Chapter 84: It's up to the matchmaker next
"How do you say so experienced?"
"Because I've seen a living example in Kamoikefang.; There is a family with a family disease, guessing that it is a certain generation of men who have brought the disease, the male does not pass on the female, the daughter is normal, but the son either died before the age of ten or did not live to be twenty-five years old, so it is a real orphan and widow. The old mother crossed half of the capital, married a daughter-in-law to the only surviving Dumiao, the bride learned that it was too late after entering the door, and her husband fell ill half a year after marriage, and she couldn't afford to be sick, and the daughter-in-law was three months pregnant at that time, and all kinds of worries outside the house, and finally she was tired to the point of miscarriage, and her husband swallowed his breath before the winter. The father-in-law's family resented the malicious deception of the in-laws, and did not let his daughter keep filial piety, so he remarried in the hot filial piety. ”
"There are so many stories about Duck Pond Fang."
"Yachifang is densely populated, all of them are flat-headed people, and each family has a story. This was a big farce at the time, the Yue family was not thin, the son-in-law was dying for a few days, the young daughter-in-law's cousin and cousin were guarding in Yachifang, and when they heard the cry, the people who went to the yamen to report the funeral went out, so they went directly to the house to take away the people and the dowry, and beat the matchmaker violently. ”
"Then why does the old woman have to find someone to marry someone who is prosperous?"
"It's very simple, the son must not live long, there are no relatives at home, and he can only rely on his daughter-in-law for his old age, and when the daughter-in-law gives birth safely, for the sake of his grandson, can his grandfather and uncles not reach out to help? The abacus is loud, who knew that the daughter-in-law here was tired and had a miscarriage, and their family was completely out of business. ”
Where have the girls who have lived in the Guogong Mansion since they were children heard such wonderful market gossip, everyone is dumbfounded, dumbfounded, and don't know what to say about this story.
Gu Yun rolled his eyes and pointed at Meilun, "Bai Ko is right, why should our clean girl marry a sick ghost with a hidden disease." First of all, please ask Uncle Yan to help pay attention, an old shopkeeper like him has a wide range of people, please let him go out, tell the truth about the family situation of the two sisters, don't hide it, and find someone who is really willing. ”
"Yes, Third Young Master." Bai Ko nodded in response.
The sisters burst into tears and laughed, and were supported by the girls to thank the young master.
"I just asked my wife for a favor, but I almost forgot about your trouble."
The girls immediately looked at Gu Yun with blank eyes, wondering what kind of grace it was.
Gu Yun pointed at Bai Ko, "You all have to thank her, Madame just agreed that from the beginning of the month next month, your three meals a day will be transferred to Wenling Yuan's account." ”
The girls looked dazed, and didn't react to what they meant, Bai Ko had already cheered and jumped with joy.
"Mrs. Xie! Third Young Master Xie! ”
"Mrs. Xie! Young Master Xie! Aunt Su followed behind Bai Ko and saluted and thanked her.
"Mrs. Xie! Young Master Xie! The girls hurriedly saluted, vaguely feeling that this was good news, but they still didn't understand it.
"Sisters, the eldest lady has allowed everyone to start cooking by themselves next month, and the sisters who are going to marry should take this opportunity to hone their cooking skills. Bai Ko explained with a smile on his face.
"Yikes!" The beautiful sister's face suddenly turned hot and red, and she was too shy to hold her face, and the others laughed.
Gu Yun was infected by the joy of the girls, and she couldn't close her smile, but when her eyes swept to Bai Ko, she faintly felt that she was unpleasant about being designed.
Xiao Qian Xiaojing, who had been guarding the main room, heard the excitement in the front yard, and sneaked over to snoop, only to find that the young master was here, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Gu Yun let the girls make a fuss, and went back to the house to review their homework.
Meilun packed up her feelings, followed up the main room with tea, and then waited quietly outside the study, while Bai Ko quickly arranged the new benefits that would start next month.
She will do two meals in the morning and evening, and Aunt Su will be in charge of the lunch meal, she is the only one with good cooking skills, and it is no problem to make some home-cooked food and make a meal, but other girls are not good at all, in such a manpower distribution, first give priority to training Meilun's cooking skills.
Female red and middle feed are equally important boudoir teachers, just to be a girl, female red skills full marks, cooking skills zero points, now about to get married, can be practiced anything.
And being able to cook by yourself solves the problem of not having enough to eat, and the ingredients are prepared in a unified manner, and you can only work if you can eat.
In the early morning of the next day, Bai Ko ran to the west kitchen with the newly set five-day menu, when the ingredients had just been delivered that day, and they were still sorting and cleaning, Bai Ko pulled Yan Bo to the corner and muttered, Yan Bo stroked his beard, his eyes smiled, and he nodded again and again.
After making an appointment with Uncle Yan about the approximate time of the meeting in the morning, Bai Ko ran back to Wenling Courtyard and entrusted the matter to Aunt Su, because when Uncle Yan had time to come over for a walk, Bai Ko himself was either in the school yard or in the east kitchen.
Since Uncle Yan was invited to be a matchmaker, it was also appropriate for him to come over to see people, and Aunt Su would act as an elder and lead the girls to talk to Ermen.
So after talking to Aunt Su, Bai Ko began to cook breakfast for the third young master, steamed a pot of two-color hair cake, wrapped a few pieces in oiled paper, and rushed to the second door to bribe the mother-in-law guarding the door.
The mother-in-law accepted the benefits, and promised to notify Wenling Yuan when Uncle Yan came.
The arrangements that should be made have been done, everyone waited for the young master to go out step by step, and today the third young master routinely went to the big school field in Bajingfang, and the arrow sleeves with a blue background and white waves showed a clean and neat temperament.
Gu Yun went out, and everyone began to get busy, and Bai Ko went to the school to learn the last few moves of basic boxing with Aunt Wu.
Many people in the school are talking about yesterday's farce, complaining that the third old lady is old and confused, and dares to send Diao Nu to make a big fuss in the Guogong Mansion, the third master is just a concubine, it is not easy for him to have today's achievements in the officialdom, he came out step by step, and yesterday was such a trouble, and the old face of the third master was lost.
The female nurses are all aunts, they know a lot of past events in the house, chatting and chatting, and when it comes to the few ceremonies and rest banquets that the female dependents will attend during the hot filial piety period, the three old ladies can always pick bones in the eggs, there is no place that can satisfy her, so that the upper and lower stomachs are dissatisfied, if it is not for the face of the third lady is the brother of the first country, and it is hot filial piety, the old lady endured this breath, and then the relatives were weak, except for the three festivals a year, basically no contact.
Judging from yesterday's situation, the third old lady didn't think that she had anything wrong at the beginning, and she still held the third lady's signboard, and kicked her nose more and more.
Bai Ko practiced martial arts for an hour, listened to the old gossip of the head, and ran back to Wenling Courtyard in high spirits, the mother-in-law guarding the door winked at her, and Bai Ko smiled back with a knowing smile.
In Wenling Courtyard, everyone is joking about the four of them, the previous meeting with Uncle Yan was very smooth, and Meili didn't hide his own situation, just ask to marry someone who is well-off, Uncle Yan said that he understood, the two sides broke up happily, and the next thing was to wait for news.
Bai Ko made a few amusement words, carried warm water back to the room to change clothes, and then did not dare to delay for a moment to go to the east kitchen
