"I think so, as soon as I want to call my eldest sister and cousin, I panic."

"Don't talk about you, I think it's a bit messy, this used to be my relationship with Prince Duan's mansion, in the mansion, your grandmother and aunt, you have to look at this level, if Sister Mei becomes the princess, alas, ......"

Feng Qin was a little depressed about this all day, and he didn't go out in the room.

In the evening, Feng Yuan came back from the court, and before the meal was served, Zhou hurriedly told Feng Yuan about it.

"What my aunt has decided, then do as she says, that's her family's business, she doesn't care if others gossip or not, let's do so much to do, you are in a hurry to find a princess for Prince Duan, and if you fall in love with Sister Mei, it's a big deal."

Feng Yuan has never cared much about the affairs of this inner house.

"Don't you think it's wrong? What can I call this generation in the future? ”

"It's not a headache for you, that's what the eldest brother and sister-in-law should worry about, my aunt asked you to inquire, you can inquire, it's another thing for the eldest brother and sister-in-law to disagree."

"I didn't discuss with you and figure out that I'm ugly, forget it, I'll go to sister-in-law tomorrow and knock on the side."

Soon after eating, the two of them were lying in bed.

Feng Yuan didn't take this matter to heart at all, and fell asleep after a while, but Zhou Shi turned it around, just feeling awkward.

Early the next morning, Zhou had breakfast and went to Xianghua Courtyard.

Zhang also happened to have a meal, and when he saw Zhou coming over, he said enthusiastically: "Brother and sister are here, have you eaten?" ”

"I've eaten it."

"Mother Wu, hurry up and serve tea, and some more fruit."

Zhou hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, don't be busy entertaining me, it's all a family, it's like receiving guests, I'm here to talk to you." ”

"Then sit down."

Zhou sat down, first chattered for a while, and then thought about getting to the point.

"Sister-in-law, Sister Mei seems to be born in November. She's going to be in time for next year's eleven. ”

"Yes, time flies so fast, in the blink of an eye, my daughter is an adult, and I always remember when she changed her teeth when she was a child. In the blink of an eye, they will all become big girls, and Sister Qin is less than a full year younger than Sister Mei, and she is about to become a big girl. ”

Zhou smiled and said, "When the children are older, we will be old." ”

"You're a few years younger than me. I don't look old at all, look at me, the wrinkles in the corners of my eyes are deep, and your skin is still delicate and a trace of wrinkles can't be seen, how to maintain it? ”

"I've made some hydrating ones myself with flower petals to help with wrinkles, and I'll have some for you later if you need them."

"Thank you, brother and sister."

"Sister-in-law, didn't you come a few days ago to Sister Mei in advance? Do you have a fancy? ”

Speaking of this, Zhou sighed. "It's not that you don't know, some people are rumoring that Sister Mei is infertile, and those people came to one and didn't come to the second one, Sister Mei said to herself that she wanted to stay with me for a few more years before marrying, but how can this girl's family afford to wait, and after that, they all want to get married, if they don't marry, it's not easy to marry when they're older."

"Marriage is not a matter of concern for us elders."

As she was talking, Mother Wu had already served tea and came over. Zhang motioned for Zhou to drink tea.

Zhou took a sip, put down the teacup, and said, "Sister-in-law, I want to mention to you about a family matter." The man's conditions are very good, the official position is bigger than our family, and the person is also handsome, anyway, the conditions are good, it's ......"

"It's just something, it's hard to be disabled. Or is there something flawed? ”

Zhou hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no, people are healthy, they are all very good, oops, I don't know how to say it." Zhou also felt a little unable to open his mouth.

"Our own concubine, you think about Sister Mei'er, if the other party's conditions are good and can accept Sister Mei'er's bad rumors before, what else do we have to say."

"The man is indeed the dragon among people, but he is inferior in generation."

"It doesn't matter if you are a senior, or if you are far away. I said brother and sister, don't hang your appetite, tell me, which young master is it? After Zhang finished speaking, he poured himself a cup of tea.

Zhou made up her mind, forget it, let's talk about it, anyway, she didn't think about getting Zhang to agree.

"It's my cousin, Prince Duan."

Zhang's hand holding the teacup suddenly loosened, and with a bang, the teacup fell to the ground, Zhou hurriedly walked over and asked with concern: "Sister-in-law, are you not hot?" ”

"No, no." Zhang called Wu's mother to come and clean up the broken teacup.

When Wu's mother went out, Zhang said with a sad face: "Brother and sister, if you want to help Prince Duan find a family matter, you can't find Sister Mei, Sister Mei is your niece, Prince Duan is your cousin, don't say that this is a parent, the name is not good, not to mention that Sister Mei has also spread bad rumors with him before, this is not easy to clarify, and if you make such a play again, wouldn't it make people watch the joke again?" ”

In this way, Zhang disagrees.

Zhou thought for a while and said, "I also think it's inappropriate, isn't this prince and Sister Mei getting along very well these days?" In fact, generations are also secondary, in the previous dynasty, there was also His Majesty marrying two sisters, aunts and nephews marrying a husband, this is not nothing, the royal family rarely cares about these, I am related to Prince Duan, and I have no blood relationship with Sister Mei, so to speak, the reason is a little far-fetched, but I think this has to look at Sister Mei'er's meaning, if Sister Mei agrees, those who are not of any generation do not matter anymore, isn't it? ”

"You're right, but I'm quite happy in my heart, do you want to broker this marriage for her?" Zhang felt that the Zhou family was embarrassed to play in a big house, how could Feng Mei marry Su Tian?

"I don't dare to think about it here, didn't the noble concubine come to our house yesterday? It's what she means, in fact, this family matter, the concubine plans to ask the Queen Mother directly, and she is also thinking about the relationship between our two families, so she asks me to ask your opinion first, and it is also to respect our Feng family, if she goes directly to the Queen Mother to ask for advice, her relationship with the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will definitely agree. ”

"I don't dare to call the shots in this matter, I'd better wait for your eldest brother to come back, and I'll discuss it with him."

"I know that you and your eldest brother love Sister Mei very much, and I also hope that you can respect Sister Mei'er's meaning, and the noble concubine didn't have to say that we had to agree, but everyone mentioned it, and I really can't find a reason to refuse."

"You're right, let's discuss this matter for a few days. I'll give you another answer. ”

"Hmm."

Zhou felt that why should he take this trouble and worry about this, it was better to throw his hand directly to Zhang. Let Zhang go to his own trouble, if you want to refuse, then Zhang will find a reason.

After Zhou left, Zhang's heart was also in a trance.

When there was that kind of rumor between Feng Mei and Prince Duan before, it was said that Feng Mei liked Prince Duan. In the eldest princess's mansion, he personally expressed his heart to Prince Duan. Zhang and Feng Yu also thought that Feng Mei liked Prince Duan, but later, after Feng Mei woke up from illness, he said that he didn't like Prince Duan at all.

If you want to talk about family affairs, it is indeed very good to be able to marry a prince as a princess, but that generation also makes the Zhang family very entangled.

After being irritated for a while, Zhang decided to go to Fengmei.

Without Xiang Na's interruption, Feng Mei was happy. Sitting in the yard basking in the sun and reading a book.

I was fascinated by it, and Zhang didn't notice it when he came over.

Zhang stared at his daughter for a long time, and the more he looked at it, the more he wanted to shed tears, the children had grown so big, and he didn't mention talking about marriage, this mention made him feel as if his daughter was about to get married, and he was very reluctant.

Zhang still held back his tears and called Sister Mei with a smile.

Feng Mei saw Zhang's and quickly stood up. "Mother, when did you come, why didn't you make any sound at all." Feng Mei took Zhang's hand and sat down.

"I see you reading and reading. I can't bear to disturb you, it's rare that you are so studious, what are you reading? ”

"A travelogue, boudoir women can't go out often, look at this kind of book, they all want to understand the customs outside."

"Did Prince Duan give you this book?"

Feng Mei nodded. said: "Yes, I have read all the travelogues in my father's study, and I begged my master to help me find them." ”

"Prince Duan is good, other gentlemen look down on you and refuse to teach you, even if he definitely comes forward and teaches you so knowledgeable and courteous, I don't know how to thank him."

"Mother, do you know that if you praise others, don't you praise my own efforts?" Feng Mei is coquettish in front of Zhang's, she has long regarded Zhang's as her own mother in her heart, and always likes to be coquettish in front of Zhang's.

"You don't know anything about modesty." Zhang pinched Feng Mei's little nose.

"I'm already smart, even the master often praises me for being smart, otherwise Mrs. He wouldn't have accepted me as a student?" Feng Mei still has this self-confidence.

"Sister Mei'er, you rejected the Seventh Prince's proposal in the palace that day, did you really not want to marry?"

"It's not that I don't want to get married, women have to marry sooner or later, if I stay at home all the time, won't I be disgraced to my mother and give birth to a daughter who can't be married? I just want to stay at home for a few more years, accompany my father and mother, I used to be ignorant, always upsetting you, now I just want to do my filial piety, as for getting married, but I can't ask for it, my mother said yes? ”

"Silly boy, you will say things that move me."

"Mother, I'm just telling the truth, you are my mother, I don't be filial to who you are filial."

"I think Prince Duan is really a good man, with a good temperament, good character, and a good temper, but I don't know why I haven't married yet?"

Feng Mei sneered, "Mother, do you want to be a matchmaker and help my master find a princess?" ”

"I didn't have the intention of being a matchmaker, I just asked casually, didn't the noble concubine come to our house yesterday? I saw your second aunt today, your second trial is saying that the concubine is worried about Prince Duan's family affairs every day, I think about how long you have been with your master, he has a favorite woman, I am quite curious, what kind of girl does a person like him like? If you know, I'll talk to your second aunt. ”

"I don't know this, how could he mention such a thing to me, master? Besides, if the master has a favorite woman, does he need help from others? I'm sure I've spoken. ”

"That's right." Zhang just wanted to see Feng Mei's reaction, but when it came to these things, Feng Mei was like a nobody, not like someone who had feelings for Prince Duan.

Although this marriage event is said to be the father's order and the matchmaker's words, Zhang and Feng Yu have always wanted to find the best for Feng Mei, and Feng Mei likes it herself.

Zhang talked to Feng Mei about something else and left.

Feng Mei continued to read the book, and Feng Mei still didn't know anything about the things behind this family business.

Until the evening, when Feng Yu returned home, Zhang opened his mouth several times to talk about it, but he didn't know how to say it, when it was time to sleep, when the two couples were chatting about other topics, Zhang thought about an opportunity and said, "There is something, I don't know if I should mention it?" ”

"What else do you have to say to me?" Feng Yu felt that the Zhang family was a little weird, they had been married for many years, what did they say, and they were still spitting up.

"It's a bit of a dilemma."

"Come on, you've never been such a verbose person."

Zhang thought about it and told Feng Yu what Zhou said today.

Feng Yu was lying on the bed and sat up with a swish.

"How can this be done? Isn't that fooling around? Feng Yu naturally didn't dare to say that the noble concubines were messing around.

"Don't talk about your younger siblings, listen to your younger siblings' tone, this is what the concubine means."

"Why does the concubine think that she wants Prince Duan to marry our sister Mei, they are a master and a student, and they have this kind of relationship with the second family, Sister Mei wants to be called Prince Duan's cousin, I can't agree to anything."

"Don't we mean to refuse the concubine like this, right?"

"Anyway, I can't agree, it's right that Prince Duan has a good character, but this generation can't say anything, this thing is done, do you let Sister Mei call her younger sister cousin or second aunt?"

"I also think it's inappropriate, but I don't know what Concubine Gui thinks in her heart, why did she fall in love with our sister Mei?"

"If she really has to marry, we have to speed up and find a family affair for Feng Mei, book it early, and if we have a family affair, they won't be able to say anything."

"But Sister Mei told me that she didn't want to get married so early."

"It's all come to this point, can you still manage so much? Could it be that you want her to marry Prince Duan and mess up our family's life? "Feng Yu is a scholar, and he looks at these very important, and he can't agree to anything.

"Then you go and tell Sister Mei." Zhang felt that he couldn't open his mouth, and he had said before that he wanted to find Feng Mei someone she liked.

"Can you wait to discuss it with her now? I'll contact you tomorrow to see if you can find a good family affair, we will directly make the decision to order, the marriage event is the father's order, now I can only do this, when the time comes, talk to Sister Mei well, I can't find a fire pit for her to jump into, naturally I will carefully find a good family affair for her. (To be continued.) )
