Chapter 376: Asking for Marriage
As soon as Mrs. Wei's words came out, Sanniang's heart was naturally mixed. Wei Yue'e looked at Yingge with a smile, as if she was thinking.
Sanniang thought for a while, and asked with a puzzled face: "The lady in charge?" "So the man is not a slave?
Mrs. Wei nodded: "If it's not good, I won't open this mouth." I brought Mama Tang from my mother's house, and her brothers and sisters-in-law were all used by my uncle and aunt. Her nephew was born out of slavery, and he didn't want to be good at doing business when he grew up, because of the background of the Marquis of Wuding, it has been more and more smooth sailing in recent years, and there are already several shops. It's just that I've been going south and north all these years, and the marriage event has been delayed, and now I'm over twenty years old and unmarried. ”
Sanniang pondered while listening, Mrs. Wei's aunt and aunt Wu Dinghou and his wife were also the parents of Prince and Princess Li. has a good reputation outside, and can be valued by them, Mama Tang's brother and sister-in-law must have some ability. The man sounded like a capable man, too.
Such a family, if it is in the eyes of ordinary maids, is naturally a good family affair that can be met but not sought. It's no wonder that Mrs. Wei knew that Yingge was the Zhao family's maid to Yue'e, so she would open this mouth. In the eyes of everyone, Yingge is a high climb.
However, Yingge is different from other maids. So it's hard to say whether she can be satisfied with this family business.
"Speaking of which, it's not that the maids around me are not unavailable, but Mama Tang just likes Yingge." Mrs. Wei smiled, "Originally, those maids around me were brought out by Mama Tang, and I didn't want her to dislike herself." However, Yingge's girl is indeed a good one, and I like it very much. If you have no opinion, let the song go out. I gave Yue'e the jade beads beside me and asked her to enter the palace with Yue'e. ”
Wei Yue'e's eyes flashed when she heard this, and she looked at a green-clothed maid standing respectfully behind Mrs. Wei. Sanniang looked over and saw that the maid had a calm temperament, and she had the bearing of a maid who came out of everyone, but her face was a little ordinary. Presumably this is also the reason why Mama Tang didn't take a fancy to her. To be honest, if you are a maid. This one called Yuzhu is more suitable than Yingge.
"Yuzhu is the person sent to me by my aunt the year before last, and she is a top capable, and she will not be wronged by Yue'e." Speaking of Yuzhu, Mrs. Wei is very confident.
Is this maid from the Marquis of Wuding? That's really more background than Yingge, who was born in Zhao Mansion.
Sanniang glanced at Wei Yue. Seeing that she was a little moved, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. looked at Yingge again, but saw that she was looking at herself. There was no sadness, resentment, or reluctance in his eyes. There is some confusion and confusion.
Sanniang couldn't help but speak: "This nephew of Mama Tang is still unmarried at this age, and there must be no shortage of people around him to ask for warmth, right?" ”
Mrs. Wei was stunned, she didn't expect Sanniang to ask about this. Even if Yingge is a useful maid, it is just a maid. It's already a great favor for them to be able to find such a good future for her, where do they care about this?
Even Wei Yue'e looked at Sanniang a little strangely, she, the master, hadn't spoken yet.
Although Mrs. Wei was a little puzzled in her heart. But he didn't take it too seriously, thought about it and replied: "It seems that I heard that his parents bought him a maid to serve him." Later, the house was collected. ”
When Sanniang heard this, she felt a little embarrassed in her heart.
Wei Yue'e thought for a while and said to Mrs. Wei: "I don't understand this kind of thing, just leave it to your mother." "No matter how Yingge is, she is just a maid. Although her grandmother chose it for her, she just wanted her to have a help, but this help was not necessary for her.
Sanniang said with a smile: "It's better to ask Yingge himself about this matter." ”
Wei Yue'e frowned: "She is my maid, and marrying is naturally determined by the master's family." At this time, Wei Yue'e has a little bit of the shadow of a few years ago.
Sanniang ignored her, only looked at Mrs. Wei and said with a smile: "As far as I know, Yingge's identity is still a little special." ”
Yingge's body trembled when she heard this, and she looked up at Sanniang suddenly.
"Oh? What's so special? Mrs. Wei asked curiously.
Sanniang tilted her head as if thinking: "I remember that Yingge's biological mother Furao was originally a big girl next to my mother, and later married a trader outside, because Furao has been serving by my mother's side since she was a child and has followed my mother for many years." My mother removed her from slavery just before she got married. So speaking of which...... Yingge shouldn't be considered a slave background, right? ”
It's not easy to get rid of the slave status of the maid, and the Zhao family may have just wanted to give their daughter a less humble identity when they did this.
Wei Yue'e was stunned when she heard this, she only knew that the Liu family gave her Yingge, and she didn't pay attention to the deed or anything like that.
Mrs. Wei didn't expect this to be the case, but she heard that Yingge's biological mother was the most powerful big maid next to Sanniang's mother, which made her think that it was no wonder that Sanniang would take Yingge's maid so seriously. It turned out to be for the sake of Zhao's face.
So she didn't want to be so-so about this matter.
"Yingge, is this what Sanniang said?" Mrs. Wei asked the parties.
Yingge took a deep breath, and when she raised her head, her face was calm: "You are, madam, slaves are not slaves. It's just that she grew up in Zhao's Mansion as a maid since she was a child, and Mama Zeng is also a mama next to the old lady, and her mother is also a maid of the Zhao family. So people ignore this problem.
Mrs. Wei smiled and said to Wei Yue: "Since this is the case, then we really can't help Yingge make the decision, and we have to ask Yingge what she means." Saying that, Mrs. Wei looked at Yingge and smiled: "Yingge, now is not the time for you to be shy, you attack and tell me to see if you are willing to marry Mama Tang's nephew, or continue to stay by Yue'e's side?" ”
Sanniang kept looking at Yingge, naturally she saw Yingge's eyelashes twitch after hearing Mrs. Wei's words, she looked at Sanniang, her eyes were sad and joyful: "I, slave maid ......"
Everyone in the room looked at Yingge, so that she had no way to continue the conversation. Mrs. Wei seemed to understand, which made Yingge a little embarrassed, so she smiled and said, "Okay, speaking of which, this matter is a lifelong event, and I can't be in a hurry." Yingge, you better think about it, and come back to tell me later? ”
Yingge breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this: "Thank you, madam, slave." ”
Mrs. Wei nodded, put the matter aside for the time being, and chatted with Sanniang and Wei Yue'e about other topics. During this period, Yingge walked out under the pretext of an excuse.
Until Wei Yue'e said: "I'll go to see Yun Ying, why hasn't she returned for so long?" Even if you catch a pearl in the sea, you must have already fished it. Wei Yue'e joked to Mrs. Wei.
Mrs. Wei shook her head and laughed when she heard this: "You are naughty." Let's take a look, if you still can't find it, then you can only give up for the time being, Sanniang is still a guest in our house. Don't lose sight of one or the other, and forget the point. ”
Wei Yue'e went with a smile, and Sanniang chatted with Mrs. Wei for a few words and said, "I want to go and change clothes." ”
Mrs. Wei let the jade bead behind her lead Sanniang, but Sanniang nugged her chin, pointed to Yingge, who had just entered the door, and said to Mrs. Wei: "Yuzhu should stay and serve Mrs., I will temporarily borrow the people around Yue'e to use it." ”
Mrs. Wei gave up.
Sanniang and Yingge walked out of the main room, and neither of them spoke along the way. It wasn't until she arrived at the clean room that Sanniang instructed Bai Yingdao: "Guard all the doors, don't let people accidentally break in." It's good for Yingge to stay. ”
Bai Ying glanced at Yingge when she heard this, and then retreated with the rest of the maids.
For a while, only Sanniang and Yingge were left in the clean room.
Sanniang looked at Yingge carefully, and Yingge also raised her head at this time and looked at Sanniang seriously. The two just looked at each other, and neither of them spoke.
Until I heard outside, I don't know which maid accidentally put the tea tray on the table, because of an unstable one, the teacup on the tea tray made a bumping sound of "Ding Ling", and then Bai Ying whispered a few words to the maid.
The movement outside finally broke the silence in the room, and Sanniang looked at Yingge and said, "Are you willing to marry Mama Tang's nephew?" ”
Yingge looked away and lowered her head slightly: "Would I like to be heavy?" Although I didn't really become a slave, I was always a maid by Miss Yue'e's side. How can you go against the will of the Lord's house? And today's marriage is my climbing. ”
Although Yingge didn't look at Sanniang when she said this, her voice was soft, and her tone was very soft, and she couldn't hear any dissatisfaction or resentment in her voice.
Sanniang thought for a while: "If you don't want to, I can always help you think of something." ”
Hearing this, Yingge suddenly raised her head and looked at Sanniang, her eyes were sad and joyful: "Don't you think this family affair is my Gao Pan?" ”
Sanniang shook her head and said seriously: "I don't think, I just think you can be worthy of the best man at this time." ”
Yingge's eyes were slightly red, and she murmured, "Is the best man in the world?" ”
Sanniang tilted her head and thought for a while: "The best in this world is naturally judged by the person concerned." So it doesn't matter about status, you have to be happy with yourself first. ”
Yingge listened stunned, and finally said firmly and clearly: "Then, I don't want to." ”
Sanniang didn't seem surprised, she only nodded calmly and gently: "I know, I'll tell Mrs. Wei, you don't have to worry." ”
Yingge said, "Don't you ask me why I don't want to? ”
Sanniang thought for a while: "He is not worthy of you, and there is a maid who has been with him for an unknown amount of time, and it is normal for you to be unhappy, so there is nothing strange about this." Sanniang said naturally.
Yingge didn't expect Sanniang to say this, she was stunned and shook her head: "I didn't mean that." (To be continued)
