Jiang felt that although her daughter had an engagement with Xu Qian, it would be a bit unruly to ask her daughter to go out with Xu Qian at night. If she had not been immersed in the outstanding style of her prospective son-in-law at that time, Jiang would definitely...

Will you refuse?

Looking back on the handsome appearance of her prospective son-in-law, Jiang was guilty. She probably heard it clearly, so she couldn't refuse.

I agreed. If I regret it, what will the prospective son-in-law think of her in the future?

There was no choice but Jiang had to bite the bullet and face Cao Tingan.

After autumn, the night came quickly. When Cao Ting'an returned from the Ministry of War, it was dark.

Jiang served him considerately and changed his official robe. When Cao Ting'an sat down on the warm bed, she diligently held a bowl of chrysanthemum and wolfberry tea that calmed the liver and moistened the dryness. The tea in the white porcelain tea bowl was slightly yellow, the wolfberry was bright red, and the chrysanthemum petals were layered, which made people's eyes lit up.

Cao Ting'an glanced at his wife before taking the tea bowl and drinking it.

Jiang inexplicably thought of the elegant attitude of his prospective son-in-law when drinking tea, and his gentlemanly temperament all over his body. Although his face was cold, he did not give people a sense of rudeness.

They are all famous military officers, why is the difference so big?

"Tell me, why ask me?" Cao Tingan teased. Jiang used to treat him gentlely, but he was not as attentive as he is today.

Jiang came back to his senses, clenched his hands, lowered his head and said ashamed: "Today, Master Xu Wu is here. He said that he would take the second girl from the Duke's Mansion to the outside of the city to set up Kongming lanterns on Mid-Autumn Festival. He also wanted to take Ayu, Apei to join in the fun. I, I think it is interesting to put Kongming lanterns on it, so I responded."

Cao Tingan's thick black and thick eyebrows immediately frowned.

Putting Kongming Lantern? Xu Xiaowu clearly means that the drunkard is not drinking. What’s even more hateful is that Xu Xiaowu dared not beg him, so he came to coax his wife with a good temper. She is so slutty and cunning!

Seeing that Jiang Shi was worried that he would get angry, Cao Tingan hummed and said coldly: "I'll just answer. Let Ayu pretend to be sick and let him be dismissed."

Jiang was unwilling to do so, so he looked at him timidly: "I agree. If you do this again, wouldn't I have to break my trust in him?"

Cao Tingan stared at her and said, "If you break your promise, you will break your promise. What do you care about him?"

In short, she is only seven or eight years older than Xu Qian. Could it be that like her daughter, she was also confused by Xu Qian's little face? Otherwise, how could she, who was the most cautious and ruler, easily agree to Xu Qian's invitation?

Even, does she even envy Xu Qian for his youth and dislike him for his age?

Thinking of this, Cao Ting'an's face immediately became darker than the bottom of the pot.

Jiang was terrified and wanted to delay for a while. Seeing that Cao Ting'an was so angry, Jiang simply brought out tears. After a moment of brewing, he turned around and wiped the corners of his eyes quickly: "In the future, the prince will not care about his reputation in front of his daughter-in-law? What's more, I, I have never let Kongming lanterns go, just want Ayu to play with something new. When I was a child, my family was poor, and Ayu was your daughter. One day, a group of young sisters gathered together to talk about Kongming lanterns. Others had played with him, but Ayu didn't let him go. How pitiful it would be."

The little woman was both wronged and fucked. Cao Ting'an's jealousy was replaced by pity in a blink of an eye. It turned out that she had never seen Kong Minglan and wanted her daughter to gain knowledge.

However, it’s just Kongming lantern. If she opens her mouth, he will take her to release it. What’s there to be enviable?

"Do you want to turn on the light?" Cao Tingan pulled Jiang into his arms.

Jiang shook his head and leaned against him and said, "I'm not a child anymore, I just want Ayu to go and have fun."

Cao Ting'an snorted, "Who said that sir can't turn on the lights? In this way, we will follow them that night. He is young and energetic, and I'm not at ease with Ayu to follow him."

It was one thing to promise to betroth his daughter to Xu Qian. Before marriage, Xu Qian took advantage of his daughter but it was not possible.

Cao Tingan will never give in to this point.

Jiang was embarrassed and begged: "Forget it, it's a joke when it is heard, and Master Xu Wu is well-behaved and will not exceed the rules."

Cao Tingan sarcastically said: "I am a man, I understand better than you."

I think when he was in his twenties, he was really like a wolf or a tiger.

But now he is not bad!

In order to prove that he was still young, Cao Tingan was once again in a powerful night that night.

The next day, Jiang's sleep was slept until the sun was noon.

When he woke up and saw his daughter, Jiang was sad and relieved, and said softly: "Ayu, yesterday, Mr. Xu Wu came to give a gift and asked to take you to put the Kongming lantern. Do you want to go?" Yesterday, Cao Ting'an was unclear and she dared not tell her daughter. Now Cao Ting'an has agreed, and Jiang finally dares to say it.

Ayu wanted to go, so he asked curiously: "Dad did you agree?"

Jiang smiled bitterly: "Yun is, but he still doesn't worry about you going out tonight and insists on bringing me to walk with you."

Ayu:...

The daughter looked shocked and said, "Jiang's face turned red." What did Cao Ting'an get involved in the young man?

Seeing that his mother was embarrassed, Ayu said happily: "Okay, it's fun to go with our family. Are the eldest, second, younger brother and younger brother going too?"

Jiang was funny and teased her daughter: "If you don't bring them, there are so many people, how could the fifth master dare to whisper to you?"

Ayu lowered his head shyly, but thought to himself, would Xu Qian's cold and straight temper really get close to her secretly?

In any case, Ayu was full of expectations for this Kongming lantern appointment.

A day has passed and the Mid-Autumn Festival has arrived.

Every household has a reunion dinner during the day, and the real fun is all at night.

Ayu prepared a box of date paste mooncakes she made in advance. The crust was crispy and the filling was soft and sweet. She kept it for her two sisters to eat at night.

"I think the girl is specially made for the fifth master." Baochan, who already knew the secret of his master's engagement, muttered teasingly.

Ayu glared at her, his eyes were as bright as water, and no matter how he looked, he was more ashamed than angry.

Supper, the three families in the Cao family sat in the same place for a reunion dinner.

Ayu had already greeted his cousin Cao Pei. The two sisters looked at each other at the dinner table and were very excited.

The second wife Zhao looked at her two nieces. While missing her married daughter Cao Qin, she wanted to show off her daughter's good marriage, so she envied Jiang first. The third wife Xu said, "Most of this year has passed, and the two sisters are becoming more and more erotic when they go out. Sister-in-law, brother and sister have to hurry up. There are only a few young men in the capital, don't be snatched away by anyone."

Jiang already had a good son-in-law, but he just smiled and looked calm when he heard this.

Xu also had a good candidate, but he didn't respond.

There were only three sisters-in-laws in total. Zhao, who ignored him, suddenly became embarrassed. Xu had the support of the Duke Zhenguo Mansion and was very confident. Zhao turned his head and stabbed Jiang: "Especially Ayu, although he is the legitimate daughter now,... in short, the eldest sister-in-law should hurry up. The marquis loves Ayu. With this alone, even if Ayu is not as good as her elder sister, she can marry an ordinary famous family."

After hearing Zhao's sarcasm for two lifetimes, Ayu got used to it and ate as if nothing had happened.

Jiang had the confidence and couldn't help but smile and replied, "Don't worry, second brother and sister, Ayu will never marry worse than the older girl."

Zhao almost laughed out loud!

Her daughter married a serious prince of the Jue family. What qualifications does Ayu, a legitimate daughter who became a concubine, have to compare with her daughter? Jiang really thought that with Cao Ting'an's favor, she would be recognized by the women of famous families? Dreaming, a poor family is a poor family, and her aunt is a concubine, and no matter how glorious she is, she will not be able to get on the table.

"Okay, then I'll wait for good news from my sister-in-law." Zhao smiled sarcastically.

Ayu glanced at her and thought that Xu Qianneng asked Zhao to put away his face. Tonight I wanted to be more arrogant and be nicer to him.

She liked Xu Qian, but Xu Qian spoke too coldly in this life, so Ayu was angry for a while. This time, Xu Qian took the initiative to invite her to enjoy the lights and turn them on. No matter what he thought, whether he was responsible for the engagement or a little moved by her, it all means that Xu Qian had decided to be a good husband, and in this way, Ayu would do what he should do.

After dinner, when Ayu was about to go back to change his clothes, he met Cao Lian who had just walked out in the yard.

"Do you want to go to watch the lanterns tonight?" Ayu asked with concern.

Cao Lian didn't dare to talk to his sister anymore, for fear that his sister would invite him, so he said, "If you don't go, you have to be busy with official duties."

Ayu wanted to speak but stopped.

Cao Lian knew what she wanted to ask, and after thinking about it, he approached his sister and whispered: "The Yuan family lost people and was sued by the Ji family. Although the Yuan family spent a lot of money to appease the Ji family, this incident still affected Yuan Sheng's career. Half a month ago, he had been sent to the frontier to serve and took away his family when he left."

Ji Mingfeng's father was greedy. When he learned that his daughter had run away, he didn't care about his daughter's life and death. He just wanted to use his daughter to kill the Yuan family. When he arrived at Jingzhao Yin, the Yuan family said that Ji Mingfeng was not aware of his wife's manners and fled without permission. The Ji family was not strict in tutoring, and the Ji family sued the Yuan family for treating his daughter harshly. He was suspected of murdering his daughter and forcibly burying his deceased husband with his dead husband. He wanted to see someone dead and see the body. In short, his daughter was lost in the Yuan family, so he asked the Yuan family to compensate him.

Cao Lian originally planned not to interfere, so Yuan Sheng settled the Ji family by himself. Afterwards, he placed her in the village on the grounds that the Yuan family was still pursuing Ji Mingfeng everywhere, and used her as an outdoor room for the rest of his life. If Ji Mingfeng was not honest, he would release Ji Mingfeng while secretly notifying the Yuan family that when Ji Mingfeng returned to the wolf's nest, he would lure her back to him.

It is better to follow him than to be a widow in the Yuan family.

But my sister was too kind and caring about Ji Mingfeng. In order to save her worries, Cao Lian had to try to transfer the Yuan family.

He will also let Ji Mingfeng go out of the city tonight, but Cao Lian has already set up a net of heaven and earth. It won’t take long for Ji Mingfeng to return to his side and be an outdoor room or concubine in peace.

Ayu wanted to make sure that his brother hadn't fooled her, so he asked, "Where has he been transferred?"

Cao Lian said: "Liangzhou is a bitter and cold place."

Without mentioning his selfishness, Yuan Sheng should have learned a lesson if he instigated his mother to abuse his widow's daughter-in-law.

Ayu also wanted to ask Ji Mingfeng where he is now, and his father came out side by side.

Cao Lian patted his sister on the shoulder and left first.

Ayu wanted to leave, but Cao Tingan suddenly called out to his daughter: "Aren't you going to turn on the lights? Where else do you want to go?"

Ayu said obediently: "It's windy at night, I'll go change my clothes."

Cao Tingan looked at his daughter up and down, guessing that his daughter wanted to dress up carefully, so he ordered Baochan: "Go and get a cloak for your girls."

Baochan went there obediently.

Cao Tingan said to his daughter again: "Let's go, the carriage is ready."

Ayu bit his lip and gave his mother a wink.

Jiang's family couldn't help, and she helped all the people she could. This time she would fight Cao Ting'an again, and she would be tormented by him tonight.

My mother didn't help, Ayu touched the earrings and couldn't help but feel annoyed.

If she had known this would have happened, she would have dressed up before she came to eat.
