Chapter 233: Why Do You Hide It from Your Family?
As soon as she said this, Sun Shande and Wen glanced at each other.
Wen was a little puzzled: "But, didn't you ask this little lady Gu's mother?" Marriage events, aren't they all the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders? Just asked her what she thought of Brother Cheng'er, and she couldn't just give this family affair, right? You have to find a serious matchmaker first, right? ”
"It's okay!"
Sun remembered Xu's indifference to him, so he pursed his lips and waved his hand indifferently, "Baoying's mother Xu doesn't care about things at all, and Baoying makes decisions about her family's affairs!" Bao Ying's two brothers are going to participate in the scientific examination, as long as you promise her to give her some silver every year to supplement the two brothers' studies, I think she will definitely be willing to agree to this family business! ”
"What? Do you want to supplement her brother's study? When Wen heard this, he was a little unhappy, how could he marry a daughter-in-law and bring it with her mother's family?
"Sister-in-law, don't think I'm cheating on you, her two brothers are both good readers! What if I pass the exam...... No matter how bad a talent is, he will definitely be able to! When the time comes, won't you be able to follow suit? Sun leaned at Wen and said with a smile.
When Wen Shi heard this, his eyes lit up.
In the examination, Xiucai is already a great figure, and the major academies will compete to hire him, and he can also open a private school to teach.
"Good! I'll pack up and go with you to the Gu family to propose marriage! Wen immediately slapped his thigh and made a decision.
"No hurry!" Sun calmed down at this moment and began to say that he was not in a hurry, "First prepare the bride price for the proposal, I will go back today to prepare and prepare, and it will not be too late for you and the eldest brother to go over tomorrow!" ”
"Then I'll leave early in the morning with your eldest brother and go to your house!" Wen said happily.
In this regard, Sun Shande naturally has no opinion.
Sun told his eldest brother and sister-in-law what happened in the mourning hall on the first seven days of Jiangzhen a few days ago.
As soon as they heard that the Gu family had five hundred taels of silver, the husband and wife's eyes lit up, and when they heard that Gu Baoying actually took the silver to the county seat to buy a house, it was a pity.
But when I heard Sun say again, Gu Baoying's father had a very good relationship with the famous Jin Siye, and Jin Siye also helped, so the husband and wife were even more satisfied.
Jin Siye is a local snake, if he has a little relationship with him, the farm sells grain and vegetables, and it can also be wiped out.
After Sun finished talking to his brother and sister-in-law, he happily returned home, as if he had finally settled on his mind.
Wen discussed with his man what kind of bride price to give, and how much silver the family can come up with now.
From Qinghe Village to Sun's mother's house, you have to walk for more than an hour on the road.
By the time Sun returned home, it was already completely dark.
She didn't tell her family about it.
The main reason is that I am afraid of being opposed by my father-in-law.
After all, Bao Ying is the stepdaughter of the second uncle, and the second uncle regards her as his own child, even if he wants to choose a husband, he has to choose well, and her mother's family is just a farmer who farms, although her brother and sister-in-law help a large family take care of the farm, and they don't have to worry about food and clothing, but in the final analysis, they are also slaves for people, and they are not a good family.
If an ordinary crop marries a daughter, her mother's family is really a good family business, but this is Gu Baoying!
The former daughter of the Jiangnan family!
Even if you want to get married, you are at least a scholar!
The father-in-law thinks that the second uncle is good, so he may not be willing to let Baoying marry into her mother's family!
Even Jiang Xing didn't know her plans.
Jiang Xing is also devoted to the second uncle, as long as his father-in-law does not agree, Jiang Xing will not stand with him at all.
In that case, it would be better for her to get things done herself.
Now that the Gu family has no man who can be in charge, Gu Xian and Zhiyan are going to study and enter the office, and silver is indispensable to spend, what does Bao Ying say about copying books and embroidery, how much silver can be earned?
Although her medical skills are powerful, but as she gets older and older, can she continue to show up to treat people in the future?
If the patient is a man......
Even if she is willing to show others, people may not be willing to let her show it, so she must avoid suspicion!
In this way, where can she get so much silver in her hand for her two brothers to study for the imperial examination?
The road of the imperial examination, either depends on talent, or survives the year, or even survives to the end, at most it is just an old boy.
Bao Ying is young and ignorant now, and when she feels struggling in the future, will she be willing to continue to provide them with education?
Sun thinks it will definitely not!
But Bao Ying is a smart child, and if she talks to her about the stakes, she will definitely be able to figure it out.
She is not in a hurry to marry Bao Ying tomorrow.
Let my brother and sister-in-law come over with a generous marriage gift, let Baoying know the benefits of marrying, and then give her a period of consideration, she will definitely agree in the end!
It is also because of her determination that she dares to act like this.
On the second day, Sun got up early, cleaned the courtyard, tidied up the house, and waited for the arrival of his brother and sister-in-law.
Jiang Chao began to carry two buckets of water around the village to exercise from today, and got up early in the morning, Sun Yicheng thought it was fun, so he accompanied him.
When he got home, he was so tired that he collapsed on the bed, not wanting to move.
Fortunately, he was able to be lazy and make up for sleep today.
Just a moment later, Sun's brother and sister-in-law arrived at the house.
Sun Yicheng was very happy: "Dad! Mother! ”
"Brother Cheng!" Seeing the irrepressible joy on his son's face, Wen pulled him aside and whispered, "My mother came to propose marriage to that little lady of the Gu family today!" Mother asks you, do you really like her? Fancy her? ”
This made Sun Yicheng blush!
He didn't dare to raise his head, didn't dare to look at his mother's expression, only the voice floated out of his mouth: "...... But it's up to your father and mother to decide! ”
This is clearly very like, very liked!
"Good, good! Don't worry, my mother will propose marriage to your father today, and I have to give this family affair down! When Wen saw that his son liked it too, a smile bloomed on his face, and he was even more determined to win this family business, and suddenly felt that the silver he had prepared was not much, and he was even a little worried that it would not be enough!
Jiang Qin was very puzzled that they would come over suddenly, and thought that Sun Desheng and Wen were thinking about Brother Cheng and wanted to take Brother Cheng home: "...... Why did you come here today? I didn't say it in advance, let Ah Xing pick you up. ”
When Sun Shande and Wen heard this, they couldn't help but glance at each other.
Why does Jiang Qin mean that he doesn't know what they are doing at all?
Didn't the Sun family tell the people of the Jiang family?
Just as they were about to answer, Sun rushed ahead and replied for them: "It was yesterday that I would be at my mother's house, and my brother and sister-in-law thought that I hadn't visited you for a long time, and I was worried about it, so I just took advantage of the fact that there was no work in the farm today, and came to see my father and mother!" ”
After speaking, she also gave her brother and sister-in-law a look.
The two didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Sun's gourd, and they were puzzled.
Even if the Sun family wants to spare Gu Xiaoniang's mother to talk about this marriage, they have to talk to the Jiang family!
Why does my sister hide it from her family?
But the husband and wife still nodded and smiled: "That's the case, thinking that it's almost winter, I am concerned about you and your aunt's body bones are still tough!" ”
"It's all right! Don't worry! Jiang Qin was very happy, so he greeted the two.
Wen found an opportunity to get up and dragged Sun to a corner of the courtyard to speak: "What's the matter? We want to propose to the Gu family, did you tell your father-in-law? ”
