Chapter 124: Dabao Says Kiss
When Wei Jin was planning to go to He's house, Mrs. He and her eldest son were also talking about the Wei family.
"The situation has been turbulent this year, and the Wei family has been going south to attract the attention of the imperial court." Mrs. He pulled the lid of the tea bowl, didn't drink it and put it down, "Your fifth sister's relatives, I plan to see each other in the Wei family's children." Do you have a good fit? ”
"If it's the Wei family, I think Wei Maoxing should be good."
"Wei Maoxing? Who? Does the Wei family have this child? ”
"Wei Jin's younger brother, the child named Dabao, is now studying with his uncle. If the mother wants to inquire, she can repair the book and ask the aunt. ”
"His family? Is it too short? I wronged your fifth sister. Even though she is a concubine, she was raised by me. ”
"A-Niang, in my heart, the fifth sister is the same as the third sister, but as long as Wei Maoxing can get a name in advance, I would rather marry the third sister to him."
"You, so optimistic?"
"I don't know much about him himself, but I don't think he is too bad from Wei Jin. Even if it is not as good as imagined, with such an aunt here, the fifth sister will not be able to suffer. ”
Mrs. He nodded, thinking about who to find to talk to the Wei family, if the two families were happy, it would be the best, if it didn't work, it wouldn't hurt the harmony.
In the morning, Miss He San and Miss He Wu were listening to Mrs. He talk about how to manage the accounts. was holding the account book and planning to explain it to his daughter in detail, when he saw the third daughter take it, picked up the abacus and crackled for a while, and finally wrote a number to her.
"Auntie, how can the fat powder shop lose money? Would you like to ask? ”
Mrs. He was stunned, this is still her precious daughter who can't teach anything?
"What's wrong? Isn't that right? Sister Jin's method of teaching me shouldn't be wrong, I also helped a lot in Zhangzhou City, and my eldest brother said that I was fast and good. ”
Miss He Wu looked at the third sister enviously, her fingers hidden in her sleeves wrung her handkerchief, she wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it.
"Madam, Miss Wei San and Miss Wei Si ask to see you."
"Please come in, why are you still letting her sister wait outside? Later, when they came, they brought it in directly. ”
Miss He San cheered and ran to pick up her friends.
Mrs. He looked at the third daughter who jumped out, and then at the cautious concubine on the side, and sighed in her heart.
After a while, three little girls came in. Wei Jin took her sister to salute Mrs. He, and called her aunt obediently.
"I heard your big brother He say that you planned to go on the road earlier, why did you come here, what happened?"
Wei Jin looked around and bowed slightly.
"Little San, you lead your sisters to play outside, and I'll talk to your sister about something."
"Hey, mother, shall I take Sihuaer and my fifth sister to the eldest brother's side courtyard to play? He got a new study, and Sihuaer must like it. ”
"Go ahead, let someone tell your eldest brother first, don't let outsiders rush in."
The maidservant girl next to her who had already had a spirit took the first step to inform the eldest young master, and when the three young ladies arrived, the door from the side courtyard to the outer courtyard had been guarded by the old servants.
"What's wrong? Look at the way you look worried. ”
"Auntie." Wei Jin screamed with a pout, revealing a little grievance, and even the tails of his eyes were red.
"What's the matter, my good girl, don't cry, I have something to tell my aunt."
Wei Jin told the dirty things that the Duan family had done in just a few words.
"I'm not worried that my aunt will agree, but my aunt is not our mother after all, I'm afraid that the Duan family will ruin the reputation of the fourth sister by means of subordination, and then my eldest sister is a casual person, in case the roots of the ears are soft......"
The abduction of Sihua'er and He San was a bomb after all, even if they had tried their best to control it, but they couldn't keep their mouths shut on the side of Princess Java and Nanyang Sailor.
Mrs. He's face sank, and a trace of ruthlessness appeared between her eyebrows.
"Don't worry, my aunt will help you deal with this matter. However, what do you plan to do in the future? ”
"My niece didn't think about setting up a relationship for Sihua'er so early, and the original plan was to wait for the big treasure to be promoted in the exam, and choose an honest and reliable one among his friends, but now it's ......"
Mrs. He patted the back of her hand, thought for a while, and said, "What do you think of the five girls you saw my concubine just now?" ”
Wei Jin paid special attention to it when she entered the door before, although she didn't know what Miss Fifth looked like, but after hearing Miss He San, she had quietly inquired about it. These five young ladies are not bad-looking, after all, her mother is favored because she is beautiful. But the fifth lady's behavior is a bit sandwiched compared to the three young ladies, and it is not smooth.
can also understand, after all, she is a concubine, and her mother is gone, if you want to live in the He family, you have to be cautious?
"Miss Fifth is very good, after all, you were personally raised by your aunt, if you don't say it, no one can tell that she is Miss Concubine.
"Then my aunt will be cheeky and ask, do you think it is good for her to promise your brother Maoxing?"
Wei Jin originally came for this purpose, but she didn't expect Mrs. He to have this idea, which was simply great.
But although I was cheering in my heart, I couldn't show it on my face, not only that, but I also had to show just the right amount of surprise and apprehension.
"This, my aunt also knows the situation of my family, I'm afraid she is not worthy of Miss Five."
"There is nothing worthy of it." Mrs. He laughed, "Your family is a well-rounded scholar and martial artist, and your aunt has shown me everything." Besides, there is a sister like you in the family, and I can rest assured that the fifth girl will marry her, and no one will bully her. ”
Immediately, he told me how he felt sorry for this child, but he wanted a bowl of water to be flat, even if he felt sorry for her, he couldn't be too biased or something.
"I know the details of your family, and I will never treat her badly, besides, your younger brother will also be a person who will enter the government in the future, and many mothers have a bit of a power background, which is better than nothing."
Wei Jin nodded, with a vague expression of joy being forcibly suppressed.
Mrs. He hid the satisfaction in her eyes and the smile on the corner of her mouth by drinking water.
"Then, that aunt, do you think I'll let someone come over to propose marriage when I go back?"
Mrs. He snorted and laughed: "Come on, what are you doing with an unmarried little girl." I will write to your aunt and ask her to do all the chores for your family. ”
Having said that, the two families can be regarded as tentative in-laws, and the next words are much easier to say.
"The matter of the four girls in your family, if you don't leave her first, in the name, just let her study here with the three girls and the five girls. It just so happens that this is not a new women's school set up by the state government, and all families have to support it, your eldest sister and second sister can't go, so let the three of them go. If the four girls don't go back, there is nothing to be done about that family. ”
"But if they ......"
"Don't worry, when I turn around, I will let your eldest brother reveal the matter between the He family and your family, and the Duan family will not dare to do anything wrong."
But no, the disappearance of Sihua'er and Miss He San are together, they talked about Sihua, didn't they bring out Miss He San's matter? The two families are married again, one is prosperous and the other is lost, and the Duan family must not be allowed to mess up.
When it was time for lunch, Mrs. He said her plan to leave Wei Jue, and Sihua'er looked at her sister with a slightly white face.
"You stay first, we can't let the Duan family's conspiracy succeed. After you go back, my sister will come to pick you up after arranging things at home. Don't worry, my sister can be without anyone, and she won't want you. ”
Wei Jue nodded aggrievedly, holding his sister's arm with red eyes.
Looking at the affectionate appearance of the little sisters, Mrs. He was also very satisfied.
Since Sihua'er was allowed to stay, she must have to arrange a room for her alone, so she chose the courtyard next to Miss Three, and transferred Miss Five's yard to let her live next to Sihua'er. The beautiful name is that the three little girls are of the same age and are good at reading and playing together, but they actually want to get the fifth lady and Wei Jue closer to each other.
Having solved this most headache problem at present, Wei Jin put his mind at ease and followed Uncle Wei away. I didn't stop much along the way, and went directly to Ganzhou City.
Fifth Uncle Wei's opinion of Wei Jin is also changing day by day. Before, it may have been the ordinary mentality of the juniors in the clan, at most, I think this little girl is very funny, and her brain is flexible and not dull. Later, I felt that it was a pity that she was not born as a man, and even many young masters couldn't bear the hard work along the way, and this little girl endured it without saying a word.
When he arrived in Ganzhou City, from checking the warehouse to sorting the accounts to inspecting the workshop, and going up the mountain to inspect the tea garden, it took half a month of hard work to set it down, which made Uncle Wei feel emotional, and quietly told the fourth brother that he had picked up the treasure.
"That's not it, this is also dividing the sect, if it is in the main branch, I'm afraid it's not a family with a hundred families."
But here, Wei Jin's toughness and ability make many men afraid, and those who come to ask for marriage with a shy face are coming for the Wei family's property. Wei Jin sneered at these people and resolutely refused to allow her two sisters to make decisions for her.
The Duan family was really as shameless as she guessed, but fortunately their news came in time, and when the Duan family had not used the most shameless means, the fourth lady found Dahuaer and Erhuaer to go over and tell them about the He family's desire to marry Dabao.
Da Hua'er is a person who can't hide her words, and when she turns her head, she is tricked out, and it makes Erhua so angry that her family has a big fire. Even the eldest brother-in-law was angry, scolded her, and didn't allow the eight women in the family to come to her, which made the villagers stop gossiping.
Fortunately, Wei Jin and Mrs. He have already agreed on this matter, and Dabao himself has no opinion, he completely trusts his sister and will not harm him.
Wei Jin is good at painting, and not many people know about it, and even if she does, she doesn't know that she can paint vividly.
In front of the fourth uncle and the fourth lady, she drew a portrait of the fifth lady, not to mention ten, at least seven or eight points, and she didn't even miss her demeanor.
Dabao looked at the portrait and blushed like a monkey. As if he was a stock, he nodded happily, and his eyes kept peeking at each other.
"Look at you like this!" Wei Jin blasted him out in disgust, turned his head and complained to the fourth lady, "This big child has begun to admire other girls, and he hasn't been so interested in studying." ”
"How can you bury your brother like this. Young Mu Ai, he's not at this age anymore. You see that most of his former classmates are married, and even have children, even if he is younger, doesn't he have to admire girls? It's all like you, no one can look down on you, you just be an old girl. ”
The fourth lady was angry, and stretched out her finger and poked her forehead.
"Why is it so difficult for you to see a husband?"
"I'm not going to get married, what's the good thing about getting married." Wei Jin pouted, "Look at my fourth uncle, just because of a virtuous wife like you, he doesn't care about anything every day, he just reads with his disciples, goes out fishing, and lives like a fairy." As for you, you are busy at home, and your feet don't touch the ground, and you don't see my fourth uncle feel sorry for you. ”
The fourth lady glared at her, and when she stared, she laughed, and shoved her into her arms.
"You little one. My mouth is like honey, no wonder I like you so much. She sighed, "Don't blame your fourth uncle, he has calculated it, at least he won't stuff any warblers and swallows into the house." The men in the family have grown up like this, don't expect them to coax you sweetly. I'm not bad, your fourth uncle also feels sorry for me, and thinks about me everywhere he goes. ”
The fourth lady didn't say anything else, but only hugged Wei Jin and let out a long breath.
"If you don't marry, you won't marry, it's not that our family can't afford to support you."
The fourth lady compromised and patted Wei Jin's head.
"Okay, don't be coquettish, let's go, go to the warehouse, there are a lot of things I want in advance, I have to make up for everything in a hurry, and I have to find someone to watch the day, and I have to go to the eight characters, there are many things."
The two places are far apart, and it takes a lot of time to ask Najib to kiss them, and they have to find someone to make a trip to give the dowry gift, which must be arranged in advance.
"That's right." When she went to the treasury to pick up things, the fourth lady pulled Wei Jin and whispered, "I discussed it with your fourth uncle, and let Dabao go to the main branch to live for a year or two after the New Year. Wait three years and come back for the next exam, and it's almost the same. ”
The fourth lady means that both of them are still young and are not in a hurry to get married, so they will settle the family affairs first, and then prepare slowly. Wait until three years later, the fifth lady and the second lady are gone, and the big treasure here will be promoted in the re-examination, but there will be no double happiness.
Wei Jin has no opinion on these arrangements, and it is all up to the fourth lady to decide.
As soon as they finished the ceremony of greeting relatives, someone came from the main branch, specifically looking for Wei Jin.
"What? Want to pick up Miss Wei San to the main branch? The fourth lady glanced at the visitor, she was the only female clansman's personal maid in the clan, and she had been serving her for more than 30 years, and she was not a person who didn't know how to measure.
"Fourth lady, I really can't tell you about this matter, and the fourth lady will understand when she goes back to see her aunt and grandmother."
The female clan is always the sister of the current patriarch, who made great contributions to the clan back then, and later her husband died, and she had no biological children, so she was taken back by the Wei family to be raised, and later she was respected as the clan elder, specializing in dealing with the affairs of women in the clan.
The fourth lady knew that she couldn't stop this, thought about it, and planned to go with Wei Jin.
"Don't, my aunt and grandmother know that the fourth lady is here to handle the marriage for Miss Wei San's younger brother, and she specially sent some useful ones from her private treasury, so I ask the fourth lady to do this properly."
Is this forbidden for her to pass? Is it really the same as she guessed? The fourth lady twisted the handkerchief in her hand, her eyebrows tightened.
