Jiang Yingqiong didnât know what they were thinking, she only found Long Xiaocaiâs ideas quite unbelievable.
"Did she really go after Meng Xinian? I heard she once said that men can choose women â the pretty ones, those with good figures, good personalities â so women should also be able to choose men, to find a handsome and intelligent one, to have a better-looking son in the future."
She couldnât help but shake her head with a chuckle, "That girl not only dares to speak, but also dares to act. But what is she looking for in Xinian? Even if Xinian didnât have Little, he wouldnât be with a girl like her. Besides, how could the Meng Family agree to her having a child who would carry the Long surname?"
She found it ridiculous, but to Chiang Xiao, perhaps Long Xiaocai really planned it that way.
If the Meng Family truly cared about having a sole heir, and about continuing their lineage, if Meng Xinian was really on the deployment list, once the news came out, Old Meng and Meng Chaojun would stop at nothing to force Meng Xinian into marriage, hoping to leave a descendant for the Meng Family.
Given Long Family womenâs status, they might really think it appropriate.
Most Long Family women married well, so there were rumors that Long Family women had a strong fortune-bringing fate for their husbands.
This was something that even Long Family women firmly believed.
Thus they held such arrogance, believing that if they were willing to marry, men should happily agree.
First marry, then have a child. If the man didnât return, she could immediately go back to the Long Family with a child. What could others do? Demand she live as a widow at her husbandâs home forever?
With this plan, Long Xiaocai recklessly went to choose a man.
Chiang Xiao sneered.
Long Xiaocai did choose, and she chose her man.
But unfortunately, what Long Xiaocai didnât know is that Old Meng and Meng Chaojun are not what they used to be. No matter how much Meng Xinian is their sole heir, would they dare to force him to marry and leave descendants?
Dare to force him to marry another woman?
Moreover, Long Xiaocai really has little understanding of Meng Xinian. Does he seem like the type to be chosen freely, willing to marry just to leave a bloodline?
If he was, what did Chiang Xiao see in him?
The men in this world donât revolve around Long Family women!
"Iâll keep an eye on this matter," Li Hanzhong said to Chiang Xiao, "If itâs decided Xinian shouldnât go, I wonât let anyone use underhanded means to push him into it, but if by chance, he is selected to go..."
Chiang Xiao bit her lower lip and said, "Then thereâs no need for Uncle to do anything, just let him go."
She didnât want to use any means at this moment.
Even though she was worried and scared.
"Good child." Li Hanzhong sighed with relief and patted her on the shoulder.
Being able to say such words and make such a decision, Chiang Xiao was already very exceptional.
But Jiang Yingqiong was worried, "Hanzhong, if you have a way, itâs still better not to let Xinian go."
Li Hanzhong said, "Alright, I understand."
Chiang Xiao said, "Uncle, Iâm not trying to pry, but since Long Xiaocai already knows, if the list comes out, could you let me know?"
"I can." Li Hanzhong nodded, "Also, if Xinian is really on the list, thereâs no need to worry too much, theyâll have at least seven days of special family leave before departure."
She would rather not have those seven days of family leave.
Leaving the reception hall, Chiang Xiao carried two pillowcases sewn by Jiang Yingqiong, walking silently for a while. When she saw no one around, she stopped and signaled for Guan Tiezhu and Luo Yongsheng to follow her.
"Letâs go beat someone up now."
