MTL - Transmigrated As Cannon Fodder To Marry-Chapter 1 Modified~
chapter 2
It took two full buckets of water before Jiang Lin washed Wei Yunzhao clean.
When he asked the maids to come in and change the sheets and quilts, he managed to see the unbelievable expressions on their faces, more confused, obviously they really couldn't imagine why there were so many black dirty things coming out of the general and his wife's bridal chamber?
Not only the people were dirty, but the bed was also dirty. Looking at the two buckets of black water being carried out, it was almost blinding.
Couldn't it be caused by the fire-avoiding plan given by Madam Ye?
But the maids didn't dare to ask, so they could only obey the order to change the quilt and make the bed. After the bed was remade, Jiang Lin gritted his teeth and carried Wei Yunzhao back to the bed, and then went to look through Wei Yunzhao's closet.
When the maids came in to make the bed, Jiang Lin also saw the dowry arranged for him by the Marquis of Anyang, a servant named Chang An. In addition, two boxes of dowry were given, each containing a set of bedding.
In short, the Anyang Hou Mansion didn't even give him any clothes.
It was too miserable, so he could only find out if Wei Yunzhao had any clothes suitable for him.
Because it took a lot of time to bathe and add clothes, Jiang Lin was wearing Wei Yunzhao's old clothes when he left the room, the sun was already high outside, and he said to the two maids who had been guarding the door: "Let's go, You lead the way."
The two servant girls looked at Jiang Lin's clothes, then at Jiang Linkong's loose hands, "Young Madam, are you going there empty-handed like this?" one of the servant girls asked.
Another added next to it, "Young Madam, who is visiting the General's Mansion for the first time, should prepare some greetings."
Jiang Lin has read quite a few novels, so he knows that.
Jiang Lin raised his hand and rubbed his sleeves, but the Anyang Hou Mansion didn't even give him a suit of clothes, let alone a greeting gift.
Jiang Lin opened his mouth and came, "Maybe my father and my stepmother didn't like the general's mansion, so they didn't prepare for it."
The two maids were all shocked, obviously they didn't expect Jiang Lin to say that.
Regardless of what they thought, Jiang Lin strode forward out of the courtyard. Since the Anyang Houfu dared to do it, then he had nothing to dare to say, anyway, he is not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet now.
…
The place to serve tea was in Mrs. Wei's courtyard. Jiang Lin arrived late, and the rest of the Wei family were already sitting in the room waiting for him.
As soon as the maid opened the curtain, all eyes in the room focused on him.
Jiang Lin glanced across the room, the Wei family was full of yin and yang, there were only two or three men in the room, one of them was a child who was not as tall as a chair.
"Hey, I'm willing to come here. The eldest son of the Anyang Marquis Mansion is really a noble man. He actually asked the elders in this house to wait for you all morning."
As soon as Jiang Lin entered the door, he heard such a strange sentence.
Jiang Lin followed the source of the voice, and saw that it was a richly dressed woman, about thirties. There was a man sitting next to her, the only adult male in the room.
At a glance, Jiang Lin knew that the woman who spoke was the wife of Wei'an, the fifth member of the Wei family.
Even though the original body had no contact with the Wei family, he still knew something about the situation of the Wei family.
Mrs. Wei gave birth to five sons and two daughters in total. The daughters were married early and all married to other places. Among the five sons, two, three and four died on the battlefield when they were young, leaving only the female family members, not even a queen.
Wei Yunzhao's father, Wei Su, was the eldest son. Before Wei Yunzhao grew up, the entire General's Mansion depended on him to support him.
As for Wei An, he is the youngest son of the old lady. As the saying goes, the youngest son and grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady. Mrs. Wei was afraid that her youngest son would die on the battlefield like her elder brothers, so she raised her by her side since she was a child, pampered and doted on her, and raised and disabled her for life.
Now that he is over 30 years old, if he can't achieve military success, he still relies on the Wei family's military achievements to get around. But Wei An's heart was all about eating, drinking and having fun, he never thought about being a serious errand at all, he only knew to ask the old lady for money every day to fool around.
Wei An is still a playboy, he is the only concubine in the five houses of the Wei family, and there are a lot of rooms, all of which are supported by the old lady spending money.
But I don't know why, although Wei An has many women, he has no heirs, only two daughters, and they are both born to his wife, Xiao Zhou.
Mrs. Zhou is the niece of Mrs. Wei. With the support of Mrs. Wei, she is very prestigious in the Wei family, and she is not far behind even mocking Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin could tell from the expressions on the faces of the members of the Wei family that most of them didn't like it.
Jiang Lin can probably guess why, one is because the original owner has a bad reputation, and the other is that he is a man.
Jiang Lin ignored Mrs. Zhou's words, went straight to Mrs. Wei, took a cup of tea and knelt down to offer tea to her.
Mrs. Wei had a cold face, she didn't mean to take the tea, "The Marquis of Anyang is really good at it, and the marriage given by the emperor can be changed as soon as it is said."
Jiang Lin lowered his head and held the tea, but didn't answer the words. In fact, he was also curious about what method the Anyang Houfu used to let him marry in as the eldest son of the Anyang Houfu, and he hasn't been troubled by the Wei family yet.
"I don't care what your status was before or how unrestrained you were, but now that you have entered the Wei family, you are the daughter-in-law of the Wei family. From now on, you must guard the family rules, otherwise, you will be dealt with according to the family law!"
Hearing this, Jiang Lin raised his head slowly, just in time to meet the cold eyes of Mrs. Wei.
Jiang Lin raised his hand, with a soft tone and a submissive attitude, "Bring grandma to tea," without any dissatisfaction after being reprimanded.
Mrs. Wei obviously hadn't finished talking, but after being stabbed by Jiang Lin like this, she would look stingy if she tried to say any more.
Madam Wei took Jiang Lin's tea with dissatisfaction, and asked the waiter to hand Jiang Lin a box, which was a gift for him.
The maid who followed Jiang Linlai consciously stepped forward to pick it up, and Jiang Lin respectfully thanked Mrs. Wei.
At the same time, I also saw clearly the appearance of the woman who handed the box. It was the old lady who let him consummate the marriage with Wei Yunzhao last night. No wonder the attitude towards him last night was the person around Mrs. Wei.
What happened last night has always been ordered.
After Jiang Lin glanced at her indifferently, he walked up to Mrs. Wei and knelt down to offer tea to her.
Mrs. Wei is Wei Yunzhao's mother, and the daughter-in-law has changed from a woman to a man, which may affect her son and heirs in the future. Thinking about these things, Mrs. Wei will not like Jiang Lin anymore. But after all, it was her daughter-in-law, and she didn't lose face too much, she only told Jiang Lin to take good care of Wei Yunzhao, and drank tea.
After drinking the tea, he also gave Jiang Lin a meeting gift. The maid thanked Jiang Lin after accepting it, and then went to serve tea to Xu's second bedroom.
The atmosphere in the room was a bit strange, especially the eyes cast on Jiang Lin, it was an inexplicable feeling, everyone seemed to want to say something, but they opened their mouths but didn't speak.
The two, three and four houses were only left with female relatives, and they didn't have much to say to Jiang Lin, the male daughter-in-law. They would just drink tea and give gifts with a few words of blessing.
When she walked in front of Wufang, Xiao Zhou sneered coldly, "The Anning Hou Mansion is really well-bred, I have never seen a new daughter-in-law who can't get it back when she visits her elders for the first time, could it be that this is what you guys did so well?" Idea, deliberately want to get a fortune from our general's mansion?"
Little Zhou was so disdainful, her eyes almost rolled to the sky, she felt that she was already picky enough, but today it made her gain insight.
Mrs. Zhou started, and Mrs. Wei, who had been holding back for a long time, also snorted, "This is to visit my Wei family, and you plan to collect the things and go back to your Anyang Marquis Mansion?"
Mrs. Wei obviously disagreed, but she was her own daughter-in-law after all, so she held back and didn't speak.
Others reacted roughly the same way, but their dislike for Jiang Lin was a little bit more.
Jiang Lin's eyes slowly turned red in such an atmosphere. He walked up to Mrs. Wei in two or three steps, and cried out in a crying voice, "Mother!"
Mrs. Wei was taken aback by him, and the others obviously didn't expect to cry after saying a few words about Jiang Lin, a grown man.
Jiang Lin grabbed Mrs. Wei's hand aggrieved and pitifully, "Mother, I know it's wrong that I didn't prepare a meeting ceremony for everyone, but I can't help it."
Jiang Lin asked Mrs. Wei to look at the clothes she was wearing, "Mother, do these clothes look familiar to you?"
Mrs. Wei looked at it carefully, and it looked familiar, but she didn't remember it deeply. It was the maid next to her who reminded her, "Madam, this is the clothes the general wore before."
Jiang Lin is half a head shorter than Wei Yunzhao in stature, and not as strong as Wei Yunzhao. The clothes Wei Yunzhao wore when he was fifteen or sixteen years old fit him well, but the Wei family didn't realize it at first.
As soon as the servant girl reminded her, Mrs. Wei quickly asked Jiang Lin, "It's fine, why are you wearing Zhao'er's old clothes?"
Then I passed a message to Jiang Lin, "Mother, you know, I lost my mother since I was a child. My father married a stepmother, and his stepmother gave birth to several children for him. He only likes them and doesn't like me."
"I don't know why I suddenly married into the general's mansion. The general is a hero of Dai Viet. I admire him, but I never thought of marrying the general. I know that I have a bad reputation and will add stigma to the general. , how could I do this."
"I know my father doesn't like me, but I really didn't expect that he would throw me to the general's mansion just because he didn't like me. I only found out this morning that I got married yesterday and the Anyang Hou mansion didn't give me any dowry. I didn't give you a body, so I..."
"Mother, I'm sorry, I didn't know that my father would anger the General's House because he didn't like me. I was the one who was sorry for the General's House," Jiang Lin said in a sobbing voice, with tears hanging in his eyes. No matter how you look at the face with a bit of baby fat, it hurts.
When you get married, you don't even give them all the clothes to wear, so how can you think of preparing a meeting ceremony.
"It makes no sense!"
As soon as Jiang Lin finished speaking, the Wei family realized what it meant, and Mrs. Wei was the first to get angry. She slapped the table next to her, and the lid of the teacup jumped and made a sound.
Mrs. Wei's face was full of anger, "The Marquis of Anyang is too deceitful, and they don't care about my Wei family."
Mrs. Wei stood up with a cane in her hand, "What a marquis of Anyang, if I don't ask for an explanation today, he will really think that my Wei family is empty!"
When Mrs. Wei made a move, other people stood up to persuade her, even if they wanted to ask for an explanation, it was not so straightforward, and a long-term discussion was needed.
Mrs. Zhou walked up to Mrs. Wei, "Mother, this Anyang Marquis Mansion is outrageous, but this Jiang Linke is also from the Marquis of Anyang Mansion, who knows if what he said is true or not," said Mrs. Zhou, lowering her voice, " Aunt, let's be careful not to follow his way, our general's mansion is not what it used to be."
"Auntie, let's find out the matter first. When the time comes, we will not only ask for an explanation, but also send this Jiang Lin back. Auntie, our Wei family can't have any male daughter-in-law. It's shameful."
