Chapter 412: Tangled

Drum Tower, Chen's shopkeeper's home.

In an ear room in the inner house, the shopkeeper Chen and Chen Xiaoqing sat on the edge of the kang and talked.

“…… Xiaoqing, the other party's mother likes you very much, as early as the beginning of last month, I have quietly asked someone to come over and ask what our family means, what about me, I don't dare to specialize, so I will repair the book to your parents, and your parents replied, quite satisfied with this family business...... Things are laid out for now, today the Xue family officially came to the door to propose, whether your parents or I, who is an uncle, I still have to ask you if you are happy or not...... If you are pleased, we will order this family business, and if you are not pleased, we will give it back......"

He said this, paused, and looked at his niece opposite.

The opposite side lowered his head, his expression could not be seen clearly, and his hands rested quietly on the skirt.

In the opinion of the shopkeeper Chen, this is rare, when did a sassy person on weekdays ever have such shyness?

It's a big marriage event.

After waiting for a while, the niece did not respond, and the shopkeeper Chen did not urge, picked up the tea cup on the kang table, and slowly sipped it.

He knows very well about this family matter, everything else is good, and the only thing that silences his niece is Xue Pan, the husband candidate.

Although this matter is handled by him, he, as an uncle, is really worthy of his heart. This family affair is placed here, and the benefits to the eldest brother's family and even the entire Chen family are self-evident, marriage, marriage, since ancient times, except for the generals of small families and small households, the slightly higher portals are not completely a matter of two people...... But even so, no one forced her niece to marry into the Xue family, and in the end, she was the one who made the decision.

Of course, he kept this matter from his niece from beginning to end, even if he talked to her at the moment, he still deliberately concealed it. For example, at the beginning of last month, Aunt Xue did not ask someone to come over, in fact, she didn't know at that time, even if she liked it, she only put it in her heart. The section on correspondence with his brother is not only his own proposition, but also the result of his discussion with Jia Wei.

But in any case, these are all trivialities and have nothing to do with the grand purpose, and now people really like it, and they really come to the door to propose, which is enough.

Sipping the tea, in the brewing, the shopkeeper Chen spoke again, "...... The other mother's affection for you...... And at the beginning of last month, when someone came over, the person who came also said that the other party's sister is also very good with you, and you sit and lie together, like sisters...... Think about it, if you really become a family and get along with each other, there is no doubt that they will be happy, many people, mothers-in-law are picky, and sisters-in-law are mean...... You haven't experienced this, but you've heard of it, and you know what's at stake......"

With these words, Zheng nodded to his niece, and the shopkeeper Chen didn't say much, and walked out of the house with his hands behind his back, letting his niece think alone.

The footsteps gradually walked away, and in the room, Chen Xiaoqing raised his face with a confused expression.

What's going on?

She never imagined that the Xue family would actually come to the door to propose.

And before that, the elders on both sides had discussed everything, and now they were just waiting for her to nod or shake their heads.

Between her and Xue Pan...... In a chance conflict, the other party was a strange gentleman, met again, and became the brother of a good sister, and then the conflict was turned over again, and the other party confessed in person. The matter ended here, and there was almost no trace in her heart, whether it was these things or Xue Pan.

Right now, all the memories come back.

Xue Pan's face that was not ugly but somewhat buoyant shook in front of her.

She calmly recalls the only intersection between the two sides.

The intersection at the beginning was like a farce, in the entanglement of "meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land", she kicked him twice, and his forehead hit the pillar, and the big bag was swollen.

The Rong Mansion was caught off guard and met again, and both sides were embarrassed.

followed one after another face-to-face accomplishments, and the other party couldn't see much embarrassment, but she was still very embarrassed.

I remember accepting the other party's accomplication at that time, and when I returned to the garden, Baochai said that my brother was originally a rule, but it was only because his father died early and no one restrained him that he changed his appearance......

At this moment, she is like another unrelated self, standing a little farther away, staring at this picture. This Xue Pan, if she is outside her life, has a bad impression a lot now, and even because of Baochai's words, she is not without sympathy and sighs, but as a husband candidate, breaking into her life, for a while, after all, she feels awkward and unacceptable.

With her arms raised and her chin propped up, the cheerful and smiling girl who had been playing with guns since she was a child was stunned for a while, and then her thoughts spread.

Uncle said naturally well, many people, mother-in-law is picky, sister-in-law is mean, in contrast, Aunt Xue and Baochai treat her very well, she really wants to marry into the Xue family, in the relationship between mother-in-law and sister-in-law, needless to say that it is pleasant.

Especially Baochai, she really likes to get along with each other.

In addition, as the daughter of a rural eunuch, she has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she also knows that marriage is a matter of two families, not two individuals.

The Chen family is married to the Xue family, and the benefits are huge, it is obvious, otherwise their parents and uncles would not try their best to handle this matter.

All kinds of thoughts were tangled together, and she couldn't make up her mind.

Of course, she didn't know that behind these entanglements, one of the links included the results of Jia Wei and Baochai's careful planning, one was to try her best to dilute her bad impression of Xue Pan, and the other was to let her know the Xue family in advance, and establish an intimate relationship with each other, playing the emotional card.

This important link, together with a concubine's daughter's cognition of marriage, is the reason why Jia Wei had great confidence in this family affair at the beginning, and it is also the reason why the shopkeeper Chen finally agreed to give it a try.

……

Three days later, on the second day of the lunar month, Shopkeeper Chen replied to Aunt Xue through the official media, and allowed this family affair for the eldest brother and sister-in-law.

In the courtyard of Aunt Xue of Rongguo Mansion, she suddenly fell into a festive chaos.

……

The dust settled on the Xue family's family business, and Jia Wei, who was a de facto red media, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The days that followed flowed like water, and the wax moon of the fourteenth year of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty was silent, and soon reached the end of the year.

In between, there is not much to be written.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, Liu Xianglian, who had traveled all over the world, returned to Beijing, and he did the old business of the young master of the matchmaker, and successfully matched Liu Xianglian and Third Sister You's family affairs, which is considered one.

On the twenty-first day of the lunar month, the musk moon is considered a piece.

These two joyous events were all things that he had conceived from the beginning when he was reborn.

Now it's done, and it's done.

Time continued to move forward, and in a blink of an eye, Chinese New Year's Eve passed, and in the first month, the fifteenth year of Jianyuan arrived as scheduled with the breath of the New Year.

This is his third year in the world of Dream of Red Mansions.
