Chapter 0230: Rumors of Marriage
Since the clan elders are relatively old, Jia Min immediately decided to remove a few young and powerful people from the clan, and a few subordinates from the mansion to be driven by the clan elders. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At the same time, another thousand taels of silver were given for the activity.
Naturally, some of these funds will fall into the pockets of the clan elders themselves. Jia Min also knew this, and privately approved of this approach.
Leaving the matter of awarding to the Elders' Association is first of all because the role and positioning of the Elders' Association is the most suitable.
The hidden purpose is to strengthen the authority of the Council of Elders through this function of the Council of Elders.
The award is awarded once a year, and the daily supervision role of the clan elders' association is perennial. When the clan elders have authority, they will have a deterrent effect on others.
Jia Min never believed that education alone could solve the problem. I don't think that there will be no other problems in Jiafu in the future, and all the people will become saints overnight.
At this time, an authoritative clan elder will play a role.
Asking the clan elders to write a family history is also hidden behind it, which is also this idea. That is to use the historical position of each person in the family history to restrain and deter the clansmen.
This kind of restraint and deterrence is more at work for the upper echelons of the family. After all, everyone likes to leave a positive image in history, and no one likes to be recorded as a disdainful descendant.
Jia Min left the clan elders' association, and went to Mantou Nunnery to find Miaoyu. One is to go to Miaoyu to study the matter of starting a poetry club, and the other is to fake the public to see Miaoyu.
As he was walking, he ran into Wang Xifeng.
Jia Min now has a headache when he sees Wang Xifeng, and just wants to dodge, Wang Xifeng has already seen him, so he has to face him hard.
"Second sister-in-law, why is it so coincidental?"
"Yes, coincidentally, very coincidentally. You all go back first, I have something to say to Brother Min. ”
Wang Xifeng said to the group of people who followed behind him and sent them away.
Wang Xifeng is like this, when she goes there, she is willing to have a group of people follow behind her, it seems that only in this way can she show her majesty.
This time, Wang Xifeng didn't harass Jia Min, just looked at Jia Min and smiled meaningfully.
"What's wrong, second sister-in-law, what's wrong?"
"Fourth Brother Min, can I pretend with me?"
Feign? What did I pack?
"What does the second sister-in-law mean, please be clear."
"I'm going to congratulate Fourth Brother Min, Fourth Brother Min is overjoyed."
"Thank you, sister-in-law, haven't you congratulated you?"
Jia Min thought she was talking about martial arts.
"Forget it, I'll tell you straight, guess who came to me just now?"
It's all said bluntly, and you still tell me to guess.
"Who will come to you, I know?"
"You don't want to know, but it's for your business."
"My business? What's the matter with me? ”
"Aunt Xue went to me and asked about you, and asked for a long time."
Aunt Xue asked me?
Jia Min immediately thought of a possibility, but he couldn't believe it was true.
This happiness seems to come too quickly.
"Don't you want to know what Aunt Xue asked?"
"If my sister-in-law wants to say it, she can say it, and if she doesn't want to say it, she won't say it. If there's nothing to do, I'll go first. ”
"Okay, you go, but you won't regret it later. Aren't you afraid that I will speak ill of you in front of Aunt Xue? ”
I said Aunt Xue, my mother-in-law, if you want to know me, who can't you find, you have to find this. Her mouth is unreliable. If she says anything bad about me, don't believe her.
"My sister-in-law is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, so naturally she won't say anything bad about me. Besides, if you don't do bad things, I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, and I'm not afraid. ”
"Dare to be hard-mouthed in front of me, if you see Miss Bao, I wonder if you can still be so hard-mouthed?"
"Why did you get Miss Bao again?"
"Let me tell you the truth, Aunt Xue has taken a fancy to you and wants to recruit you as a son-in-law."
"Sister-in-law, don't talk nonsense, if people hear it, it will not be good for the innocence of the other girl.";
"Hmph, before I can wait for anything, I know that I am protecting Miss Bao. Let me tell you, Aunt Xue was talking to me just now, and she was talking about you. Who am I, and can she hide her thoughts from me? I guess Aunt Xue is going to promise Miss Bao to you. ”
Wang Xifeng is indeed a very smart person.
"No, the girl is the same as the people in the sky, but it's not me, an ordinary man."
"Don't be prestigious, and destroy your own ambition. What's wrong with Brother Min? Whose girl promised to the Min brothers, that is their blessing. However, Miss Bao's character is really good. ”
"I haven't written these eight words yet, sister-in-law should not speculate."
"This kind of thing, naturally I won't talk nonsense, isn't this just with you, I just told you in advance. I thought that after the New Year, this layer of window paper would be pierced. ”
"Alright, I'll go first."
Jia Min said hello, and regardless of Wang Xifeng's reaction, he turned around and left.
He didn't want to discuss this with Wang Xifeng anymore. Wang Xifeng is too smart, Jia Min was afraid that he would be careless, so he said that he leaked his mouth and revealed his true heart.
The marriage of children is decided by the elders of both parties. If the elders of both parties come forward and achieve his marriage with Baochai without breaking the existing rules, it will naturally be the best.
Regarding his relationship with Baochai, Jia Min once made an assessment.
Previously, the two had a little misunderstanding because of the veil. However, in the incident of Xue Pan's rape, Baochai came to report to Jia Min, and the misunderstanding was resolved.
Since then, there seems to have been a tacit understanding between the two.
Jia Min's affection for Baochai, he believes that Baochai will understand. As for Baochai's feelings for herself, Jia Min has just established a little confidence now.
If Aunt Xue really meant this this time, Jia Min believed that she must have asked Baochai's opinion in advance, or saw what Baochai meant. At least with the tacit approval of Baochai.
This made Jia Min feel a nameless excitement.
If you can really marry Debaochai, it is undoubtedly a beautiful thing in life.
Looking at the back of Jia Min's departure, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.
Brother Min is about to get married, and I am afraid that it will not be good to get close to him in the future. said so many good things for him in front of Aunt Xue, I don't know if he will know in the future.
I didn't want to say good things for him, but I felt that Miss Bao was a good match, and I couldn't bear to break them up.
Jia Min originally planned to go to Mantou Nunnery to find Miaoyu. Now that I heard Wang Xifeng's words, I feel that it is a little shameless to go to Miaoyu again at this time. There is a feeling of sorry Miaoyu in my heart.
So I went to the East Flower Hall. He had a faint expectation in his heart that he would meet Baochai here.
Sure enough, Baochai is really here.
As soon as he saw Jia Min, Baochai's face turned a little crimson, and he said hello a little reservedly, and just sat there. is the same as the confident and calm appearance before, judging the two people.
Ying'er came over to make tea and went out, leaving only the two of them relatively silent.
Jia Min saw that Baochai's attitude suddenly changed today, and he felt that what Wang Xifeng said was true.
However, at this time, it is not good to speak directly, for fear that if you are not careful, you will be abrupt Baochai, and there will be a misunderstanding like last time, but it is not interesting to talk about yourself.
However, it's even more embarrassing to just don't speak, you have to say something, right?
"How are things going lately?"
"Well, that's good."
"The things contracted by Zhuangzi have all been dealt with?"
"Well, that's it."
Baochai, could you please say a few more words? Usually you can speak well, why don't you speak today?
Seeing that Jia Min was a little anxious, Baochai snorted and laughed.
"What are you laughing at, did I say the wrong thing?"
"I'm not wrong, I just want someone to always be able to speak well, why don't you speak today?"
"Hehe, I'm afraid that I will say the wrong thing and make you angry again."
"Where there are so many angry people, and they are not outsiders, even if they say two wrong sentences, what is the matter."
Oh my God, you finally opened your eyes, Baochai doesn't treat me as an outsider anymore. You see, I said the wrong thing, and she didn't care.
"I want to say a lot, but I don't know where to start for a while."
"In the past few days, I've heard some things about Fourth Brother Min."
"My business? A good thing or a bad thing? ”
"Naturally, it's a good thing, it's about the marriage of Fourth Brother Min."
Hey, who's to say the women here are conservative? Baochai is not conservative, and he told his lover about his marriage.
"I've heard about it, but I've just heard about it."
"Then what do you think of Miss Shi?"
Baochai said, looking at Jia Min with a smile.
What Miss Shi? Why did a girl suddenly appear? Could it be Shi Xiangyun?
Baochai, don't test people like this, okay? Last time, Keqing said that I was suitable for you, so I talked about Shi Xiangyun first, did the two of you make an appointment in advance?
Shi Xiangyun is innocent, you can't always use others as a shield and call back to call people's arrows.
"Miss Shi is good, but it has nothing to do with me."
"Not necessarily. I heard that the uncle of the Shi family came two days ago, and it seems that he wants to propose marriage to you and Miss Shi. ”
No way? Am I so sought-after now?
Temptation, absolute temptation, I can't be fooled.
"I'm not suitable for Miss Shi, and people may not look down on me. Besides, there is another person I like in my heart. ”
"It's just that I don't know whose girl is so lucky that she will become the favorite person of Fourth Brother Min?"
Small, still pretending to be with me, don't you know?
Alas, it is really difficult to fall in love with the ancients. To put it bluntly, they can't stand it and say that you are not educated. Not to mention, I often lose opportunities. You have to play vaguely, and you want to talk about it.
"The person I like, Miss Bao knows?"
"How would I know? Where is it? ”
"Far away, close at hand."
"Fourth Brother Min is here to be lighter than me again, you better go, so as not to let others see you and me together, and gossip."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Jia Min was about to leave.
"Don't be in a hurry, who told you to leave like this."
Jia Min sat down again.
I didn't plan to leave.
