The Zhengdan of the thirtieth year of the Ming Dynasty (1679) was even more bleak than the previous year, when everyone still had hope for the war situation on the mainland, believing that the reorganized Zheng army could still regain victory, but now, no one in Dongning's civil and military officials continued to have unrealistic illusions, and the greatest hope was to ensure the survival of the Siming and Haicheng bridgeheads.

Zheng Kezang, who accepted the court's congratulations from the hundred officials on behalf of Zhu Jin, changed into the formal clothes of the prison and came to the inner courtyard where the Zheng clan relatives had dinner, and the relatives were still waiting for him to come to the banquet. However, compared to the dissatisfaction written on the faces of the Zheng clan when they waited two years ago, this time most people changed to flattering smiles.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Dong Guotai still dragged the eleven-year-old Zheng Keshuang away from the table as in previous years, and with the departure of this Dinghai God Needle, Zheng Ming and others, who were sitting like needles and eating like chewing wax, also broke up automatically. Zheng Kezhang was about to leave the table with him, when Zheng Cong sneakily walked over and dragged him to a secluded corner.

"Sixth brother, starling brother, turn around quickly, look, what is the second brother going to do when he drags Qin She?" Zheng Rou, who was walking at the end, looked back to urge his wife when he saw Zheng Cong's movements, and he couldn't help but stop Zheng Wen and Zheng Kuan who were walking in front of him. "Will it be any benefit to share the profits with Qinshe behind our brothers' backs?"

"Benefits?" Zheng Kuan and Zheng Wen were excited when they heard it, but at this time they couldn't see Zheng Kezhang and Zheng Cong, and the three of them muttered like this, so they decided to find the past to eavesdrop, so in the dignified Anping City, several Zheng clan relatives became the three vulgar villains who listened to the corner.

"Qin She, it's not that the second uncle relies on the old man to sell the old, you are also the eldest and the oldest, it's time to settle the family affairs." At this time, Zheng Cong was trying to lobby Zheng Kezang. "This girl, the second uncle has seen it, don't talk about the appearance, this temperament can be described as gentle, it is definitely your virtuous help, how about it, is it a meeting."

"Second uncle, although my grandmother arranged for Yu Shouxiao to be counted as declining in March (Note: decay is read Cuī, and the tong is the heaviest mourning dress among the five clothes.)" Manuscript of Qing History? Lizhi XII": Three years of decay, the son is the father and the mother; stepmother, loving mother, adoptive mother, mother-in-law, biological mother; But if a son of a man is hired during the mourning period, wouldn't it be criticized for being unethical? "If he hadn't known that Zheng Cong was mediocre and incompetent, Zheng Kezhang would really think that the other party was framing him." Let's put it off for a while. ”

"Since my mother has arranged for Qin She to use the lightest of the five suits to kill the decay, isn't this matter over?" Zheng Cong is so enthusiastic and naturally has his reasons, who made Zheng Kezhang a diamond king. "Besides, Tang passed away, have you been mourned? No, it's not going to pull it down. ”

"Second uncle, to be honest, my mother gave two concubines before leaving, and I haven't touched them yet," Zheng Kezhang still shook his head, although he didn't mourn for the Tang family, but his biological mother herself was in the mourning period, which made it impossible for anyone to accuse him of not, but if he got married in the filial piety period, it couldn't be explained. "If you can't delay it, let's stop this matter."

"It can be delayed, of course it can be delayed." Zheng Cong's eyes rolled, and he didn't know where he figured it out, so he actually agreed with Zheng Kezang's statement. "If you see each other first, if you think it's good, you can settle down first," Speaking of this, Zheng Cong's purpose was revealed. "As long as the name is decided, it will be delayed for a while, and it is acceptable to come to the woman's house if you want to."

Zheng Kezhang was making it difficult, but Zheng Kuan and the others who were eavesdropping squeezed their eyes, and came out to smash the field with ambition: "Okay, second brother, what are you looking for Qinshe for, why is it your turn to do this big media, no, Qinshe, the sixth uncle and your eighth uncle have someone to come to the door, so if you want to see it, let's see it together." ”

"That's, that's," Zheng Rou argued. "When it comes to being beautiful, I have to say that the lady who is entrusted to my house is the one who is beautiful." Zheng Rou squeezed her eyebrows at Zheng Cong, who was at a loss. "Don't be deceived by your second uncle, the girl he killed is ugly, or the young lady who chose the ninth uncle to find."

Zheng Cong was so angry that he jumped like thunder: "What are you doing, making trouble, why don't you say it, you don't say it." ”

Zheng Cong said while pointing at Zheng Rou: "Dragged to your house?" Lao Jiu, you are one year younger than Qin She, and you haven't married yet, are you embarrassed to be a matchmaker for Qin She? ”

"Who said that if you don't get married, you can't be a matchmaker for your nephew." Zheng Rou pushed back unceremoniously. "Who let us be elders, the elders can't patronize themselves, and they can't think more about the younger generations." Immediately, Zheng Rou asked with a pun. "Second brother, did you say this ceremony!"

Several people quarreled, the sound was higher than the wave, only the party Zheng Kezhang stood there extremely embarrassed, he wanted to sneak away, but before he could stick to the wall, Zheng Cong, who was shouting, rushed to him in front of him: "Qinshe, you give the truth, do you see this person or not." ”

"Qin She, if you want to see you, we'll see you together," Zheng Wen also spat and took a step closer. "You can't just see the second person."

Zheng Kezhang looked at the eight eyes staring at him, expecting Ai Ai, just when he was embarrassed, the solution finally came. Maybe it was because the attendants heard that they saw Zheng Cong and the four of them making noise around Zheng Kezang, and thought that something big had happened, so they reported to Dong Guotai, and Dong Guotai specially sent a personal female official to recruit.

"Is that all?" When Dong Guotai listened to Zheng Cong's reply, she immediately made a decision because she couldn't cry or laugh. "Qin She, unfilial piety has three no queens, although you are pure filial piety, but this matter is not up to you to decide, since your uncles are kind, so let's do it, during the Shangyuan Festival, invite a few young ladies to accompany the old woman to enjoy the lanterns, you also take the time to take a look and settle the matter."

As soon as he heard that he was really going to be a beauty pageant for Zheng Kezang, Zheng Cong's face changed a little, but Dong Guotai couldn't discipline Zhu Jin, but he and his brothers were not a problem, so although his face was like a pig's liver, he could only say yes again and again.

However, Zheng Kezhang looked a little unwilling: "Grandmother, grandson has something to do." ”

Saying that, Zheng Kezhang looked at a few uncles, Dong Guotai willingly asked them to step back, and Zheng Kezhang spoke: "Before leaving, my mother said that she was going to appoint a young lady for her grandson."

"Chen Yonghua's daughter?" Dong Guotai was stunned. "Why didn't you say it earlier." Zheng Kezhang was about to distinguish when Dong Guotai waved the rosary in his hand. "Don't say it, you know that you are pure filial piety, and you want to delay the matter until the end of the period." Dong Guotai twisted the beads in his hand quickly, and he didn't know which passage he secretly recited before making a decision. "Your mother's words, there is no circumstantial evidence, and it can't be done accurately, so let's do it, Yu has already promised you a few uncles, and then let's look at the appearance of these girls." Seeing Zheng Kezang's collapsed face, Dong Guotai soothed. "Chen Yonghua's daughter can also come, if you compare it, you still recognize her, and the aunt will make the decision for you and get married."

Zheng Kezhang knows that this is the best result, if he continues to insist, I am afraid that Dong Guotai, who has lost face and trust in front of his children and grandchildren, will completely hate himself, and what will happen after that is unpredictable. It is precisely because of such an understanding that Zheng Kezhang can only reluctantly agree.

Just as he was about to leave in frustration, Dong Guotai suddenly called him: "Your aunt once pointed out to you two concubines?" You still haven't received it? ”

Zheng Kezhang nodded yes, Dong Guotai thought about it: "I'm afraid you don't like these two, or if you want to send them away, you won't agree, after all, you see things and think about people, in this way, my aunt will point you another one, and it will be good to spread the branches and leaves in the future, and add more incense to the Zheng family." ”

Zheng Kezhang was completely overwhelmed, but the elder didn't dare to resign, so he had to nod wordlessly, but what made him even more unbearable was that what Dong Guotai pointed out to him was actually the Ziling who liked to talk with a strained face, she was nearly ten years older than Zheng Kezang.

"The nine women have been in college for a long time, and I want to be able to take care of your housework."

This is a nail to come in, but Zheng Kezhang has already agreed, and it is too late to regret it, so he had to drag Zheng Keshuang into the water together: "Grandmother, in fact, Qin She is getting bigger and bigger, shouldn't you think about it for him." ”

"Qin She is not in a hurry," Dong Guotai thought that Zheng Kezhang was causing trouble, so he clearly refused. "You haven't decided to be a brother yet, he's still young, let's slow down for a while."

"Didn't the eighth uncle and the ninth uncle also get married?" Zheng Kezhang resisted stubbornly. "Do you want to follow the two of them first?"

"You don't have to worry about their business." Dong Guotai's cultivation obviously did not reach home, but Zheng Kezang's words ignited the fire of ignorance. "You are the grandson of this domain, and the relationship is important, of course you have to come first." Zheng Kezhang had no choice but to kowtow and retreat, looking at Zheng Kezang's back, Dong Guotai frowned, and then spoke. "Come here, send a letter to Siming, and say that Yu wants to choose a family affair for his grandson, and if it is a girl from each family who has a word to be written, please invite them to come to Anping City to enjoy the lanterns on the fifteenth."

The inner attendant who got the message retreated, and Dong Guotai narrowed her eyes and recited the "Heart Sutra", but the mood that had just been stirred up could not calm down, so she ordered: "Let Ziling come to see Yu." ”

Twenty-six-year-old Ziling has been serving by Dong Guotai's side, and since she is a henchman, she can open up and say: "You are not too young, and it will be delayed to follow the old woman, you don't have to say anything reluctant, the old woman doesn't like to listen to these crying and crying." No, it's not to send you out of Anping City, Yu has already told Shisun, you will move over and serve today, but remember, you have to take care of Shisun's daily life, before Shisun has no entry, you have the final say, not for you to spy on Shisun, it's just that the old woman didn't take good care of her back then, so Jinshe went the wrong way, so this qiē can't repeat the mistakes of the past in Qinshe?"
