Chapter 193: Why not?
readx;? Mrs. An held the tea and was silent, but Hongyu couldn't help but laugh and said, "What a stupid child, if you don't treat you as your own family, where would you be asked to bathe in the house?"
Li Cang was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, "Taijun, you have allowed this?!"
"I can't tell you if you want it or not. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Mrs. An said in a light tone, "Call your mother over." ”
"Yes, thank you Taijun for making it happen. Li Cang couldn't suppress his excitement and kowtowed to Mrs. An several times. He was in a hurry to go back to report the news, where could he still take a bath and ward off the cold?
Mrs. Li didn't expect him to kneel down to really make a difference, and she was naturally happy in her heart. Mrs. An didn't say that she invited the matchmaker to come over, but called her over, presumably because she had something to say. I didn't dare to slack off, so I hurriedly cleaned up and took the car to the Guogong Mansion.
After meeting in two moments, Mrs. An didn't bother to speak, and directly put a prepared document in front of Mrs. Li.
In addition to what was said earlier, the first boy born to Mulan and Li Cang was passed on to the Guogong Mansion, and many conditions were attached to inherit the bloodline of the Xie family: after Mulan got married, she was temporarily not included in the Li family genealogy, and still retained the identity of the girl of the Xie family;
If Mrs. An dies before the step-child grows up, Mulan will temporarily return to the Guogong Mansion and take over from Mrs. An to take care of the Guogong Mansion and perform the responsibility of raising and upbringing until the child can stand up to the door, and the Li family shall not be obstructed by the marriage contract and family rules;
If there is any accident before the adopted child grows up, he needs to adopt another one; within seven years of marriage, if Mulan has nothing to do, he can adopt a child from the Li family to Mulan's name, and then to the Guogong Mansion......
And so on, there are more than ten of them.
Mrs. Li read them one by one, and felt that several of them were a bit out of line, and she did not dare to make her own decisions. took the paperwork back and handed it to Li Jiye for a look.
Li Jiye frowned after reading it, "Where is this marriage, it is clearly a marriage!"
Only with relatives can they set what conditions and what documents to sign. It's better to be with relatives, and relatives are not temporarily excluded from the in-laws' family tree.
According to these terms, they did not marry the wife of the Li family, but an ancestor who was not bound by family rules. If they do something unorthodox outside, they have no right to control it, but they have to bear the black pot of lax family education.
What's the difference between this and getting into the fold?
He is unhappy, calm down and think about it, it is understandable for Mrs. An to put forward these conditions. After all, there is only one single seedling in the Guogong Mansion, which was originally intended to be recruited, but they were stalking and not asking to marry. Mrs. An was able to change her original intention, and she had already made a big concession, what qualifications did they have to blame the harsh conditions of the strange family?
Although the terms on the document are a bit excessive, after all, they are private, and on the surface, their Li family is still marrying the media, and their reputation is not much better than that of entering the media?
Regardless of whether the Xie family girl will have anything in the future, the children and grandchildren of the Li family will succeed to the Xie family. is to change the surname Jie, and also cut off the bloodline. If the old lady is old, and the girl of the Xie family is still young, if she wants the step-child to be promising, how can she be less of the help of the Li family? Walk around diligently, not afraid that the child is not close to the Li family. and so on, and so on, it is a big help to the Li family.
Of course, this is all later, and the most important thing at the moment is to save his reputation and ask Wu Shangshu to recommend him as his successor.
After thinking about it for a long time, I still stamped the seal on the document. When he gave it to Mrs. Li, he couldn't help complaining, "This old lady is too stubborn." ”
Mrs. Li took the opportunity to persuade: "The girl of the Xie family has a special identity, and we are destined not to treat her like an ordinary daughter-in-law." If the lord feels uncomfortable, when they are newly married, he will tell them to divide them and live separately, so that it is cheaper to do so. ”
Li Jiye nodded, "Madame is reasonable, so there is Mrs. Lao, find a decent house for them, don't let people pick it out." ”
Mrs. Li was full of answers, and on the second day, she personally took the documents to the Guogong Mansion.
Mrs. An deliberately set the conditions harshly, leaving them room for bargaining, and they were so cheerful that they saved a lot of trouble. After receiving the paperwork, he signaled that Mrs. Li could ask the matchmaker to come to the door.
The family affairs that were finally asked for were naturally not hasty, and the three media and six hires were all indispensable, and Mrs. Li was busy immediately when she went back. Because Mulan had a fate, she was afraid that she would go on a business trip, so she specially asked Mrs. Zhao to come over to the house and carefully consult about the regulations of big and small wedding gifts.
After the family matter had been decided, Mrs. An called Mulan over and said bluntly: "The Li family came to ask for a kiss, and I have already answered." ”
In the past few days, Li Cang has been kneeling outside the gate of the Guogong Mansion, and Mrs. Li has been in and out, and Mulan has already had a premonition. It's one thing to guess, it's another thing to hear it with your own ears, and you can't react for a while, and you're stunned on the spot.
Seeing that there was only surprise on her face, without the slightest joy and shyness, Mrs. An couldn't help but "chuckle" in her heart, "What's the matter, you don't like Li Jiaerlang?"
When she decided to recruit for Mulan before, she had promised her, and if she didn't agree when choosing a son-in-law, she would never force her.
Because Li Cang's reckless actions caused her reputation to be damaged, she never showed a sense of disgust when she mentioned Li Cang, so she decided that she had a good impression of Li Cang. Before agreeing to Mrs. Li, I had never asked her what she meant.
If you think about it, you really have been negligent in this matter. If she doesn't like the Li family's sons and insists on refusing to marry, things will be really difficult.
Mulan pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.
Do you like it?
In her eyes, Li Cang is just a half-old child, and she can't even give birth to the slightest emotion.
But can she say she doesn't like it?
Even if Mrs. An did not respond to this family business, who can guarantee that she will be able to marry a man who is more in line with Li Cang's heart in all aspects in the future? In this era of blind marriage and dumb marriage, there are many people who don't know what the other party looks like before lifting the hijab. Like her, she has met Li Cang a few times and talked a few times, and she can understand each other to some extent, which is already very good.
Marriage is not autonomous, and she was fully psychologically prepared the moment she stepped into the gate of the Guogong Mansion. But as a woman, she always has beautiful fantasies about her other half. Suddenly appointing someone and telling her that it was her future husband felt so unreal, a sense of disillusionment.
"Isn't Grandmother planning to do it for me?" said for a long time.
Mrs. An didn't hear the word "don't like", and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "That kid from the Li family is good, and he is also sincere to you." With only a family like the Li family, it is impossible to let his own sons and daughters get into trouble.
If because of my stubbornness and selfishness, you have missed a great marriage. If you don't have a good time in the future, won't you blame me for the rest of your life?"
As he spoke, he handed her the paperwork, "This is the condition that I agree to this family business, you can also take a look." I've already thought about everything that should be considered, and if you think something is wrong, you can bring it up. ”
Mulan read it carefully from beginning to end, and handed the document to Mrs. An.
Seeing that she didn't say a word, Mrs. An sighed softly, "Since you have no objection, then you can prepare for marriage with peace of mind." ”
Mulan answered "yes" and withdrew, only to feel at a loss in front of her. I was in a trance all the way, and when I came back to my senses, I had already returned to Yu Ting Pavilion.
The mother-in-law and girl in the yard didn't know that she had already set up a family, and she was doing her own thing as usual.
I went back to the room and changed my clothes, leaned back on the warm couch, and looked at the room where I had lived for less than a year. A table, a chair, a bed, every object placed in every place is so kind.
Even she couldn't tell when she stopped treating herself as a guest and became dependent on this place and had a sense of belonging. When I thought of getting married and leaving here, I couldn't tell how hard it was.
But there are at least two years before she gets married, and she can take advantage of these two years to do everything she needs to do, and then marry in a down-to-earth manner.
She was not born to be a strong woman, otherwise she would not have chosen to teach in her previous life, and lived a step-by-step, ordinary and mediocre life. I have never enjoyed life to the fullest like others, nor have I been in a relationship decently.
In this life, she will follow the local customs and be a little woman thoroughly. Leaving the work of making money to support the family to her husband, and the task of honoring her ancestors to her son, she just eats and dresses well, appreciates flowers and snow, reads books and tastes tea, and lives a leisurely and inactive life with a righteous name and peace of mind.
Why not?
