Chapter 689: Good Things Come in Pairs
Zhong Xiu had seen Xue Zhen, but Xing Zhong had seen him for the first time. When he saw that the people in the Xue Er family were all good people with good conduct and good looks, Xing Zhong made up his mind in his heart.
After returning from the funeral, Xing Zhong asked his sister about Xue Zhen. After only asking a sentence or two, Xing Shuang understood what Xing Zhong meant.
Only Xing Zhong and Zhong Xiu were in the house, so Xing Shuang didn't hide it, and asked Xing Zhong straight to the point: "Have you taken a fancy to that child?" ”
Xing Zhong said with a smile: "It's hard to say what you can't look at, it's just that at his age, he can take on the heavy responsibilities of the family, but he is a responsible person." ”
Xing Shuang asked him with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that Yan'er will marry and endure hardships?" You must know that his family is now depressed. ”
Xing Zhong said: "No matter what, as long as he is down-to-earth, there will always be a comeback." Besides, I heard that his father used to trade in rare and exotic goods, and he followed his father to the business, so he must still have a relationship.
"Now it's just to treat his father's illness and spend all his belongings, but as long as he gives him some capital, he must be able to pick up this business again."
Zhong Xiu also said: "These are not big deals, I see that he is kind and flexible, that is, he doesn't pick up the business, and he doesn't care." Do everything, he will not live his life to death. ”
Xing Shuang admired Zhong Xiu's eyes on people, and said to her with a smile: "You still know people with your eyes, and I also look at him well, so I let the little ones in the family help him everywhere."
"It's just that his father is gone, and he can't talk about marriage now, so as not to be criticized. It's okay to talk to Mrs. Zhang first, so that everyone knows it, so as not to miss it by mistake. ”
Zhong Xiu smiled: "With my sister's words, I am relieved." My sister has always come to see people very accurately, so I will go and explain to Mrs. Zhang tomorrow. ”
The matter between Xing Xiuyan and Xue Zhen was thus done.
Xing Shuang heard that Zhong Xiu and the Zhang family had reached a verbal agreement, and before the joy was over, a few days later there was a surprise.
On this day, Xiaohong came to run errands for Wang Xifeng, and was walking to the Yongdao, when she saw a young man standing at the door talking to someone.
She glanced curiously when she passed by, and saw that it was Jia Yun who was busy and said, "Second Master Yun is good." ”
Jia Yun turned around, and when she saw Xiaohong, she was stunned.
To say that this marriage is really wonderful, originally one of the two was a little maid in Yihong Courtyard, and there was an attacker Qingwen who couldn't get out, and the other was a child of a side branch who was from a poor family, and he was still asking people to find a relationship and find a living errand.
This two people walking together can only be said to be a coincidence.
But now the fates of these two people are completely different, but they still bumped into each other by mistake.
Xiaohong has seen Jia Yun a few times, she has been serving Daiyu, but she is just a second-class maid and cannot enter the house to serve. But when I followed the girl to my wife, I also saw Jia Yun from a distance on the porch.
Jia Yun saw Xiaohong for the first time, and she was shocked at this glance and couldn't forget it.
In the book, Jia Yun borrowed a handkerchief and secretly flirted with her. Here he didn't have to hide anything at all, after saying hello, he watched Xiaohong enter the second gate, and asked the little guy next to him who it was.
Xiao Wu smiled and said: "The second master has never seen her, her name is Xiaohong, and she is the daughter of Lin Zhixiao, the chief housekeeper of the capital family." was originally to serve Miss Lin, but later because of the lack of manpower of the eldest grandmother, she was transferred from the capital.
Now under the hands of the eldest grandmother, she is the number one, no worse than the original Ping girl. Even the eldest grandmother can't leave her, and she has to go out in person for many things. ”
When Jia Yun heard that she was an aunt, she knew who to talk to. After reporting the finances to his uncle, he went to Wang Xifeng to ask for peace.
Wang Xifeng heard that Jia Yun was coming, and only said strangely, listening to Jia Yun asking An to say hello for a long time, and didn't mention anything else, he asked anxiously: "You have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, what is the matter, don't say it directly, and then beat around the bush, beware of me driving you out." ”
Jia Yun laughed and said, "It's worthy of being an aunt, no matter how good your nephew is, he can't hide it from you." ”
Wang Xifeng said: "Say it quickly, don't be sloppy with me, wait for your uncle to come back, see you like this, see if he doesn't beat you." ”
Jia Yun no longer concealed it, and said to Wang Xifeng: "I'm not afraid of aunt jokes, I should have gotten married now, but I have been busy with things and have no clue, my mother has urged me for a few years, and I don't have any ideas." Now that I can't get married again, my mother is going to come to my uncle. ”
Wang Xifeng suddenly understood, glanced at him, and sneered: "Don't be the one who has taken a fancy to me, which one is it?" Ping'er is now a serious official lady, if you ask her, go to Zhou's house to beg, I won't be this matchmaker. ”
Jia Yun shook it and said with a smile: "Miss Ping'er is the heart and soul of the aunt, and the nephew has the courage of the bear-hearted leopard, and he doesn't dare to beat her idea." ”
Wang Xifeng raised his eyebrows, who can he be if his heart is not Ping'er? In terms of age, Jia Yun and Ping'er are the same age, and the two often meet, he is not here to ask for Ping'er, who else can he beg. Is it possible to ask for the An'er who was thrown out?
"You explain it to me." Wang Xifeng said angrily: "Who are you asking for, don't beat around the corner again." ”
Jia Yun said with a smile: "I don't ask for others, I just ask for the leader of my aunt's hand, a girl named Xiaohong." ”
Wang Xifeng was stunned, straightened up and lowered his voice and said to him: "That's a family child, have you thought clearly?" ”
Jia Yun smiled faintly: "What about the child, I look at her well, she will be good in every way." I don't dislike it, and my mother naturally doesn't dislike it.
"Besides, how much better can I be than her? If it weren't for my uncle's help to my family, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be as good as her. Although my family is getting better now, I'm not the one who has a low eye.
"She's capable, she's in my eyes, and she's the right person. I don't want anything else, just one of her. ”
Wang Xifeng was even more surprised: "You still want to marry her?" Not a concubine? ”
Jia Yun smiled again: "Why do you want to accept it, they all say that she is the best one, I want her, so naturally I want to marry." Uncle and mother-in-law beat Xiao Er to mention his life, who in our family dares to take a concubine. Naturally, according to the teachings of my uncle, I have a couple for a lifetime. ”
Wang Xifeng was speechless by what Jia Yun said, and after a long time, he came to his senses and muttered: "You kid, I don't dare to agree to such a big thing." ”
Jia Yun asked with a smile: "Why don't you dare, the person is the aunt's person, I came to beg, and the aunt only said that it was not accurate." If it is approved, I will not let her delay things in the future, and still work for my aunt on errands, these are not problems. ”
Wang Xifeng shook his head and said: "That's not the case, you want to marry a maid, let your wife know about this, I'm afraid she won't allow it." She has expectations for you and points to you to get ahead. If you insist on marrying, let's get past her first. ”
