Chapter 100: The Matchmaker

Zhang Lingxi and Liu Xian walked side by side, she spoke first: "Sister Yang finally came once, I have to accompany her well, and when she is gone, Brother Xian, you can come over." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "lest Sister Yang pull her all the time and talk about everything, causing her to snub Brother Xian."

"It just so happens that I have something to do and want to leave for a few days. I'm relieved to have her with you. Liu Xian said.

"Brother Xian wants to go back to the capital? How long will it take? Zhang Lingxi's face showed a look of loss. She seems to have forgotten that Liu Xian doesn't even have a house in Baoding Mansion, and has been staying with friends for the past few days.

"It's going to take about three to five days." Liu Xian said thoughtfully.

It took a whole day on the road, and I don't know how much work it took to talk to the old lady and my mother. But seeing that Sister Xi didn't want him to leave, Liu Xian thought about it, if he was in a hurry at night, the time on the road could be shortened a lot.

Zhang Lingxi sighed, three or five days is not long, it seems that the things that Brother Xian is going to do are either very simple or not very important.

Liu Xian stopped and said, "Okay, you can send it here, and I'll go to Lao Anren to say goodbye." ”

"Hmm." Zhang Lingxi should come down with his mouth, but he didn't move a step under his feet. Seeing Liu Xian looking at her, she lowered her head a little embarrassed and cut her hair, and said, "I guess Brother Xian is leaving tonight, and I will definitely not be able to send you tomorrow, so I want to watch you go today, and I will go back." ”

Brother Xian treats her well, and she also wants to treat Brother Xian better.

"It's not that I can't see you again, go back quickly, Sister Yang is still waiting for you."

Liu Xian waved his hand freely.

"Then let Emei send you to Cunhuitang." Zhang Lingxi said uneasily.

Hearing that Liu Xian was coming, Lao An's people wondered.

Liu Xian saluted and said: "Thanks to the care of Lao An. There are some things to do in Beijing, and I am going to leave tonight, so I have come to say goodbye to Lao Anren. ”

Lao Anren smiled: "You came just in time, if you don't come, I'm afraid I'm going to look for you." ”

"Lao An people have something to do, just explain."

Lao Anren avoided answering with a smile and asked, "I did something this time, do you still want to come to Baoding Mansion?" If you come over, you don't have to bother your friends, just treat this place as your own home. ”

Liu Xian said: "How can you bother. ”

In fact, he already understood in his heart what Lao Anren wanted to tell him, and he just wanted to get away with it.

"You're twenty this year, aren't you?" Lao Anren asked.

"Back to Lao Anren, it's twenty-one." Liu Xiandao.

Lao Anren nodded with satisfaction: "Did you kiss you at home?" ”

Liu Xian knew that Lao An was anxious for Sister Xi.

Sister Qing married Zhao Jiashan, and Lao Anren's standard for choosing a son-in-law for Sister Xi is naturally higher than before.

Liu Xian didn't boast that he should be the most outstanding one among these people in Lao An's character.

I'm afraid that Lao An people can also see that Sister Xi is dependent on him for everything.

He is older than Sister Xi, and in the eyes of Lao Anren, he can take care of Sister Xi and let Sister Xi be calm and reliable. And it won't be too bad, and there is no common interest.

Liu Xian wanted to recommend himself, but he didn't want Lao An to have such thoughts. He snickered in his heart, but his face was not obvious, and he replied respectfully: "My father asked me to study the books of the sages hard, so I have never discussed marriage. ”

Lao An people are more satisfied.

Liu Xian waited for Lao Anren to take the initiative to mention Sister Xi.

After Lao Anren finished speaking, he looked at Liu Xian expectantly.

Liu Xian replied unhurriedly: "I haven't thought about this. But I think that since we have been together for a long time, we naturally have to find someone who understands each other. ”

Lao An people didn't have to work hard here, which is undoubtedly a good sign for Liu Xian.

He hurried up, day and night, and returned to the capital with his sword, and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to meet the old lady.

"Old lady, you gave me this sword, and I regard it as a treasure. The person who knots the sword spike is the person I like, and it is also the treasure of my heart. Ask the old lady to be fulfilled. ”

The old lady took the sword, looked at the sword spike, understood it in her heart, and said, "You didn't ask her, but you came to beg me to be the master for you." ”

"Old lady..."

"Well, since she is willing to hang this sword spike for you, you must have already fallen in love with each other. You came to beg me, I'm afraid it's not for Sister Xi'er's side, but for your mother who won't, right? ”

"Well, my mother doesn't eat oil and salt, and I really don't know how to convince her, so I can only come and beg the old lady." Liu Xian said frankly.

The old lady pondered for a while and agreed, "If you are really sincere to Sister Xi, go home and wait for the news." I can't promise anything, but do your best. ”

"Thank you, old lady, for making it happen." Liu Xian knelt in front of the old lady.

The old lady asked people to call Liu and Xiao Fang over.

"I came to you today to talk about Sister Xi'er." The old lady said with her eyes half-closed.

"You're worried about Sister Xi again, didn't you say that I'll come back to see you after the New Year?" Liu said.

Since Sister Xi left, the old lady has been unhappy about what she has done.

"It's not like this, I thought that Sister Xi was about to get married, and she hadn't told her a suitable family affair over there. I think it's good, what do you think? ”

Liu raised his eyebrows and said, "It's a natural match." ”

Xiao Fang said the same.

The old lady nodded slightly.

"Now there is some trouble, and I need your help as an uncle." The old lady will tell you what is going on.

The Liu family and the Xiao Fang family got together and discussed.

The old lady continued: "Fourth daughter-in-law, it's up to you to talk to your sister-in-law and let her persuade the Zhong family, right?" ”

Xiao Fang's was puzzled: "I heard that the Zhong family is most anxious about Liu Xian's family affairs, as if they are intent on marrying the Wang family." Where is the girl of the Wang family compared to Sister Xi, if we go to the door and say, the Zhong family will definitely be happy, right? Why bother with my sister-in-law as the matchmaker? ”

Xiao Fang's sister-in-law, Zhong, is a sister to Liu Xian's mother, so it is most appropriate for her to say it.

"I'm afraid you don't know, if the Zhong family is willing to enter the door, Liu Xian will not go to great lengths to ask the old lady here. He must have run out of ideas and didn't want to argue with his mother about it, so he came over. Liu explained.

When Xiao Fang heard this, he showed embarrassment, and said: "My sister-in-law is a very spicy person, I may not be able to persuade her, I can only give it a try." ”

My brother's family affairs are prosperous and declining, and my brother's words are useless, so I listen to my sister-in-law.

"You can go with confidence, whether your sister-in-law is willing or not, we will always bring it, and let the Zhong family be prepared. When it really doesn't work, then I will persuade my brother that he has to settle this matter anyway. Liu cheered up Xiao Fang's family. She made up her mind, this time she offended her younger brother and sister Zhong, and she also had to talk to her brother and finalize the matter.

In this way, Xiao Fang's clan was much bolder.

I'm not afraid that this won't happen.

didn't think about it, she went to tell Xiao Zhong, and Xiao Zhong immediately responded.

The next day, Xiao Zhong went to the door to tell her sister about it.

"Why did you come here in a hurry? Is there news from Wen'er? Zhong looked at his sister and asked.

Xiao Zhong rarely goes out, so Zhong guesses that she is for Wen'er.

Xiao Zhong shook his head and said, "Sister, it's not Wen'er." I'm here for Xian'er's family business. ”

"Xian'er's family? Who asked you to come, which girl is it, and how are the people? Zhong was instantly interested.

Since Xian'er doesn't like Wang Liying, it's okay to change to another girl, as long as Xian'er likes it.

Xiao Zhong said: "It's the ninth lady of the Zhang family in Baoding Mansion, the one we saw on Xian'er Zhuangzi." ”

"No, absolutely not!" Zhong said categorically.

Xiao Zhong bit his lip, was silent for a while, and said, "Sister, you can't let Xian'er delay like this." I came to persuade you, not because my sister-in-law found me, but because I think the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and Xian'er has always refused to marry, so it is consumed. If you don't allow him this time, he doesn't know how long it will take. He can wait, but we have to wait? ”

Zhong said with a cold face: "He is not afraid to wait, I have nothing to scruple about." ”

"Sister, you have to think not only for Xian'er, but also for yourself. Xian'er is the only seedling in the family, and the old lady and brother-in-law spoil him to the sky. He is not married, you and your brother-in-law can't hold your grandson, will your brother-in-law think it's Xian'er's fault? No, he will only say that you have repeatedly refused to let Xian'er marry this girl and that girl, delaying Xian'er. I'm afraid that my attitude towards you will also change. Xiao Zhong persuaded from the bottom of his heart: "Besides, with such a son, he always has to march with the Qi family to fight, if there is a case, what do you say?" I'm because of Wen'er's incident, and I don't want anyone to regret it like me. ”

Although Xiao Zhong doesn't have a son, she has another son, and she has a grandson. And the Zhong family only has Liu Xian, if Liu Xian has any accidents, she will have no one to rely on.

Xiao Zhong said it implicitly, but Zhong understood that if the old man blamed her for Xian'er's marriage, it would not be good. If Xian'er has a case in the future, and does not leave a queen, the master will definitely take a concubine, and there will be no place for her at that time.

Zhong pondered, and his attitude seemed to loosen a little.

"You just let Miss Zhang Jiajiu enter the door and restrain her under your nose, what's so difficult about this. When they give birth, you can just bring them over and raise them yourself. Besides, Miss Zhang's family also looks like Zhong Zi, which will inevitably make Xian'er confused, and when she gives birth to a child, she may not be the same color as she is now. Xian'er may get tired of it too? ”

It is important to have a grandchild as soon as possible.

Zhong felt that Xiao Zhong's words were reasonable, and finally responded.

Liu Xian made a marriage to Zhang Lingxi as he wished, and just waited for Sister Xi and Lu to marry her.

Time is like a white horse passing by, and for a while, Zhang Lingxi is about to be in time, and a good day is approaching.

"Sister Xi has grown up in the blink of an eye, and we are also getting old." The fourth aunt, Xiao Ji, helped Zhang Lingxi choose the fabric, prepared a new cut of clothes, and held it up to the Liang family: "Second sister-in-law, do you see the color of this piece of fabric, does it line Sister Xi?" ”

"This lotus color is really very flattering to her, elegant and not cold, not only to meet the scene, but also to shine on people." Liang thought that Sister Xi was about to catch up, and couldn't help but smile, looking at anything.

Xiao Ji's thousands of choices, and they also think that this lotus color is the best-looking: "Sister Xi is beautiful, and she stands out in everything she wears." ”

"I still have good materials there, my brother specially brought them from Suzhou, you go with me to pick one, and wait for the ready-to-wear workshop to make two clothes for Sister Xi, and also for Sister Yu and Sister Han." Liang said kindly.

Xiao Ji excused himself and said: "Sister Yu is already married, where can I still grab clothes with my sister." In the summer, Sister Han only made two clothes. You keep the material for Sister Xuan'er, she is when she grows tall, and the clothes should be cut diligently. ”

Liang said: "That can't be without Sister Yu and Sister Han, I don't have other skills, it's still okay to use a private house to make clothes." ”

Yang's daughter went back to her parents' house, but Liang didn't say to make her a dress, Sister Yu was not there, Liang was thinking about Sister Yu, and the intimacy was visible.

"Then thank you second sister-in-law." Xiao Ji inherited Liang's love.

After picking out the fabric, the two of them took it to Sister Xi'er to look at.

Zhang Lingxi was accompanying Sister Xuan to study, and when she saw the second aunt and the fourth aunt coming over, she said with a smile: "Sister Xuan finally hid from me, and the second aunt, you chased after me again." ”

"That's it, and I brought a helper!" Sister Xuan put down the book and laughed with Zhang Lingxi.

Jokes are jokes, Zhang Lingxi and Sister Xuan still saluted their elders before they started to fight again.

"I thought you didn't have a clean time, so I asked you to learn more from your ninth sister, but you even intensified and brought your ninth sister badly." Liang "scolded". Sister Xuan is the meat of her heart, she is afraid of falling when she holds it in her hand on weekdays, and she is afraid of melting in her mouth, so she has developed a temperament that is not afraid of heaven and earth.

Sister Xuan pursed her lips and said: "The trees in the forest are still hundreds of thousands of appearances, you always let me learn from others, but you think, if everyone in the world is the same, how boring it should be." ”

"It's just that you're crooked." Liang smiled and poked Sister Xuan'er's head, and said, "I picked out a few pieces of cloth with your fourth aunt, and you helped your ninth sister pass by." ”

"Going to make clothes again?" Zhang Lingxi was a little surprised, and said, "When I came back, didn't my grandmother just ask someone to make one for me?" ”

"Grandmothers are grandmothers, and we are us. This is my heart and your fourth aunt's heart, and you are not allowed to refuse. Liang said busily.

Xiao Ji also said: "Girls should wear like flowers, and more clothes are better." ”

Sister Xuan happily went to pick up the fabric, and said in her mouth: "Fourth aunt, I also think that girls should have more clothes, but my mother always refuses to make me new clothes." ”

The Liang family is now simple, and the things they wear, eat, and use are not as good as before.

At this time, she is in charge, how many pairs of eyes are watching, she is the daughter of a merchant, if she acts too conspicuously, people will say that she only knows how to pile up gold and silver, and has no self-cultivation. She is used to being looked down upon, but now that Lao Anren is holding her up, she can't lose Lao Anren's face.

"Then don't let your mother go this time, let her do you a few more." Liang smiled.

Sister Xuan smiled evilly, and joked: "Where is it so troublesome, Sister Nine has so many clothes here, anyway, she wants me to pass by, then I will simply take the materials that Sister Nine doesn't like." ”

"Okay, you just pick, help me pick all the colors that you think I don't like. Zhang Lingxi was amused by Sister Xuan'er's expression.

Sister Xuan blinked her eyes and said, "How can there be such a cheap thing, Sister Nine still has to thank me for something, so I am willing to help you choose." ”

"Got into the money hole." Liang smiled and glared at Sister Xuan again.

Sister Xuan'er shrunk her neck and asked, "Could it be that I am Fang?" I can still stuff it into the money eye, how much money can I stuff it. ”

In the laughter, Zhang Lingxi and Sister Xuan picked out clothes for the afternoon. (To be continued.) )
