A Cousin Came to the Duke's Mansion

Jiang Xuesui lost her mother when she was three years old. As the saying goes, her mother died waiting for her uncle to come. Sure enough, three days later, Jiang Xuesui's three uncles who were far away in the capital came to pick her up. Jiang Xuesui was a young lady, and her father had many difficulties in raising her. However, her maternal ancestral home, the Duke of Xiangguo, had several cousins ​​with whom she could play, read and write. Like my grandmother, my aunts are kind people who love the younger generation. Now that Jiang Xuesui goes to the Duke of Xiangguo's mansion, her father can rest assured and be a parent official who benefits the people. So little Jiang Xuesui bid farewell to her father and went to Beijing. On the first day she came to the Xiangguo Duke's Mansion, everything was fine. Her grandmother was kind, her aunts treated her affectionately, and her cousins ​​were very happy with her. Only the taciturn and stern-looking older cousin Wen Qiao was not good. He would rather play with the puppy than say a word to her or look at her seriously. Jiang Xuesui didn't bother to pay attention to such a boring person. * Jiang Xuesui lived in the Xiangguo Duke's Mansion until she was in her late teens. This year, my father became the chief minister and was rewarded by the emperor with a mansion in the capital. She had her own home in the capital, so it was natural for her to return to her father. Jiang Xuesui was the daughter of the chief minister, and she grew up in the Duke of Xiangguo's palace, which was famous for its virtuous virtues and virtuous poetry. The nobles in the palace were interested in her marriage. One day, Jiang Xuesui went to Bodhi Temple to offer incense. She met the prince first and then King Cheng. Two marriage papers were handed to her, but she rejected them both. She only pointed at Wen Qiao standing under the mountain gate and said, "Your Highnesses, I have admired my cousin for a long time. If I want to marry, I will only marry him." In Jiang Xuesui's opinion, this was just a joke used to reject others. But after Wen Qiao won the first prize in the exam and proposed marriage to her father, he said: "By the orders of my grandmother, father, and mother, and in order to match my cousin's long-standing admiration for Qiao, Qiao came to ask my uncle to marry Xuesui." Jiang Xuesui, who was hiding behind the screen in the hall and eavesdropping, became anxious. Without caring about his face, he rushed out and said in a very unkind tone: "Wen Qiao, if you say this, doesn't it seem like I am talking in front of my grandmother, uncle, and aunt to force you to marry me." "Isn't it?" Wen Qiao looked confused and confused, "Why don't I repeat to my uncle what my cousin said to your two highnesses that day? If it was just my cousin's words that were against her will, why not make it clear today." Okay, okay, you big-headed ghost. Jiang Xuesui could only suffer the loss of being dumb. If she admitted that she had said something against her will, according to her father's upright character of being loyal to the emperor and patriotic, he would definitely take her to the palace to confess her crime to the emperor and empress. So she said angrily: "Father, my daughter has agreed to this marriage." After they get married, let's see how she treats him. * After marriage, the days are short and the night is short, and the brocade tent is shaken every night. Jiang Xuesui sensed something was wrong. She stood up and opened the curtain, peered out and stared at Wen Qiao who was tying her clothes, and said, "That day you deliberately provoked me to agree to the marriage, right or wrong?" Wen Qiao stared at her, slowly uttered the word "yes", then sat by the bed and put on her coat, "You and I have known each other since childhood, and I am naturally the person who knows your temperament best in the world."
