As soon as Yan Yan heard that Ma was coming, although he was not very welcome in his heart, he also got up and complained to Mrs. Chen, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Chen, my mother-in-law is here, I have to go out to greet her." ”

"It's okay, I'll accompany you, it's just a matter of talent, and please ask the county lord...

"Mrs. Chen, don't worry, I understand, it's about Sister Chen's reputation, I won't go out and talk nonsense, I have suffered this kind of hardship myself." Yan Yan didn't wait for the other party to finish speaking, and hurriedly promised.

Because of this delay, when the two arrived at the door, Ma had already entered the courtyard, and when she saw Mrs. Chen, Ma was not surprised at all, because she saw the carriage of Jinyang Mansion in front of the shadow wall, not only that, but Ma also guessed the purpose of Mrs. Chen looking for Yan Yan.

Yan Yan didn't know, Ma knew that the reason why Mrs. Chen was in such a hurry to return to Beijing was for the family affairs of this pair of children, and the eldest princess of Jinyang didn't want her grandchildren to find a local family to marry, so she begged the queen mother and the emperor, so she found a suitable vacancy for her son.

After Mrs. Chen's family returned to Beijing, the eldest princess of Jinyang held two gatherings in Jinyang Mansion and invited all the marriageable men and women above the third grade in the capital, including Yan Tong.

Actually, at first, the Ma family was really worried about Yan Tong in the Chen family, in case Jinyang asked the emperor or the queen to ask for marriage, she was really hard to refuse, fortunately, Chen Cha was not young and was eager to get married, and Yan Tong was just fourteen years old, and he would have to marry next year at the earliest, and the Chen family obviously couldn't wait, because the Chen family would have to marry Chen Chen next year.

And there is a local saying that a family can't marry both a relative and a daughter within a year, and if Chen Cha gets married next year, Chen Chen can only marry the year after, it's too late.

For this reason, the Chen family chose Yunshang.

Originally, the Ma family was happy to see the Chen family choose Yunsheng, but the Ma family didn't expect that the Chen family would set their sights on Zhu Jin of the Zhu family in a blink of an eye.

At this time, Ma couldn't sit still again, and she was still thinking about marrying Yan Tong to Zhu Jin, because Zhu's sister-in-law had revealed this meaning, but she didn't make it clear.

For this reason, Ma came to Yan Yan for an idea.

And when Yan Yan saw that Ma came alone, he guessed that she must have begged her for something, and it was definitely inconvenient to speak in front of Yan Tong.

"This is Mrs. Chen from Jinyang Mansion, you also came to see our Yan'er, I thank you for our Yan'er." Ma greeted Mrs. Chen happily first, and then reached out to support Yan Yan.

"Mrs. Yan is ashamed to say thank you, the little girl has come to bother the county lord these days, I, as a mother, came over to say annoyance, I didn't expect to meet Mrs. Yan so coincidentally, Mrs. Yan has always been good?" Mrs. Chen also replied with a smile.

Ma, who was originally happy, heard the word "county lord" shouted by Mrs. Chen, his eyebrows moved slightly, and then when he heard that Chen Chen had been running to Mingyuan all these days, he felt even more like he had blocked something, which was very unhappy.

Yan Yu said before that Yan Yan and a Zhou girl were close to each other, and the Zhou girl even made Yan Yu speechless several times for Yan Yan, so it was easy for the Zhou girl to have an accident, it was only a few days, why did a Chen family girl run out again?

This child is too, how can he become a different person when he gets married? These younger brothers and sisters in their own family don't hurt, why do they hurt these outsiders?

Unhappy is not happy, Ma's cultivation is still there, and soon she adjusted her mood and greeted the other party's child, "Ling Lang's family affairs have been decided, Mrs. Chen should take care of Ling Yan's family affairs, but do you have eyebrows?" ”

Mrs. Chen is not stupid, and when she heard this, she hurriedly smiled: "It's not time to worry about it, but Mrs. Yan also knows that I have only been back in the capital for a few days, how can there be a few acquaintances?" I wonder if Mrs. Yan has any good advice? ”

"What good advice can I have, no, the third child of my family is not small, and it is time to say goodbye, I am also worried, it is a coincidence, there are a lot of marriageable boudoir women in the capital, but there are not many suitable men."

What Ma said was the truth, at least Yan Yan knew that Wu Xu, Meng Jing, Xu Ruqing and others were all fourteen or fifteen years old, so they shouldn't all say goodbye.

As for the men of the right age, Yan Yan doesn't know much, she only knows one Zhu Jin, it seems that there is another one in the Ma family, and the rest are those civil official families, among which the more outstanding one is Xu Yu, and the others are Wu Xi, Qian Zhishu and others.

With Yan Tong's conditions, the Ma family's first choice should be the Zhu family or the Xu family, so it happened to collide with Chen Chen.

I'm afraid that Mrs. Wu also takes a fancy to these two families, after all, Wu Yu is not the eldest daughter, and there is no son of the right age to choose from in these families.

Thinking of this, Yan Yan guessed a little bit of Ma's intention, but she didn't understand, and she couldn't help with this kind of thing.

was secretly thinking about which of these girls had a better chance of winning, Mrs. Chen got up to say goodbye, she also guessed that Ma's coming to Yan Yan must be something to say, and it was inconvenient for her to stay as an outsider.

Sending Mrs. Chen away, Ma pulled Yan Yan on the kang and asked Mrs. Chen about her intentions, Yan Yan couldn't tell the truth, only said that the other party was annoyed, and he was afraid that Ma would not believe it, and he told Zhou Lutuo Jinyang Mansion about buying the formula.

Ma obviously heard about Zhou Lu and his people, but she didn't know about Zhou Lu's purchase of the formula, so she suddenly heard that Yan Yan sold the formula to an outsider, and she couldn't help but be a little angry, because she didn't think about this cake recipe for a day or two.

"Auntie, I have an agreement with him, after the recipe is sold to him, he can only open a shop in the city north of the Yellow River, which will not affect my business, and the relatively expensive dim sum such as cake is not something that ordinary people can afford, so I only plan to open branches in Jinling, Yangzhou, Hangzhou and other rich places in the south of the Yangtze River in the future." Yan Yan explained, and at the same time blocked Ma's mouth.

She didn't want to be taken advantage of by the other party, and she also wanted to buy her recipe to open a shop south of the Yangtze River.

Ma really didn't have this idea for a while, she didn't have the ability and connections, and at the moment, the most important thing for her was Yan Tong's family affairs and Yan Yu's birth problem.

"That's it, you are also married, my aunt knows that you are a capable and thoughtful person, you can make your own decisions about these things, my aunt came to you today for your third sister's relatives." Ma knew that he was suspicious, so he hurriedly changed the subject.

Yan Yan couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw that Ma Shiguo had won Zhu Jin, the main reason was that Yan Tong's personality was simple and had no scheming, and Zhu Jin was not a responsible and successful man, coupled with his crooked thoughts, Yan Yan always felt that Yan Tong would not be happy if he married him.

It's just that how to persuade Ma has become a problem.
