033: I want a girl
"Don't bother, I originally relied on this line of business to make money~" Xiao Jiu lay in front of the table, it was the first time he had seen a gold master who could be so gentle.
Thinking about the first two lists, Jiang Heng and Yun Jiaojiao who saw at the beginning were either icebergs difficult to melt, or their tempers exploded, in short, it was difficult to do at the beginning.
The third order was rare to meet someone who was easy to talk to, and Xiao Jiu instantly relaxed a lot.
"Now that Mr. Jiang already knows my identity and my purpose, let's open the skylight and say something!" Xiao Jiu blinked, "Ah Jiu wants to hear with his own ears what Grand Prince Jiang thinks about feelings and marriage." ”
"I ......" Jiang Guangsheng paused as he picked up the pastry, then put down the pastry, and replied softly: "As you can see, I am a cripple, and the girl followed me, which is ruined." ”
Just as Xiao Jiu guessed in his heart, even if Jiang Guangsheng is not inferior, he will be soft-hearted, just like Jia Baoyu in "Dream of Red Mansions", he treats women as if they were made of water, and needs to be carefully pampered, instead of letting women take care of him as a cripple, he wants to be like a normal man, he is the one who takes care of and loves a woman.
"Don't say that." Xiao Jiu sighed lightly, but he picked up a piece of pastry on a plate and stuffed it into his mouth, swallowed it slowly, and continued: "Think about it, love is a matter of two people, not a man alone. I know that you want to find a woman who is really willing to be with you, which means that you want to find a woman who really loves you! Then since she loves you, she will definitely not ask for too much, as long as you are good, you can be together. ”
She wasn't sure if Jiang Guangsheng had a favorite girl, but for the sake of this, she had to change the unconventional thoughts in his mind first. Let him face the emotional matters between men and women with confidence and enthusiasm.
Jiang Guangsheng listened carefully to Xiao Jiu's words, and even had a lot of understanding, and nodded.
Ever since he fell off a horse and broke his leg, he never thought that he would one day marry a wife and have children. His parents often advised him not to think like this, but their reasons were only towards themselves, and they never understood what they really thought, and what they said did not move him at all.
But what Xiao Jiu said was different, she told herself what love was, not just blindly praising herself, saying how cheap and ignorant the girl was.
He felt that Xiao Jiu understood himself.
"Also, if you feel that you can't give your future wife happiness, then you can work hard, you try your best to do a good job, and the people who love you will feel it and affirm you more!" Indeed, Xiao Jiu could understand some of his thoughts.
"Ah Jiu girl, what you said is so good." Jiang Guangsheng could hear it in his heart, and his expression was a little excited.
However, after a while, he lowered his eyes again and shook his head: "But, where can I meet such a girl now?" ”
has lived for twenty-three years, except for frequent contact with the maids in the house, women of the same age outside can be said to have no contact at all.
So, where can such a woman who can truly love him and help each other for life?
"Don't you invite me!" Xiao Jiu patted his chest and said confidently: "As long as you don't reject me and are willing to accept my arrangement, I will try my best to find a girl from a good family, not greedy for money or power, and then find a chance for you to get along, don't rush this matter, take your time, okay?" ”
In short, it's a blind date, although there seem to be few blind dates in ancient times, either it's free love, or it's a good match. But it doesn't matter, she has a lot of methods, as long as the end result is perfect.
After thinking about it for a long time, Jiang Guangsheng was willing to let go of the matter and promised Xiao Jiu.
......
persuaded Jiang Guangsheng, Xiao Jiu informed Master Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, and asked the second elder about the requirements of the young lady of the Jiang family.
What Master Jiang means is that following Jiang Guangsheng's heart, as long as Jiang Guangsheng likes it, and their parents believe in his vision, the girl he chose must be qualified to sit in the position of Jiang Da Shao and have the ability to spend his life with Jiang Guangsheng.
In this way, Xiao Jiu is much more relaxed, after all, the requirements are not high, and the gold owner's family is also easy to talk to.
Back home, Xiao Jiu began to flip through her notebook.
This is from some time ago, she was bored, deliberately asked around, ran errands in person, and learned most of the single men and women in Guqing Town, the basic residences, and ages, and then wrote them down in her own small notebook for future orders.
Guqing Town is so big, Xiao Jiu has only recorded the young lady and son in the mansion at present, and the single men and women of ordinary families have not yet started.
"Jiang Mansion is one of the three rich families in Guqing Town, and ordinary women probably can't look down on it, right? Even if there are no specific requirements, this basic requirement should be a young lady......" Xiao Jiu figured out his thoughts and said to himself.
"Meow~"
Xiao Bai Ling jumped onto the table, glanced at the small book in front of Xiao Jiu, and shouted.
seems to be refuting Xiao Jiu: "It's possible that people are not what you imagined~"
"What are you talking about, little one? I am not as smart as your former master, I understand the language of your cats, what do you say I don't understand! Xiao Jiu knocked on Xiao Bai Ling's head.
Xiao Bailing "meowed" again, as if mocking Xiao Jiu, and finally jumped off the table, too lazy to pay attention to her.
Xiao Jiu snorted, didn't care about Xiao Bailing, and continued to be busy with the work in hand.
"The third lady of the Gu family... Fifteen ......"
"Miss Fan Family... Sixteen ......"
"Miss Qian Family's Sixth... Sixteen ......"
While reading and chattering, it seems to be very suitable, but Xiao Jiu always feels too young.
Thinking about it, Jiang Guangsheng is already twenty-three, and he was considered a forty-year-old uncle in his previous life! If you want to find a woman who can understand him and take care of each other in life with him in the future, she will definitely need to increase her age a few years old.
These young ladies who have just reached the end of their lives must not be able to meet such a requirement mentally, Xiao Jiu thinks no.
"How can it be so difficult to find someone over seventeen......" Xiao Jiu was a little sad.
But then again, it doesn't matter if this ancient man marries late, but it really can't be a late marriage for an ancient woman. Generally, after the young lady in the house and the lady, she either married a man who had a marriage contract early, or was anxious to find a suitable son to marry.
In short, getting married cannot be delayed.
Therefore, the young lady who is over seventeen years old and has not yet married is not recorded in Xiao Jiu's small book.
"Forget it! Let's just talk about it, let's find a sixteen first! ”
*
After recalling for a night, she thought about it and chose it for a night, and finally, she took a fancy to Fan Ruyi, the fourth lady of the Fan family.
If you want to say that this Fan Mansion is actually a family with Jiang Mansion.
Jiang Qingyue, the second lady of Jiang Mansion, is Jiang Guangsheng's second sister, three years younger than Jiang Guangsheng, and married Fan Cai, the son of the Fan family, as the first young lady to marry Jiang Mansion four years ago.
Now that the family is happy, he and Fan Caicheng built another small house in the second year after they got married, and then they had a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and the four families lived happily ever after.
Master Fan and Mrs. Fan of the Fan Mansion are also very understanding when they hear it, and they are not the masters of thorns. Xiao Jiu wanted to try it to see how the fourth young lady of the Fan family behaved, and whether she could let the Jiang Fan family kiss each other again.
......
On the second day, Xiao Jiu did not go to Fanfu, but asked someone from Jiang Mansion to lead the way, and first found Jiang Qingyue.
Jiang Qingyue heard that Xiao Jiu was the matchmaker invited by the Jiang Mansion to say goodbye to her eldest brother, and immediately gave her a warm reception, and it could be seen that she, as a younger sister, was very concerned about her brother's marriage.
"Girl, please have tea." Jiang Qingyue's wedding maid Hongran served tea.
Xiao Jiu casually glanced at Hongran and found that this maid was quite delicate.
Later, Jiang Qingyue asked, "I don't know if Jiu Niang has a suitable candidate in her heart?" ”
"Since there is a suitable candidate, I took the liberty to come to find the young lady today." Xiao Jiu went directly to the topic and informed Jiang Qingyue of what he planned in his heart, "I heard that the fourth lady of the Fan Mansion just got married last year, and now she hasn't gotten married, so the young lady should know what Jiu Niang wants to say next, right?" ”
"Ruyi ......" Jiang Qingyue naturally knew what Xiao Jiu meant, thought about it, and replied with some embarrassment: "Ruyi is indeed sixteen years old and not married, but Ruyi's personality is too introverted, I'm worried... In terms of communication, she is not very suitable for her eldest brother......"
"Introverted personality doesn't like to talk, that's because I haven't met someone who has fallen in love, and once I meet another person who has fallen in love, I must have endless things to say." Xiao Jiu finally took a fancy to Fan Ruyi, how could he do it if he didn't try.
"What does Jiuniang mean by going to propose to Ruyi for the eldest brother?"
"No, let's not mention the kiss first, it's too hasty to mention the kiss, Jiu Niang's idea is that the young lady, as Miss Fan's sister-in-law, can she pick a time to invite her to come two days later, and then Jiu Niang will feel what kind of woman Miss Fourth is, and see if she can let her try it with Jiang Dagongzi." Xiao Jiu said carefully, "What does the young lady think? ”
"Hmm......" For Jiang Guangsheng's marriage, Jiang Qingyue certainly hopes to solve it as soon as possible, "Okay, then tomorrow I will send someone to invite my sisters-in-law to the house to play, and then Jiu Niang can pay more attention to Ruyi." ”
Jiang Qingyue is quite smart and knows how to hide people's eyes and ears, so please come to all the young ladies in the Fan Mansion.
Xiao Jiu thinks it's okay to sit back and wait for tomorrow.
*
Jiang Qingyue informed Fan Cai of this matter, and Fan Cai was 100% supportive, and sent someone to Fan's Mansion to inform him that night. Early the next morning, the ladies of Fan's Mansion came to the couple's house to play.
Xiao Jiu naturally couldn't miss it, as soon as he stepped into the backyard, a little girl fell to his heels.
This is the youngest Miss Nine in Fan Mansion.
Looking up, there was a backyard, and there were a total of six young ladies.
The biggest is the fourth miss Fan Ruyi, and most of the rest are not yet in time, and the eighth miss and the ninth miss will be three or four years old.
Xiao Jiu slapped his forehead and sighed helplessly, his heart said that it was difficult to do this business.
No way, she has been afraid to get along with children since she was a child, especially the kind of kindergarten children, she feels that children are the devil in the world, and they can kill people!
"I'm sorry Jiuniang."
Jiang Qingyue personally took people out to buy things to entertain these girls, and before she came back, she asked Hongran to take a good look at them.
Hongran picked up Miss Jiu, and then gently pointed to the quietest woman sitting on the swing, "Jiuniang, that is Miss Fan Si." ”
Xiao Jiu raised his eyes and saw that Fan Ruyi was sitting on the swing, quietly watching the other ladies frolicking and messing around.
She leans on the swing alone, under the reflection of the sun, her complexion is as crystal as jade, like flowers and trees piling up snow, her demeanor is quiet and leisurely, and she is tender and outstanding.
"Then it's troublesome for Miss Hongran to take care of it here, and Jiuniang will go first."
"Okay Jiuniang."
Subsequently, Xiao Jiuniang walked towards Fan Ruyi.
Gently shaking the swing, Fan Ruyi was stunned and turned his head to look at Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu took the initiative to talk: "Why doesn't the fourth lady play with the other young ladies?" ”
Thinking that it was a subordinate in this house, Fan Ruyi didn't pay much attention to it, turned his head and whispered back: "I don't know how to play those." ”
I heard that Fan Ruyi is quiet and weak when she beats her mother's womb, she has not been close to her peers since she was a child, and she can count the words she can say in a day.
Xiao Jiu said again: "If you don't know how to play, you can learn, isn't the fourth lady excited to see them playing so happily?" ”
Xiao Jiu could feel Fan Ruyi's introversion, and it was indeed difficult to communicate.
As expected, after Xiao Jiu finished speaking, Fan Ruyi shook his head.
Stopping the swing, Xiao Jiu carefully pulled Fan Ruyi's wrist and tried to let her integrate into the group.
But Fan Ruyi didn't have the slightest interest, and withdrew his hand, "You go and play with other young ladies, I don't need it here." ”
"I'm not a maid here." Xiao Jiu opened his mouth and lied about his identity, "I'm your sister-in-law's friend." ”
Fan Ruyi did not respond, and it seemed that it had nothing to do with her.
"Those young ladies are having so much fun, I noticed that you are sitting here alone, Fourth Miss, so I came to take a look and wanted to talk to you." Xiao Jiu had a harmless smile on his face, trying to say a few more words to Fan Ruyi.
"Well, I'm sorry, I don't talk to people." Fan Ruyi directly refused.
Xiao Jiu persevered, squatted in front of Fan Ruyi, and continued with a smile: "It's okay, I'll ask you to answer, and you can talk slowly." ”
Fan Ruyi tilted his head, really didn't want to pay attention to Xiao Jiu.
Xiao Jiu really sighed in his heart, thinking about this Miss Fan Si, who was introverted like an autistic child.
Just when she was worried about how to pry Fan Ruyi's mouth open, fortunately, Jiang Qingyue came back.
"Ladies and gentlemen, come on, sister-in-law bought delicious pastries, let's go to the side hall to eat delicious food!" Jiang Qingyue beckoned to everyone, and at the same time gave Xiao Jiu a look.
Xiao Jiu understood, stood up and pulled Fan Ruyi up regardless of it, "Let's go, Fourth Miss!" Let's go eat! ”
......
When I came to the side hall, the other five ladies were all happily competing for pastries, but only the special Fan Ruyi sat aside without interest and looked at them.
Xiao Jiu twitched the corners of his mouth, he didn't believe how introverted this Fan Ruyi was when he heard Jiang Qingyue say before, but now that he saw it, he wondered if this girl really had autism.
Jiang Qingyue saw Xiao Jiu's embarrassment, stepped forward and whispered a few words in her ear: "Look, I said that my father-in-law's four younger sisters are very introverted, and it is not easy for acquaintances to talk to her, and it will definitely be more difficult for my eldest brother to communicate with her." ”
Xiao Jiu pursed his lips, pulled Jiang Qingyue aside, and asked, "Then do you know why this Fan Ruyi is so introverted?" Isn't there something ...... about it?"
Jiang Qingyue knew what Xiao Jiu wanted to say, and shook her head, "I heard my father-in-law say that the people of the Fan family took her to see the doctor when she was a child, but the doctor said that this is because of everyone's temperament, not because of illness." ”
Xiao Jiu sighed, no matter what, even if it is autism, it can't be detected in ancient times.
"Sister-in-law, eat pastries, eat pastries~"
Miss Fan Ba and Miss Nine came over with pastries to make trouble.
Jiang Qingyue patted Xiao Jiu's shoulder, "Ah Jiu girl, why don't you try again, I'll take care of these girls first." "Then, take Miss Eight and Miss Nine away.
Xiao Jiu puffed out his mouth, and now Jiang Qingyue couldn't pull away, looked around, and called Hongran again.
"Miss Hongran, do you know if these four young ladies have anything they like? It's a daily preference. ”
Hongran thought for a while, "The slave remembers that the fourth lady seems to like to collect embroidery, and she embroiders in the house by herself when she has nothing to do on weekdays. ”
"Embroidered ......"
"Jiu Niang..."Suddenly, Hong Ran's expression changed, and her tone was a little heavy, "Hong Ran took the liberty to say, in fact, Hong Ran doesn't think that Miss Fan Si is as compatible as my eldest son!" ”
"Ah......?" Xiao Jiu never thought that Hong Ran would say this, and listening to her tone, it seemed that she was more rigorous than Jiang Qingyue.
"Let's talk about this, now it's not a slow pick, if not, I'll see if there are any other suitable women." Xiao Jiu is not sure now, she didn't want to be in a hurry about emotional marriage.
"Hmm... Please Jiu Niang, my eldest son is a good person, I hope Jiu Niang can really find a girl to accompany and take care of the eldest son! The more she spoke, the more excited she became.
Xiao Jiu was stunned, she always felt that there was something in this red word, which made her confused for a while.
But for now, she could only say yes for the time being, "Don't worry, I will." ”
*
In the evening, the carriage from Fanfu came to pick up the young ladies.
At the end of the day, Xiao Jiu had nothing to gain, and after only saying two or three polite words to Fan Ruyi in the backyard, there was no in-depth communication.
It made her feel tired for a while.
Jiang Qingyue could see it and comforted Xiao Jiu: "Jiu Niang, don't you change to a girl, Ruyi's character, don't say that if you come into contact with my eldest brother, even if it is other men, it will be difficult to get along." ”
"Yes, I see." Xiao Jiu nodded.
"Madam, ten days will be the twenty-third birthday of the eldest son." Hongran on the side reminded.
"Birthday ......"
Jiang Qingyue sighed, "It's a pity that the eldest brother has never been willing to hold a banquet." ”
When Xiao Jiu heard this, he suddenly thought of an idea, snapped his fingers and said: "It's better like this, young lady, you can talk to Master Jiang tomorrow, this time the eldest prince's birthday banquet will invite more young ladies from your family to come, and then the eldest prince, I will persuade you, how about it?" ”
When Xiao Jiu thought about it, he made a hundred flowers banquet and let Jiang Guangsheng choose it himself to see if there was a woman who fell in love at first sight.
Jiang Qingyue lowered her eyes and thought about it, although this method was a little difficult, but for the sake of Jiang Guangsheng's lifelong event, she was willing to cooperate with Xiao Jiu.
Hongran, who was on the side, listened to the words of the two, his eyes sank for a while, and he sighed lightly.
*
On the second day, according to what Xiao Jiu said, Jiang Qingyue returned to Jiang's house to discuss the matter with Master Jiang, and Master Jiang agreed very much and was willing to immediately release the invitation.
On Jiang Guangsheng's side, Xiao Jiu finally reluctantly forced him to agree.
Ten days later, the birthday banquet was soon coming.
On this day, most of the ladies of your mansion were invited to participate, but they didn't know that they were already Xiao Jiu's prey.
