It was only a few days before he was about to announce it to the world. Wei Hanzhang only hesitated slightly, and in the face of Jiang's eager expression, he whispered: "It's...the prince."
“Tell me who it is!” She said the word ‘prince’ so softly that Jiang didn’t hear it clearly.
Wei Hanzhang had no choice but to raise his head, close to her ear, and repeated it softly.
Just like all daughters telling their mothers about their lovers, Wei Hanzhang couldn't hide his shyness and whispered: "It's not that my daughter intentionally hid it from my mother, it was actually him and I who just..."
"Wait a minute!" Jiang held her daughter's hand and her voice trembled slightly: "Who are you talking about? Have you been deceived?"
Wei Hanzhang: “…”
Her mother is really confused. Who dares to pretend to be the prince to deceive her? The most important thing is that she was helped by Xiao Boqian in public yesterday.
Fortunately, Jiang Ming also reacted quickly. She looked at her daughter in front of her, who was still a little immature but already a beautiful woman, with a dazed look on her face.
“…Mother? Don’t you recognize me?” Wei Hanzhang raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, explaining: “He didn’t lie to me. Didn’t he still…” yesterday?
"Silence!" Mrs. Jiang put down the hand covering her, walked to the window and took a look outside, then turned back, the shock on her face not gone, and whispered: "This is not allowed for such a big matter. "What?"
Wei Hanzhang looked aggrieved: "I deliberately spoke in a low voice."
"No wonder your grandfather asked you to ask questions all night long. Sure enough..."
Sure enough, there is no wind without waves.
Jiang held her heart, obviously the fact that her daughter's lover was the prince made her very excited. After a short pause, she asked: "How long have you been back in Beijing? When did you meet His Highness?"
"The first time we met was in Xuzhou." Since he had confessed, Wei Hanzhang had no intention of hiding it. After telling the story of the first meeting, he said: "At that time, I didn't know he was the prince, and I thought whose family he was. The disciple is here.”
“Then I came back to Beijing and met a few more times…”
Jiang was silent for a long time after listening with deep concentration.
She then found out that after her daughter returned to Beijing, she actually met the prince of the dynasty for so many days under her nose, and even the door on the courtyard wall was opened, in order to save her grandfather's family.
While she had no choice but to pray for her family day and night, her daughter was taking action.
The other two members of the Jiang family were able to get away with it, thanks to her Ran Ran.
Jiang's heart was sour and astringent, happy and pitiful, with a hint of worry, which was extremely complicated.
Finally, he wiped his tears with a handkerchief and asked: "Your Highness is much older than you... Ran Ran, please tell me the truth. Do you really like His Highness the Crown Prince, or... are you forced to save your grandfather's family..." "
“Where are you thinking? Of course I really like him.”
Mentioning the girl's worries, Wei Hanzhang felt a little awkward on his face, but he still explained seriously: "He is a bit big, but he is so good-looking. I have never seen a better man than him, and he is gentle." There is no one I like more than him."
Thinking of her sweetheart, her heart bubbled with joy, and her already agile eyes seemed to be shining with dazzling light.
Jiang was slightly startled, and then asked: "Looking at your appearance, His Highness seems to be very kind to you."
"Of course, he likes me," Wei Hanzhang raised his eyebrows slightly, with a face full of pride: "He likes me very much. It's the kind of love that he will not marry if he is not me, and he will not marry his future wife if she is not me." After a few breaths of silence, Mrs. Jiang couldn't believe that the Crown Prince, who was respected as a **** by civil and military officials in the court, and who was cold and indifferent to women, turned out to be a rare infatuated man in the world in her daughter's mouth.
But looking at the pampered confidence on her daughter's face, she couldn't help but believe it.
Her heart became more complicated, and she was puzzled: "My son is so lucky. There are countless noble girls in the capital who want to win over His Highness, but I never thought that His Highness would fall in love with a little girl like you who has not even had hair extensions yet. "
"What's the matter if I don't even have a hairpin..." These words made it seem as if it was unbelievable that Xiao Boqian fell in love with her. Wei Hanzhang was unhappy, "I don't think he is old, but he still thinks I am young."
“Speak well!” Jiang said angrily, “It doesn’t matter whether you are old or young, young or old, girls should have moderation in their words and deeds.”
Wei Hanzhang nodded obediently and said coyly: "We have agreed that when I grow up, he will..."
"...How?" Jiang Ming vaguely guessed something. Seeing this, he asked in a low voice: "What title does Your Highness intend to grant you?"
"What other status can it have?" Wei Hanzhang was stunned, then raised his head and said, "Of course she is the crown prince. Is it possible that he is willing to ask me to be his concubine?"
"That's good!" Hearing this, Jiang's face was overjoyed: "Of course my son can't be a concubine, not even for the royal family."
As a biological mother, she knew that her daughter’s lover was the current crown prince, and what she was most worried about was the status issue. Now that it was confirmed that her daughter’s identity was the crown prince’s concubine, she breathed a sigh of relief.
After the joy, Jiang asked again: "Since the title has been decided, why didn't your grandfather tell you the truth when he asked you last night?"
“…I don’t like them, I just want to tell my mother what’s on my mind,”
Wei Hanzhang pursed his lips and said, "My daughter didn't grow up in the Wei family, so she doesn't have much of a sense of belonging. What's more, in the past few months after returning home, she hasn't experienced any love and care from her grandparents. I just saw their utilitarianism.”
Especially after the Gu family came to break off the engagement, her status in the Wei Mansion plummeted. Fortunately, except for the New Year family banquet, the rooms in the Wei Mansion had long been in charge of their own affairs, and each room had to pay for food and clothing.
She lives in a second-room courtyard and uses the servants of the second-room house. The mistress of the house is her own mother, so she does not need to be under the jurisdiction of the main courtyard. Otherwise, she would have experienced a lot of differential treatment.
Wei Hanzhang said: "In the entire Hou family, I only recognize you and dad as my family."
Hearing this, the smile on Jiang's face also faded a little. She had been married into the Wei family for twenty years, how could she not know the style of the people in charge of the family? Originally, it was not the younger generation's turn to criticize the elders' actions, but How could she not be angry when her biological daughter was involved.
Since her daughter is willing to express her true feelings to her, Jiang will not go against her heart and teach her to be "filial".
"Since you have a plan, you don't say much as a mother." Even if she was dissatisfied in every way, Jiang's upbringing did not allow her to talk to her daughter about her parents-in-law's virtues in private. She sighed and said, "My son has been wronged. Yes, if not..."
She didn't finish the rest of the words, and Wei Hanzhang also knew it.
If it weren't for Xiao Boqian's backing, her marriage would have been a big problem.
Want to refuse the Liu family's arrangement and not marry into the Qian family?
I’m afraid it’s very difficult.
In this era where filial piety is paramount, even if Wei Heng and the Jiang family try their best to defend it, even if they offend their parents and parents-in-law, it will probably take a lot of trouble. (End of chapter)
