Chapter 378: Choice
() Ran Yun'er's face was red, she just hung her head and said in a low voice, "I don't know." ”
There is a clear duplicity.
After finishing speaking, Ran Yun'er ran out.
In the evening, Ran Yun'er's shy and timid look had disappeared and was replaced by a depressed look.
Bai Zhi was curious, "Girl, what's going on?" Is the marriage not going through? ”
Jiang Ran glanced at Bai Zhi and motioned for Bai Zhi not to say more.
In fact, this was exactly what Jiang Ran expected.
The marriage contract pays attention to the right family, Ran Yun'er is just a merchant lady, and the Zeng family is a family of Jiangmen.
Not to mention how delicate the Zeng family's status in the court is now, let's just say that the Zeng family is in Jiyang, which is also a big family with the general status of the Divine Mansion.
Now that the Zeng family has come to propose marriage, Ran Jue will never be carried away and will not hesitate to agree.
Just as Jiang Ran said, Ran Jue thought about it again and again, and did not directly agree, but did not directly refuse.
In fact, Ran Jue is also in a dilemma.
Because the Zeng family came to propose, Mrs. Ran, Ran Jue and his wife had been discussing for a long time, but still no decision was made.
The entire Ran family had a strange aura.
At Ran Yun'er's age, she naturally knew the fate of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, but now that her father did not agree, she thought that there was no hope.
Jiang Ran didn't think so, as long as he didn't refuse, there was still room for a turnaround.
At dinner, Ran Yun'er only took two symbolic bites and withdrew.
Knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, Ran Jue looked at her daughter like that, and probably knew that her daughter had seen Major General Zeng.
Ran Jue was also very embarrassed in his heart, he couldn't make up his mind, and he kept sighing.
"Uncle, are you worried about Sister Yun's affairs?"
Ran Jue looked at Jiang Ran, "Ran Ran, what do you think should happen at this time?" ”
It stands to reason that Jiang Ran is also a woman who has not yet left the cabinet, and such a marriage is not her turn to be a junior.
But Jiang Ran's actions are becoming more and more like the head of the family.
Ran Jue didn't treat Jiang Ran as a junior many times, he didn't make a decision on this matter for a long time, and he wanted to hear Jiang Ran's opinion.
"Uncle, please move and speak."
Jiang Ran made a cup of tea for her uncle first, and then said, "Uncle, please drink tea." ”
After a cup of tea, Ran Jue had already stabilized her mind, and said tentatively, "If I remember correctly, Yun'er, this girl and that Young General Zeng had a two-sided relationship, Ran Ran, but what happened?" I looked at her and seemed to be very interested. ”
Jiang Ran laughed, "The Zeng family is very strict, and my sister is also well-behaved, what can I do?" Uncle was too worried. ”
Ran Jue was relieved.
But he was still sad, "Ranran, tell me what you think, how to choose this marriage?" ”
Jiang Ran said, "The Ran family is not an official in the court, and they don't have to worry about getting involved in court disputes, what my uncle is worried about is whether my sister will live well in the future?" Giving birth to a daughter still has to marry a neighbor, this is what parents expect to see the most, but uncle, Dong'er's cousin married into the Wang family, and it is also a good match, and he is still so worried, it can be seen that the things of life are really unpredictable, in this case, it is better to give this choice to my sister, I called her over, ask her personally, uncle listen to her thoughts, and then decide whether to agree to this marriage? How is it? ”
Ran Jue was very convinced of this niece, and he said, "Just according to your words." ”
Jiang Ran said, "Zisu, you went and invited Miss Yun over, just say, I have something to say to her." ”
Shiso is more secure.
Jiang Ran instructed her carefully, "When you see your cousin, just say that I have something to say to her about the Zeng family, and let her come over no matter what." ”
Then Jiang Ran moved a chair and invited Ran Jue behind the screen.
She waved Angelica away.
The two courtyards were very close to each other, but after a while, there was the sound of footsteps.
Jiang Ran went back to his place, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw Ran Yun'er walking in with a wilt, and his tone of voice was much weaker than usual.
Ran Yun'er said, "Sister, what are you looking for me?" ”
Jiang Ran waved his hand, and Zi Su went out with Ran Yun'er's personal girl, leaving only two people, "Sister, marriage is a lifelong matter, I want to tell you about the Zeng family, some things you don't know." ”
After all, she didn't want Ran Yun'er to marry in a daze.
There are some things that always have to be told in advance.
When Ran Yun'er heard the Zeng family, she had a complicated expression, and just hung her head, "I don't want to listen, what can I do?" ”
Jiang Ran pulled Ran Yun'er to sit down, "No matter what, I also want to talk to you, don't you want to know something about him?" ”
Ran Yun'er sat next to Jiang Ran in the end.
Jiang Ran said slowly, "Old lady Zeng was not yet forty years old when he died, and when the two uncles of Major General Zeng died, the eldest one was only in his early twenties. ”
Ran Yun'er was raised in the boudoir and had never heard of these things.
Her eyes widened.
Even Ran Jue sat behind the screen, and he was also slightly stunned, he had only heard of such a thing.
I only heard Jiang Ran continue, "Sister, the Zeng family does not have the merchantism and calculations of merchants like the Wang family, but the Zeng family is facing the conspiracy and trickery of the court, such a family, although there is no need to worry about the disputes in the backyard, but they may lose their lives at any time, are you willing to marry it?" ”
Ran Yun'er was stunned, she was stunned for a while, and then she said, her voice was low and firm, "I am willing, Mrs. Zeng is a heroine among women, she can do it, although I can't, I can learn." ”
After saying these words, her face was gloomy, "What if I want to or not, my father won't agree." ”
Jiang Ran said, "Mrs. Zeng once said that to be the daughter-in-law of the Zeng family, you don't need to knit female red, nor do you need piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, you only need a little, do you know what it is?" ”
Mrs. Zeng said this to Ran Yun'er, of course, she only said the first half of the sentence, Mrs. Zeng's original words were like this, "My daughter's family doesn't go to the top exam, what will she do with so many poems, as for this female celebrity, it's just a matter of knowing some, people like us, who still expects to make clothes by themselves?" ”
Jiang Ran just looked at Ran Yun'er fixedly.
"Yes, what is it?" Ran Yun'er raised her head and asked with a stammer.
Jiang Ran said word by word, and his voice was unusually clear, "When the men of the Zeng family die on the battlefield, this woman can support a family and raise the children to adulthood, which is the minimum requirement for being the daughter-in-law of the Zeng family." ”
This cold voice came into Ran Yun'er's ears little by little, stirring up ripples in her heart, Ran Yun'er's eyes turned red all of a sudden, she was still waiting to be married, and she had never left the cabinet, so she had to think about the scene of raising the child alone after her husband's death.
