Chapter 871: Marriage Proposal

In the end, Xie Yinghui did not choose the image of a "fresh and elegant talented woman" suggested by Xie Mulin.

There's no way, she doesn't have enough confidence in her talents, even if she insists on a "talented" false frame to meet her future mother-in-law, she will please the Zhen family for a while, and after living together in the future, she will definitely show her stuffing, wouldn't that attract her mother-in-law's bad feelings? For the sake of her future happy life, Xie Yinghui does not plan to make this fake.

She finally chose the route of "gentleness and obedience", and chose a lotus-blue long jacket, plus a light green silk skirt, with pearl jewelry, which looks dignified enough, but it will not highlight any talented and feminine temperament, and it is more like the image of a well-educated, well-educated and well-educated civil official.

Xie Yinghui even plans to marry into the Huang family in the future, and ask her mother-in-law more questions in her spare time, so as to please her talented mother-in-law with the image of a humble and studious daughter-in-law. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law teach each other, which can not only increase the relationship between the two, but also pass the time. Presumably, Huang Yan will be happier when he sees them getting along in harmony, right?

Xie Mulin can only praise this. Although Xie Yinghui has been in Huyin's hometown in recent years, her temper has been restrained a lot, and she has also increased a lot of knowledge in the female studies of the clan, and she is more influenced by the Song family in the second room, and she usually reads books. But in the previous thirteen years, she was really just a willful and pampered eldest lady. The biological mother Cao Shuqing was born in a foreign relative and noble general, and did not attach importance to learning and talent, but also used the same concept to teach her daughter, and did not care about her daughter's homework, and was more willing to teach some "struggle and decision" in the house or the rules and etiquette in the palace and palace. At that time, Miss Xie was often compared to the third sister Xie Yingrong when it came to poetry, and for this reason, Xie Yingrong was more and more unpleasant.

Unexpectedly, now that Xie Yinghui still has the initiative to seek knowledge, she still asks her future mother-in-law for advice. Finding such a teacher, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to skip class in the future, right?

Out of respect for his eldest sister's determination, Xie Mulin stayed by her side with extra caution and cooperation, and met Mrs. Zhen, Huangyan's mother, who came to visit.

Mrs. Huang is a very delicate middle-aged woman, probably because she neglected makeup and maintenance after being widowed, she looks much older than her peers, but her hair is still neatly combed and meticulous, her face is also clean, her expression is graceful, and she has a faint smile on her mouth, which looks quite kind and loving. She wears very little jewelry on her body and head, just a jasper-inlaid silver hairpin and matching earrings that are in line with her widowhood and does not appear rude, and a jade bracelet with a blue color like water on her left wrist, with a bamboo blue inlaid wool jacket and a gray horse-faced skirt, the whole person looks plain and solemn.

does have a very outstanding talent and femininity.

Mrs. Huang and Wen are also acquaintances, and they have often corresponded in the past, and now when they meet again, they will soon become in-laws, and they are a little closer than before.

Mrs. Huang smiled kindly and praised Xie Yinghui and Xie Mulin for their appearance, bearing, and etiquette, and presented a meeting gift that had been prepared for a long time - each of them had an embroidered purse containing a white jade chain forbidden step.

In fact, Mrs. Huang even prepared the meeting gift of the other two concubines of the Xie family, which was also an embroidered purse containing a jade chain forbidden to walk, but the jade quality was slightly inferior, but the workmanship was also very exquisite, and it was very good in the family of a medium-sized eunuch. Although the third and fourth girls of the Xie family were not present at this time, Mrs. Huang still asked the Wen family to transfer the gifts to the main master, and there were also four treasures of the high-grade study prepared for the four young masters of the Xie family, which were very well prepared.

Then everyone sat down and talked.

Xie Yinghui only needs to maintain a dignified demeanor from beginning to end and sit on the side as a guest. But if a guest or a Wen mentions her, she also needs to react and show that she is well-up. Xie Mulin needs to speak out less, but occasionally he will make a few words at the right time to liven up the atmosphere and introduce the advantages of his eldest sister by the way.

In fact, everything is a formality.

Xie Mulin could see at a glance that Mrs. Huang had been staring at her eldest sister Xie Yinghui from the moment she entered the door, and had been observing the words and deeds of this future daughter-in-law without a trace, and the more she observed, the more satisfied she became, and the smile on her lips was almost irrepressible. Even if Xie Yinghui said a little reckless and inappropriate, the smile on her face did not change, but there was more affection in her eyes - it is estimated that Mrs. Huang, who has been mixed in the circle of eunuchs and daughters in the capital for many years, and after returning to her hometown after losing her husband, she was betrayed and calculated by her husband's family, and her in-laws turned against her family, and she prefers a simpler-minded daughter-in-law?

Wen also saw Mrs. Huang's thoughts, and the smile on her face became more sincere. She had been reminded by her husband Xie Pu in advance, and she also mentioned Xie Yinghui's life experience as euphemistically as possible, especially some rumors after her biological mother Cao Shuqing remarried.

It's not that she's blocking Xie Yinghui, a cheap girl, but marrying someone, and she can't hide any negative news, so that even if she contributes to the successful conclusion of the marriage, if the in-laws know the truth in the future, they will turn their faces, and it will not be good for their daughter. If there is anything bad, explain it clearly before marriage, and the two families should think it clearly, so that they can still successfully marry, and after getting married, there is no need for the daughter to worry about the gossip from the outside world. Because her in-laws already knew the truth before accepting her, there was no reason to complain about anything afterwards.

Of course, when Wen introduced the relevant situation, she would also say good things for Xie Yinghui, such as her filial piety to her mother at first and left with Cao Shuqing, but later found out that her uncle's family had deceived their mother and daughter, so she drew a clear line with her uncle's family and returned to the Xie family. The rumored marriage contract with her uncle's cousin was a scam, and she had no selfish relationship with the son of the former Ping Nanbo, but was only delayed by her mother's wishful thinking. As for when her grandmother was seriously ill, she also put aside her old grievances, went to serve the sick in person against the white eyes of her uncle's family, and did her filial piety for her mother, and after her grandmother died, she was sad and angry about her uncle's unfilial behavior, and once again had a disagreement with the Cao family......

In short, Xie Yinghui is a good girl who is burdened by her mother, but she is not stained by the mud, knowledgeable and courteous, kind and filial. In fact, she is as innocent as the White Lotus, and she does not like power, and she hopes to marry into a family with a simple population and a clean family style, and hopes that her husband is a gentle gentleman with knowledge and conduct.

Mrs. Huang then said that if such a good girl dislikes her because of rumors or her mother's family, she is illiterate! If her son could marry such a good girl, she would wake up with a smile in her dreams. Then she introduced her son's situation in detail, age, physiognomy, fame, temperament, what he has done, what merits he has made, what is the current situation, what are his shortcomings-such as not being able to get into the Jinshi examination yet, etc., and also mentioned that he had been married in the past, but he was repented, and it was not her fault. is listed in such a way, as if everything can be matched with Xie Yinghui, it is simply a match made in heaven, a pair made from the ground!

When Mrs. Huang finally made a request to propose marriage, and Wen also smiled and accepted the Geng post that the guest had prepared a long time ago, this family affair was officially decided.

Xie Mulin, who had been sitting with him for a long time, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then glanced at Xie Yinghui next to him with a smile. Xie Yinghui secretly hated her, but lowered her head with a smile on her face.
