Chapter 283: Hints

Xie Shurou's letter and snacks were as usual, and she arrived at the Anguo Mansion in the afternoon. Mu Hongsheng finished reading the military book with her brothers and brothers in the afternoon, changed her clothes and went to Mrs. Mu's house to sit, just in time to eat the freshly delivered snacks.

On this day, the three Mu Qingyi brothers also arrived at Mu Laofu's courtyard early and shared snacks with Mu Hongsheng. While eating snacks, Mu Hongshang opened the letter Xie Shurou brought over and read it slowly.

It's just that on this day, Xie Shurou's letter doesn't want to be like the past, a lot of daily gossip, but only a short page, only one thing. In the letter, Xie Shurou said that Xie San's relatives were going to Beijing and would bring their children over, and then she briefly introduced the surnames of Xie San's relatives, the ins and outs, and a few dry words.

That's right, this is the idea that Xie Shurou came up with, so she took the matter of Mrs. Lu's family entering Beijing as a gossip to Mu Hongsheng, and explained the information of the Lu family clearly, without mentioning anything else. Xie Shurou thought that according to Mu Hongsheng's cleverness, she should be able to see what she wanted.

Mu Hongshang was reading the letter while eating snacks, but after seeing these few lines, her hand to touch the snacks suddenly stopped, and then muttered to the letter paper for a few seconds, suddenly raised her head, and directly stuffed the letter to Mu Qingyi, who was sitting on the side: "Fourth brother, look." ”

"This ......" Mu Qingyi hurriedly glanced at the letterhead, then frowned, stood up directly and sent the page of the letter to Old Madam Mu.

"I see," Mrs. Mu was happy when she read the letter: "Xie Fu skirt has found a suitable in-law for us." This Lu Fu Rao's daughter is really suitable for her. ”

"This kind of thing, where do you need others to help worry about it." Mu Qingyi was a little not too high-minded. Mu Zhengyi is his own brother, his brother's marriage, where is the turn of the Xie family to help Zhang Luo.

"Don't blame others for helping to worry about it," Mu Laofu didn't care, but replied with a smile: "The wives of the big families, it is common for each other to help Zhang Luo's children and relatives with each other, but our family has not had much contact with the Jingzhong Xungui family in the past, and you have never seen such a thing." This time, your brother went back to Beijing to choose a daughter-in-law, and he didn't choose a famous person, and others saw that he hadn't found a suitable candidate for a long time, so he naturally thought about helping Zhang Luo. ”

"Moreover," Mrs. Mu stretched out her hand and clicked on the page of the letter: "Mrs. Xie is still reliable, and people are not blindly helping Zhang Luo, this Lu girl is really looking for it according to our family's previous criteria for choosing a wife." ”

"In this way, grandmother has no objection to letting the eldest brother go and see that Lu girl?" Mu Lingyi asked.

"Things are good, and Mrs. Xie is also well-intentioned." Old Madam Mu replied with a smile: "I know what you guys think, it's nothing more than thinking, Mrs. Xie is so bothered, but she thinks that if this family business is done, it will be beneficial to the Xie family." This is actually true, no good, who should bother to be a matchmaker? But in the final analysis, people are also helping your eldest brother Zhang Luo, and they are not blindly looking for candidates, which is actually not a bad thing for our family. It's just a pity, this time I have to live up to Xie Fu's kindness, I'm early, your sister-in-law can not be theoretical, but your eldest brother must like it. ”

"What if the eldest brother likes that Sister Lu?" Mu Jinyi, the oldest, asked very straightforwardly.

Old Madam Mu said with a smile: "Your eldest brother's business, what are you talking about here, your eldest brother knows it in his own heart." ”

Obviously, Mrs. Mu's words, your friend Mu Jinyi didn't understand, he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to continue to ask, but Mu Hongsheng directly stuffed a piece of dim sum into it and gagged it directly. And Mu Qingyi, who was delicate, first looked at Mrs. Mu, and then at her sister, and suddenly felt a little stunned.

"Okay," Mrs. Mu clapped her hands and decided to end the topic: "If you don't want to eat a snack, just go play for a while, dinner is still early." ”

Mu Qingyi thought for a while, and finally asked, "Grandmother, where is the eldest brother?" ”

"Outer study," replied Mrs. Mu, "something happened in the court today, and your eldest brother hurried to write a letter to the north. ”

"No wonder Mr. Sun is willing to get out of school early today!" Mu Jinyi stuffed a mouthful of snacks, his mouth bulging, like a squirrel: "It turned out that there was something, I thought he was merciful and grateful for our hard work!" ”

"You've only read a few pages of a war book, and you're embarrassed to be too hard." Mu Qingyi counted down his younger brother, stood up and wanted to go out: "I'll go to the outer study to see my eldest brother." ”

"Fourth brother, wait, I'll go too." Mu Hongshang looked at Mu Qingyi's face, stood up decisively and walked out: "I want to talk to the eldest brother, don't forget to ask the second brother and the third brother to write back more frequently when I ask him to write a letter." ”

Mu Lingyi and Mu Jinyi didn't doubt Mu Qingyi and Mu Hongsheng's purpose, the two of them were too lazy to follow, and still sat quietly in Mu Laofu's house, laughing while waiting for snacks to eat. Mu Hongsheng followed Mu Qingyi's footsteps and hurriedly walked out of Mu Laofu Rao's courtyard, and just after turning the corner, Mu Hongsheng dragged Mu Qingyi's sleeve: "Fourth brother, ask me what you want to ask, don't ask the eldest brother." ”

"Ask you?" Mu Qingyi looked at his sister's eyes and was stunned.

"The fourth brother has always been careful," Mu Hongshang replied, "When Grandmother prevaricated you just now, did you already find out?" ”

"So, you already knew?" Mu Qingyi frowned slightly: "Then you, who is the eldest brother's sweetheart?" Why should this kind of thing be hidden from everyone? ”

"He has taken a fancy to Sister Gu." Mu Hongshang replied directly: "It's good that you know it in your heart, don't ask him." ”

"Sister Gu?" Mu Qingyi reacted for a while, and then remembered who Sister Gu was in Mu Hongsheng's mouth. Isn't it the ninth sister of the Gu family who has always been good friends with her sister! The one that the eldest brother rescued at the foot of Tong Mountain a few days ago.

So ...... Those two looked at each other in Tongshan? The eldest brother is really, he actually took a fancy to the Gu family's daughter.

"Fourth brother," Mu Hongsheng dragged Mu Qingyi's sleeve and shook it coquettishly: "The eldest brother didn't want to, but I saw through it and told my grandmother, so he had to admit it." Don't ask him, he ......"

There is no need for Mu Hongsheng to continue. Mu Zhengyi is Mu Qingyi's brother, of course Mu Qingyi knows him very well, and it is self-evident what kind of choice his eldest brother will make.

"So what's going on now?" Mu Qingyi looked at Mu Hongsheng, and couldn't help but show a worried expression: "Why is it Sister Gu!" ”

"Grandmother, I will definitely let my eldest brother get his wish." Mu Hongshang replied: "The second uncle and aunt have no objection, they have already written to the north to discuss with their father and uncles. ”
