Chapter 123: Little Old White
As soon as Mrs. Wang's letter from the Governor of Yuzhou was sent back to the Shen family with the eldest young master, Lu Ying hurriedly arranged it.
First, he found a reliable noble lady in Yunzhou City to be a marriage, and the noble lady and Mrs. Wang had a somewhat distant relationship.
Then he found a happy matchmaker to prepare to go to Yuzhou to make peace, and Mrs. Wang also wrote to say that the Xu Mansion had found a matchmaker.
First, the Shen family sent Shen Yuzhu's birthday over here, and then they got married over there.
If everything is in order, the Xu family will send someone to Yunzhou Mansion to officially come to the door to propose.
The Xu family is also satisfied with the Shen family's family affair, but in fact, they mainly look at the power of the Lu family in the capital behind Lu Ying.
The married master of the Shen family is the eldest daughter, and her grandfather is a wealthy man in Longxi, and the dowry must be a lot.
Although there was such a big incident in the Shen family this time, and the people in Yuzhou also heard about it a little, the conditions of the Shen family's concubines were not bad.
Besides, the eldest young master of the Xu family is the eldest son.
Mrs. Wang married into the Xu family for many years and did not give birth, and then the elders of the family had no choice but to come forward to raise a noble concubine for her lord and give birth to a boy.
Although the boy was raised by Mrs. Wang's side, his identity was not a descendant.
Now Mrs. Wang is old and has a son, and that is a serious son-in-law.
Now that they come and go, Xu Maoshan's family affairs are not very easy to solve, and they are not high or low.
Later, Shen Zhiyi went to the Xu family as a guest, and Mrs. Wang knew the meaning of the Shen family, and she was full of joy and hurriedly responded.
Now the two families hurriedly prepared, but Shen Yuzhu was hiding in the Lanyue Pavilion, feeling sullen for a while.
She frowned and looked down at the account book on the Zhuangzi in front of her, how upset she looked.
With a snap, Shen Yuzhu pushed the account book aside, raised her head and leaned on the back of the chair, gently rubbing her eyebrows.
What does Xu Maoshan think?
She felt that she had made it clear to him that day in the Merlin.
Even if you are not a high-ranking scholar, you should have some self-esteem when you hear her talk like that, and you will definitely not agree to this matter.
How did it become like this?
Shen Yuzhu wanted to get rid of this family affair with Lu Ying, but she was full of joy and busy for her.
The words of refusal in her mouth were stunned, and she didn't know how to say them.
These little girls in the Lanyue Pavilion didn't dare to say anything more this time.
Although the entire mansion is prepared for the eldest lady's family affairs, only the eldest lady seems to be preoccupied, it is possible that she has not taken a fancy to Xu Gongzi.
In fact, Xu Gongzi has occasionally come to the Shen family with the eldest young master these days, and these girls have secretly seen it.
looks like a talent, looks dignified, and treats people gently, I don't know how many times better than those unobtrusive sons and brothers in Yunzhou City.
A few little girls didn't dare to persuade anything, the eldest lady's family affairs were not qualified to be explained.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the warm pavilion, and after a while, Ru Rong walked in with a smile.
"Sister Ru Rong is here," Yun Xiang hurriedly opened the curtain and welcomed Ru Rong in.
Ru Rong smiled with Yunxiang, bypassed the screen and blessed, Shen Yuzhu, who was sitting in front of the window, and said with a smile, "Miss Qiqi, Madame, please take a trip to Chengming Garden." ”
Shen Yuzhu was stunned.
Ru Rong explained with a smile: "Madame invited a tailor from Cuiyun Zhai, and she just came to Chengmingyuan to measure the eldest lady's body." ”
"And dozens of new satins for you to pick from."
Shen Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, obviously this was to make a wedding dress for her.
After the New Year, Xu Maoshan will enter Beijing to take the exam at the beginning of spring, and this trip will take half a year.
If Xu Maoshan is admitted to the Jinshi Examination, he will have to stay in the capital to fill the official position, and he doesn't know when he will be able to come back.
If you want to do family business, you have to do it before this.
Xu Maoshan's age is not young, and Shen Yuzhu's age is also choking enough, and the two of them said that they became this family, and they could only do it before the year.
All wedding dresses, dowries and the like must be properly prepared before this.
Shen Yuzhu settled down, and finally made up her mind in her heart.
can't let this matter develop, otherwise it will be inconvenient to act by yourself if you really marry someone by mistake in the future.
Marrying a wife, I have to go to Yuzhou to live with my in-laws, and I am a little farther away from the capital, when and what month can I find out the cause of my mother's death?
Even if Xu Maoshan is named on the gold list and wins the Jinshi, it is impossible to stay in the capital in a short time.
He had to be sent to other places as officials, and he had to follow him.
If you really want to go to the capital in the future, you have to wait until Xu Maoshan gets to the point of being a Beijing official.
His father Shen Xiaowen has not become a Beijing official for 20 years, and Xu Maoshan doesn't know how many years he will have to survive.
Shen Yuzhu's eyes flashed, she would never pin her hopes on others.
Her destiny is in the palm of her hand.
Shen Yuzhu made up her mind, but her heart was not so troubled.
Since Xu Maoshan didn't want to make it clear to her parents, she just made it clear to her mother.
Although she was a little reluctant to go, Lu Ying might also be annoyed with her, but it could only be like this.
Shen Yuzhu got up and changed her clothes, and took Yunxiang to Chengming Garden.
As soon as I stood at the door, I watched the courtyard gate of Chengming Garden go in and out.
This is to the point of asking for a name, and my mother has made such a big fuss, it feels like this family affair has been 100% completed.
Shen Yuzhu paused, stepped across the threshold with the corner of her skirt, and walked towards the main house.
As soon as she walked into the main entrance, Shen Yuzhu was taken aback by the scene in front of her.
The table in the middle of the hall was full of brocades of various colors, and there were even extremely rare brocades.
The bright colors are mostly pink, pink, crimson, and lavender, and they are used to make clothes for her.
The table of the Eight Immortals on the other side was temporarily taken out of the storeroom, and there was a row of various Nanmu boxes on it, and the boxes were dazzling with various gems.
None of these gems have been carved, and it is estimated that rubies are the main ones used for head jewelry.
There were also boxes piled up to the brim, and I don't know where my mother got the good things, apparently preparing a dowry for her.
Shen Yuzhu's heart paused slightly, and the courage she had mustered up before was slightly lost.
In fact, Lu Ying is just her stepmother, there is no need to be so good to her, if she doesn't appreciate it, it would be too much
