"Master, it's not a way to keep up like this, you have to give the outside world an explanation, right?"

In the eldest master's courtyard, Mrs. Xing said with a worried face: "Otherwise, the matchmaker will come to the door all day long, and the days will not be able to pass, and there will be gossip outside, which is not good for the eldest girl!" ”

"Then let's talk to the outside world, sir, I don't have the idea of marrying someone in the spring for the time being!"

The eldest man snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "If you dare to chew the root of your tongue, Lao Tzu wants him to look good!" ”

Mrs. Xing was frightened and said aggrievedly: "However, the old lady's side seems to have other views on the eldest girl's marriage!" ”

She is not as tough as the old man, she will not go back to the house if she doesn't go back, and she always has to go to the Rong Mansion every few days to ask the old lady for peace, but she can't get a good face.

For such a situation, Mrs. Xing has long been accustomed to it, and she forgets it and doesn't care about it later.

It's just that with the Spring Festival and the Bamboo Ceremony, a wave of door-to-door courtship was triggered, and the old lady was not very peaceful.

"Don't care what the old lady says, it's not her turn to point fingers at Yingchun's family affairs!"

Frowning, the eldest man said impatiently: "What a bunch of bastards, the fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl's body has not yet fully grown, isn't it fatal to marry at this time?" ”

Mrs. Xing was silent, although she didn't agree with the eldest master's statement in her heart, she didn't dare to snort.

"Forget it, don't mention these troubles at home in the future!"

waved his hand, and the eldest lord said angrily: "There is that difficult guy, you can push it directly to the master, and I will do it, see who dares to blow up the thorn in front of the master!" ”

Mrs. Xing responded with a smile, said a few more gossips, and then went back to the backyard to talk to the eldest girl about some things between women, and the eldest master would never be blindly involved.

At this time, Yingchun is already a big girl, she looks round and jade, quite standard, with a gentle breath all over her body, and the heroic spirit between her eyebrows is looming.

She is very anxious about her future, but she is full of yearning.

I just don't know, what kind of husband will the master choose for her?

Let's hope it doesn't get too bad!

……

On the other end, Rongfu Rongqing Hall, today Jia Mu came here with distinguished guests.

The concubine of Nan'an County, the old concubine of the same era as Jia's mother, has a stronger identity and status than Jia's mother, and is regarded as an old acquaintance of the same class.

The founding of the four kings and eight princes, the identity of the four kings is special, and they all hold military power, and their strength and heritage are much stronger than the eight princes' family, and there are even specific places to garrison, which is actually similar to fiefdoms.

During the period of the two princes of the Jia family, the strength was even stronger than the separate Wang family with different surnames, but unfortunately such strength could not be hereditary, and in the period of the second generation of Rongguo Gong Jia Daishan, although the momentum of the union of the two mansions of Ning Rong was still not small, and even the strength of the two mansions reached its peak, but at this time, the gap between the four kings with different surnames gradually began to widen, which is the benefit of having a hereditary fief.

For example, the king of Nan'an County has 100,000 soldiers in his hands, which is only the number of people and horses allowed by the imperial court, and the number of people and horses recruited in private is even more, but it is a real private soldier who is not recognized by the imperial court.

The king of Nan'an and his army were stationed in southern Xinjiang, relying on the national border and several ports to do smuggling business with foreign countries, and their lives were very prosperous.

This generation of Nan'an County Kings stationed in southern Xinjiang is the third generation, and his ability to command troops can only be said to be mediocre, but his ability to drill camps is good, at least he is comfortable with the servants today, and the suppression of the Nan'an County King is not very serious.

The old lady of Nan'an, who is the mother of this generation of the king of Nan'an County, came to visit the Rong Mansion this time, just to welcome the marriage of the Spring Festival, and the Nan'an County Mansion intends to marry the eldest lord.

The eldest lord is not an ordinary person, he has been in charge of the Ministry of Industry for three years, and has made a yamen with the lowest ranking of six departments into the most lively yamen at the moment, which has attracted the attention of the entire court.

At present, the Ministry of Industry is strong and has sufficient funds, and it is completely possible to leave the Ministry of Industry and work alone, which is an enviable and powerful yamen, and the call for the eldest master to enter the cabinet has also risen.

The king of Nan'an needs allies, especially those who have the right to speak in the court.

Otherwise, after a long time, some people will keep saying bad things about him in today's ears, and no matter how good the impression is, it will be dim, and in the end I don't know how much change it will cause.

The eldest lord is a very good alliance object, especially the eldest lord is also the representative of the noble forces, and he belongs to the same class as the Nan'an County Palace, so there is no need to worry about problems when united.

It's just that the Nan'an County Royal Mansion invited the matchmaker to go to the eldest lord's other courtyard to try it, but the result was not satisfactory, and the eldest lord did not agree at all.

The Nan'an County Mansion will naturally not give up easily, this is not the way of the old man, so he simply takes the old lady's way.

What kind of temperament does the old lady have, the old lady Nan'an is very familiar with, especially the desire to control is also terrifyingly strong, as long as a little means can easily achieve the goal.

As for the relationship with the eldest lord in the future, as long as you marry Yingchun into the door, it will be very easy to ease the relationship in the future and even achieve the goal of forming an alliance.

For the sake of the future of the Nan'an County Palace, the old lady who had not been in the face for a long time came out this time, and came directly to Rongguo Mansion to talk to the old lady about it.

The old lady of Nan'an Wangfu suddenly came to the door, which surprised and delighted the old lady.

She is such a personality, she likes to be lively and loves face, and the old lady personally came to the door to show enough sincerity, and she was naturally so happy that she couldn't keep her mouth shut.

When the old lady learned about the old lady Nan'an's intention, she was even happier.

Being able to marry the Nan'an County Palace, which has hundreds of thousands of military power, is naturally a good thing in her opinion.

Although the Rongguo Mansion now has the support of the eldest lord, the alienated attitude of the eldest lord is very obvious, which makes the mansion obviously have a strong Ministry of Works, but the momentum is not very huge, at most it is equivalent to the end of the second-rate family in the capital.

Such a situation, the old lady is naturally difficult to accept, she hopes that Rongguo Mansion will return to the heyday of her hands, but unfortunately the eldest lord is not in harmony, which makes her angry enough and helpless.

What annoys her the most is that the second child has also performed well in the past three years, and he has made further progress in his career, but his dependence on her has also decreased significantly, which makes the old lady even more dissatisfied.

At present, there is an opportunity to form an alliance with the Nan'an County Palace, and it is still in her hands that the old lady feels that her status in the palace will be restored and reach a higher level.

Therefore, she didn't even think about it, and she didn't think about why the old lady Nan'an was looking for her, instead of going directly to the eldest master to talk about it.

After all, Yingchun is the eldest lord's daughter, even if she has to follow the rules of 'the words of the matchmaker of the parents', it is not the turn of the old lady to call the shots.

The old lady of Nan'an left with a happy face, and she didn't give the old lady a chance to regret it at all.

"Mandarin duck, go and call the phoenix girl!"

The old lady didn't doubt it, and she was in a pretty good mood and directly ordered the henchmen around her, she wanted to talk to Wang Xifeng.

She is not stupid, she naturally knows that it is not easy to communicate with the eldest master, so let's start with Wang Xifeng, I believe Feng Lazi will agree.

As long as it is said that Feng Lazi is moved, Lian Er will not be a problem!

With the support of Lian Er and Feng Lazi, and then negotiate with the eldest master, the possibility of success is greatly increased, not to mention that it is the prince of Nan'an County who is married to Yingchun, which is a pretty good family business.

"The old lady is so anxious to ask her granddaughter-in-law to come over, what important things do you have to order?"

Wang Xifeng entered the door with a smile, and after saluting the old lady, he couldn't wait to ask, "Is there anything good about this?" ”

"A good thing, a good thing!"

The old lady smiled and said, "Just now, the old lady of the Nan'an County Mansion came over, she wanted to ask the mansion to marry Yingchun, how is this not a good thing?" ”

Wang Xifeng's face stiffened, and he said dryly: "But the marriage of the Spring Festival should be decided by the eldest master, right?" ”

She really felt that this marriage was good, and if she and Lian Er became it, they could get a lot of benefits, but the key was that she couldn't figure out the attitude of the eldest master, so she didn't dare to answer indiscriminately.

In the past three years, the power of the eldest lord has become increasingly powerful, and even her fiery temperament is a little afraid to offend indiscriminately, not to mention that Lian Er's future has to count on the eldest master.

and the sister-in-law Jia Zhuo, who has just given birth, and the eldest daughter, Sister Qiao, all need the care of the eldest master, otherwise just by the name of their husband and wife, who cares in the capital?

"The old woman's words, do you dare not listen to the boss?"

The old lady looked confident, although the number of times the eldest lord returned to the house in the past three years was only a handful, but basically the eldest lord did not shirk much about what she ordered.

Although she knew that the eldest master was not easy to convince, she was still full of confidence.

"Then, would it be good to ask the eldest master's consent first?"

Wang Xifeng's lips trembled, and he simply followed the old lady's words and said, "Otherwise, if something goes wrong, it will not be good for the house or for the Spring Festival!" ”

"Okay, how can a little girl in Yingchun know, I want to know Feng Lazi's mind now, do you want to be optimistic about this marriage?"

The old lady doesn't care about so much, she has to force Feng Lazi to express her position now, and then take Lian Er down, and finally talk to the eldest master.

"This ......"

Wang Xifeng was a little at a loss for a while, and then he knew that the old lady was waiting here, but he couldn't help but answer, so he could only stubbornly say: "According to me, the Nan'an County Mansion is indeed a good marriage partner!" ”

"You think so too!"

The old lady clapped her hands and laughed; "I knew you would agree to such a good thing!"

Wang Xifeng opened her mouth and continued to speak, but she felt that it was not very proper in her heart, it was said that such a thing was really quite good, but how did she feel that something was missing, something was wrong.

It's just that the old lady won't give her a chance to regret at all, and after forcing Wang Xifeng's words, the old lady sent her out to prepare, and at the same time, through Mandarin Ducks and other maids, the matter quickly spread throughout the Rong Mansion and beyond.

Wang Shizi of Nan'an County, wants to marry the eldest girl of Yingchun!

For a while, the entire Rong Mansion spread such news, and both the master and the subordinate mother-in-law expressed extreme optimism about this matter.

Syllable!

In the main hall of the second room, Mrs. Wang slammed the tea cup in her hand on the ground, her face full of iron and anger: "My son Yuanchun is still suffering in the palace, and Yingchun still wants to get married, don't think about it!" ”
