Chapter 210: The matchmaker comes to the door

"Is anyone home? Gu family lady, are you at home? "At the gate of the Gu family's small courtyard, it is rare for someone to come to the door.

Miao Miao and Qing Niang are in the kitchen, busy in full swing. Although they heard someone shouting, the mother and daughter couldn't spare their hands at all.

Qingniang just wanted to shout Gu Nianyuan, but heard the door of the study being pushed open with a "creak".

"Brother Yuan? My mother is busy here, you can help my mother see who it is! ”

Qing Niang was a little unsure and said loudly outside.

"Mother, I see."

Hearing Gu Nianyuan's affirmative reply, Qing Niang relieved herself. However, Qingniang was a little puzzled.

"At this time, who will come to our house?"

"Could it be my grandfather or uncle?" Miao Miao guessed as she rolled out the new dough. After all, no one else from their family came.

The location of the Gu family's small courtyard is relatively remote, and it is far away from most of the people in the village. Qing Niang's temperament, there are no particularly familiar friends. Gu's father has no real relatives on his side, and basically no one else will come to the Gu family's courtyard except for Qingniang's mother's family.

Miaomiao has a so-called "friend" Rue Xiang, who used to often come to Gu's house to find Miaomiao. Because it's profitable, but that's it, it's also solved by Miaomiao.

Miao Miao calculated, today is not the day to take medicine from Rue. Come to think of it, it will only be from my grandfather's family.

Qingniang denied Miaomiao's guess, and kept explaining with the movements of her hands: "No, your grandfather is very afraid of heat, and he won't come out at this time. Your uncle and they heard that they went to do work for the landlord's house, and it will take half a month to finish it. It won't be them. ”

"Who could that be?" Miaomiao couldn't guess it at all, and Qingniang didn't know either.

The mother and daughter were a little curious, but because the work at hand was not easy to put down, they could only give up.

And Gu Nianyuan came out of the study and heard Qing Niang's words to entertain the guests. Gu Nianyuan pushed open the door and saw a mother-in-law with a big mole on the corner of his mouth, a flower on his head, and a woman wearing red clothes.

"Oh, this is the little brother of the Gu family, it's really handsome. Is your mother at home? As soon as this woman saw Gu Nianyuan, a smile appeared on her face. As he spoke, he patted Gu Nianyuan's shoulder.

Gu Nianyuan hurriedly dodged her mother-in-law's hand sideways, looking at the dress of this mother-in-law, Gu Nianyuan frowned, and said in a deep voice: "My mother is busy, this mother-in-law, I don't know what to call it, is there anything to find my mother?" ”

The mother-in-law smiled, "It's worthy of being a person who has read books, and he speaks in a crepe. It's good if you call me Mrs. Wu, I'm here to say hello to your mother. ”

This Wu matchmaker, although Gu Nianyuan often likes gossip in the academy, so she doesn't know much about it. But this Wu matchmaker, in this area, is very famous.

It's just that it's not a good reputation, but it's notorious. It is said that the mouth of a matchmaker is not as good as a deceitful ghost. If you want to say that this matchmaker says that the matchmaker is, that is not what you say. Don't talk about the shortcomings, only the benefits, and especially like to exaggerate the facts.

But if that's it, that's it, there are a few matchmakers who don't do it. But Wu Matchmaker not only exaggerates her speech, but also likes to process. She is a person who only needs to give her money and let her be a matchmaker for any kind of person.

It doesn't matter what is dirty, smelly, or psychopathic. As long as the matchmaker is in place, she will do anything. not only concealed the facts of the other party, but even helped to deceive people together.

Generally, it is the girl's family who is deceived, and the more the girl's family, the more difficult it is. found out that the other party cheated on the marriage, what can I do, they are all married. It's not like modern times, you can leave casually. Wrong... It seems that the modern era cannot be left casually.

But there is still a hope, as long as a woman in this era gets married, she is basically a ghost of this family. A few years ago, I could still reconcile, but now it is unthinkable.

So this matchmaker Wu is really unconscionable when she does this kind of thing to help cheat marriage. Although Gu Nianyuan didn't know the true face of Mrs. Wu, he had some guesses in his heart.

When he only heard about Mrs. Wu's profession, his heart was tight, and he had already guessed the meaning of Mrs. Wu's intentions. Gu Nianyuan couldn't help but cold his face and said indifferently.

"I don't know where the joy that Mrs. Wu said came from?"

Although I don't understand, the reason why Gu Nianyuan's attitude suddenly deteriorated. But what kind of character is Mrs. Wu, who is a person whose skin is thicker than the city wall. Gu Nianyuan's attitude of obviously not wanting to see her, she didn't feel anything.

"Where is your mother, this kind of happy event still has to be told to your mother." Mrs. Wu pretended not to notice it, and Gu Nianyuan's indifferent attitude. Still smiling very enthusiastically, insisting on seeing the young lady.

And Gu Nianyuan, who guessed the intention of Mrs. Wu's matchmaker, where would she be happy. Gu Nianyuan directly rejected Mrs. Wu's request: "My mother is not free, if it is inconvenient to say, please go back." ”

Seeing that Gu Nianyuan finished speaking, he was about to close the door and turn around to leave, but Mrs. Wu hurriedly stopped. "Wait, it's convenient, it's convenient."

Seeing that Gu Nianyuan still looked unwelcome, thinking of the matchmaker gift promised by Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wu squeezed into the courtyard cheekily.

"Your mother is not available, you can listen to you if you are willing to listen. Let's go inside. ”

"You come with me." Gu Nianyuan was also confused by Mrs. Wu's commotion. He really underestimated Mrs. Wu's cheekiness, but she came in.

Gu Nianyuan was afraid that he would forcibly let her leave, and then attract Qingniang and Miaomiao out. Afraid that Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Qing would catch up, Gu Nianyuan decided to take Mrs. Wu to the study to talk.

Let's also see what this old woman wants to do.

Mrs. Wu obediently followed Gu Nianyuan into the study, and as soon as she entered the door, her eyes kept rolling. Look around at the furnishings in the study and the many books on the shelves.

Gu Nianyuan didn't bother to pour tea for this kind of person, so he went straight to the point: "Mrs. Wu, you say, what's the matter with coming to my house?" ”

Mrs. Wu retracted her gaze and smiled obscenely at Gu Nianyuan: "Actually, this kind of thing is a little inconvenient to talk to a little brother like you who has not yet married. I'm mainly afraid that you'll be embarrassed, but if you insist on listening, I can only tell you. ”

"Mrs. Wu just say it directly." Gu Nianyuan said impatiently.

Seeing Gu Nianyuan like this, Mrs. Wu stopped inking and directly stated her purpose.

"I came today, someone asked me to propose to you, Miss Gu. This son's conditions are really not bad, and his family is also considered to be a relatively wealthy family on our side. His family has a total of ten acres of land, and this son is the only son in the family, and he is also very strong and powerful. ”

"And this son, he also has a deep affection for Miss Gu. No, I've been waiting for Miss Gu to show filial piety, so I asked me to come to the door to propose. Isn't such a good family affair a great joy? ”
