Chapter 78: The Matter of Marriage

Zhao Xiuqin's expression and movements when she spoke were completely reflected in Mrs. Zhang's eyes, and she subconsciously felt that what Zhao Xiuqin was going to say next must be something unusual, so she didn't even open her mouth to interrupt Zhao Xiuqin's words, nodded silently, and waited for Zhao Xiuqin to take on the words herself.

Zhao Xiuqin asked her with a mysterious face: "Do you know what perfume is?" ”

This rare word made Mrs. Zhang subconsciously rub her face, at this moment her face is coated with incense powder, their family is far richer than the Fang family, plus she relies on her face and tongue to eat, so she will never be stingy with her own face.

She is such a delicate woman, she naturally knows and understands some knowledge more than Zhao Xiuqin, she thinks so in her heart, so when she heard the unfamiliar words in Zhao Xiuqin's mouth, and she couldn't find this word in her mind, she frowned slightly and looked puzzled.

"Old sister, I've heard of incense powder and spices, but I haven't heard of any perfumes, what kind of thing is perfume, isn't it water that can exude fragrance like spices? Where does this fairy water come from? I can buy that rouge shop, so I'll buy two or three bottles and use them back. ”

"You must have never heard of this perfume, I didn't know about this thing before, or our girl told me."

When Mrs. Zhang heard her mention Fang Tian, she couldn't help but think of the original topic: "Hey, weren't we talking about your girl just now, why did we get involved in perfume again, are we going far?" ”

No matter how experienced and flexible Mrs. Zhang was, she never imagined that Fang Tian would be able to design things, in her eyes, Fang Tian was just a little girl, even if she really paid some attention to being different from others, she shouldn't be so capable.

"No, it's not far-fetched at all, you just listen to me."

Zhao Xiuqin proudly took Mrs. Zhang's hand, and told Mrs. Zhang in detail and seriously about her girl's design of perfumes and her plans to do business.

These things really scared Mrs. Zhang, she was so shocked that she almost dropped her jaw to the ground, she really couldn't imagine that Fang Tian was such a person with ideas, after all, opening a shop to do business, it is generally a man's business, women open a shop to make money, and she is still a young girl, she has such courage and ability, it is really impressive.

The more Mrs. Zhang looked at it, the more she felt that Fang Tian would definitely be a great character in the future, and she couldn't help but feel a little more respectful.

"But I can't quite understand why your girl is so capable, this development of perfume and refining essential oils is not something that ordinary girls can imagine, your girl is too thoughtful."

Zhao Xiuqin was about to tell all the things to her good sisters in the past, and suddenly felt that this was not appropriate, after all, the things Fang Tian had experienced, the strange world she dreamed of, not everyone could receive it, and it was okay to tell her family, it would not be good if it was spread out, in case Fang Tian was treated as a monster by others because of this matter, then how could she live, and how would she marry in the future?

Although Zhao Xiuqin has a tendon, she always has a lot of ideas about the future of her children, after all, as a parent, she will always subconsciously imagine the future life for her children.

"Actually, I don't know very well how she came up with these methods, she has liked to study those flowers and plants since she was a child, maybe one day she saw flowers and plants and then thought of things and methods, I don't know, after all, she is smart, although she is my own girl, but it has always been different from me."

Zhang Matchmaker's mother-in-law is like a character, how could she not see Zhao Xiuqin's thoughts, she smiled, and did not expose this obvious lie, she coughed lightly and said: "Your girl is really smart, I said that I have been talking about it for most of my life, and I have seen countless girls, and she is the most intelligent and has ideas." ”

Hearing the praise of her former best friend, Zhao Xiuqin had a smile on her face: "That's, of course my girl is smart." ”

"I remember that your girl is about the same age as my son, and she must have reached the age of marriage, I don't know if your girl can allow someone else now, or if she has a sweetheart?"

When Mrs. Zhang spoke, she looked at Zhao Xiuqin's expression without blinking, and looked at all her demeanor very carefully.

"Alas, I won't tell you the truth, my girl hasn't landed yet, the incident that caused a stir a few days ago, you must have heard of it, the girl in our family was originally set to be a scholar of the Zhao family, and then they hated the poor and loved the rich, and they made love with the daughter of the king in the town, and the marriage between our two families was scrapped."

This matter was in an uproar a few days ago, and it must be impossible for a well-informed person like Mrs. Zhang not to have heard of it, so Zhao Xiuqin sighed and stopped talking.

All her distress fell on Mrs. Zhang's eyes, and she also sighed, and even helped Zhao Wenxuan scold Zhao Wenxuan for a few words.

In the end, she stopped and asked, "Since the marriage contract has been annulled, should she start anew?" Zhao Xiuqin didn't think about this, but the reality was very ashamed.

Zhao Xiuqin said with a bitter face: "Actually, I haven't thought about renegotiating the matter of marriage, but what my girl did before was really a bit excessive, alas, after all, it was a big thing because of feelings, and even in order to marry that scholar, she still wanted to be a concubine for someone else, and jumped into the river for this, this thing is like this, it is naturally very tricky, and it has affected her reputation, and now no one dares to come to our house to say goodbye, maybe those people regard my girl as a laughing stock after dinner." ”

The more Zhao Xiuqin thought about it, the more angry she felt, she felt sorry for the hearts of parents all over the world, she was a mother, so she naturally felt sorry for her daughter, especially when she thought that Fang Tian might not be able to marry in the future, the more distressed she was.

Mrs. Zhang's eyes rolled, and she held Zhao Xiuqin's hand tightly and comforted: "Good sister, the mouth is all on other people's faces, and the days are our own, what others say, we can't care about it, and there is no need to care, it's all in the past, as long as life is comfortable now, it's the last word, let those who have broken mouths say it, they can say it whatever they like, whatever they want, it's a big deal when they don't hear it." ”

What Mrs. Zhang said was not unreasonable, Zhao Xiuqin raised her eyes, saw her skin clearly, and suddenly showed joy on her face, she was confused, this most skillful matchmaker in a hundred miles is in front of her, why worry about Fang Tian not being able to marry in the future?

Zhao Xiuqin held Mrs. Zhang's hand, her eyes lit up and she said expectantly: "Good sister, you are the best matchmaker in this hundred miles, you helped my son to get married, then please help my daughter talk about marriage by the way, you are well-informed, it must not be difficult to help my girl find a good family?" ”

Zhao Xiuqin's words hit the heart of Mrs. Zhang, she smiled and said: "Sister, your daughter is also my niece, she should do her best, since you have entrusted her marriage to me, then I will do my best to handle it, and I will definitely help her find a good family." ”

Mrs. Zhang said, paused and said, "Actually, I have a very suitable candidate now, but I don't dare to speak to my sister." ”

She has already put Fang Tian's marriage on her, so what is not easy to talk about between the two of them: "Tell me, who is the right person in your heart, do I know it, how is the character and family background?" ”

"Sister, you know, you should have seen it, her character and family background are all good, and her age is about the same size as your girl, presumably if the two of them can get together as a pair, they will definitely be able to live comfortably."

When a woman marries, the first thing to consider is the other party's family background, followed by talent and temperament, and finally appearance and age.

Because Mrs. Zhang was a close friend of her when she was young, and the two were very close, coupled with the popularity that Mrs. Zhang has accumulated in this neighborhood over the years, she said that person is good, and Zhao Xiuqin believes it for seven or eight points.

"You said that I also know that child, but I have no impression of such a person, dare to ask him what his surname is, where does his family live? It's a big deal for a girl to get married, and I have to meet it in person to feel at ease. ”

"It should be, it should be."

Mrs. Zhang smiled shyly and said: "That child is also my son, I like your girl very much, it just so happens that my son has reached the age of marriage, our two parents are familiar with each other, and the two children's personalities and tempers are very clear, presumably if they can be together, they will definitely be an excellent couple." ”

Zhao Xiuqin's expression changed slightly and she did not speak.

Her appearance did not mean to dislike the son of Zhang Matchmaker's mother-in-law, her silence came from Fang Tian.

Seeing her silence, Mrs. Zhang's heart moved slightly, and she took her hand and recalled the past: "Sister, do you remember what happened back then, when the two of us were pregnant at about the same time, sister, you were sick at the time, and your body was very weak, when we went to the temple to pray for incense, the two of us met, and we both felt very coincidental, and then once joked that we were going to give the two children fingertips for marriage, do you remember?" ”

Zhao Xiuqin was stunned, and thought about it for a long time before recalling this past.

When she was just pregnant with Shang Tian that year, she was indeed not in good health, just because she didn't put down the root of the disease when she was born Fang Tian, so she was very weak when she was pregnant with Fang Tian, and even several times, she thought that she couldn't give birth to this child, but she was so stubborn and refused to admit defeat easily, so she often went to the temple to pray for blessings.

At that time, there was indeed a time in the temple and happened to meet Mrs. Zhang, at that time, the two of them had no contact for a long time because they were married, and when the two of them talked together, they talked about the fetus in the womb, and they felt very close, because the time of the two people's pregnancy could not be closer.

In terms of Buddhism, this is fate, it's like a story in a book, and the two people are very happy, saying that after the child is born, if it is a man and a woman, let them marry in the future, and if it is the same gender, they will worship.

Because the matter is too long, and there is rarely contact between the two families, this agreement to marry has been delayed, and now it is mentioned again by Mrs. Zhang, which gives people a feeling of being in a different world.
