Leaving Princess Hualuxe's Mansion, it was almost dusk.
Zhou An warmly left Da Chen and Yan Wei's mother and son to live in their own house temporarily, so as not to suffer from running around and working hard, Da Chen was not worried about his sister, and after seeing that his son did not object, he nodded and agreed.
The two families had a snack, the eldest Chen accompanied the little Chen to rest, and the cousins sat in the court, holding the bottle to the moon.
"Mother Fang Cai quietly asked me, what do you want from the future Xijun, I-"
Zhou settled for a moment before he said: "Don't hide it from my cousin, as long as I think of my mother's hardship for half of her life, and for me, I want to retreat from the bride, I feel guilty." β
He didn't really want to get married.
Zhou An, who was born in a wealthy family and grew up in a wealthy family, has seen with his own eyes how hideous he is under the sanctimonious appearance. In the seemingly prosperous and splendid courtyard of the deep house, human life is like mustard.
Therefore, he did not want to meet a person who was a complete stranger, but who had to be with him for half a lifetime, and gave birth to many children.
He was afraid of the person who had his hair knotted, and it was completely different from what he thought.
He is a docile face, but he is often to blame for his servants and maids, and his hands are stained with human blood.
But Zhou An also knew that his mother was wholeheartedly looking forward to him finding a beloved to marry.
From his mother's whispers, Zhou An learned about the past.
His father, who died young, was the only light in his mother's life.
Although the couple had only met for the first time on the day of their marriage, the father had long understood what misfortune would happen to his wife in the future.
He used his weak body to block in front of his mother.
In the last few years of his life, he obviously couldn't eat, and he had to drink medicine with difficulty, just hoping to live a few more days.
As long as he is alive and has a trace of shame, the men who don't want to bear the charge of forcing his brother and son to death will not attack his wife.
"My father even arranged for my unsuspecting mother to meet King Liang 'unexpectedly'." Zhou An's voice was so light that it was almost inaudible, "He knows that he can't shelter his mother for long, and the Chen family is unreliable, so he hopes to find a stronger support for her, who knows-"
King Liang actually died before his father.
The only opportunity was missed.
Yan Wei sighed softly.
If it weren't for the deep love between husband and wife, Xiao Chen's would not have been able to hold on at all.
It is precisely because she has been deeply loved that she must watch their sons grow up, marry wives and have children, and continue the bloodline of her husband, so that she will not become a lonely ghost under the spring, and there will be no blood to eat.
Therefore, Zhou An can't shirk the marriage.
The only thing he could do was to pick a good enough one from among the vast aristocratic ladies in the royal capital.
"If you can trust your cousin, you might as well convince your aunt to wait a year and a half." Yan Wei raised his wine glass and smiled at Zhou An, "Cousin will marry a good gentleman for you." β
Zhou An was very convinced of Yan Wei, and immediately said: "Cousin, if you fancy any woman, you must ask your future sister-in-law if she has a sister-in-law, and you can also give a handkerchief to your foolish brother!" β
From his mother, he had heard about Yan Wei's past, saying that he had almost decided on family affairs when he was a teenager, and he was also the eldest daughter of a wealthy family on the border, but Yan Wei delayed on the grounds that "his eldest father is seriously ill and has no time for family affairs".
Then, General Yan died, and Yan Wei gave up his official position to his second brother, and everything changed.
Without the protection of his eldest father, no official position, and even no money, only orphans and widows, a few acres of thin land, and his fiancΓ©e, who was originally going to be given to him, became a second sister-in-law.
Yan Wei had to become the laughing stock of others' ridicule, saying that if he had decided his family affairs early and had the support of the Yue family, he would not have stumbled to this point.
Zhou An was glad for Yan Wei.
In his opinion, his cousin is handsome, outstanding, talented, and extraordinary. As long as you are a person with eyes, you can see that your cousin must have a bright future.
Just because my cousin didn't have an official position for the time being, he immediately changed his court, and it was not the person who dared to value it, but the official.
Such a person with eyes and no beads, don't do it.
As for why Yan Wei didn't marry for nine years, Zhou An can also understand.
What good woman can there be in the country?
It's normal for my cousin to look down on it.
Zhou An knew that his cousin was not a thing in the pool, and this time Princess Huayi invited them to a banquet, and Yan Wei went out for most of the day in the middle of the banquet, obviously a private appointment by a nobleman.
With the talent of a cousin, how can the other party not value it? Soaring is just around the corner.
The more Zhou An thought about it, the more he felt that entrusting his marriage to Yan Wei was really the best choice. It's best to be a brother-in-law with your cousin, the woman's moral character is guaranteed, and the two families are closer, wouldn't it be wonderful?
For a woman, marriage is tantamount to a second reincarnation.
For men, marriage is equally important.
If you marry an ignorant troublemaker, your children will be affected, and your family business will suffer.
The fine gentleman carefully selected by the cousin is sure that there are no big flaws in character and morality, and those who can make good friends with the future sister-in-law are naturally good women.
His heart was hot, but he heard Yan Wei's slightly smiling voice sound: "For my brother, I don't have the idea of getting married for the time being." β
Zhou An was stunned: "Why? β
Yan Wei is very open-minded: "I hope that the future fine gentleman can be like-minded with me in career and have similar interests in life." A woman who can meet these two points must be wise and reasonable. Once you know my true nature, how can you be willing to really have heart to heart with me? β
A woman who looks up to others can be satisfied as long as her husband's love is heavy, her children are excellent, and her food and clothes are gorgeous.
But why did he marry such a woman? Just look outside, concubine beauty, which is not a vine born dependent on a man?
Stewardship is not a big skill, as long as there is an opportunity, everyone can learn.
Zheng Guo has two queens before and after, the queen of the Yuan is a famous and noble girl, and the queen of prostitution is just a prostitute, and her background is like a cloud, why can she manage the court well?
Besides, if he really wants to socialize, he doesn't have to rely on his wife to socialize!
Isn't it simpler and more convenient to raise a group of powerful doormen?
Yan Wei has high requirements for the other half of the future, but he knows very well that women who really have ideas, have opinions, and don't rely on men to live, such as Princess Huayi who I saw today, people don't want to be such a cold and cold person as him.
Even if he really chooses a woman he thinks is good, teach him by word and deed, with his character, the other party will either be raised to obey him, or he will be very disappointed in his cold character, knowing the relationship between husband and wife, flesh and blood, nothing is here for him, everything is planned for his own interests.
If life is like this, simply don't get married in the first place.
Zhou An couldn't understand his cousin's indifference, and couldn't help asking: "If the eldest aunt urges ......?"
Yan Wei calmed down: "Then I'll work hard, get a few children out of the house, send them to their mother, and Cheng Huan will knees!" β
