Chapter 474: Chengnan Horse Mansion
Mrs. Wang frowned and sighed, "To propose to withdraw from the family is to tear the skin, no matter what, you have to find a way to withdraw the family, otherwise, if Cuixiang marries in, she will only be bullied and looked down upon by the Ma family." ”
Wang Changsheng didn't speak, after all, this kind of thing is different from business dealings, it is about etiquette and human feelings.
But since her own mother agreed, she wanted to come to the eldest daughter of the Zhu family and made up her mind, otherwise according to her temperament, she would not have the guts.
In the early morning of the next day, it was still a good weather, and after Mrs. Wang cleaned up, she took the marriage letter and tokens and sat in the carriage arranged for her by Wang Changsheng, took Aunt Lin, and the carriage drove to the matchmaker's house.
I have already inquired in advance, and for the old residents, they basically know each other.
The main thing is that Aunt Lin and this matchmaker are still handkerchiefs.
When the three of them met, of course, it was a greeting, and Mrs. Wang was an anxious person, and she didn't beat around the bush, and directly explained her intentions.
Because of the young lady of the Guogong Mansion behind the Wang family, coupled with Aunt Lin's face, the matchmaker did not show dissatisfaction.
After all, the family affair was made by oneself, and now she is breaking the contract with her own hands, for the matchmaker, it is the same as slapping herself in the mouth.
Mrs. Wang took out a purse, which was made by Zhu Cuixiang, and it was filled with half a tael of silver, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this kid is really thoughtful, and even took this into account.
She affectionately put the purse into the matchmaker's hand, "His aunt, we all understand the truth, your beauty Cuixiang was also very moved in her heart, but now she has a pair of five-year-old brothers and sisters, and the family's dowry and silver have been used to treat her deceased father, so the family is now in addition to the three big living people, that is the family is poor, the Ma family is now a big family, and the two families are already not the right households, so it is better to retire this family matter." ”
The matchmaker narrowed her eyes slightly, knowing in her heart that she was afraid that the reason for withdrawing from her relatives was not so simple, but she pinched the silver in her purse, glanced at the exquisite purse, and moved her heart.
After all, the divorce has no impact on the man, but it has a great impact on the woman.
It's just that this matter is not as simple as imagined.
If the daughter of the Zhu family is rich and powerful, the withdrawal of relatives will have no impact on the reputation of the Ma family, but now that the Ma family is rich and powerful, the matchmaker knows that Mrs. Ma must agree, because in the past few years, Mrs. Ma has seen her face, and her nostrils are facing up, let alone any New Year's ceremony.
I think I am extremely dissatisfied with this family affair, and I don't even look down on her as a matchmaker.
"Mrs. Wang, to tell you the truth, Mrs. Ma must be happy to see it, because now the aunt that Ma Chen is accepting is the daughter of her sister's family, but because the daughter is a concubine, the master of the Ma family can't look down on it, so she became an aunt, it is said that the aunt is now very favored, often living in the main room, I also know the daughter of the Zhu family, the most gentle, I am afraid that if I marry the past, I will also be trampled under the feet of the aunt."
After the matchmaker figured it out, she simply stopped hiding it and told Mrs. Wang the truth here, the key is the young lady behind Mrs. Wang, that is a character, if you are lucky enough to catch up with her, then the good days of your family will come.
She did this because she wanted to sell it to Mrs. Wang.
"Really? If so, this family affair must be retreated, Cuixiang's temperament is too soft, and it also carries two drags, how can there be a good life if you marry in! ”
Hearing this, Mrs. Wang paid even more attention, what kind of family is this, before Mrs. Zhengfang entered the door, she gave her son an aunt, or her niece, so how to stand up when the main room enters the door.
Mrs. Wang herself is the main room, she has suffered from her husband's concubines over the years, and she has also affected her son, if it weren't for the young lady to come to the rescue, I am afraid that the grass on the grave of her and her son will grow very high now.
So at this time, she is the most empathetic.
"Mrs. Ma agrees, that Master Ma may not, I heard that the person values reputation the most, this matter may not be as simple as imagined, so let's strike while the iron is hot, Mrs. Wang, you go to Mafu with me to make things clear directly, so as not to have long nights and dreams."
The matter has come to this point, and the matchmaker knows that this matter is done, and Mrs. Wang will definitely accept her favor.
And the Mrs. Ma looked at herself as a high-minded person, which also made the matchmaker feel very angry, and now the woman took the initiative to withdraw from the marriage, to see what she was proud of.
She thought to herself, your Ma family looks down on people, and others may not be able to look down on your Ma family.
Several of the women were all from Shuangli, and they got into the carriage and drove towards Mafu in the south of the city.
Half an hour later, the carriage stopped, Mrs. Wang got out of the carriage, looked at the courtyard opposite, and thought to herself, this horse mansion is indeed rich.
What catches your eye is two red vermilion lacquer gates, and at the top of the gate hangs a pine plaque, on which the dragon flies and the phoenix dances with two big characters "Mafu." ”
On the right side of the house, there is a tall locust tree, at this time, most of the locust flowers hang on the branches, and most of them fall on the wall and the ground.
Looking from the periphery of the mansion, you can see that the people here are either rich or expensive.
The matchmaker stepped forward to knock on the door, and the doorkeeper opened the side door, looked at several women with slanted eyes, and asked for a while, "Is there a post?" ”
"Excuse me?"
A few people looked at each other, and there was no way to pay respects.
The matchmaker secretly spit on a few words, Mrs. Ma has really changed, it's only been a few years, and she really thinks she is a high-ranking family, what else do you need to pay tribute to.
"If you tell your wife, you will say that I am the matchmaker of the Niu family, and I have something important to discuss with your wife."
The matchmaker speaks crisply and neatly, straight to the point.
glanced at the little girl, stood there with a motionless expression, snorted disdainfully, and still wanted benefits, it has always been the benefits that others give her wherever she goes.
Just like today.
The little girl glared at the matchmaker, but she still didn't dare to slack off, you must know that most of the young masters and young ladies in the house have reached the time to say goodbye.
If you offend anyone, you can't offend the matchmaker.
Sure enough, when the little guy came back, his face changed and he enthusiastically invited the three of them in.
Walk in only to find that here is still another scene, three hanging flower gatehouse, four sides copy the verandah, walk through the verandah is the main entrance of five, the barrel tile loach ridge above, the door and window, are all fine carved fresh patterns, and there is no vermilion powder decoration, below is the bluestone paving, there is also a rockery flowing water, not far away there is a corner of the pavilion hidden in the green trees.
Mrs. Wang secretly smacked her tongue, not knowing how the girl of the Zhu family would feel when she saw such wealth.
At this time, her mood was mixed.
Thinking in my heart that Zhu Cuixiang marrying in is brocade clothes and jade food, and thinking that with that aunt pressed on her head, she must not be tortured to death, plus her younger brothers and sisters, the Ma family is rich, and I believe that she may not be willing to raise a son for the Zhu family!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Wang's waist was straight.
It's just a pity that things in the world often backfire. (To be continued.) )
