CHAPTER XIV
Even if he believes in his heart that the woman in the second brother's mouth is not ordinary, Su Ziming also has his own set of standards in his heart, the Su family is a hairpin family, and the family still has to be valued, but he doesn't want to forget about the camp and forget about the outside, so he is also willing to integrate all aspects of the conditions more or less, some conditions he said on the surface that he didn't care, but in fact, he still cared in his heart, after all, he knew what kind of woman he wanted.
In the eyes of his family and outsiders, he is indeed upright, but in fact, that is only his side. However, how can a three-dimensional person have only one side? In fact, when he was young, he also loved a daughter of a charlatan man like crazy, if it weren't for waking up in time, it is estimated that their children would be seventeen or eighteen years old now. So later, he was afraid that he would make a mistake again and hurriedly married Yan, fortunately Yan was also his first sight, so he was very satisfied with this family affair.
The Su family has a tradition of 'looking at each other before deciding' when talking about marriage, so Su Ziming prefers to believe in his eyes.
"Former palace pavilion scholar Zhang Donglin, you know, right?" Su Zizhao asked Su Ziming.
"Of course I know, but he seems to have been retired for more than ten years, right?" Su Ziming said with a smile. Speaking of Zhang Donglin, I'm afraid there are few people in Shilin who don't know, he was the first leader around the first emperor, and after the new emperor ascended the throne, he automatically resigned and retired, and then there was less and less news about him in the Shilin circle. Now that he heard Su Zizhao talk about Zhang Donglin, Su Ziming couldn't help but feel refreshed, and vaguely felt something.
"Well, yes, after retiring, I began to pay attention to cultivating my mind, so I didn't bother much about political affairs anymore. However, I know his eldest son-in-law, Fang Shiqin, so I occasionally go to his house with Fang Shiqin to sit down and ask him all kinds of questions. Su Zizhao said.
Fang Shiqin is currently the secretary of Guanglu Temple, an official from the third grade, in and out of the palace, not only has a high official and a good reputation, so although Su Ziming has never seen him, he has also heard of him.
"Well, if the second brother can get close to them, then I am much more relieved." Su Ziming said sincerely.
Now that Su Zizhao has become the head of the household at a young age, it is inevitable that there will be some villains around him, so he should make more friends with people who will help him in his political career.
Su Zizhao smiled and said, "Big brother, don't worry, I'm not a fledgling kid, I still know these things." To get back to the point, Zhang Donglin has a granddaughter who is twenty-eight years old this year and is not yet married, I have met her several times in Zhang's mansion, and I have heard a lot about her, and I think she is a very good woman. ”
Twenty-eight years old and not married? This sounded a bit terrifying again, so Mrs. Xiao, Feng Shi, and Su Shanyun all opened their eyes all at once, as if they couldn't believe it.
Even Su Ziming frowned slightly.
Is it because it's ugly? Or is it because of a bad reputation? How could it be otherwise......
Xu saw everyone's consternation, and Su Zizhao explained: "That's the case, she once got married to a neighbor who was a childhood sweetheart, but that neighbor later died on the battlefield, and she didn't talk about marriage anymore as if her heart was like water." And her parents died of illness one after another when she was ** years old, so she has been following her grandfather Zhang Donglin, and Zhang Donglin is a person who does not fall into the norm, so it is up to her, I just hope that she will live happily. ”
"Won't her other relatives urge her to marry? Or is it that you are not experiencing the right one, or is it a physical problem? Su Ziming asked with a smile.
I always feel that it is incredible that a woman can insist on celibacy all the time.
"I don't know much about this, anyway, she is good at strategy, and she has a lot of friends, and she seems to live a very chic life. Oh yes, do you remember the Battle of the Frontier nine years ago? Su Zizhao asked Su Ziming again.
"Remember, our army defeated the enemy's 800,000 with 200,000 men." Su Ziming replied.
"That plan was proposed by her, digging gossip-type tunnels to avoid the pursuers, and then using the sound to attack the west and the smoke method, and finally win."
It's her? Su Ziming was suddenly shocked.
Now it is said that when she was eight years old, she moved the capital with a chess fame, and even many Go masters were not her opponents, and later she also entered the palace as a chess master.
Although Su Ziming had never seen her, he had heard of her deeds, and he thought that a woman as good as her should have been married a long time ago, but he didn't expect that she would still be in the boudoir.
Looking at his brother's expression, do you want to introduce her to yourself? Su Ziming secretly thought in his heart.
But Su Ziming, a woman like her, felt that he only had to look up, and he really didn't have the confidence to pursue her.
I don't know what she looks like, Su Ziming suddenly became a little curious, and because he suddenly had this idea in his heart, he couldn't help but feel red at the base of his ears.
But after all, he is a seasoned person who has experienced personnel, and he quickly adjusted.
"Big brother, you are also proficient in chess and have a good heart, I think you and she will be able to talk." Su Zizhao took the opportunity to lobby.
Mrs. Xiao, who heard the whole story clearly, was a little apprehensive, this kind of talent is really everyone's lady, and I don't know if she will look down on her son, if not, won't she be laughed at by others? Therefore, she hesitated and said, "I'm afraid that such a woman would not want to marry into a small family like ours, right?" Besides, people grew up in the capital, would they be willing to come to the island city? ”
Su Zizhao explained with a smile: "Mother, you are worried too much, the capital and the island city are not very far apart, and it is only two days to take the waterway, this area is not a problem, the key is whether the eldest brother and her fall in love." ”
Mrs. Xiao was still a little apprehensive, and asked Su Zizhao again: "What is the woman's temperament?" Do you get along well? ”
"It's quite masculine, not comparable to those women from small families." Su Zizhao said.
That's it! Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Her name is Zhang Ying, right?" Su Ziming asked Su Zizhao.
"Yes. You see, you also have some impressions of her, if you also have a heart, I will write a letter to Fang Shiqin, and ask him to help test Zhang Ying's tone, if she also has the intention of marrying, then you will go to Beijing and meet each other. ”
Su Ziming's face turned red.
But he naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he said, "Okay, then you can help me ask." ”
In fact, Su Ziming also wanted to ask Su Zizhao about Zhang Ying's appearance, men always have some requirements for women's appearance, but he was really embarrassed to speak, so he had to hold back. However, Su Shanyun saw his father's thoughts, and asked Su Zizhao half-jokingly: "Second uncle, I don't know what Sister Zhang's appearance is?" ”
"As the saying goes, there is poetry and books in the belly, although she is not as delicate as your mother, but she is also very beautiful and lovely."
Su Shanyun saw a satisfied smile on the corner of her father's mouth, and she smiled too.
Su Zizhao saw that everyone was quite satisfied with the woman, so he immediately went back to the study to write a letter to Fang Shiqin. Su Ziming still had a lot of family matters to discuss with him, so he also followed.
After Su Zizhao finished writing the letter, Su Ziming told him about the old mansion.
"I've already found a buyer, but I haven't discussed the share with everyone yet." Su Ziming said to Su Zizhao.
"Brother Heaven should also be back, right? We'll have a good discussion at that time. Su Zizhao said.
"Well, that's what I mean." Su Ziming replied.
After Su Shanyun returned to the boudoir, she still kept thinking about the woman that her second brother talked about with them, she felt that if a woman who could play chess well must be a person with warp and weft in her heart, not to mention that her appearance was still very good, it depended on whether Daddy and her fell in love.
She wanted to talk to Daddy alone and cheer him up, so she went to Daddy's study, but she didn't expect to hear Daddy and the second uncle chatting inside when she was outside the door, and her tone was quite cautious.
"The Sixth and Seventh Princes are the most vocal...... The situation is a bit chaotic......" Su Zizhao's voice said.
"Then you have to be careful, don't be on the wrong side." Su Ziming's voice.
Su Shanyun's brows furrowed.
In the memory of her previous life, she remembered that it was the third prince who ascended to the throne at the beginning of Xin Chou, not one of the six princes and the seventh prince, that is, what would happen in seven years.
She felt the need to reveal this matter to her father and second uncle.
