044 Argue with reason

The eldest lady tugged at her husband's sleeve and cried and begged, "Let Sister Jing marry!" Master, let Sister Jing marry over, and I will give her all the dowry I bought for Sister Zhu! ”

"You!" When the eldest lord heard her say this, he was very angry. "You think it's a fire pit, don't let Sister Zhu go, but I'm willing to let Sister Jing go! What a kind housewife! ”

As soon as the words came out, the eldest lady didn't plan to turn back, she wiped away her tears, and then said: "Master, if Sister Jing marries, we will still be in-laws with Shangshufu." After this matter is settled, Sister Zhu is a concubine after all, isn't it easier to find a good family affair than Sister Jing'er? ”

The eldest lord also came back at this time, he thought about it carefully, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he went to Aunt Zhang's yard to talk to her in the evening.

This Aunt Zhang is also a wonderful person, she saw that the eldest lady had a son and a daughter, and she only had Du Mingjing, so she was careful and obedient to the eldest lady on weekdays, and she did what she liked to the eldest lady. Although it is not as beautiful as Aunt Liu in the past, she is the person in the heart of the eldest master.

The pillow wind blew overnight, and early the next morning, the eldest master immediately invited the second master to the study.

"Tell Sister Shu'er to marry?" The second master was a little stunned for a while, "Sister Shu is only twelve, and she is too young at this age." ”

"It's not like marrying to get married!" The eldest lord said disapprerovingly, "Li Ling is sick like that, even if he rushes to Xilishi, he will be fine, I am afraid that he will have to raise it for a year and a half." ”

"This ......" The second old man is confused, but he is not stupid, the eldest brother has a concubine in his house, but he wants to take his daughter who is less than a year old out of the tank, isn't it eccentricity?

"At that time, you will be the serious father-in-law of Shangshu Mansion!" The eldest lord patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Sister Xin'er won't talk about it, it's no better to marry Huiningbo Mansion." A talent like Sister Yan'er is not worried about getting married. Sister Shu'er is not a concubine, but she is not outstanding, and she can get such a family thing, which is a blessing from her previous life! ”

The second master thought about it, but he let go so easily, and it seemed that he was too easy to talk. He hesitated and said, "Then the eldest brother will go and talk to Shangshufu, if his family agrees to let Sister Shu'er marry, I still have something to say to them." "At least I have to get myself a half-official position!

"Okay, good, that's as it should be!" When the eldest lord saw that he agreed, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly called the eldest lady to go to Li's house to reply.

When this matter spread all over the Du Mansion, Aunt Geng and Du Mingshu found out. The two of them hugged their heads and cried, and their sad appearance was the same as yesterday's eldest wife and Du Mingzhu.

"Girl, why is your life so miserable...... Why did you give birth to it in my belly......" Aunt Geng cried with tears in her eyes, and trembled her hands to wipe her daughter's tears, but the more she wiped them.

"Auntie," Du Mingshu gritted her teeth and stopped crying, "You think about the good, but if I am in Shangshu Mansion for a day, who in this family will dare to underestimate you and snub you?" Even if I was a widow in the past, as long as I clean myself and earn a reputation for chastity for the Li family, how could his family treat me badly? ”

Aunt Geng saw that her daughter was so sensible and filial, and her heart was even more heartbroken.

"Sister, that's wrong!" Du Mingxin walked in, "Auntie only hopes that you can live well, if it is the honor you get in exchange for a lifetime, do you want it?" ”

Aunt Geng nodded desperately, crying and said, "Girl, as long as you live well, even if I am trampled in the mud every day, I will be happy in my heart!" ”

Du Mingshu sat on the chair dejectedly and looked at Du Mingxin distractedly: "Second sister, then what do you say I should do?" ”

Du Mingxin touched the bun on her head and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be afraid, there is me!" I'm going to go to my uncle and father and say, it's a big deal, bring out your uncle! ”

Aunt Geng grabbed driftwood like a drowning person, got up and knelt down to Du Mingxin: "The second girl's great kindness, the slave will never forget it in this life!" I will burn incense and pray for you every day in the future, and ask the Buddha to ......"

Du Mingxin pulled her up and said with a smile: "Auntie, don't be like this, it's just a gesture for me." ”

Du Mingxin was full of words at this time, but it didn't work when he got to the two masters of Du Mansion: "Sister Xin, where is your share in the marriage of the sisters in the family?" Don't hurry back to your room! ”

The eldest man also said: "Let Sister Shu'er marry in the past is also to fulfill the reputation of your sisters, do you say that it is good to repent of the marriage temporarily?" ”

Du Mingxin sneered: "Then why didn't the eldest uncle just marry Sister Zhu?" This was originally her marriage, so stealing beams and changing pillars, is it really blind that everyone else? You're just a soft pinch of persimmons! ”

"Nonsense!" Seeing that his daughter's words were so disrespectful, the second master hurriedly scolded, "When will you have room to speak?" Get out of here! ”

Du Ming said coldly: "Since my father said that there is no room for me to speak, then I will invite my uncle to come over." After all, the Shen family is also Sister Shu'er's foreign family, and the serious uncle came to make decisions for his niece, so what he said always has some weight, right? ”

When the second master heard her carry Shen Yao out, his courage weakened by three points. But the eldest man didn't eat this: "Sister Xin, you grew up in the deep boudoir, how do you know these twists and turns in the officialdom?" Do you think your uncle is the Duke of Xingguo, a celebrity in front of the emperor, but over there is a book of households! If your uncle wants to lead the troops to fight, he would rather offend the military department than the household department! When the time comes, there will be no food and grass, and it will be useless for him to have three heads and six arms! ”

"You!" Du Mingxin was so angry that he said for a long time, "Uncle, you are calculating your niece's marriage like this, selling your daughter for glory, but what did you do?" ”

With a "snap", the eldest lord slapped Du Mingxin's face, "Don't respect the elders, don't be filial, if you say this, the Duke of Xingguo won't be able to protect you!" ”

Du Mingxin covered his red cheeks, looked at the eldest master, and then looked at his father, who was shimping but didn't say a word after all, and said stubbornly: "Then I'll ask the eldest uncle, why did Du Mingzhu's marriage fall on the cousin in the next room?" Even if you are an elder, you should convince people with reason and morality. If you can't tell me one or two, no matter how many beatings I get, I'll have to dwell on them to the end! ”

"Stubborn, I don't know what to say!" The eldest lord scolded hatefully, and suddenly there was a commotion outside.

"Where's the minions out there?" The eldest lord was furious, threw the curtain and went out to scold, "Are you all dead? What's the noise? ”

A little guy quickly ran to him and knelt down, and said breathlessly: "Return, return to the master, there are two teams of honor guards outside, and there is a eunuch who claims to be the prince of the Qianqing Palace, and he came to our house with a holy decree!" ”
