Chapter 324: Dragon Boat Festival (I)
The fifth aunt was startled when she heard this, and looked at Eleven Niang in confusion: "Eleventh aunt and grandmother...... Did you say hello to Miss Twelve? ”
This matter has not been brushed up yet, and Eleven Niang didn't want the fifth aunt to know about it. Now the sixth aunt is crying, and she has no choice but to tell the fifth aunt what happened: "...... Seeing that the family was okay, I mentioned it to my sister-in-law. ”
"Don't you agree?" The fifth aunt listened and groaned.
Looking at the posture of the sixth aunt, the eldest lady must not agree.
It's just that before Eleven Niang answered, the sixth aunt had already said: "She bites that Miss Twelve is still young and doesn't agree to marry this family business." As she spoke, tears fell again, "The family is innocent, and he is the eldest son, and he has fame and good conduct...... Where can I find such a good marriage? said that Miss Twelve was a little younger, but who got married as soon as they talked about their family. After the three books and six ceremonies, it will take three or four years, and then the twelfth lady will also be in time, and it is the time to get married. He added, "The eldest master said, we will go back to Yuhang after the summer." Once you leave Yanjing, it will definitely be more difficult to find someone with a character and background like Wang Gongzi than to ascend to the sky. She is like this, but she dislikes Wang Gongzi is a side branch, and her family background is thin, and in the future, Miss Twelve will marry one who can't help in money and materials, and the other has no reputation. You can see the marriage of several aunts and grandmothers in our family......" As soon as the words came out, I thought that Eleven Niang was still in front of me, and I swallowed the words forcibly. But he still couldn't calm down, and complained, "Do you want to be like Aunt Ten, as long as she has a good reputation, it doesn't matter if she is dead or alive!" ”
What the sixth aunt said was also what the eleventh aunt was worried about.
Daughters are used for marriage. The family business that I said for Twelve Niang is naturally very good for Twelve Niang. But for the Luo family, there is no benefit to speak of. If you want to talk about benefits, Wang Ze is a side branch of the Wang family, how can he compare to Xu Lingyi, Marquis of Yongping, and if you want to talk about fame, Wang Ze is just a talent who works as an errand in Zhennan Houfu, how can he compare to Qian Ming, who is already a person.
But after all, she is the daughter of the cabinet, and she only has the right to make suggestions and no decisions about these things at home.
Eleven Niang hinted to the sixth aunt: "Wang Gongzi also has a younger brother, and he was selected for Xiucai at the age of twelve. Even Zhennanhou also attaches great importance to it. If it weren't for Wang Gongzi's uncle, Wang Gongzi would have married a niece of his aunt a long time ago. The sixth aunt might as well tell her father and eldest brother about this. They should have their considerations. ”
"W-is this useful?" The sixth aunt said suspiciously, "If that's the case, then it's better to say that you want to be good friends with Mrs. Zhou, so it's more certain that you want to marry Miss Twelve!" ”
Although the sixth aunt is shrewd and capable, she is limited by her life experience and considers problems relatively simply. It's hard to explain.
Eleven Niang smiled: "Sixth Aunt will talk about it according to my words first." If it doesn't work, it's not too late for me to make friends with Mrs. Zhou! ”
The sixth aunt was still a little hesitant, and the eleventh aunt smiled: "However, if this marriage is completed." There are some things I also have to remind Aunt Six. Wang Gongzi's family background is indeed thin, since he does not accept the help of the prince of Zhennan Hou, I am afraid that he will not accept the help of his wife's mother's family. His fame may end here. Such a son-in-law ......"
"Aunt Eleven." The sixth aunt said in a straight tone, "The amount of media and the amount of media is the right thing." If the prince has a solid family background, or is willing to be helped, how can the twelve young ladies of our family have such an opportunity? She looked at Eleven Niang very sincerely, "We still know this truth." ”
Eleven Niang nodded slightly when she heard this, and said with a smile: "Then we will wait for Mrs. Zhou's news." If it can be done, I am afraid that I will have to persuade my aunt to persuade Twelve Niang. ”
"Although Miss Twelfth is not as good as Aunt Eleven," Aunt Sixth said modestly, "but I still know this." Regardless of whether this thing is successful or not, our twelfth lady knows the kindness of Aunt Eleven. ”
Eleven Niang got the words of the sixth aunt, settled down, had lunch at her mother's house, and went back to the lotus.
Early the next morning, Luo Da * Milk came to visit.
"If the Wang family also means this, what else do we have to say. When the time comes, I will ask my aunt and grandmother to help me deliver a sound. ”
It seems that the Luo family has carefully considered the pros and cons of this family business.
Eleven Niang knows it. Liuluo's grandmother had lunch at home and delivered it to the Weeping Flower Gate in person.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Zhou came.
"Whether I can get my matchmaker shoes or not, it depends on what you say."
It means that the Wang family has no opinion.
It's a happy situation for all.
Eleven Niang smiled: "I'm worried about what kind of upper I will make for Sister Zhou." ”
Mrs. Zhou was overjoyed when she heard this, and sighed again: "My sister-in-law's eyes are not good, there is a lack of a host in the family, and I was worried that your twelfth sister is a little younger." Unexpectedly, my sister-in-law was worried that her family had not saved a few dollars in the past few years, and it was too shabby to get married immediately. This is really a saying that a thousand miles of marriage are linked. ”
Eleven Niang smiled and nodded, and went to Mrs. Tai with Mrs. Zhou.
Mrs. Tai was also very happy to hear this: "This is really a coincidence. Then Mrs. Zhou was left for dinner.
Mrs. Zhou smiled: "My sister-in-law is still waiting for me to reply to the letter!" I'll come back to you in two days, and I'll go to my sister-in-law's house to eat today. ”
Mrs. Tai laughed when she heard this, and did not keep her, but asked Princess Fucheng: "...... What do you do at home these days? ”
"I was disturbed by our sister Fang's quarrel, and I help our sister Fang feed the cats every day!"
"Feed the cats?"
Mrs. Zhou said with a smile: "During the Chinese New Year, my brother who served as a political envoy in Fujian sent two cats, white fur, one eye green and one eye blue. Sister Fang is very rare, lest others take care of her, so she feeds herself every day. A few days ago, I went to the palace with the princess to play, but I got a rash on my body. I haven't seen any improvement after taking medicine for more than half a month. The princess suspected that the cat hair was in trouble, and let the cat be given away. Sister Fang refused to live or die when she heard this, and the princess had no choice, so she specially pulled out two little maids to help her feed her. She still didn't feel at ease, so she ran to see it every day. The princess had to carry the cat to her yard to help feed her! ”
"And such a thing!" Mrs. Tai smiled and said, "You tell your mother-in-law, and I will open my eyes tomorrow." Look at what is a rare thing, let us Sister Fang be so fascinated. ”
Princess Fucheng is the emperor's aunt, and Mrs. Taigui is the queen's mother, although there is no contradiction between the two old people, they are not very close. Mrs. Tai suddenly wanted to go to Princess Fucheng's mansion for a cat...... Eleven Niang and Mrs. Zhou were stunned.
But Mrs. Zhou quickly reacted and said with a smile: "Oh, I've invited a rare guest!" And he said, "If you go, the princess will not know how glad she will be!" She was just looking forward to someone to walk around. Then a lot of welcome words were said.
"Then it's settled." Mrs. Tai smiled and bowed her head, and decided not to visit for the first time.
Mrs. Zhou said "yes" again and again, and got up to say goodbye.
Eleven Niang sent Mrs. Zhou to the Hanging Flower Gate and turned back to Mrs. Tai.
"You're all busy." Mrs. Tai instructed Eleven Niang, "Just go with Mother Du tomorrow." ”
As if something was going on.
Seeing that Mrs. Tai didn't want to say more, she didn't want to ask, so she smiled and went to arrange Mrs. Tai's trip.
The next day, she saw off Mrs. Tai and returned to Gongxian Hutong by herself.
The Luo family invited the fourth aunt Yu Yiqing to be the matchmaker, and the Wang family invited the Hou Shizi of Zhennan to be the matchmaker. That's all for later. After Sister Zhen found out, she pulled Eleven Niang and said with a smile: "It turns out that my mother is going to be a matchmaker!" "It happened to be a bit hot in those days, and the family had already started to cook mung bean soup. She offered a bowl to Eleven Niang, "Then do you really want to make a pair of shoes for Mrs. Zhou?" ”
"Nature is true!" Shi Niang smiled, "This is what I promised someone else!" ”
"Then, does Aunt Twelve also want to be locked up at home to do needlework like Sister Hui?"
"Not yet." Seeing that she was very curious, Eleven Niang explained, "Aunt Twelve is still young, and the two families agreed to wait for Twelfth Niang and Lu to marry later." In two years, I will be locked up at home to do needlework like Sister Hui! ”
Sister Zhen smiled when she heard this: "Then I will also help Aunt Twelve make a door curtain!" ”
She helped Sister Hui make a door curtain.
Eleven Niang looked at the smiling sister in front of her and thought of Xu Lingyi.
Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, he has no news at all, and he doesn't know how things are going? The point is that there are a lot of things that he needs to come back to decide...... Especially the marriage of Sister Zhen'er.
In the past two days, the Zhuo family will send someone to deliver this, and then send someone to deliver that, so they are not diligent.
After thinking about it, Aunt Wen came in with the account book.
Sister Zhen and Aunt Wen were opposite, both slightly unnatural.
Eleven Niang smiled and asked Aunt Wen to sit down. Sister Zhen said, "I'll serve mung bean soup", and then walked out of the inner room quickly.
Aunt Wen glanced at the flickering soft curtain, and then said to Eleven Niang: "I have cleared out all the accounts at home." The biggest expense is the kitchen ......"
Eleven Niang concentrated on the accounts with Aunt Wen.
A little maid came in and said, "The big lady of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is here!" ”
Eleven Niang hurriedly invited her in.
Lin Da*'s grandmother took a few Jinchuan fans: "It was made by Sister Hui of our family, and it was given to Sister Zhen." Then he carried a few baskets of peaches, "Knowing that you are not lacking is a little bit of my heart." If it weren't for you, how could our sister Hui settle down to do needlework. "It turned out to be a thank you gift for her.
Eleven Niang humbly let Amber accept it, and asked about Sister Hui'er's situation: "I heard that the wedding date is scheduled for May next year?" ”
Lin Da*'s eyes darkened as she spoke, and she nodded a little abruptly: "It's been urging over there!" ”
Eleven Niang was about to comfort her a few words, and the little maid said, "Mrs. Zhuo is here!" ”
"Let her in!" Eleven Niang's tone revealed a few helplessness that she didn't notice.
Lin Da*'s grandmother raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, and said in a low voice: "I heard that the Zhuo family wants to marry your family, but is there such a thing?" ”
I think everyone must have heard about it.
Eleven Niang nodded.
Lin Da*'s grandmother quipped: "Look at you like this, you have to entertain her." Could it be that the food is tasteless, and it is a pity to abandon it? ”
Eleven Niang felt that it was not good to talk about the Zhuo family in this way, and said with a smile: "It's just that Lord Zhuo has a close personal relationship with our family's Hou Ye!" ”
Where could Lin Da * grandmother not hear this unfinished meaning: "I knew this was the case, I also came to join in the fun to be a matchmaker for your sister?" ”
