Wan Rou went to Prince Rui's mansion to ask to see the county lord, although she was first embarrassed by the doorman, and then ridiculed and scolded by the county lord, but the final goal was achieved. The county lord said that he would rectify the three girls of Wen Mansion, whether it was for her or not, anyway, this breath was out! She just wants everyone to know that she Li Wanrou can depire herself, but not everyone can despise herself!

The next day, the county lord specially sent someone to send a painting to the second master of the Wen family, which was packed in a box of rosewood and no one dared to open it. When the second master saw that his face changed greatly, he summoned the third girl to the study and reprimanded her severely, and grounded her in the house and did not go out. I heard that she had to kneel in the small Buddha hall every day to copy Buddhist scriptures, eat three vegetarian meals, and suffer unspeakably after only one day.

There is no secret in the upper circles of the capital, and the more such things spread, the faster they spread. Within three days, everyone knew that Miss Wen was punished because of Wan Rou. Wan Rou's name and deeds were spread loudly, and people who didn't know it now all knew it.

But when those things reach the mouths of those sharp-mouthed people in the inner house, how can there be a little bit of good words? Wanrou's reputation is out, but it is shameful for big families.

Many people have listed the Li family sisters as never to be in contact with each other, and even the reputation of the Jin family sisters has been affected. The Feng family couldn't say anything about the bitterness in her heart, and the old lady couldn't say much because of the affection of her relatives and the face of the Feng family. Although the eldest lord ignored the affairs of the inner house, he also listened to some rumors, and he couldn't speak directly, and secretly told the Feng family to discipline the girls strictly.

Aunt Li also ordered Wanrou to reflect and not to go out of the room for half a step every day. She was very reluctant to go, and proposed to move out to live, but Feng naturally couldn't agree.

You live with your brothers and sisters at ease, if anyone dares to chew the root of their tongue, they will sue me. Feng comforted his sister, there is no shortage of new things in the capital, rare things, and big things can't be spread for a few days. A while ago, the fight between Hao Shizi and the second prince was in an uproar, and no one talked about it anymore after only a few days? Besides, the left and right are just awkward little things in the little girl's house, who will take it seriously? If my sister made a fortune and didn't want me to move out, I wouldn't dare to stop it, but I couldn't let my sister out right now.

I was both ashamed and moved by my sister's words, if I had to move out, it would be mine that would be not. Our girls came from a small place in Cangzhou, and they had no intention of socializing with those rich and noble families, but they just affected Yuyi and them. The other nieces are still counting, but I am watching coldly, Yuyi is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, dignified and generous, and is a person with great talents. The partial life was stirred up by Wan Rou like this, and he didn't even have a door recently. Aunt Li was afraid that this would delay Yuyi's marriage.

It is said that this woman has three most important things in her life, one is reincarnation, the second is marriage, and the third is to have children! If you are reincarnated well, you will have no worries about food and clothing in the first fifteen or six years; If you marry well, you will be comfortable and comfortable in the middle of thirty or forty years, rich and healthy; My son was born well, even if I have been unsatisfactory before, I can count on my son to earn a life and catch up with Yu Qing for ten years and eight years! In this way, the most important thing for a woman in this life is to marry a good family, and she counts on this for most of her life's happiness.

She is only eleven, and she is still four years away from Jilu, and she is even earlier to get married. The Feng family didn't worry about this, but it was as if it was time to find his mother-in-law's house, and there was another incident. But don't worry, wait until it stops for a while.

This is exactly what Aunt Zhongli is thinking, and she is also worried about this matter. Originally, it was planned to let Wanruo go out with the Feng family to socialize more, and a female hundred families asked, if the wife and wife of which family were in love, they asked a matchmaker to come to the door. At that time, Aunt Li was picking and choosing, and she was like choosing a good one. But what else to pick at the moment? It would be nice to have a matchmaker take the initiative to come to the door.

I never thought that in less than three days, there was really a matchmaker who came to the door to propose marriage, and the object was Wanru. This matchmaker's surname is Ma, and her family lives in the south of the city, specializing in protecting the children and girls of noble families. Seeing her, Feng was naturally happy, and hurriedly accompanied her to Qunfang Pavilion in person.

Since it is a media, it is natural to introduce the situation of the other party. Ma Matchmaker didn't wait to say, first with a smile on her face, even her eyes were shining, and when it came to the man's family lintel, it was really loud. When the girl got married, she was immediately a young grandmother who was respected by everyone, calling a slave to wear gold and silver, and she would enjoy endless glory and wealth for a lifetime.

Aunt Li was pleasantly surprised when she heard this, but she thought about it again in an instant, if she was such a great person, how could she think of letting Wanrou be her daughter-in-law?

Sure enough, Mrs. Ma praised the man's family background for a while, and then said after a sigh of relief: The second young master of the merchant was born weak and sickly, relying on the Jiang family's money, and the precious and rare medicinal materials were thrown into it like a reclamation, and it was only sixteen. I've seen the second young master of Shang, who is talented in appearance, and Yushu is in the wind, but he is a little thinner. A while ago, a master gave a fortune teller, saying that he had to find a fate with fire and lack of gold, and the eight-character master father died early. After getting married, everything goes smoothly, both children are rich and healthy, and husbands and wives grow old together in harmony!

Can the illness of the second young master of the merchant be strict? Aunt Leigh heard some clues and asked with a frown.

不严zhòng,不严zhòng。 Ma Matchmaker waved her hand again and again, eating, drinking, and Lazar without delay, and she could still chant poems and do the right thing. Mrs. Shang said that as soon as they get married, let the newlyweds live alone, so as not to have too many rules for the in-laws on the upper three floors. Ma'er Hutong has three entrances and three exits, and it is so comfortable to close the door and live your own small life. If the lady is willing, give me the eight characters, and the merchant will have to merge again. As long as this matter is settled, the merchant will immediately send over 10,000 taels of engagement silver! Speaking of ten thousand taels, her eyes brightened.

Why is it so urgent? Aunt Li glanced at Feng's family, and the doubts in her heart became heavier and heavier.

Ma Matchmaker smiled when she saw this, I have been doing this job for most of my life, which newcomer is not a white-headed old man, with many children and grandchildren, many blessings and many longevity? The main thing is that I have to ponder in my heart before protecting the media, and I can't protect the unreliable media. The capital is not big, but it is not small, and the famous family is well known to passers-by. I won't say much about the foundation of the business, I guess my wife has heard of it. The second young master of the merchant I mentioned is the son-in-law of the merchant house, a serious master! Because of his frail and sickly body, his family, from his grandmother to his brothers and sisters, all took care of him. Before the merchant let out the wind, no matter which girl he married, the dowry was the same, the house, the Zhuangzi, the shop, the real money!

The more she said this, the more bottomless Aunt Leigh's heart became. Although she has only been in the capital for a short time, she also knows the famous merchants. Their ancestors were merchants, and the ancestor emperor donated hundreds of thousands of quintals of rice free of charge when he was fighting the country, and later donated medicinal materials. Without their family's donation, the ancestral emperor's country would not have been able to be defeated so quickly. Later, the founding of the country was canonized, and the merchants naturally received rewards. Merchants are agile and very good at doing business, and with the foundation left by their ancestors, future generations will carry it forward. Nowadays, there are not a few businessmen who are in business and officials, and all of them have made remarkable achievements.

In business, Quan Dayu's rice grain and medicinal materials are almost monopolized by merchants, and their business also involves jade, inns, rouge gouache...... In short, what to make money, and do not dislike the small business, a copper plate is willing to suffer hardships.

As an official, the old man of the merchant used to be born in Hanlin, and he went through the imperial examination, which is really knowledgeable. Now the old man is at home for the elderly, the eldest son works as a waiter in the household department, the second son runs the business of rice grain, and the third son takes care of the medicinal material business. In the next generation, the eldest grandson is the deputy commander of the Imperial Forest Army, who often walks in the palace and befriends the eldest prince. There are also a few sons and nephews of side branches, although they are inconspicuous petty officials, but they are all promising because of their youth.

Merchants do not lack silver, do not lack of contacts, in Dayu is one of the four famous families. If there are things in the world that they can't do, I'm afraid there are very few. But such a difficult person to climb, why did he suddenly send a matchmaker to propose his relatives?

Although the Jin family is an imperial businessman, they occasionally deal with merchants when doing business on weekdays, but they can't get in touch with the businessmen's serious lineage. Feng was also strange in his heart, and suddenly remembered the rumors he heard when he went out to socialize a while ago. Mrs. Shang invited the abbot from Baoguo Temple to come back and recite the scriptures, and she recited for three days and three nights, and I heard that it was to pray for the blessing of her second son. Could it be that Second Young Master Shang is seriously ill and wants to find someone to rejoice?

Thinking of this, she winked at Aunt Leigh. Aunt Li understood this, but she didn't want to block the road, so she said with a smile: I am a widow and unemployed, and I am far away from the elders of the clan, so I can't make up my mind about such a big matter for a while. You go back for the time being, and I'll discuss it with my son. As for these eight characters, the girl's family can't give it lightly.

The sage has a precept: follow your parents at home, follow your husband when you marry, and follow your son when you die. Aunt Li said that it was a good reason to discuss with her son, and Mrs. Ma had to agree.

Before leaving, she repeatedly said: Mrs. Li must think about it, this is a good thing that falls from the sky. If the lady gets close to the merchant, it will be smooth sailing in the future. Even if you don't think about the whole Li family, you have to think about the remaining two children. They have a brother-in-law like that, what else do they have to worry about for the rest of their lives? I heard that the eldest young master is a good reader, and he will participate in the autumn festival next year. There are a lot of Qiuqiu High Schools every three years, and the big red list is posted all over the city, and the number of dense names can't be counted. But there are a few people who really enter the court and become officials, and they don't have to rely on relationships and backgrounds! Merchants can speak in the court, and it is easy to recommend an official. The eldest young master earned a life for his wife and came back, and the lady raised her eyebrows.

Aunt Li was a little moved when she heard this, and when she sent her away, she discussed it with the Feng family.

I heard that Second Young Master Shang was sick, and I suspected that he couldn't be well, otherwise how could a great good thing fall on Wanruo's head? Aunt Leigh is not stupid and can figure out this simple truth. The merchant wants to marry his daughter-in-law, and the girls in the capital are waiting in line, what can't they find? But if you marry a sick person, maybe one day you will become a new widow. A well-off family who wants a little more face will not covet the wealth and power of the businessman. Who would push a good girl into the fire pit?

Feng Shi thought for a while and said: Anyway, you didn't agree, I ordered someone to inquire. Maybe it's not a fatal disease, it's just a weakness in the womb. She didn't dare to say it too much, if her sister was willing to do so, wouldn't she have said the wrong thing? Especially the last words of Ma Matchmaker's wife can really move people's hearts. What her sister is widowed for, it is nothing more than that her children have a future, especially Brother Yu. Marrying a merchant is equivalent to boarding the road to the sky, and Brother Yu has such strong support behind him, and he is not afraid of being buried even if he has the ability.

Qunfang Pavilion has only three upper rooms and side rooms on both sides, Aunt Li and two girls live in the upper room, Brother Yu occupies one side of the side room for living and reading, and the rest of the side rooms live with slaves and maids and mothers-in-law. Just now, Mrs. Ma came, and Aunt Li let Wanru go inside to avoid it. Through the soft partition, although I couldn't hear them clearly, I also listened to them.

It was as if he had been blushing, and the embroidery needle pricked his fingers several times, obviously absent-minded. Wan Rou was reflecting in the room, feeling uncomfortable. She leaned over to the partition and put her ear on it to listen carefully, and then whispered to it as if listening.

My sister is going to marry into a high gate this time. Her tone was sour, with a hint of jealousy, the merchant is a real family, the second young master of the merchant is a big house, and if my sister marries in the past, she will be a serious second young grandmother. And they let you pass alone, so you don't have to set rules in front of your mother-in-law every day, and you have the final say when you close the door, how comfortable!

Sister Hugh wants to talk nonsense! Marriage events, parents' orders, matchmakers' words, how can you and I talk behind our backs? She scolded her sister, but her heart turned upside down.

Although she is honest, she is not lacking in heart and eye, and she is also very self-aware. With her appearance, talent, and net worth, which one can match the business? Although it is said that there is always a limit to marrying a woman from a high family and marrying a wife from a low family. She wondered in her heart, isn't the second young master of the merchant a long-term illness that is difficult to recover? Even if she is a girl's family, she has heard about a big family marrying a daughter-in-law.

What do mothers and aunts do when they talk and bite their ears? I can't even hear clearly. Wan Rou pouted and complained, it seemed that the grounding had not made her reflect in the slightest.

Oops! As if with a soft snort, bright red blood came out of his fingers. She hurriedly squeezed it with her hands, put it in her mouth and sucked it again.

The next day, the person sent by the Feng family to inquire replied, saying that the second young master of the merchant was sick in bed, just as Ma Matchmaker said that it was the same as eating, drinking, and Lasa, but it was all solved in bed. The merchant was anxious to find someone to be happy, but he was unwilling to put the threshold too low, so he asked a few and was rejected.

The Li family is not prominent, but it is better than having the emperor's royal seal. As the saying goes, if you lose your horse, you don't know if you're blessed, and this is not true at all. If it weren't for Wanrou's noisy noise a while ago, the Li family would not have entered the sight of the merchants. In other words, if it weren't for Wanrou's unreliable greed for wealth, the merchant would not be so cheap.

Aunt Li saw that the merchant was indeed happy, so she completely dispelled the idea of getting married. But within three days, Mrs. Ma came to the door again.

The girls of our Li family are innocent, and they will not marry someone for a few dollars, let alone take the rest of their lives. Although our master went, the Keli family is also a big family in Cangzhou, and the family rules and regulations are very strict, so they will definitely not let their own girls go to others to be happy! This time, Aunt Li said it with a straight face, and there was no room for negotiation at all.

Ma matchmaker is used to dealing with people, and when she matches marriages, she is not always treated as a guest. The two families didn't like each other, but they didn't fight, and there were also families who got married in the end. She saw that Aunt Leigh was annoyed, and said with a smile: I can understand that Mrs. Leigh is angry, all because I didn't tell the truth completely. The merchant did not hide it from the outside world, and if Mrs. Li blamed me, it would be better to blame me.

This is the truth, otherwise it would be impossible for the Feng clan to find out the news lightly. After all, the merchant is a family, how can he do the business of stealing chickens and dogs? Spread out all the qiē, both parties are willing to do it.

She saw that Aunt Li's face softened a little when she heard this, and then she continued: Mrs. Merchant said that if Mrs. Li is willing to marry a girl in, she will naturally treat her like a girl. Mrs. Shang heard that the eldest prince in the house was extremely talented, and wanted to introduce him to a good teacher. Today's Confucian Pei Zhenglin is a frequent customer of the business, and the merchant wife can match, as for whether Pei can nod or not, it depends on the fate of the eldest prince.

Aunt Li's eyes lit up when she heard this, she had heard of Pei Zhenglin, and Master Li didn't mention it much when he was alive. Pei Zhenglin was born in the two lists, full of economic wealth, proud bones, entered the Hanlin to worship the prime minister, and even went to the book to retire to the mountains and forests when he was at the most beautiful. He devoted himself to the study of the law-making, and after his retirement, he devoted himself to revising the current law. At present, the law implemented by Dayu is revised by him, and I heard that it is still being further improved. If you can get such a famous person's guidance, you can embark on the road of official career even if you don't have to participate in the imperial examination!

I have to admit that this condition thrown by the merchant is very attractive, and it is in the heart of Aunt Li. Seeing that Aunt Li was a little loose, Mrs. Ma struck while the iron was hot.

It's not that merchants can't afford to spend money and take medicine. Ginseng with thick wrists, fresh deer antler velvet, thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, and any precious medicinal herbs are willing to be put inside. Second Young Master Shang's health is not good, if I say it, it must be aimed at some kind of immortal. A while ago, Mrs. Shang invited a senior monk to do it, and now she chooses a daughter-in-law who can be prosperous according to the eight characters, and the second young master's health will improve. When the time comes, the second young master will think of the benefits of Miss Li, so naturally he will not mess around outside. Besides, the in-laws like it, and they don't live together, what else can be left except for happiness? Mrs. Leigh was busily rejected first, which is a good thing that is hard to find with a lantern!

Second Young Master Shang's body is really good? Aunt Leigh thought for a moment and asked.

That's natural, even if Lord Yama wants someone, you have to see whose family it is! Mrs. Ma patted her chest and replied, feeling that there was a door to this matter.

Aunt Li was a little conflicted in her heart, she knew that the merchant was a real big family, and if she really wanted to marry, she would definitely not have a hard life. But what kind of days are hard days? Matter. Since Master Li went, she knew the pain of widowhood.
