Chapter 272: Flower Transfer
Oh, yes? Why?
When Wu heard Mama Wu say this, he gradually heard some meaning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
You must know that in the past, when her father wrote to her, he always had something to say, and he only wrote a few lines of dull regular greetings when he had nothing to do, and he didn't talk about anything superfluous, and he didn't even talk to her about the affairs of the Wu family, let alone talk to her about the affairs of the Zhuji clan.
Could it be that the father talked about the patriarch's son's family affairs in his last letter, but what was the purpose?
She never thought about it.
"What do you mean ......," Wu asked.
Mama Wu still said unhurriedly: "When the old lady mentioned the patriarch and young master's family affairs in the letter, when the old lady told the old slave at the beginning, the old slave didn't feel anything, but I just thought that the old lady and the wife were gossiping, which was also close. But then the old slave remembered the words he heard about the patriarch and young master's family when he returned to Zhuji the year before last, and then thought about what the old lady said in his letter, but he figured out something else. ”
Wu asked: "What did Mama hear when she returned to Zhuji the year before last?" Why didn't you tell me about it? What other meaning do you have in your father's letter? Why don't you tell me! ”
Mama Wu said with a smile: "That time the old slave returned to Zhuji, I heard that the clan chief was discussing marriage to his son, and when he talked about it in private, he said, 'The patriarch and young master's family affairs are ......', but I am afraid that it will be difficult to discuss!" At that time, the old slave felt strange when he heard it, although the patriarch and young master fell into a stupidity, but with the momentum of our Wu family, it should not be difficult to find a passable daughter-in-law, how could the patriarch and young master's family affairs be difficult to discuss?
But after listening a lot, I realized that the patriarch was not only looking for a daughter-in-law, but a clan wife, the wife of the next patriarch! Naturally, the requirements are high! According to the standards of the previous patriarch's wife, the new patriarch's wife must be born in a scholarly official eunuch's family, be literate and hyphenated, knowledgeable, able to entertain all directions outside, and be able to take charge of family affairs internally...... But if a girl is so complete, how can she marry a stupid paralytic? So this family affair is a little difficult to discuss. ”
When Wu heard her say, she remembered that after she came back from Zhuji the year before last, she had told herself such a thing.
At that time, she also sighed to Mama Wu: "That is, the young master of the patriarch's family has been calculated, otherwise how many people will break their heads in such a family matter!" The affairs of the clan are carefully examined...... It's hard to put into words! ”
The Wu family is a local clan in Zhuji, and according to the rules of the ancestors, the position of the patriarch adheres to the hereditary system passed down from generation to generation, and is not left behind. For hundreds of years, the patriarch's family has been prosperous, and the family is full of children and grandchildren. When each patriarch descends to the throne, he can also be freely selected.
But who knew that this patriarch, although according to the custom of the ancestors, when he reached the age of fifteen, he married a yard of wives and concubines. But in the more than ten years since they got married, they have given birth to a large group of daughters, but none of them have sons.
worked hard until he was thirty years old, and finally got an only son.
When the son was a child, he was also born smart and clever, and he was very lovely, and the patriarch was so happy all day long that he felt that there was a successor.
Who knows that there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, the smart and clever patriarch young master grew up to be four years old, one day, for some reason, he fell from the rockery in the back garden of his home inexplicably, not only broke his legs, but also fell stupidly.
Since then, he has never stood up, and his cognition has stayed at the age of four, and he has become what people call a fool.
The patriarch only had this one son for half his life, although he was paralyzed and stupid, he still loved him very much, and he had high hopes, and he did not intend to pass on the position of the patriarch to others, saying: "The son can give birth to grandchildren......
When Wu thought of this, he suddenly understood what Mama Wu meant.
Marry Mo Shaozhen to the stupid son of the patriarch...... That's a great idea!
First, it can help the patriarch settle his heart; second, you can please your father; What are the three rules...... Mo Shaozhen also got a good place, didn't she want to marry the Wu family?
I will fulfill her!
The patriarch is just right, he is a married daughter, and he really can't get any benefits from the clan, but judging from the last letter from his father, it is obvious that his father wants to do this for the patriarch.
As for why Old Lady Wu is talking to the patriarch...... The Wu family didn't bother to dig deeper, she only vaguely knew that Old Lady Wu had always had some ambition for the ancestral sacrifice field in Zhuji, and she didn't know more.
It doesn't need to be too clear!
Even if her father can get any benefits from the clan, it won't be her turn, she just needs to please her father.
If she got the family affair this time...... In the future, I will be able to speak louder in front of my parents, and my brother and sister-in-law will be able to straighten my waist in front of my brother and sister-in-law, not to mention these things, let alone Wu Chengyu's family affairs...... I can also fight for Qi'er!
The more Wu thought about it, the more he felt that this idea was good, his face gradually turned from cloudy to clear, and he said to Mama Wu with a smile: "Mama, thanks to you all the time by my side!" Otherwise, I don't know how many wrong minds I have to make! ”
Mama Wu hurriedly said modestly: "Mrs. also because she values the five girls too much, and she didn't think of this side when she was angry, so the old slave took a trick and opened this mouth in front of Mrs. and invited this merit!" ”
The two flattered and praised each other a few more words, then made up their minds, and agreed on some detailed rules, and Mama Wu personally took someone to call Mo Shaozhen.
Mo Shaozhen was sitting in the dark looking at the moon shadow and waiting for the result, when she heard that Mama Wu had brought someone here, she collapsed on the couch in fright.
Lu Yan invited Mama Wu into the house while hurriedly lighting the oil lamp.
Mo Shaozhen was even more panicked by the sudden light flashing, and was about to grab something to block it, when Mama Wu walked in from outside: "Ah! What is this doing, girl? Why don't you make the house so dark? ”
Mo Shaozhen's hand froze, raised his head and looked at Mama Wu stunned for a moment, and said in a trembling voice: "Mama, you are ...... coming."
Mama Wu's eyes fell on Mo Shaozhen's face, and when she saw that her face was pale and her expression was desperate, she couldn't help sneering in her heart.
If you don't have the guts, don't have that heart, and if you don't have the ability to catch the rabbit, don't scatter the eagle!
Now know that scared?
It's late!
"Five girls." She said to Mo Shaozhen with a smile, "Today's banquet in the mansion, the eldest lady drank a few more glasses of wine as soon as she was happy, and she couldn't sleep at this time, let the old slave come and invite the fifth girl to come over and say a few words!" ”
Mo Shaozhen listened to her say word by word, only to hear it in horror, and wanted to shirk it: "Mother, she ...... Isn't the sixth sister here? I ......"
"Six girls? As soon as Xi dispersed, the six girls went back to the room to rest, how could they be as affectionate as the five girls? Mama Wu said something, and her eyes were a little cold when she looked at Mo Shaozhen.
"The eldest lady just wants to talk to the fifth girl. How? The fifth girl is so pushing, are you unwilling? ”
"I ...... Where? Mo Shaozhen was told by her, how dare she refuse again, stood up from the couch tremblingly, and followed her to Chunhui Courtyard.
