In the Dasheng Dynasty, there was a custom of keeping the New Year on Chinese New Year's Eve.

After a full meal, the old and young of the Yuan family gathered in the old lady's house in Tai'an Courtyard.

The men sat on the stools or simply stood up, the women and children were nestled on the old lady's warm kang, and the young Po Ge Er, Qi Ge Ai Ge Jiu Jin and Ke Er Yier all followed their respective nurses back to the house.

The old lady drank an extra glass of wine at dinner, and then felt a little drunk, leaning on the big cushion with a blushing face, squinting at a room full of children and grandchildren, with a smile on her face.

She said with great emotion, "At this time of last year, several of your grandfathers were not at home, and the children did not have the interest to vigil and went to bed early, the second daughter-in-law was sick, the third daughter-in-law and the fourth daughter-in-law were pregnant, Yue'er was not put home in the palace, and I and the eldest couple stayed up until the clock rang, and it was regarded as a year-old." ”

The county lord of Yining leaned on the old lady's arm and said, "Yes, Da Lang and I accompanied my grandmother to celebrate the New Year, looking at my grandmother's cold and lonely appearance, I wanted to say something lively, but when I opened my mouth, I just remembered you in the northwest frontier." ”

She smiled and shook her head, "Grandmother said to take the children's letter and read it, and read it as if they were with us, but before the letter was finished, Grandmother cried." ”

Da Lang patted his chest, "Yes, grandmother has always been optimistic, why did she shed half a tear in front of us?" At that moment, my sister-in-law and I were so scared that our faces turned white. ”

He sighed and shook his head instead, "It's good that a year has passed in the blink of an eye, but the scene at home has changed dramatically." That's nice! ”

There is no need to suffer from wars and turbulences. It does not bear the pain of separation. There is no threat, and there is nothing to fear.

The old lady nodded again and again, "The new emperor has grown up since we were children, that kid doesn't say anything else, but his temperament is very kind, as long as he is here, the Yuan family will be safe." What's next......"

She didn't know what came to her mind, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Yue'er is thirteen years old, it's time to see your son-in-law, if there is a good candidate, you should also pay attention."

Lian Shi hurriedly said, "If my sister-in-law is willing to kiss her, why don't you consider my mother's nephew?" ”

Women are naturally interested in being matchmakers, and when she said this, she became interested, "My eldest brother and sister-in-law's third son, Shaoqing, is fifteen years old this year, two years older than Yue'er. The birth is not bad, and the learning is good. Now studying in Tai College, next spring will be a scientific examination. ”

She covered her mouth and smiled, "Although he is not the eldest son and grandson, and he will not be able to inherit the title in the future, but that child is talented and intelligent, and he also has ideas, my father often said that Shaoqing will be able to create his own career in the future." ”

The Liguo Mansion, like the Zhenguo Mansion, are all old ministers of the family who followed the great grandfather to fight the country.

After the founding fathers, the foundation was deeper than those of the newly promoted aristocracy.

can pass on the lord for hundreds of years and decline, that must be a family rule and discipline, knowing that judging the situation and standing on the right team is one, the descendants of the family are talented, capable and far-sighted, and the Lian family is a good choice for marriage.

Coupled with being close to each other, the two families were originally relatively close, so the third son Lian Shaoqing that Lian Shi said, everyone here has seen it except Cui Ling.

Lian Sangongzi was born handsome and upright, quite knowledgeable and talented, and his knowledge is also good, and he is indeed a rare young talent nowadays.

When the new emperor ascends the throne, it is necessary to open a department to take scholars, and after the spring season, Lian San will surely become famous.

As long as he has fame and relies on the mountain of Liguo Mansion, Lian Shaoqing will definitely soar in the future, and his life will definitely be not bad, even better than the eldest son who inherits the title.

If Yue'er marries in the past, although her status is not as noble as that of the granddaughter-in-law of the long house, she will not be able to be the wife of the family.

But the daughter-in-law of the third son has a much smaller responsibility, and the rules that should be done in front of the mother-in-law do not have to be so strict.

What's more, Lian Shaoqing is the nephew of the Lian family, not to mention anything else, even for the sake of the Lian family, the Lian family will not treat Yue'er badly.

When the old lady heard this, she was moved, this family can indeed do it.

Yue'er hung her head low, although she didn't have a shy look, she didn't say a word, and she never said a word.

Although she has almost died of her heart for Jing Rong, she has been lovely for a lifetime, not that she can forget it, she has not completely let go of herself, her heart is too small, and she can't squeeze other people for the time being.

But at the same time, she knows very well that she is thirteen years old, and she will turn fourteen in a few months, and it is indeed time to say goodbye, and her family has always loved her very much, and the candidate proposed must be for her good, and she has no reason to refute or refuse.

She didn't know what to do, so she kept her head down and didn't speak.

Liang also said, "Lian Xiaosan, we have met, that kid speaks and does things well, he is mature and stable among young people, and he is indeed a good candidate." ”

She sighed softly, "To be honest, if it weren't for what happened to my mother's family, and the current situation would not be good, I would like to promote my eldest nephew Zhongwen, that child is also very good." ”

If it is the Liang family in the past, the emperor's family, the scholarly family, and the great Confucianism in the forest, it is a very noble family, although the status is much worse than that of the Zhenguo Mansion, but a leading literati and a military general, it can be regarded as equal.

The eldest young Zhongwen of the Liang family is the best among the children of the Liang family, and he is worthy of Yue'er.

It's a pity that he later encountered King Ning's rebellion, and suffered the sins of the past few years, and now even if the will to recover has been issued, but to restore the former prestige, I don't know that it will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

Naturally, she can't mention any more family affairs, not at all on an order of magnitude.

At this time, Su Zihua didn't speak.

Although the solemn Su clan has been prosperous for several generations, but now it is in business, although the style is still the same, but the upper and lower levels of the family are inferior, and they are absolutely unworthy of Yue'er, who has been crowned the lord of Changle.

So, she didn't mention it at all, just smiled and watched them talk.

The county lord of Yining pondered for a moment, "Lian Xiaosan can also be regarded as a child we watched grow up." Know-it-all. It's pretty good. I just don't know what exactly the Liguo Mansion means. ”

She paused, "Third brother and sister, if you inquire for me when you go back to your parents' house another day, you don't have to explain clearly, just ask about the child's current situation first, and then ask your sister-in-law, but there is someone who is interested?" ”

The county lord of Yining has always been very clear in her thinking, and she knows that she is in the Dasheng Dynasty. Now the most prosperous family, the Yuan family deserves it, and the royal blood of the Sheng Dynasty is thin, there are no more clan families in Shengjing City, and Yue'er has also been named the county lord.

So when it comes to the family, there are not many people who can be worthy of Yue'er.

The Liguo Mansion is one of the few remaining Guogong Mansions in the Dasheng Dynasty, and it is also a good match.

Although Lian Xiaosan is not the eldest son and cannot inherit the title, as Lian said, the third son has a lot less responsibility. Even if there is anything, there are two brothers in front of me.

I hadn't thought of this before. Now that she heard Lian Shi, she also got into it.

Lian Shi naturally hurriedly agreed, "Hey, on my mother's birthday in the third year of junior high school, I can go back and explore my sister-in-law's tone first, if both are suitable, then think of another way to let Yue'er take a look." ”

She said with a smile, "Our family is different from other people's families, we don't want to wait for blind marriages, we always want to let the children have a chance to meet and then talk about other things." ”

Otherwise, no matter how good Lian Shaoqing's character is, but Yue'er doesn't like it, it won't work.

The twisted melon is not sweet, Lian thinks that she can be so happy and affectionate with San Lang now, in the end, it is because she looked at each other right at the beginning and recognized each other.

Otherwise, even if the Yuan family has the rule that only forty childless concubines can be accepted, but the affairs of the family can be managed, who can control the men stealing outside?

Three miles outside the Anwu Gate, turn right on the corridor lane, the street is full of flower buildings open to welcome guests.

Even in the fruit lane in the south of the city, there are also many outer rooms raised by the old and young masters of large families.

The old lady thought it was true, so she made a decision, "The third daughter-in-law will go to explore the wind first, you guys, you are all paying attention, but there are other good children." ”

At the beginning, in order not to threaten Yue'er's happiness in her life, and also to prevent Yue'er from being implicated by the former prince and ruining her reputation, the Yuan family would support the new emperor to seize the throne without hesitation.

Even if such a thing is done, will it be allowed to make other mistakes?

She patted Yue'er on the shoulder lovingly, "Good boy, in your marriage, the great grandmother is not allowed to have the slightest flaw, and you will definitely be satisfied." ”

Yue'er didn't know what to say, so she could only hang her head and mum vaguely.

This can be regarded as a promise, and the adults in the room all laughed, only Cui Ling and Goro had a little worry in their eyes.

Finally, when the laughter and laughter were up, the giant bell of Dong'anmen rang, and there was a commotion outside, and the old lady held his head and smiled, "The New Year is here!" ”

Everyone talked and laughed for a while, although the interest was still very high, but they took care of the old lady's body, each said a few words, and slowly dispersed.

Yue'er quietly asked Cui Ling, "What does Aunt Fifth think of the third son of Lian?" ”

She had seen Lian Shaoqing before, a tall, white, relatively thin, very polite, and very civilized young man, but the impression only stopped there.

However, she knows the temperament of the third aunt Lian, if Lian is not very optimistic about Lian Shaoqing, she will never mention him in front of the family, thinking that this person is really good, the third aunt will not shy away from recommending him.

In the middle of the night, it was freezing cold.

Cui Ling stood in the garden in a thick cotton suit, and by the bright lights at the four corners of the wall, she said softly, "I haven't seen the third son of Lian, what kind of person is he, and whether he is suitable to be your husband, I can't say this." Just ......"

As soon as she spoke, her eyes suddenly sharpened, "I just want to know if you are ready to seriously commit yourself before accepting the kiss?" If you still have someone in your heart and then marry another person, it is undoubtedly unfair to everyone. ”

Gorou also asked in a deep voice, "Yue'er, tell Fifth Uncle, have you really thought about it?" (To be continued......)
