157. Door-to-door propose
"Ziye!" Han Xi didn't mind, but Liu Dong'er was annoyed: "What a good little lady, do you dare to say that she is not good-looking?" Hmph, Fabao'er, your mother-in-law is not porridge for you, remember to ignore him when you grow up!"
Han Ziye looked helplessly at Brother Hao in his arms: "Brother Hao, your mother is crazy, she wants to be crazy." β
Although Brother Hao is young, he is more than a year old, and these days I have heard the two brothers also talk about this, but it is not difficult to understand Han Ziye's words: "Sister ......"
"That's right, that's my sister. Brother Hao'er, you said that when you have a sister, will your mother forget about you?" Han Ziye was all deliberate, and after making Brother Hao cry victoriously, he went out to coax him with a stupid face under Liu Dong'er's glare. After glaring at Han Ziye's back several times, Liu Dong'er turned around and said softly to Han Xi: "Xi'er, I asked the doll, although your body bones are a little weak, it's no problem to take care of it." It's ......" "Sister-in-law, I know, it's hard to get pregnant in the future, you can rest assured that I can think of it." β
People like the Han family and the Gu family, no matter how many children they have, they will be regarded as rare treasures.
It's a pity that Han Xi's body bones are not good, and the last time he gave birth to Brother Pan'er, he was completely injured. After raising these days, I can't wait for my body to be idle, and I won't be idle to be able to conceive this child. I thought that this fetus would have a doll by her side to help take care of and recuperate, and it would definitely be fine. But who would have thought that Zhou Diewu would notice it, and it would be so ruthless as soon as she made a move.
What's more, listening to the doll, Han Xi is really extremely dangerous this time, and it is thanks to the fact that she has been pregnant for more than nine months, so it will not be dangerous to give birth a few days early. If it is a few days ago, not to mention whether the child can be saved, saying that the ban is the result of one corpse and two lives.
Of course, these words must be hidden from Han Xi, although she is in danger now, she doesn't have to scare her with these words, the doll is a straight-bellied person, it can be said that in addition to Han Xi, when others ask her about the details, she has said it like a few treasures, including the Gu family master who overtook her later, and she also knows the environment at the time.
Han Xi followed Liu Dong'er's gaze to look at her daughter, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Yes, she is my magic weapon, even if she looks embarrassed, she is also a magic weapon." β
"Xi'er, you are really ...... It's really the same as your brother!" Glancing at Han Xi with disgust, Liu Dong'er's tone was a little distressed: "Heart and liver magic weapon, look at your mother and your mother-in-law, they both dislike you for not being good-looking, and your aunt will not dislike it, otherwise you will be a daughter to your aunt?"
Giving birth to a daughter is really different from giving birth to a son, a daughter is a pampered guest in the family, and the implication is that the daughter will stay at home for a short time. Under normal circumstances, the daughter will first propose marriage when she is more than ten years old, and she will also get married. The reason why people in the capital will marry earlier is because Shuo Fang is getting taller and taller, and there are not a few people who marry at the age of thirteen or fourteen.
Han Xi never thought about letting her daughter marry so early, but since she gave birth to her daughter, she has always been thinking about it in her heart. No matter how good the magic weapon is, it is necessary to marry, rather than not knowing which bad boy is cheap, it is not to find someone who knows the root and bottom line as soon as possible.
But Liu Dong'er was the most surprised when he heard Han Xi say this: "Are you willing to make such a small urine first?"
"What's there to be reluctant to?, my daughter is not the eldest daughter-in-law. β
"Huh?" Liu Dong'er is even more strange, it stands to reason that the Gu family's family is higher than the Han family, although it is a little down-and-out now, but with the death of the old lady of the Gu family, presumably the Gu family's future interest will not be bad. What's more, the second young master of the Gu family's leg disease has improved greatly, and I am afraid that in two or three years, he will be like a mortal. At that time, the second young master of the Gu family can also enter the office, but for the time being, there is only Han Ziye on the Han family's side.
Of course, it will be forbidden in the future, and the three little brothers seem to be good now, and it is difficult to say what will happen in the future.
"I don't want to be my eldest daughter-in-law, so how can I be willing to be a magic weapon? When I first married into the Gu family, it was my happiest time. Because of his leg disease, he basically doesn't go out, and he stays in the study with me all day to read, and maybe goes to the garden for a stroll, which is very pleasant every day. β
Han Xi looked back a little, and there was a smile on his face: "At that time, there were grandfathers and fathers-in-law in the Gu family, and no matter how bad it was, there was a good boss. There are my mother-in-law and the sister-in-law in the past, and my lover and I are like two beloved children, who just need to enjoy life and worry about other things. β
"Everyone has their own thoughts, I know a lot of salaries and the idea of being in charge of the middle feed, and the house is falling apart. β
In general, Han Xi's nature is very good, although it is not suitable to be a housewife, but it is not a temper that is difficult with salary. If the family is safe all the way, it is extremely pleasant to have such a daughter-in-law, because she will not talk back to her mother-in-law, nor will she have any conflicts with her sister-in-law, even if she is bullied and ruthless, at most she will wipe her tears behind someone's back, and she will not take the initiative to make trouble.
But on the other hand, once Han Xi encounters some sudden states at home, she can't deal with it. Just like now, all of the Gu family's back house is taken care of by the Gu family's wife, and Han Xi doesn't have to worry about it at all.
"Sister-in-law, I also know that my brother thinks I have a soft personality, although he didn't say it, but I feel it. β
"Xi'er, don't think about it, if your brother knows that he has been wronged, he will feel very sorry for you. β
"I know, my brother hates iron and steel, and his porridge has never been a weak person, but a person like your mother and sister-in-law, who is upright and capable, and can stand up for the school in times of crisis. "Really, Han Xi is not stupid at all, but the nature is over there, once he encounters an emergency, he usually panics and acts first, and he really doesn't know what to do.
"Everyone has a nature, but there is no need to change sharply. I think my brother-in-law is most distressed about you Xi'er, not to mention, the Gu family's wife has the best body and bones, Xi'er, you can still put aside the housekeeper's affairs in the future and take care of the two children wholeheartedly. β
Unexpectedly, Han Xi shook his head: "No, I have grown up, and I am no longer a little lady who lives on my mother and brother all day long." I have sons and daughters, and I can't be as weak as I used to. β
"Xi'er?" These words made Liu Dong'er really surprised.
"I've thought about it, and when I get better, I have to learn from my mother-in-law how to be a feeder. As for babysitting, I can't keep both children with me either. Just like what you said, sister-in-law, my nature is over there, if it's a daughter, it's fine, if it's a son like me, what should I do in the future? He can not have a capable brother to protect him for the rest of his life. β
Liu Dong'er looked at Han Xi in a daze, and felt that the sentence "being a mother is strong" made the most sense.
"People say that my mother-in-law is a very bad person, but I know that she is a very kind person. Those excessive actions were really deliberately made by her in order to protect her family. My nature is unclear, but I hope that at least my brother can be stronger in the future, not like me, and the most woman should not be like a lover. To put it bluntly, my lover and I have been spoiled since childhood, and although our nature is good, it really doesn't apply to the Dingli genre. β
"Xi'er......" Liu Dong'er couldn't help but sigh: "You have really grown up!"
"Well, I have to learn to grow up. Sister-in-law, you see I have a daughter with a heart and a heart, if I don't learn to grow up, what if she marries someone and is oppressed by her in-laws in the future? At least, I want to be her constant backup!"
Liu Dong'er had just prepared a speech to praise her, but her heart moved, and this was ...... Something seems wrong?
"Okay, Xi'er! You also said that you would give me the magic weapon of heart and liver as your daughter-in-law, but you suddenly said that you would be oppressed by your mother-in-law's family. Xi'er, you must be mindful!"
Han Xi was a little shocked, with a dumbfounded expression, he really didn't know how to argue. God knows, she really doesn't have that meaning.
Liu Dong'er was originally trying to tease her, but when she saw her helpless look, she couldn't help laughing: "Flutter, Xi'er, if you want to learn to grow up, remember to learn a little badly." β
"Sister-in-law, you!"
Because Han Xi was not just confined this time, even though he was out of confinement, he was still lying in bed to recuperate. The wound on her abdomen had healed a lot, and the doll told the Gu family that she would be able to get into the carriage and return to the capital after a few more days.
At this time, something quite unexpected happened.
Before, due to the forced situation, the old man of the Gu family abandoned the Gu family with a letter of resignation, but now he understands, but he realizes that things are far from so easy.
Although this letter of resignation was written by force, this black and white letter is naturally recognized. Mrs. Gu was really abandoned, but she could divorce her wife and wait for leisure, she only needed a letter of resignation, but it was not so idle to welcome Mrs. Gu back again.
In the hot spring village, Liu Dong'er held the letter in one hand and covered her abdomen with the other and laughed so much that she almost couldn't catch her breath.
"Dong'er......" Han Ziye's face twitched, and he reminded Liu Dong'er most helplessly: "It's not right for you to sit back and watch like this." β
Liu Dong'er didn't want to pay attention to him, and continued to laugh while reading the letter by herself. It's really not that she is deliberately sitting back and not helping, or that she really doesn't care about the weather, it's really because it's too funny.
"Ahem, well, I think it's the funniest thing I do. By the way, our Han family, as the in-laws of the Gu family, will definitely be able to receive the wedding card, and we will go together when the time comes?" Han Ziye covered his smiling face with a cough, but the full smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden.
"Go, that's going to go. Holding back a smile, Liu Dong'er pretended to be grim: "I really didn't expect to see the Gu family master and the Gu family's wife get married in this life." β
"I didn't expect it, and what I didn't expect more than us should be the second young master of the Gu family, right? Seeing my parents get married, tsk, this kind of experience is not something that ordinary people can have. Han Ziye's face was narrow, obviously he was also looking forward to this sensational wedding banquet in the capital.
Speaking of this, I have to go back to the time when the Zhou family was just resolved.
At that time, in order to deal with the Zhou family, several parties were united, but foreign envoys made a lot of efforts. But I never expected that after the Zhou family was settled, the foreign envoy proposed a matter that made everyone look sideways.
They want to bring Mrs. Gu back to a foreign country.
As soon as these words came out, the old man of the Gu family couldn't hold back, in his cognition, the wife of the Gu family was his daughter-in-law, the mother of his son, the grandmother of his grandson, and the Gu family could not or lacked the housewife.
The foreign envoy of the Ke'er family also said that the letter of resignation has been issued, and the wife of the Gu family will have nothing to do with the Gu family in the future, and the wife of the Gu family has restored the name of her youth, the lord of the county.
In fact, the wife of the Gu family was originally the daughter of a foreign lord, and she should be a princess rather than a county lord. At the beginning, the father of the Gu family sent his daughter to this dynasty, the original intention was to make peace, the saint did not take a fancy to the Gu family at that time, and happened to hear that the foreign lord had seven sons and three daughters, and felt that the Gu family wife was a good descendant, so he gave her the title of the county lord of Huanting, and then climbed with the Gu family.
Therefore, the foreign county lord mentioned by the noble ladies of the capital is really inaccurate. The wife of the Gu family is a foreign princess, but the name of the county lord is given by the saint.
The unfortunate old man of the Gu family was very smooth to get the woman back, but now he still has to suffer these things.
Fortunately, under the mediation of many parties, especially under the persuasion of the second young master of the Gu family who wanted to cry without tears, the wife of the Gu family subdued the foreign envoys, and only said that if the master of the Gu family wanted her to enter the Gu family again, she had to show her heart. And the so-called heart is to remarry.
Speaking of which, the old man of the Gu family could not abandon the wife of the Gu family at the beginning, because when the old lady of the Gu family passed away in the past, the wife of the Gu family kept filial piety for her for three years. And a woman who has been filial to her elders for the sake of honor must not be abandoned for any reason. "Han Ziye is right, but no one is calculating these at this time, and maybe everyone is waiting to see the joke of the Gu family.
"No, it's only been a few months since the old lady of the Gu family passed away, how can you get married at this time?"
In the filial piety period, let alone getting married, even if it is a guest at a big banquet, it is not allowed.
"Dong'er thinks about it, saying that it is to marry again, but everyone knows that the master of the Gu family will not solemnly go from marriage to engagement and then give a dowry as he has done in twenty or thirty years...... It won't. Although it is a remarriage, it is just a formality. When the day comes, it's time to invite a few of your best friends to have a meal together. Do you still think that they are going to wear their red uniforms again and get married?"
Looking at Liu Dong'er most narrowly, Han Ziye would not report her, and he was extremely surprised when he first learned about it. ran directly to the second young master of the Gu family, and asked several times in a row, and the second young master of the Gu family was embarrassed to ask before he could figure things out.
Ahem, he won't say anything about this kind of, no!
"Is that just the case?" Hearing the environment clearly, Liu Dong'er was inevitably a little disappointed.
"Ahem, if the old man of the Gu family really revives the marriage as usual, he will really have no face to see people in the future. Han Ziye smiled evilly, can he really say that he is also looking forward to it?, it's not bad now, the Gu family doesn't have many relatives, and the Han family will definitely be invited. Even if he didn't receive the wedding card, he would go to join in this enthusiasm, and the Gu family couldn't drive him away at that time, right?
Well, he recognized that he was just sitting back and not being saved......
The day of great joy will soon come, and as Han Ziye said, the Gu family did not make a big deal. In fact, if it weren't for the special environment, it stands to reason that you shouldn't pick this time to do a happy event, this Gu family is easy, although Han Xi said that she has the heart to learn to manage the middle feed, but she is not in good health now, not to mention that even if her body is good, she will not be able to get started all of a sudden.
Mrs. Gu must return to the Gu family, but she can't come back without a name. In addition to the fixed opinions on the foreign side, the Gu family's own status as the county lord did not allow her to do this. The Gu family must give a different explanation, so it is a very woman's way to hold a wedding banquet quickly.
On the day of the Gu family's wedding banquet, Han Xi was already able to get out of bed and walk around, of course, her medicine had not been cut off, and she couldn't work for a long time, but fortunately, although the Gu family master was few, there were many people. In addition, this is not a serious marriage, and there are not many guests invited, and they are all their own people, so naturally there are not so many things.
The Han family must be invited, not to mention the relationship between the in-laws, just this time when the Gu family was wandering, the Han family did not hesitate to help each other, and when Han Xi was injured and dying, the Han family spent a lot of medicinal materials to help Han Xi pass this pass, and the Gu family could not help but admit it.
Of course, the Gu family didn't know that those so-called caring medicinal materials were not purchased with huge sums of money, but were taken out of Liu Dong'er's empty space. But it doesn't matter, because Liu Dong'er covers everything to the best, not to mention that she does buy some expensive medicinal materials every year. Occasionally, it is the dowry money, but most of the time it is the Han family's money.
The Han family naturally knew about these things, not only did they not blame Liu Dong'er, but on the contrary, they strongly supported them. Especially the eldest wife of the Han family, she knows very well that there are not a few medicinal materials given to Han Xi to the second young master of the Gu family from Liu Dong'er, even if it is the money of the Han family, she has to be grateful.
This time, for example.
As for women, no matter how they get married, whether they are doing well or not, having a strong background in the mother's industry is always beneficial and harmless.
Regarding Liu Dong'er, Mrs. Han is very emotional. She still remembers the signature she asked for.
Wangfu Yun ...... All children and grandchildren......
has Han Xi's signature, although there are thorns, but there is Zhu Zi's mutual assistance, and the descendants are all ......
Thinking of that sentence, the eldest lady of the Han family couldn't help laughing. Han Xi is indeed a descendant now, but Liu Dong'er really doesn't seem to have a daughter. At the beginning, when she was Huai Hao's brother, Liu Donger thought that she would definitely be able to give birth to a daughter, but in the end, it was just a disappointment. Speaking of which, the eldest wife of the Han family doesn't care much about this matter herself, although Han Xi is a confidant, she is dozens of times more worried about her.
If Liu Dong'er is serious and can give birth to a daughter, the eldest wife of the Han family will naturally be happy in her heart. But if you can't give birth, that's it. I have heard of not being able to give birth to a son and being looked down upon by my in-laws, but I have never heard of it, and I don't like it if I can't give birth to a daughter.
I'm afraid that all the Han family, plus the Liu family, didn't care about Liu Dong'er's lack of a daughter, but it happened that she was ......
"Mother, what are you snickering at?"
The eldest wife of the Han family settled down, they had already arrived at the Gu family, it was really not good to be fascinated at this time, snickering?
"It's just a ritual, but it's weird to look at. Thinking about Liu Dong'er's weakness, the eldest wife of the Han family did not directly say what she thought about the right talent: "It's funny to be able to see such a new thing when you are old." Liu Dong'er covered her mouth and smiled, there are really not many guests invited by the Gu family this time, this is not a serious happy event, friends have this kind of mind like the Han family, but everyone who received the wedding card basically came with their families. Like the Han family, not only the three adults came, but even the three little brothers came together, and at this time, they were arguing with Han Xi to see the little sister. "Mother, Dong'er, it's just a matter of thinking about it in your heart, so you can say it...... If the Gu family master hears it, will he still go out in the future?" Although he said the words of persuasion, when Han Ziye said it in this tone, he only felt very funny, and he really didn't care at all.
But the old man of the Gu family......
Liu Dong'er held back her laughter, so she didn't laugh at the banquet. Look at the other people, most of them are so demeanor, this wedding banquet, although it is not very grand, I am afraid that it is the happiest wedding banquet for the guests.
After the wedding banquet, the old man of the Gu family immediately thought that his deceased father's blessing was a pinched word, first of all, his life without leaving home. After a full year, he only went out a few times, but he would not go out until he had to.
As soon as the matter on the Gu family's side was over, Liu Dong'er received a message from someone sent by Liu Zhang's family, and thought that something had happened to the Liu family, but he didn't want to, but it was the end of the imperial examination, and Brother Rui'er's grades were very good, and he entered the palace examination.
It was also at this moment that Liu Dong'er remembered this fork, and she was troubled at the moment, she really left such an important matter behind.
"What is this for? Brother Rui was included in the imperial examination, and you can't help much. β
"That's right, but Brother Rui is my brother-in-law, so I can't help much, and I can pray for him. Liu Dong'er looked troubled, too many things have happened these days, almost one after another. When she learned that Brother Rui was going to be included in the imperial examination, she was very concerned, and she didn't want to wait for the time to come, but she forgot about it spotlessly.
"Brother Rui is very good, he has entered the palace examination, I don't think I had this ability at the beginning. β
Some looked at Han Ziye suspiciously, Liu Dong'er was also talking about the imperial examination, most of the things were reported to her by Han Ziye, and some were inadvertently talked about when talking to Liu Zhang.
"What is the imperial examination like, Ziye, tell me about it. β
Seeing that Liu Dong'er had fun, Han Ziye naturally wouldn't hide it, which was no secret.
The imperial examination has been held since ancient times, and this dynasty has its own imperial examination courtesy. Like the previous life, it seems that these things are very strict, and the previous dynasty was already known for being strict, not to mention the imperial examination, and even the constraints on women were deep.
Fortunately, this dynasty is not the previous dynasty, and this dynasty is still very lenient about scholars.
The imperial examination of this dynasty has several parts of dividends. First of all, there are children every year, and children are just a term, not necessarily children's talents. Generally speaking, protΓ©gΓ©s with average grades in government schools can be audited by children. Like Brother Rui, he should have been eight or nine years old when he passed the Tongsheng exam.
Tongsheng is more leisurely to take the test, except for a name after the exam, there is no actual strength, and the name of Tongsheng is not really without benefits, which must be included in the spring but must be tested first.
And those who have experienced the review of the spring are Xiucai. For children, it is much more difficult to take the Xiucai exam, but it is not particularly difficult. For example, Han Ziye was listed in the Spring Festival for the first time, and he was admitted to the show, and his ranking was quite high.
Xiucai is more difficult to test than children, but on the contrary, Xiucai's role is also greater. The court is polite, and those who have talents and fame can not kneel when they see officials, and their families can reduce money and food, and at the same time, they are not allowed to be used as a population business. And generally admitted to Xiucai, and there is no talent to continue the exam, it is selected to be a school gentleman, if you have some ability, you can also be a tolerance in the official office, but it is also good.
This spring is followed by autumn.
The test Xiucai just mentioned, that is, the spring festival, is once a year, and the time is generally set around the beginning of spring, so it got the name of the spring festival. But this is not the case with Qiuqiu.
If nothing else, the autumn festival is once every three years, and the time is indeed in autumn, but not the beginning of autumn, but after the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's still early, and if it's something to do, it might be even later.
As for the difficulty, there is no need to say more, the autumn is bound to be more difficult than the spring, and it is not a little difficult.
The year before last, Brother Rui was going to intervene, but at that time, because Han Ziye said something to the second master of the Liu family, for the sake of Brother Rui'er's future, he was not included in that autumn festival, but he would not abandon it, not to mention that since listening to Han Ziye's advice, the second master of the Liu family specially took Brother Rui to some places and practiced his communication skills fiercely, and I heard that the progress is great.
"Didn't Qiu Yu directly select the champion?"
"Of course not. β
The autumn season is to confirm the academic environment of the students, and they will also evaluate the famous grades based on their respective grades. This ranking is divided into first, second, and third, and after the top three, the list will be lost, and those who will lose the list will have to wait for another three years.
The students in the first class are admitted to the temple examination, and the top three are selected by the Holy Lord in person.
Naturally, this is the champion, the leader, and the flower.
"How many people are in the first class?" Liu Dong'er really admires Brother Rui at this time, no matter what, those who can enter the first class are already very remarkable. As for champions and the like, I don't dare to expect it.
"Generally speaking, the first class is twelve people, this matter is not accurate, and if you meet excellent talents by chance, you can also have more candidates. Like, it's like fifteen people. Han Ziye paused, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "I was twenty-seven at the time, and I entered the second grade, but I didn't miss the palace test." I wanted to take the exam again after three years, but due to the death of my father, it was delayed. Later, I became a parent, although I also have knowledge, but it is different from when I was young, and I also responded to the lack of external release. β
It is to enter the top three to get an official position, of course, what is the specific official position is another matter, under normal circumstances, the top three will not be a real shortage, the second class will be released as a real vacancy, and the first class is to stay in the capital.
Like Brother Rui, who was the only sister-in-law in the family, he was still young, and he entered the first class, so it was basically a sure thing to stay in the capital. It's just that I'm afraid that the saint will think that he is young and will not give him a real shortage.
"No, you said that the temple examination was personally examined by the Holy One?......"
More than two months ago, the Holy Monk gave the throne to the Imperial Grandson, so the Holy Emperor should now be titled Emperor Taizu, and the Imperial Grandson is the Holy Grandson.
It's just that the grandson of the emperor in the past, the current saint, is about the same age as Brother Jie, and no matter how good his knowledge is, he can memorize the Analects. It's really embarrassing to take the school knowledge test in person.
"Naturally, it was personally reviewed by Emperor Taizu, and now the affairs in the court are handled by Emperor Taizu himself. β
This kind of thing, if you say it by chance, you will inevitably say it wrong, which is also due to the fact that you don't have a guard at home, if it's outside, Han Ziye will still pay attention to it. Speaking of the title, the Han family hoped that as soon as they returned to the capital, they would order someone to change the title, and they didn't want something to happen, so such inconsequential trivial matters were delayed.
It was mentioned again a few days ago, and now the descendants of the Han family have also changed their words.
The eldest wife of the Han family became the old lady of the Han family, Han Ziye was the master of the Han family, Liu Donger was the wife of the Han family, and Brother Jie, Brother Tai and Brother Hao were divided into the eldest young master, the second young master and the third young master.
In the first two days, everyone was not very used to it, but after these days, they are used to hearing it.
In fact, not only the Han family, but also the Gu family has changed its title. The old lady of the Gu family has passed away, and the Gu family has no older generation. Therefore, the old man and the wife of the Gu family were promoted to the old lady and the old lady, the second young master of the Gu family and Han Xi were the old master and wife of the Gu family, Brother Pan was the rightful young master, and the warm heart was the young lady.
By the way, warm heart is Han Xi's magic weapon little daughter, and she is deeply loved by the whole family. As for what Han Xi said to Liu Dong'er about kissing and kissing, neither the Gu family nor the Han family vetoed it, because the children were too young, they only said it inside, and they were not officially engaged. No one knows what will happen in the future.
"Dong'er, after Brother Rui'er's palace exam, it won't be long before he is expected to take office. You may not be able to join in this palace test, but there is something you can organize. β
was a little puzzled by these words, Liu Dong'er thought hard and didn't know what he should prepare: "What's the matter?"
Indeed, it is time to think about his marriage.
"Look at my brain, alas, I'm going back to my mother's house tomorrow. Han Ziye is ambiguous, now they are still in the filial piety period, even Han Ziye has nothing to do all day, if Liu Dong'er goes back to his parents' house, he is happy to accompany him: "Do you want to bring all the buddies?" After a moment's hesitation, Liu Dong'er nodded: "It's okay, bring them all, let's start early, and we can come back to have dinner with my mother." β
The time of the palace test was on the day of the winter solstice, which was two days, so when Liu Dong'er and Han Ziye took their three little brothers to Liu's house, they happened to meet him.
"Sister, brother-in-law. β
After all, Liu Dong'er and Brother Rui haven't seen each other for a long time, and after returning to the capital before, they met in a hurry, but they separated without saying a word. Before Liu Donger got married, he felt very sorry for this younger brother. For Brother Rui, among the brothers and sisters, the closest one must be the twin sister Lei'er, and then Liu Dong'er.
"Brother Rui is so old, it seems that I am really old. β
Han Ziye was about to say a few words of greeting, but he didn't want to hear Liu Dong'er say this, and he was choked.
"Sister, don't say that, if you're old, what can your father and mother do?" Brother Rui was also a little funny, his impression of Liu Dong'er stopped at caring for her big sister when she was a child. Because the age difference between the sisters and brothers is a full eight years, Liu Donger has the experience of being reborn, and about Brother Rui'er, she will occasionally come to see her as a son.
"Daddy and Mom are already old. Dong'er carefully examined Brother Rui'er: "It's okay if you're older, let my sister tell you that you are a good friend, and hurry up to give birth to a big fat grandson for your father." β
Brother Rui is just a teenager, and there is no shame when he hears this: "Sister, I'm ...... My brother hasn't gotten married yet, so I'm not in a hurry. β
"Brother?" was stunned for a moment, and Liu Dong'er thought of who Brother Rui was talking about: "Did you say Brother Xiang'er?
"I haven't heard of it. Honestly spoke and replied: "Although my brother is a concubine, my brother should have asked him to marry first." Sister, you can go and ask Mother. β
Han Ziye watched Brother Rui tear the topic away with amusement, and he was a little happy in his heart. Three years is enough to make Brother Rui mature a lot, at least he has more eyes, isn't it? Some people will be honest children, but Han Ziye knows that it is difficult for honest people to mix in the officialdom. Besides, it's good to be good to your family, and don't play tricks on your family, and it doesn't hurt to have more eyes, isn't it?
Leaving Han Ziye to talk to Brother Rui, Liu Donger took the three little brothers to the back house.
At this time, Liu Zhang's family was not idle, and he was continuing to ask the maids to hurry up and make some delicious pastries, and ordered someone to make a pot of high-quality royal jelly tea, and waited for Liu Dong'er to bring the little brothers over.
The eldest of the three little brothers, Brother Jie, is only six years old, and the youngest Brother Hao is only two years old. Liu Dong'er only had time to ask Brother Jie to take care of his younger brothers, so he went to talk to Liu Zhang's family.
This is naturally true, even if parents are the best for each child, but human nature is like this, and young children must be more caring, and therefore, the eldest daughter may have the characteristics that young sons and young daughters do not have.
"Okay, Dong'er is right. Liu Zhang's smile, her life has been the best over the years, the second master of the Liu family has put most of his energy on Brother Rui, and some of them are on the students in the official school, and all the affairs of the family are handed over to Liu Zhang's, as for those beautiful concubines, they really ignore it.
In fact, the second master of the Liu family is really not a thug, he has many disadvantages, but those disadvantages are basically shared by ordinary people. He is patriarchal, but he is also very distressed about his daughter. At the beginning, the concubine killed his wife, on the one hand, because he did not have a son-in-law, and on the other hand, it was not because of the nature of Liu Zhang's unsupportable?
Fortunately, everything has passed, and the Liu family is the best now. Liu Man'er is gone, the only cousin has always had no sense of existence in the Liu family, plus his knowledge is not good, his nature is a little wooden, his biological mother is not around, and his mother is a person who only cares about her offspring, although she is not mean to him, but there is no care at all.
"Mother, just now I told Brother Rui about his marriage, but Brother Rui reported to me that Brother Xiang is not engaged yet?"
Hearing Liu Dong'er's words, Liu Zhang's was a little stunned: "Brother Xiang'er...... Ah, Brother Xiang, yes, he's not engaged. β
Looking at Liu Zhang's family a little helplessly, Liu Dong'er dared to take care of it, at the moment when Liu Zhang's stopped, she must have forgotten who Brother Xiang was! This is the nature of Liu Zhang's family, people who don't care about it may be things, she can treat it as if it doesn't exist, if it's like Liu Man'er in the past, it often shakes in front of her eyes, it's just that, she can remember this person. It just so happened that Brother Xiang himself was a little determined to hide himself, which directly led to the fact that if no one was determined to mention it, Liu Zhang's family would not remember that there was such a person in the family!
"Mother, Brother Xiang is the son of Shu Zong, although my father doesn't care about him, but he is also the eldest young master of the Liu family. No matter what he does, his marriage still can't be careless, at least it must be seen in general. β
Liu Zhang frowned: "I didn't treat him badly, and I didn't mean to treat him harshly." But this marriage ...... Nobody came to tell me about it. β
If she hadn't known the nature of Liu Zhang's family earlier, Liu Dong'er would really think that she was intentional. No one said? This Brother Xiang is a man, not a woman, could it be that Liu Zhang's is waiting for others to come to the door to propose?
Don't make trouble, even if it's Brother Rui, no one will come to the door to propose marriage, at most, a few words are vaguely mentioned on top of the banquet. In the final analysis, what this dynasty advocates is the idea of respecting men, and there will always be no woman who will stick it shamelessly. What's more, even if someone posted it, do you dare to ask for it?
"Mother, I have filial piety now, and I can't be included in those banquets, so you have to reveal the tone first, at least give Brother Xiang'er's marriage a given, and when the spring of the next year begins, you can let him get married and pass it away." β
To tell the truth, with the nature of Liu Zhang's family, Liu Dong'er really didn't feel at ease to leave Rui Ge'er's marriage to her to deal with. Fortunately, it has been two years since the old lady of the Han family passed away, and although this filial piety is said to be three years, it is actually twenty-seven months. The old lady of the Han family was not big enough last year, and by the end of March of the next year, this filial piety will pass, and then Liu Dong'er will be included in the banquet openly and honestly, and he will be in charge of Brother Rui'er's marriage.
