When Wang Ziteng saw his father meditating there, he understood that his father also agreed with him. In his opinion, the Jia family must be a good partner for marriage, and this candidate is best to inherit Jia Yu, the eldest son of Rongguo Mansion in the future. In this way, the heir of the next generation of the Jia family is the grandson of the Wang family, so the relationship between the Jia family and the Wang family will not be alienated for at least three generations.

Wang Hao turned around in his mind, and he didn't decide on the candidate for this marriage, whether it was Jia Yu or Jia Zheng, they had this or that bad problem. So he asked his sons: "Ziteng is right, marriage is a good way, but I haven't thought about this candidate yet, so which one do you think is more suitable?"

This time, Wang Ziteng replied before the eldest brother could speak: "Father, of course it's Jia Yu, what else do you have to consider, he is the eldest son of Rongguo Mansion, alas, and marrying him can achieve greater benefits." ”

Wang Zisheng also felt that if he considered it from the interests of the family alone, Na Jia Yu was undoubtedly the best choice, but the person who wanted to marry into Jia was the sister of his own mother's compatriot after all, and Na Jia Yu was not a good person, he told his father and younger brother his own thoughts: "Father, although I think what Zi Teng said is good, but should we also think about it for our sister, after all, Na Jia Yu's reputation is not very good." ”

Wang Hao frowned when he heard this, although the eldest daughter he loved the most, but the other two were not unconcerned, no matter who the three of them married into the Jia family in the end, it was Jia who thought about them, it was always his own flesh and blood.

Wang Ziteng felt that his father and brother were thinking too much, in his opinion, no matter which of the two sisters married into the Jia family, there was no marriage better than this, so he said indifferently: "Then Jia Yu is not worthy of his sister, once he is the eldest daughter-in-law, he will be the master of the house, and Jia Yu is also the six-grade master of the saint's own title, and the sister will also be an Anren, which is much stronger than those white bodies, don't say that Jia Yu will inherit the title of Duke Rongguo in the future." As for whether this rumor is true outside the rumor, you must know that the rumor stops at the wise. ”

Wang Hao listened to his words and dispelled all the worries in his heart, the woman was originally a husband and a noble wife, but who would choose the three daughters. The eldest daughter is as gentle as water, and she is even more loved by men. The second daughter is dignified and generous, and she is liked by the nobles of the family. As for the third daughter, she is also from a small family. He has thought about all aspects of his three daughters, and the eldest daughter is the most favorite, but Xin'er has a fatal point, that is, she is a concubine.

He looked at his two sons, and said expectantly, "I want to marry Xin'er into Jiafu, what do you think?"

After Wang Zisheng and Wang Ziteng heard this, they looked at their father in surprise, they felt that the person in front of them was not a shrewd father at all, how could he have the idea of giving his concubine to the eldest son of Jia Fuyan, this was too ridiculous. Wang Ziteng blurted out: "Father, you are not a marriage but a feud, I am afraid that you will be rejected by Rong Guogong before you finish speaking." Although the eldest sister is good, her background is always one layer worse. He didn't say the word concubine, otherwise he would have been disciplined by his father again, the concubine sister has been liked by her father since she was a child, and she grew up like the eldest daughter since she was a child, even he and his brother took a step back, so many years I just can't understand why my father treats the mother and daughter so specially.

Wang Hao also knew that this idea was too absurd, but he was sorry for the mother and daughter, if he hadn't ruined the marriage and remarried, Lin Sheng and Xin'er would not have such an embarrassing position, because he owed them too much to their mother and daughter.

It turned out that Aunt Lin of the Wang family was also the daughter of a military general, and Wang Hao was engaged to marry since childhood, and she was a pair of childhood sweethearts, but because Lin Shang's father died on the battlefield, her mother also died early, and there were no other relatives. Originally, this qiē was fine, as long as she got married in the year of Jilu. However, Wang Hao's mother was very dissatisfied with her son marrying an orphan girl, so she discussed with the prince and wanted her son to marry someone else, but the prince did not agree, this is not what a husband should do. But she couldn't stand the queen mother's will, so she followed her will. Moreover, Wang Hao was already in love with Lin Shang, and he swore that he did not want to ruin his marriage, and often quarreled with his mother for this matter, but in the end, Lin Sheng couldn't bear to be embarrassed and took the initiative to leave the Wang family. Many years later, he also met Lin Sheng by accident and brought him back to the Wang family and became an aunt.

This matter was originally unkind to the Wang family, and the queen mother made people ban all things related to Lin Shang after her son got married, so his wife and children do not know the reason for this to this day. And Wang Hao's guilt for Lin Shang's mother and daughter has gradually increased with time, but he has no other way to make up for it, so he has to be extremely pampered by Xin'er. It's not that he doesn't know his wife's dissatisfaction, and the jealousy of other brothers and sisters, but he can't help it.

Wang Hao decided to let the three daughters show the Jia family's wife, and then she chose a satisfactory person, and at the same time, he also decided to record the eldest daughter in the name of his wife and become the veritable eldest daughter of the Wang family. And although Mrs. Wang was dissatisfied with this matter, she could not go against her husband's wishes. But the one I hated the most was the second lady of the Wang family, I didn't think that my father not only doted on my sister more, but even the name of my eldest daughter fell on my sister.

There are no less than ten families in the capital who think the same as the Wang family, whether it is Jia Daishan or his wife when they go out as guests, there are always people who mention Jia Yu's marriage and indirectly express the intention of marriage. But they all understood that they could not sit in charge of Jia Yu's marriage, and no one could do it without the consent of the old lady.

Jia Daishan, who had just left the dynasty that day, just wanted to go to the barracks, but was stopped by Shui Ye, the prince of Beijing, halfway, and invited her to the restaurant for a gathering, Jia Daishan didn't understand what it meant, he was a friend of life and death with the old prince who passed away, but he didn't have any contact with Shui Ye, but he also looked at him since he was a child, so he responded, but he didn't expect the restaurant to see Liu Hongwen, the secretary of Dali Temple, was also there.

The three of them sat down, the wine and food were quickly served, and after the wine and tea, Shui Ye said: "Lord Liu, this Rong Guogong also invited you, and this wine was also drunk, so the king will leave first, and you will slowly tell Rong Guogong about the rest of the matter." I'm sorry, but I asked you to ask you today, and I will be with you in the future. After talking to Liu Hongwen, he gave Jia Daishan to accompany Xiangli Fang.

When Jia Daishan saw that Shui Ye was gone, he thought that Lord Liu was looking for him something, but after a long time, he saw that Liu Hongwen's face was flushed, but he didn't say a word, so Jia Daishan had to ask: "Lord Liu, I don't know what is the matter with today's invitation?"

After Liu Hongwen heard this, his heart sank and he said generously: "I will find Rong Guogong as soon as possible, that is, I will be ordered by my mother, if there is any rudeness, please Haihan." ”

Jia Daishan was even more surprised when he heard this, he didn't understand what the old lady Liu said to him. But his face remained unchanged and said: "Lord Liu, please tell me something, if you can help Jia, you will not resign." ”

Liu Hongwen smiled, and then said: "Actually, there is nothing else, that is, my mother has taken a fancy to your son and wants to recruit him as a son-in-law. After speaking, he was embarrassed to open his face, and said that a family of women begged for a hundred families, but he didn't want to be a woman, but he came to ask the man in person, he didn't want to help his mother be anxious.

Jia Daishan didn't think he would say this, he had also met a marriage family before, but it was all the middleman who revealed the meaning of the marriage slightly, but it was never as direct as the Liu family, and he only reflected it for a long time, but looking at the embarrassed face of Lord Liu on the other side, he understood that it was not his intention to act like this, and hurriedly replied: "Xiao'er can get the joy of Mrs. Liu, I am very grateful, but the fact of Xiao'er's marriage is not up to me, I think Lord Bi Liu also knows that Xiao'er was raised by his mother, and his marriage is also decided by his mother." ”

After hearing this, Liu Hongwen also knew that what he said was true, so he said: "The matter of marriage also depends on fate, today this matter is my rudeness, and Grandpa Guo will not mention this matter when I have not mentioned it, so I will leave first." ”

In fact, Jia Daishan is still quite satisfied with Liu Hongwen's family, he himself was born in the imperial examination and is now a third-grade Dali Siqing, with two sons and two daughters in the family, and the family rules are very strict. And the two sons are one of the people and the other is talented, and the eldest daughter also married into a scholarly family, so there is really nothing to find fault with.

When he returned to the mansion, he did not go directly to the study as usual, but went to the old lady's courtyard, wanting to discuss Jia Yu's family affairs with the old lady.

In the old lady's courtyard, Jia Min and Jia Yu were laughing with the old lady, and suddenly heard that Jia Daishan was coming, and everyone quieted down. Jia Daishan entered the house to greet the old lady first, and at the same time exempted Jia Yu and Jia Min.

The old lady saw that her son was unusually greeting at this hour, and she was afraid that she had something to say, so she asked, "Shan'er, why is this hour coming, is there something to say?"

Jia Daishan saw that Jia Min was here, and it was not easy to say what he meant directly, so he said implicitly: "Today, Lord Liu has come to me to discuss a matter, so I came to ask my mother's opinion." ”

The old lady listened to her son's reply, and thought about the three families she knew about the Liu family in the capital, and the one who came and went with Rongguo Mansion was also Liguo Gong, and she didn't know if Jia Daishan said it was his family, so she asked: "Could it be that Liguo Gong's family has something to ask for our family, if you can help, please help, after all, Liu Biao and your father fought the world for Gaozu together." ”

Jia Daishan's mother misunderstood, and explained: "It's not the Liguo family, it's the Dali Temple Qing Liu Hongwen's family, and this Liu Daren is looking for me to talk" Suddenly remembered that Jia Yu was still there, so he took his mouth in time, he coughed before turning his head to Jia Yu Jia Min and said: "I have something to discuss with your grandmother, you can go back first, and then come to accompany your grandmother at dinner." ”

Jia Yu Jia Min listened to his father's words, and although he was curious about what his father wanted to discuss with his grandmother, he still withdrew from the house as he said. Seeing that the grandchildren had left, the old lady spoke: "You are really, what can't you talk about in front of Yu'er and Min'er, besides, Yu'er is also old, and he should also be involved in the affairs of the house." ”

Jia Daishan listened to his mother's words and sighed: "Mother, what I said is the marriage of the forgiveness of the child, and this matter must not be told in front of him. ”

Listening to Jia Daishan mention Jia Yu's marriage, the old lady was even more strange, not that he didn't care about Jia Yu's marriage, but that the old lady was in charge of the things that had been agreed before, and Jia Daishan and his wife could only refer to one side. The old lady was puzzled: "Why did you mention the marriage of Yu'er, could it be that the Liu family wants to marry their daughter to Yu'er?"

Jia Daishan thought about what had happened recently, and said helplessly: "Yes, Lord Liu is looking for his son to talk about the marriage between the two families today, but he still has to listen to his mother's wishes, so I didn't explicitly agree." Since I took over the post of envoy of the Jingying Festival, there have been no less than dozens of families who have asked me about the marriage of Yu'er, and the same is true for my wife, but only the Liu family is not wrong in all aspects of these families, I don't know what my mother thinks. ”

The old lady thought about the disappearance of the Liu family, and said: "To be honest, the Liu family, whether it is a family, character, or furniture, is good, and it is okay to be pardoned, but that Lord Liu is just a third-grade civil official, and there are no high-ranking officials in the family, and you are a super national prince, and after the marriage, their family has to rely on our family for everything. The old lady told her son all her worries.

Jia Daishan listened to his mother's thoughts, and said: "Actually, my son thinks that although the Liu family has three products, it is enough, as the saying goes, 'marry a low wife and marry a high daughter', and the son just likes his family to be a scholarly family, and I think my mother also understands that I have long wanted to change the lintel." It's just that now the two sons can't be fingered, and they can only make plans for the next generation through marriage. ”

The old lady listened to her son's sigh, and said: "I also know what you think, so most of the girls I look at at this time are scholarly families, last year I took a fancy to the young daughter of the Hubu Shangshu Qi family, just let the Beijing Wangfu Shui family take the lead, and now I am optimistic about the three families, but I don't know how to choose for a while, just when you come to see if these three are more suitable than the Liu family, Gu Mama went to put me in the cabinet booklet." ”

Mama Gu walked into the inner room, took the booklet that the old lady said, and handed it to Jia Daishan. He opened the booklet and saw that it was full of records of dozens of young girls from official families above the second grade in Beijing. Its content includes more than a dozen things such as the girl's appearance, character, father and brother's official character, in-law relationship, and family style. It really took ten weeks to consider all aspects, and only three were left after being cut. Looking at this booklet, it can be seen how hard the old lady worked for Jia pardon's marriage, and even Jia Daishan couldn't help but feel a little jealous, you must know that he didn't bother so much about choosing a wife for the old lady back then.

The old lady saw that he was jealous, so she smiled and said: "You are so old that you still can't eat with your son, in fact, I did the same for your marriage back then, but in the end, your father directly set a historian for you without my consent, and the booklet I prepared was not used." Okay, how about you look at the three I chose?"
