Lucky Star Little Maid - C184
Looking at Jiang Han’s expression, Xu Shiqiu could roughly guess what he was thinking.
Thinking about the shock he felt when he first met Elder Sun, he could not help but laugh. “Elder Sun, it’s been so long since you last came out. “Well, we were shocked to see you here.”
Once Xu Shiqiu said this, not only Jiang Han, but even Elder Sun and Yan Ye started laughing.
“What you said made a bit of sense. This old man has indeed not come out for a very long time.” “However, even if this old man does not come out, this old man’s reputation is still there.” After saying that to Xu Shiqiu, the Elder Sun looked directly at the smiling Jiang Han, and pointed at him: “My junior has already told this old man about it, and this matter is his fault.”
Hearing the Elder Sun speak out and explain the situation, Jiang Han’s heart was at ease.
As long as today, Elder Sun did not want to casually hide this matter.
Previously, he was afraid that the Elder Sun would use his identity to call this matter his own fault.
Seeing that Jiang Han only smiled and did not speak, Elder Sun sighed and said straightforwardly, “His parents passed away young. It was this old man who raised them up all these years. And now, something like this has happened. This old man did not teach him well. ” After saying that, Elder Sun glanced at Yan Ye, and helplessly continued to speak to Jiang Han: “It’s just that this child is stubborn. Thus, this old man accompanied him here today. “For this matter, I hope that you can spare him for my sake.”
Jiang Han understood that the Elder Sun was trying to put the blame on him.
However, with just the reputation of the Elder Sun s alone, it would not be good for him to make any excessive requests.
“Yanzhu is my cousin after all. I’ve thought about it in the past few days, even if she’s not my wife, she’s still my cousin.” Saying that, Jiang Han glanced at Yan Ye, and after confirming that he did not know him, he continued: “Since you’re someone my cousin likes, as your cousin, I will try my best to fulfill your wish. However, right now, my Jiang Family is also unable to protect myself. ”
Jiang Han did not hide it from him, and after he finished speaking, he started to talk about how his uncle’s house, in order to get involved with Third Prince, had also dragged his Jiang Family in.
After saying that, Jiang Han brought up the matter of Third Prince wanting to ask for money.
“Although there’s a lot of silver in Jiang Family and business, I, Jiang Han am not a person who doesn’t have good judgement. For the sake of the Third Prince s, you have asked me to spend several generations of accumulated wealth, I am unwilling. ” After saying that, Jiang Han looked at Xu Shiqiu, and then continued: “Right now, I just want Jiang Family to get rid of the Third Prince, and when Yanzhu and I are done with our marriage, not only will the dowry Yanzhu brought be taken away, I, as her cousin brother, will also prepare another dowry for her.”
Jiang Han said this very clearly, he even said out the difficulties his family had recently encountered.
The Third Prince wanted to rope him in, but he was unwilling.
This was the problem with Jiang Family.
As for the dowry that he had promised Xu Yanzhu, Xu Shiqiu and Yan Ye understood immediately. If they could settle this matter this time, Jiang Han would make use of her dowry to give them some silver.
Although Xu Shiqiu did not have much silver, he did not lack silver.
As for Yan Ye, Xu Shiqiu reckoned that he also had a lot of silver with him. After all, he had been able to escape from the crown prince’s mansion with his life, so he definitely could have brought a lot of silver with him.
Furthermore, although the Sun family didn’t seem like they were lacking, they owned a lot of land and didn’t need to pay taxes. Thus, they didn’t lack money.
However, if Yan Ye truly had that intention, the more silver he had, the better.
had tried to probe him a few times already, but he always said that he wasn’t thinking of doing so.
The other one who was short of money was likely his brother-in-law.
Brother-in-law was definitely lacking in money. Even if his sister had a lot of dowry at the time and he still had money for her Zhang Family, if he wanted to sit on that son of his, he still needed to spend some money.
So at this time, Xu Shiqiu did not speak.
Xu Shiqiu did not speak, and after Jiang Han finished speaking, he did not speak either, as he waited for Yan Ye to speak.
When Elder Sun heard Jiang Han’s words, although he felt that Jiang Han had some tricks up his sleeves, he was still a qualified businessman. The most important thing was that his eyesight was still good.
Yan Ye could feel that everyone was waiting for him to speak. He only pondered for a moment, and then said straightforwardly: “The dowry, is a woman’s confidence. “In the future, I will leave all of them for the girls to give birth to. I can’t do anything that would covet a girl’s dowry.”
Although Yan Ye’s words were not directly said, it was clear that he would not covet Xu Yanzhu’s dowry.
Although Jiang Han did not know what Yan Ye’s true identity was, just by coming here personally from the Elder Sun and the way Xu Shiqiu looked at Yan Ye, Jiang Han was already able to guess that Yan Ye’s identity was likely not simple.
At the very least, he wouldn’t be as simple as the grandson of the Elder Sun.
Jiang Han did not want to guess more, so what if he guessed it?
Right now, the most important thing for him was to protect Jiang Family’s property.
With Yan Ye’s words, when Elder Sun looked at Jiang Han again, the expression in his eyes became gentler than before, “Don’t worry, Yanzhu will be this old man’s granddaughter in the future. With this old man protecting her, no one will dare to bully her.” Finished speaking, the Elder Sun did not care about their expressions, and continued: “You are not young anymore, although you still guard your filial piety, but in the end, you still need to hurry up and pass on your teachings. In the future when you have a son that can read books, send someone to deliver it to the Sun family. If this old man is still alive at that time, I will personally teach him. If this old man does not live past that time, then this old man’s eldest son will personally teach me. ”
Once Elder Sun made this promise, Jiang Han was so excited that he didn’t know what to do.
It was not easy to change one’s residence’s Jiang Family. At least one shop’s reputation would not be good.
However, if his son was able to follow the Sun family and study in the future, even if he couldn’t participate in the Imperial examinations, the people he would meet in the future would definitely not be just some business family.
Most importantly, even if he was a merchant in the future, no one would look down on him if he became the Sun family’s disciple.
Thinking about it here, Jiang Han’s heart completely burned with passion.
The Sun family was a big family that was famous throughout the two dynasties. Everyone in that family knew how to read!
Jiang Han’s happiness was too obvious. Seeing him rejoice in such a way, Elder Sun also laughed.
Since he had promised Xu Family and the Jiang Family, then when they send the child over in the future, the Sun family would definitely carefully teach him.
The Sun family couldn’t promise them anything else, but they dared to promise the two of them to teach them.
When Jiang Han calmed down, he saw that the Elder Sun, Xu Shiqiu and Yan Ye were all looking at him. This time, he was a little embarrassed and coughed awkwardly, before saying to Xu Shiqiu and the Elder Sun: “The next few days are in which the Jiang Family will be filial. At that time, it will be explained to the outside world that marrying my cousin was only forced. For the past year, Harry has been guarding the gift. ”
As for whether or not anyone believed his words, Jiang Han felt that there were still people who would believe it.
At least, when he and Xu Yanzhu had been living in the courtyard, and when Xu Yanzhu had gone out before August, she was still a woman.
Eight months later, Yanzhu had very few opportunities to go out, and even if sshe went out, he still had to go to the Xu Family. As long as the people from the Xu Family did not say anything, she could hide it from them.
But…
When he thought about how such a thing could potentially be used by someone like the Third Prince, Jiang Han said straightforwardly: “But right now, my Jiang Family is being targeted by the Third Prince, I’m afraid that at that time the Third Prince will make a big deal of this matter.”
To put it bluntly, Jiang Family was only a merchant. If it wasn’t for the Xu Family girl, the matter of him and Xu Yanzhu being together would not have attracted the attention of others.
But Xu Yanzhu was a Xu Family woman, and now that Xu Shiqiu was in the limelight, there must be a lot of people staring at the Xu Family, so when the time came, there was a chance that something might happen.
After Xu Shiqiu heard Jiang Han’s words, he looked at Yan Ye and said directly, “I’m afraid that Third Prince will not have the time to look for you for a period of time. If you need to do something, go and do it as soon as possible. As for the other matters, rest assured, you are Yanzhu’s cousin and can be considered my junior. I will keep an eye on you. ”
With Xu Shiqiu’s words, Jiang Han could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Xu Shiqiu, Yan Ye and the Elder Sun did not stay for long at Jiang Family. After they finished speaking, they left separately.
As for going to see Xu Yanzhu, nobody mentioned this matter tonight. Since sshe had already spoken with Jiang Han, he should trust him.
Jiang Han was indeed a person who kept his word. When he just finished discussing with Xu Shiqiu and the others, they immediately went to personally see Xu Yanzhu and told them their plans.
After he finished speaking, Jiang Han looked at Xu Yanzhu who was leaning against the bed, his face had a hint of a smile: “Right now, the most important thing for Cousin sister is to rest up, listen to the tone of the Third Uncle, when you leave the Jiang Family, I’m afraid you will be sent to another place.”
Xu Yanzhu was in an extremely good mood. As for why she wanted to go somewhere else, Xu Yanzhu understood.
It would definitely not be good for him and Jiang Han to stay in the capital for the rest of the time. At the very least, he would not be able to return for the next few years.
However, thinking that she could be together with Yan Ye in the future, she still couldn’t help but be happy.
“Cousin, thank you.” Xu Yanzhu thanked Jiang Han sincerely. After all, she had let him down on this matter.
Usually, when Jiang Han heard his words, he did not say anything, but today, he shook his head and said, “I have obtained benefits too, so although you let me down at the beginning, I did not suffer any losses.” After he finished speaking, Jiang Han sighed before continuing, “Furthermore, I understand that letting you marry me, is already making you feel wronged in the first place.”
He, Jiang Han, was not only a merchant, but also someone who had already married twice before.
His cousin’s Xu Family and second wife were not as good as third and third wives, but their Xu Family and heritage were still there. If it weren’t for his aunt, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to marry her.
If he hadn’t married her last year, she would most likely have happily married the man she saw today.
After thinking about this, Jiang Han left Xu Yanzhu’s place, and even the servant that was guarding outside immediately took his away, passing the people who were inside and outside the courtyard to Xu Yanzhu without worry.
Cui Hua glanced outside and immediately came back to tell Xu Yanzhu about this.
When Xu Yanzhu heard this, he finally let out a sigh of relief. “This matter, can finally be resolved.” After saying that, Xu Yanzhu looked at Cui Hua with a face full of reluctance: “Cui Hua, if I leave the capital, you can return to Third Aunt’s side.”
To date, Cui Hua had even led him through two monthly orders. One was given to him by Dong Shu and the other was given by Xu Yanzhu.
Previously, Xu Yanzhu had told Dong Shu about the day of Cui Hua’s return. It was just that during this period of time, something like that had happened to her, which was why she kept Cui Hua by her side the whole time.
But when she thought about how she would have to leave the capital soon, she could not bear to part with Cui Hua.
Cui Hua accompanied her through the most difficult days of Jiang Family. This friendship would not change just because she had someone else serving her.
Upon hearing Xu Yanzhu’s words, Cui Hua lowered her head and thought for a moment, then looked at Xu Yanzhu and said: “First Miss, Cui Hua wants to accompany you to the outskirts of the country for a few more months. At the very least, you will have to wait until you produce safely before Cui Hua can relax.” After saying this, Cui Hua thought for a moment, then continued: “As for Madam, she will definitely agree to it.”
Xu Yanzhu was especially moved upon hearing Cui Hua’s words. Although Hua Yu and Hua Su had served him well, Cui Hua was different. She represented the concern her family had for him.
Thinking to this, Xu Yanzhu nodded her head: “This matter is not urgent, when there is a chance, I will personally ask Third Aunt.” After saying that, Xu Yanzhu yawned and prepared to sleep.
But at this time, Jiang Han was already carefully arranging how he was going to spread the news, preparing the groundwork for him and Xu Yanzhu to leave.
As for Xu Shiqiu, he had returned home and sent news to Ye Jingxing, his brother-in-law, throughout the night.
After sending the news, Xu Shiqiu looked out the window at the night sky and muttered: “Tomorrow at dawn, I’m afraid there won’t be any peace.”
