you have a precious son, when will the Hundred Days Banquet be held?" Although Jiang Ning was not in Xiangzhou some time ago, he still knows every move in Xiangzhou very well.
"The Hundred Days Banquet is naturally held during the children's daytime, can you stop asking such idiotic questions?" Zhang Jiu said disgustedly.
"I don't know when Liu Shao's child will be born?" Jiang Ning felt wronged.
Liu Gan interjected, "Don't worry, Young Master Jiang, I will definitely invite you when the time comes. You have to prepare a generous gift, otherwise I won't let you in."
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely prepare a very generous gift, and I won't let you down."
Why doesn't he expect Jiang Ning's generous gift at all now?Liu Gan suddenly felt chills down his spine, he laughed dryly and said, "When will I be able to ask for a glass of wedding wine at Young Master Jiang and Master Jiu's wedding banquet?"
"Don't worry, it won't be too far away," Jiang Ning replied immediately, he has already given so many gifts, what if he didn't take them back, he has a good reputation as a profiteer, even for such a gift, he will get married.
"Could it be that Young Master Jiang already has a marriage contract?" The gossip in Liu Qian's heart turned rapidly. In Xiangzhou, no one knows that Zhang Jiu and Jiang Ning are the best sons-in-law. Many people want to climb these two high branches, but these two The person involved had no intention of getting married, which made many people feel hopeless.
Jiang Ning shook his head at Liu Gan who was staring at him eagerly, "No."
The gossip that was spinning rapidly in Liu Qian's heart suddenly straightened up, "Then why did Young Master Jiang say it's not far away?" It made him a little excited in vain.
"Compared with the millennium, the few years he thought is not too far away," Zhang Jiu explained to him.
"The one who knows me is none other than Lord Jiu." Jiang Ning looked at Zhang Jiu with bright eyes.
"What about Master Jiu?" Liu Gan wentssiped again.
Jiang Ning immediately replied, "It's not far away."
This not far away should have the same meaning as the not far away just now, so Liu Gan wisely stopped asking.
What Jiang Ning didn't expect was that the day after Liu Qian asked him, his marriage was put on the agenda by Jiang Jian and Qiu Chen. , even Qiu Chen, who has always spoiled him, stood on the united front with Jiang Jian.
Like a trial session, Jiang Jian and Qiu Chen looked at Jiang Ning who was sitting below.
"Xiao Ning," Qiu Chen said after considering his words.
Jiang Ning almost got goosebumps all over his body when he heard his mother's nine-sounding voice, and his right eyelid kept twitching. He had a premonition that it was definitely not a good thing this time, "Mom, what's the matter with you?"
"I discussed it with your father. Since you don't want to take the imperial examination, we won't force you. After all, the melons that are forced are not sweet, do you think so?"
This is a good thing for Jiang Ning, but the twitching right eyelid tells him not to relax, and there will definitely be a follow-up.
Sure enough, Qiu Chen paused for a moment and continued, "You are getting old this year, so you should take care of yourself. Anyone as old as you already has several children. Do you think you should too?" Are you planning to get married?"
"Mother, didn't we agree to wait for me to find a satisfactory person to talk about this matter?" Jiang Ning began to have a headache. Zhang Jiu said that marriage is a grave, and he really didn't want to bury himself so early.
"Find what is satisfactory? What is satisfaction? You have been searching for so many years and you still haven't found it. Can that satisfied person fall from the sky if you wander around like this every day?" Jiang Jian patted the table and said, feeling that he really couldn't No matter how indulgent Jiang Ning is, no matter whether it is a big family or a small family, there are only a few people as big as Jiang Ning who have not yet married.
And Jiang Jian has other headaches, that is, his other two sons have also followed suit. They have reached the age of marriage and have no plans to get married. Jian felt that the main reason for this was Jiang Ning. As long as Jiang Ning's problem was solved, other problems would not be a problem.
The one who could fall from the sky was Sister Lin. Jiang Ning lowered his head and first refuted Jiang Jian's words in his heart. "But this kind of thing depends on fate, and there is nothing I can do if fate doesn't come!"
"What fate?" Jiang Jian took the case again, "Look at the other people, who hasn't even met each other before getting married, hasn't they still had a good life, how many are like you? Just you Jingui? Just Are you demanding?"
"With you and mother in front, how can I look at other people?" Jiang Ning replied confidently.
It can be said that Jiang Jian and Qiu Chen are all in a free love union. At the beginning, Jiang Jian was just a poor scholar, but Qiu Chen was the daughter of an official family. Jian, but Qiu Chen made up his mind and insisted that his family rescind the marriage contract chosen for her by his family. For this reason, he did not hesitate to force his life and almost broke off the relationship with his family. The relationship gradually eased.
Jiang Jian was blocked for a moment, and stared at Jiang Ning fiercely, "Your mother and I got married very early, why didn't you see this?"
"I see," Jiang Ning nodded, "but I'm not as lucky as you, father, and I haven't found someone who is willing to treat me like my mother treats my father. If someone is willing to treat me like this, I will get married right away like my father .”
