Because the two families are in a hurry to pick up this family, the two sides are unusually harmonious and friendly when discussing things. The female guest is accompanied by Mrs. Kong, and the male guest is accompanied by the father-in-law who came to the son.

Matters such as combining eight characters, inviting matchmakers, giving dowry gifts, etc., whatever Mrs. Kong Liu asks, Erya can basically agree. Of course, Mrs. Kong Liu, because her daughters are already twenty years old, can still bump into such a good family business, although she is very excited, she can also restrain herself rationally, and she does not make any excessive requests.

Erya is also a sincere marriage to the daughter of the Kong family for her younger brother, of course, she also meets the woman's requirements as much as possible, and the two families have discussed the early matters properly without any entanglement and argument.

It wasn't until it was dark that Ah Jing, who was already very restless in the backyard, waited until her mother came over in a dizzy mood.

Mrs. Kong Liu deliberately sealed the news today, and no one was allowed to reveal half a word to Ah Jing. At this time, I came to my daughter's boudoir with three parts of wine and four parts of pride, looked at my daughter, and laughed out loud: "I didn't expect you to be a blessed girl, and I have been worrying about it for so many years." ”

Ah Jing heard her mother's words, but secretly looked forward to it. swore that she would not marry, that was just a moment of anger, if there was really a good marriage, she hoped to be able to form this family affair more than her mother. She is a normal person, how can she really accept that she can't marry for the rest of her life.

"Mother! You—Are you here so late to talk about this? What's going on with that? ”

"What kind of situation do you still care about? I thought you didn't care! Don't you have to fight with me today and don't want to go out to meet people? In a hurry now?! Someone came looking for you in the afternoon? ”

"Hmmm! It's the two sisters-in-law of the fourth sister, who came to ask me if I often write to the fourth sister. ”

Mrs. Kong Liu's eyes narrowed. Stretched out his hand and poked his daughter's forehead, "You stupid girl, people came to see you." Probe your bottom. I still haven't understood, you said that you still want to be an official's wife, I'm really not at ease. ”

Ah Jing's eyes lit up, and she asked cautiously and with a slightly incredulous look: "Mother! You're saying they're here for that champion? I, I"

There is another voice in her heart that says: Mother! It's not like you're stupid! I really never dreamed that such a good thing could fall on my daughter's head! The girl didn't drink, and she felt dizzy!

"What? You can't believe it, can you? Hahaha! Isn't it for the youngest prefect to ask for a kiss? Today's old lady is really happy, she has lived most of her life and has never been so happy today! "Mrs. Kong Liu may have really drunk a lot, after laughing. But he cried bitterly. Unexpectedly, her daughter cried louder and more violently than her.

Mrs. Kong Liu saw that her daughter could cry better than herself, but she didn't cry anymore. asked the girl: "The old lady has been aggrieved for so many years!" Just because your father is not as good as others, he was stabbed by the people and quit his daughter's family. Just because you've been withdrawn once. People dare to snatch the concubine and burst out before the wife passes the door. Just because you have become an old girl, that rootless and rootless foreign jinshi in the capital dares to cheat on marriage in the Kong family, do you know how much the old lady hates it?! In order to find you a suitable home, I was perfunctory and secretly ridiculed by those so-called relatives and close friends. Do you know how uncomfortable my mother is?! Today, the royal family has relieved my hatred and removed my humiliation. The old lady will be relieved and cry with joy. Why do you cry? Didn't you always care? ”

Ah Jing listened to her mother's half-questioning tone, and stopped crying. Cocking his neck, he argued, "Who says I don't care anymore? I'm even more aggrieved than you! I obviously don't want to see people, and you have to be caught every day, forcing me to make a joke for those ladies and wives. As long as you're still enjoying it, I don't know if I hate to drill into the ground and never see those people again for the rest of my life. Mother! We don't need to talk about the past now, you tell me, when will their family come to propose? And ah! Who the hell did they fall in love with me? How come I don't know at all? ”

Mrs. Kong Liu blinked speechlessly, what kind of rhythm is this? The purpose of coming here seems to be to persuade her daughter not to have any more tempers that do not marry. lest you let your son-in-law know that she is unhappy, and she will be disliked when she marries. It's just that this girl seems to be more anxious than herself, the day when the Wang family proposes marriage?

"Mother! Say it quickly! Is it fun to hang your daughter like this? Ah Jing saw that her mother only looked at her strange smile but didn't speak, so she thought that her mother was deliberately hanging her heart to tease herself.

Mrs. Kong Liu originally wanted to say that her daughter swore not to marry, but she was afraid of bad luck, so she swallowed it. only answered the girl's question with a glance: "The Wang family originally planned to ask the hometown to send the dowry gift over to propose marriage." I'm afraid that there will be many dreams at night, so I asked them to invite a matchmaker to come over tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to give the kiss in advance, and when the dowry will arrive in the capital and when will it be sent over.

As for who in their family takes a fancy to you, your second aunt didn't let you say it before, but today the matter has been decided, and it doesn't matter if you talk about it. On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, your cousin invited the little sisters to play in the flower hall and called you over to help. said that it was your fourth sister's second sister-in-law who went to visit the New Year that day, and happened to see you and felt that it was a good match, so she asked your second aunt about your situation. Later, she wrote to her younger brother, who was the prefect of Lanzhou, and asked for his opinion, and he was also willing to do so. Speaking of which! I think it's weird too! You two estimate! It's really a good fate. I thought of such a way at home and invited them to the door. Unexpectedly, when they were just about to go out today, they received an urgent letter from her brother who sent them back day and night, just to settle this family affair with you as soon as possible. Do you think it's too coincidental? If it weren't for the fact that he was related to the Wang family, everyone knew the bottom line, and your mother and I would still wonder if someone was making a mistake in it. ”

Ah Jing listened to everything she was obedient to, and her mother said that she didn't hear anything else, so she heard that her sister-in-law took a fancy to her first, and then he also liked her, and asked people to send a letter overnight, just to settle the family affairs as soon as possible. As long as she got this news, it was enough for her to wake up with a smile in her dreams. In fact, she was also scared of those family affairs, so she said cruel words on her lips and never married again. But I still look forward to marrying a good family, and the husband and wife will live a life of harmony and beauty.

When Mrs. Kong Liu saw her daughter's shy and charming bear, she knew that she had nothing to persuade her. People are looking forward to accomplishing good things as soon as possible than themselves! Get! Let's go back to washing and sleeping.

As soon as Mrs. Kong Liu left, the maids who had been jumping up and down with joy for a long time and the smiling nurses who couldn't close their mouths suddenly gathered in front of the young lady. They all congratulated: "Congratulations girl!" ”

The nurse sighed sincerely: "The girl is out of the woods now!" What a good thing to grind! I didn't expect my wife to be able to endure it this time, and she hid it so much, and even the old slave couldn't get any real news, which made the girl worry for a long time. ”

Ah Jing shook her head, "As long as it's a good thing, worrying about a day and a half is nothing." The nurse doesn't have to blame herself. Let's all get things done and rest, I'm going to get ready for bed. ”

In the next few days, the eight characters, the proposal, and the marriage were all carried out in an orderly manner, and Ah Jing was also full of anticipation and stayed in the room embroidering her dowry. Her mother came to discuss things with her again: "Ah Jing! You have listened to your fourth sister about their Wang family, right? ”

Ah Jing was stunned, there are many things in the Wang family, what does my mother want to say? "Mother! Say whatever you want! ”

"Hey! My mother heard your second aunt say that men in the Wang family are not allowed to have women other than wives, otherwise they will be punished very strictly. Your second aunt didn't know before, and arranged four dowry girls for your fourth sister. Your fourth sister who made trouble later was not a person inside and out, and your fourth sister was afraid that she hadn't told you. Your second aunt reminded me of this today, and I think I should discuss it with you. ”

"It's good to have only one wife!" Ah Jing's excitement in her heart couldn't be expressed on her face, otherwise the few maids who followed her would be cold-hearted. She pretended to be very flat and asked, "What does that mother want to discuss with me?" ”

Mrs. Kong Liu opened her mouth, endured it for a while, and still said her inner plan: "For you to be able to live well with your husband in the future, I specially wrote to your fourth sister to inquire about their family." Listen to what your fourth sister means, don't care about the dowry, their Wang family doesn't care about that, the key is not to bring too many domestic slaves over. Originally, I planned to arrange four dowry girls, two mothers, and a six-room family to have children, but now it seems that I have to remove some. The four dowry girls will not be brought, leaving only two mothers, and only two rooms will be left for children born in the six-room family, you may accept it? ”

Ah Jing agreed in her heart, in fact, she was already secretly inquiring about her future husband's family, knowing that their life was very simple, and they didn't even have a decent domestic servant. If you bring too many dowry slaves and maids to the past, it will inevitably make the future husband's family feel too strong. However, the people around me have grown up with him since he was a child, and even his marriage has been delayed because of himself. Now she says that she will lose it, and she always can't get over it in her heart.

"Mother! Otherwise, don't arrange the two companion rooms, I'll take the nurse. I took the four of them with me, but I didn't take them as my dowry maids, so I brought them over as a companion and let them marry over there. In this way, I can also choose a few good ones for them, after all, they are because I delayed the family affairs, if I let them marry in a hurry, I will also feel guilty and panicked. ”

Mrs. Kong Liu listened to her daughter's plan, but raised her hands in approval. But she also has concerns: "That's a good idea! It's just that I'm afraid that the people on the Wang family will dislike them as slaves. Listen to your second aunt, there are almost no servants in their royal family, and all of them are hired laborers with civilian status. And then there are employees with the same status as their own family. There is another one, I'm afraid you don't know, are you girls willing to listen to your arrangement and marry the countrymen?! ”

Ah Jing lowered her head and thought about it, these were indeed problems, or was her mother well-informed and would not be arranged by herself. "Mother! I know what you said, I'll talk to them about the situation later, and if you're willing to go with me, stay and settle the matter over there. If you don't want to go with me, ask your mother to help them choose a suitable family affair for them. ”

"You don't have to worry about what they said about their relationship, I will arrange it. As long as you're not afraid of others saying you're shabby, and you don't even have a dowry girl, I'm at ease. (To be continued.) )
