Chapter 370: Being Disliked
The former Shoufu surnamed Xu, the word Shaojiang, is the descendant of the Jiangnan family, and the fertile land in the family is not only tilted, it should be said that the land of Huating County, Songjiang Prefecture belongs to their family.
The Xu family who talked to Lee Myung-hyuk about the marriage of their children is this Xu, but they are the descendants of seven generations, and they are far away from Xu Shaojiang.
In a three-entry courtyard, in the middle of the backyard, a middle-aged woman in plain clothes entered the main house under the guidance of the maid.
There was a middle-aged man in brocade clothes lying on the big kang in the main house, the man was swallowing clouds and spitting fog with a cigarette pouch in his mouth, and the woman came in and sat directly beside him and snatched his cigarette pouch and said: "Smoke and smoke, you know to smoke, when to smoke to death, such a good weather, you can't go out for a walk?!" ”
The woman is Mrs. Xu, who has a good relationship with Mrs. Shen, and the man is his father-in-law, Wang Hong, who served as the commander of the military selection in the Ministry of Officials, has been a jinshi for three years, Xu Maoyang.
Xu Maoyang was robbed of his pipe, and said impatiently: "You're back?" What are you doing when you come back and grab my cigarette pouch? ”
Mrs. Xu hated iron and said, "You sit up for me!" ”
Although Xu Maoyang is a child of a family, he is surprisingly lazy, likes to smoke cigarette pouches, is stingy and afraid of his wife, otherwise although he is far away from the Xu family, as long as it is a family in the officialdom, or even from a place, he can find someone to bless him, he will not be so unproductive today.
He sat up after a long time and asked, "You came back from the Shen family?" Why is the temper so big, what's the matter? ”
Mrs. Xu waved her hand to let her subordinates retreat, and then she took off her coat and put it on the kang and said: "I inquired today, the previous families didn't tell me the truth, you have to give your son the daughter of the Li family, she is not the eldest lady who is serious at all, she is a village girl who grew up in the countryside, and she only returned to the Li family a few years ago, and she is not worthy of our family at all!" ”
Xu Maoyang took back the cigarette pouch, squinted his eyes and swallowed the clouds, and said indifferently: "What's this, isn't it better for Aunt Shanye to obey your discipline?" Do you like to marry a real lady back?!
Let me tell you, there is a public case in the affairs of the Li family, although this Miss Li has been sent to the fence, but I have inquired, the new Marquis Li Minghe really loves her, Li Minghe only has two daughters, no sons, and now he has inherited the title, and the things of the Li family in the future are not all the two aunts? This young lady is favored, which is exactly what our family needs. ”
What else did Mrs. Xu say, Xu Maoyang blamed the house and said: "The owner said that he was going to move away, if he could scrape together enough three hundred taels of silver, he would sell this yard to us, otherwise he would not rent it out, and he would sell it to others.
Do you want to tell everyone that our family is in debt and can't open the pot?!
Hurry up and marry someone back, and get the dowry money is real. ”
Although the Xu family is a child of a big family, but in the end it is a side branch, Xu Maoyang's father and brother are very fond of gambling, and they have already lost all their family property.
Mrs. Xu said with excitement on her face: "So we can't marry her, I talked to Mrs. Shen today, and I inquired about a person, this person is the right person for our daughter-in-law."
This girl's surname is Liu, she turned out to be the daughter of the leader of the Cao Gang, because of the distribution, she was kicked out of the Cao Gang, but she brought out Wanguan's family wealth, she has no parents yet, if she marries her, then her Wanguan family wealth is not all ours?!
Although he Li Minghe is a new marquis, how much dowry can he give to his daughter? One thousand, two thousand? Five thousand, right?
I count him as 10,000, that's not as much as Miss Liu's, what's more, there is no one in the Liu family, we want money, and the daughter-in-law can get it when she passes through the door, she dares not to divorce her, but Miss Li is different, you have to coax how much money you have, do you dare to say a word about her? She has a mother's family! ”
Xu Maoyang put down the cigarette pouch and sighed, and said with a greedy look: "Is there really a young lady from the Cao Gang?" Is it reliable? ”
"Reliable, what Mrs. Shen said is still false? Moreover, this young lady has a relationship with the Yan family, and I have thought about the people who propose marriage, so I will find Mrs. Yan family. ”
"If that's really the case, God really helps my Xu family!" Xu Maoyang took a puff of cigarette pouch and sighed.
Isn't!
Mrs. Xu also smiled, their Xu family now needs a sum of money to help the eldest son, and Liu Qingqing is just right.
As they were talking, a young man in Tsing Yi walked in the door, the young man had good facial features and an elegant temperament, and he was a very outstanding figure in the crowd.
"Shuang'er!" Mrs. Xu exclaimed excitedly, "Why are you here?" We're talking about your marriage. ”
This person is none other than Mrs. Xu's second son, Xu Yunshuang, who is talking about marriage with the Li family!
Xu Yunshuang listened to his mother's words and said shyly: "I'm tired of my father and mother worrying about my son, did Xinjian Hou agree?" Do you want to give a dowry? ”
Mrs. Xu smiled: "Silly boy, it's not that Miss Li, it's the better Miss Liu, wait for tomorrow Niang to find someone to help you matchmaker!" ”
Xu Yunshuang was directly stupid, and said hurriedly: "Why isn't it Miss Li?" Miss Li is very good! ”
It turned out that Xu Wenshuang was a politician in the Ministry of Rites, and he was always used to following Li Minghyuk's buttocks, because Li Minghe was quiet, and then he heard about Li Minghe's daughter in the countryside, he saw Li Guangchen when the Li family had a happy event, and he liked it directly, and the reason why the Xu family was able to discuss family affairs with Li Minghe was also because he fought for it himself, and Li Minghe had a good impression of him.
Mrs. Xu didn't notice what her son was saying, and still smiled: "It's all said, Miss Liu is better!" ”
Xu Yunshuang said modestly: "I haven't seen Miss Liu, I don't know what kind of person I am, I'm afraid I won't be worthy, mother, you should tell me Miss Li." ”
Mrs. Xu is most proud of her second son, her second son, who is not bad for those big prodigies, was promoted at the age of seventeen, and then directly took the exam, although the examiner said that people were too young and should not be played now, they should hone more, and then come to the exam.
But who doesn't know how to be famous, they are seventeen years old, although the final result is the last place in the same jinshi, but they are also admitted.
How could such an excellent son not be worthy of a Jianghu woman.
Mrs. Xu was dissatisfied: "Nonsense, even if you are worthy of the young lady of Xinjian Hou, this Liu Qingqing will not talk about it anymore, just her!" ”
Xu Yunshuang was really anxious, and simply said: "Mother, I just want to marry Miss Li, I have seen her, I only marry her!" ”
Only then did Xu Maoyang and his wife understand that their son already had a heart!
