Chapter Seventy-Five: Marriage Proposal
Shi Shi saw that his son didn't listen to it and refused, but he was also a little unhappy.
"Mother asks you, do you have a girl you like, today you tell your mother the truth, if your mother does not force you, you will want to reject your uncle, if not, mother thinks this Miss Zhang is not bad. ”
As soon as Li Yi heard the words "Miss Zhang's family", he immediately asked:
"That Miss Zhang?" Shi looked at his son's appearance, and was a little suspicious in his heart, but still said:
"She said that she was the eldest lady of the Ministry of Works' house. "Li Yi listened to the secret path at this time, and God helped me.
"Then don't be busy rejecting my uncle. When Shi heard the play, he said:
"How do you know this Miss Zhang?"
"How would the son know. ”
"Nonsense, just said that he wanted to refuse, how could he immediately change his words when he heard that it was this young lady, how could he not know?" Li Yi simply did not hide from his mother, and told his mother what happened that day. Shi was happy when he heard it,
"It turns out that there is such a hero saving beauty. Li Yi's face was slightly red when he heard this,
"That little gadget was given to you by that girl?" Shi Shi thought of what he saw that day, and he was a little suspicious, and it was very difficult to accept it privately.
"No, no, it was I who said that I knew the owner of the goods, and she asked me to return the thing to the owner, because it was too late to pay in the chaos, and she was not willing to take other people's things for nothing, saying that it was not easy for people to support their families. They don't want me to pay for me. ”
"It's a kind girl. Shi said that she was also very happy that her son finally had a girl he liked, this son looked easy-going and cynical, but in fact he was as arrogant as his father in his bones.
"Oops!" Li Yi said suddenly.
"What's wrong?"
"The Zhang family doesn't know how many young ladies, is it a person?" Li Yi deeply regretted that he had forgotten to ask Yang Xi one more sentence just now.
"How many young ladies have you met?"
The son didn't know, only that her birth mother had died. ”
"I see, I only said that your aunt found out kindly and told you a good family, but I didn't expect this to be the reason. ”
"How?"
"Your aunt only said that the Zhang family is a scholarly family for generations, and the official position is not high, but it is a famous family in the clear stream. His father is now a waiter in the Ministry of Works, his grandmother is a young lady in the Zhongyong Marquis's Mansion, and his mother is the daughter of a current scholar, and her family education is very good. This young lady is not only beautiful as a flower, but also has a virtuous demeanor, which is a good match. But it was not explained whether this young lady was now from Mrs. Zhang. ”
"How is that good?" Li Yi hesitated.
"It's okay, I'll go and ask your aunt about it, that's it. Shi comforted his son.
The next day, Shi personally went to Lian to inquire about this Miss Zhang. Shi rarely came to Lian's place, and she sat on a chair in the main hall and waited for Lian. After a while, Lian's was late, and he said that the child was making trouble, so that his younger siblings had been waiting for a long time. Shi didn't mind, just said that his sister-in-law had worked hard. Lian asked how he told Li Yi about his family affairs yesterday, and Shi said:
"It's really hard sister-in-law, I haven't seen him yet when Yi'er came back late yesterday, but I think my sister-in-law must be a matchmaker, but there are some things I want to ask again. Lian Shixin said that there was something to ask, but he said:
"Yes, the major event of life is to ask carefully. If there is anything you want to ask, just ask. Sister-in-law, I must know everything, and I must say everything. ”
"Then thank you, sister-in-law. I don't know how many young ladies are in the family and whether they have brothers and sisters. Lian didn't expect to ask this question, and it seemed that he was really willing.
"That young lady was born to Zhang Shilang's first wife, the eldest in line, and there are two younger brothers and two younger sisters below. ”
"That should be able to be a director. Lian's eyebrows raised,
"Where can my brother and sister have anything, and they still need a council member?"
"Sister-in-law misunderstood, you also know that Yi'er has a temperament and can't manage her own affairs, so find someone who can take care of him. ”
"I see, my brother and sister have thought it through. At this point, Shi already knew the news she needed, but she still asked a few more perfunctory questions, so as not to be suspicious of Lian, and when she left, she said that she would give Lian an answer as soon as possible.
At the urging of Yang Xi, Mrs. Yang also found a time to visit the Wang family and told her that she wanted to get Saitama for Yang Xi. Of course, Wang was taken aback when she heard this, but she couldn't refuse directly, because this matter would definitely not be hidden from Zhang Hou, she was anxious and angry, but she couldn't refuse directly, so she agreed first. After that, he hurriedly sent someone to inform the Lian family on the side of the Guogong Mansion, but fortunately, good news also came from the Lian family. The Wang family also told the Lian family about the day when the Yang family sent someone to propose marriage, and then sat back and waited for the good show to be staged that day.
On this day, Mrs. Pinglianghou visited Zhang's house. This Pinglianghou Mansion has never had anything to do with the Zhang family, and the old lady wondered how the people from Pinglianghou Mansion would come to the door, but she didn't dare to slack off, so she quickly changed into the clothes of the guests and went to the hall to meet them. The Liu family and the Wang family were already sitting there with Mrs. Pinglianghou. The old lady came out, and the two sides saw each other, and Mrs. Pinglianghou said:
"I have taken the liberty to come and disturb me today, but I have been entrusted by someone. Shandong political envoy Yang Dasu and my lord applauded, because in the past years in Shandong, Mrs. Yang saw the second lady of your mansion, and felt that she liked the elegant manners very much, so she asked me to propose to your mansion and ask for Miss Saitama for the eldest son. ”
The old lady rejoiced in her heart when she heard this, and then asked:
"I don't know how old this Yang Gongzi is. ”
"This Yang Gongzi is twenty years old this year. ”
"That's a bit big!"
The old lady didn't know that this son had never married, and only because he had made a wish to achieve fame and fame before he considered getting married. In the spring of this year, I was fortunate to be in the Tanhua, and now I am in the Hanlin Academy. ”
The old lady was very happy, but the Liu family on the side was unwilling, she had just robbed Saitama's relatives, and in the blink of an eye, there was Tanhualang asking to marry, and all good things were called Saitama. Wang, however, was calm and smiling. Look outside from time to time and seem to be waiting for someone.
The old lady was chatting vigorously with Mrs. Pinglianghou when she heard someone come to report the visit of the Duchess of Qi. Because of the high status of the Duchess of Qi, everyone hurriedly got up.
When Lian went to the hall, he was asked to sit down. She looked around the room and said with a smile:
"Why is it so coincidental today, Mrs. Pinglianghou is also here. Before Mrs. Pinglianghou could answer, Lian turned to the old lady again:
"Old lady, I have come to congratulate you today. The old lady didn't know what was going on, and looked at Lian blankly. And the corners of Wang's mouth at the bottom of the head were a subtle smile.
"On the way back to Beijing last time, I saw that the second lady of your family was really gentle and lovely, and when I went back to meet with my younger brother and sister, I wanted to ask for Miss Zhang Second Miss Saitama for my nephew. You say that's a joy, isn't it?"
After hearing this, the old lady was dumbfounded, how did it all come together?
