Pian Pian and Changle Xiao Yu'er quickly put on a dress made of misty shadow yarn. However, because Changle and Xiaoyu'er were still young, the skirts they wore with water-red acacia flowers were too bright, so Jinniang made goose-yellow dresses for the two little girls.

Li Hehui sent two mist shadow yarns, one was water red and the other was delicate goose yellow. The color of the two horses is very tender, which is very suitable for young and beautiful little girls.

made the same color for Changle and Xiaoyuer, with a slightly different style of shirt and skirt, as for the clothes made for Pianpian, it was the leftover fabric used by Jin Niang. Therefore, it is also a water-red shirt, worn on a young and delicate little girl, which is both bright and good-looking, and the color of the whole person is a little better.

The more Jin Niang looks at her three girls, the more beautiful and lovely she becomes, but such a good girl, maybe she won't be her own family in a few years. Changle and Xiaoyuer are still young, and they are not in a hurry to say goodbye, but they are already twelve or thirteen years old, at this age, the adults in the family generally began to pay attention to their daughters, and Jinniang couldn't help but feel worried.

She wanted to stay for a few more years, after all, she definitely didn't have a happy time when she got married. She is because she married her mother-in-law who doesn't care about things, there is no concubine above, and the brother-in-law below does not marry a wife, and the sister-in-law is good, so she has a good life. But how many people are like this? Even if I go through the entire capital several times, I'm afraid I can't find two of them.

Nowadays, people pay attention to one parent not being separated, and they pay attention to having many children and blessings, so most families live together as a large family. Let's not talk about how many rooms and generations live together, how crowded the residence should be, let's just say that there are more people and more things, she is worried that she will marry Pian Pian to such a family, her Pian Pian is like a simple and harmless lamb into the tiger's den in Longtan, and finally ends up with no bones.

It's not an exaggeration to say this, nor is it to underestimate Pianpin's ability, but to know the character of the children you raise. Pian Pian looked very resolute and resolute, and she was very capable of bluffing people when she took it out, but she could deal with the provocative calculations above board, which did not mean that she could get out of the face of those selfish calculations and conspiracy calculations hiding behind her back.

After all, the Xu family is clean and there is nothing dirty, but the family she will marry in the future doesn't know what the details are. If she and Xu Erlang accidentally missed something, they would not be harmed.

Although this dynasty is much more tolerant of women, it is also very harsh in many ways. Besides, getting married is like a woman's second reincarnation, if you don't choose it well, the girl's family will be ruined for the rest of her life.

With this idea in her heart, Jin Niang was not very enthusiastic about the matchmaker who came to give her "Daoxi" these days.

It's time for Pian Pian to look good, but the candidate for her future husband, Jin Niang decided to pick and choose slowly with Xu Erlang. As for these people who didn't talk to the main family in private, they directly sent the official media to propose marriage, and Jinniang drove them out under the pretext of expulsion.

On this day, Pian Pian came to her sister-in-law to get an idea, to see what kind of congratulatory gift the old lady of Pingxi Hou Mansion would give for her 60th birthday, but when she walked to the door of Cuibai Garden, she bumped into a woman who came from inside.

The woman was about forty years old, and she had a round white skin and a round face, and she looked very amiable with a smile. But her gaze at people made Pian Pian not very comfortable, as if she was looking at some kind of goods, which made Pian Pian feel a bad feeling suddenly rise in her heart.

She didn't even bother to say hello to anyone, so she walked directly past the person. But the well-dressed woman stood behind her and looked at her for a long time after she left, and her piercing gaze made Pianpian sweat and hairs rise all over her body.

Pian Pian entered the flower hall and saw her sister-in-law teasing Brother Rong who had just woken up while drinking tea. Brother Rong could already see what was in front of him, and he was teased by his mother in his arms, giggling happily.

Pian Pian was also happy to see her little nephew, and carefully took the child from Jin Niang's arms, and hugged him in a circle in the house.

Brother Rong is a good child, who doesn't cry when he hugs him. Besides, the person in front of him is also common, and his breath is also familiar, so after being held in Pianpian's arms, he is still as cheerful as just now, opening round black eyes and looking at everything in the place where he can see curiously.

After not playing for a while, Brother Rong got tired of it, and his eyes kept looking outside, obviously wanting to go out. He screamed in Pianpian's arms, glaring at his calves angrily, and his little face was wrinkled.

Seeing this, Pian Pian was even more happy, kissed her little nephew's white cheek, and said with a smile, "Brother Rong looks more and more like the second brother, sister-in-law, do you look like his angry appearance, does he look like the second brother?" ”

Not like!

Your second brother has always been moody. Even if he is angry, he will not show it on his face, but through his eyes, he will spread the message of his anger. And Brother Rong, a small group who can only eat and drink Lazar, compare him with his father, but pull it down.

Jin Niang beckoned the nurse to come over, hugged the little ball and went outside to take a turn.

It's not too hot outside these days, so it's nice to go outside. After a while, the sun will be scorching, and it will be uncomfortable for the child to go out.

After Brother Rong left, the flower hall was clean, and Jin Niang asked Pian Pian to sit down and talk to her.

Pian Pian came up and went straight to the point, and told Jin Niang about the things that he couldn't decide. Jin Niang took the gift list she had drawn up, crossed out the Su Hexiang and the century-old ginseng, and replaced these two with a screen carved with black lacquer ivory to ward off all diseases, as well as a set of six blue and blue blue tea Gu on a yellow background and blue edge.

After the change, Jin Niang also explained to Pian Pian that it made sense, "Whether it's going to congratulate or visit the sick, we don't send out things that are generally taboo." The most important of these is food and daily necessities, as long as they are not particularly close to people, it is best not to let these things flow out of our hands. Otherwise, if there is a real case, we will not be able to say if we have a thousand mouths on our bodies. ”

He added, "The old lady of Pingxi Hou Mansion is not young, and it is normal to have a headache and brain fever. But the old ladies of the noble mansion of Gaomen, even if there is a feint in the body, it is a big deal, you said that when she was sick, she happened to use the Su Hexiang we sent, or after taking the medicine boiled with the ginseng we sent, her body was not only not proper, but it was more serious, who is this? Although people may not necessarily settle all the accounts on us at that time, they will be more or less angry. We give gifts sincerely, but in the end, it fell down, why do you say this? Therefore, when you send something to the past, you must consider it again and again, and when you can send something dead, you must not give a living thing, and when you can send something valuable, you must not give something that can show off your closeness. ”

Seeing that Pian Pian listened to a half-understanding, Jin Niang patted her hand, "You are still young, you haven't gone through this matter, and you can handle it when you get used to it in the future." ”

After saying this, Jin Niang said, "In addition to the screen and tea Gu I chose above, on the day of the old lady's birthday, I will give a pair of clothes, shoes and socks made by myself, which also shows our filial piety." ”

Pianpian: Okay, inside and out, all aspects of my sister-in-law have been considered, and there is nothing wrong with listening to my sister-in-law and going with my sister-in-law.

After saying this, Pian Pian asked about the woman she had just met at the gate of the courtyard. When Jin Niang heard this, she didn't hide it, so she said, "That person, she is the official media of the capital." ”

As soon as she heard the word "official media", Pianpiao's brows furrowed, and then she realized that the second brother and the second sister-in-law had said that they were not in a hurry to marry the third brother, after all, the third brother had no fame, and it was not easy to tell him a daughter from a good family.

This is the reason why the second brother and the second sister-in-law urged the third brother to work hard, so that he can have a chance as soon as possible, and there is a lot of room for choice when they see each other in the future, so that they can tell him a good family affair with all four corners as much as possible.

Since the third brother's family affairs have been put on hold, do you need to say it to anyone?

Pian Pian blushed at first, and then became angry, "Sister-in-law, I don't think that woman is a good person, let's ignore her." ”

Jin Niang patted her, "Good people are not good people, you can see it at a glance?" We are not related to her, what does it have to do with us if she is a good person or a bad person? It's the family she says is interested in you. ”

At this point, Jin Niang suddenly felt that what she said was wrong, because the matchmaker's character was good or bad, and it still had something to do with them.

Because some matchmakers are black-hearted, they can say that the white is black and the black is white, and not many people are dizzy by the matchmaker's mouth, and they marry their daughters in a daze. The result was good, and he pushed the girl directly into the fire pit.

But there is also the matchmaker, who is virtuous and conscientious. Such a matchmaker laid out the conditions of both parties one by one in advance, and never deceived them. Therefore, after such a matchmaker's hand, most of the husband and wife are affectionate, and there are few resentful couples.

And the matchmaker who came to say goodbye to Pianpian was the former or the latter, and it was not clear if she had only contacted Jinniang twice. However, the matchmaker said that the man's family was full of flowers, and the man himself was handsome and dignified, and the future was immeasurable, all of which were good words, but there was not a word that was not, and the matchmaker was not a good one, so she only picked the good ones and took them out to coax people, and those dirty noodles were hidden and did not dare to take them out to meet people.

Jin Niang said to Pianpian, "I thought the matchmaker was unreliable, so I coaxed her out." As for the person who told you to kiss, I haven't heard of it, and when your second brother comes, I'll ask him to inquire about you. ”

Pian Pian knew that she was ashamed this time, so she stomped her feet shamefully and said, "What are you asking, don't ask your sister-in-law, the third brother hasn't decided to marry yet, how can I grab him in front of him." Let's wait for the third brother to get married and then think about my affairs, I'm still young. ”

Not small!

Nowadays, most of the girls are sixteen married, and there are also those who are anxious to marry someone into the door as soon as the girl is married. Of course, it is not for nothing that eighteen are married, and most of the families in the capital who love girls leave people until eighteen before going out.

But Pian Pian is now thirteen years old, if it goes well, you can find a suitable person in a year and a half. At that time, it will take three or five years to pass the three books and six ceremonies, and when these things are slowly sorted out, it will be time for her to be out of line.

This is still smooth, if it doesn't go well, it will take two or three years just to see each other. And the flowering period of the girl's house is limited, and there are many people staring at the good son, so if you don't start early, not only did you miss the girl's flowering period, but the good girl was also snatched away in advance, so it was okay!

Jin Niang talked a lot with Pian Pian again, and finally succeeded in leaving Pian Pian ashamed.

Later, Xu Erlang returned home, and Jin Niang told her about the matchmaker's wife coming to propose to Pian Pian again. The family in charge of the matchmaker is also an official, and the father of the son is said to be the left temple of Zhengliupin Dali Temple. This person's grade is comparable to Xu Erlang, if it is only from the perspective of family background, their son-in-law and Pianpian are quite compatible.

After all, everyone outside knows that Xu Erlang loves his younger siblings and treats them like children. In this way, two unmarried men and women are of equal ranks, and this family affair is quite appropriate.

It can be said that you can't just look at the surface light, but also look at the inside. Therefore, what Jin Niang meant was to let Xu Erlang find someone to check it out.

She privately disagreed with this marriage, but she still drove Xu Erlang to do it, and there were two purposes. The first is to see whether the matchmaker is good or bad. The second is to have more insight and see how the marriage market is disrupted by these matchmakers. In the future, she will wake up better, and when she chooses her brother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she will keep her eyes open and look more.

Xu Erlang was very effective and actionable, and promised Jinniang to send someone to investigate, and the next day he sent Huhe to deal with the matter.

Huhe was personally trained by Xu Erlang, and his ability is also very strong, just to check some news, this matter can't be simpler for him.

So at noon, all the news that Jin Niang wanted was handed to her desk.

It's really not a joke to say that Kua Huhe has strong ability, after all, in such a short period of time, he can dig out such a secret thing as the matchmaker's wife raising a little white face, and even find out how much this old woman was good with when she was young, and she still has a clear understanding of who she has broken with, and there is no one else in Huhe's ability.

In the end, there was a thick pile of information sent to Jinniang's desk, and it also recorded a lot of sins that the matchmaker had done.

Is she a matchmaker, and all the sins are done by Lalang.

It's not bad what Jin Niang expected, this is a black-hearted matchmaker. Just found in the Huhe River, there are several cases of the matchmaker tricking the beautiful cardamom girl into marrying a lame blind man in his sixties.

There are a few more hateful cases, that is, this old woman told the sweet little girl about her family in the name of the official media. But the man had already died in an accident, and it was the man's parents who were worried that their son would be desolate down there, so they decided to give their son a **. So the girl was buried alive the next day. It's a pity that the man has a lot of money, and the girl's family can only knock out their teeth and swallow blood, and they are angry with the girl's mother.

There is another case that is also under the same guise, saying that the girl was told to a person with a certain surname, and even the matchmaker brought the man over to see each other openly. As a result, on the day of marriage, the groom was changed, and the girl married an octogenarian man who was full of wives and concubines, and she was not a wife, but a concubine.
