Chapter 927: Gu Lin Gets Married (4)
Mrs. Gu stayed at Lingshan Temple for one night, and arrived home at noon on the second day.
Seeing her jubilant appearance, An An knew that the criticism was very good, otherwise her grandmother would not be so happy. However, An An still deliberately asked: "Grandma, what did Master Miaozhen say?" ”
Old Madam Gu said happily: "Mrs. Miao Zhen said that your uncle and Miss Feng are very compatible, and they are a match made in heaven. Tomorrow, I will ask the matchmaker to make a trip and settle the family affairs. ”
Hearing this, An An said about Tu's coming: "Grandma, this woman is too vicious. I drove her away this time, and I was afraid she would come again. ”
Old Madam Gu also looked disgusted, and said, "What are you coming?" Then get a broom and get her out. ”
"That's how it should be."
Mrs. Gu was extremely fast, not only finalizing the family affairs in the fastest time, but also setting the wedding date.
An An and Qingshu said: "Sister, the wedding date between my uncle and Miss Feng is scheduled for February next year. Sister, isn't it fast? ”
"Not fast, to be expected. After the New Year, my uncle is twenty-three years old, and Miss Feng is also twenty years old, and the two of them should be married at the age of the other. ”
An An nodded and said, "Grandma has already started to buy a dowry now." Ahem, now that the price is rising near the end of the year. Now the purchase of a dowry is an additional cost of one or two percent. It's a pity that I persuaded my grandmother, but she didn't listen. ”
It's not that she's stingy, it's that she thinks it's completely unnecessary to spend more. Wait until the end of the New Year to reduce the price of things and then buy, it's completely too late!
Qingshu Wan'er: "Grandma knows in her heart, you don't have to worry about these things." But you, what are your plans for the future? ”
This time, more than 30 people went to the Kyoto Women's School to recruit workers. An An took the sixth exam, which exceeded Qingshu's expectations, but unfortunately it was brushed down.
Hearing this, An An said: "Sister, I'll go find a private school to teach next year!" ”
Qingshu shook his head and said, "You don't need to go to a private school. Wait for those female schools in the capital to recruit people next year, you can try it. ”
An An hesitated.
Qingshu said: "Moss Girl, Xinghua Girl, these are good, you can try it." ”
An An pinched the corner of her clothes and said softly: "Sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the exam again." ”
Qingshu poked her forehead: "The teacher lives at home, won't you let her pass on some experience to you?" As long as you learn two or three percent of the teacher's heat, you don't have to worry about failing the test if you study hard. ”
An An said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Fu is also very busy, I don't want to disturb her." ”
"It's all a family, what's so embarrassing. An An, you don't have anything to do at home now, you have time to study for the exam, and you won't have time to take the exam when you want to marry in the future. Qingshu said: "An An, take out your strength to take the Kyoto Women's School, I believe you will definitely be able to pass the exam." ”
An An clenched her fists and said, "Sister, I listen to you, this time I will study hard and strive to be admitted next year." ”
After a conversation, An An went back.
She walked on the front foot, and Feng Yuehua came over to find Qingshu on the back foot: "Qingshu, thank you for the incident the day before yesterday." ”
Qingshu invited her to sit down and said, "Auntie, we will be a family in more than three months, so you don't need to be so polite." ”
Feng Yuehua picked up the tea, drank half a cup, and said gratefully: "It's also fortunate that you said good things for me in front of the old lady and Miss An An, otherwise my stepmother would have made such a fuss, and this marriage would definitely be ruined." ”
Qingshu smiled and said, "I heard that the clan has severely punished your stepmother, so she shouldn't dare to interfere in your marriage in the future, right?" ”
Feng Yuehua shook her head and said, "If she dares to make trouble again, the clan will not be able to tolerate her." So even if she wanted to make trouble, my father wouldn't dare to indulge her anymore. ”
"That's good."
After saying a few words, Feng Yuehua got up and said goodbye.
Qingshu said: "Auntie, stay and eat at noon!" I'm bored at home alone, so let's talk. ”
Although Feng Yuehua is older than her, the two are actually the same age. Feng Yuehua has a cool temper and has something to say, Qingshu still likes to talk to her.
couldn't resist Qingshu's graciously staying, so Feng Yuehua agreed to stay for lunch.
It was boring to sit dry, and Qingshu asked, "Auntie, I don't know if you can play chess?" ”
"I can play checkers, but I can't."
Qingshu asked Lin Fei to bring the flag box. Looking at the dust on it, Feng Yuehua pursed her lips and smiled.
After five consecutive sets, Qingshu won four sets and lost one.
Feng Yuehua said with a smile: "I've always heard that your drawings are very good, but I didn't expect you to play checkers so well." ”
She used to play checkers with people and rarely lost, but it was the first time she was as miserable as she was today.
Qingshu picked up the chess pieces and put them back in the chess box, and said with a smile: "That's all rumors, I also paint peonies well, and the others are average." ”
Feng Yuehua praised: "That's also amazing, I can't even hold a paintbrush!" However, if I have a daughter in the future, I must provide her with a study to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. ”
Don't want to be as good as Qingshu, at least don't just recognize a few words like that.
Feng Yuehua sighed and said, "Actually, I went to a private school when I was four years old. My mother told me at the time that I should study hard and strive to be admitted to Kyoto Women's School. ClinkerWhen I was six years old, my grandmother had a serious illness and needed to recuperate in bed. She was bored by herself, so she asked me to stay with her. ”
"And then you didn't go to school?"
Feng Yuehua nodded and said: "My grandmother thinks that the girl's family can recognize a few words, the key is to have good cooking skills, there is no need to read so many books." My mother didn't want to, but unfortunately she couldn't beat my grandmother and my father. ”
Qingshu picked it up and said, "Hearing you say that, my aunt loves you very much." ”
"My mother is very fond of me, but she is also very strict with me. When I was eight years old, she asked me to learn how to be a housekeeper, and at the age of ten, she asked me how to manage the farm and shop. At the time, I thought she was too strict and had a confrontation with her. Speaking of this, Feng Yuehua said a little sadly: "Later, I learned about her good intentions. ”
"It is better to leave a family fortune than to let the child have a skill. Let you learn the ability to marry in the future, and you are not afraid of being untenable, my aunt thinks far-reaching. ”
"It's a pity that by the time I came to my senses, she was gone."
Qingshu smiled and said, "As long as you are doing well, she will be happy under Jiuquan." ”
Remembering what Feng Yuehua said to her last time, Qingshu asked: "Now that your marriage date has been set, your brother's family affairs should also be decided, right?" ”
Feng Yuehua looked stunned, and then said with a smile: "I don't have to worry about this matter, my brother will handle it himself when the time comes." ”
Hearing this, Qing Shu frowned and asked, "The woman is worried that your marriage will change, so she wants to wait for you to marry after you get married?" ”
Feng Yuehua glanced at Qing Shu in surprise, and said with a smile: "Almost!" But it doesn't matter, there are fewer opportunities to return to my parents' home after getting married. ”
Qingshu could hear the disappointment and sourness in her words. I don't know why, at this moment, she is a little glad that An An is a younger sister, not a younger brother.
