Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 135 Jiang Youchen ignores etiquette and laws to meet his fiancée

The miraculous doctor of Hengshan is named Zhang Simiao. He is over sixty years old and has been traveling abroad. He only returns to Hengshan for a few months throughout the year. Moreover, this old man has a weird temper, and ordinary people cannot ask him to come out for consultation.

Since even the miracle doctor couldn't cure the Zhou daughter, Jiang Youchen couldn't force her.

On this day, he personally sent the miracle doctor back to Hengshan and back to Jiangfu. Just as he was about to enter the gate, he was stopped by a little girl.

When the little girl saw him, she hurriedly asked, "Are you the third son of the Jiang family?"

Jiang Youchen nodded towards her: "What do you want from me, girl?"

When the little girl heard that the handsome young man in front of her was the famous "Jade Faced Man", she quickly knelt down and begged Jiang Youchen: "I am the personal maid of Ms. Zhou, the wife of Mr. Zhou, and our lady is She can no longer hold on any longer, so before she dies, the young lady has no other wish but to see the young master."

As she said that, she began to cry: "My young lady also knows that this is not in line with etiquette, and she also knows that the young master is in trouble. I just beg you to see the young master. For the sake of my young lady being a poor person, please go and see him." Just leave her alone."

Jiang Youchen is a very smart person.

After listening to the little girl's words, he guessed that the Zhou family must have mentioned this matter to his mother first. Her mother refused because she was worried that it would harm his reputation. This time, Miss Zhou had no choice but to ask her maid to beg him.

He helped the little girl up and replied, "Don't cry. I need to report this to my mother. You should go back first."

After sending the little girl away, Jiang Youchen stepped into the house and headed directly towards his mother Tian's residence.

Jingshu and her two sisters-in-law were chatting with Tian to relieve their boredom.

Jiang Youchen entered the house, respectfully greeted his mother, then greeted his two sisters-in-law and Jingshu, and then slowly said: "My child came back today and met Miss Zhou's maid. She said that that week The young lady wants to see the baby, but the baby has agreed to her, so she wants to tell her mother."

When Tian heard this, he immediately frowned and couldn't help complaining to his son: "How could you agree to such a thing?"

Jiang Youchen didn't know his mother's painstaking efforts. He bowed deeply to his mother and replied calmly: "My child knows that mother is doing everything for my own good, but since we have made a marriage contract with the Zhou family, then Miss Zhou is mine. My unmarried wife, my son cannot bear to see her die with regrets."

Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but persuade her: "My uncle has already gone to great lengths to seek medical advice for the daughter of the Zhou family. He has done his best. If you go to see her like this, it will damage your reputation, so why bother."

Jiang Youchen replied: "Reputation is earned by one's own virtue. If you have to destroy even the most basic compassion for the sake of reputation, what is the use of the reputation gained in this way?"

“I know that my second sister-in-law is thinking about me, but since meeting me is Miss Zhou’s last wish, I really can’t bear to refuse.”

As a woman, Jing Shu really approves of Jiang Youchen's kind and righteous actions, but as her closest cousin, she can't help but feel sorry for her cousin.

His uncle had already wronged him enough by marrying the Zhou family for the sake of Chaozhou, and now his cousin had to meet people regardless of propriety. No one is a saint, and people have selfish motives when it comes to their closest relatives.

Jiang Youchen saw that his mother still didn't express his position, so he bowed deeply towards her again and said firmly: "Please grant my request, mother."

Mr. Tian knew his son's temperament very well. Since Miss Zhou had begged him, his son would definitely not ignore it.

Ms. Tian sniffed, looked at her son and said, "Since you have agreed, let's go."

Seeing his mother nodding in agreement, Jiang Youchen turned around and left, ordered someone to fetch the horses, left Jiang Mansion and rode towards Zhou Mansion.

Ms. Zhou is terminally ill and has only a breath of leisurely energy left. She is looking forward to seeing the legendary "Jade Faced Man", the fiancé she has longed for.

　　After hearing what her parents said that Sanlang of the Jiang family had come to see her at home regardless of etiquette, Miss Zhou, who had been so ill that she had been unable to get up for several months, was actually helped by her mother to sit up, and her eyes that had been lifeless once again regained a glimmer of light.

 She weakly begged her mother to wash and dress her up.

The maid cried and brought her favorite hairpin jewelry. Mrs. Zhou carefully combed her daughter's hair. Looking at the skinny face in the mirror, Miss Zhou shed tears and said to her mother: "People call him the 'Jade Faced Man', the most handsome man. I don't want him to see me like this. After my mother washed me, , I will see him through the screen."

 Mrs. Zhou agreed to her daughter with tears in her eyes.

 Zhou Yuanwai personally led Jiang Youchen into his daughter's boudoir.

Jiang Youchen is wearing moon-white brocade clothes. He has a long body, a face like a crown of jade, and eyes like paint. He is the most standard handsome man.

As he slowly entered, all the jade treasures displayed in the boudoir of the daughter of the wealthy Zhou family seemed to have lost their luster in comparison with him.

Jiang Youchen knew that Miss Zhou was behind the screen, and he bowed politely towards the screen: "I am Jiang Youchen, the third man of the Jiang family. I have met Miss Zhou."

It wasn’t until the sound as clear as winter spring reached Miss Zhou’s ears that she came out of her shock.

She sat behind the screen, looked at the handsome and handsome man, and said slowly: "It's not in line with etiquette to ask you to come here. I'm making things difficult for you."

Jiang Youchen looked at the screen and replied: "The fate of your parents and the matchmaker's words, we should be a legitimate couple, there is nothing to be embarrassed about."

 Hearing the immortal man say that he and she "should have been husband and wife", Miss Zhou felt indescribably submissive.

　　When she learned that her father had betrothed her to the famous "Jade-Faced Man" Jiang Sangong, she was thinking about it. Everyone praised the handsomeness of Mr. Jiang, so she racked her brains to think about his appearance. Was he as handsome as Pan An in the painting? Or a handsome young man like in the play?

 She didn’t know until she saw his true face today.

Her fiancé is really more handsome than she imagined.

Such a handsome man, yet so humble, polite, gentle and considerate.

  Alas! I just blame her for her poor life and not being lucky enough to marry him.

Miss Zhou looked at the handsome fiancé with a happy smile on her lips: "Thank you for seeking medical treatment for me. Although I am not blessed to be with you, I am still satisfied."

Jiang Youchen sighed slightly and gently comforted her: "Don't be so polite to me. If you have any other wishes, just tell me. Whatever I can do for you, I will do it."

Ms. Zhou wiped away the tears of joy from her eyes and replied: "It is my last wish to see you before I leave."

 Cardamom is in its prime, and its fragrance fades away. It is a blessing in this life to meet such a husband. Although we are destined to be together, we cannot marry and become the wife of a king. We can only leave regrets by always being by our side.

 When the news of Miss Zhou's death reached Jiang Mansion, Jiang Youchen was in his study teaching Brother Xuan, the son of his late second brother, to read the Book of Songs.

Jiang Youchen heard that Miss Zhou had passed away. He put down the book in his hand and was silent for a long time.

Brother Xuan was still young and did not understand some emotions. He was reciting the "Book of Songs on Drums" with his uncle. Seeing that his uncle suddenly stopped talking, he came to him holding the book, raised his head and asked: "Uncle, 'Death and Life' What does this sentence mean when you have a good relationship, become happy with your son, hold your hand, and grow old together with your son?"

Jiang Youchen came back to his senses, touched his nephew's head, and replied: "This sentence means that when a man and a woman become husband and wife, they should respect and love each other and grow old together."

Brother Xuan asked: "Then if you marry a woman you don't really love, do you still want to live with her forever?"

Jiang Youchen replied: "Even if the person you marry is not truly loved, a responsible man should love and protect his wife and stay with her until old age."

Seeing that his nephew seemed to understand but not understand, Jiang Youchen continued to preach to him: "Every human being is born with love, but for a man, being able to shoulder the responsibility and responsibility for his wife is the most important thing. Do you understand? ?"
