Chapter 34: Freedom
The first update
Huiya was stunned, she didn't really care about her marriage date, she was like everyone else, and she was surprised that the person Xi'er was going to marry was An Hai. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Huiwen looked at her sister, her focus was not on the sea, but on going overseas.
"Sister, so, you also want to go with Cousin Hai?" Hui Wen frowned.
"I guess, it's good to go out and have a look, I've heard that their women can go out on the streets at will, unlike us here. My mother didn't let me bind my feet, she just didn't want to lock me up, and now I can go out, I'm very happy. Xi'er laughed and jumped.
"We don't bind our feet, but who are the people who bind our feet?" Hui Ya couldn't help but despise it, in a real aristocratic family, there are not many people with bound feet, and most of the girls in the same countrymen's families like Zeng Fan are wrapped with small feet. The brook is unruly in their wave. She didn't make any friends.
"Okay, what are you talking about those useless things. So what do uncles and aunts mean by early marriage and simple marriage? "Huiwen is the eldest daughter after all, and she has a more comprehensive brain.
"Yes, I don't know what the emperor will say, so my father asked my mother to come over early in the morning to discuss. The main reason is that after their parents got married, they also left their hometown to study in the provincial capital, and their marriage and mother's dowry were also very simple. And later it was proved that they had only lived at home for a little more than a year, and their mother's dowry furniture was really rotten. Xi'er slowly persuaded, this was the main purpose of her coming today.
Xi'er is older than the twins, when the twins were young, they called Xi'er their aunt for a while, who made their third uncle a disciple of Zeng Fan, then Xi'er is in principle the same generation as their third uncle, so naturally they should be called aunt. Later, Li Ping listened awkwardly, mainly looking at her daughter's appearance and uncomfortable. Let them change their words, let them have their own opinions. Otherwise, Anhai's apprenticeship is not easy to worship, and it is poor. Although the name has been changed, Xiaoxi'er is determined in the hearts of the two sisters, and she still has the demeanor of the eldest sister.
"The dowry is a big deal, naturally my grandmother is in charge, but my sister, Huiya doesn't understand anything......" Huiwen is still worried, they often go to Zeng's house to play, because the little monkey often goes to church, but also comes back with foreign toys to coax them to have fun, play foreign toys, sometimes look at the little monkey's own translation of foreigners' books, they don't feel anything. But now what to say to let Huiya follow the little monkey to the place of foreigners, Huiwen's heart also chilled.
"My father meant that foreigners had a girls' school, and he wanted us to read it. Including Ge'er's fiancée, she is the youngest, and will let her live in the school, so that she can receive a good foreigner education. Xi'er still had a gentle smile on her face.
"That little fool has a fiancée?" Hui Yahu stood up.
"Who said he was a little fool, obviously quite smart." Huiwen patted his sister and turned back to Xi'er and smiled. Xiao Ge'er is actually not very familiar with the Huiwen sisters, but they are familiar with the four brothers who live in the Zeng family. Everyone played together, and then the name of the little fool was determined in the hearts of the two sisters.
"yes, if it weren't for him, we probably wouldn't be in such a hurry." Xi'er sighed softly, thinking about it, she still told Ge'er about asking to go out, this is always something to know, it is better to say it earlier.
"Alas, Uncle Zeng is really a great gentleman, and he is really educated." Huiya also sighed.
"I'll go back and tell my dad about that." Xi'er smiled and poked Huiya gently.
Huiya was stunned and hurriedly begged for mercy. This can be heard, but when it comes to it, it is more in line with Huiya's state of mind at this time, at best, Zeng Fan is willing to teach even a fool; But from another point of view, Zeng Fan taught a fool! I really haven't entered the door yet, and I offended my future father-in-law first.
"Okay, tell me what you think, it's you who will live in the future, and if you want to come here, Grandma He has to ask you, will you be scared or something, you don't have to reply to me, but you must go back to Grandma He." Xi'er smiled, she would not please the future sister-in-law, but when she came in, she also said to Huiya in advance, they were in a uproar, at this time, it was impossible for the two families to withdraw from their relationship, and the meaning of Huiya was not important at all, just like her parents didn't think to ask her yesterday. They can't do it, they have to find the best path for them out of all the paths they can take. But Xiaoxi'er didn't want to do this, no matter whether the He family and the Zeng family left the Tao for Huiya, but she felt that she had to talk to Huiya.
"I said no, can my grandparents agree?" Huiya was straightforward, spread her hands, and asked her sister and Xi'er.
"I think I can persuade my father and mother, after all, it is just a marriage, waiting for the emperor to make a will, and it is natural for the He family to withdraw from the family." Xi'er thought for a moment, but still smiled encouragingly at Huiya. She has no right to ask Huiya to be like herself. Besides, going out with An Hai by himself is more to avoid trouble, which is a way that has no choice. And Huiya obviously has a way to go.
"No, I want to go with you, to be able to walk on the street openly, to go out to shop, even if I buy a flower, I am happy." Huiya nodded firmly.
"Well, yes. Even my mother sometimes sees foreign women on the street and is very envious, to be able to walk on the street so casually, to be able to walk around the ocean like men, which in itself is enviable. Xi'er nodded, from birth to the present, she can only follow her father out of Beijing to have a look. But that's either on a boat, or in a sedan chair, in a car. It's impossible to go out and shop around. She was lucky, and when she returned to her hometown, she followed her uncles to their shop, but at that time, she was not a customer, but hid in the account room and watched the business outside.
And she is lucky, she also went out of Beijing with her parents and brothers, and she can be regarded as seeing some of the world. But the sisters of the He family really haven't even been out of the city, and when they go out, they go from one house to another, and there are a number of people they see. Going out and looking at the outside world, even if she was a little frightened in her heart, her heart was still full of yearning.
Huiwen finally opened her mouth wide this time, she really didn't know what to say. Envy my sister for having such an opportunity? Well, she was actually envious all along, but she didn't even dare to think about it. At this time, her sister was able to say it so calmly, and now she really thinks that her grandmother may have really considered it seriously before she chose the Zeng family for her sister. They should really be able to become a family.
Xi'er also thought so at this time, Huiya was more suitable for the Zeng family than Huiwen, and more suitable for her brother. However, she suddenly remembered the song again. Does this fool know that one of his ideas will affect so many people?
