Chapter 241: The Wind
Niu didn't mention a word to Mrs. Huang Jincheng, only chatted with her for a long time, and called Qin Hanzhen and Huang Qingfang over to gossip. At noon, Qin Bai ordered someone to set up a simple banquet to entertain Huang Jincheng's family. After lunch, the Huang family also took their leave.
Before leaving, Huang Qingfang also took Qin Hanzhen's hand and said, "Hanzhen will go to see me when he has time." I'm bored at home now. You're here, we can still talk. ”
Qin Hanzhen smiled and agreed: "Okay, I'll go when I'm free." There is a lantern festival in Jinling City during the Lantern Festival, do you want Aunt Huang to see it?"
Huang Qingfang smiled: "Naturally, I want to go." I often hear people say how lively the Shangyuan lantern in Jinling will be. Now that I'm here, wouldn't it be a pity to miss such a grand event?"
Huang Jincheng looked at his sister gently, and said with a smile: "My sister wants to go to the Lantern Festival, it's easy." I'll ask someone to book a private room in the restaurant, and on the day of the Lantern Festival, your sister-in-law and I will accompany you to have a good time!" and invited Qin Bai and Niu's again, "Master Hou and Mrs. Please come together." Everyone was lively and lively together. ”
Qin Bai casually agreed.
After sending the Huang family away, Qin Bai went back to the study to talk to Wu Shaoying. Taking advantage of the free time during the Chinese New Year, he still has a lot of things to explain to the students. Wu Shaoying is now familiar with the affairs of the post of Fu Experience, but in order to prevent him from taking over the position of magistrate in the near future, he also has to make up for his knowledge of the law and punishment. He really hadn't been exposed to this aspect of affairs before, so he had to make more preparations in advance, lest he rush to make mistakes.
Qin Hanzhen helped the Niu family back to the main house, and was still persuading her: "Aunt Huang's marriage is in trouble, we already know about it." Actually, it's good not to say kiss for the time being. The affairs of the Zhang family have just passed, and there are so many messy rumors outside, and you can't take the initiative to explain it when you meet someone, right? When something happens to the Wang family, the Zhang family also breaks with the Wang family, and the reputation of the two families is stinky, which naturally shows Aunt Huang's innocence. When the time comes, with the relationship between the Huang family and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you still afraid that Aunt Huang will not find a good relative? Anyway, Aunt Huang has also thought about it now, and she is no longer angry and depressed for Zhang Gongzi, so let her play for a year and a half more, and let her relax. Mrs. Huang is concerned about the chaos, grandmother, it would be good if you persuaded her more, don't insert a foot in it, and do something to be a matchmaker. ”
Niu had something on his mind, so he was a little absent-minded and said "um" indiscriminately.
Qin Hanzhen heard something strange and shook her arm: "Grandmother, did you hear what I said?"
Niu Shi came to his senses: "Huh, what did you say?"
Qin Hanzhen glanced at her helplessly, so he had to repeat his words, and said: "Our family and Lord Huang's family get along very well now, but this is a friendship that was formed by guarding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince around the Chinese New Year last year. If there is no such floor, the relationship between our third room and the Huang family is actually a little awkward. If you have any ideas for Aunt Huang's marriage, if the result is good, it will be fine, and if there is anything bad, our three rooms will be in trouble! So, don't meddle in the Huang family's housework. Even if Mrs. Huang asks you for ideas, don't say anything specific to deal with it, just comfort her a few words, and ask her not to force Aunt Huang too hard. With the official position of the Huang family, Aunt Huang is a beautiful woman with both talent and appearance, are you afraid that she will not be able to marry in the future?"
Niu scolded his granddaughter: "You are really old and confused to be a grandmother? Don't you even understand this truth? Of course I won't give people any ideas randomly!" But in his heart, he remembered the thought he had before...... Indeed, the relationship between Qin Bai and the Huang family is awkward, even if she has good intentions, she really likes Huang Qingfang, once it is misunderstood, it will only make Qin Bai's situation more difficult. You have to ask your husband what she means before you can make a decision.
It's just that......
Niu hesitated. She feared that if she made that suggestion, her husband would reject it. What does Qin Bai think of the Huang family? Knowing that she has the idea of remarrying Huang Qingfang for her eldest son, will she really not be angry?
Niu's heart wavered, and he lost his mind again. Qin Hanzhen noticed her abnormality, and she was still a little depressed in her heart, secretly wondering what was the reason for her grandmother, she always looked absent-minded? Could it be that Mrs. Huang Jincheng told her something? But when she was eating, she didn't see anything unusual about the Huang family's sister-in-law?
Of course, Niu will not tell his granddaughter calmly. She fidgeted in the main room until the girl next to her came to report that the patriarch of the clan had come to invite Qin Bai to discuss the matter, Wu Shaoying returned to her own courtyard, and she hurriedly ordered: "Quickly invite Young Master Wu over." ”
Before confessing to her husband, Niu decided to ask Wu Shaoying for advice first. Wu Shaoying is not an outsider, but a disciple who has studied under Qin Bai since he was a teenager, and he is also a junior of his relatives, so he is the most reliable. Moreover, he is the cousin of Qin Hanzhen's biological mother Guan Rongniang, and he is Guan Rongniang's mother's family. If she really planned to remarry her eldest son Qin Ping, she would naturally have to explain to the relatives of the deceased eldest daughter-in-law. Without Guan Rongniang's mother's nod, the remarriage of her son has always been a bit unjustifiable.
After listening to Niu's words, Wu Shaoying was stunned for a while and didn't speak.
Niu Shi was a little uneasy: "What? Is there something wrong? I shouldn't have made this suggestion to your teacher, right?"
Wu Shaoying came back to her senses, smiled and said, "No, how could it be? Actually, this idea ...... It's not bad, but I don't know what the character of that yellow girl is? My wife likes her so much, she must be a likable girl, right?"
Niu's expression softened: "It's really likable." Not only was he born very well, but his temperament was also very much to my liking. At first glance, it seems to be a Sven lady, but in fact, it is the most refreshing. She and Sister Sang also get along very well, every time the two meet, they talk and laugh, if it is not for the wrong generation, they are sisters and some people believe them. I think this girl is really good, not quite the same as Sister Sang'er and her mother......"
She paused, and said to Wu Shaoying with some embarrassment: "I'm not saying that Sister Sang'er and her mother are not good, that child can't be more gentle and filial." It is because of her that Brother Ping has never forgotten her. I think that if Brother Ping remarries, it is best not to marry a daughter-in-law who looks like Sister Sang'er and her mother, so as not to always make Brother Ping think of the daughter-in-law in front of him and feel sad. If he is good to his daughter-in-law because of this, it will not be very fair to others. Therefore, it is best that the two are different temperaments and looks. Of course, it depends on whether Brother Ping likes it. I think the Huang family girl is like this...... He'll love it. ”
The feeling in Wu Shaoying's heart was sour and difficult to understand for a while. He smiled reluctantly: "Master's words also make sense. Actually, my cousin-in-law ...... Who does Brother Ping want to marry when he continues the strings, as long as the family background is innocent, the family is suitable, the conduct is decent, and he can get along well with Brother Ping and Han Truth, it is enough. The next thing is secondary, and the most important thing is character. If the character is not good, no matter how good the others are, they can't be married. If there is another He family, the Qin family will really have no peace. ”
Niu Shi hurriedly said: "I think so too. I don't know what the character of the girls in other people's homes is. But the girl of the Huang family has been with me for two or three months, and I know what her temperament is. Our two families are in-laws, and we have a lot of contacts on weekdays, so we know each other. If I hadn't known what this girl was, I wouldn't have dared to have such thoughts. ”
Wu Shaoying smiled and said to Niu: "My wife is also a mother's heart. It's just that this matter is very important after all, and Brother Ping hasn't let go of his mouth to agree to the family affair, right? If the teacher is against it, you should never have such an idea, and if the teacher agrees, it is not convenient for you to propose to the Huang family immediately. After all...... The girl of the Huang family is only eighteen years old now, and she seems to be old, but she is not too big. The Huang family obviously wanted to say a more decent family affair for her than the Zhang family, and they didn't think about letting her fill the house at all. Brother Ping is ten years older than her, how can he open his mouth like this? In case the Huang family is not happy, maybe even relatives can't do it, and it will be embarrassing to meet each other. ”
Niu Shi thought so: "You are right. I was also worried about this, so I was embarrassed to mention it to Mrs. Huang, and I didn't even dare to test a word. ”
Wu Shaoying smiled and said: "Don't worry too much, this is not a good time to speak now, but it will be difficult to say in two years." Since the girl of the Huang family doesn't want to discuss marriage for the time being, you just have to wait patiently. If the girl of the Huang family can't help her family, and she still has decided on a family affair this year, your thoughts naturally don't need to be mentioned again. But if the Huang family is willing to spoil their own girl, and they really don't set a marriage for her for two or three years, then in two or three years, the Huang family girl will be twenty years old, and she is really an old girl. It is common for an old girl to marry someone to do a continuation. Brother Ping, as the prince of the Hou Mansion, is a talent, both civil and military, and will not insult the girl of the Huang family. At that time, presumably the Huang family will also be happy to solve a problem for them, right?"
Wu Shaoying paused and lowered her voice: "And the master has so much time, it must be enough for you to persuade Brother Ping to marry again, and it is enough for you to let the Huang family see how good Brother Ping is." Since you want to get married, it is naturally wishful thinking, and everyone is happy. ”
Niu Shi laughed when he heard this: "Good boy, you are really thoughtful! I will discuss with your teacher tonight." As soon as he nodded, I would write to Brother Ping. It's rare to have such a good girl, if you miss this village, you won't have this shop!"
Wu Shaoying smiled and nodded, but the smile gradually faded.
Qin Hanzhen didn't know what her grandmother was discussing with her cousin, and when she went to talk to Zhao Mo, she casually mentioned that the Huang family came to pay New Year's greetings today, and Huang Qingfang didn't want to marry for the time being.
She just said it in passing, but Zhao Mo pondered for a moment, but suddenly said, "There is nothing strange about this kind of thing." There is such a commotion in the capital, and the news will reach Jinling sooner or later. Even if the Huang family told Miss Huang about their relatives during the Chinese New Year, the man's family would probably mumble, right? It is better to wait a little longer and wait for the rumors to pass. ”
Qin Hanzhen looked at him confusedly: "What are you talking about?What happened in the capital?"
