Chapter 160: Rejection

Second Mrs. Xu was really speechless this time. The pen and the fun and the pavilion have all seen www.biquge.info three rooms of the Qin family, so what's the use of quibbling? She thought that she had even said the suspicion between Mrs. Xu and the Xu family's sister-in-law, and there was no need to hide it anymore.

It turned out that Master Xu's guilt for Xu's sister was at fault. Because the Xu family has always had a knot in her heart about the easy marriage back then, but now that she has seen with her own eyes that Qin Bai and the Niu family are in love with each other, and she is also a person with children and grandchildren, what else can she think? Even if she had a little bit of careful thought, it had already dissipated without a trace in Qin Bai's cold etiquette, right? She just felt sorry for Qin Bai, because she had never kept her promise back then, and because she was going to marry into the Qin family, Qin Song was selfish, and she actually drove her younger brother out of the house, which led to the death of Queen Qin with regret, and Qin Bai went away to the northwest for 30 years. What she and the Xu family once owed Qin Bai really couldn't be repaid.

Xu revealed the bitterness in his heart to his brother Master Xu, and Master Xu had an idea because of this. Since there was an accident in the marriage contract between the younger sister and Qin Bai, and it has not been consummated, and the sister's daughter has not succeeded in marrying back to the Xu family, then let the third generation of the Qin family and the Xu family take over this broken marriage, and the two families will continue to be Qin Jinzhi, okay? Master Xu proposed to the Xu family to ask for his eldest grandson Xu Zheng to marry Qin Bai's granddaughter Qin Hanzhen. If this matter can be achieved, it can be regarded as making up for the regret that the marriage contract between Xu and Qin Bai could not be fulfilled.

Xu had hesitated, because Xu Zheng was much older than Qin Hanzhen, and the two did not match, and he didn't know if Qin Bai would agree. She really didn't have the face to open her mouth.

Master Xu took this matter and said that when Qin Hanzhen was older, he would come to the door to propose marriage. As for Xu Zheng's age, it doesn't matter. The grandson can concentrate on his studies to prepare for the imperial examination, so he does not have to let mundane things such as marrying his own children distract him. Besides, since the Xu family has the intention to marry the granddaughter of the Qin family, he must always show sincerity in order to impress Qin Bai. Although Xu Rong in the second room is more suitable for Qin Hanzhen in terms of age, Xu Rong is far less outstanding than Xu Zheng, and he may not be able to enter Qin Bai's eyes. And judging from Qin Hanzhen's identity as the granddaughter of Yongjiahou, Xu Rong's father's official position is also a little low, and he can't climb high. No matter how you look at it, Xu Zheng is more weighty.

Master Xu persuaded the Xu family, but if this family business wants to be done, it will take a lot of effort, and the first obstacle they encountered is Mrs. Xu, who loves Xu Zheng the most. She has already seen a few ladies for her grandson, but there are no girls from the Qin family among them, if it weren't for the fact that her grandson is still young and is not in a hurry to get married for the time being, she is afraid that she would have given her favorite ladies a long time ago. Now Meng Yi told her that if she wanted to give Xu Zheng to the girl in the third room of the Qin family, she would still come back from the northwest countryside, even if Qin Han was really the granddaughter of Yongjiahou, she would never agree! Besides, Mrs. Xu and her sister-in-law had already had a disagreement, so they were naturally not happy to marry this family. Even if in the end, Master Xu relied on his prestige as the head of the family to force his wife to nod, Mrs. Xu was unhappy, and saying a few words in front of people was enough to anger the third room of the Qin family and make this family affair completely impossible.

Master Xu thought of a way, since his old wife loves her grandson the most, as long as her grandson Xu Zheng takes the initiative to ask her to marry Qin Hanzhen, even if the old wife is unhappy, she will eventually nod. And if you want Xu Zheng to take the initiative to open this mouth, he has to be willing to do it himself, so Master Xu discussed with the Xu family and found an excuse for Xu Zheng to go to the Chengenhou Mansion and meet Qin Hanzhen. Xu felt that Qin Han was really delicate and quiet, and he should be the type that his nephew Xu Zheng liked, and he should be very sure of this family business.

This is the reason why the four brothers and sisters of the Xu family came to the door on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival. And Mrs. Xu suddenly sent someone to pick up the four children in the afternoon, also because the news leaked, she was angry, so she didn't save face for her sister-in-law at all.

When Second Mrs. Xu said this, she sighed in her heart. The two of them are also from a scholarly family, but sometimes she really can't understand the thoughts of her sister-in-law. Even if the eldest uncle is a little biased towards his aunt's wife, he has not treated the eldest sister-in-law and her children badly, right? Why did she want to drag her feet every time she encountered a marriage with the Qin family? If she was not willing to let her children talk about marriage with the Qin family, she could have asked the second room to be bare, but she was only happy to make things twist up and make her relatives feel embarrassed.

Why bother? The Xu family can have today's scenery, in the final analysis, it is still thanks to the Qin family! Thanks to the blessing of the Qin family, the blessing of the aunt and Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Xu has never suffered in her in-law's family, and if she is not grateful, how can she give people a face?

Niu didn't bother to pay attention to what Second Lady Xu was thinking, she only didn't understand one thing: "Since it was the Xu family who wanted to ask to marry my granddaughter, why did the eldest sister-in-law still order someone to dress up my granddaughter according to Brother Zheng'er's liking? This is for fear that Brother Zheng will not like my granddaughter and refuse to go to his grandmother to speak? This is also too underestimating people! Since you ask to marry, you have to make a begging appearance." Why did you ask my granddaughter to please him?

Second Mrs. Xu smiled and said: "Although I don't know what's going on, but I dare to pack a ticket, with the temperament of our aunt's wife, I can't do this kind of thing." Even if Brother Zheng is willing to beg his grandmother to let go, he has to ask Yongjiahou and the old sister to nod him, and ask the third girl and her father to nod before he can settle the family matter. Where does he have the qualifications to take Qiao? Do you want other girls to please him? Don't have such a big face! This matter must be the people at the bottom of their own minds, thinking about Mrs. Gu's thoughts, they will quietly do some little tricks, thinking that if the third girl is liked by Brother Zheng'er, Brother Zheng takes the initiative to run to his grandmother to speak, Mrs. Gu will not have to come out of this, and her heart can be fulfilled. In the end, it's just the absurdity of the people below. I'll go back and tell our aunt that whoever came up with the idea will be tied up and let the old sister punish her. ”

Niu Shi believed this in his heart, pouted and said: "Even if the girls make their own opinions, it is the fault of the sister-in-law's lax control." I've heard that the big girls in front of her are very powerful, and they are very good at making things happen on weekdays, but now they can be regarded as having seen it. I don't need to tie up anyone to beat me, as long as the eldest sister-in-law is stricter in the future, don't let her girl harm our third room again. ”

Second Mrs. Xu smiled dryly and agreed.

The doubts in Niu's heart were solved, and it was much easier. She was a little curious: "Brother Zheng'er saw our sister Sang that day, what did you say when you went back? ”

Second Mrs. Xu was a little hesitant: "This ......"

Seeing this, Niu's face sank: "What's the matter?

"How could it be?" Second Lady Xu said busily, "The third girl is so likable, how can Brother Zheng dislike it?" He has already told his grandmother, and the third girl is very fond of his temperament and appearance, begging his grandmother to nod." His grandmother thought that the two children were too different in age, and she was afraid that Brother Zheng would be wronged in the future, so she refused to let go. Because she asked Sister Xiu and Sister Lan, she learned that the third girl read less and only recognized a few words, so she refused to agree more and more. Brother Zheng said, the third girl is still young now, it doesn't matter if she knew few words in the past, just read more books in the future, the most important thing is that the two have a compatible temperament. Therefore, our eldest master said that he should come to this mansion more often and get along with the three girls more. If the temperament is really suitable, then Brother Zheng and his grandmother can no longer go against the wishes of their grandson. Now the three grandparents and grandchildren are fighting in the ring, and they can't settle down for a while. ”

In fact, Mrs. Xu still has one sentence that she doesn't dare to say, that is, Mrs. Xu dislikes Qin Hanzhen, not only because she heard that she has little reading and rough writing, but also because she is the eldest daughter who lost her mother and was raised by her grandmother, but her grandmother is a vulgar village girl. Mrs. Xu thinks that Qin Hanzhen, who was raised by the Niu family, is not worthy of the eldest grandson of the Xu family, a scholarly family. It's just that if this is the case, how can Second Lady Xu dare to say it? I'm afraid that if I show a little meaning, the Niu family will turn her face.

Niu Shi looked inexplicable: "What do you mean by this? When did our sister Sang recognize fewer words? She has been reading with our master since she was a child, and she is very familiar with "Three", "Hundred" and "Thousand", and she has also read "Poems", and recently her master has begun to give her a rough lecture on "Analects". She went to school with her sisters in this house, and learned piano, chess, calligraphy and painting with Mr. Zeng, and her homework has always been good. The second girl and the fourth girl are two years of the same age as her, and they have studied longer than her, and they are often not as good as her. Mr. Zeng praised her several times. Why is it that when it comes to your girl's mouth, she doesn't read much?"

Second Mrs. Xu was also a little confused: "This ...... It is impossible for Sister Xiu'er and Sister Lan to lie about such a thing, not to mention that Brother Zheng also heard it at the time, and the third girl said it herself, saying that she only knew a few words......"

Niu smiled, waved his hand and said, "The child is humble and polite." Whose old child has only been studying for a few years, and he shows off all over the world how talented he is? This kind of thing is praised by outsiders, not by himself. Just like our lord, when he was young, he also had the name of a talented man, could it be that he was self-sealed? Such polite words, your family should often say it, how can you really believe it?"

Second Mrs. Xu felt that her face was hot, and she was a little reluctant to laugh.

Niu suddenly smiled again, and said with a straight face: "It's okay, this matter is just a farce." The eldest sister-in-law is infatuated, but it's a pity that our lord can't respond. My sister also told Brother Zheng'er when she went back, telling him not to waste his thoughts. No matter how many years our Sister Sang has been studying, whether our homework is good or bad, he is not a match for our Sister Sang, and there is no reason to be reluctant to marry. If he has spare time, he should study hard, and in the future, he will also take a fame test, and learn from his father's ancestors who were generally officials. In the end, this kind of thing has to be earned by oneself, which is the right way, and I always think about relying on nepotism, what will it become?"

She smiled and patted the back of Mrs. Xu's hand: "Good sister, your head of the house is used to this kind of crooked and evil way, and always thinks about relying on your in-laws." It's not like your second room, with a right mind, which is the rule that a scholarly family should have!"

Second Mrs. Xu couldn't blush, and hurriedly said to Niu: "Good sister, don't be annoyed by Brother Zheng because of your sister-in-law's nonsense." Brother Zheng is indeed a good boy, although he is older, he will not insult your granddaughter. ”

Niu smiled and waved his hand: "It's true that Brother Zheng'er is a good boy, but my master and I both love our granddaughter, and Sister Sang'er's family affairs must always be safe." Now our family is still somewhat decent in the capital, and it is not difficult to find a good family for Sister Sang, but I am afraid that in the future, our family will not be as beautiful as it is now, and the minds of our in-laws will change, and we will make some tricks to withdraw from the marriage, wouldn't it hurt the children? ”

Second Mrs. Xu couldn't even laugh this time.
