"Is the sixteenth show a prodigy?" The old man held his head high: "My grandson won Xiucai in the fifteenth, the eighteenth middle lift, and the twentyth is the Jinshi and his younger brother, and now it is a county order." That Chen Wentao, he is sixteen years old, but now he has three out of thirty, why is he still just a showman? ”

As soon as the old man said this, the matchmaker's face was a little ugly, and he reluctantly smiled: "Your grandson, who doesn't know Master Bai?" How many Wenqu stars like him can there be? ”

Seeing that Old Man Bai smiled, she said: "Uncle Chen has also been affected by the family, and this has been delayed until now, if the girl from your mansion enters the door and helps him take care of the housework, he will definitely be able to be promoted this time, and it will be just around the corner when the middle jinshi becomes a senior official in the future." ”

Pulling the corners of his mouth, the old man asked again: "Say, how much property does this Chen family have, since you ask to marry our girl, you can't let our girl suffer!" Is he affected by his family? Isn't the family too poor? There is no one for him to read? ”

"That's not it," the matchmaker didn't mean to hide it, and said with a smile: "Isn't this his three sons, who are pulling the children and don't have the time and energy to work hard?" ”

"What? Three sons? He has a son, and he wants to marry our girl? The old man's eyes widened and he slapped the table directly.

The matchmaker was also surprised: "Don't you know, old man?" Uncle Chen died of his wife a few years ago, and now this is a marriage continuation! Your girl should have known about this? ”

"Lotus!" Old Man Bai pulled his face and scolded in front of the matchmaker: "Do you want to marry someone and want to go crazy?" Actually marry a widower with three sons? Just like you, can you go and be a stepmother? ”

"I—What's wrong with me? Why can't I be a stepmother? Me, I...... The kitchen is down, the flowers are embroidered, the clothes are cut, what work can't be done? Why can't you feed your children well? ”

"Still raising children? You don't even ...... your own."

"Old man......" Li Shi hurriedly interrupted Old Man Bai, for fear that he would say something unpleasant.

"I know Wen Tao's affairs, yes, he has three sons, but it's not entirely a bad thing, which family doesn't have more sons and the more prosperous? Lotus married and took good care of the children, and the children will be filial to her in the future. ”

Old Man Bai didn't speak with a cold face, and the matchmaker had already said with a smile: "It's not, it's nothing if you are born or not, and you don't have a big grace!" Besides, your girl is not a yellow flower girl, isn't she also married and had children? If the uncle of the Chen family doesn't dislike it, then you shouldn't dislike it either! ”

Before getting married, naturally both parties will inquire about each other's details, but if it weren't for Old Man Bai, she wouldn't be a matchmaker who would reveal each other's old secrets like this.

Listening to what the matchmaker said, the White Lotus couldn't be erased, but she didn't blame the matchmaker, but blamed her own father for the fault.

"Dad, why can't you see me? Finally, I have a good family business, as soon as I get married, I am a talented lady, and when the official is promoted to become an official, I am also the official's wife, this is a good thing, why don't you be happy for me and still be so sideways and vertical? ”

Old Man Bai felt that he was being faced, so he immediately pulled down his face and said in a deep voice: "Who do you like to marry, and I still stop you from enjoying your happiness?" I don't have anything to say about this family business, she is happy with herself, so that's it......"

As he spoke, he raised his feet and left, but the matchmaker said in a hurry: "Don't go, old lady, the marriage is decided, then let's talk about the dowry and dowry!" ”

Frowning, Old Man Bai said in a deep voice: "What are you talking to me?" This dowry is not uncommon for me, it is all received by her and her mother, and you can also discuss the dowry with their mothers. ”

The matchmaker immediately turned his face to look at Li's mother and daughter: "Big girl......"

White Lotus raised her eyebrows: "Dad, you are my father, and now that I am married to a good family, you treat me like this?" ”

Old Man Bai said impatiently: "You are not the first time to marry, I gave you a dowry before." ”

"How can it be the same? How poor our family used to be, how rich is it now? Just look at this big yard, the new yard behind it, not to mention our tunzi, it is the one that can be counted in Heishui County. ”

Zhu, who had been silent on the side, frowned, glanced at the white lotus with cold eyes, and then looked at the old man Bai.

What does this family have to do with the two of them? If the old man is confused and agrees to something, she is not confused, and she has to quarrel.

Zhu was really afraid that Old Man Bai would be confused, but fortunately, the old man was really not stupid at this time, so he said directly: "You are in love with your eldest brother's family?" It's a pity, you are not your eldest brother's daughter, but my daughter, your father and I have no long things now, and I rely on your eldest brother to support me, where will I get the money to give you a dowry? I have to let you, my daughter, raise me as a father! ”

"Where is that? Whose family is not a son to support the elderly, why should I be supported by a daughter who is married outside? The white lotus shouted out first, and only when she saw the sneer on the white old man's face did she turn her face a little awkwardly.

But soon, she said forcefully: "What about Xu Wenlan? She had promised to buy me a dowry! Where is she? Get her out! ”

shouted, she rushed out, and the Zhu family hurriedly asked people to stop her: "Wen Lan is not here, besides, when did she promise you a dowry?" It's not that you are too fierce, she coaxed you out, and let you catch a hairpin for nothing, which is already cheap for you. ”

When the matchmaker heard this, his face changed, and he hesitated and pulled down Li's: "Is there any dowry for this?" Uncle Chen agreed to this marriage in front of Lord Bai, but your girl said that there would be a rich dowry, if not, then this marriage can be said twice......"

Li Shi changed color: "Yes, the eldest daughter-in-law, your family is so rich, and Wen Lan is even more rich, why bother with poor people like us!" Even if we are asking for food, we will give some! ”

Zhu Shi had a cold face and was silent.

The matchmaker felt even more unreliable when he heard Li speak like this, so he turned around and left without speaking.

White Lotus was anxious, and hurriedly chased after someone and said hurriedly: "Is there really a dowry, I am the aunt of the county magistrate, will I still lie to you?" ”

"The aunt of the prefectural magistrate?" The matchmaker smiled: "I don't think Lord Bai takes you too seriously...... Okay, okay, girl, don't talk to me, so let's go, I won't go to the Chen family to spread the word first, if you really have a dowry, let people talk to me, let's talk about it......"

White Lotus breathed a sigh of relief, and when the people left, they made trouble with the Zhu family.

Zhu was also angry: "Do you want to be shameless, there are still people who rush to marry and become stepmothers?" You want to get married and want to go crazy, right? ”
