How do I talk to my mother? How to fight for your lifelong happiness?

Thousands of thoughts flashed through my mind.

smiled and said to Mrs. Wu: "Mother, what can I do?" It's just that the eighth sister said something about her family's troubles today. ”

"The troubles of the Zeng family?" Mrs. Wu wondered.

Zeng's door style, she still understands, although the old lady is gone, but the family has always been harmonious, never heard of anything insulting, the eldest daughter-in-law of the second room of the Zeng family she has also seen a few times, the most amiable a young grandmother, when the eighth mother mentions it on weekdays, the eldest sister-in-law is also full of praise, and there are some sisters-in-law who are close to the mother.

Could it be that the third or fifth room after the funeral came back? How many houses are there unpleasant? But even if it is, with Xiaoba's delicate and transparent temperament, it is impossible to take out the dirty things in the family and tell outsiders, even if Sanniang is close to her, she will not say these words.

"What can the Zeng family do that is worth worrying about as a villain?" Mrs. Wu followed up with another sentence.

Sanniang pretended not to care and smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just her brother's family business, because she wants to keep filial piety, she has to wait for two years, Banniang's mother means that she wants to help his fifth brother pay attention to it first, and when her fifth brother is not served, she will give the family matter." can listen to Banniang said that there were many people who took a fancy to Zeng Wulang before, but Zeng Wulang himself was not happy. This time, Mrs. Zeng personally called Zeng Wulang to question, and said that if she fell in love with a young lady, as long as the woman had a good character, her family background or something, she didn't care. But Sogoro still didn't let go. The mother and son are a little unpleasant. ”

"That Zeng Wulang, he is born with a good appearance and talent, their family really talks about disciples, then the Li family will not talk about it, it is Lu Hanlin's family, in fact, it is not easy to compare. Although I was poorer in the past, there was an old saying that don't bully young people, the Zeng family is looking for a few children, which one is not the dragon and phoenix among people? Besides, in the past few years, the Zeng family has had a Baniang, and life has been getting better and better. From this point of view, in the future, our family will be the richest man in Nanfeng City, and we may not be able to let Xian. The eyes of the world are open, so Zeng Jiaerlang is indeed popular, but if he is reliable, or thinks he can be worthy, can he not move his mind? Who has a daughter and doesn't want to find a good son-in-law? If you don't just want to open a department, the son-in-law who grabbed the list before the list can go crazy? As Mrs. Wu was talking, she saw that Wu Sanniang's face was a little red and suspicious, but she was puzzled.

Inevitably, the conversation stopped.

Seeing that Wu Sanniang didn't find that she had stopped talking, Mrs. Wu's heart jumped, and she said secretly: "Could it be that the Zeng family Wulang is actually her own daughter?" ”

In the past, Mrs. Wu never wanted her daughter and the sons of the Zeng family to go together, one is that they are merchants, and the Zeng family is a scholarly family. Although the status of businessmen is far higher than that of the previous dynasty, as long as they can afford the dowry, there are many wealthy families, and even the royal family and nobles marry the daughters of merchants, but she has never thought that the son of the Nazeng family will be the son-in-law of her own family.

Mrs. Wu was born in a merchant family, and her mother's family has been in business for several generations, and she is the most practical. If his daughter could marry, he might have thought of some way, but now he wants to recruit a son-in-law, which is completely impossible.

If the Zeng family really let their son be the son-in-law of a merchant family, with the current reputation of the Zeng family, I am afraid that not only Nanfeng City, but also spread out, probably everyone in the world will poke the backbone of the Zeng family.

Wu Sanniang saw that Mrs. Wu was silent at this time, so she lowered her head and called "Mother" in a low voice.

Listening to this "mother" with some pleading, Mrs. Wu's heart was already clear.

It seems that it is the handsome Gorou of the Zeng family, who has no intention of his daughter, and his daughter's thoughts are only afraid that it is also on the young man.

I couldn't help but sigh. asked Wu Sanniang again: "You mean that Second Lady Zeng said it herself, and she doesn't care about the woman's disciple?" ”

When Wu Sanniang saw her mother ask this, she was overjoyed, so she looked up, and felt that she was out of shape, took a breath, calmed her heart, and then said softly: "My daughter just listened to what the eighth sister said." However, the Zeng family's business is not our family's business. Mother has eaten, and the hour is not early, so let's rest early. ”

Mrs. Wu glanced sharply at the daughter she was holding in the palm of her hand, Wu Sanniang had never seen her mother look at herself with such eyes, and secretly thought, could it be that the meaning of what her mother asked just now was that she had misunderstood? couldn't help but feel at the bottom of her heart, but in this case, she could only try to reveal something she meant to her mother, but she couldn't say it explicitly.

Fortunately, Mrs. Wu glanced at her, then collected the sharpness in her eyes, and said with a smile: "You should rest earlier, your father has been busy outside a lot in the past two days, and I will wait for him to talk today." ”

Wu Sanniang breathed a sigh of relief. Although she couldn't guess what her mother meant, she couldn't ask any more questions, so she took her leave.

Mrs. Wu walked to the window and looked at her daughter's distant figure under the shadow of the lamp, and couldn't help sighing.

Such an outstanding and intelligent daughter, not to mention Nanfeng City, even if she is placed in the entire Great Song Kingdom, she may not be worse than any young lady. If it weren't for the fact that she didn't have a son and was unwilling to succeed, wouldn't such a daughter be chosen by thousands of families? How can it be delayed until the age of seventeen, and even the in-laws have not been decided? There was something like the Li family before his death.

Maybe it's really my fault?

But the marriage with the Zeng family is indeed unrealistic.

"Madam," the martial woman who was guarding beside her called softly, "Madame, let's sit down and rest." ”

"Wu Niangzi, did you say I was wrong?"

Wu Pozi was stunned for a moment, and already understood what Mrs. said, so she persuaded: "There are some things, if it weren't for Mrs. to suppress them, I don't know what the family would be like now." What's wrong with Madame? Madame doesn't have to worry, Miss is so good, God will pity her, and she will find a good family in the future. Maybe it's just that fate hasn't arrived. ”

Although Mrs. Wu knew that this was a comforting word, after listening to it, she still felt more comfortable in her heart, so she asked Mrs. Wu to call a maid to serve her to wash.

As soon as she was done, she sent everyone out, and Mrs. Wu gave everyone a look, and quietly withdrew from the inner room, and Mrs. Wu sat alone and remembered her thoughts.

If it weren't for recruiting a son-in-law, then Zeng Jia Goro was indeed a rare talent. It's rare that the daughter has affection for that Sogoro again......

Just thinking about it, I heard the maid say outside: "Madam, the master is back." ”

Mrs. Wu hurriedly threw away her thoughts and went out.

"Why did the master come back so early today?"

Mrs. Wu helped take off her coat, and asked the maids to bring hot water, and served Mr. Wu to wash his face, Mr. Wu wiped the water on his face, threw away the towel, and said with a smile: "Do you know how much profit we have made in the three seasons of this year?" ”

Just looking at him like this, he knew that this year's income was a very considerable number, if it was usual, Mrs. Wu must have asked happily: "How many are there?" ”

But Mrs. Wu said this time: "No matter how much money you fight, you don't even have a son who can support the door, what's the use?" Take pity on my Sanniang. ”

Only then did Master Wu realize that his wife's face was not good, and he said such dejected words again, and hurriedly said: "But those rooms are angry with you again?" ”

Mrs. Wu said: "They can also make me angry? ”

It's not those rooms, but what's it for? Before I was about to ask, I heard Mrs. Wu say thoughtfully: "Master, you say, if we can marry the Zeng family, is it also a good family affair?" ”

Master Wu didn't come back to his senses for a while, and only stared at Mrs. Wu.

I saw Mrs. Wu sighing: "What do you mean by asking you, but I also say it." ”

This time, Master Wu felt that he had just heard the words of marrying the Zeng family, and it turned out that it was really his own wife who said it, so he couldn't help frowning and said, "This is also something that can be thought?" What kind of family in the Zeng family would call their son to be a son-in-law to others? Don't talk about it outside, you don't have to make people laugh at our family's inadequacy. ”

Takeo sneered, "Didn't I just tell you? ”

When she started talking, Mrs. Wu really had this thought, so she pulled Master Wu to sit down and said, "Is there really no way?" I look at it today, our Sanniang seems to be a little unusual to the Zeng family Goro. And now I listen to Xiaoba's child, and the Tao is that Zeng Wulang refuses to talk about family affairs now, but he is angry with the second Mrs. Zeng. Listening to Xiaoba, her fifth brother may also have a crush on a young lady of which family. I wondered, could it be our family's Sanniang? If it weren't for the fact that the second lady had made it clear that she didn't care about the woman's family background, as long as the person was good, why didn't Gorou open his mouth? ”

Master Wu said strangely: "Their family is now guarding filial piety, how can they mention the matter of kissing?" ”

Mrs. Wu smiled and said: "Look, the old man is also a smart man, and he has been confused for a while, and he has to obey before he can discuss his marriage, but he can't ignore it at this time, right?" When the time comes, if you look for a daughter-in-law, you won't be black-eyed. Which family has to go from marriage to marriage to marriage, and it doesn't cost those things? If two surnames get married, is it a matter of three or two sentences? The Zeng family is looking at it now, isn't it just asking for caution? ”

Master Wu thought about it too.

smiled and said, "You mean, the five boys of the Zeng family have fallen in love with our family's Sanniang?" This kid has some vision. In our Nanfeng City, which other girl is more capable than our Sanniang? ”

The words may not be the truth, but he is proud at this time, and Mrs. Wu really doesn't know what to say when she is choked, so she only sneers: "I'm discussing with you." You say these cheeky words. It's true, is the Zeng family willing to let Gorou come to our store? You'd really like to. ”

Master Wu said in his heart, where is this what I think, is it clearly what you think, just this, people who have been afraid of their wives all their lives dare not say it.

frowned and thought about it, and said to himself: "To say, although there are some differences between our two families, it is not completely impossible to really discuss marriage." ”

When Mrs. Wu heard this, she was overjoyed, and secretly thought that she was going to be strong for a lifetime, and sure enough, there were some things, and the man still had an idea, so she hurriedly asked, "What do you have in mind?" If there really is, hurry up and talk to the concubine, if you want to say that Zeng Jiagolang, it is really a rare talent. If this is really done, I will go to the temple to burn more incense, donate more oil money, and thank God for merciding with our Sanniang. ”

When Master Wu heard that she even claimed to be a concubine, he couldn't help laughing: "There is a way, but the lady may not be willing." ”

"For the sake of our daughter's happiness, what more could I not want? Let's talk about it, sir. ”

"Unless we are willing to marry our daughter to the Zeng family, if you still want to recruit Zeng Wulang to our family as a son-in-law, then stop this idea as soon as possible."

"Marry your daughter, then our family ......," Mrs. Wu exclaimed.

"What else?" Master Wu sighed.

was mentioned by Mrs. Wu like this, he did think that the Zeng family's son-in-law was a rare candidate for a son-in-law, but it was obvious that the son of the Zeng family would not go to a merchant's house to be a door-to-door son-in-law, let alone a family like the Zeng family, even if he had a good family background, he couldn't. According to what Mrs. said, his daughter is interested in Zeng Wulang, he loves his daughter, and what he hopes most is that his daughter can be happy, if there is hope for this family business, the only way is to marry his daughter to the Zeng family and be the daughter-in-law of others.

"Are we really going to have to come back with an heir?" As soon as Mrs. Wu thought of those people in the Wu family's few rooms, she was unwilling to do so. "How many rooms are cheap?"

Over the years, those few rooms have been tossed a lot, staring at their own ideas and property all day long, what means have not been used?

Master Wu sneered: "I'm dead, and the family's money doesn't have their share, so how much do I usually don't give enough?" Who is sincere to us again? You can rest assured. No. ”

"That ......"

"In the past few days, you have found a reason to go to Zeng's house to find out the voice. In the end, we are Xiao Banniang's godfather and godmother, if you go, it's nothing. If the Zeng family is also willing, let's marry Sanniang, but we also have a condition, if Sanniang and Zeng Wulang have a child in the future, we don't want the eldest son, if there is a second child, we will inherit our family, have a grandson, and inherit the family business? ”

"But in the end, it is from a foreign family, and there is always something to say in the clan, and this is not easy."

When Master Wu heard this, he continued to sneer: "If it's a foreign surname, it's also the grandson of you and my in-laws, and it's the child of our Sanniang, you can rest assured, I will find a way to do these things." Just do what I want. ”

Mrs. Wu was relieved. The old couple discussed it again, and each slept without mentioning it.

The next day, Mr. Wu went out early in the morning because of the quarterly inventory, Mrs. Wu and Wu Sanniang had breakfast together, and after eating, Mrs. Wu said: "I have to go to Zeng's house these days, and I went back to the funeral of Zeng's family, but I went to the door, and I didn't have a good time talking to a few ladies of the Zeng family, and I just should go to see it, you used to go to Zeng's house, and the people in their family are more familiar than me. ”

Wu Sanniang listened, her heart was ecstatic, since her mother said so, that is, she wanted to marry the Zeng family, and she must be going to explore the wind, although she wanted to force it, but her face was still happy, and she didn't know what Mrs. Wu's idea was, but it was not easy to ask.

Mrs. Wu nodded her forehead, and pretended to be angry: "The real children are all debt collectors, but fortunately only you were born, otherwise, wouldn't you be sick with me and your father?" ”

Wu Sanniang hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on Mrs. Wu's lap, and said, "Mother, it's all because your daughter is not filial that you and your father are worried." ”

Mrs. Wu sighed: "If you want to talk about filial piety, is there a more filial child in the world than you?" Don't worry, no matter what, your father and mother are always willing to do anything for you. ”

I wanted to tell Wu Sanniang about her and Master Wu's plans, and then I thought about it, these eight characters have not been skimmed, if it doesn't work, it will make the child sad, so he said: "I read the yellow calendar early this morning, and the day after tomorrow is a good day, you can go and help me see the gift now." ”

Wu Sanniang just went.

Early in the morning of the third day, sure enough, Mrs. Wu took her mother-in-law and her mother-in-law to load half a car of gifts for the three ladies and several young ladies of the Zeng family, and went to the door of the Zeng family.

As soon as Zhu heard that it was Mrs. Wu who came as a guest, because she had not handed over the post before, it was strange, Mrs. Wu rarely came from home, why did she come to be a guest so early in the morning today? Could it be something?

Busy let Wu go out, and when Wu welcomed people in, Zhu hurriedly let him sit. Mrs. Wu smiled: "I came here early in the morning to disturb me." ”

Zhu asked Wu to call the maid for tea, and said with a smile: "You are our little eight's godmother, you should come and go often, I hope you can come often, but you are in charge of that big family, how can you have leisure?" Our family is in filial piety again, and it is not good to invite you often, this time, it has been sparse to move around. ”

When Banniang heard that Mrs. Wu came to the house, she knew that what she had said to Wu Sanniang that day had worked. Thinking that Mrs. Wu can come, it seems that the fifth brother's family affairs are promising, and he is also very happy for Wu Sanniang and the fifth brother. Because she is her godmother, she must come to see the ceremony.

After Banniang saluted, Zhu smiled and said: "Your third aunt and fifth aunt, although they have met your godmother, they haven't spoken well yet, so please invite your two aunts to come over." ”

Because it was early in the morning, everyone had a meal, the third lady and the fifth lady went back to the room, and the eighth lady listened to Zhu's instructions, and went to invite people, and from time to time the third lady An and the fifth lady Xu, who were dressed in plain clothes, rushed over.

Speaking of which, An and Mrs. Wu are also familiar with each other, the two can chat, although the fifth lady Xu is not familiar with Mrs. Wu, but because she is the godmother of her niece, she will naturally not be rude because of the identity of the Wu family's merchant, and she is a delicate person, and she will talk about one place after a while.

The four ladies chatted for a while, An and Xu thought that Mrs. Wu must be looking for the second sister-in-law to talk to when she came here, they met, drank tea, and chatted for a long time, and they had fulfilled their courtesies, so they each found an excuse and avoided it.

Although Zhu also wondered what Mrs. Wu was doing this time, it was just that the guests didn't mention it, so she didn't take the initiative to ask.

So he pulled up the family routine.

While Mrs. Wu was talking, she was thinking about how to speak, and she heard Banniang smile and said: "Mother, godmother, my daughter has retired first, the fifth brother has been a little unhappy in the past two days, I will go to talk to him." ”

When Banniang went, Mrs. Wu asked with a smile: "Your family Wulang, but a rare child, not to mention the handsome man in life, is also a first-class good learner, just now Ba Mei'er said that he was unhappy, what's wrong?" ”

I took the opportunity to start talking.

When Zhu heard this, he smiled and said: "What's not happy, this child is good at everything, but he has a bad temper, no, several children in the family have decided to have family affairs, I think that in another two years, he will be careless when he is old, thinking about paying more attention to it recently, and also looking for family affairs, but this child is reluctant, saying that it will be said in a few years." Probably because I said a few more words that day, and asked Hachi to make a joke, so the brother and sister sulked. ”

Mrs. Wu smiled: "Isn't this child the debt of our parents?" I only have one daughter, Sanniang, which makes me very worried, not to mention that you have so many children. But you are also blessed, and the children in the family are excellent. There is no need to worry about family affairs. It's only my third mother, but it makes me sad, you know, we all have this one daughter, because I originally wanted to hire a son-in-law who came to the door, so the child's family affairs have been delayed until now. Now we have also figured out that the lifelong happiness of having no children is more important, no, I have also discussed with her father, as long as it is a good family, it is nothing to marry my daughter. In the end, her life is good, and the most important thing is that she is doing well. ”

When Zhu heard this, he was really shocked. The situation of the martial family, because of the exchanges between the two families, she is very clear.
