Chapter 103: Twists and Turns
It stands to reason that he should be happy to receive the family letter, but at this time, Song Jiang was not happy at all, just because of the content of this family letter.
This letter was written by Song Jiang's mother-in-law, and she happily told Song Jiang that she begged the master to find a daughter-in-law for Song Jiang, but the master agreed.
Second Master Song has an extremely favored Aunt Hu, who is his twenty-fourth aunt, who is really more delicate than flowers, and weak willows help the wind.
At the age of fifteen, he was spent 12,000 taels by Song Erye, who ransomed him from the Qinglou and included him in the mansion.
Even if he accepted twelve more aunts over the years, Aunt Hu was still at the tip of his heart and obeyed his words.
That day, he came out of Song Jiang's mother-in-law, Aunt Guan's Cuilanxuan, and went straight to the Hongyi Garden of his favorite Aunt Hu.
"Master, is there anything to worry about, tell the slave family to listen, even if you can't share it with the master, but if you hold it in your heart, the slave family will worry about the master."
Seeing that Second Master Song's face was not good, Aunt Hu stepped forward slowly and said softly.
When Second Master Song saw Aunt Hu's delicate face, his mood improved, he hugged him in his arms, and whispered in his ear: "You are still sensible and know how to care about the master, if you are like those aunts, you will make trouble for the master." ”
Hu Jiao chuckled and gently pushed Song Er Ye away, "The master will make fun of the slave family, I don't know which sister provoked the master?" Can you talk to Jiao'er, maybe the slave family can still give the master an idea. ”
When Aunt Hu said about it, Second Master Song couldn't help but become anxious, and his tone became cold, "It's not that Aunt Guan, I was kind enough to see her today, but she begged me to marry her tenth young master, seeing that she cried pitifully, my lord and I agreed to it for a while, now that I think about it, it seems that I agreed too quickly, it must have been this slut who gave me ecstasy soup, otherwise how could I agree." ”
Aunt Guan? Under Ecstasy Soup? The woman who would only hide in the house to do rusty work in exchange for some silver subsidies, with a bitter melon on her face, was more blessed than herself, and gave birth to a good son, I heard that she was a head catcher in Anxian County.
For Song Jiang, the tenth son of the master, she still knows, when she entered the mansion, she was only fifteen years old, Song Jiang is two years younger than her, and she has seen it occasionally, but he is a handsome man.
It's just that there are not many times in the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard in these years, but I didn't expect to get married yet, and they are twenty-three this year, and I don't know what they look like now, but it will definitely not be too bad.
Looking at the old man's angry and corrupt appearance, she knew that this was the old man's repentance and making excuses for herself, Aunt Hu knew this.
"Master, what kind of great event should I be, isn't it just to marry a daughter-in-law for the tenth young master? What's so difficult about this, a few days ago, my family handed me a message and asked me to show my cousin a suitable one. I'm still worried, every day in the house, there is no chance to meet a young man from any family, this is not the fate of God, one asks to marry, one wants to marry, why not the beauty of adults, contribute to this pair of beautiful people, but also thank the lord for their kindness. ”
Hu Jiaoer is a smart person, and at the age of the master, it is impossible to want a child again.
In this deep house compound, the aunt who has no children is like the duckweed on the water, without roots.
Now it seems to be beautiful, but when the old man is gone, these childless aunts will be sold by the master mother again, or die of old age, and there will be no future.
She is only twenty-five, she must plan for the future, take a closer look at these sons of the master, in addition to the descendants and the underage, at present, this tenth son Song Jiang is the most promising, if she can become a relative with Song Jiang, when the master is gone, can you also take advantage of this to be treated differently.
She doesn't want to be sold to be an old mother, she doesn't talk about brocade clothes and jade food in the Song Mansion in the past ten years, but it's almost the same, and she can no longer eat the suffering she suffered when she was young.
Hearing Aunt Hu's rhetoric, Second Master Song stroked his palms and was happy, "It's not a loss to my most cherished Jiao'er, and I solved the problem for my lord in just a few words, but let me ask you, how does your cousin look?" ”
Aunt Hu glanced at him charmingly, and in the master's heart, the most important thing is always the woman's appearance.
"Master, look at how Jiao'er looks, my cousin is three points better than Jiao'er, otherwise I wouldn't dare to match this family business to the tenth young master."
That cousin has seen it, and it is an exaggeration to say that she looks the same as she did back then, but to say that she won by three points.
"Jiao'er, that's not as good as ......"
Before Song Erye finished speaking, Hu Jiaoer understood the master's thoughts, this is because she heard that she is good-looking, and she has a lustful heart.
"Master, my cousin is not a slave family, she is an innocent woman from a good family, she has long said that she would rather be a poor wife than a noble concubine, otherwise why is she sixteen and has not yet married!"
Why would you rather be a poor wife than a noble concubine, in Hu Jiaoer's eyes, that is, the eyes are higher than the top.
My uncle's family is not very capable, and I usually have to help myself, my cousin is born beautiful, but I want to be a real lady, and the big family looks down on it, only the beauty is not showy, the small family, the cousin looks down on it, saying that the family is small, and the life is delayed until the age of sixteen, and the family has not yet been decided.
Now that I'm older, I'm starting to get anxious, and I'm entrusting all the relationships to her.
said that he didn't care about the man's family background, as long as he was decent.
She knew her cousin's character, and she didn't want to pay attention to it, but Song Jiang was different, she was a concubine of the Song Mansion, and she was the head catcher of Anxian County, and she was connected to this family, her cousin would definitely be grateful to her, and the benefits in the future would naturally not be missing her.
"Oh! That's cheaper for my son. ”
Second Master Song looked lonely, and after thinking about it, if you marry your son, won't you have a chance to see it in the future, but it's not so repulsive.
In this way, Song Jiang's marriage was given by Song Erye in a daze, and he told Aunt Guan to send a letter to Song Jiang and ask him to come back and see the girl.
When Aunt Guan heard the news, she was overjoyed, her son's marriage was finally settled, and she hurriedly found someone to send a letter to Song Jiang, which also clearly stated that he would come back to see the woman and plan to marry him this year.
Song Jiang was completely stunned when he received this letter, why did he set a marriage for himself, not to mention that he had never seen that woman, would he agree, what should Du Jun do here?
After thinking about it for two days, he didn't come up with a good idea, so he had to ask Zhou County for leave and go back to Mingyuan to solve this matter.
It's such a coincidence, the day he returned to Mingyuan was also the day Du Jun left Mingyuan, and the two even passed by on the official road.
When Song Jiang returned to the Song Mansion, Du Jun's Geng post was placed at the head of Aunt Guan's bed, and Aunt Guan was sick and was scolded by Song Erye, and she was scared to get sick.
